Appendix I-3a
REICH & TANG FUNDS
CODE OF ETHICS FOR PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE AND
SENIOR FINANCIAL OFFICERS
I. Covered Officers/Purpose of the Code
This code of ethics (the "Code") applies to the Principal Executive Officer
and Principal Financial Officer (the "Covered Officers," each of whom are set
forth in Exhibit A) of the Reich & Tang Funds listed in Exhibit B (each a "Fund"
and collectively, the "Funds") for the purpose of promoting:
o honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or
apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional
relationships;
o full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and
documents that a registrant files with, or submits to, the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") and in other public communications made by the
Funds;
o compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations;
o the prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate
person or persons identified in the Code; and
o accountability for adherence to the Code.
Each Covered Officer should adhere to a high standard of business ethics
and should be sensitive to situations that may give rise to actual as well as
apparent conflicts of interest.
II. Covered Officers Should Handle Ethically Actual and Apparent Conflicts of
Interest
Overview. A "conflict of interest" occurs when a Covered Officer's private
interest interferes with the interests of, or his service to, a Fund. For
example, a conflict of interest would arise if a Covered Officer, or a member of
his family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his position with
the Fund.
Certain conflicts of interest arise out of the relationships between
Covered Officers and the Funds and already are subject to conflict of interest
provisions in the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Investment Company Act") and
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 ("Investment Advisers Act"). For example,
Covered Officers may not individually engage in certain transactions (such as
the purchase or sale of securities or other property) with the Funds because of
their status as "affiliated persons" of the Funds. The Funds' and the investment
adviser's compliance programs and procedures are designed to prevent, or
identify and correct, violations of these provisions. This Code does not, and is
not intended to, repeat or replace these programs and procedures, and such
conflicts fall outside of the parameters of this Code.
Although typically not presenting an opportunity for improper personal
benefit, conflicts arise from, or as a result of, the contractual relationship
between the Funds and the investment
adviser, of which the Covered Officers are also officers or employees. As a
result, this Code recognizes that the Covered Officers will, in the normal
course of their duties (whether formally for the Funds or for the adviser, or
for both), be involved in establishing policies and implementing decisions that
will have different effects on the adviser and the Funds. The participation of
the Covered Officers in such activities is inherent in the contractual
relationship between the Funds and the adviser and is consistent with the
performance by the Covered Officers of their duties as officers of the Funds.
Thus, if performed in conformity with the provisions of the Investment Company
Act and the Investment Advisers Act, such activities will be deemed to have been
handled ethically. In addition, it is recognized by the Funds' Boards of
Directors/Trustees (the "Boards") that the Covered Officers may also be officers
of one or more other investment companies covered by this or other codes.
Other conflicts of interest are covered by the Code, even if such conflicts
of interest are not subject to provisions in the Investment Company Act and the
Investment Advisers Act. The following list provides examples of conflicts of
interest under the Code, but Covered Officers should keep in mind that these
examples are not exhaustive. The overarching principle is that the personal
interest of a Covered Officer should not be placed improperly before the
interest of a Fund.
* * * *
Each Covered Officer must:
o not use his personal influence or personal relationships improperly to
influence investment decisions or financial reporting by the Fund
whereby the Covered Officer would benefit personally to the detriment
of the Fund;
o not cause the Fund to take action, or fail to take action, for the
individual personal benefit of the Covered Officer rather than the
benefit of the Fund; and
o not use material non-public knowledge of portfolio transactions made
or contemplated for the Fund to trade personally or cause others to
trade personally in contemplation of the market effect of such
transactions.
There are some potential conflict of interest situations that should be
discussed with Fund counsel in order to determine whether these situations pose
a material risk of causing detriment to the Funds. Examples of these include:
o service as a director on the board of any public or private company;
o the receipt of any non-nominal gifts from any company with which a
Fund has current or prospective business dealings, to the extent the
situation is not addressed by a Fund's 17j-1 Code of Ethics or the
investment adviser's Code of Ethics;
o the receipt of any entertainment from any company with which a Fund
has current or prospective business dealings unless such entertainment
is business-related, reasonable in cost, appropriate as to time and
place, and not so frequent as to raise
any question of impropriety, to the extent the situation is not
addressed by a Fund's 17j-1 Code of Ethics or the investment adviser's
Code of Ethics;
o any ownership interest in, or any consulting or employment
relationship with, any of the Funds' service providers, other than its
investment adviser, principal underwriter, administrator or any
affiliated person thereof; and
o a direct or indirect financial interest in commissions, transaction
charges or spreads paid by the Funds for effecting portfolio
transactions or for selling or redeeming shares other than an interest
arising from the Covered Officer's employment, such as compensation or
equity ownership.
III. Disclosure and Compliance
o Each Covered Officer should familiarize himself with the disclosure
requirements generally applicable to the Funds;
o each Covered Officer should not knowingly misrepresent, or cause
others to misrepresent, facts about the Funds to others, whether
within or outside the Funds, including to the Fund's directors and
auditors, and to governmental regulators and self-regulatory
organizations;
o each Covered Officer should, to the extent appropriate within his area
of responsibility, consult with other officers and employees of the
Funds and the adviser with the goal of promoting full, fair, accurate,
timely and understandable disclosure in the reports and documents the
Funds file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public
communications made by the Funds;
o each Covered Officer should comply with his or her obligations under
the Funds' Disclosure Controls and Procedures and certification
requirements relating to the reports on Form N-CSR (certified
shareholder reports) and on Form N-Q (quarterly schedule of portfolio
holdings) that the Funds are required to file; and
o it is the responsibility of each Covered Officer to promote compliance
with the standards and restrictions imposed by applicable laws, rules
and regulations.
IV. Reporting and Accountability
Each Covered Officer must:
o upon adoption of the Code (or thereafter as applicable, upon becoming
a Covered Officer), affirm in writing to the Board that he has
received, read, and understands the Code;
o annually thereafter affirm to the Board that he has complied with the
requirements of the Code;
o not retaliate against any other Covered Officer or any employee of the
Funds or their affiliated persons for reports of potential violations
that are made in good faith; and
o notify the Audit Committee promptly if he knows of any violation of
this Code. Failure to do so is itself a violation of this Code.
Fund counsel is responsible for applying this Code to specific situations
in which questions are presented under it and has the authority to interpret
this Code in any particular situation. Any approvals or waivers(1) sought by the
Covered Officers must be considered Fund counsel.
The Funds will follow these procedures in investigating and enforcing this
Code:
o Fund counsel will take all appropriate action to investigate any
potential violations reported to it;
o if, after such investigation, Fund counsel believes that no violation
has occurred, Fund counsel is not required to take any further action;
o if Fund counsel determines that a violation has occurred it will
inform and make a recommendation to the full Board, which will
consider appropriate action, which may include (i) review of, and
appropriate modifications to, applicable policies and procedures; (ii)
notification to appropriate personnel of the investment adviser or its
board; or (iii) a recommendation to dismiss the Covered Officer;
o Fund counsel will be responsible for granting waivers, as appropriate;
and
o any changes to or waivers of this Code will, to the extent required,
be disclosed as provided by SEC rules.
V. Other Policies and Procedures
This Code shall be the sole code of ethics adopted by the Funds for
purposes of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and forms
applicable to registered investment companies thereunder. Insofar as other
policies or procedures of the Funds, the Funds' adviser, principal underwriter,
or other service providers govern or purport to govern the behavior or
activities of the Covered Officers who are subject to this Code, they are
superseded by this Code to the extent that they overlap or conflict with the
provisions of this Code. The Funds' and their investment adviser's and principal
underwriter's codes of ethics under Rule 17j-l under the Investment Company Act,
and any other codes of conduct applicable to such entities, are separate
requirements applying to the Covered Officers and others, and are not part of
this Code.
(1) Item 2 of Form N-CSR defines "waiver" as "the approval by the registrant of
a material departure from a provision of the code of ethics" and "implicit
waiver," which must also be disclosed, as "the registrant's failure to take
action within a reasonable period of time regarding a material departure
from a provision of the code of ethics that has been made known to an
executive officer" of the registrant.
VI. Amendments
Any amendments to this Code, other than amendments to Exhibits A or B, must
be approved or ratified by a majority vote of the Boards.
VII. Confidentiality
All reports and records prepared or maintained pursuant to this Code will
be considered confidential and shall be maintained and protected accordingly.
Except as otherwise required by law or this Code, such matters shall not be
disclosed to anyone other than Fund counsel and the Board of Directors (and its
counsel) of a Fund where such reports or records pertain to a Covered Officer of
such Fund.
VIII. Internal Use
The Code is intended solely for the internal use by the Funds and does not
constitute an admission, by or on behalf of any Fund, as to any fact,
circumstance, or legal conclusion.
Adopted: July 31, 2003, as amended July 22, 2004, October 19, 2006, December 6,
2007 and June 5, 2008.
