Re: The Shareholder Services Agreement (the "Agreement") dated as of
November 19, 1996 between First Trust Corporation, Denver Investment
Advisors LLC and Westcore Trust.
Dear Sirs:
By your signature below, please confirm that effective October 1, 2000 and
November 1, 2000, respectively, the Agreement (including any attachments thereto
listing the Funds covered by the Agreement) hereby is amended as follows:
Effective October 1, 2000, Westcore Trust will no longer offer Westcore
Intermediate-Term Bond Fund as an investment option through First Trust
Corporation. Westcore Trust understands that assets currently in the program
will remain, but additional purchases will not be allowed. Additionally,
Westcore Long-Term Bond Fund will be renamed Westcore Flexible Income Fund to
reflect certain changes in its investment objective and policies which are
detailed in the encloses supplement dated July 28, 2000 to the prospectus dated
October 1, 1999.
Commencing on November 1, 2000, Westcore Trust will add a new investment
portfolio - Westcore International Select Fund to this Agreement.
In all other respects the Agreement continues in effect in accordance with
its terms.
Please keep one signed original of this letter and return the remaining
originals to:
Westcore Trust
