IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE SHALL ISSUE AN INITIAL DECISION NO LATER THAN 300 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SERVICE OF THIS ORDER, PURSUANT TO RULE 360(A)(2) OF THE COMMISSION'S RULES OF PRACTICE. WITHOUT ADMITTING OR DENYING THE FINDINGS, MAM, ALONG WITH MORGAN KEEGAN & CO. ("MK"), J. THOMPSON WELLER, FORMERLY AN ASSOCIATED PERSON OF MK, JAMES C. KELSOE, FORMERLY AN ASSOCIATED PERSON OF MAM AND MK, CONSENTED TO THE ENTRY OF AN ORDER BY THE SEC MAKING FINDINGS AND IMPOSING REMEDIAL SANCTIONS, A CENSURE AND A CEASE AND DESIST ORDER AGAINST MAM AND OTHER PARTIES. THE SEC ORDER FOUND THAT MAM VIOLATED SECTIONS 206(1), 206(2) AND SECTION 206(4) OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT ("ADVISERS ACT") AND RULE 206(4)-7 THEREUNDER, AND SECTION 34(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 (THE"1940 ACT"), AND AIDED AND ABETTED AND CAUSED VIOLATIONS OF RULES 22C-1 AND 38A-1 UNDER THE 1940 ACT. THE SEC ORDER FOUND THAT MK VIOLATED RULE 22C-1 UNDER THE 1940 ACT, AND AIDED AND ABETTED AND CAUSED VIOLATIONS OF SECTION 34(B) OF THE 1940 ACT AND RULE 38A-1 THEREUNDER. THE SEC ORDER MADE ADDITIONAL FINDINGS WITH RESPECT TO THE INDIVIDUALS.

SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 RELEASE 9116/SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 RELEASE 61856/INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OF 1940 RELEASE 3009/INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 RELEASE 29203/ ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING ENFORCEMENT RELEASE 3125-APRIL 7, 2010: THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("COMMISSION") DEEMS IT APPROPRIATE AND IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST THAT PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIVE AND CEASE-AND-DESIST PROCEEDINGS BE, AND HEREBY ARE, INSTITUTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 8A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 ("SECURITIES ACT"), SECTION 21C OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 ("EXCHANGE ACT"), AND SECTIONS 9(B) AND 9(F) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 ("INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT") AGAINST MORGAN ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC. ("MORGAN ASSET"); PURSUANT TO SECTION 15(B)(6) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT AGAINST MORGAN ASSET; PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 203(E) AND 203(K) OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OR 1940 ("ADVISERS ACT") AGAINST MORGAN ASSET. DURING VARIOUS PERIODS BETWEEN AT LEAST JANUARY 2007 AND JULY 2007, THE DAILY NET ASSET VALUES ("NAV") OF VARIOUS FUNDS WAS MATERIALLY INFLATED AS A RESULT OF THE FRAUDULENT CONDUCT OF MORGAN ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC AND THE OTHER RESPONDENTS. EACH FUND HELD, IN VARYING AMOUNTS, SECURITIES BACKED BY SUBPRIME MORTGAGES. MANY OF THESE SECURITIES LACKED READILY AVAILABLE MARKET QUOTATIONS AND, AS A RESULT, WERE TO BE INTERNALLY PRICED BY THE FUNDS' BOARD OF DIRECTORS USING "FAIR VALUE" METHODS. UNDER SECTION 2(A)(41)(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT, THE FUNDS MUST USE MARKET VALUES FOR PORTFOLIO SECURITIES WITH READILY AVAILABLE MARKET QUOTATIONS AND DETERMINE FAIR VALUE FOR ALL OTHER PORTFOLIO ASSETS. THE FAIR VALUE OF SECURITIES FOR WHICH MARKET QUOTATIONS ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE IS THE PRICE THE FUNDS WOULD REASONABLY EXPECT TO RECEIVE ON A CURRENT SALE OF THE SECURITY. MORGAN ASSET ADOPTED ITS OWN PROCEDURES TO DETERMINE THE FAIR VALUE TO ASSIGN TO PORTFOLIO SECURITIES AND TO "VALIDATE" THOSE VALUES "PERIODICALLY." AMONG OTHER THINGS, THOSE PROCEDURES PROVIDED THAT "QUARTERLY REPORTS LISTING ALL SECURITIES HELD BY THE FUNDS THAT WERE FAIR VALUED DURING THE QUARTER UNDER REVIEW, ALONG WITH EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR THE FAIR VALUES ASSIGNED TO THE SECURITIES, SHALL BE PRESENTED TO THE BOARD FOR ITS REVIEW." MORGAN ASSET FAILED TO FULLY IMPLEMENT THIS PROVISION OF ITS PRICING POLICY. MORGAN ASSET, ACTING THROUGH AN INDIVIDUAL, MADE UNTRUE STATEMENTS OF MATERIAL FACT CONCERNING THE FUNDS' PERFORMANCE IN THE FUNDS' ANNUAL AND SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS FILED WITH THE COMMISSION ON FORMS N-CSR. MORGAN ASSET, THROUGH AN INDIVIDUAL, ALSO DEFRAUDED THE FUNDS BY PROVIDING A QUARTERLY VALUATION PACKET REFLECTING INFLATED PRICES FOR CERTAIN SECURITIES TO THE FUNDS' BOARDS, FAILING TO DISCLOSE TO THE FUNDS' BOARDS INFORMATION INDICATING THAT THE FUNDS' NAVS WERE INFLATED, AND THAT THE INDIVIDUAL WAS ACTIVELY SCREENING AND MANIPULATING DEALER QUOTES AND PROVIDING FUND ACCOUNTING WITH UNSUBSTANTIATED PRICE ADJUSTMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE PROSPECTUSES DESCRIBED MORGAN ASSET AS RESPONSIBLE FOR FAIR VALUATION OF THE FUNDS' PORTFOLIOS. RESPONDENTS MORGAN ASSET WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 17(A) OF THE SECURITIES ACT; WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 10(B) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT AND RULE 10B-5, THEREUNDER; WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 206(4) AND OF THE ADVISERS ACT AND RULE 206(4)-7 THEREUNDER; WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTIONS 206(1) AND 206(2) OF THE ADVISERS ACT; WILFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 34(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT; WILFULLY AIDED AND ABETTED AND VIOLATED RULE 22C-1 PROMULGATED UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT; WILLFULLY AIDED AND ABETTED AND VIOLATED RULE 38A-1 PROMULGATED UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT.

SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 RELEASE 9116/SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 RELEASE 61856/INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OF 1940 RELEASE
3009/INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 RELEASE 29203/ ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING ENFORCEMENT RELEASE 3125-APRIL 7, 2010: THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION ("COMMISSION") DEEMS IT APPROPRIATE AND IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST THAT PUBLIC ADMINISTRATIVE AND
CEASE-AND-DESIST PROCEEDINGS BE, AND HEREBY ARE, INSTITUTED PURSUANT TO SECTION 8A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 ("SECURITIES
ACT"), SECTION 21C OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 ("EXCHANGE ACT"), AND SECTIONS 9(B) AND 9(F) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY
ACT OF 1940 ("INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT") AGAINST MORGAN ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC. ("MORGAN ASSET"); PURSUANT TO SECTION 15(B)(6) OF
THE EXCHANGE ACT AGAINST MORGAN ASSET; PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 203(E) AND 203(K) OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT OR 1940 ("ADVISERS
ACT") AGAINST MORGAN ASSET. DURING VARIOUS PERIODS BETWEEN AT LEAST JANUARY 2007 AND JULY 2007, THE DAILY NET ASSET VALUES ("NAV")
OF VARIOUS FUNDS WAS MATERIALLY INFLATED AS A RESULT OF THE FRAUDULENT CONDUCT OF MORGAN ASSET MANAGEMENT, INC AND THE OTHER
RESPONDENTS. EACH FUND HELD, IN VARYING AMOUNTS, SECURITIES BACKED BY SUBPRIME MORTGAGES. MANY OF THESE SECURITIES LACKED
READILY AVAILABLE MARKET QUOTATIONS AND, AS A RESULT, WERE TO BE INTERNALLY PRICED BY THE FUNDS' BOARD OF DIRECTORS USING "FAIR
VALUE" METHODS. UNDER SECTION 2(A)(41)(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT, THE FUNDS MUST USE MARKET VALUES FOR PORTFOLIO
SECURITIES WITH READILY AVAILABLE MARKET QUOTATIONS AND DETERMINE FAIR VALUE FOR ALL OTHER PORTFOLIO ASSETS. THE FAIR VALUE OF
SECURITIES FOR WHICH MARKET QUOTATIONS ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE IS THE PRICE THE FUNDS WOULD REASONABLY EXPECT TO RECEIVE ON A
CURRENT SALE OF THE SECURITY. MORGAN ASSET ADOPTED ITS OWN PROCEDURES TO DETERMINE THE FAIR VALUE TO ASSIGN TO PORTFOLIO
SECURITIES AND TO "VALIDATE" THOSE VALUES "PERIODICALLY." AMONG OTHER THINGS, THOSE PROCEDURES PROVIDED THAT "QUARTERLY REPORTS
LISTING ALL SECURITIES HELD BY THE FUNDS THAT WERE FAIR VALUED DURING THE QUARTER UNDER REVIEW, ALONG WITH EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR
THE FAIR VALUES ASSIGNED TO THE SECURITIES, SHALL BE PRESENTED TO THE BOARD FOR ITS REVIEW." MORGAN ASSET FAILED TO FULLY
IMPLEMENT THIS PROVISION OF ITS PRICING POLICY. MORGAN ASSET, ACTING THROUGH AN INDIVIDUAL, MADE UNTRUE STATEMENTS OF MATERIAL
FACT CONCERNING THE FUNDS' PERFORMANCE IN THE FUNDS' ANNUAL AND SEMI-ANNUAL REPORTS FILED WITH THE COMMISSION ON FORMS N-CSR.
MORGAN ASSET, THROUGH AN INDIVIDUAL, ALSO DEFRAUDED THE FUNDS BY PROVIDING A QUARTERLY VALUATION PACKET REFLECTING INFLATED
PRICES FOR CERTAIN SECURITIES TO THE FUNDS' BOARDS, FAILING TO DISCLOSE TO THE FUNDS' BOARDS INFORMATION INDICATING THAT THE
FUNDS' NAVS WERE INFLATED, AND THAT THE INDIVIDUAL WAS ACTIVELY SCREENING AND MANIPULATING DEALER QUOTES AND PROVIDING FUND
ACCOUNTING WITH UNSUBSTANTIATED PRICE ADJUSTMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE PROSPECTUSES DESCRIBED MORGAN ASSET AS RESPONSIBLE FOR
FAIR VALUATION OF THE FUNDS' PORTFOLIOS. RESPONDENTS MORGAN ASSET WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 17(A) OF THE SECURITIES ACT;
WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 10(B) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT AND RULE 10B-5, THEREUNDER; WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTION 206(4) AND OF THE
ADVISERS ACT AND RULE 206(4)-7 THEREUNDER; WILLFULLY VIOLATED SECTIONS 206(1) AND 206(2) OF THE ADVISERS ACT; WILFULLY VIOLATED
SECTION 34(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT; WILFULLY AIDED AND ABETTED AND VIOLATED RULE 22C-1 PROMULGATED UNDER THE
INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT; WILLFULLY AIDED AND ABETTED AND VIOLATED RULE 38A-1 PROMULGATED UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT.
VIOLATIONS OF SECCTIONS 206(1), 206(2) AND SECTION 206(4) OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT ("ADVISERS ACT") AND RULE 206(4)-7

THE ORDER ALSO PROHIBITS MAM FROM BEING INVOLVED IN DETERMINING THE VALUE OF A PORTFOLIO SECURITY FOR WHICH THE MARKET

DETERMINING THE VALUE OF A PORTFOLIO SECURITY DURING THE FOLLOWING THREE-YEAR PERIOD (UNTIL JUNE 22, 2017), THE ORDER
REQUIRES MAM TO RETAIN AN INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT TO REVIEW AND REPORT TO THE SEC ON MAM'S POLICIES, PROCEDURES AND
PRACTICES WITH REGARD TO SUCH VALUATIONS.
Sanction detail: if suspended, enjoined or barred, provide duration including start date and capacities affected (General Securities Principal,
Financial Operations Principal, etc.). If requalification by exam/retraining was a condition of the sanction, provide length of time given to
requalify/retrain, type of exam required and whether condition has been satisfied. If disposition resulted in a fine, penalty, restitution,
disgorgement or monetary compensation, provide total amount, portion levied against you or an advisory affiliate, date paid and if any portion
of penalty was waived:

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE SHALL ISSUE AN INITIAL DECISION NO LATER THAN 300 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF
SERVICE OF THIS ORDER, PURSUANT TO RULE 360(A)(2) OF THE COMMISSION'S RULES OF PRACTICE. WITHOUT ADMITTING OR DENYING THE
FINDINGS, MAM, ALONG WITH MORGAN KEEGAN & CO. ("MK"), J. THOMPSON WELLER, FORMERLY AN ASSOCIATED PERSON OF MK, JAMES C. KELSOE,
FORMERLY AN ASSOCIATED PERSON OF MAM AND MK, CONSENTED TO THE ENTRY OF AN ORDER BY THE SEC MAKING FINDINGS AND IMPOSING
REMEDIAL SANCTIONS, A CENSURE AND A CEASE AND DESIST ORDER AGAINST MAM AND OTHER PARTIES. THE SEC ORDER FOUND THAT MAM VIOLATED
SECTIONS 206(1), 206(2) AND SECTION 206(4) OF THE INVESTMENT ADVISERS ACT ("ADVISERS ACT") AND RULE 206(4)-7 THEREUNDER, AND SECTION
34(B) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 (THE"1940 ACT"), AND AIDED AND ABETTED AND CAUSED VIOLATIONS OF RULES 22C-1 AND 38A-1
UNDER THE 1940 ACT. THE SEC ORDER FOUND THAT MK VIOLATED RULE 22C-1 UNDER THE 1940 ACT, AND AIDED AND ABETTED AND CAUSED
VIOLATIONS OF SECTION 34(B) OF THE 1940 ACT AND RULE 38A-1 THEREUNDER. THE SEC ORDER MADE ADDITIONAL FINDINGS WITH RESPECT TO THE
INDIVIDUALS. THESE FINDINGS ALL RELATED TO THE FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THE "FAIR VALUE" VALUATIONS STANDARDS ADOPTED BY CERTAIN
FUNDS FROMERLY MANAGED BY MAM AND DISTRIBUTED BY MK FOR THE VALUATION OF SECURITIES HELD BY THOSE FUNDS, FOR WHICH READILY
AVAILABLE MARKET QUOTATIONS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE ORDER REQUIRED MAM AND MK TO PAY A TOTAL OF $100,000,000 TO THE SEC
(CONSISTING OF DISGORGEMENT OF $20,500,000, PREJUDGMENT INTEREST OF $4,500,000 AND A CIVIL PENALTY OF $75,000,000).THE ORDER ALSO
PROHIBITS MAM FROM BEING INVOLVED FOR A PERIOD OF THREE YEARS IN VALUATIONS OF AN INVESTMENT COMPANY'S PORTFOLIO SECURITY FOR
WHICH MARKET QUOTATIONS ARE NOT READILY AVAILABLE. FOR THE NEXT THREE YEARS, MAM CAN BE INVOLVED IN SUCH VALUATIONS ONLY IF AN
INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT HAS FIRST REVIEWED AND REPORTED TO THE SEC ON MAM'S POLICIES, PROCEDURES AND PRACTICES WITH REGARD TO
SUCH VALUATIONS.
