The expenses for which the Fund is being reimbursed pursuant to this Agreement do not include (x) Management Fees payable by the Fund pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement and (y) any sales load or underwriting discount paid by shareholders, but do include any reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Fund’s underwriters in connection with the initial public offering.

4. The Fund’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust, including any amendments thereto, is on file with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
