Applicants' Representations

    1. ASCAA is organized as a Maryland corporation and is registered
under the Act as an open-end management investment company. ACIM, a
Delaware corporation, is an investment adviser registered under the
Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the ``Advisers Act'').
ACIM or another Adviser (as defined below) will serve as investment
adviser to each Applicant Fund (as defined below). ACIS is a Missouri
corporation, registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and will serve as the distributor for
the initial Applicant Fund (as defined below).
    2. Applicants request the exemption to the extent necessary to
permit any existing or future series of ACSAA and any other existing or
future registered open-end investment company or series thereof that
(i) is advised by ACIM or any person controlling, controlled by or
under common control with ACIM (any such adviser or ACIM, an
``Adviser''); \1\ (ii) invests in other registered open-end investment
companies (``Underlying Funds'') in reliance on section 12(d)(1)(G) of
the Act; and (iii) is also eligible to invest in securities (as defined
in section 2(a)(36) of the Act) in reliance on rule 12d1-2 under the
Act (each an ``Applicant Fund''), to also invest, to the extent
consistent with its investment objectives, policies, strategies and
limitations, in financial instruments that may not be securities within
the meaning of section 2(a)(36) of the Act (``Other Investments'').\2\

Applicants also request that the order exempt ACIS and any entity that
now or in the future acts as principal underwriter, or broker or dealer
if registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(``Exchange Act''), with respect to the transactions described in the
application.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Any other Adviser will also be registered under the Advisers
Act.
    \2\ Every existing entity that currently intends to rely on the
requested order is named as an applicant. Any existing or future
entity that relies on the requested order will do so only in
accordance with the terms and condition in the application.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    3. Consistent with its fiduciary obligations under the Act, each
Applicant Fund's board of directors will review the advisory fees
charged by the Applicant Fund's Adviser to ensure that they are based
on services provided that are in addition to, rather than duplicative
of, services provided pursuant to the advisory agreement of any
investment company in which the Applicant Fund may invest.

Applicants' Legal Analysis

    1. Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the Act provides that no registered
investment company (``acquiring company'') may acquire securities of
another investment company (``acquired company'') if such securities
represent more than 3% of the acquired company's outstanding voting
stock or more than 5% of the acquiring company's total assets, or if
such securities, together with the securities of other investment
companies, represent more than 10% of the acquiring company's total
assets. Section 12(d)(1)(B) of the Act provides that no registered
open-end investment company may sell its securities to another
investment company if the sale will cause the acquiring company to own
more than 3% of the acquired company's voting stock, or cause more than
10% of the acquired company's voting stock to be owned by investment
companies and companies controlled by them.
    2. Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the Act provides, in part, that section
12(d)(1) will not apply to securities of an acquired company purchased
by an acquiring company if: (i) The acquired company and acquiring
company are part of the same group of investment companies; (ii) the
acquiring company holds only securities of acquired companies that are
part of the same group of investment companies, government securities,
and short-term paper; (iii) the aggregate sales loads and distribution-
related fees of the acquiring company and the acquired company are not
excessive under rules adopted pursuant to section 22(b) or section
22(c) of the Act by a securities association registered under section
15A of the Exchange Act or by the Commission; and (iv) the acquired
company has a policy that prohibits it from acquiring securities of
registered open-end investment companies or registered unit investment
trusts in reliance on section 12(d)(1)(F) or (G) of the Act.
    3. Rule 12d1-2 under the Act permits a registered open-end
investment company or a registered unit investment trust that relies on
section 12(d)(1)(G) of the Act to acquire, in addition to securities
issued by another registered investment company in the same group of
investment companies, government securities, and short-term paper: (i)
Securities issued by an investment company that is not in the same
group of investment companies, when the acquisition is in reliance on
section 12(d)(1)(A) or 12(d)(1)(F) of the Act; (ii) securities (other
than securities issued by an investment company); and (iii) securities
issued by a money market fund, when the investment is in reliance on
rule 12d1-1 under the Act. For the purposes of rule 12d1-2,
``securities'' means any security as defined in section 2(a)(36) of the
Act.
    4. Section 6(c) of the Act provides that the Commission may exempt
any person, security, or transaction from any provision of the Act, or
from any rule under the Act, if such exemption is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest and consistent with the protection
of investors and the purposes fairly intended by the policies and
provisions of the Act.
    5. Applicants state that the Applicant Funds will comply with rule
12d1-2 under the Act, but for the fact that the Applicant Funds may
invest a portion of their assets in Other Investments. Applicants
request an order under section 6(c) of the Act for an exemption from
rule 12d1-2(a) to allow the Applicant Funds to invest in Other
Investments while investing in Underlying Funds. Applicants assert that
permitting the Applicant Funds to invest in Other Investments as
described in the application would not raise any of the concerns that
the requirements of section 12(d)(1) were designed to address.

Applicants' Condition

    Applicants agree that any order granting the requested relief will
be subject to the following condition:
    Applicants will comply with all provisions of rule 12d1-2 under the
Act, except for paragraph (a)(2) to the extent that it restricts any
Applicant Fund from investing in Other Investments as described in the
application.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
under delegated authority.
Kevin M. O'Neill,
Deputy Secretary.
