1. Amendment to Agreement

Exhibit D to the Agreement is hereby amended by: (i) replacing “Direct Purchase & Dividend Reinvestment Services” under “Additional Services Provided by Mellon” with “Direct Purchase and Dividend Reinvestment Services Fees are set forth on Schedule 1 to Exhibit D” and (ii) by adding the attached Schedule 1 to Exhibit D.

4. Partial Invalidity. If any provision of this Amendment is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate this Amendment as a whole, but this Amendment shall be construed as though it did not contain the particular provision held to be invalid or unenforceable and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law.

5. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed an original for all purposes, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
