VISION

Security Procedures

1.a. ID/Password Requirements—Users

Authentication of a User in Vision is based on the Vision Operator ID and Password.

Required—The Vision Operator 10, assigned by DST, shall have access authorization as determined by Customer. This may include the following access levels, at Customer’s option, the contents of which shall be determined by Customer:

Unrestricted Access—This allows the User to view any account information for all of Customer’s Financial Products .

Dealer Level Access—This allows the User to view any account information with the authorized dealer number.

Dealer/Branch Level Access—This allows the User to view any account information with the authorized dealer and branch combination.

Dealer/Representative Level Access—This allows the User to view any account information with the authorized dealer and representative combination.

Tax ID Level Access—This allows the User to view any account with the authorized Social Security Number and/or TIN of the Unit Holder.

Trust/TPA Access—This allows the User to view any account with the authorized trust company or Third Patty Administrator number assigned to the underlying account/contract.

Required—Password is used in conjunction with Vision Operator ID to access the Vision Web Site, which consequently provides access to any Financial Product account information that has been previously authorized by Customer. Vision does not use a personal identification number (PIN).

1.b. ID/Password Requirements—Customer point of contact

Authentication of a Customer point of contact in the Distribution Support Services Web Site is based on an Operator ID and Password.

Required—The Operator ID, chosen by Customer, shall have access as determined by Customer. Access will be specific to the management company associated with Customer. This may include the following access levels, at Customer’s option, inquiry only access (Customer point of contact may only view information related to Users) or update access (Customer point of contact may update profiles related to Users, including, but not limited to, changing, adding and deleting User information). DST shall store the Operator ID and associated access levels. Any personnel changes or access changes affecting Customer point of contact must be communicated to DST promptly.

EXHIBIT B.2, p.5

2. Encryption

The DST Web server runs Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”). The purpose of using SSL is to encrypt data transmissions through the Vision Web Site and the Distribution Support Services Web Site and block communications through the Vision Web Site or the Distribution Support Services Web Site from Internet browsers which do not support SSL data encryption. The standard level of encryption supported by the Vision Web Site and the Distribution Support Services Web Site is 128-bit encryption.

3. Network Access Control

A device referred to as a “firewall” is located between the Internet and the collection of electronic documents or pages residing on DST’s computer system, linked to the Internet and accessible through the World Wide Web, where the data fields and related screens provided by DST may be viewed by Users who access such site (“DST Web Site”). The purpose of the firewall is to control connectivity to the DST Web Site at the port level. This equipment is located and administered at DST’s Winchester data center. Changes to the systems residing on this computer are submitted through the DST change control process. DST is advised by its current firewall provider that this equipment will not interrogate data, and that its only function is to limit the type of traffic accessing the DST Web Site. Ports on the firewall are configured to be consistent with ports at the DST Web Site.

All services and functions within the DST Web Site arc deactivated with the exception of services and functions which support the transfer of files. All ports on the DST Web Site are disabled, except those ports required to transfer files. All “listeners” are deactivated. Directory structures are “hidden” from the user. Services which provide directory information are also deactivated.

4. Limitation of Users

Access of DST personnel to the DST Web server is restricted within DST to a limited number of users based upon DST system administration requirements, as determined by appropriate DST systems managers from time to time.

5. Right to Audit

Customer may audit, at its expense, the Vision Web Site and the Distribution Support Services Web Site once in each 12 month period and any associated systems or networks within FAN, after providing reasonable written notice to DST. The audit may include review of configurations, audit trails, and maintenance of systems and software within FAN associated with the Vision Web Site and the Distribution Support Services Web Site. Tools which may be used for the audit may include network security tools; provided, that DST may specify the time at which any tool is used, if DST reasonably believes that such tool may affect system performance. The audit will be coordinated through the DST Internal Audit Office and DST will be entitled to observe all audit activity. Customer will not perform any action that may interfere with the uptime or stability of DST’s systems or networks. Subject to the foregoing, Customer may perform any audit activity which is technically possible for a user of the public Internet. In particular, Customer and its review team will be considered authorized users and DST will not seek prosecution under any computer crime or other applicable statutes for such activity.

EXHIBIT B.2, p.6

USER ENROLLMENT AND AUTHORIZATION PROCEDURES

The following procedures are part of the Security Procedures applicable to Vision Services.

1. Enrollment.

Each User is required to complete an Electronic Enrollment Form, which is available at a URL designated by DST (at the date of this Agreement—www.dstvision.com). Users enrolling for access may complete the enrollment process by providing DST with information called for in the Electronic Enrollment Form about their practice and the Financial Products they wish to access.

2. Customer Authorization.

Upon receiving a completed Electronic Enrollment Form from a User, DST will make available an Authorization Request to Customer (point of contact) through the Distribution Support Services Web Site. The Authorization Request will identify the level of access requested and the security criteria as well as provide a sample client Tax ID/Social Security Number.

Through the Distribution Support Services Web Site, Customer point of contact is solely responsible for authorizing or denying each User request for access to Transactions through Vision Services. When authorizing requests, security criteria must be verified by Customer. This includes verifying:

• Appropriate Level of Authorization. Please note, each authorization will provide access to the level indicated on DST’s Authorization Request. Access may be requested at the dealer, dealer/branch, dealer/representative, tax ID, or Trust/TPA level.

• Accurate Access Security Criteria. Customer must verify that each field authorized in the security criteria accurately represents the dealer/branch/representative or tax ID information which appears on the master of the representative’s clients accounts. 100% of the representative’s accounts should reflect the authorized criteria.

Customer assumes all responsibility for verifying the security level of each new User authorization request. DST shall not be required to verify that the person who processes the Authorization Request is legally authorized to do so on behalf of Customer and DST shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon such approval/denial without further duty to inquire.

3. Password & lD Notification.

When Customer approves an authorization request, the User’s ID is updated for the authorized security and an e-mail is sent to the User notifying him/her of their access to the Vision Web Site. Users are required to establish their own initial password at a URL designated by DST (at the date of this Agreement—www.dstvision.com/assignpswd.html).

2. Usage Fees.

DST will charge Customer fees per record made available, including all “header” records and “trailer” records, in accordance with the following fee schedule.

One to many records may be included between the “header” and “trailer” records. Most Files consist of two (2) to three (3) records per account, each 160 bytes of information being a separate record.¹
