Indemnification of Trustees
      and Officers
.
The
      following summary describes the relevant terms of the Registrant's Amended and
      Restated Declaration of Trust (the "Declaration of Trust") which provides for
      the limitation of liability with respect to and indemnification of an agent
      of
      the Registrant, including, without limitation, any person who is or was a
      Trustee, officer or employee of the Registrant.
Pursuant
      to Section 7.3 of Article VII of the Registrant's Declaration of Trust, no
      Trustee, officer or agent of the Registrant shall be liable on account of his
      own acts, neglects, and defaults (including without limitation the failure
      to
      compel in any way any former or acting Trustee to redress any breach of trust)
      to the Registrant or to any shareholder, Trustee, officer or agent thereof
      except for such of his own acts, neglects, and defaults as constitute a willful
      breach of trust knowingly and intentionally committed in bad faith.
Pursuant
      to Section 7.4 of Article VII of the Declaration of Trust, the Registrant shall
      indemnify each of its Trustees, officers, employees and agents (including any
      person who serves at its written request as a director, officer, partner,
      trustee or the like of another organization in which it has any interest as
      a
      shareholder, creditor or otherwise) against all liabilities and expenses,
      including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise or as fines
      and penalties, and counsel fees, reasonably incurred by him or in connection
      with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether
      civil or criminal, in which he may be involved or with which he may be
      threatened while acting as Trustee or as an officer, employee or agent of the
      Registrant or the Board of Trustees, as the case may be, or thereafter, by
      reason of his being or having been such a Trustee, officer, employee or agent,
      except with respect to any matter as to which he shall have been adjudicated
      to
      have acted in bad faith or with willful misconduct or reckless disregard of
      his
      duties or gross negligence or not to have acted in good faith in the reasonable
      belief that his action was in the best interests of the
      Registrant.
-
          5
          -
As
      to any
      matter disposed of by a compromise payment by such Trustee, officer, employee
      or
      agent, pursuant to a consent decree or otherwise, no indemnification either
      for
      said payment or for any other expenses shall be provided unless such compromise
      shall be approved as in the best interests of the Registrant by a majority
      of
      the disinterested Trustees or the Registrant shall have received a written
      opinion of independent legal counsel to the effect that such Trustee, officer,
      employee or agent appears to have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief
      that his action was in the best interests of the Registrant.
No
      Trustee, officer, employee or agent may satisfy any right of indemnity or
      reimbursement granted to him under the Declaration of Trust or to which he
      may
      be otherwise entitled except out of the Registrant's property; and no
      shareholder shall be personally liable to any person with respect to any claim
      for indemnity or reimbursement or otherwise.
The
      Board
      of Trustees may make advance payments in connection with indemnification under
      the Declaration of Trust, provided that the indemnified Trustee, officer,
      employee or agent shall have given a written undertaking to reimburse the
      Registrant in the event it is subsequently determined that he is not entitled
      to
      such indemnification.
The
      Registrant also maintains a liability insurance policy providing coverage for
      the Trustees and officers of the Registrant, in an amount up to $3,000,000
      for
      any single event, against any liability asserted against or incurred by such
      Trustee or officer, in any such capacity or arising from his status as such,
      whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify the person
      against such liability under the Declaration of Trust.

Undertakings
.
The
      Registrant hereby undertakes:
(a)           To
      file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
      post-effective amendment to this registration statement:  (i) to
      include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
      (ii)
      to reflect in such prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective
      date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
      thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represents a fundamental
      change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and (iii)
      to
      include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
      previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to
      such information in the registration statement;
provided, however
, that
      (i) and (ii) herein do not apply if the information required to be included
      in a
      post-effective amendment by such provisions is contained in periodic reports
      filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange
      Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration
      statement.
(b)           That,
      for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each
      such
      post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
      relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
      at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
      thereof.
(c)           To
      remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the
      securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
      offering.
(d)           That,
      for purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing
      of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of
      the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement
      shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
      offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
      deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(e)           That,
      insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
      may
      be permitted to directors, 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 Commission, such indemnification is against
      public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
      successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
      director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
      registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter
      has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
      jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against
      public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the
      final adjudication of such issue.
