This bond does not directly or indirectly cover:

This bond applies only to loss first discovered by any partner, director, trustee, officer or supervisory employee of the INSURED during the BOND PERIOD. Discovery occurs at the earlier of such individuals being aware of;

At all times prior to termination of this bond, this bond shall continue in force for the limit stated in the applicable sections of ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS, notwithstanding any previous loss for which the UNDERWRITER may have paid or be liable to pay under this bond provided, however, that the liability of the UNDERWRITER under this bond with respect to all loss resulting from:

shall be deemed to be one loss and shall be limited to the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS of this bond irrespective of the total amount of such loss or losses and shall not be cumulative in amounts from year to year or from period to period.

All acts, as specified in c. above, of any one person which

whether such acts are committed with or without the knowledge of the wrongful acts of the person so aided, and whether such acts are committed with or without the intent to aid such other person, shall be deemed to be one loss with the wrongful acts of all persons so aided.

The UNDERWRITER shall not be liable under any INSURING CLAUSES of this bond on account of loss unless the amount of such loss, after deducting the net amount of all reimbursement and/or recovery obtained or made by the INSURED, other than from any bond or policy of insurance issued by an insurance company and covering such loss, or by the UNDERWRITER on account thereof prior to payment by the UNDERWRITER of such loss, shall exceed the DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT set forth in ITEM 4. of the DECLARATIONS, and then for such excess only, but in no event for more than the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS.

There shall be no deductible applicable to any loss under INSURING CLAUSE 1. sustained by any Investment Company.

The UNDERWRITER will indemnify the INSURED for court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred and paid by the INSURED in defense, whether or not successful, whether or not fully litigated on the merits and whether or not settled, of any claim, suit or legal proceeding with respect to which the INSURED would be entitled to recovery under this bond. However, with respect to INSURING CLAUSE 1. this Section shall only apply in the event that:

The INSURED shall promptly give notice to the UNDERWRITER of any such suit or legal proceeding and at the request of the UNDERWRITER shall furnish copies of all pleadings and pertinent papers to the UNDERWRITER. The UNDERWRITER may, at its sole option, elect to conduct the defense of all or part of such legal proceeding. The defense by the UNDERWRITER shall be in the name of the INSURED through attorneys selected by the UNDERWRITER. The INSURED shall provide all reasonable information and assistance as required by the UNDERWRITER for such defense.

If the amount demanded in any such suit or legal proceeding is greater than the LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS for the applicable INSURING CLAUSE, or if a DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT is applicable, or both, the UNDERWRITER’S liability for court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in defending all or part of such legal proceeding is limited to the proportion of such court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred that the LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS for the applicable INSURING CLAUSE bears to the total of the amount demanded in such suit or legal proceeding.

Amounts paid by the UNDERWRITER for court costs and attorneys’ fees shall be in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS.

If the UNDERWRITER declines to defend the INSURED, no settlement without the prior written consent of the UNDERWRITER nor judgment against the INSURED shall determine the existence, extent or amount of coverage under this bond, and the UNDERWRITER shall not be liable for any costs, fees and expenses incurred by the INSURED.

The value of any loss of Property other than books of account or other records used by the INSURED in the conduct of its business, for which a claim is made shall be determined by the average market value of such Property on the business day immediately preceding discovery of such loss provided, however, that the value of any Property replaced by the INSURED with the consent of the UNDERWRITER and prior to the settlement of any claim for such Property shall be actual market value at the time of replacement.

In the case of a loss of interim certificates, warrants, rights or other securities, the production of which is necessary to the exercise of subscription, conversion, redemption or deposit privileges, the value of them shall be the market value of such privileges immediately preceding their expiration if said loss is not discovered until after their expiration. If no market price is quoted for such Property or for such privileges, the value shall be fixed by agreement between the parties.

The value of any loss of Property consisting of books of account or other records used by the INSURED in the conduct of its business shall be the amount paid by the INSURED for blank books, blank pages, or other materials which replace the lost books of account or other records, plus the cost of labor paid by the INSURED for the actual transcription or copying of data to reproduce such books of account or other records.

In the case of loss or damage to any office of the INSURED or to the furnishings, fixtures, stationery, supplies, equipment, safes or vaults, the UNDERWRITER shall not be liable for more than the actual cash value thereof, or for more than the actual cost of replacement or repair. The UNDERWRITER may, at its election, pay such actual cash value or make such replacement or repair. If the UNDERWRITER and the INSURED cannot agree upon the actual cash value or the cost of replacement or repair, it shall be determined by arbitration.

In the event of a loss of securities covered under this bond, the UNDERWRITER may, at its sole discretion, purchase replacement securities, tender the value of the securities in money, or issue its indemnity to effect replacement securities.

The indemnity required from the INSURED under the terms of this Section against all loss, cost or expense arising from the replacement of securities by the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity shall be:

The value referred to in a., b., and c. above is the value in accordance with SECTION 7., VALUATION OF PROPERTY, regardless of the value of such securities at the time the loss under the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity is sustained.

The UNDERWRITER is not required to issue its indemnity for any portion of a loss of securities which is not covered by this bond; however, the UNDERWRITER may do so as a courtesy to the INSURED and at its sole discretion.

The INSURED shall pay the proportion of the UNDERWRITER’S premium charge for the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity as set forth in a., b., and c. above. No portion of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY shall be used as payment of premium for any indemnity purchased by the INSURED to obtain replacement securities.

In the event of a payment under this bond, the UNDERWRITER shall be subrogated to all of the INSURED’S rights of recovery against any person or entity to the extent of such payment. On request, the INSURED shall deliver to the UNDERWRITER an assignment of the INSURED’S rights, title and interest and causes of action against any person or entity to the extent of such payment.

Recoveries, whether effected by the UNDERWRITER or by the INSURED, shall be applied net of the expense of such recovery, first to the satisfaction of the INSURED’S loss which would otherwise have been paid but for the fact that it is in excess of the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY, second, to the UNDERWRITER in satisfaction of amounts paid in settlement of the INSURED’S claim and third, to the INSURED in satisfaction of the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT. Recovery from reinsurance and/or indemnity of the UNDERWRITER shall not be deemed a recovery under this section.

At the UNDERWRITER’S request and at reasonable times and places designated by the UNDERWRITER the INSURED shall submit to examination by the UNDERWRITER and subscribe to the same under oath, produce for the UNDERWRITER’S examination all pertinent records, and cooperate with the UNDERWRITER in all matters pertaining to the loss.

The INSURED shall execute all papers and render assistance to secure to the UNDERWRITER the rights and causes of action provided for under this bond. The INSURED shall do nothing after loss to prejudice such rights or causes of action.

Coverage under this bond shall apply only as excess over any valid and collectible insurance, indemnity or suretyship obtained by or on behalf of the INSURED, a Transportation Company, or another entity on whose premises the loss occurred or which employed the person causing the loss or engaged the messenger conveying the Property involved.

If more than one corporation, or Investment Company, or any combination of them is included as the INSURED herein:

If the INSURED, other than an Investment Company, while this bond is in force, merges or consolidates with, or purchases or acquires assets or liabilities of another institution, the INSURED shall not have the coverage afforded under this bond for loss which:

Any misrepresentation, omission, concealment or incorrect statement of a material fact, in the APPLICATION or otherwise, shall be grounds for rescission of this bond.

This bond will terminate as to any one INSURED, other than an Investment Company, immediately on the taking over of such INSURED by a receiver or other liquidator or by State or Federal officials, or immediately on the filing of a petition under any State or Federal statute relative to bankruptcy or reorganization of the INSURED, or assignment for the benefit of creditors of the INSURED, or immediately upon such INSURED ceasing to exist, whether through merger into another entity, disposition of all of its assets or otherwise.

The UNDERWRITER shall refund the unearned premium computed at short rates in accordance with the standard short rate cancellation tables if terminated by the INSURED or pro rata if terminated for any other reason.

Coverage will terminate as to any Employee:
