a distribution fee calculated and paid monthly at
the annual rate of 0.10 of 1.00% of the average net
asset value of such shares. Each Fund having Class
B or C shares shall pay to the Distributor a
distribution fee calculated and paid monthly at the

(b) Such payment of servicing fees represents
compensation for servicing the shares, including

associated with educational conferences and the
preparation of educational materials. Such payment
for distribution fees represents compensation for
expenses incurred by the Distributor for the
promotion and distribution of the shares of the
Fund making the payment, including, but not limited
to the printing of prospectuses and reports used
for sales purposes, advertisements, expenses of
preparation and printing of sales literature and
other sales or promotional expense, including any
compensation, paid to any securities dealer or
others person who has incurred such expense
pursuant to a Selling Agreement executed by such
party and the Distributor.
Section 2. No payments are to be made by the Trust or
any Fund to finance or promote sales of shares other than
pursuant to this Plan.
Section 3. The Distributor shall prepare written
reports to the Trust's board of trustees on a quarterly basis
showing all amounts paid under this Plan and the purposes for
which such payments were made, plus a summary of the expenses
incurred by the Distributor hereunder, together with such
other information as from time to time shall be reasonably
requested by the board of trustees of the Trust.
Section 4. For each Fund, the Plan shall remain in
effect until April 30, 1998 and shall continue in effect from
year to year thereafter only so long as such continuance is
specifically approved at least annually by the vote of a
majority of the trustees of the Trust, including a majority
of the non-interested trustees of each Trust who have no
direct or indirect financial interest in the Plan or in any
agreements related to the Plan, cast in person at a meeting
called for such purpose.
Section 5. So long as the Plan is in effect, nominees
for election as non-interested trustees of each Trust listed
in Schedule A shall be selected by the non-interested
trustees as required by Rule 12b-1 under the Act.
Section 6. The Plan may be terminated as to a Fund,
without penalty, at any time by either a majority of the non-
interested trustees of the applicable Trust or by a vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund,
and shall terminate automatically in the event of any act
that terminates the Underwriting Agreement with the
Distributor. To the extent the Plan is terminated with
respect to any particular fund or class, such termination
will not affect the Plan with regard to any other fund or
class unless specifically indicated.
Section 7. As to any Fund, the Plan may not be amended
to increase materially the amount authorized by this Plan to
be spent for services described hereunder without approval by
a majority of that Fund's outstanding voting securities, and
all material amendments to the Plan shall be approved by a
vote of a majority of the trustees of the Trust, including a
majority of the non-interested trustees of the Trust who have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the Plan, cast in
person at a meeting called for such purpose.
Section 8. Any obligation of any Trust hereunder shall
be binding only upon the assets of the Trust (or the
applicable Fund) and shall not be binding upon any trustee,
officer, employee, agent, or shareholder of that Trust.
Neither the authorization of any action by the trustees or
shareholders of the Trust nor the execution of this Plan on
behalf of the Trust shall impose any liability upon any
trustee or any shareholder.
This Plan and the terms and provisions thereof are
hereby accepted and agreed to by the Trust and the
Distributor as evidenced by their execution hereof.
