annually, to determine whether the
purchases were influenced by the
investment by the Investing Fund in the
Fund. The Board will consider, among
other things: (a) Whether the purchases
were consistent with the investment
objectives and policies of the Fund; (b)
how the performance of securities
purchased in an Affiliated Underwriting
compares to the performance of
comparable securities purchased during
a comparable period of time in
underwritings other than Affiliated
Underwritings or to a benchmark such
as a comparable market index; and (c)
whether the amount of securities
purchased by the Fund in Affiliated
Underwritings and the amount
purchased directly from an
Underwriting Affiliate have changed
significantly from prior years. The
Board will take any appropriate actions
based on its review, including, if
appropriate, the institution of
procedures designed to assure that
purchases of securities in Affiliated
Underwritings are in the best interest of
shareholders of the Fund.
8. Each Fund will maintain and
preserve permanently in an easily
accessible place a written copy of the
procedures described in the preceding
condition, and any modifications to
such procedures, and will maintain and
preserve for a period of not less than six
years from the end of the fiscal year in
which any purchase in an Affiliated
Underwriting occurred, the first two
years in an easily accessible place, a
written record of each purchase of
securities in Affiliated Underwritings
once an investment by an Investing
Fund in the securities of the Fund
exceeds the limit of section
12(d)(1)(A)(i) of the Act, setting forth
from whom the securities were
acquired, the identity of the
underwriting syndicate’s members, the
terms of the purchase, and the
information or materials upon which
the Board’s determinations were made.
9. Before investing in a Fund in
excess of the limit in section
12(d)(1)(A), an Investing Fund will
execute a Participation Agreement with
the Fund stating, without limitation,
that their respective boards of directors
or trustees and their investment
advisers, or Trustee and Sponsor, as
applicable, understand the terms and
conditions of the order, and agree to
fulfill their responsibilities under the
order. At the time of its investment in
Shares of a Fund in excess of the limit
in section 12(d)(1)(A)(i), an Investing
Fund will notify the Fund of the
investment. At such time, the Investing
Fund will also transmit to the Fund a
list of the names of each Investing Fund

Affiliate and Underwriting Affiliate. The
Investing Fund will notify the Fund of
any changes to the list as soon as
reasonably practicable after a change
occurs. The Fund and the Investing
Fund will maintain and preserve a copy
of the order, the Participation
Agreement, and the list with any
updated information for the duration of
the investment and for a period of not
less than six years thereafter, the first
two years in an easily accessible place.
10. Before approving any advisory
contract under section 15 of the Act, the
board of directors or trustees of each
Investing Management Company,
including a majority of the disinterested
directors or trustees, will find that the
advisory fees charged under such
contract are based on services provided
that will be in addition to, rather than
duplicative of, the services provided
under the advisory contract(s) of any
Fund in which the Investing
Management Company may invest.
These findings and their basis will be
recorded fully in the minute books of
the appropriate Investing Management
Company.
11. Any sales charges and/or service
fees charged with respect to shares of an
Investing Fund will not exceed the
limits applicable to a fund of funds as
set forth in NASD Conduct Rule 2830.
12. No Fund relying on the section
12(d)(1) Relief will acquire securities of
any investment company or company
relying on section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of
the Act in excess of the limits contained
in section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act, except
to the extent permitted by exemptive
relief from the Commission permitting
the Fund to purchase shares of other
investment companies for short-term
cash management purposes.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Investment Management, under delegated
authority.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
