Common use of Advances for Settlement Clause in Contracts

Advances for Settlement. Except as otherwise may be agreed upon by the parties hereto, the Custodian shall not be required to comply with any Instructions to settle the purchase of any Investments on behalf of a Fund unless there is sufficient Cash in the account(s) pertaining to such Fund at the time or to settle the sale of any Investments from such an account(s) unless such Investments are in deliverable form. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the purchase price of such Investments exceeds the amount of Cash in the account(s) at the time of such purchase, the Custodian may, in its sole discretion, advance the amount of the difference in order to settle the purchase of such Investments. The amount of any such advance shall be deemed a loan from the Custodian to the Company payable on demand and bearing interest accruing from the date such loan is made up to but not including the date such loan is repaid at the Federal Funds rate plus 100 basis points and otherwise on the terms on which the Custodian makes similar overdrafts available from time to time. No prior action or course of dealing on Custodian’s part with respect to the settlement of transactions on the Fund’s behalf shall be asserted by Company or the Fund against Custodian for Custodian’s refusal to make Advances to settle any transaction for which Fund does not have sufficient available funds in the applicable currency in the Account. The Custodian shall not have any responsibility for delivery of a security not held in the Account. Whenever an Advance is made, the Fund agrees that Custodian shall have a continuing custodial lien over the Investments in the Accounts to the extent of and for the duration of such advance, in an amount sufficient to repay the indebtedness and any fee associated therewith, until repaid, and all the rights of a secured party under the Section 9-206 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in Ohio from time to time.
