Suspension of Financial Institution from the NASD for violation of any applicable federal or state law, rule or regulation will terminate this Agreement effective immediately upon OGDS' written notice of termination to Financial Institution; or (ii) That it is a "bank," as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(6) of the Exchange Act, that engages in activities described in Section 3(a)(4) of the Exchange Act and that, during the term of this Agreement, it will abide by the rules and regulations of those state and federal authorities with appropriate jurisdiction over the Financial Institution, especially those regulations dealing with the activities of the Institution as described under this Agreement.

The parties agree that in each transaction in the Shares of any Fund and with regard to any services rendered pursuant to this Agreement: (a) Financial Institution is acting as agent for the customer; (b) The customer is for all purposes the customer of Financial Institution (c) Each transaction is initiated solely upon the order of the customer; (d) As between Financial Institution and its customer, the customer will have full beneficial ownership of all Shares of the Funds; (e) Each transaction shall be for the account of the customer and not for Financial Institution's account; and (f) Each transaction shall be without recourse to Financial Institution provided that Financial Institution acts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Financial Institution will offer and sell the Shares of the Funds only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") and will make no representations not included in said Prospectus or SAI or in any authorized supplemental material supplied by OGDS. Financial Institution shall not have any authority in any transaction to act as agent for OGDS or One Group. B. Sales of Fund Shares. 1. Execution of Orders for Purchase and Redemption of Shares. (a) All orders for the purchase of any Shares shall be executed at the then-current public offering price per share (i.e., the net asset value per share plus the applicable initial sales load, if any) and all orders for the redemption of any Shares shall be executed at the net asset value per share, in each case as described in the applicable Fund prospectus. Any applicable deferred sales charges (contingent or otherwise), redemption fee, or similar charge or fee will be deducted by One Group prior to the transmission of the redemption proceeds to Financial Institution or its customer. OGDS and One Group reserve the right to reject any purchase request in their sole discretion. The procedures relating to all orders will be subject to the terms of the prospectus of each Fund and OGDS' written instructions to Financial Institution from time to time. Specifically, 2 (i) orders to purchase and redeem shares received by Financial Institution or its "Coorespondents" (as defined in Section 1.(d)) prior to the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time ("ET")) ("Market Close") on any day that a Fund is open for business ("Day 1") will be electronically transmitted to One Group by 8:00 a.m., ET on the next day that the Fund is open for business ("Day 2")(such orders are referred to as "Day 1 Trades"); and (ii) orders to purchase and redeem shares received by Financial Institution or its Correspondents after the Market Close on Day 1, but prior to the Market Close on Day 2 ("Day 2 Trades") will be electronically transmitted to One Group on the second day that a Fund is open for business following Day 1. (iii) If the Financial Institution cannot electronically transmit Day 1 Trades by 8:00 a.m. on Day 2, Financial Institution will transmit such orders by facsimile prior to the beginning of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 9:30 a.m ET) ("Market Open") on Day 2. (b) Day 1 Trades will be effected at the NAV calculated as of the Market Close on Day 1 and Day 2 Trades will be effected at the NAV calculated as of the Market Close on Day 2. One Group agrees that, consistent with the foregoing, Day 1 Trades will have been received by One Group prior to the Market Close on Day 1 for all purposes, including, without limitation, effecting distributions. (c) Payments for Shares shall be made as specified in the applicable Fund prospectus, (i.e., by wire directly to State Street Bank and Trust Company, One Group's transfer agent). If payment for any purchase order is not received in accordance with the terms of the applicable Fund prospectus, OGDS reserves the right, without notice, to cancel the sale and to hold Financial Institution responsible for any loss sustained as a result thereof, including loss of profit to the applicable Fund. (d) Financial Institution confirms that it will be considered One Group's agent for purposes of Rule 22c-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). Financial Institution may authorized such intermediaries as it deems appropriate ("Correspondents") to receive orders on One Group's behalf for purposes of Rule 22c-1 under the Investment Company Act. Financial Institution shall be liable to One Group for each Correspondnet's compliance with this Section 1.(d) to the same extent as if Financial Institution itself had acted or failed to act instead of the Correspondent. Financial Institution acknowledges that it has: (i) adopted and implemented procedures reasonably designed to prevent orders received after the Market Close on any day that a Fund is open for business from being improperly aggregated with orders received prior to the Market Close; and (ii) determined that each Correspondent has adopted and implemented its own internal procedures reasonably designed to prevent orders received after the Market Close on any day that a Fund is open for business from being improperly aggregated with orders received prior to the Market Close. 2. Initial Sales Loads Payable to Financial Institution. (a) On each order accepted by OGDS, in exchange for the performance of sales and/or distribution services, Financial Institution will be entitled to receive the applicable percentage of the initial sales load, if any, as established by OGDS from the amount paid by Financial Institution's customer. The initial sales loads for any Fund shall be those set forth in the Fund's prospectus. The portion of the initial sales load payable to Financial Institution may be changed at any time, at OGDS' sole discretion, upon written notice to Financial Institution. 3 (b) Transactions may be settled by Financial Institution: (i) by payment of the full purchase price less an amount equal to Financial Institution's applicable percentage of the initial sales load, or (ii) by payment of the full purchase price, in which case Financial Institution shall receive, not less frequently than monthly, the aggregate fees due to it on orders received and settled. (e) It shall be the obligation of the Financial Institution to either (i) assess the appropriate initial sales load for each transaction and to forward the public offering price, net of the amount of the initial sales load to be reallocated to the Financial Institution, to the appropriate Fund, or (ii) to provide OGDS with all necessary information regarding the application of the appropriate initial sales load to each transaction. (f) In the event that Financial Institution notifies OGDS in writing that Financial Institution elects to waive such initial sales load, and if the Funds' prospectus permits such waiver, such initial sales load will not be assessed on the transaction. Neither the Fund nor OGDS shall have any responsibility to correct the payment or assessment of an incorrect initial sales load due to the failure of the Financial Institution to fulfill the foregoing obligation. 3. Contingent Deferred Sales Charges and Advance Commissions Payable to Financial Institution. (a) Upon the purchase of certain Shares, as described in the applicable prospectuses, OGDS will pay Financial Institution an advance commission as published in the Fund's current prospectus. This amount is not to be considered an initial sales load and should not be deducted from the public offering price of the Shares which shall be forwarded to the Fund. Generally, a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") will be assessed upon the redemption of Shares with regard to which an advance commission is paid by OGDS. (b) To receive advance commissions from OGDS on Shares that are subject to a CDSC, Financial Institution must open investor accounts with the Fund on a fully disclosed basis or be able to account for share ownership periods used in calculating the CDSC. Furthermore, should the custody (or record ownership) of the shares of the investor account(s) be transferred during the applicable CDSC holding period (as described in the Fund prospectus) to a financial institution which does not maintain investor accounts on a fully disclosed basis and does not account for share ownership periods, the Financial Institution agrees to reimburse OGDS prior to such transfer for advance commissions paid to it by OGDS. (c) In the event that Financial Institution notifies OGDS in writing that Financial Institution elects to waive such advance commission, and if the Fund's prospectus permits such a waiver, the advance commission will not be paid and the CDSC will not be charged upon the redemption of the relevant Shares. . Neither the Fund nor OGDS shall have any responsibility to correct the assessment of an incorrect CDSC due to the failure of the Financial Institution to fulfill the foregoing obligation. C. Distribution Services. 1. Agreement to Provide Distribution Services. (a) With regard to those Funds noted on Exhibit A which pay asset-based sales charges under Distribution and Shareholder Services Plans adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act, as amended ("Rule 12b-1 Fees"), OGDS hereby appoints Financial Institution to render or cause to be rendered distribution and sales services to the Funds and their shareholders. (b) The services to be provided under sub-section (a) may include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) Assisting OGDS in marketing shares of the Funds to Financial Institution's prospective and existing customers; 4 (ii) Aggregating and processing purchase and redemption requests for Shares from customers and placing net purchase and redemption orders with the Funds or their transfer agent; (iii) Providing periodic information to customers about their holdings in the Funds; (iv) Arranging for bank wires and federal funds wires to and from customers' accounts; (v) Responding to questions about the Funds from customers and potential customers; (vi) Processing dividend payments; (vii) Assisting customers in changing dividend options, account designations, and addresses; (viii) Where required by law, forwarding Fund shareholder communications (such as proxies, shareholder reports, annual and semi-annual financial statements, and dividend, distribution and tax notices) to Customers; (ix) Advertising the availability of the Funds; and (x) Providing other similar services as OGDS may reasonably request to the extent permitted under applicable laws or regulations. (c) OGDS may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount of, or terminate entirely, Rule 12b-1 Fee payments. In addition, Rule 12b-1 Fees may be reduced or eliminated at any time if the Distribution and Shareholder Services Plans under which the fees are paid are materially amended or terminated either by the Board of Trustees of One Group or by vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund. 2. Asset-Based Sales Loads Payable to Financial Institution. During the term of this Agreement, OGDS will pay Financial Institution Rule 12b-1 Fees for each Fund as set forth in the Fund's current prospectus. For the payment period in which this Agreement becomes effective or terminates, there shall be an appropriate pro-ration of the fee on the basis of the number of days that this Agreement is in effect during the period. 5 D. Miscellaneous. 1. Delivery of Prospectuses and Reports to Customers. Financial Institution will deliver or cause to be delivered to each customer, at or prior to the time of any purchase of Shares, a copy of the current prospectus of the Fund and, upon request by a customer or shareholder, a copy of the Fund's current Statement of Additional Information. Financial Institution agrees to deliver to Shareholder, upon the request of OGDS, copies of amended prospectuses and to deliver or cause to be delivered to shareholders proxy solicitation materials and copies of the Funds' annual and semi-annual reports. Financial Institution shall not make any representations concerning any Shares other than those contained in the prospectus or Statement of Additional Information of a Fund or in any promotional materials or sales literature furnished to Financial Institution by OGDS or One Group. 2. ERISA Assets. (a) Financial Institution understands that the Department of Labor views ERISA as prohibiting fiduciaries of discretionary ERISA assets from receiving administrative service fees or other compensation from funds in which the fiduciary's discretionary ERISA assets are invested. To date, the Department of Labor has not issued any exemptive order or advisory opinion that would exempt fiduciaries from this interpretation. Without specific authorization from the Department of Labor, fiduciaries should carefully avoid investing discretionary assets in any fund pursuant to an arrangement where the fiduciary is to be compensated by the fund for such investment. Receipt of such compensation could violate ERISA provisions against fiduciary self-dealing and conflict of interest and could subject the fiduciary to substantial penalties. (d) Financial Institution will not perform or provide any duties or services that would cause it to be a fiduciary under Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. For purposes of that Section, Financial Institution understands that any person who exercises any discretionary authority or discretionary control with respect to any individual retirement account or its assets, or who renders investment advice for a fee, or has any authority or responsibility to do so, or has any discretionary authority or discretionary responsibility in the administration of such an account, is a fiduciary. 3. Blue Sky. (a) Shares of the Funds have been qualified for sale under, or are exempt from the requirements of the respective securities laws of the states and jurisdictions listed on Exhibit A. OGDS will promptly notify Financial Institution in the event shares of the Funds cease to be qualified for sale under, or cease to qualify for an exemption from the requirements of the respective securities laws of the states and jurisdictions listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement. (b) Financial Institution agrees and certifies that: (i) It is licensed to offer and sell securities of open-end investment companies in all jurisdictions in which it plans to offer and sell such securities; (ii) It will comply with all applicable state and federal laws and the rules and regulations of authorized regulatory agencies; and (iii) It will not sell or offer for sale Shares of the Funds in any state or jurisdiction where the Shares have not been qualified for sale. 4. Indemnification. 6 (a) Financial Institution shall indemnify and hold harmless OGDS, OGA, each Fund, the transfer agent of the Funds, and their respective subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees from all direct or indirect liabilities, losses or costs (including attorneys fees) arising from, related to or otherwise connected with: (i) any material breach by Financial Institution of any representations, covenants or warranties of this Agreement; (ii) any actions or omissions of OGDS, OGA, any Fund, the transfer agent of the Funds, and their subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees in reliance upon any oral, written or computer or electronically transmitted instructions, documents or materials believed to be genuine and to have been given by or on behalf of Financial Institution; or (iii) any willful misconduct or negligence (as measured by industry standards) of Financial Institution, its agents and employees, in the performance of, or failure to perform, its obligations under this Agreement, or any reckless disregard of its obligations under this Agreement. (b) OGDS shall indemnify and hold harmless Financial Institution and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all direct or indirect liabilities, losses or costs (including attorneys fees) arising from, related to or otherwise connected with: (i) any breach by OGDS of any representations, covenants or warranties of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement; (ii) any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Fund's Registration Statement or Prospectus, or as a result of or based upon any alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading; and (iii) any willful misconduct or negligence (as measured by industry standards) of OGDS, its agents and employees, in the performance of, or failure to perform, its obligations under this Agreement, or any reckless disregard of its obligations under this Agreement (c) OGA shall indemnify and hold harmless Financial Institution and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all direct or indirect liabilities, losses or costs (including attorneys fees) arising from, related to or otherwise connected with any breach by OGA of any provision of this Agreement. (d) The agreement of the parties in this Section 4 to indemnify each other is conditioned upon the party entitled to indemnification (Indemnified Party) giving notice to the party required to provide indemnification (Indemnifying Party) promptly after the summons or other first legal process for any claim as to which indemnity may be sought is served on the Indemnified Party. Such notice will be given by a means of prompt delivery that provides confirmation of receipt to the address provided below in Paragraph 9. The Indemnified Party shall permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting from it, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying Party who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation shall be approved by the Indemnified Party (which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and that the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its expense. If the Indemnifying party does not elect to assume the defense, the Indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by it. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Sub-section (d) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability other than its indemnity obligation under this Section. No Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term the 7 giving by the claimant or plaintiff to the Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. (e) The provisions of this Section 4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement. Limitation of Liability. The parties under this Agreement shall not be liable under any cirucmstances (other than those identified in Section D4 hereof) to the other for consequential, indirect, special, incidental or punitive damages whatsoever, even if such party has been advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the forum or the form of action. 5.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 5 shall not prohibit the Financial Institution, the Funds, OGDS, OGA, or any of their affiliates from utilizing the names of customers of Financial Institution, the Funds, OGDS, OGA, or any of their affiliates for any purpose if the names are obtained in any manner other than from Financial Institution pursuant to this Agreement. (b) If applicable, Financial Institution will deliver One Group's privacy policy as required by Regulation S-P.
