Exhibit (g)(iii)
RULE 17F-5 AND 17F-7 SERVICES AGREEMENT
This Agreement is made, as of May 22, 2002, separately by and between each
of Schwab Capital Trust, Schwab Investments, The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family of Funds
and Schwab Annuity Portfolios (each a "Fund") and PFPC Trust Company ("PFPC ").
WHEREAS each Fund has retained PFPC to provide custody services to certain
of its investment portfolios (each a "Portfolio") pursuant to a Custodian
Services Agreement dated May 22, 2002.
WHEREAS each Portfolio may from time to time determine to invest and
maintain some of its assets outside of the United States.
WHEREAS, subject to and in accordance with the provisions set forth in this
Agreement, each Fund wishes to appoint PFPC to serve as Foreign Custody Manager
under Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 17f-5 ("Rule 17f-5") under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act") and to provide risk analysis and
monitoring required under sub-sections (a)(1)(i)(A) and (B) of Securities and
Exchange Commission Rule 17f-7 ("Rule 17f-7") under the 1940 Act.
WHEREAS, subject to and in accordance with the provisions set forth in this
Agreement, PFPC wishes to serve as Foreign Custody Manager under Rule 17f-5 and
provide risk analysis and monitoring required under sub-sections (a)(1)(i)(A)
and (B) of Rule 17f-7.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements
contained herein, each Fund and PFPC hereby agree as follows:
A. Foreign Custody Manager. With respect to "Foreign Assets" (as defined
below) in the jurisdictions listed on Schedule A hereto (as the same may be
changed by PFPC from time to time), PFPC will perform the duties of a "Foreign
Custody Manager" as set forth in Rule 17f-5, subject to and in accordance with
the provisions set out in this Agreement. In consideration of PFPC's agreement
to so perform, each Fund agrees to the provisions set forth in Paragraphs A and
C-L of this Agreement.
1.PFPC shall select, place and maintain "Foreign Assets" (as that term
is defined in Rule 17f-5(a)(2)) with an "Eligible Foreign Custodian" (as that
term is defined in Rule 17f-5(a)(1)), provided that PFPC shall have determined
that the Foreign Assets will be subject to reasonable care, based on the
standards applicable to custodians in the relevant market, after having
considered all factors relevant to the safekeeping of such Foreign Assets,
including, without limitation, those factors set forth in Rule
17f-5(c)(1)(i)-(iv).
2. PFPC will assure that each foreign custody arrangement with an
Eligible Foreign Custodian be governed by a written contract that PFPC has
determined provides for the reasonable care of Foreign Assets based on the
standards specified in Rule 17f-5(c)(1). Each such contract shall include,
without limitation, all of the provisions specified in Rule
17f-5(c)(2)(i)(A)-(F). Alternatively, each such contract may contain, in lieu of
any or all of the provisions specified in Rule 17f-5(c)(2)(i)(A)-(F), such other
provisions that PFPC reasonably determines will provide, in their entirety, the
same or a greater level of care and protection for a Fund's investments as the
specified provisions, in their entirety.
3. PFPC will establish and maintain a system for the regular monitoring
of the appropriateness of both maintaining the Foreign Assets with each Eligible
Foreign Custodian and the custody contractual arrangements with such Eligible
Foreign Custodians, it being understood, however, that in the event that PFPC
shall have determined that the existing Eligible Foreign Custodian in a given
country no longer affords reasonable care to Foreign Assets and that no other
Eligible Foreign Custodian in that country would afford reasonable care, PFPC
shall promptly so advise the applicable Fund and shall then act in accordance
with authorized instructions with respect to the disposition of the affected
Foreign Assets.
4. PFPC shall provide to each Fund's Board of Trustees written reports
notifying the Board of the placement of the Fund's Foreign Assets with a
particular Eligible Foreign Custodian and of any material change in the Fund's
foreign custody arrangements, with the reports to be provided to the Board at
such times as the Board may deem reasonable and appropriate based on the
circumstances of the Fund's arrangements. Any report provided by PFPC pursuant
to this Sub-Paragraph A.4 may be in electronic form.
5. For purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed that PFPC shall
not be responsible for any Foreign Custody Manager duties, including but not
limited to those described in Sub-Paragraphs A.1-4 above, with respect to any
securities depository.
6. In performing its duties under this Agreement, PFPC shall not
supervise, recommend or advise a Fund relative to the investment, purchase,
sale, retention or disposition of any Foreign Asset in any country, including
with respect to prevailing country risks. PFPC agrees to provide such
information in its possession as is specified in Schedule B hereto, as such
Schedule B may be amended from time to time between PFPC and a particular Fund.
In gathering such information, PFPC shall be subject to the standard of care set
forth in Paragraph D hereof, but shall not be deemed to warrant the specific
accuracy of such information. PFPC agrees to promptly notify a Fund at any time
that PFPC becomes aware of a material change to the information provided
pursuant to Schedule B, or if PFPC learns that any information previously
provided is incomplete or inaccurate. Each Fund hereby acknowledges that such
information is solely designed to inform the Fund of market conditions and
procedures and is not intended as a recommendation to invest or not invest in
particular markets.
7. Notwithstanding the provisions of any arrangements between any Fund
and PFPC or otherwise, but subject to Sub-Paragraphs A.1-3 above, each Fund
hereby agrees that its Foreign Assets may be maintained with any Eligible
Foreign Custodian.
B. Securities Depositories. PFPC will provide to the Funds the risk
analysis and monitoring required under sub-sections (a)(1)(i)(A) and (B) of Rule
17f-7 subject to and in accordance with the provisions set out in this
Agreement. In consideration of the provision of such risk analysis and
monitoring each Fund agrees to the provisions set forth in Paragraphs B through
L of this Agreement.
1. (a) As contemplated by Rule 17f-7, PFPC will provide a written
analysis (which may be in electronic form) to each Fund and its investment
adviser of the custody risks associated with maintaining the Fund's "Foreign
Assets" (as that term is defined in Rule 17f-5(a)(2) under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) with
each "Eligible Securities Depository" (as that term is defined in Rule
17f-7(b)(1)) listed on Schedule C hereto (as the same may be changed by PFPC
from time to time) and at which any Foreign Assets of the Fund are held or are
expected to be held. PFPC shall monitor the custody risks associated with
maintaining each applicable Fund's Foreign Assets at each such Eligible
Securities Depository on a continuing basis and shall promptly notify each
applicable Fund or its investment adviser in writing (which may be in electronic
form) of any material change in such risks.
(b) Based on the information available to it in the exercise of
diligence, PFPC shall determine the eligibility under Rule 17f-7(b)(1) of each
depository listed on Schedule C hereto (as the same may be changed by PFPC from
time to time) and shall promptly advise each Fund or its investment adviser in
writing (which may be in electronic form) if any such depository ceases to meet
the definition of an Eligible Securities Depository (as that term is defined in
Rule 17f-7(b)(1)).
2. Each Fund acknowledges that it may maintain Foreign Assets only at
the depositories listed on Schedule C hereto (as the same may be changed by PFPC
from time to time). Each Fund agrees and acknowledges that its Foreign Assets
may be held at any of the depositories listed on Schedule C hereto; provided
that if any Fund provides written notice to PFPC specifically stating that a
particular depository is not acceptable to it, then such Fund will not be deemed
to have agreed and acknowledged that its Foreign Assets may be held by that
particular depository.
3. Notwithstanding the provisions of any arrangements between any Fund
and PFPC or otherwise, each Fund hereby agrees that its Foreign Assets may be
maintained with any Eligible Securities Depository listed on Schedule C hereto
(provided that if any Fund provides written notice to PFPC specifically stating
that a particular depository is not acceptable to it, then such Fund will not be
deemed to have agreed that its Foreign Assets may be maintained by that
particular depository). PFPC will not be deemed to have chosen any such Eligible
Securities Depositories.
C. Third Parties. Each Fund acknowledges that PFPC (at its own expense) may
utilize a third party to carry out PFPC's activities set forth herein, provided
however, that the appointment or use of a third party will not relieve PFPC of
its obligations and responsibilities to a Fund under this Agreement, and PFPC
will be responsible and liable to a Fund for the acts or omissions of such third
party to the same extent that PFPC would be responsible and liable to the Fund
if such acts or omissions were PFPC's own in providing the services set forth in
this Agreement to such Fund (provided that in no event will PFPC be liable to a
Fund for any indirect, special or consequential losses or damages (regardless of
whether PFPC or such third party was aware of the possibility thereof)).
D. Responsibility and Indemnification. In providing services pursuant to
this Agreement, PFPC shall exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence
(such as a person having responsibility for the safekeeping of Foreign Assets
would exercise). PFPC will indemnify a Fund with respect to the services set
forth in this Agreement for the losses, liabilities and expenses suffered by the
Fund as a result of PFPC's (a) failure to exercise such reasonable care,
prudence and diligence (such as a person having responsibility for the
safekeeping of Foreign Assets would exercise), and (b) willful misfeasance, bad
faith, negligence or reckless disregard in carrying out its duties and
obligations under this Agreement, provided that in no event will PFPC be liable
to a Fund for any indirect, special or consequential losses or damages
(regardless of whether PFPC was aware of the possibility thereof). Each Fund
will indemnify PFPC for losses, liabilities and expenses suffered by PFPC with
respect to the matters set forth in this Agreement, except that a Fund will not
indemnify PFPC for such losses, liabilities and expenses arising out of PFPC's
(a) failure to exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence (such as a
person having responsibility for the safekeeping of Foreign Assets would
exercise) in providing services to such Fund under this Agreement, or (b)
willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties
and obligations in providing services to such Fund under this
Agreement, provided that in no event will the Fund be liable for any indirect,
special or consequential losses or damages (regardless of whether the Fund was
aware of the possibility thereof).
E. Compensation. The fees for services rendered by PFPC under this
Agreement with respect to a particular Fund are included in the separate
custodian services fee letter between the Fund and PFPC in effect on the date
hereof, or as the same may be amended from time to time.
F. Integration. This Agreement shall supercede and replace each of the
Amendments to the respective Custodian Services Agreements between PFPC and
the Funds dated as of July 2, 2001 relating to PFPC's duties as Foreign
Custody Manager under Rule 17f-5 and relating to PFPC's duties to provide
risk analysis and monitoring required under sub-sections (a)(1)(i)(A) and (B)
of Rule 17f-7.
G. Choice of Law. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard
to its conflict of laws principles. This Agreement may be executed in
counterparts, all of which when taken together shall constitute one contract.
Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile transmission
shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement. Each party hereto represents that it has taken all requisite action
(corporate or otherwise) to authorize the execution and delivery of this
Agreement. The captions in this Agreement are included for convenience of
reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the provisions hereof or
otherwise affect their construction or effect.
H. Declarations of Trust. The respective names Schwab Capital Trust, Schwab
Investments, The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Family of Funds and Schwab Annuity Portfolios
refers to each of such respective Funds and its Trustees, as Trustees but not
individually or personally, acting under their respective Declarations of Trust
dated May 6, 1993, October 26, 1990, May 9, 1995 and January 21, 1994. The
obligations of any one of the aforementioned Funds entered into in the name of
or on behalf of a Portfolio of such Fund by any of the Trustees, representatives
or agents of such Fund are made not individually, but in such capacities. Such
obligations are not binding upon any of the Trustees, shareholders or
representatives of such Fund personally, but bind only the assets of such Fund
belonging to such Portfolio for the enforcement of any claims against such Fund.
I. Independent Transactions. Transactions entered into by one or more
Portfolios of the Funds are considered independent transactions and shall in no
way affect transactions entered into by any other Portfolio(s). Any amount owed
by the Funds with respect to any obligation arising out of the Agreement, as
amended, shall be paid only out of the assets and property of the particular
Portfolio(s) that entered into such transaction.
J. Each Fund represents that the Foreign Assets which are the subject
matter of this Agreement are subject to the 1940 Act. PFPC represents that
it is a U.S. Bank as defined in Rule 17f-5.
K. This Agreement may be terminated with respect to a particular Fund by
either such Fund or PFPC upon 60 days written notice to the other party.
L. PFPC is entering into this Agreement with each of the Funds separately,
and any duty, obligation or liability owed or incurred by PFPC with respect to a
particular Fund shall be owed or incurred solely with respect to that Fund, and
shall not in any way create any duty, obligation or liability with respect to
any other
Fund. This Agreement shall be interpreted to carry out the intent of the parties
hereto that PFPC is entering into a separate arrangement with each separate
Fund.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the respective parties hereto have caused this
Agreement to be executed on the day and year first above written.
