OHIO, INC. ("BISYS"), an Ohio corporation having its principal place of business
at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.
WHEREAS, the Company desires that BISYS perform certain services for
each series of the Company (individually referred to herein as a "Fund" and
collectively as the "Funds"); and
WHEREAS, BISYS is willing to perform such services on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants
herein set forth, the parties agree as follows:

such special services incidental to the performance of the services enumerated
herein as agreed to by the parties from time to time. BISYS shall perform such
additional services as are provided on an amendment to Schedule A hereof, in
consideration of such fees as the parties hereto may agree.
BISYS may, in its discretion, appoint in writing other parties
qualified to perform transfer agency services reasonably acceptable to the
Company (individually, a "Sub-transfer Agent") to carry out some or all of its
responsibilities under this Agreement with respect to a Fund; provided, however,
that the Sub-transfer Agent shall be the agent of BISYS and not the agent of the

such Sub-transfer Agent and shall not be relieved of any of its responsibilities
hereunder by the appointment of such Sub-transfer Agent.
2. FEES.
The Company shall pay BISYS for the services to be provided by
BISYS under this Agreement in accordance with, and in the manner set forth in

Partnership and BISYS dated as of April 1, 2002 (the "Fee Agreement"). Fees for
any additional services to be provided by BISYS pursuant to an amendment to

preparing and printing all printed materials) which shall be
required by BISYS for the performance of the services to be
provided hereunder;
(b) System development fees, billed at the rate of $150 per hour, as
approved by the Company, and all systems-related expenses, agreed
in advance, associated with the provision of special reports and

4. EFFECTIVE DATE.
This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first
written above (the "Effective Date").
5. TERM.
This Agreement shall continue in effect with respect to a
Fund, unless earlier terminated by either party hereto as provided hereunder,
until March 31, 2005 (the "Initial Term"). Thereafter, unless otherwise
terminated as provided herein, this Agreement shall be renewed automatically for
successive one year periods ("Rollover Periods"). This Agreement may be
terminated without penalty (i) by provision of a notice of nonrenewal in the
manner set forth below, (ii) by mutual agreement of the parties or (iii) for
"cause," as defined below, upon the provision of sixty (60) days advance written
notice by the party alleging cause. Written notice of nonrenewal must be
provided within sixty (60) days of the end of the Initial Term or any Rollover
Period, as the case may be.
For purposes of this Agreement, "cause" shall mean (a) a
material breach of this Agreement that has not been remedied for thirty (30)
days following written notice of such breach from the non-breaching party; (b) a
final, unappealable judicial, regulatory or administrative ruling or order in
which the party to be terminated has been found guilty of criminal or unethical
behavior in the conduct of its business; or (c) financial difficulties on the
part of the party to be terminated which are evidenced by the authorization or
commencement of, or involvement by way of pleading, answer, consent or
acquiescence in, a voluntary or involuntary case under Title 11 of the United
States Code, as from time to time is in effect, or any applicable law, other
than said Title 11, of any jurisdiction relating to the liquidation or
reorganization of debtors or to the modification or alteration of the rights of
creditors.
After such termination, for so long as BISYS, with the written
consent of the Company, in fact continues to perform any one or more of the
services contemplated by this Agreement or any Schedule or exhibit hereto, the
provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the provisions
dealing with indemnification, shall continue in full force and effect. Fees and
out-of-pocket expenses incurred by BISYS but unpaid by the Company upon such
termination shall be immediately due and payable upon and notwithstanding such
termination. BISYS shall be entitled to collect from the Company, in addition to
the fees and disbursements provided by the Fee Agreement and Section 3 hereof,
the amount of all of BISYS' reasonable cash disbursements in connection with
BISYS' activities in effecting such termination, including without limitation,
the delivery to the Company and/or its distributor or investment adviser and/or
other parties, of the Company's property, records, instruments and documents.
If, for any reason other than nonrenewal, mutual agreement of the
parties or "cause," as defined above, BISYS is replaced as transfer agent, or if
a third party is added to perform all or a part of the services provided by
BISYS under this Agreement (excluding any Sub-transfer Agent
4
appointed by BISYS as provided in Section 1 hereof), then the Company shall make
a one-time cash payment, in consideration of the fee structure and services to
be provided under this Agreement, and not as a penalty, to BISYS equal to the
balance due BISYS for the remainder of the then-current term of this Agreement,
assuming for purposes of calculation of the payment that such balance shall be
based upon the average number of Company shareholder accounts for the twelve
months prior to the date BISYS is replaced or a third party is added.
In the event the Company is merged into another legal entity
in part or in whole pursuant to any form of business reorganization or is
liquidated in part or in whole prior to the expiration of the then-current term
of this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the liquidated damages
provision set forth above shall be applicable in those instances in which BISYS
is not retained to provide transfer agency services consistent with this
Agreement, including the level of assets subject to such services. The one-time
cash payment referenced above shall be due and payable on the day prior to the
first day in which BISYS is replaced or a third party is added.
The parties further acknowledge and agree that, in the event BISYS is
replaced, or a third party is added, as set forth above, (i) a determination of
actual damages incurred by BISYS would be extremely difficult, and (ii) the
liquidated damages provision contained herein is intended to adequately
compensate BISYS for damages incurred and is not intended to constitute any form
of penalty.
6. UNCONTROLLABLE EVENTS.
BISYS assumes no responsibility hereunder, and shall not be
liable for any damage, loss of data, delay or any other loss whatsoever caused
by events beyond its reasonable control.
7. LEGAL ADVICE.
BISYS shall notify the Company at any time BISYS believes that
it is in need of the advice of counsel (other than counsel in the regular employ
of BISYS or any affiliated companies) with regard to BISYS' responsibilities and
duties pursuant to this Agreement; and after so notifying the Company, BISYS, at
its discretion, shall be entitled to seek, receive and act upon advice of legal
counsel of its choosing, such advice to be at the expense of the Company or
Funds unless relating to a matter involving BISYS' willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard with respect to BISYS'
responsibilities and duties hereunder and BISYS shall in no event be liable to
the Company or any Fund or any shareholder or beneficial owner of the Company
for any action reasonably taken pursuant to such advice.
5
8. INSTRUCTIONS.
Whenever BISYS is requested or authorized to take action
hereunder pursuant to instructions from a shareholder, or a properly authorized
agent of a shareholder ("shareholder's agent"), concerning an account in a Fund,
BISYS shall be entitled to rely upon any certificate, letter or other instrument
or communication, believed by BISYS to be genuine and to have been properly
made, signed or authorized by an officer or other authorized agent of the
Company or by the shareholder or shareholder's agent, as the case may be, and
shall be entitled to receive as conclusive proof of any fact or matter required
to be ascertained by it hereunder a certificate signed by an officer of the
Company or any other person authorized by the Company's Board of Trustees
(hereafter referred to as the "Trustees") or by the shareholder or shareholder's
agent, as the case may be.
As to the services to be provided hereunder, BISYS may rely
conclusively upon the terms of the Prospectuses and Statement of Additional
Information of the Company relating to the Funds to the extent that such
services are described therein unless BISYS receives written instructions to the
contrary in a timely manner from the Company.
9. STANDARD OF CARE; RELIANCE ON RECORDS AND INSTRUCTIONS; INDEMNIFICATION.
BISYS shall use its best efforts to ensure the accuracy of all
services performed under this Agreement, but shall not be liable to the Company
for any action taken or omitted by BISYS in the absence of bad faith, willful
misfeasance, negligence or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and
duties. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless BISYS, its employees,
agents, directors, officers and nominees from and against any and all claims,
demands, actions and suits, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and
against any and all judgments, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges,
reasonable counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising
out of or in any way relating to BISYS' actions taken or nonactions with respect
to the performance of services under this Agreement or based, if applicable,
upon reasonable reliance on information, records, instructions or requests given
or made to BISYS by the Company, the investment adviser and on any records
provided by any fund accountant or custodian thereof; provided that this
indemnification shall not apply to actions or omissions of BISYS in cases of its
own bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or from reckless disregard by it
of its obligations and duties; and further provided that prior to confessing any
claim against it which may be the subject of this indemnification, BISYS shall
give the Company written notice of and reasonable opportunity to defend against
said claim in its own name or in the name of BISYS.
10. RECORD RETENTION AND CONFIDENTIALITY.
BISYS shall keep and maintain on behalf of the Company all
books and records which the Company or BISYS is, or may be, required to keep and
maintain pursuant to any applicable statutes, rules and regulations, including
without limitation Rules 31a-1 and 31a-2 under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), relating to the maintenance of books and
records in connection with the services to be provided hereunder.
6
BISYS further agrees that all such books and records shall be the property of
the Company and to make such books and records available for inspection by the
Company or by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") at
reasonable times and otherwise to keep confidential all books and records and
other information relative to the Company and its shareholders, except when
requested to divulge such information by duly-constituted authorities or court
process, or requested by a shareholder or shareholder's agent with respect to
information concerning an account as to which such shareholder has either a
legal or beneficial interest or when requested by the Company, the shareholder,
or shareholder's agent, or the dealer of record as to such account.

amendment to Schedule B. The Company agrees to examine each such report or copy
promptly and will report or cause to be reported any errors or discrepancies
therein.

which are no longer needed by BISYS in the performance of its services or for
its legal protection. If not so turned over to the Company, such documents and
records will be retained by BISYS for six years from the year of creation. At

records and documents.

bank accounts with such bank or banks as are selected by the Company, as are
necessary in order that BISYS may perform the services required to be performed

effect such disbursements.
