Common use of CONCERNING MARGIN ACCOUNTS, SENIOR SECURITY Clause in Contracts

CONCERNING MARGIN ACCOUNTS, SENIOR SECURITY. ACCOUNTS, AND COLLATERAL ACCOUNTS 1. The Custodian shall establish a Senior Security Ac- count and from time to time make such deposits thereto, or withdrawals therefrom, as specified in a Certificate. Such Certificate shall specify the Series for which such deposit or withdrawal is to be made and the amount of cash and/or the amount and kind of Securities specifically allocated to such Series to be deposited in, or withdrawn from, such Senior Security Account for such Series. In the event that the Fund fails to specify in a Certificate the Series, the name of the issuer, the title and the number of shares or the principal amount of any particular Securities to be deposited by the Custodian into, or withdrawn from, a Senior Securities Ac- count, the Custodian shall be under no obligation to make any such deposit or withdrawal and shall promptly notify the Fund that no such deposit has been made. 2. The Custodian shall make deliveries or payments from a Margin Account to the broker, dealer, futures commission merchant or Clearing Member in whose name, or for whose benefit, the account was established as specified in the Margin Account Agreement. 3. Amounts received by the Custodian as payments or distributions with respect to Securities deposited in any Margin Account shall be dealt with in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Margin Account Agreement. 4. The Custodian shall have a continuing lien and security interest in and to any property at any time held by the Custodian in any Collateral Account described herein. In accordance with applicable law the Custodian may enforce its lien and realize on any such property whenever the Custodian has made payment or delivery pursuant to any Put Option guarantee letter or similar document or any receipt issued hereunder by the Custodian. In the event the Custodian should realize on any such property net proceeds which are less than the Custodian's obligations under any Put Option guarantee letter or similar document or any receipt, such deficiency shall be a debt owed the Custodian by the Fund within the scope of Article XIV herein. 5. On each business day the Custodian shall furnish the Fund with a statement with respect to each Margin Account in which money or Securities are held specifying as of the close of business on the previous business day: (a) the name of the Margin Account; (b) the amount and kind of Securities held therein; and (c) the amount of money held therein. The Custodian shall make available upon request to any broker, dealer, or futures commission merchant specified in the name of a Margin Account a copy of the statement furnished the Fund with respect to such Margin Account. 6. The Custodian shall establish a Collateral Account and from time to time shall make such deposits thereto as may be specified in a Certificate. Promptly after the close of business on each business day in which cash and/or Securities are maintained in a Collateral Account for any Series, the Custodian shall furnish the Fund with a statement with respect to such Collateral Account specifying the amount of cash and/or the amount and kind of Securities held therein. No later than the close of business next succeeding the delivery to the Fund of such statement, the Fund shall furnish to the Custodian a Certificate or Written Instructions specifying the then market value of the Securities described in such state- ment. In the event such then market value is indicated to be less than the Custodian's obligation with respect to any outstanding Put Option guarantee letter or similar document, the Fund shall promptly specify in a Certificate the ad- ditional cash and/or Securities to be deposited in such Col- lateral Account to eliminate such deficiency.
