SECURITY INCOME FUND
CLASS S
DISTRIBUTION PLAN
1. THE PLAN. This Distribution Plan (the "Plan"), provides for the financing by
Security Income Fund (the "Fund") of activities which are, or may be deemed
to be, primarily intended to result in the sale of class S shares of the
Fund (hereinafter called "distribution-related activities") with respect to
those Series of the Fund set forth in Appendix A to the Plan (referred to
herein as the "Series"). Appendix A, as it may be amended from time to time,
is incorporated herein by reference. The principal purpose of this Plan is
to enable the Fund to supplement expenditures by Security Distributors,
Inc., the Distributor of its shares (the "Distributor"), for
distribution-related activities. This Plan is intended to comply with the
requirements of Rule 12b-1 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (the "1940 Act").
The Board of Directors, in considering whether the Fund should implement the
Plan, has requested and evaluated such information as it deemed necessary to
make an informed determination as to whether the Plan should be implemented
and has considered such pertinent factors as it deemed necessary to form the
basis for a decision to use assets of the Fund for such purposes.
In voting to approve the implementation of the Plan, the Directors have
concluded, in the exercise of their reasonable business judgment and in
light of their respective fiduciary duties, that there is a reasonable
likelihood that the Plan will benefit the Series and its shareholders.
2. COVERED EXPENSES.
(a) The Fund may make payments under this Plan, or any agreement relating
to the implementation of this Plan, in connection with any activities
or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of Class S shares
of the Series, including, but not limited to, the following
distribution-related activities:
(i) Preparation, printing and distribution of the Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information and any supplement thereto
used in connection with the offering of Series' shares to the
public;
(ii) Printing of additional copies for use by the Distributor as
sales literature, of reports and other communications which were
prepared by the Fund for distribution to existing shareholders;
(iii) Preparation, printing and distribution of any other sales
literature used in connection with the offering of Series'
shares to the public;
(iv) Expenses incurred in advertising, promoting and selling shares
of the Series to the public;
(v) Any fees paid by the Distributor to securities dealers who have
executed a Dealer's Distribution Agreement with the Distributor
for account maintenance and personal service to shareholders (a
"Service Fee");
(vi) Commissions to sales personnel for selling shares of the Series
and interest expenses related thereto; and
(vii) Expenses incurred in promoting sales of shares of the Fund by
securities dealers, including the costs of preparation of
materials for presentations, travel expenses, costs of
entertainment, and other expenses incurred in connection with
promoting sales of Series shares by dealers.
(b) Any payments for distribution-related activities shall be made pursuant
to an agreement. As required by the Rule, each agreement relating to
the implementation of this Plan shall be in writing and subject to
approval and termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 7 of
this Plan. However, this Plan shall not obligate the Fund or any other
party to enter into such agreement.
3. AGREEMENT WITH DISTRIBUTOR. All payments to the Distributor pursuant to this
Plan shall be subject to and be made in compliance with a written agreement
between the Fund and the Distributor containing a provision that the
Distributor shall furnish the Fund with quarterly written reports of the
amounts expended and the purposes for which such expenditures were made and
such other information relating to such expenditures or to the other
distribution-related activities undertaken or proposed to be undertaken by
the Distributor during such fiscal year under its Distribution Agreement
with the Fund as the Fund may reasonably request.
4. DEALER'S DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT. The Dealer's Distribution Agreement (the
"Agreement") contemplated by Section 2(a)(v) above shall permit payment of
Service Fees to securities dealers by the Distributor only in accordance
with the provisions of this paragraph and shall have the approval of the
majority of the Board of Directors of the Fund, including the affirmative
vote of a majority of those Directors who are not interested persons of the
Fund and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation
of the Plan or any agreement related to the Plan ("Independent Directors"),
as required by the Rule. The Distributor may pay to the other party to any
Agreement a Service Fee for account maintenance and shareholder services
provided by such other party. Such Service Fee shall be payable beginning in
the second year, and for each year thereafter, quarterly, in arrears in an
amount equal to a percentage (not in excess of .000685 percent per day or
0.25 percent annually) of the aggregate net asset value of the shares held
by such other party's customers or clients at the close of business each day
as determined from time to time by the Distributor. The account maintenance
and shareholder services contemplated hereby shall include, but are not
limited to, answering inquiries regarding the Series, account designations
and addresses, maintaining the investment of such other party's customers or
clients in the Series and similar services. In determining the extent of
such other party's assistance in maintaining such investment by its
customers or clients, the Distributor may take into account the possibility
that the shares held by such customer or client would be redeemed in the
absence of such fee.
5. LIMITATIONS ON COVERED EXPENSES. The basic limitation on the expenses
incurred by each Series of the Fund identified in Appendix A (including
Service Fees) in any fiscal year of the Fund shall be one percent (1.00%) of
the Fund's average daily net assets for such fiscal year. The payments to be
paid pursuant to this Plan shall be calculated and accrued daily and paid
monthly or at such other intervals as the Directors shall determine, subject
to any applicable restrictions imposed by the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc.
6. INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS. While this Plan is in effect, the selection and
nomination of Independent Directors of the Fund shall be committed to the
discretion of the Independent Directors. Nothing herein shall prevent the
involvement of others in such selection and nomination if the final decision
on any such selection and nomination is approved by a majority of the
Independent Directors.
7. EFFECTIVENESS, CONTINUATION, TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT. This Plan and each
Agreement relating to the implementation of this Plan shall go into effect
with regard to any Series when approved:
(a) By vote of the Fund's Directors, including the affirmative vote of a
majority of the Independent Directors, cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on the Plan or the Agreement; and
(b) Upon the effectiveness of an amendment to the Fund's registration
statement, reflecting this Plan, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933.
This Plan and any Agreement relating to the implementation of this Plan
shall, unless terminated as hereinafter provided, continue in effect from
year to year only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at
least annually by vote of the Fund's Directors, including the affirmative
vote of a majority of its Independent Directors, cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on such continuance. This Plan and any
Agreement relating to the implementation of this Plan may be terminated, in
the case of the plan, at any time or, in the case of any agreement upon not
more than sixty (60) days' written notice to any other party to the
Agreement by vote of a majority of the Independent Directors or by the vote
of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
Fund. Any Agreement relating to the implementation of this Plan shall
terminate automatically in the event it is assigned. Any material amendment
to this Plan shall require approval by vote of the Fund's Directors,
including the affirmative vote of a majority of the Independent Directors,
cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such
amendment and, if such amendment materially increases the limitations on
expenses payable under the Plan, it shall also require approval by a vote of
holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the
Fund. As applied to the Fund the phrase "majority of the outstanding voting
securities" shall have the meaning specified in Section 2(a) of the 1940
Act.
In the event this Plan should be terminated by the shareholders or Directors
of the Fund, the payments paid to the Distributor pursuant to the Plan up to
the date of termination shall be retained by the Distributor. Any expenses
incurred by the Distributor in excess of those payments will be the sole
responsibility of the Distributor.
8. RECORDS. The Fund shall preserve copies of this Plan and any related
Agreements and all reports made pursuant to Section 3 hereof, for a period
of not less than six (6) years from the date of this Plan, any such
Agreement or any such report, as the case may be, the first two years in an
easily accessible place.
