Indemnification Reference is made to Article VIII of Registrant's Agreement and Declaration of Trust (filed as an exhibit to Post-Effective Amendment No. 7 filed electronically on November 9, 1995). The application of these provisions is limited by Article 10 of Registrant's By-Laws (filed as Exhibit 2 to Registrant's Post-Effective Amendment No. 7 filed electronically on November 9, 1995, accession number 0000950130-95-002359 and incorporated herein by reference) and by the following undertaking set forth in the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission: Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, C-2 officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in such Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. Reference also is made to the Distribution Agreement previously filed as an exhibit to Post-Effective Amendment No. 20 to the Registration Statement on Form N-1A filed electronically on July 28, 1998.
