CUSTODIAN AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, made as of the 20th day of April, 1992, by and between
Voyageur Funds, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the "Fund"), for and on behalf of
each series of the Fund that adopts this Agreement (said series being
hereinafter referred to, individually, as a "Series" and, collectively, as the
"Series"), and Norwest Bank Minnesota N.A., a national banking association
organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America (the
"Custodian"). The name of each Series that adopts this Agreement and the
effective date of this Agreement with respect to each such Series are set forth
in EXHIBIT A hereto.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Fund desires to appoint the Custodian as the custodian for the
assets of each Series, and the Custodian desires to accept such appointment,
pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements and covenants
herein made, the Fund and the Custodian agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1. DEFINITIONS
The word "Securities" as used herein shall be construed to include, without
being limited to, shares, stocks, bonds, debentures, notes, scrip, participation
certificates, rights to subscribe, warrants, options, certificates of deposit,
bankers' acceptances, repurchase agreements, commercial paper, choses in action,
evidences of indebtedness, investment contracts, voting trust certificates,
certificates of indebtedness and certificates of interest of any and every kind
and nature whatsoever, secured and unsecured, issued or to be issued, by any
corporation, company, partnership (limited or general), association, trust,
entity or person, public or private, whether organized under the laws of the
United States, or any state, commonwealth, territory or possession thereof, or
organized under the laws of any foreign country, or any state, province,
territory or possession thereof, or issued or to be issued by the United States
government or any agency or instrumentality thereof, options on stock indexes,
stock index and interest rate futures contracts and options thereon, and other
futures contracts and options thereon.
The words "Written Order from the Fund" shall mean a writing signed or
initialed by one or more person or persons designated in the current certified
list referred to in Article 2, provided that if said writing is signed by only
one person, that person shall be an officer of the Fund designated in said
current certified list. "Written Order from the Fund" also may include a
communication effected directly between electro-mechanical or electronic devices
(including, but not limited to, facsimile transceivers) provided that management
of the Fund and the Custodian are satisfied that such procedures afford adequate
safeguards for the assets of each Series.
ARTICLE 2. NAMES, TITLES AND SIGNATURES OF FUND'S OFFICERS
The Fund shall certify to the Custodian the names, titles and signatures of
officers and other persons who are authorized to give any Written Order from the
Fund on behalf of each Series. The Fund agrees that, whenever any change in such
authorization occurs, it will file with the Custodian a new certified list of
names, titles and signatures which shall be signed by at least one officer
previously certified to the Custodian if any such officer still holds an office
in the Fund. The Custodian is authorized to rely and act upon the names, titles
and signatures of the individuals as they appear in the most recent such
certified list which has been delivered to the Custodian as hereinbefore
provided.
ARTICLE 3. SUB-CUSTODIANS AND DEPOSITORIES
Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, all
or any of the cash and Securities of each Series may be held in the Custodian's
own custody or in the custody of one or more other banks or trust companies
selected by the Custodian or as directed in one or more Written Orders from the
Fund. Any such sub-custodian must have the qualifications required for
custodians under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Custodian
or sub-custodian, as the case may be, may participate directly or indirectly in
one or more "securities depositories" (as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or in any successor provisions or
rules thereto). Any references in this Agreement to the delivery of Securities
by or to the Custodian shall, with respect to Securities custodied with one of
the aforementioned "securities depositories," be interpreted to mean that the
Custodian shall cause a bookkeeping entry to be made by the applicable
securities depository to indicate the transfer of ownership of the applicable
Security to or from the Fund, all as set forth in one or more Written Orders
from the Fund. Additionally, any references in this Agreement to the receipt of
proceeds or payments with respect to Securities transactions shall, with respect
to Securities custodied with one of the aforementioned "securities
depositories," be interpreted to mean that the Custodian shall have received an
advice from such securities depository that said proceeds or payments have been
received by such depository and deposited in the Custodian's account.
ARTICLE 4. RECEIPT AND DISBURSING OF MONEY
SECTION (1). The Fund shall from time to time cause cash owned by the Fund
to be delivered or paid to the Custodian for the account of any Series, but the
Custodian shall not be under any obligation or duty to determine whether all
cash of the Fund is being so deposited or to take any action or to give any
notice with respect to cash not so deposited. The Custodian agrees to hold such
cash, together with any other sum collected or received by it for or on behalf
of each Series of the Fund, in the account of such Series in conformity with the
terms of this Agreement. The Custodian shall be authorized to disburse cash from
the account of each Series only:
(a) upon receipt of and in accordance with Written Orders from
the Fund stating that such cash is being used for one or more of the
following purposes, and specifying such purpose or purposes, provided,
however, that a reference in such Written Order from the Fund to the
pertinent paragraph or paragraphs of this Article shall be sufficient
compliance with this provision:
(i) the payment of interest;
(ii) the payment of dividends;
(iii) the payment of taxes;
(iv) the payment of the fees or charges to any investment
adviser of any Series;
(v) the payment of fees to a Custodian, stock registrar,
transfer agent or dividend disbursing agent for any
Series;
(vi) the payment of distribution fees and commissions;
(vii) the payment of any operating expenses, which shall be
deemed to include legal and accounting fees and all
other expenses not specifically referred to in this
paragraph (a);
(viii) payments to be made in connection with the
conversion, exchange or surrender of Securities owned
by any Series;
(ix) payments on loans that may from time to time be due;
(x) payment to a recognized and reputable broker for
Securities purchased by the Fund through said broker
(whether or not including any regular brokerage fees,
charges or commissions on the transaction) upon receipt
by the Custodian of such Securities in proper form for
transfer and after the receipt of a confirmation from
the broker or dealer with respect to the transaction;
(xi) payment to an issuer or its agent on a subscription for
Securities of such issuer upon the exercise of rights
so to subscribe, against a receipt from such issuer or
agent for the cash so paid;
(b) as provided in Article 5 hereof; and
(c) upon the termination of this Agreement.
SECTION (2). The Custodian is hereby appointed the attorney-in-fact of the
Fund to use reasonable efforts to enforce and collect all checks, drafts or
other orders for the payment of money received by the Custodian for the account
of each Series and drawn to or to the order of the Fund and to deposit them in
the account of the applicable Series.
ARTICLE 5. RECEIPT OF SECURITIES
The Fund agrees to place all of the Securities of each Series in its
account with the Custodian, but the Custodian shall not be under any obligation
or duty to determine whether all Securities of any Series are being so
deposited, or to require that such Securities be so deposited, or to take any
action or give any notice with respect to the Securities not so deposited. The
Custodian agrees to hold such Securities in the account of the Series designated
by the Fund, in the name of the Fund or of bearer or of a nominee of the
Custodian, and in conformity with the terms of this Agreement. The Custodian
also agrees, upon Written Order from the Fund, to receive from persons other
than the Fund and to hold in the account of the Series designated by the Fund
Securities specified in said Written Order of the Fund, and, if the same are in
proper form, to cause payment to be made therefor to the persons from whom such
Securities were received, from the funds of the applicable Series held by the
Custodian in said account in the amounts provided and in the manner directed by
the Written Order from the Fund.
The Custodian agrees that all Securities of each Series placed in its
custody shall be kept physically segregated at all times from those of any other
Series, person, firm or corporation, and shall be held by the Custodian with all
reasonable precautions for the safekeeping thereof. Upon delivery of any
Securities of any Series to a subcustodian pursuant to Article 3 of this
Agreement, the Custodian will create and maintain records identifying those
assets which have been delivered to the subcustodian as belonging to the
applicable Series.
ARTICLE 6. DELIVERY OF SECURITIES
The Custodian agrees to transfer, exchange or deliver Securities as
provided in Article 7, or on receipt by it of, and in accordance with, a Written
Order from the Fund in which the Fund shall state specifically which of the
following cases is covered thereby:
(a) in the case of deliveries of Securities sold by the Fund, against
receipt by the Custodian of the proceeds of sale and after receipt of a
confirmation from a broker or dealer (or, in accordance with industry
practice with respect to "same day trades," acceptance of delivery of such
securities by the broker or dealer, which acceptance is followed up by
confirmation thereof within the normal settlement period) with respect to
the transaction;
(b) in the case of deliveries of Securities which may mature or be
called, redeemed, retired or otherwise become payable, against receipt by
the Custodian of the sums payable thereon or against interim receipts or
other proper delivery receipts;
(c) in the case of deliveries of Securities which are to be
transferred to and registered in the name of the Fund or of a nominee of
the Custodian and delivered to the Custodian for the account of the Series,
against receipt by the Custodian of interim receipts or other proper
delivery receipts;
(d) in the case of deliveries of Securities to the issuer thereof, its
transfer agent or other proper agent, or to any committee or other
organization for exchange for other Securities to be delivered to the
Custodian in connection with a reorganization or recapitalization of the
issuer or any split-up or similar transaction involving such Securities,
against receipt by the Custodian of such other Securities or against
interim receipts or other proper delivery receipts;
(e) in the case of deliveries of temporary certificates in exchange
for permanent certificates, against receipt by the Custodian of such
permanent certificates or against interim receipts or other proper delivery
receipts;
(f) in the case of deliveries of Securities upon conversion thereof
into other Securities, against receipt by the Custodian of such other
Securities or against interim receipts or other proper delivery receipts;
(g) in the case of deliveries of Securities in exchange for other
Securities (whether or not such transactions also involve the receipt or
payment of cash), against receipt by the Custodian of such other Securities
or against interim receipts or other proper delivery receipts;
(h) in the case of warrants, rights or similar Securities, the
surrender thereof in the exercise of such warrants, rights or similar
Securities or the surrender of interim receipts or temporary Securities for
definitive Securities;
(i) for delivery in connection with any loans of securities made by
the Fund for the benefit of any Series, but only against receipt of
adequate collateral as agreed upon from time to time by the Custodian and
the Fund;
(j) for delivery as security in connection with any borrowings by the
Fund for the benefit of any Series requiring a pledge of assets from the
applicable Series, but only against receipt of amounts borrowed;
(k) for delivery in accordance with the provisions of any agreement
among the Fund, the Custodian and a bank, broker-dealer or futures
commission merchant relating to compliance with applicable rules and
regulations regarding account deposits, escrow or other arrangements in
connection with transactions by the Fund for the benefit of any Series;
(l) in a case not covered by the preceding paragraphs of this Article,
upon receipt of a resolution adopted by the Board of Directors of the Fund,
signed by an officer of the Fund and certified to by the Secretary,
specifying the Securities and assets to be transferred, exchanged or
delivered, the purposes for which such delivery is being made, declaring
such purposes to be proper corporate purposes, and naming a person or
persons (each of whom shall be a properly bonded officer or employee of the
Fund) to whom such transfer, exchange or delivery is to be made; and
(m) in the case of deliveries pursuant to paragraphs (a) through (k)
above, the Written Order from the Fund shall direct that the proceeds of
any Securities delivered, or Securities or other assets exchanged for or in
lieu of Securities so delivered, are to be delivered to the Custodian.
ARTICLE 7. CUSTODIAN'S ACTS WITHOUT WRITTEN ORDERS FROM THE FUND
Unless and until the Custodian receives contrary Written Orders from the
Fund, the Custodian shall without order from the Fund:
(a) present for payment all bills, notes, checks, drafts and similar
items, and all coupons or other income items (except stock dividends), held
or received for the account of any Series, and which require presentation
in the ordinary course of business, and credit such items to the account of
the applicable Series conditionally, subject to final payment;
(b) present for payment all Securities which may mature or be called,
redeemed, retired or otherwise become payable and credit such items to the
account of the applicable Series conditionally, subject to final payment;
(c) hold for and credit to the account of any Series all shares of
stock and other Securities received as stock dividends or as the result of
a stock split or otherwise from or on account of Securities of the Series,
and notify the Fund, in the Custodian's monthly reports to the Fund, of the
receipt of such items;
(d) deposit or invest (as instructed from time to time by the Fund)
any cash received by it from, for or on behalf of any Series to the credit
of the account of the applicable Series;
(e) charge against the account for any Series disbursements authorized
to be made by the Custodian hereunder and actually made by it, and notify
the Fund of such charges at least once a month;
(f) deliver Securities which are to be transferred to and reissued in
the name of any Series, or of a nominee of the Custodian for the account of
any Series, and temporary certificates which are to be exchanged for
permanent certificates, to a proper transfer agent for such purpose against
interim receipts or other proper delivery receipts; and
(g) hold for disposition in accordance with Written Orders from the
Fund hereunder all options, rights and similar Securities which may be
received by the Custodian and which are issued with respect to any
securities held by it hereunder, and notify the Fund promptly of the
receipt of such items.
ARTICLE 8. SEGREGATED ACCOUNTS
Upon receipt of a Written Order from the Fund, the Custodian shall
establish and maintain one or more segregated accounts for and on behalf of the
Series specified in said Written Order from the Fund for purposes of segregating
cash and/or Securities (of the type agreed upon from time to time by the
Custodian and the Fund) for the purpose or purposes specified in said Written
Order from the Fund.
ARTICLE 9. DELIVERY OF PROXIES
The Custodian shall deliver promptly to the Fund all proxies, notices and
communications with relation to Securities held by it which it may receive from
sources other than the Fund.
ARTICLE 10. TRANSFER
The Fund shall furnish to the Custodian appropriate instruments to enable
the Custodian to hold or deliver in proper form for transfer any Securities
which it may hold for the account of any Series of the Fund. For the purpose of
facilitating the handling of Securities, unless otherwise directed by Written
Order from the Fund, the Custodian is authorized to hold Securities deposited
with it under this Agreement in the name of its registered nominee or nominees
(as defined in the Internal Revenue Code and any regulations of the United
States Treasury Department issued thereunder or in any provision of any
subsequent federal tax law exempting such transaction from liability for stock
transfer taxes) and shall execute and deliver all such certificates in
connection therewith as may be required by such laws or regulations or under the
laws of any state. The Custodian shall, if requested by the Fund, advise the
Fund of the certificate number of each certificate so presented for transfer and
that of the certificate received in exchange therefor, and shall use its best
efforts to the end that the specific Securities held by it hereunder shall be at
all times identifiable.
ARTICLE 11. TRANSFER TAXES AND OTHER DISBURSEMENTS
The Fund, for and on behalf of each Series, shall pay or reimburse the
Custodian for any transfer taxes payable upon transfers of Securities made
hereunder, including transfers incident to the termination of this Agreement,
and for all other necessary and proper disbursements and expenses made or
incurred by the Custodian in the performance or incident to the termination of
this Agreement, and the Custodian shall have a lien upon any cash or Securities
held by it for the account of each applicable Series of the Fund for all such
items, enforceable, after thirty days' written notice by registered mail from
the Custodian to the Fund, by the sale of sufficient Securities to satisfy such
lien. The Custodian may reimburse itself by deducting from the proceeds of any
sale of Securities an amount sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon
the transfer of Securities sold. The Custodian shall execute such certificates
in connection with Securities delivered to it under this Agreement as may be
required, under the provisions of any federal revenue act and any regulations of
the Treasury Department issued thereunder or any state laws, to exempt from
taxation any transfers and/or deliveries of any such Securities as may qualify
for such exemption.
ARTICLE 12. CUSTODIAN'S LIABILITY FOR
PROCEEDS OF SECURITIES SOLD
If the mode of payment for Securities to be delivered by the Custodian is
not specified in the Written Order from the Fund directing such delivery, the
Custodian shall make delivery of such Securities against receipt by it of cash,
a postal money order or a check drawn by a bank, trust company or other banking
institution, or by a broker named in such Written Order from the Fund, for the
amount the Custodian is directed to receive. The Custodian shall be liable for
the proceeds of any delivery of Securities made pursuant to this Article, but
provided that it has complied with the provisions of this Article, only to the
extent that such proceeds are actually received.
ARTICLE 13. CUSTODIAN'S REPORT
The Custodian shall furnish the Fund, as of the close of business on the
last business day of each month, a statement showing all cash transactions and
entries for the account of each Series of the Fund. The books and records of the
Custodian pertaining to its actions as Custodian under this Agreement shall be
open to inspection and audit, at reasonable times, by officers of, and auditors
employed by, the Fund. The Custodian shall furnish the Fund with a list of the
Securities held by it in custody for the account of each Series of the Fund as
of the close of business on the last business day of each quarter of the Fund's
fiscal year.
ARTICLE 14. CUSTODIAN'S COMPENSATION
The Custodian shall be paid compensation at such rates and at such times as
may from time to time be agreed on in writing by the parties hereto (as set
forth with respect to each Series in EXHIBIT B hereto), and the Custodian shall
have a lien for unpaid compensation, to the date of termination of this
Agreement, upon any cash or Securities held by it for the Series accounts of the
Fund, enforceable in the manner specified in Article 11 hereof.
ARTICLE 15. DURATION, TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to each Series, as it
may from time to time be amended, until it shall have been terminated as
hereinafter provided, but no such amendment or termination shall affect or
impair any rights or liabilities arising out of any acts or omissions to act
occurring prior to such amendment or termination.
The Custodian may terminate this Agreement by giving the Fund ninety days'
written notice of such termination by registered mail addressed to the Fund at
its principal place of business.
The Fund may terminate this Agreement by giving ninety days' written notice
thereof delivered by registered mail to the Custodian at its principal place of
business. Additionally, this Agreement may be terminated with respect to any
Series of the Fund pursuant to the same procedures, in which case this Agreement
shall continue in full effect with respect to all other Series of the Fund.
Upon termination of this Agreement, the assets of the Fund, or Series
thereof, held by the Custodian shall be delivered by the Custodian to a
successor custodian upon receipt by the Custodian of a Written Order from the
Fund designating the successor custodian; and if no successor custodian is
designated in said Written Order from the Fund, the Custodian shall, upon such
termination, deliver all such assets to the Fund.
This Agreement may be amended or terminated at any time by the mutual
agreement of the Fund and the Custodian. Additionally, this Agreement may be
amended or terminated with respect to any Series of the Fund at any time by the
mutual agreement of the Fund and the Custodian, in which case such amendment or
termination would apply to such Series amending or terminating this Agreement
but not to the other Series of the Fund.
This Agreement may not be assigned by the Custodian without the consent of
the Fund, authorized or approved by a resolution of its Board of Directors.

Custodian, shall be and become the successor custodian without the execution of
any instrument or any further act on the part of the Fund or the Custodian or
any successor custodian.
