Fund, an open-end investment company, to provide custody services; and
WHEREAS, the Custodian and the Fund wish to retain the Bank to provide
certain sub-custodian services to the Custodian and the Fund for the benefit of

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants
herein contained, it is agreed between the parties thereto as follows:
1. Appointment and Acceptance; Accounts. (a) The Fund and the
Custodian hereby appoint the Bank as a custodian of Property (as defined
below) owned or under the control of the Fund that is delivered to the Bank,
or any Subcustodian as appointed below, from time to time to be held in
custody for the benefit of the Fund.
(b) Prior to the delivery of any property by the Custodian to the Bank,
the Custodian shall deliver to the Bank each document and other item listed in
Appendix 1. In addition, the Custodian and/or the Fund shall deliver to the Bank
any additional documents or items as the Bank may deem necessary for the
performance of its duties under this Agreement.
(c) The Fund instructs the Bank to establish on the books and records of
the Bank the accounts listed in Appendix 2 (the "Accounts") in the name of the
Investment Portfolios of the Fund. Upon receipt of Authorized Instructions (as
defined below) and appropriate documentation, the Bank shall open additional
Accounts for the investment Portfolios of the Fund. Upon the Bank's confirmation
to the Custodian and the Fund of the opening of such additional Accounts, or of
the closing of Accounts, Appendix 2 shall be deemed automatically amended or
supplemented accordingly. The Bank shall record in the Accounts and shall have
general responsibility for the safekeeping of all securities ("Securities"),
cash, cash equivalents and other property (all such Securities, cash, cash
equivalents and other property being collectively the "Property") of the Fund
that are delivered to the Bank for custody.
(d) The procedures the Bank, the Custodian and the Fund will use in
performing activities in connection with this Agreement act are set forth in a
client services guide provided to the Custodian and the Fund by the Bank, as
such guide may be amended from time to time by the Bank by written notice to the
Custodian and the Fund (the "Client Services Guide").
2. Subcustodians. The Board of Trustees of the Fund authorizes the Bank to
hold the Property of the Fund in omnibus accounts which have been established by
the Bank with (i) one of its branches, a branch of a qualified U.S. bank or an
eligible foreign custodian as listed on Exhibit A (the "Subcustodians") which
exhibit may be amended by the Bank from time to time upon sixty (60) days prior
written notice from the Bank or (ii) an eligible foreign securities depository
as listed on Exhibit B. Unless notified in writing to the contrary by the Fund
during the sixty (60) days notice period, the Banks shall assume that the Fund
has obtained all necessary approvals of any new Subcustodian and the proposed
amendment to Exhibit A shall become effective as of the proposed effective date;
provided however, that in the event that the Fund notifies the Bank that any
necessary approval will not be obtained prior to the proposed effective date of
such amendment, the Fund shall, as soon as practicable but in any event within
120 days from the date of the Bank's initial notice of the proposed amendment,
obtain the requisite approvals or, in the alternative, issue Authorized
Instructions to the bank to deliver any Property effected by the proposed
amendment in accordance with such Authorized Instructions and absent any such
Authorized Instructions, the Bank shall assume that the Fund obtained such
requisite approvals with the 120-day period. For purposes of this Agreement (a)
"qualified U.S. bank" shall mean a qualified U.S. bank as defined in Rule 17f-5
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("Rule 17f-5"); (b)
"eligible foreign custodian" shall mean (i) a banking institution or trust
company incorporated or organized under the laws of a country other than the
United States that is regulated as such by that country's government or an

majority-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of a qualified U.S. bank or bank
holding company that is incorporated or organized under the laws of a country
other than the United States and that has shareholders' equity in excess of $100
million in U.S. currency (or a foreign currently equivalent thereto); and (c)
"eligible foreign securities depository" shall mean a securities depository or
clearing agency incorporated organized under the laws of a country other than
the United States, which operates (i) the central system for handling of
securities or equivalent book-entries in that country or (ii) a transactional
system for the central handling of securities or equivalent book-entries;
provided, however that although the Bank is of the opinion that each of the
securities depositories used by it and its Subcustodians do operate a central
system for handling securities in their respective countries, the determination
that a securities depository operates a central system absent any official
proclamation by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") is a factual one
and the Bank shall not be liable for any future determination by the SEC that
any such securities depository does not in fact operate such a central system.
If the Bank appoints other Subcustodians to hold the Fund's Property, it
will so notify the Custodian and the Fund in accordance with this Section 2 and
will provide them with information reasonably necessary to determine any such
new Subcustodian's eligibility under Rule 17f-5, including a copy of the
proposed agreement with such Subcustodian.
If the Bank removes any subcustodian it shall so notify the Fund and the
Custodian in accordance with this Section 2 and shall move the Property
deposited with such Subcustodian to another Subcustodian or a new Subcustodian,
provided that the appointment of any new Subcustodian will be subject to the
requirements set forth in this Section 2. The Bank shall take steps as may be
required to remove any Subcustodian which has ceased to meet the requirements of

other property held by the Subcustodian other than property of the Bank's
customers held solely for the benefit of customers of the Bank; and
(d) In the event the subcustodian holds Property in a securities
depository or clearing agency, such Subcustodian shall be required by its
agreement with the Bank to identify on its books such Property as being held of

depository or clearing agency is subject to permit independent public
accountants such reasonable access to the records of such subcustodian,

connection with the examination of the Fund's affairs or to take such other
action as the Bank in its judgment may deem sufficient to ensure such reasonable
access.
