WHEREAS, each FUND is offering or will be offering shares of beneficial interest (the "Shares");

WHEREAS, the Trust is an open-end management investment company registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"); and

WHEREAS, AP is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 as an investment adviser and is engaged as the named adviser of each FUND; and

WHEREAS, BCM is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 as an investment adviser and is engaged as the named subadviser of each FUND; and

WHEREAS, CEROS is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"), as a broker-dealer and is engaged in the business of selling shares of registered investment companies either directly to purchasers or through other financial intermediaries; and

WHEREAS, each FUND, AP, and BCM desire that CEROS offer, as principal underwriter, the Shares of the FUND to the public and CEROS is willing to provide those services on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement in order to promote the growth of each FUND and facilitate the distribution of the Shares;

NOW THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the Trust on behalf of each FUND, AP, BCM and CEROS hereby agree as follows:

APPOINTMENT OF CEROS AND DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS

(a) The Trust hereby appoints CEROS, and CEROS hereby agrees, to act as principal underwriter and distributor of the Shares of each FUND for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement. In connection therewith, each FUND has delivered to CEROS current copies of:

(i) the Trust's Agreement and Declaration of Trust and By-laws "Organizational Documents");

(ii) each FUND's current registration Statement;

(iii) the Trust's notification of registration under the 1940 Act on Form N-8A as filed with the SEC;

(iv) each FUND's current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (as currently in effect and as amended or supplemented, the "Prospectus");

(v) any current plan of distribution or similar document adopted by each FUND under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act ("Plan") and each current shareholder service plan or similar document adopted by each FUND ("Service Plan").

(b) Each FUND shall promptly furnish CEROS

(i) all amendments of or supplements to the foregoing; and

(ii) a copy of the resolution of the Board appointing CEROS and authorizing the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

NATURE OF DUTIES

(a) CEROS shall act as distributor of each FUND except that the rights under this Agreement to CEROS shall not apply to: (i) Shares issued in connection with the merger, consolidation or reorganization of any other investment company or series or class thereof with a FUND or class thereof; (ii) a FUND's acquisition by purchase or otherwise of all or substantially all of the assets or stock of any other investment company or series or class thereof; (iii) the reinvestment in Shares by a FUND's shareholders of dividends or other distributions; or (iv) any other offering by a FUND of securities to its shareholders (collectively "exempt transactions").

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, CEROS is and may in the future distribute shares of other investment companies including investment companies having investment objectives similar to those of a FUND. Each FUND, AP, and BCM further understand that existing and future investors in a FUND may invest in shares of such other investment companies. Each FUND, AP, and BCM agree that the services that CEROS provides to such other investment companies shall not be deemed in conflict with its duties to a FUND under this Agreement.

OFFERING OF SHARES

(a) CEROS shall have the right to buy from each FUND the Shares needed to fill unconditional orders for Shares of the FUND placed with CEROS by investors or selected dealers or selected agents (each as defined in Section 12 hereof) acting as agent for their customers' or on their own behalf. Alternatively, CEROS may act as a FUND's agent, to offer, and to solicit offers to subscribe to, Shares of the FUND.

(b) The price that CEROS shall pay for Shares purchased from a FUND shall be the NAV used in determining the Public Offering Price on which the orders are based. Shares purchased by CEROS are to be resold by CEROS to investors at the respective Public Offering Price(s), or to selected dealers or selected agents acting in accordance with the terms of selected dealer or selected agent agreements described in Section 12 of this Agreement. A FUND will advise CEROS of the NAV(s) each time that it is determined by the FUND, or its designated agent, and at such other times as CEROS may reasonably request.

(c) CEROS will promptly forward all orders and subscriptions to a FUND or its designated agent. All orders and all subscriptions shall be directed to a FUND for acceptance and shall not be binding until accepted by the FUND. Any order or subscription may be rejected by a FUND; provided, however, that the FUND will not arbitrarily or without reasonable cause refuse to accept or confirm orders or subscriptions for the purchase of Shares. A FUND or its designated agent will confirm orders and subscriptions upon their receipt, will make appropriate book entries and, upon receipt by the FUND or its designated agent of payment therefore, will issue such Shares in uncertificated form pursuant to the instructions of CEROS. CEROS agrees to cause such payment and such instructions to be delivered promptly to a FUND or its designated agent.

(d) Each FUND reserves the right to suspend the offering of Shares of the FUND at any the time in the absolute discretion of the Board, and upon notice of such suspension CEROS shall cease to offer Shares of the FUND specified in the notice.

(e) No Shares shall be offered by either CEROS or a FUND under any of provisions of this Agreement and no orders for the purchase or sale of Shares hereunder shall be accepted by the FUND if and so long as the effectiveness of the Registration Statement then in effect or any necessary amendments thereto shall be suspended under any of the provisions of the Securities Act, or if and so long as a current Prospectus, as required by Section 10(b) of the Securities Act, as amended, is not on file with the SEC; provided, however, that nothing contained in this paragraph shall in any way limit the FUND's obligation to repurchase Shares from any shareholder in accordance with the provisions of the FUND's Organizational Documents or the Prospectus applicable to the Shares.

LICENSED REPRESENTATIVES OF A FUND

At the request of the Trust, a FUND, the FUND's sponsor, adviser, subadviser or affiliate, CEROS may license certain designated employees as a "registered representative" and maintain their licensed status in accordance with FINRA rules and regulations including the following:

(a) Filing Form U-4's and fingerprint submission and processing renewals and terminations

(b) On-going compliance up-dates and training

(d) Supervision of registered representatives

CEROS reserves the right in its sole discretion to refuse to register or maintain the registration for any individual and otherwise impose any requirements, fees or limitations on licensed persons.

REPURCHASE OR REDEMPTION OF SHARES BY A FUND

(a) Any of the outstanding Shares of a FUND may be tendered for redemption at any time, and the FUND agrees to redeem or repurchase the Shares so tendered in accordance with its obligations as set forth in the Organizational Documents and the Prospectus relating to the Shares.

(b) A FUND or its designated agent shall pay:

(i) the total amount of the redemption price consisting of the NAV less any applicable redemption fee to the redeeming shareholder or its agent, and

(ii) except as may be otherwise required by FINRA Rules, any applicable deferred sales charges to CEROS in accordance with CEROS' instructions on or before the fifth business day (or such other earlier business day as is customary in the investment company industry) subsequent to the FUND or its agent having received the notice of redemption in proper form.

(c) Redemption of Shares or payment therefore may be suspended at times when the New York Stock Exchange is closed for any reason other than its customary weekend or holiday closings, when trading thereon is restricted, when an emergency exists as a result of which disposal by a FUND of securities owned by the FUND is reasonably practicable or it is not reasonably practicable for the FUND fairly to determine the value of the FUND's net assets, or during any other period when the SEC so requires or permits.

DUTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS OF CEROS

(a) CEROS shall use reasonable efforts to facilitate the sale of Shares of each FUND upon the terms and conditions contained herein and in the then current Prospectus.

(b) CEROS will execute and deliver agreements with broker/dealers, financial institutions and other industry professionals based on forms of agreement approved from time to time by the Board with respect to shares of a FUND, including but not limited to forms of sales support agreements and shareholder servicing agreements approved in connection with any distribution and/or servicing plan approved in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act.

CEROS will forward all FINRA comments on marketing materials to the party requesting the advertising for incorporation into such materials and the sole responsibility for incorporation of such comments shall remain with the party requesting the advertising; provided, however, that the FUND shall provide all factual content, opinion, and other content for such materials and CEROS shall not be responsible for the accuracy of the content of such materials, when used thereafter by the FUND or any person authorized by the FUND to use such material; nor shall CEROS be responsible for the filing or content of any such materials used by third parties without the authorization of CEROS; and provided further that CEROS shall not be responsible for filing any materials that fall within the definition of advertising and sales literature if such materials are not provided to CEROS in a form suitable for filing in a timely manner. In addition, CEROS will provide one or more persons, during normal business hours, to respond to telephone questions with respect to each FUND.

(h) CEROS shall adopt and follow procedures for the confirmation of sales to investors and selected dealers or selected agents, the collection of amounts payable by investors and selected dealers or selected agents on such sales, and the cancellation of unsettled transactions, as may be necessary to comply with the requirements of FINRA.

(j) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, including the Schedules, to the contrary, CEROS makes no warranty or representation as to the number of selected dealers or selected agents with which it has entered into agreements in accordance with Section 12 hereof, as to the availability of any Shares to be sold through any selected dealer, selected agent or other intermediary or as to any other matter not specifically set forth herein.

(a) Each FUND authorizes CEROS and any dealers with whom CEROS entered into dealer agreements to use the latest Prospectus in the form furnished by the FUND in connection with the sale of Shares. A FUND agrees to indemnify, defend and hold CEROS, its several officers and managers, and any person who controls CEROS within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including the reasonable cost of investigating or defending such claims, demands or liabilities and any reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) which CEROS, its officers and managers, or any such controlling persons, may incur under the Securities Act, the 1940 Act, or common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon:

(i) any untrue statement, or alleged untrue statement, of a material fact required to be stated in either any Registration Statement or any Prospectus,

(ii) the breach of any representations, warranties or obligations set forth herein,

(iii) any omission, or alleged omission, to state a material fact required to be stated in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus or necessary to make the statements in any of them not misleading,

(iv) a FUND's failure to maintain an effective Registration statement and Prospectus with respect to Shares of the FUND that are the subject of the claim or demand,

(b) A FUND's agreement to indemnify CEROS, its officers or managers, any such controlling person will not be deemed to cover any such claim, demand, liability or expense to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon:

(i) any such untrue statement, alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission made in any Registration Statement or any Prospectus in reliance upon information furnished by CEROS, its officers, managers or any such controlling person to the FUND or its representatives for use in the preparation thereof, or

(ii) willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of CEROS' duties, or by reason of CEROS' reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement ("Disqualifying Conduct").

(c) A FUND's agreement to indemnify CEROS, its officers and managers, and any such controlling person, as aforesaid, is expressly conditioned upon the FUND's being notified of any action

brought against CEROS, its officers or managers, or any such controlling person, such notification to be given by letter, by facsimile or by telegram addressed to the FUND at the address set forth above within a reasonable period of time after the summons or other first legal process shall have been served; provided, however, that the failure to notify the FUND of any such action shall not relieve the FUND from any liability which the FUND may have to the person against whom such action is brought by reason of any such untrue, or alleged untrue, statement or omission, or alleged omission, otherwise than on account of the FUND's indemnity agreement contained in this Section.

(d) A FUND will be entitled to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such claim, demand or liability, but, in such case, such defense shall be conducted by counsel of good standing chosen by the FUND and approved by CEROS, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If a FUND elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel of good standing approved by CEROS, the defendant or defendants in such suit shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by any of them; but in case the FUND does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit, the FUND will reimburse CEROS, its officers and managers, or the controlling person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit, for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by them.

(e) A FUND's indemnification agreement contained in this Section and the Fund's representations and warranties in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of CEROS, its officers and managers, or any controlling person, and shall survive the delivery of any Shares. This agreement of indemnity will inure exclusively to CEROS' benefit, to the benefit of its several officers and managers, and their respective estates, and to the benefit of any controlling persons and their successors. Each FUND agrees promptly to notify CEROS of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the FUND or any of the Trust's officers or Board members in connection with the issue and sale of Shares.

INDEMNIFICATION OF THE TRUST BY CEROS

(a) CEROS agrees to indemnify, defend and hold each FUND, the Trust's several officers and Board members, and any person who controls the FUND within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including the reasonable cost of investigating or defending such claims, demands or liabilities and any reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) which the FUND, the Trust's officers or Board members, or any such controlling person, may incur under the Securities Act, the 1940 Act, or under common law or otherwise, but only to the extent that such liability or expense incurred by the FUND, the Trust's officers or Board members, or such controlling person results from such claims or demands:

(i) arising out of or based upon statements or representations made by CEROS which are unauthorized by the FUND or its agents in any sales literature or advertisements or any Disqualifying Conduct by CEROS in connection with the offering and sale of any Shares, or

(ii) arising out of or based upon any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material fact contained in information furnished in writing by CEROS to the FUND specifically for use in the FUND's Registration Statement and used in the answers to any of the items of the Registration Statement or in the corresponding statements made in the Prospectus, or shall arise out of or be based upon any omission, or alleged omission, to state a material fact in connection with such information furnished in writing by CEROS to the FUND and required to be stated in such answers or necessary to make such information not misleading.

(b) CEROS' agreement to indemnify a FUND, its officers and Trustees, any such controlling and person, as aforesaid, is expressly conditioned upon CEROS' being notified of any action brought against the FUND, its officers or Trustees, or any such controlling person, such notification to be given by letter, by facsimile or by telegram addressed to CEROS at its address set forth above within a reasonable period of time after the summons or other first legal process shall have been served.

(c) The failure to notify CEROS of any such action shall not relieve CEROS from any liability which it may have to the person against whom such action is brought by reason of any such untrue, or alleged untrue, statement or omission, or alleged omission, otherwise than on account of CEROS' indemnity agreement contained in this Section.

(d) CEROS will be entitled to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such claim, demand or liability, but, in such case, such defense shall be conducted by counsel of good standing chosen by CEROS and approved by the affected FUND, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If CEROS elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel of good standing approved by a FUND the defendant or defendants in such suit shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by any of them; but in the case CEROS does not elect to assume the defense of any such suit, CEROS will reimburse the FUND, the Trust's officers and directors, or the controlling person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit, for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the FUND or them.

CEROS' indemnification agreement contained in this Section and CEROS' representations and warranties in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by CEROS or on behalf of CEROS, its officers and managers, or any controlling person, and shall survive the delivery of any Shares. This agreement of indemnity will inure exclusively to a FUND's benefit, to the benefit of the Trust's officers and Trustees, and their respective estates, and to the benefit of any controlling persons and their successors.
