Ladies and Gentlemen:

		We, CFBDS, Inc. ("CFBDS"), have agreements 
with certain investment companies for which Mutual 
Management Corp. serves as investment adviser and/or 
administrator (each a "Fund") pursuant to which we act 
as nonexclusive principal underwriter and distributor 
for the sale of shares of capital stock ("shares") of 
the various series of such Funds, and as such have the 
right to distribute shares for resale.  Each Fund is 
an open-end investment company registered under the 
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 
Act") and the shares being offered to the public are 
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as 
amended (the "1933 Act").  Each series of each Fund 
covered by a Distribution Agreement from time to time 
is referred to in this agreement as a "Series" and 
collectively as the "Series."  The term "Prospectus", 
as used herein, refers to the prospectus and related 
statement of additional information (the "Statement of 
Additional Information") incorporated therein by 
reference (as amended or supplemented) on file with 
the Securities and Exchange Commission at the time in 
question.  As a broker in the capacity of principal 
underwriter and distributor for the Trust, we offer to 
sell to you, as a broker or dealer, shares of each 
Fund upon the following terms and conditions:

1.     In all sales to the public

sales to the public you shall act as dealer for your 
own account, and in no transaction shall you have any 
authority to act as agent for the Fund, for us or for 
any other dealer."  

2.      Orders received from you 
will be accepted through us only at the public 
offering price per share (i.e. the net asset value per 
share plus the applicable front-end sales charge, if 
any) applicable to each order, and all orders for 
redemption of any shares shall be executed at the net 
asset value per share less any contingent deferred 
sales charge, if any, in each case as set forth in the 
Prospectus.  You will be entitled to receive and 
retain any contingent deferred sales charge amounts in 
partial consideration of your payment to financial 
consultants of commission amounts at the time of sale 
and we will obligate any other brokers with whom we 
enter into similar agreements to pay such amounts 
directly to you.  The procedure relating to the 
handling of orders shall be subject to paragraph 4 
hereof and instructions which we or the Fund shall 
forward from time to time to you.  All orders are 
subject to acceptance or rejection by the applicable 
Fund or us in the sole discretion of either.  The 
minimum initial purchase and the minimum subsequent 
purchase of any shares shall be as set forth in the
