                   General.  The Charter of the Corporation provides that
              to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland or federal law,
              no director of officer of the Corporation shall be personally
              liable to the Corporation or the holders of Shares for money
              damages and each director and officer shall be indemnified by
              the Corporation; provided, however, that nothing herein shall
              be deemed to protect any director or officer of the
              Corporation against any liability to the Corporation of the
              holders of Shares to which such director or officer would
              otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
              faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties
              involved in the conduct of his or her office.

              Article X, Section 10.01 of the Registrant's By-Laws provides
          as follows:


















          PAGE 10
              Section 10.01.  Indemnification and Payment of Expenses in
          Advance:  The Corporation shall indemnify any individual
          ("Indemnitee") who is a present or former director, officer,
          employee, or agent of the Corporation, or who is 
          or has been serving at the request of the Corporation as a
          director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
          partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, who, by
          reason of his position was, is, or is threatened to be made a
          party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or
          proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or
          investigative (hereinafter collectively referred to as a
          "Proceeding") against any judgments, penalties, fines,
          settlements, and reasonable expenses (including attorneys' fees)
          incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding, to
          the fullest extent that such indemnification may be lawful under
          Maryland law.  The Corporation shall pay any reasonable expenses
          so incurred by such Indemnitee in defending a Proceeding in
          advance of the final disposition thereof to the fullest extent
          that such advance payment may be lawful under Maryland law. 
          Subject to any applicable limitations and requirements set forth
          in the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation and in 
          these By-Laws, any payment of indemnification or advance of
          expenses shall be made in accordance with the procedures set
          forth in Maryland law.

              Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall protect
          or purport to protect any Indemnitee against any liability to
          which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful
          misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard
          of the duties involved in the conduct of his office ("Disabling
          Conduct").

              Anything in this Article X to the contrary notwithstanding,
          no indemnification shall be made by the Corporation to any
          Indemnitee unless:

              (a)  there is a final decision on the merits by a court or
                   other body before whom the Proceeding was brought that
                   the Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling
                   Conduct; or

              (b)  in the absence of such a decision, there is a reasonable
                   determination, based upon a review of the facts, that
                   the Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling
                   Conduct, which determination shall be made by:




















          PAGE 11
                  (i)  the vote of a majority of a quorum of directors who
                       are neither "interested persons" of the Corporation
                       as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment
                       Company Act, nor parties to the Proceeding; or

                 (ii)  an independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

               Anything in this Article X to the contrary notwithstanding,
          any advance of expenses by the Corporation to any Indemnitee
          shall be made only upon the undertaking by such Indemnitee to
          repay the advance unless it is ultimately determined that such
          Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification as above provided, and
          only if one of the following conditions is met:

               (a)  the Indemnitee provides a security for his undertaking;
                    or

               (b)  the Corporation shall be insured against losses arising
                    by reason of any lawful advances; or

               (c)  there is a determination, based on a review of readily
                    available facts, that there is reason to believe that
                    the Indemnitee will ultimately be found entitled to
                    indemnification, which determination shall be made by:

                  (i)  a majority of a quorum of directors who are neither
                       "interested persons" of the Corporation as defined
                       in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act,
                       nor parties to the Proceeding; or

                 (ii)  an independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

                  Section 10.02 of the Registrant's By-Laws provides as
               follows:

               Section 10.02.  Insurance of Officers, Directors, Employees
          and Agents:  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable
          Maryland law and by Section 17(h) of the Investment Company Act,
          as from time to time amended, the 
          Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
          person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of
          the Corporation, or who is or was serving at the request of the
          Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another
          corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other
          enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and
          incurred by him in or arising out of his position, whether or not
          the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against 


















          PAGE 12
          such liability.

               Insofar as indemnification for liability under the
          Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers
          and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
          foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been
          advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
          Commission such indemnification is against public policy as
          expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the
          event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
          (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
          paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
          Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
          proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling
          person in connection with the securities being registered, the
          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 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.

          Manager.
