consist of one or more classes of beneficial interest ("Shares"); and

     ARTICLE 3.    ALLOCATION OF CHARGES AND EXPENSES.

     (A)  THE ADMINISTRATOR. The Administrator shall furnish at its own expense
the executive, supervisory and clerical personnel necessary to perform its
obligations under this Agreement. The Administrator shall also pay all
compensation, if any, of officers of the Trust as well as all Trustees of the
Trust who are affiliated persons of the Administrator or any affiliated

to perform services on behalf of the Trust.

     (B)  THE TRUST. The Trust assumes and shall pay or cause to be paid all
other expenses of the Trust not otherwise allocated herein, including, without

                                       4



     ARTICLE 5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. The duties of the
Administrator shall be confined to those expressly set forth herein, and no
implied duties are assumed by or may be asserted against the Administrator
hereunder. The Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment or
mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or
omission in carrying out its duties hereunder, except a loss resulting from
willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its
duties (except for the Service Standards or under the Schedule set forth herein,
for which the standard shall be failure to exercise due care), or by reason of
reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder, except as may
otherwise be provided under provisions of applicable law which cannot be waived
or modified hereby. (As used in this Article 5, the term "Administrator" shall
include directors, officers, employees and other agents of the Administrator as
well as that corporation itself.) .

     So long as the Administrator, or its agents, acts in good faith and with
due diligence the Trust assumes full responsibility and shall indemnify the
Administrator and hold it harmless from and against any and all actions, suits
and claims, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all
losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements,
payments, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable investigation expenses)
arising directly or indirectly out of said administration, transfer agency, and
dividend disbursing relationships to the Trust or any other service rendered to
the Trust hereunder. The indemnity and defense provisions set forth herein shall
indefinitely survive the termination of this Agreement.

     The rights hereunder shall include the right to reasonable advances of
defense expenses in the event of any pending or threatened litigation with
respect to which indemnification hereunder may ultimately be merited. In order
that the indemnification provision contained herein shall apply, however, it is
understood that if in any case the Trust may be asked to indemnify or hold the
Administrator harmless, the Trust shall be fully and promptly advised of all
pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and it is further
understood that the Administrator will use all reasonable care to identify and
notify the Trust promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears
likely to present the probability of such a claim for indemnification against
the Trust, but failure to do so in good faith shall not affect the rights
hereunder.

     The Trust shall be entitled to participate at its own expense or, if it so
elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any claims subject
to this indemnity provision. If the Trust elects to assume the defense of any
such claim, the defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Trust and
satisfactory to the Administrator, whose approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld. In the event that the Trust elects to assume the defense of any suit
and retain counsel, the Administrator shall bear the fees and expenses of any
additional counsel retained by it. If the Trust does not elect to assume the
defense of a suit, it will reimburse the Administrator for the reasonable fees
and expenses of any counsel retained by the Administrator.

     The Administrator may apply to the Trust at any time for instructions and
may consult counsel for the Trust or its own counsel and with accountants and
other experts with respect to any matter arising in connection with the
Administrator's duties, and the Administrator shall not be


                                       5


liable or accountable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith in
accordance with such instruction or with the opinion of such counsel,
accountants or other experts.

     Also, the Administrator shall be protected in acting upon any document
which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper person or persons. Nor shall the Administrator be held to have
notice of any change of authority of any officers, employee or agent of the
Trust until receipt of written notice thereof from the Trust.

     ARTICLE 6. ACTIVITIES OF THE ADMINISTRATOR. The services of the
Administrator rendered to the Trust are not to be deemed to be exclusive. The
Administrator is free to render such services to others and to have other
businesses and interests. It is understood that Trustees, officers, employees
and Shareholders of the Trust are or may be or become interested in the
Administrator, as directors, officers, employees and shareholders or otherwise
and that directors, officers, employees and shareholders of the Administrator
and its counsel are or may be or become similarly interested in the Trust, and
that the Administrator may be or become interested in the Trust as a Shareholder
or otherwise.

     ARTICLE 7. CONFIDENTIALITY. The Administrator agrees on behalf of itself
and its employees to treat confidentially all records and other information
relative to the Trust and its prior, present or potential Shareholders and
relative to the Adviser and its prior, present or potential customers, except,
after prior notification to and approval in writing by the Trust, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld and may not be withheld where the
Administrator may be exposed to civil or criminal contempt proceedings for
failure to comply, when requested to divulge such information by duly
constituted authorities, or when so requested by the Trust. Further, Trust
acknowledges that it has access to confidential information about Administrator,
business and operations, and the Trust and its affiliates agree to hold such
information in strict confidence and not to disclose confidential information to
any third-party except as required by law or where the Trust may be expose to
civil or criminal contempt proceedings for failure to comply with disclosure.

     ARTICLE 8. EQUIPMENT FAILURES. In the event of equipment failures beyond
the Administrator's control, the Administrator shall, at no additional expense
to the Trust, take reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions but shall
have no liability with respect thereto. The Administrator shall develop and
maintain a plan for recovery from equipment failures which may include
contractual arrangements with appropriate parties making reasonable provision
for emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to the extent
appropriate equipment is available.

     ARTICLE 9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. A copy of the Certificate of Trust of
the Trust is on file with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, and
notice is hereby given that this Agreement is executed by the Trustees on behalf
of the Trust solely as Trustees and not individually and that the obligations of
this instrument are not binding upon any of the Trustees, officers or
shareholders of the Trust individually but binding only upon the assets and
property of the Trust.

breaching party has not remedied such breach by the specified date; (d)

Portfolio are sold or otherwise disposed of and proceeds therefrom are
distributed in cash to the shareholders in complete liquidation of the interests
of such shareholders in the entity.

     This Agreement shall not be assignable by the Administrator, without the
prior written consent of the Trust, except to an entity that is controlled by,
or under common control, with, the Administrator.

waived only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which
enforcement of such change or waiver is sought.

     ARTICLE 13. CERTAIN RECORDS. The Administrator shall maintain customary
records in connection with its duties as specified in this Agreement. Any
records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to Rules 31a-1 and
31a-2 under the 1940 Act which are prepared or maintained by the Administrator
on behalf of the Trust shall be prepared and maintained at the expense of the
Administrator, but shall be the property of the Trust and will be made available
to or surrendered promptly to the Trust on request.

     In case of any request or demand for the inspection of such records by
another party, the Administrator shall notify the Trust and follow the Trust's
instructions as to permitting or refusing such inspection; provided that the
Administrator may exhibit such records to any person in any case where it is
advised by its counsel that it may be held liable for failure to do so, unless
(in cases


                                       7


involving potential exposure only to civil liability) the Trust has agreed to
indemnify the Administrator against such liability.

     ARTICLE 14. DEFINITIONS OF CERTAIN TERMS. The terms "interested person" and

meanings specified in the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder,
subject to such exemptions as may be granted by the Securities and Exchange

Pennsylvania, or any of the provisions herein, conflict with the applicable
provisions of the 1940 Act, the latter shall control.

     ARTICLE 17. MULTIPLE ORIGINALS. This Agreement may be executed in two or
more counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an
original, but such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

     ARTICLE 18. BINDING AGREEMENT. This Agreement, and the rights and
obligations of the parties and the Portfolios hereunder, shall be binding on,
and inure to the benefit of, the parties and the Portfolios and the respective
