ARTICLE III
SHARES
NO PREEMPTIVE RIGHTS
Section 4. Shares shall have no preemptive or other right to subscribe
to any additional Shares or other securities issued by the Trust.
STATUS OF SHARES AND LIMITATION OF PERSONAL LIABILITY
Section 5. Shares shall be deemed to be personal property giving only
the rights provided in this instrument. Every Shareholder by virtue of having
become a Shareholder shall be held to have expressly assented and agreed to the
terms hereof and to have become a party hereto. The death of a Shareholder
during the continuance of the Trust shall not operate to terminate the same nor
entitle the representative of any deceased Shareholder to an accounting or to
take any action in court or elsewhere against the Trust or the Trustees, but
only to the rights of said decedent under this Trust. Ownership of Shares shall
not entitle the Shareholder to any title in or to the whole or any part of the
Trust property or right to call for a partition or division of the same or for
an accounting, nor shall the ownership of Shares constitute the Shareholders
partners. Neither the Trust nor the Trustees, nor any officer, employee or agent
of the Trust shall have any power to bind personally any Shareholder, nor except
as specifically provided herein to call upon any Shareholder for the payment of
any sum of money or assessment whatsoever other than such as the Shareholder may
at any time personally agree to pay.
ARTICLE IV
THE TRUSTEES
ELECTION
Section 1. The number of Trustees shall be as provided in the Bylaws or
as fixed from time to time by the Trustees. The Shareholders may elect Trustees
at any meeting of Shareholders called by the Trustees for that purpose. Each
Trustee shall serve during the continued lifetime of the Trust until he or she
dies, resigns or is removed, or, if sooner, until the next meeting of
Shareholders called for the purpose of electing Trustees and the election and
qualification of his or her successor. Any Trustee may resign at any time by
written instrument signed by him and delivered to any officer of the Trust, to
each other Trustee or to a meeting of the Trustees. Such resignation shall be
effective upon receipt unless specified to be effective at some other time.
Except to the extent expressly provided in a written agreement with the Trust,
no Trustee resigning and no Trustee removed shall have any right to any
compensation for any

period following his or her resignation or removal, or any right to damages on
account of such removal.
ARTICLE V
SHAREHOLDERS' VOTING POWERS AND MEETINGS
Shareholders shall have such power to vote as is provided for in, and
may hold meetings and take actions pursuant to the provisions of the Bylaws.
ARTICLE VIII
INDEMNIFICATION
SHAREHOLDERS
Section 4. In case any Shareholder or former Shareholder shall be held
to be personally liable solely by reason of his or her being or having been a
Shareholder and not because of his or her acts or omissions or for some other
reason, the Shareholder or former Shareholder (or his or her heirs, executors,
administrators or other legal representatives or in the case of a corporation or
other entity, its corporate or other general successor) shall be entitled to be
held harmless from and indemnified against all loss and expense arising from
such liability, but only out of the assets of the particular series of Shares of
which he or she is or was a Shareholder.
ARTICLE IX
MISCELLANEOUS
TRUSTEES, SHAREHOLDERS, ETC. NOT PERSONALLY LIABLE; NOTICE
Section 1. All persons extending credit to, contracting with or having
any claim against the Trust or a particular series of Shares shall look only to
the assets of the Trust or the assets of that particular series of Shares for
payment under such credit, contract or claim; and neither the Shareholders nor
the Trustees, nor any of the Trust's officers, employees or agents, whether
past, present or future, shall be personally liable therefor. Nothing in this
Declaration of Trust shall protect any Trustee against any liability to which
such Trustee would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the
conduct of the office of Trustee.
Every note, bond, contract, instrument, certificate or undertaking made
or issued by the Trustees or by any officer or officers shall give notice that
this Declaration of Trust is on file with the Secretary of The Commonwealth of
Massachusetts and shall recite that the same was executed or made by or on
behalf of the Trust or by them as Trustee or Trustees or as officer or officers
and not individually and that the obligations of such instrument are not binding
upon any of them or the Shareholders individually but are binding only upon the
assets and property of the Trust, and may contain such further recital as he or
she or they may deem appropriate, but the
-7-

omission thereof shall not operate to bind any Trustee or Trustees or officer or
officers or Shareholder or Shareholders individually.
DURATION AND TERMINATION OF TRUST
Section 4. Unless terminated as provided herein, the Trust shall
continue without limitation of time. The Trust may be terminated at any time by
the vote of Shareholders holding at least a majority of the Shares of each
series entitled to vote or by the Trustees by written notice to the
Shareholders. Any series of Shares may be terminated at any time by vote of
Shareholders holding at least a majority of the Shares of such series entitled
to vote or by the Trustees by written notice to the Shareholders of such series.
Upon termination of the Trust or of any one or more series of Shares,
after paying or otherwise providing for all charges, taxes, expenses and
liabilities, whether due or accrued or anticipated, of the Trust or of the
particular series as may be determined by the Trustees, the Trust shall, in
accordance with such procedures as the Trustees consider appropriate, reduce the
remaining assets to distributable form in cash or shares or other securities, or
any combination thereof, and distribute the proceeds to the Shareholders of the
series involved, ratably according to the number of Shares of such series held
by the several Shareholders of such series on the date of termination.
AMENDMENTS
Section 7. This Declaration of Trust may be amended at any time by an
instrument in writing signed by a majority of the then Trustees when authorized
to do so by vote of Shareholders holding a majority of the Shares of each series
entitled to vote, except that an amendment which shall affect the holders of one
or more series of Shares but not the holders of all outstanding series shall be
authorized by vote of the Shareholders holding a majority of the Shares entitled
to vote of each series affected and no vote of Shareholders of a series not
affected shall be required. Amendments having the purpose of changing the name
of the Trust, of establishing, changing, or eliminating the par value of the
Shares or of supplying any omission, curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting
or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision contained herein shall
not require authorization by Shareholder vote.
