The actual aggregate sales price for which such shares were sold was $ 337,104.
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996, the actual aggregate redemption
price of securities redeemed by the Registrant (87,492 shares) was $ 2,099,429.
No portion of such aggregate redemption price has been applied by the Registrant
pursuant to Section 24(e) (1) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Pursuant to
Rule 24f-2(c) and to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, the filing fee
with respect to such shares is calculated as follows:$ 337,104 - $ 2,099,429 =
$( 1,762,325). $( 1,762,325) x .00030303 = $ (534.04). No minimum filing fee,
therefore, $0.00 applied.
