If no successor to the Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within such ten-day period, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents.

Thereafter, such bank or trust company shall be the successor of the Custodian under this Contract. In the event that securities, funds and other properties remain in the possession of the Custodian after the date of termination hereof owing to failure of the Fund to procure the certified copy of the vote referred to or of the Board of Trustees to appoint a successor custodian, the Custodian shall be entitled to fair compensation for its services during such period as the Custodian retains possession of such securities, funds and other properties and the provisions of this Contract relating to the duties and obligations of the Custodian shall remain in full force and effect.
