Securities Depositories (a) Bank hereby represents to Customer that each securities depository listed on Schedule B is an Eligible Securities Depository. If Schedule B is amended, this representation shall be effective as to the amended Schedule on the date of such amendment. Bank shall promptly advise Customer if any securities depository listed on Schedule B ceases to be an Eligible Securities Depository.
(b) Bank shall provide Customer an analysis of the custody risks (which analyses may be provided to Customer electronically) associated with maintaining Customer’s Foreign Assets with each Eligible Securities Depository used by Bank and at which any Foreign Assets of Customer are held or are expected to be held. Bank shall use reasonable efforts to provide such analysis at least annually on March 31st of each calendar year (or, in the case of an Eligible Securities Depository not used by Bank as of the agreed upon date, prior to the initial placement of Customer’s Foreign Assets at such Depository after such date). Bank shall monitor the custody risks associated with maintaining Custo-mer’s Foreign Assets at each such Eligible Securities Depository on a continuing basis, and shall promptly notify Customer or its investment adviser of any material changes in such risks.
(c) Bank shall, upon Customer’s reasonable request from time to time, provide certain additional information (“Additional Information”) to Customer beyond the scope of the information Bank is otherwise obligated to provide to Customer under this Agreement, or any other agreement between the parties relating to Customer’s Foreign Assets. For example, Additional Information may relate to a country’s financial infrastructure, prevailing custody and settlement practices, laws applicable to the safekeeping and recovery of Foreign Assets held in custody, and the likelihood of nationalization, currency controls and similar risks, but shall not include information required to be provided under this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties relating to Customer’s Foreign Assets.
(d) Bank’s obligation to provide Customer with Additional Information shall be limited to the extent Additional Information is (i) already in the possession of Bank, or (ii) available to Bank using commercially reasonable means. Customer hereby acknowledges that: (i) Additional Information is designed solely to inform Customer of certain market conditions and procedures and is not intended as a recommendation to invest or not invest in particular markets; and (ii) Bank has gathered the information from sources it considers reliable, but does not assume responsibility for inaccuracies or incomplete information attributable to actions or omissions of third parties. (For this purpose, “third parties” shall not include any of the Subcustodians listed on Schedule A, except to the extent that, in a given case, a Subcustodian accurately transmitted information it had itself received from a third party (such as from a regulator or securities depository) rather than information it had generated itself.)
(e) Customer and Bank hereby acknowledge and agree that the decision to place Customer's Foreign Assets with an Eligible Securities Depository shall be made by Customer's investment adviser (subject to the Board's oversight) or the Customer, after consideration of the information provided by Bank and other information Customer deems relevant, and based on standards of care that are generally applicable to investment advisers and the Board. Further, the parties understand that the decision to place Customer’s Foreign Assets with an Eligible Securities Depository does not have to be made separately, but may be made in the overall context of the decision to invest in a particular country.

All accounts referred to in this Section shall be subject only to draft or order by the Custodian (or, if applicable, such Foreign Sub-Custodian) acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to hold cash received by or from or for the account of the Portfolio.
