RE: ICI Mutual Investment Company Blanket Bond No. 89265106B ("Bond")

Dear Mr Stroh:

As discussed, ICI Mutual recommends the following premium allocation for the above-
referenced Bond. As you know, our allocation is only a recommendation, and the ultimate
responsibility for the allocation of premiums rests with Insured management.

Insureds
Premium Allocation

Non-Funds
• Saturna Capital Corporation
• Saturna Brokerage Services, Inc.

20%
Funds
• Amana Mutual Funds Trust
• Saturna Investment Trust
80%

I am hereby confirming that, under the above-allocation methodology, the share of total
premiums allocated to each Investment Company ("Company") is less than the amount
each Company would pay if it had purchased separate bonds from ICI Mutual with limits of
$1,435,000.

We estimate that the Amana Mutual Funds Trust would pay approximately $13,000 for a Bond
with a limit of $1,435,000 while the Saturna Investment Trust would pay approximately $11,000
for a Bond with a limit of $1,435,000. Please call with questions.

Regards,

/s/Maggie Sullivan
Senior Underwriter
