1. APPOINTMENT OF THE ADDITIONAL SELLING AGENT
1.1 QAM hereby invites the Additional Selling Agent to
participate as
an additional selling agent on a non-exclusive,
non-transferable
and non-assignable basis to offer for sale Units. The
Additional
Selling Agent hereby accepts such invitation and agrees to
participate in such offer for sale on the terms and conditions
set
out in this Agreement.
1.2 The Additional Selling Agent warrants that it has obtained
all
necessary licenses and authorizations of all applicable
authorities
to engage in the activities covered by this Agreement and
the

other
compensation hereunder for any period during which it has
been
suspended or expelled from membership in the NASD. The

1.3 The Additional Selling Agent agrees to offer, sell and
distribute
Units in the above-described public offering only in such states
or
territories where it is permitted to offer, sell and
distribute

1.4 The Partnership reserves the right to cancel or refuse
or
terminate, in whole or in part, any instruction or application

The

or

1.5 The Additional Selling Agent shall perform the services
hereunder
as an independent contractor and not as an employee of the

trust,
formal business organization, separate legal entity or other
association of any kind between the parties hereto. The
Additional
Selling Agent shall have no authority to bind or act on behalf
of
the Partnership or QAM. Except as specifically provided by
this
Agreement, Additional Selling Agent shall not act or represent
or
hold itself out as having authority to act as agent or partner
of
the Partnership or QAM, or in any way bind or commit the
Partnership or QAM to any obligations. Any such act will create
a
separate liability of Additional Selling Agent to any and all
third
parties affected as a consequence. The rights, duties,
obligations
and liabilities of the parties shall be several and not joint
or
collective and each party shall be responsible individually
only
for its obligations described by this Agreement.
