Common use of Series or Class Clause in Contracts

Series or Class. The establishment of any Series or Class of Shares shall be effective upon the adoption by the Trustees of a resolution that sets forth the designation of, or otherwise identifies, such Series or Class, whether directly in such resolution or by reference to, or approval of, another document that sets forth the designation of, or otherwise identifies, such Series or Class including any registration statement of the Trust or any Series, any amendment and/or restatement of this Declaration or as otherwise provided in such resolution. The relative rights and preferences of each Series and each Class shall be as set forth herein and as set forth in any registration statement of the Trust or any Series relating thereto, unless otherwise provided in the resolution establishing such Series or Class; provided, that all Shares shall be identical except for such variations as shall be fixed and determined between different Series or Classes by the Trustees in establishing and designating such Class or Series. All references to Shares in this Declaration shall be deemed to be Shares of the Trust or any or all Series or Classes as the context may require. The Trust shall maintain separate and distinct records for each Series and hold and account for the assets thereof separately from the other assets of the Trust or of any other Series. A Series may issue any number of Shares or any Class thereof and need not issue Shares. Each holder of Shares of a Series or a Class thereof shall be entitled to receive his pro rata share of all distributions made with respect to such Series or Class. Upon redemption of a Shareholder’s Shares of a Series, such Shareholder shall be paid solely out of the funds and property of such Series. The Trustees may adopt and change the name of any Series or Class without Shareholder approval.
