California Limited Fund and the net
asset value per share of National
Limited Fund shall be determined as of
the Close of Trading on the NYSE on
the Valuation Date, after the declaration
and payment of any dividend on that
date.  The stock transfer books of
Investment Trust with respect to

permanently closed, and sales of
California Limited Fund Shares shall be
suspended, as of the close of business
of Investment Trust on the Valuation

received by Investment Trust with
respect to California Limited Fund shall
be deemed to be redemption requests

provided that the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are
consummated.

		In the event that trading on the NYSE or
on another exchange or market on which
securities held by the California Limited
Fund are traded shall be disrupted on
the Valuation Date so that, in the
judgment of Investment Trust, accurate
appraisal of the net assets of California
Limited Fund to be transferred
hereunder or the assets of National
Limited Fund is impracticable, the
Valuation Date shall be postponed until
the first Business Day after the day on
which trading on such exchange or in
such market shall, in the judgment of
Investment Trust, have been resumed
without disruption.  In such event, the
Closing Date shall be postponed until
one Business Day after the Valuation
Date.
	3.3	Delivery of Assets.  After the close of
business on the Valuation Date,
Investment Trust shall issue instructions
providing for the delivery of all of its
assets held on behalf of California
Limited Fund to the Custodian to be
held for the account of National Limited
Fund, effective as of the Closing.
National Limited Fund may inspect such
securities at the offices of the
Custodian prior to the Valuation Date.

4.	California Limited Fund Distributions and
Termination

4.1	As soon as reasonably practicable after
the Closing Date, Investment Trust shall
pay or make provisions for the payment
of all of the debts and taxes of
California Limited Fund and distribute all
remaining assets, if any, to shareholders
of California Limited Fund, and
California Limited Fund shall thereafter
be terminated under Massachusetts law.
	At, or as soon as may be practicable
following the Closing Date, Investment
Trust on behalf of California Limited
Fund shall distribute the Class A, Class
B and Class C National Limited Fund
Shares it received from the National
Limited Fund to the shareholders of the
California Limited Fund and shall
instruct National Limited Fund as to the
amount of the pro rata interest of each
of California Limited Fund's
shareholders as of the close of
business on the Valuation Date (such
shareholders to be certified as such by
the transfer agent for Investment Trust),
to be registered on the books of
National Limited Fund, in full and
fractional National Limited Fund Shares,
in the name of each such shareholder,
and National Limited Fund agrees
promptly to transfer the National Limited
Fund Shares then credited to the
account of California Limited Fund on
the books of National Limited Fund to
open accounts on the share records of
National Limited Fund in the names of
California Limited Fund shareholders in
accordance with said instruction.  Each
California Limited Fund shareholder
shall receive shares of the
corresponding class of National Limited
Fund to the class of California Limited
Fund held by such shareholder.  All
issued and outstanding California
Limited Fund Shares shall thereupon be
canceled on the books of Investment
Trust.  National Limited Fund shall have
no obligation to inquire as to the
correctness of any such instruction, but
shall, in each case, assume that such
instruction is valid, proper and correct.

5.	California Limited Fund Securities

	On the Delivery Date, Investment Trust on behalf
of California Limited Fund shall deliver the
Securities List and tax records.  Such records
shall be made available to National Limited Fund
prior to the Closing Date for inspection by the
Treasurer (or his or her designee).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly
understood that California Limited Fund may
hereafter until the close of business on the
Valuation Date sell any securities owned by it in
the ordinary course of its business as a series
of an open-end, management investment
company.

6.	Liabilities and Expenses
