Standard of Service As Agent for the Fund, you agree to provide service equal to or better than that provided by you or others furnishing shareholder services to other open-end investment companies ("Standard") at a fee comparable to the fee paid you for your services hereunder. The Standard shall include at least the following: (a) Prompt reconciliation of any differences as to the number of outstanding shares between various Facility records or between Facility records and records of an MFS Fund's Custodian; (b) Prompt processing of shareholder correspondence and of other matters requiring action by you; (c) Prompt clearance of any daily volume backlog; (d) Providing innovative services and technological improvements; (e) Meeting the requirements of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over you or the Fund; and (f) Prompt reconciliation of all bank accounts under your control belonging to the Fund or MFS. If any MFS Fund serviced by you is reasonably of the view that the service provided by you does not meet the Standard, it shall give you written notice specifying the particulars, and you then shall have 120 days in which to restore the service so that it meets the Standard, except that such period shall be 180 days with respect to meeting that portion of the Standard described above in item (d) of this paragraph 4. If at the end of such period the Fund remains reasonably of the view that the service provided by you, in the particulars specified, does not meet the Standard, then the MFS Fund or Funds having a majority of the accounts for which you are then Agent may, by appropriate action (including the concurrence of a majority of the Trustees or Directors, as the case may be, of such MFS Fund or Funds who are not interested persons of MFS), elect to terminate this Agreement for cause as to all such Funds upon 90 days notice to you. Upon termination hereof, the Fund shall pay you such compensation as may be due to you as of the date of such termination, and shall likewise reimburse you for any costs, expenses, and disbursements reasonably incurred by you to such date in the performance of your duties hereunder.
