                           1934, as amended from time to time;"

                  With the addition of new Section 1.2(j) above, existing

                  the Trustees or committee, as the case may be, without a
                  meeting, provided that the writing or writings are filed with
                  the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee."

         5. A new Section 4.7 is hereby added to the Restated Agreement to read

                  "Section 4.7. Independent or Disinterested Trustee. A Trustee
                  who is not an interested person of the Trust shall be deemed
                  to be independent and disinterested under the Delaware Act and
                  other applicable Delaware law when making any determinations
                  or taking any action as a Trustee. Service by a person as a
                  trustee or a director of one or more trusts, corporations or
                  other entities of a fund complex shall not be considered in
                  determining whether a trustee is independent or disinterested
                  under the Delaware Act and other applicable Delaware law."

         6. Schedule A of the Restated Agreement is hereby amended and restated
