Item 25. Indemnification
---------------
Article X, Section 10.02 of Registrant's Delaware Trust Instrument, as amended,
incorporated herein as Exhibit (a)(2) hereto, provides for the indemnification
of Registrant's Trustees and officers, as follows:
Section 10.02 Indemnification.
(a) Subject to the exceptions and limitations contained in Subsection
10.02(b):
(i) every person who is, or has been, a Trustee or officer of the
Trust (hereinafter referred to as a "Covered Person") shall be indemnified by
the Trust to the fullest extent permitted by law against liability and against
all expenses reasonably incurred or paid by him in connection with any claim,
action, suit or proceeding in which he becomes involved as a party or otherwise
by virtue of his being or having been a Trustee or officer and against amounts
paid or incurred by him in the settlement thereof;
(ii) the words "claim," "action," "suit," or "proceeding" shall
apply to all claims, actions, suits or proceedings (civil, criminal or other,
including appeals), actual or threatened while in office or thereafter, and the
words "liability" and "expenses" shall include, without limitation, attorneys'
fees, costs, judgments, amounts paid in settlement, fines, penalties and other
liabilities.
(b) No indemnification shall be provided hereunder to a Covered Person:
(i) who shall have been adjudicated by a court or body before which
the proceeding was brought (A) to be liable to the Trust or its Shareholders by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard
of the duties involved in the conduct of his office or (B) not to have acted in
good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of
the Trust; or
(ii) in the event of a settlement, unless there has been a
determination that such Trustee or officer did not engage in willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties
involved in the conduct of his office, (A) by the court or other body approving
the settlement; (B) by at least a majority of those Trustees who are neither
Interested Persons of the Trust nor are parties to the matter based upon a
review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry); or
(C) by written opinion of independent legal counsel based upon a review of
readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry).
(c) The rights of indemnification herein provided may be insured against by
policies maintained by the Trust, shall be severable, shall not be exclusive of
or affect any other rights to which any Covered Person may now or hereafter be
entitled, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Covered Person
and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of
such a person. Nothing contained herein shall affect any rights to
indemnification to which Trust personnel, other than Covered Persons, and other
persons may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law.
(d) Expenses in connection with the preparation and presentation of a
defense to any claim, action, suit or proceeding of the character described in
Subsection (a) of this Section 10.02 may be paid by the Trust or Series from
time to time prior to final disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking
by or on behalf of such Covered Person that such amount will be paid over by him
to the Trust or Series if it is ultimately determined that he is not entitled to
indemnification under this Section 10.02; provided, however, that either (i)
such Covered Person shall have provided appropriate security for such
undertaking, (ii) the Trust is insured against losses arising out of any such
advance payments or (iii) either a majority of the Trustees who are neither
Interested Persons of the Trust nor parties to the matter,
C-4
<PAGE>
or independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall have determined, based
upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a trial-type inquiry or
full investigation), that there is reason to believe that such Covered Person
will be found entitled to indemnification under this Section 10.02."
Indemnification of the Fund's principal underwriter, custodian, fund accountant,
and transfer agent is provided for, respectively, in Section V of the
Distribution Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 6(a) hereto, Section
28 of the Custody Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 8(a) hereto,
Section 5 of the Fund Accounting Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit
9(d) hereto, and Section 7 of the Transfer Agency Agreement incorporated by
reference as Exhibit 9(c) hereto. Registrant has obtained from a major insurance
carrier a trustees' and officers' liability policy covering certain types of
errors and omissions. In no event will Registrant indemnify any of its trustees,
officers, employees or agents against any liability to which such person would
otherwise be subject by reason of his willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross
negligence in the performance of his duties, or by reason of his reckless
disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office or under his
agreement with Registrant. Registrant will comply with Rule 484 under the
Securities Act of 1933 and Release 11330 under the Investment Company Act of
1940 in connection with any indemnification.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of
1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers, and controlling persons or
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Registrant has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer, or controlling
person of Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or
proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer, or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
