6.
COURT COSTS AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES
 
The UNDERWRITER will indemnify the INSURED for court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred and paid by the INSURED in defense, whether or not successful, whether or not fully litigated on the merits and whether or not settled, of any claim, suit or legal proceeding with respect to which the INSURED would be entitled to recovery under this bond. However, with respect to INSURING CLAUSE 1. this Section shall only apply in the event that:

an Employee admits to being guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement,
 
 
b.
an Employee is adjudicated to be guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement, or
 
 
c.
in the absence of a. or b. above, an arbitration panel agrees, after a review of an agreed statement of facts between the UNDERWRITER and the INSURED, that an Employee would be found guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement if such Employee were prosecuted.
 
The INSURED shall promptly give notice to the UNDERWRITER of any such suit or legal proceeding and at the request of the UNDERWRITER shall furnish copies of all pleadings and pertinent papers to the UNDERWRITER.

Amounts paid by the UNDERWRITER for court costs and attorneys’ fees shall be in addition to the LIMIT OF LIABILITY stated in ITEM 3. of the DECLARATIONS.
 
If the UNDERWRITER declines to defend the INSURED, no settlement without the prior written consent of the UNDERWRITER nor judgment against the INSURED shall determine the existence, extent or amount of coverage under this bond, and the

UNDERWRITER shall not be liable for any costs, fees and expenses incurred by the INSURED.

The value of any loss of Property other than books of account or other records used by the INSURED in the conduct of its business, for which a claim is made shall be determined by the average market value of such Property on the business day immediately preceding discovery of such loss provided, however, that the value of any Property replaced by the INSURED with the consent of the UNDERWRITER and prior to the settlement of any claim for such Property shall be actual market value at the time of replacement.
 
In the case of a loss of interim certificates, warrants, rights or other securities, the production of which is necessary to the exercise of subscription, conversion, redemption or deposit privileges, the value of them shall be the market value of such privileges immediately preceding their expiration if said loss is not discovered until after their expiration. If no market price is quoted for such Property or for such privileges, the value shall be fixed by agreement between the parties.
 
The value of any loss of Property consisting of books of account or other records used by the INSURED in the conduct of its business shall be the amount paid by the INSURED for blank books, blank pages, or other materials which replace the lost books of account or other records, plus the cost of labor paid by the INSURED for the actual transcription or copying of data to reproduce such books of account or other records.
 
 
8.
VALUATION OF PREMISES AND FURNISHINGS
 
In the case of loss or damage to any office of the INSURED or to the furnishings, fixtures, stationery, supplies, equipment, safes or vaults, the UNDERWRITER shall not be liable for more than the actual cash value thereof, or for more than the actual cost of replacement or repair. The UNDERWRITER may, at its election, pay such actual cash value or make such replacement or repair. If the UNDERWRITER and the INSURED cannot agree upon the actual cash value or the cost of replacement or repair, it shall be determined by arbitration.
 
 
9.
SECURITIES SETTLEMENT
 
In the event of a loss of securities covered under this bond, the UNDERWRITER may, at its sole discretion, purchase replacement securities, tender the value of the securities in money, or issue its indemnity to effect replacement securities.
 
The indemnity required from the INSURED under the terms of this Section against all loss, cost or expense arising from the replacement of securities by the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity shall be:
 

 
 
Page 11 of 19

 
 
For All the Commitments You Make®
 
 


a.           for securities having a value less than or equal to the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT one hundred (100% percent);
 
 
b.
for securities having a value in excess of the DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT but within the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY- the percentage that the DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT bears to the value of the securities;
 
 
c.
for securities having a value greater than the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY the percentage that the DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT and portion in excess of the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY bears to the value of the securities.
 
The value referred to in a., b., and c. above is the value in accordance with SECTION 8, VALUATION OF PROPERTY, regardless of the value of such securities at the time the loss under the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity is sustained.
 
The UNDERWRITER is not required to issue its indemnity for any portion of a loss of securities which is not covered by this bond; however, the UNDERWRITER may do so as a courtesy to the INSURED and at its sole discretion.
 
The INSURED shall pay the proportion of the UNDERWRITER’S premium charge for the UNDERWRITER’S indemnity as set forth in a., b., and c. above. No portion of the LIMIT OF LIABILITY shall be used as payment of premium for any indemnity purchased by the INSURED to obtain replacement securities.
 
 
10.
SUBROGATION - ASSIGNMENT-RECOVERY
 
In the event of a payment under this bond, the UNDERWRITER shall be subrogated to all of the INSURED’S rights of recovery against any person or entity to the extent of such payment. On request, the INSURED shall deliver to the UNDERWRITER an assignment of the INSURED’S rights, title and interest and causes of action against any person or entity to the extent of such payment.  Recoveries, whether effected by the UNDERWRITER or by the INSURED, shall be applied net of the expense of such recovery, first to the satisfaction of the INSURED’S loss which would otherwise have been paid but for the fact that it is in excess of the applicable LIMIT OF LIABILITY, second, to the UNDERWRITER in satisfaction of amounts paid in settlement of the INSURED’S claim and third, to the INSURED in satisfaction of the applicable DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT. Recovery from reinsurance and/or indemnity of the UNDERWRITER shall not be deemed a recovery under this section.

If an INSURED, other than an Investment Company as defined in the Policy, merges or consolidates with or purchases or acquires assets or liabilities of another entity, there is no coverage under this bond for loss which involves any assets or employees acquired as a result of that transaction unless the INSURED gives the UNDERWRITER written notice of the proposed transaction prior to its proposed effective date and obtains the written consent of the UNDERWRITER to include those assets or employees under this bond and pays the UNDERWRITER any additional premium charged.
 
If an INSURED creates, other than by acquisition, a new investment company required by the SEC Reg 17g-1 to have coverage of the type afforded by this bond, that investment company will be automatically insured hereunder, provided that the total combined limit of liability for all INSURED covered hereunder, as required by SEC Reg 17g-1, including the newly created investment company does not exceed $450,000.

If an Investment Company requires an increase in limits to comply with SEC Reg. 17g-1 due to an increase in asset size, whether by growth of current funds insured under the bond or by the addition of new funds, that increase in limits shall take place automatically and will be covered until the next Annual Period without payment of additional premium, provided that the total combined limit of liability for all INSUREDS under this bond does not exceed $450,000 after including the increase in limits needed due to the increase in asset size. If the increase in limits needed as a result of the increase in assets will exceed $450,000, then the increase will not occur unless written consent of the UNDERWRITER is obtained.
 
Within 15 days of the end of each Annual Period, each Investment Company insured hereunder shall advise the UNDERWRITER, in writing, of its current asset size as of the conclusion of that Annual Period and shall pay to the UNDERWRITER any additional premium required by it for any newly created investment companies or any increase in limits that will carry into the current Annual Period.
