ARTICLE II.

Purpose of Trust

The purpose of the Trust is to conduct, operate and carry on the
business of a management investment company registered under the 1940 Act
through one or more Series investing primarily in securities.

ARTICLE III.

Section 1. Division of Beneficial Interest. The beneficial interest
in the Trust shall at all times be divided into an unlimited number of Shares,
with a par value of $ .01 per Share. The Trustees may authorize the division of
Shares into separate Series and the division of Series into separate classes of
Shares. The different Series shall be established and designated, and the
variations in the relative rights and preferences as between the different
Series shall be fixed and determined, by the Trustees. If only one or no Series
(or classes) shall be established, the Shares shall have the rights and
preferences provided for herein and in Article III, Section 6 hereof to the
extent relevant and not otherwise provided for herein, and all references to
Series (and classes) shall be construed (as the context may require) to refer to
the Trust.

Subject to the provisions of Section 6 of this Article III, each
Share shall have voting rights as provided in Article V hereof, and holders of
the Shares of any Series shall be entitled to receive dividends, when, if and as
declared with respect thereto in the manner provided in Article VI, Section 1
hereof. No Shares shall have any priority or preference over any other Share of
the same Series with respect to dividends or distributions upon termination of
the Trust or of such Series made pursuant to Article VIII, Section 4 hereof. All
dividends and distributions shall be made ratably among all Shareholders of a
particular (class of a) Series from the assets held with respect to such Series
according to the number of Shares of such (class of such) Series held of record
by such Shareholder on the record date for any dividend or distribution or on
the date of termination, as the case may be. Shareholders shall have no
preemptive or other right to subscribe to any additional Shares or other
securities issued by the Trust or any Series. The Trustees may from time to time
divide or combine the Shares of any particular Series into a greater or lesser
number of Shares of that Series without thereby materially changing the
proportionate beneficial interest of the Shares of that Series in the assets
held with respect to that Series or materially affecting the rights of Shares of
any other Series.

Section 2. Ownership of Shares. The ownership of Shares shall be
recorded on the books of the Trust or a transfer or similar agent for the Trust,
which books shall be maintained separately for the Shares of each Series (or
class). No certificates certifying the ownership of Shares shall be issued
except as the Board of Trustees may otherwise determine from time to time. The
Trustees may make such rules as they consider appropriate for the transfer of
Shares of each Series (or class) and similar matters. The record books of the
Trust as kept by the Trust or any transfer or similar agent, as the case may be,
shall be conclusive as to who are the Shareholders of each Series (or class) and
as to the number of Shares of each Series (or class) held from time to time by
each.

Section 3. Investments in the Trust. Investments may be accepted by
the Trust from such Persons, at such times, on such terms, and for such
consideration as the Trustees from time to time may authorize. Each investment
shall be credited to the individual Shareholder's account in the form of full
and fractional Shares of the Trust, in such Series (or class) as the purchaser
shall select, at the net asset value per Share next determined for such Series
(or class) after receipt of the investment; provided, however, that the Trustees
may, in their sole discretion, impose a sales charge upon investments in the
Trust.

Section 4. Status of Shares and Limitation of Personal Liability.
Shares shall be deemed to be personal property giving only the rights provided
in this instrument. Every Shareholder by virtue of having become a Shareholder
shall be held to have expressly assented and agreed to the terms hereof and to
have become a party hereto. The death of a Shareholder during the existence of
the Trust shall not operate to terminate the Trust, nor entitle the
representative of any deceased Shareholder to an accounting or to take any
action in court or elsewhere against the Trust or the Trustees, but entitles
such representative only to the rights of said deceased Shareholder under this
Trust. Ownership of Shares shall not entitle the Shareholder to any title in or
to the whole or any part of the Trust Property or right to call for a partition
or division of the same or for an accounting, nor shall the ownership of Shares
constitute the Shareholders as partners. Neither the Trust nor the Trustees, nor
any officer, employee or agent of the Trust shall have any power to bind
personally any Shareholders, nor, except as specifically provided herein, to
call upon any Shareholder for the payment of any sum of money or assessment
whatsoever other than such as the Shareholder may at any time personally agree
to pay.

Section 5. Power of Board of Trustees to Change Provisions Relating to
Shares. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Declaration of Trust and
without limiting the power of the Board of Trustees to amend the Declaration of
Trust as provided elsewhere herein, the Board of Trustees shall have the power
to amend this Declaration of Trust, at any time and from time to time, in such
manner as the Board of Trustees may determine in their sole discretion, without
the need for Shareholder action, so as to add to, delete, replace or otherwise
modify any provisions relating to the Shares contained in this Declaration of
Trust, provided that before adopting any such amendment without Shareholder
approval the Board of Trustees shall determine that it is consistent with the
fair and equitable treatment of all Shareholders or that Shareholder approval is
not otherwise required by the 1940 Act or other applicable law. If Shares have
been issued, Shareholder approval shall be required to adopt any amendments to
this Declaration of Trust which would adversely affect to a material degree the
rights and preferences of the Shares of any Series (or class) or to increase or
decrease the par value of the Shares of any Series (or class).

Subject to the foregoing Paragraph, the Board of Trustees may amend
the Declaration of Trust to amend any of the provisions set forth in paragraphs
(a) through (i) of Section 6 of this Article III.

Section 6. Establishment and Designation of Shares. The
establishment and designation of any Series (or class) of Shares shall be
effective upon the resolution by a majority of the then Trustees, adopting a
resolution which sets forth such establishment and designation and the relative
rights and preferences of such Series (or class). Each such resolution shall be
incorporated herein by reference upon adoption.

Shares of each Series (or class) established pursuant to this
Section 6, unless otherwise provided in the resolution establishing such Series,
shall have the following relative rights and preferences:

(a) Assets Held with Respect to a Particular Series. All consideration
received by the Trust for the issue or sale of Shares of a particular Series,
together with all assets in which such consideration is invested or reinvested,
all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof from whatever source
derived, including, without limitation, any proceeds derived from the sale,
exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from
any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be, shall
irrevocably be held with respect to that Series for all purposes, subject only
to the rights of creditors, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account
of the Trust. Such consideration, assets, income, earnings, profits and proceeds
thereof, from whatever source derived, including, without limitation, any
proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any
funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds, in whatever
form the same may be, are herein referred to as "assets held with respect to"
that Series. In the event that there are any assets, income, earnings, profits
and proceeds thereof, funds or payments which are not readily identifiable as
assets held with respect to any particular Series (collectively "General
Assets"), the Trustees shall allocate such General Assets to, between or among
any one or more of the Series in such manner and on such basis as the Trustees,
in their sole discretion, deem fair and equitable, and any General Asset so
allocated to a particular Series shall be held with respect to that Series. Each
such allocation by the Trustees shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Shareholders of all Series for all purposes.

(b) Liabilities Held with Respect to a Particular Series. The assets
of the Trust held with respect to each particular Series shall be charged
against the liabilities of the Trust held with respect to that Series and all
expenses, costs, charges and reserves attributable to that Series, and any
general liabilities of the Trust which are not readily identifiable as being
held with respect to any particular Series shall be allocated and charged by the
Trustees to and among any one or more of the Series in such manner and on such
basis as the Trustees in their sole discretion deem fair and equitable. The
liabilities, expenses, costs, charges, and reserves so charged to a Series are
herein referred to as "liabilities held with respect to" that Series. Each
allocation of liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves by the Trustees
shall be conclusive and binding upon the holders of a11 Series for all purposes.
All Persons who have extended credit which has been allocated to a particular
Series, or who have a claim or contract which has been allocated to any
particular Series, shall look, and shall be required by contract to look
exclusively, to the assets of that particular Series for payment of such credit,
claim, or contract. In the absence of an express contractual agreement so
limiting the claims of such creditors, claimants and contract providers, each
creditor, claimant and contract provider will be deemed nevertheless to have
impliedly agreed to such limitation unless an express provision to the contrary
has been incorporated in the written contract or other document establishing the
claimant relationship.

(c) Dividends, Distributions, Redemptions, and Repurchases.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Declaration of Trust, including,
without limitation, Article VI, no dividend or distribution including, without
limitation, any distribution paid upon termination of the Trust or of any Series
(or class) with respect to, nor any redemption or repurchase of, the Shares of
any Series (or class) shall be effected by the Trust other than from the assets
held with respect to such Series, nor, except as specifically provided in
Section 7 of this Article III, shall any Shareholder of any particular Series
otherwise have any right or claim against the assets held with respect to any
other Series except to the extent that such Shareholder has such a right or
claim hereunder as a Shareholder of such other Series. The Trustees shall have
full discretion, to the extent not inconsistent with the 1940 Act, to determine
which items shall be treated as income and which items as capital; and each such
determination and allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Shareholders.

(d) Voting. All Shares of the Trust entitled to vote on a matter
shall vote separately by Series (and, if applicable, by class): that is, the
Shareholders of each Series (or class) shall have the right to approve or
disapprove matters affecting the Trust and each respective Series (or class) as
if the Series (or classes) were separate companies. There are, however, two
exceptions to voting by separate Series (or classes). First, if the 1940 Act
requires all Shares of the Trust to be voted in the aggregate without
differentiation between the separate Series (or classes), then all the Trust's
Shares shall be entitled to vote on a one-vote-per-Share basis. Second, if any
matter affects only the interests of some but not all Series (or classes), then
only the Shareholders of such affected Series (or classes) shall be entitled to
vote on the matter.

(e) Equality. All the Shares of each particular Series shall
represent an equal proportionate undivided interest in the assets held with
respect to that Series (subject to the liabilities held with respect to that
Series and such rights and preferences as may have been established and
designated with respect to classes of Shares within such Series), and each Share
of any particular Series shall be equal to each other Share of that Series.

(f) Fractions. Any fractional Share of a Series shall carry
proportionately all the rights and obligations of a whole share of that Series,
including rights with respect to voting, receipt of dividends and distributions,
redemption of Shares and termination of the Trust.

(g) Exchange Privilege. The Trustees shall have the authority to
provide that the holders of Shares of any Series shall have the right to
exchange said Shares for Shares of one or more other Series of Shares in
accordance with such requirements and procedures as may be established by the
Trustees.

(h) Combination of Series. The Trustees shall have the authority,
without the approval of the Shareholders of any Series unless otherwise required
by applicable law, to combine the assets and liabilities held with respect to
any two or more Series into assets and liabilities held with respect to a single
Series.

(i) Elimination of Series. At any time that there are no Shares
outstanding of any particular Series (or class) previously established and
designated, the Trustees may by resolution of a majority of the then Trustees
abolish that Series (or class) and rescind the establishment and designation
thereof.

Section 7. Indemnification of Shareholders. If any Shareholder or
former Shareholder shall be exposed to liability by reason of a claim or demand
relating to his or her being or having been a Shareholder, and not because of
his or her acts or omissions, the Shareholder or former Shareholder (or his or
her heirs, executors, administrators, or other legal representatives or in the
case of a corporation or other entity, its corporate or other general successor)
shall be entitled to be held harmless from and indemnified out of the assets of
the Trust against all loss and expense arising from such claim or demand.

ARTICLE IV.

The Board of Trustees

Section 1. Number, Election and Tenure. The number of Trustees
constituting the Board of Trustees shall be fixed from time to time by a written
instrument signed, or by resolution approved at a duly constituted meeting, by a
majority of the Board of Trustees, provided, however, that the number of
Trustees shall in no event be less than one (1) nor more than fifteen (15). The
Board of Trustees, by action of a majority of the then Trustees at a duly
constituted meeting, may fill vacancies in the Board of Trustees or remove
Trustees with or without cause. Each Trustee shall serve during the continued
lifetime of the Trust until he or she dies, resigns, is declared bankrupt or
incompetent by a court of appropriate jurisdiction, or is removed, or, if
sooner, until the next meeting of Shareholders called for the purpose of
electing Trustees and until the election and qualification of his or her
successor. Any Trustee may resign at any time by written instrument signed by
him and delivered to any officer of the Trust or to a meeting of the Trustees.
Such resignation shall be effective upon receipt unless specified to be
effective at some other time. Except to the extent expressly provided in a
written agreement with the Trust, no Trustee resigning and no Trustee removed
shall have any right to any compensation for any period following his or her
resignation or removal, or any right to damages on account of such removal. The
Shareholders may fix the number of Trustees and elect Trustees at any meeting of
Shareholders called by the Trustees for that purpose. Any Trustee may be removed
at any meeting of Shareholders by a vote of two-thirds of the outstanding Shares
of the Trust. A meeting of Shareholders for the purpose of electing or removing
one or more Trustees may be called (i) by the Trustees upon their own vote, or
(ii) upon the demand of Shareholders owning 10% or more of the Shares of the
Trust in the aggregate.

Section 2. Effect of Death, Resignation, etc. of a Trustee. The death,
declination, resignation, retirement, removal, or incapacity of one or more
Trustees, or all of them, shall not operate to annul the Trust or to revoke any
existing agency created pursuant to the terms of this Declaration of Trust.
Whenever a vacancy in the Board of Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is
filled as provided in Article IV, Section 1, the Trustees in office, regardless
of their number, shall have all the powers granted to the Trustees and shall
discharge all the duties imposed upon the Trustees by this Declaration of Trust.
As conclusive evidence of such vacancy, a written instrument certifying the
existence of such vacancy may be executed by an officer of the Trust or by a
majority of the Board of Trustees. In the event of the death, declination,
resignation, retirement, removal, or incapacity of all the then Trustees within
a short period of time and without the opportunity for at least one Trustee
being able to appoint additional Trustees to fill vacancies, the Trust's
Investment Manager(s) are empowered to appoint new Trustees subject to the
provisions of Section 16(a) of the l940 Act.

Section 3. Powers. Subject to the provisions of this Declaration of
Trust, the business of the Trust shall be managed by the Board of Trustees, and
such Board shall have all powers necessary or convenient to carry out that
responsibility including the power to engage in securities transactions of all
kinds on behalf of the Trust. Trustees in all instances shall act as principals,
and are and shall be free from the control of the Shareholders. The Trustees
shall have full power and authority to do any and all acts and to make and
execute any and all contracts and instruments that they may consider necessary
or appropriate in connection with the administration of the Trust. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Trustees may: adopt By-Laws not inconsistent with
this Declaration of Trust providing for the regulation and management of the
affairs of the Trust and may amend and repeal them to the extent that such
By-Laws do not reserve that right to the Shareholders; fill vacancies in or
remove from their number, and may elect and remove such officers and appoint and
terminate such agents as they consider appropriate; appoint from their own
number and establish and terminate one or more committees consisting of two or
more Trustees which may exercise the powers and authority of the Board of
Trustees to the extent that the Trustees determine; employ one or more
custodians of the assets of the Trust and may authorize such custodians to
employ subcustodians and to deposit all or any part of such assets in a system
or systems for the central handling of securities or with a Federal Reserve
Bank, retain a transfer agent or a shareholder servicing agent, or both; provide
for the issuance and distribution of Shares by the Trust directly or through one
or more Principal Underwriters or otherwise; redeem, repurchase and transfer
Shares pursuant to applicable law; set record dates for the determination of
Shareholders with respect to various matters; declare and pay dividends and
distributions to Shareholders of each Series from the assets of such Series;
establish from time to time, in accordance with the provisions of Article III,
Section 6 hereof, any Series (or class) of Shares, each such Series (or class)
to operate as a separate and distinct investment medium and with separately
defined investment objectives and policies and distinct investment purpose; and
in general delegate such authority as they consider desirable to any officer of
the Trust, to any committee of the Trustees and to any agent or employee of the
Trust or to any such custodian, transfer or shareholder servicing agent, or
Principal Underwriter. Any determination as to what is in the interests of the
Trust made by the Trustees in good faith shall be conclusive. In construing the
provisions of this Declaration of Trust, the presumption shall be in favor of a
grant of power to the Trustees. Unless otherwise specified or required by law,
any action by the Board of Trustees shall be deemed effective if approved or
taken by a majority of the Trustees then in office. Any action required or
permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Trustees, or any committee
thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Trustees
or committee (as the case may be) consent thereto in writing, and the writing or
writings are filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the Board of Trustees,
or committee.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Trust shall have power and
authority:

(a) To invest and reinvest cash, to hold cash uninvested, and to
subscribe for, invest in, reinvest in, purchase or otherwise acquire, own, hold,
pledge, sell, assign, transfer, exchange, distribute, write options on, lend or
otherwise deal in or dispose of contracts for the future acquisition or delivery
of fixed income or other securities, and securities of every nature and kind,
including, without limitation, all types of bonds, debentures, stocks, preferred
stocks, negotiable or non-negotiable instruments, obligations, evidences of
indebtedness, certificates of deposit or indebtedness, commercial paper,
repurchase agreements, bankers' acceptances, and other securities of any kind,
issued, created, guaranteed, or sponsored by any and all Persons, including,
without limitation, states, territories, and possessions of the United States
and the District of Columbia and any political subdivision, agency, or
instrumentality thereof, any foreign government or any political subdivision of
the U.S. Government or any foreign government, or any international
instrumentality, or by any bank or savings institution, or by any corporation or
organization organized under the laws of the United States or of any state,
territory, or possession thereof, or by any corporation or organization
organized under any foreign law, or in "when issued" contracts for any such
securities, to change the investments of the assets of the Trust; and to
exercise any and all rights, powers, and privileges of ownership or interest in
respect of any and all such investments of every kind and description,
including, without limitation, the right to consent and otherwise act with
respect thereto, with power to designate one or more Persons, to exercise any of
said rights, powers, and privileges in respect of any of said instruments;

(b) To sell, exchange, lend, pledge, mortgage, hypothecate, lease,
or write options with respect to or otherwise deal in any property rights
relating to any or all of the assets of the Trust or any Series, subject to any
requirements of the 1940 Act;

(c) To vote or give assent, or exercise any rights of ownership,
with respect to stock or other securities or property; and to execute and
deliver proxies or powers of attorney to such person or persons as the Trustees
shall deem proper, granting to such person or persons such power and discretion
with relation to securities or property as the Trustees shall deem proper;

(d) To exercise powers and right of subscription or otherwise which
in any manner arise out of ownership of securities;

(e) To hold any security or property in a form not indicating that
it is trust property, whether in bearer, unregistered or other negotiable form,
or in its own name or in the name of a custodian or subcustodian or a nominee or
nominees or otherwise or to authorize the custodian or a subcustodian or a
nominee or nominees to deposit the same in a securities depository, subject in
each case to proper safeguards according to the usual practice of investment
companies or any rules or regulations applicable thereto;

(f) To consent to, or participate in, any plan for the
reorganization, consolidation or merger of any corporation or issuer of any
security which is held in the Trust; to consent to any contract, lease,
mortgage, purchase or sale of property by such corporation or issuer; and to pay
calls or subscriptions with respect to any security held in the Trust;

(g) To join with other security holders in acting through a
committee, depositary, voting trustee or otherwise, and in that connection to
deposit any security with, or transfer any security to, any such committee,
depositary or trustee, and to delegate to them such power and authority with
relation to any security (whether or not so deposited or transferred) as the
Trustees shall deem proper, and to agree to pay, and to pay, such portion of the
expenses and compensation of such committee, depositary or trustee as the
Trustees shall deem proper;

(h) To compromise, arbitrate or otherwise adjust claims in favor of
or against the Trust or any matter in controversy, including, but not limited to
claims for taxes;

(i) To enter into joint ventures, general or limited partnerships
and any other combinations or associations;

(j) To borrow funds or other property in the name of the Trust
exclusively for Trust purposes;

(k) To endorse or guarantee the payment of any notes or other
obligations of any Person; to make contracts of guaranty or suretyship, or
otherwise assume liability for payment thereof;

(l) To purchase and pay for entirely out of Trust Property such
insurance as the Trustees may deem necessary or appropriate for the conduct of
the business, including, without limitation, insurance policies insuring the
assets of the Trust or payment of distributions and principal on its portfolio
investments, and insurance policies insuring the Shareholders, Trustees,
officers, employees, agents, investment advisers, principal underwriters, or
independent contractors of the Trust, individually against all claims and
liabilities of every nature arising by reason of holding Shares, holding, being
or having held any such office or position, or by reason of any action alleged
to have been taken or omitted by any such Person as Trustee, officer, employee,
agent, investment adviser, principal underwriter, or independent contractor,
including any action taken or omitted that may be determined to constitute
negligence, whether or not the Trust would have the power to indemnify such
Person against liability; and

(m) To adopt, establish and carry out pension, profit-sharing, share
bonus, share purchase, savings, thrift and other retirement, incentive and
benefit plans, trusts and provisions, including the purchasing of life insurance
and annuity contracts as a means of providing such retirement and other
benefits, for any or all of the Trustees, officers, employees and agents of the
Trust.

The Trust shall not be limited to investing in obligations maturing
before the possible termination of the Trust or one or more of its Series. The
Trust shall not in any way be bound or limited by any present or future law or
custom in regard to investment by fiduciaries. The Trust shall not be required
to obtain any court order to deal with any assets of the Trust or take any other
action hereunder.

Section 4. Payment of Expenses by the Trust. The Trustees are
authorized to pay or cause to be paid out of the principal or income of the
Trust or Series (or class), or partly out of the principal and partly out of
income, and to charge or allocate the same to, between or among such one or more
of the Series (or class) that may be established or designated pursuant to
Article III, Section 6, as they deem fair, all expenses, fees, charges, taxes
and liabilities incurred or arising in connection with the Trust or Series (or
class), or in connection with the management thereof, including, but not limited
to, the Trustees' compensation and such expenses and charges for the services of
the Trust's officers, employees, investment adviser or manager, principal
underwriter, auditors, counsel, custodian, transfer agent, Shareholder servicing
agent, and such other agents or independent contractors and such other expenses
and charges as the Trustees may deem necessary or proper to incur.

Section 5. Payment of Expenses by Shareholders. The Trustees shall
have the power, as frequently as they may determine, to cause each Shareholder,
or each Shareholder of any particular Series, to pay directly, in advance or
arrears, for charges of the Trust's custodian or transfer, Shareholder servicing
or similar agent, an amount fixed from time to time by the Trustees, by setting
off such charges due from such Shareholder from declared but unpaid dividends
owed such Shareholder and/or by reducing the number of shares in the account of
such Shareholder by that number of full and/or fractional Shares which
represents the outstanding amount of such charges due from such Shareholder.

Section 6. Ownership of Assets of the Trust. Title to all of the
assets of the Trust shall at all times be considered as vested in the Trust,
except that the Trustees shall have power to cause legal title to any Trust
Property to be held by or in the name of one or more of the Trustees, or in the
name of the Trust, or in the name of any other Person as nominee, on such terms
as the Trustees may determine. The right, title and interest of the Trustees in
the Trust Property shall vest automatically in each Person who may hereafter
become a Trustee. Upon the resignation, removal or death of a Trustee he or she
shall automatically cease to have any right, title or interest in any of the
Trust Property, and the right, title and interest of such Trustee in the Trust
Property shall vest automatically in the remaining Trustees. Such vesting and
cessation of title shall be effective whether or not conveyancing documents have
been executed and delivered.

Section 7. Service Contracts.

(a) Subject to such requirements and restrictions as may be set
forth in the By-Laws, the Trustees may, at any time and from time to time,
contract for exclusive or nonexclusive advisory, management and/or
administrative services for the Trust or for any Series with any corporation,
trust, association or other organization; and any such contract may contain such
other terms as the Trustees may determine, including without limitation,
authority for the Investment Manager or administrator to determine from time to
time without prior consultation with the Trustees what investments shall be
purchased, held, sold or exchanged and what portion, if any, of the assets of
the Trust shall be held uninvested and to make changes in the Trust's
investments, or such other activities as may specifically be delegated to such
party.

(b) The Trustees may also, at any time and from time to time,
contract with any corporation, trust, association or other organization,
appointing it exclusive or nonexclusive distributor or Principal Underwriter for
the Shares of one or more of the Series (or classes) or other securities to be
issued by the Trust. Every such contract shall comply with such requirements and
restrictions as may be set forth in the By-Laws; and any such contract may
contain such other terms as the Trustees may determine.

(c) The Trustees are also empowered, at any time and from time to
time, to contract with any corporations, trusts, associations or other
organizations, appointing it or them the custodian, transfer agent and/or
shareholder servicing agent for the Trust or one or more of its Series. Every
such contract shall comply with such requirements and restrictions as may be set
forth in the By-Laws or stipulated by resolution of the Trustees.

(d) The Trustees are further empowered, at any time and from time to
time, to contract with any entity to provide such other services to the Trust or
one or more of the Series, as the Trustees determine to be in the best interests
of the Trust and the applicable Series.

(e) The fact that:

(i) any of the Shareholders, Trustees, or officers of the
Trust is a shareholder, director, officer, partner, trustee,
employee, Manager, adviser, Principal Underwriter, distributor, or
affiliate or agent of or for any corporation, trust, association, or
other organization, or for any parent or affiliate of any
organization with which an advisory, management or administration
contract, or principal underwriter's or distributor's contract, or
transfer, shareholder servicing or other type of service contract
may have been or may hereafter be made, or that any such
organization, or any parent or affiliate thereof, is a Shareholder
or has an interest in the Trust, or that

(ii) any corporation, trust, association or other organization
with which an advisory, management or administration contract or
principal underwriter's or distributor's contract, or transfer,
shareholder servicing or other type of service contract may have
been or may hereafter be made also has an advisory, management or
administration contract, or principal underwriter's or distributor's
contract, or transfer, shareholder servicing or other service
contract with one or more other corporations, trust, associations,
or other organizations, or has other business or interests,

shall not affect the validity of any such contract or disqualify any
Shareholder, Trustee or officer of the Trust from voting upon or executing the
same, or create any liability or accountability to the Trust or its
Shareholders, provided approval of each such contract is made pursuant to the
requirements of the 1940 Act.

ARTICLE V

Shareholders' Voting Powers and Meetings

Section 1. Voting Powers. Subject to the provisions of Article III,
Section 6(d), the Shareholders shall have power to vote only (i) for the
election or removal of Trustees as provided in Article IV, Section 1, and (ii)
with respect to such additional matters relating to the Trust as may be required
by this Declaration of Trust, the By-Laws or any registration of the Trust with
the Commission (or any successor agency) or any state, or as the Trustees may
consider necessary or desirable. Each whole Share shall be entitled to one vote
as to any matter on which it is entitled to vote and each fractional Share shall
be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. There shall be no cumulative
voting in the election of Trustees. Shares may be voted in person or by proxy. A
proxy with respect to Shares held in the name of two or more persons shall be
valid if executed by any one of them unless at or prior to exercise of the proxy
the Trust receives a specific written notice to the contrary from any one of
them. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Shareholder shall
be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise and the burden of
proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger.

Section 2. Voting Power and Meetings. Meetings of the Shareholders may
be called by the Trustees for the purpose of electing Trustees as provided in
Article IV, Section 1 and for such other purposes as may be prescribed by law,
by this Declaration of Trust or by the By-Laws. Meetings of the Shareholders may
also be called by the Trustees from time to time for the purpose of taking
action upon any other matter deemed by the Trustees to be necessary or
desirable. A meeting of Shareholders may be held at any place designated by the
Trustees. Written notice of any meeting of Shareholders shall be given or caused
to be given by the Trustees by mailing such notice at least seven (7) days
before such meeting, postage prepaid, stating the time and place of the meeting,
to each Shareholder at the Shareholder's address as it appears on the records of
the Trust. Whenever notice of a meeting is required to be given to a Shareholder
under this Declaration of Trust or the By-Laws, a written waiver thereof,
executed before or after the meeting by such Shareholder or his or her attorney
thereunto authorized and filed with the records of the meeting, shall be deemed
equivalent to such notice.

Section 3. Quorum and Required Vote. Except when a larger quorum is
required by applicable law, by the By-Laws or by this Declaration of Trust,
forty percent (40%) of the Shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum at
a Shareholders' meeting. When any one or more Series (or classes) is to vote as
a single class separate from any other Shares, forty percent (40%) of the Shares
of each such Series (or classes) entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum at a
Shareholder's meeting of that Series. Any meeting of Shareholders may be
adjourned from time to time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon the
question of adjourning a meeting to another date and time, whether or not a
quorum is present, and the meeting may be held as adjourned within a reasonable
time after the date set for the original meeting without further notice. Subject
to the provisions of Article III, Section 6(d), when a quorum is present at any
meeting, a majority of the Shares voted shall decide any questions and a
plurality shall elect a Trustee, except when a larger vote is required by any
provision of this Declaration of Trust or the By-Laws or by applicable law.

Section 4. Action by Written Consent. Any action taken by
Shareholders may be taken without a meeting if Shareholders holding a majority
of the Shares entitled to vote on the matter (or such larger proportion thereof
as shall be required by any express provision of this Declaration of Trust or by
the By-Laws) and holding a majority (or such larger proportion as aforesaid) of
the Shares of any Series (or class) entitled to vote separately on the matter
consent to the action in writing and such written consents are filed with the
records of the meetings of Shareholders. Such consent shall be treated for all
purposes as a vote taken at a meeting of Shareholders.

Section 5. Record Dates. For the purpose of determining the
Shareholders of any Series (or class) who are entitled to vote or act at any
meeting or any adjournment thereof, the Trustees may from time to time fix a
time, which shall be not more than ninety (90) days before the date of any
meeting of Shareholders, as the record date for determining the Shareholders of
such Series (or class) having the right to notice of and to vote at such meeting
and any adjournment thereof, and in such case only Shareholders of record on
such record date shall have such right, notwithstanding any transfer of shares
on the books of the Trust after the record date. For the purpose of determining
the Shareholders of any Series (or class) who are entitled to receive payment of
any dividend or of any other distribution, the Trustees may from time to time
fix a date, which shall be before the date for the payment of such dividend or
such other payment, as the record date for determining the Shareholders of such
Series (or class) having the right to receive such dividend or distribution.
Without fixing a record date the Trustees may for voting and/or distribution
purposes close the register or transfer books for one or more Series for all or
any part of the period between a record date and a meeting of Shareholders or
the payment of a distribution. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as
precluding the Trustees from setting different record dates for different Series
(or classes).

Section 6. Additional Provisions. The By-Laws may include further
provisions for Shareholders' votes and meetings and related matters.

ARTICLE VI.

Net Asset Value, Distributions, and Redemptions

Section 1. Determination of Net Asset Value, Net Income, and
Distributions. Subject to Article III, Section 6 hereof, the Trustees, in their
absolute discretion, may prescribe and shall set forth in the By-Laws or in a
duly adopted vote of the Trustees such bases and time for determining the per
Share or net asset value of the Shares of any Series or net income attributable
to the Shares of any Series, or the declaration and payment of dividends and
distributions on the Shares of any Series, as they may deem necessary or
desirable.

Section 2. Redemptions and Repurchases. The Trust shall purchase such
Shares as are offered by any Shareholder for redemption, upon the presentation
of a proper instrument of transfer together with a request directed to the Trust
or a Person designated by the Trust that the Trust purchase such Shares or in
accordance with such other procedures for redemption as the Trustees may from
time to time authorize; and the Trust will pay therefor the net asset value
thereof, in accordance with the By-Laws and applicable law. Payment for said
Shares shall be made by the Trust to the Shareholder within seven days after the
date on which the request is made in proper form. The obligation set forth in
this Section 2 is subject to the provision that in the event that any time the
New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange") is closed for other than weekends or
holidays, or if permitted by the Rules of the Commission during periods when
trading on the Exchange is restricted or during any emergency which makes it
impracticable for the Trust to dispose of the investments of the applicable
Series or to determine fairly the value of the net assets held with respect to
such Series or during any other period permitted by order of the Commission for
the protection of investors, such obligations may be suspended or postponed by
the Trustees.

The redemption price may in any case or cases be paid wholly or
partly in kind if the Trustees determine that such payment is advisable in the
interest of the remaining Shareholders of the Series for which the Shares are
being redeemed. Subject to the foregoing, the fair value, selection and quantity
of securities or other property so paid or delivered as all or part of the
redemption price may be determined by or under authority of the Trustees. In no
case shall the Trust be liable for any delay of any corporation or other Person
in transferring securities selected for delivery as all or part of any payment
in kind.

Section 3. Redemptions at the Option of the Trust. The Trust shall
have the right at its option and at any time to redeem Shares of any Shareholder
at the net asset value thereof as described in Section 1 of this Article VI: (i)
if at such time such Shareholder owns Shares of any Series having an aggregate
net asset value of less than an amount determined from time to time by the
Trustees prior to the acquisition of said Shares; or (ii) to the extent that
such Shareholder owns Shares of a particular Series equal to or in excess of a
percentage of the outstanding Shares of that Series determined from time to time
by the Trustees; or (iii) to the extent that such Shareholder owns Shares equal
to or in excess of a percentage, determined from time to time by the Trustees,
of the outstanding Shares of the Trust or of any Series.

ARTICLE VII

Compensation and Limitation of Liability of Trustees

Section 1. Compensation. The Trustees as such shall be entitled to
reasonable compensation from the Trust, and they may fix the amount of such
compensation. Nothing herein shall in any way prevent the employment of any
Trustee for advisory, management, legal, accounting, investment banking or other
services and payment for the same by the Trust.

Section 2. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability. The Trustees
shall not be responsible or liable in any event for any neglect or wrong-doing
of any officer, agent, employee, Manager or Principal Underwriter of the Trust,
nor shall any Trustee be responsible for the act or omission of any other
Trustee, and the Trust out of its assets shall indemnify and hold harmless each
and every Trustee from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever
arising out of or related to each Trustee's performance of his or her duties as
a Trustee of the Trust; provided that nothing herein contained shall indemnify,
hold harmless or protect any Trustee from or against any liability to the Trust
or any Shareholder to which he or she would otherwise be subject by reason of
wilful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the
duties involved in the conduct of his or her office.

Every note, bond, contract, instrument, certificate or undertaking
and every other act or thing whatsoever issued, executed or done by or on behalf
of the Trust or the Trustees or any of them in connection with the Trust shall
be conclusively deemed to have been issued, executed or done only in or with
respect to their or his or her capacity as Trustees or Trustee, and such
Trustees or Trustee shall not be personally liable thereon.

Section 3. Trustee's Good Faith Action, Expert Advice, No Bond or
Surety. The exercise by the Trustees of their powers and discretions hereunder
shall be binding upon everyone interested. A Trustee shall be liable to the
Trust and to any Shareholder solely for his or her own wilful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the
conduct of the office of Trustee, and shall not be liable for errors of judgment
or mistakes of fact or law. The Trustees may take advice of counsel or other
experts with respect to the meaning and operation of this Declaration of Trust,
and shall be under no liability for any act or omission in accordance with such
advice nor for failing to follow such advice. The Trustees shall not be required
to give any bond as such, nor any surety if a bond is required.

Section 4. Insurance. The Trustees shall be entitled and empowered
to the fullest extent permitted by law to purchase with Trust assets insurance
for liability and for all expenses reasonably incurred or paid or expected to be
paid by a Trustee or officer in connection with any claim, action, suit or
proceeding in which he or she becomes involved by virtue of his or her capacity
or former capacity with the Trust, whether or not the Trust would have the power
to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this
Article.

ARTICLE VIII.

Miscellaneous

Section 1. Liability of Third Persons Dealing with Trustees. No
Person dealing with the Trustees shall be bound to make any inquiry concerning
the validity of any transaction made or to be made by the Trustees or to see to
the application of any payments made or property transferred to the Trust or
upon its order.

Section 2. Termination of Trust or Series. Unless terminated as
provided herein, the Trust shall continue without limitation of time. The Trust
may be terminated at any time by vote of a majority of the Shares of each Series
entitled to vote, voting separately by Series, or by the Trustees by written
notice to the Shareholders. Any Series may be terminated at any time by vote of
a majority of the Shares of that Series or by the Trustees by written notice to
the Shareholders of that Series.

Upon termination of the Trust (or any Series, as the case may be),
after paying or otherwise providing for all charges, taxes, expenses and
liabilities held, severally, with respect to each Series (or the applicable
Series, as the case may be), whether due or accrued or anticipated as may be
determined by the Trustees, the Trust shall, in accordance with such procedures
as the Trustees consider appropriate, reduce the remaining assets held,
severally, with respect to each Series (or the applicable Series, as the case
may be), to distributable form in cash or shares or other securities, or any
combination thereof, and distribute the proceeds held with respect to each
Series (or the applicable Series, as the case may be), to the Shareholders of
that Series, as a Series, ratably according to the number of Shares of that
Series held by the several Shareholders on the date of termination.

Section 3. Merger and Consolidation. The Trustees may cause (i) the
Trust or one or more of its Series to the extent consistent with applicable law
to be merged into or consolidated with another Trust or company, (ii) the Shares
of the Trust or any Series to be converted into beneficial interests in another
business trust (or series thereof) created pursuant to this Section 3 of Article
VIII, or (iii) the Shares to be exchanged under or pursuant to any state or
federal statute to the extent permitted by law. Such merger or consolidation,
Share conversion or Share exchange must be authorized by vote of a majority of
the outstanding Shares of the Trust, as a whole, or any affected Series, as may
be applicable; provided that in all respects not governed by statute or
applicable law, the Trustees shall have power to prescribe the procedure
necessary or appropriate to accomplish a sale of assets, merger or consolidation
including the power to create one or more separate business trusts to which all
or any part of the assets, liabilities, profits or losses of the Trust may be
transferred and to provide for the conversion of Shares of the Trust or any
Series into beneficial interests in such separate business trust or trusts (or
series thereof).

Section 4. Amendments. This Declaration of Trust may be restated
and/or amended at any time by an instrument in writing signed by a majority of
the then Trustees and, if required, by approval of such amendment by
Shareholders in accordance with Article V, Section 3 hereof. Any such
restatement and/or amendment hereto shall be effective immediately upon
execution and approval. The Certificate of Trust of the Trust may be restated
and/or amended by a similar procedure, and any such restatement and/or amendment
shall be effective immediately upon filing with the Office of the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware or upon such future date as may be stated
therein.

Section 5. Filing of Copies, References, Headings. The original or a
copy of this instrument and of each restatement and/or amendment hereto shall be
kept at the office of the Trust where it may be inspected by any Shareholder.
Anyone dealing with the Trust may rely on a certificate by an officer of the
Trust as to whether or not any such restatements and/or amendments have been
made and as to any matters in connection with the Trust hereunder; and, with the
same effect as if it were the original, may rely on a copy certified by an
officer of the Trust to be a copy of this instrument or of any such restatements
and/or amendments. In this instrument and in any such restatements and/or
amendment, references to this instrument, and all expressions like "herein,"
"hereof" and "hereunder," shall be deemed to refer to this instrument as amended
or affected by any such restatements and/or amendments. Headings are placed
herein for convenience of reference only and shall not be taken as a part hereof
or control or affect the meaning, construction or effect of this instrument.
Whenever the singular number is used herein, the same shall include the plural;
and the neuter, masculine and feminine genders shall include each other, as
applicable. This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts each
of which shall be deemed an original.

Section 6. Applicable Law. This Agreement and Declaration of Trust
is created under and is to be governed by and construed and administered
according to the laws of the State of Delaware and the Delaware Business Trust
Act, as amended from time to time (the "Act"). The Trust shall be a Delaware
business trust pursuant to such Act, and without limiting the provisions hereof,
the Trust may exercise all powers which are ordinarily exercised by such a
business trust.

Section 7. Provisions in Conflict with Law or Regulations.

(a) The provisions of the Declaration of Trust are severable, and if
the Trustees shall determine, with the advice of counsel, that any of such
provisions is in conflict with the 1940 Act, the regulated investment company
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or with other applicable laws and
regulations, the conflicting provision shall be deemed never to have constituted
a part of the Declaration of Trust; provided, however, that such determination
shall not affect any of the remaining provisions of the Declaration of Trust or
render invalid or improper any action taken or omitted prior to such
determination.

(b) If any provision of the Declaration of Trust shall be held
invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall attach only to such provision in such jurisdiction and
shall not in any manner affect such provision in any other jurisdiction or any
other provision of the Declaration of Trust in any jurisdiction.

Section 8. Business Trust Only. It is the intention of the Trustees
to create a business trust pursuant to the Delaware Business Trust Act, as
amended from time to time (the "Act"), and thereby to create only the
relationship of trustee and beneficial owners within the meaning of such Act
between the Trustees and each Shareholder. It is not the intention of the
Trustees to create a general partnership, limited partnership, joint stock
association, corporation, bailment, or any form of legal relationship other than
a business trust pursuant to such Act. Nothing in this Declaration of Trust
shall be construed to make the Shareholders, either by themselves or with the
Trustees, partners or members of a joint stock association.

Section 9. Use of the name "Franklin". The name "Franklin" and all
rights to the use of the name "Franklin" belongs to Franklin Resources, Inc.
("Franklin"), the sponsor of the Trust. Franklin has consented to the use by the
Trust of the identifying word "Franklin" and has granted to the Trust a
non-exclusive license to use the name "Franklin" as part of the name of the
Trust and the name of any Series of Shares. In the event Franklin or an
affiliate of Franklin is not appointed as Manager and/or Principal Underwriter,
or ceases to be the Manager and/or Principal Underwriter of the Trust or of any
Series using such names, the non-exclusive license granted herein may be revoked
by Franklin and the Trust shall cease using the name "Franklin" as part of its
name or the name of any Series of Shares, unless otherwise consented to by
Franklin or any successor to its interests in such names.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustees named below do hereby make and
enter into this Declaration of Trust as of the 16th day of June, 1992.
