EXHIBIT 6G
DEALER SALES AGREEMENT
----------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We invite you to join a selling group for the distribution of shares of those
mutual funds available to the public for which we serve as the investment
adviser (the "Funds"). Upon execution of this Agreement, you agree to
participate in the distribution of the Funds to the public subject to the terms
set forth herein.
1. In all sales of the Funds to the public, you shall act as dealer of your
own account and shall not be authorized to act as agent for the Funds, for any
other dealer, or for us.
2. All orders will be accepted only at the price, in the amount and subject to
the terms set forth in the then current Prospectuses and Statements of
Additional Information of the Funds. The procedure relating to the handling of
orders shall be subject to instructions which we shall forward to you from time
to time. Certificates representing shares of the Funds will not be issued.
3. You agree to provide distribution and marketing services in the marketing
of shares of the Funds and services to your customers who are Fund shareholders.
Such shareholder services may include personal services provided to
shareholders, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding a Fund and
providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance
of shareholder accounts. For all services, we will pay you a fee, as
established by us from time to time. Such fee will be based upon the following
percentages of the average month-end or daily net assets of each Fund
represented by shares of the Fund owned, during the quarter for which payment is
being made, by customers for which you maintain a servicing relationship as
evidenced by their execution of such agreements as we may from time to time
require. We specifically reserve the right to discontinue paying fees with
respect to those assets for which such customer authorizations which we may
require are not provided.

require have not been terminated. Upon such termination, any such obligation to
pay such fee shall cease. You agree to furnish us or the Funds with such
information as may be reasonably requested with respect to such fees paid to you
pursuant to this Agreement.
4. If any Fund shares sold under the terms of this Agreement are repurchased
by the Funds or are tendered for redemption within seven business days after
confirmation of the original purchase, it is agreed that you shall forfeit the
right to receive the fees hereunder with respect to such shares.

except those contained in the then current Prospectuses and in such printed
information as may be furnished for use as information supplemental to the
Prospectuses. Additional copies of the Prospectuses and any printed information
supplementing the Prospectuses will be supplied in reasonable quantities upon
request.

discretion and without notice, to suspend sales or withdraw the offering of

Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and agree that termination or suspension
of such membership shall automatically terminate this Agreement. You further
agree that you will immediately advise us of any such termination or suspension.
You also represent that you are authorized under relevant federal and state laws
and regulations to receive the fees payable hereunder and that you will
immediately advise us of any termination or suspension of such authorization.
9. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Funds and us from and against
any and all claims, liability, expense (including attorneys' fees) or loss in
the event that you, or any of your employees or agents, should violate any law,
rule or regulation or any provisions of this Agreement, including, without
limitation, any representations, verbal or otherwise, of any untrue or alleged
untrue statements of a material fact relating to the offer and sale of the
Funds. In the event we determine to refund any amounts paid by any investor by
reason of any such violation on your part, you shall return to us any fees
previously paid by us to you in connection with the transaction for which the
refund is made.
