INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT made on November 8, 1996, by and between TUXIS
CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation (the "Fund") and CEF ADVISERS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Investment Manager").
WHEREAS the Fund intends to register under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a closed-end management investment
company; and
WHEREAS, the Fund desires to retain the Investment Manager to
furnish certain investment advisory and portfolio management services to the
Fund, and the Investment Manager desires to furnish such services;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and
agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed between the parties
hereto as follows:
1. The Fund hereby employs the Investment Manager to manage the
investment and reinvestment of its assets, including the regular furnishing of
advice with respect to the Fund's portfolio transactions subject at all times to
the control and oversight of the Fund's Board of Directors, for the period and
on the terms set forth in this Agreement. The Investment Manager hereby accepts
such employment and agrees during such period to render the services and to
assume the obligations herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided.
The Investment Manager shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an
independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Fund in any way, or
otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund.
2. The Fund assumes and shall pay all the expenses required for the
conduct of its business including, but not limited to, salaries of
administrative and clerical personnel, brokerage commissions, taxes, insurance,
fees of the transfer agent, custodian, legal counsel and auditors, association
fees, costs of filing, printing and mailing proxies, reports and notices to
shareholders, preparing, filing and printing the prospectus and statement of
additional information, payment of dividends, costs of stock certificates, costs
of shareholders meetings, fees of the independent directors, necessary office
space rental, all expenses relating to the registration or qualification of
shares of the Fund under applicable Blue Sky laws and reasonable fees and
expenses of counsel in connection with such registration and qualification and
such non-recurring expenses as may arise, including, without limitation,
actions, suits or proceedings affecting the Fund and the legal obligation which
the Fund may have to indemnify its officers and directors with respect thereto.
3. If requested by the Fund's Board of Directors, the Investment
Manager may provide other services to the Fund such as, without limitation, the
functions of billing, accounting, certain shareholder communications and
services, administering state and Federal registrations, filings and controls
and other administrative services. Any services so requested and performed will
be for the account of the Fund and the costs of the Investment Manager in
rendering such services shall be reimbursed by the Fund, subject
<PAGE>
to examination by those directors of the Fund who are not interested persons of
the Investment Manager or any affiliate thereof.
4. The services of the Investment Manager are not to be deemed
exclusive, and the Investment Manager shall be free to render similar services
to others in addition to the Fund so long as its services hereunder are not
impaired thereby.
5. The Investment Manager shall create and maintain all necessary
books and records in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations,
including but not limited to records required by Section 31(a) of the 1940 Act
and the rules thereunder, as the same may be amended from time to time,
pertaining to the investment management services performed by it hereunder and
not otherwise created and maintained by another party pursuant to a written
contract with the Fund. Where applicable, such records shall be maintained by
the Investment Manager for the periods and in the places required by Rule 31a-2
under the 1940 Act. The books and records pertaining to the Fund which are in
the possession of the Investment Manager shall be the property of the Fund. The
Fund, or the Fund's authorized representatives, shall have access to such books
and records at all times during the Investment Manager's normal business hours.
Upon the reasonable request of the Fund, copies of any such books and records
shall be provided by the Investment Manager to the Fund or the Fund's authorized
representatives.
6. As compensation for its services provided pursuant to this
Agreement, the Fund will pay to the Investment Manager a fee from its assets,
such fee to be computed weekly and paid monthly in arrears at the annual rate of
0.60% of the first $500 million and 0.50% over $500 million of the Fund's net
assets. If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates before the end of any
month, the fee for the period from the effective date to the end of the month or
from the beginning of such month to the date of termination, as the case may be,
shall be protected according to the proportion which such period bears to the
full month in which such effectiveness or termination occurs.
7. The Investment Manager shall direct portfolio transactions to
broker/dealers for execution on terms and at rates which it believes, in good
faith, to be reasonable in view of the overall nature and quality of services
provided by a particular broker/dealer, including brokerage and research
services and sales of shares of the Fund and shares of the other funds in the
Bull & Bear fund complex. The Investment Manager may also allocate portfolio
transactions to broker/dealers that remit a portion of their commissions as a
credit against Fund expenses. With respect to brokerage and research services,
the Investment Manager may consider in the selection of broker/dealers brokerage
or research provided and payment may be made of a fee higher than that charged
by another broker/dealer which does not furnish brokerage or research services
or which furnishes brokerage or research services deemed to be of lesser value,
so long as the criteria of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, or other applicable laws are met. Although the Investment Manager
may direct portfolio transactions without necessarily obtaining the lowest price
at which such broker/dealer, or another, may be willing to do business, the
Investment Manager shall seek the best value for the Fund on each trade that
circumstances in the market place permit, including the value inherent in
on-going relationships with quality brokers. To the extent any such brokerage or
research services may be deemed to be additional compensation to the Investment
Manager from the Fund, it is authorized by this Agreement. The Investment
Manager may place brokerage for the Fund through an affiliate of the Investment
Manager, provided that: the Fund not deal with such affiliate in any transaction
in which such affiliate acts as
<PAGE>
principal; the commissions, fees or other remuneration received by such
affiliate be reasonable and fair compared to the commissions, fees or other
remuneration paid to other brokers in connection with comparable transactions
involving similar securities being purchased or sold on a securities exchange
during a comparable period of time; and such brokerage be undertaken in
compliance with applicable law. The Investment Manager's fees under this
Agreement shall not be reduced by reason of any commissions, fees or other
remuneration received by such affiliate from the Fund.
8. The Investment Manager shall waive all or part of its fee or
reimburse the Fund monthly if and to the extent the aggregate operating expenses
of the Fund exceed the most restrictive limit imposed by any state in which
shares of the Fund are qualified for sale. In calculating the limit of operating
expenses, all expenses excludable under state regulation or otherwise shall be
excluded. If this Agreement is in effect for less than all of a fiscal year, any
such limit will be applied proportionately.
9. Subject to and in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation
and By-laws of the Fund and of the Investment Manager, it is understood that
directors, officers, agents and shareholders of the Fund are or may be
interested in the Fund as directors, officers, shareholders and otherwise, that
the Investment Manager is or may be interested in the Fund as a shareholder or
otherwise and that the effect and nature of any such interests shall be governed
by law and by the provisions, if any, of said Articles of Incorporation or
By-laws.
10. A. This Agreement shall become effective upon the date
hereinabove written provided that this Agreement shall not take effect unless it
has first been approved (i) by a vote of a majority of the Directors of the Fund
who are not parties to this Agreement, or interested persons of any such party
and (ii) by vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities.
B. Unless sooner terminated as provided herein, this Agreement shall
continue in effect for two years from the above written date. Thereafter, if not
terminated, this Agreement shall continue automatically for successive periods
of twelve months each, provided that such continuance is specifically approved
at least annually (i) by a vote of a majority of the Directors of the Fund who
are not parties to this Agreement, or interested persons of any such party and
(ii) by the Board of Directors of the Fund by the vote of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.
C. This Agreement may be terminated without penalty at any time
either by vote of the Board of Directors of the Fund or by vote of the holders
of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities on 60 days' written
notice to the Investment Manager, or by the Investment Manager on 60 days'
written notice to the Fund. This Agreement shall immediately terminate in the
event of its assignment.
11. The Investment Manager shall not be liable to the Fund or any
shareholder of the Fund for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any
loss suffered by the Fund or the Fund's shareholders in connection with the
matters to which this Agreement relates, but nothing herein contained shall be
construed to protect the Investment Manager against any liability to the Fund or
the Fund's shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross
negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless
disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement.
12. As used in this Agreement, the terms "interested person,"
"assignment," and "majority of the outstanding voting securities" shall have the
meanings provided therefor in the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations
thereunder.
<PAGE>
13. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the
parties hereto and supersedes any prior agreement, with respect to the subject
hereof whether oral or written. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held
or made invalid by a court or regulatory agency, decision, statute, rule or
otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.
14. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and
governed by the laws of the State of New York, provided, however, that nothing
herein shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the 1940 Act or any rule
or regulation promulgated thereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement
on the day and year first above written.
