Transaction Processing All orders are subject to acceptance by us and by the Fund or its transfer agent, and become effective only upon confirmation by us. If required by law, each transaction shall be confirmed in writing on a fully disclosed basis and if confirmed by us, a copy of each confirmation shall be sent to you if you so request. All sales are made subject to receipt of shares by us from the Funds. We reserve the right in our discretion, without notice, to suspend the sale of shares of the Funds or withdraw the offering of shares of the Funds entirely. Orders will be effected at the price(s) next computed on the day they are received if, as set forth in the applicable Fund’s current Prospectus, the orders are received by us or an agent appointed by us or the Fund prior to the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange, generally 4:00 p.m. eastern time (“Close of Trading”). Orders received after that time will be effected at the price(s) computed on the next business day. All orders must be accompanied by payment in U.S. Dollars. Orders payable by check must be drawn payable in U.S. Dollars on a U.S. bank, for the full amount of the investment.

You represent and warrant that all orders for the purchase, exchange or redemption of Fund shares transmitted to FundSERV for processing on or as of a given business day (Day 1) shall have been received by you prior to the Close of Trading on Day 1. Such orders shall receive the share price next calculated following the Close of Trading on Day 1 .You represent and warrant that orders received by you after the Close of Trading on Day 1 shall be treated by you and transmitted to FundSERV as if received on the next business day (Day 2). Such orders shall receive the share price next calculated following the Close of Trading on Day 2. You represent that you have systems in place reasonably designed to prevent orders received after the Close of Trading on Day 1 from being executed with orders received before the Close of Trading on Day 1.
Sub-processing 11.1 The data importer shall not subcontract any of its processing operations performed on behalf of the data exporter under the Clauses without the prior written consent of the data exporter. Where the data importer subcontracts its obligations under the Clauses, with the consent of the data exporter, it shall do so only by way of a written agreement with the sub-processor which imposes the same obligations on the sub- processor as are imposed on the data importer under the Clauses. Where the sub-processor fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under such written agreement the data importer shall remain fully liable to the data exporter for the performance of the sub-processor’s obligations under such agreement.
11.2 The prior written contract between the data importer and the sub-processor shall also provide for a third-party beneficiary clause as laid down in Clause 3 for cases where the data subject is not able to bring the claim for compensation referred to in paragraph 1 of Clause 6 against the data exporter or the data importer because they have factually disappeared or have ceased to exist in law or have become insolvent and no successor entity has assumed the entire legal obligations of the data exporter or data importer by contract or by operation of law. Such third-party liability of the sub-processor shall be limited to its own processing operations under the Clauses.

Fund Accounting Services (a) BNY, in performing the services required of it under the terms of this Agreement, shall be entitled to rely fully on the accuracy and validity of any and all instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation furnished to it by a Fund and shall have no duty or obligation to review the accuracy, validity or propriety of such instructions, explanations, information, specifications or documentation, including, without limitation, evaluations of securities; the amounts or formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual of Fund's liabilities and expenses; the amounts receivable and the amounts payable on the sale or purchase of securities; and amounts receivable or amounts payable for the sale or redemption of Fund shares effected by or on behalf of the Fund. In the event BNY's computations hereunder rely, in whole or in part, upon information, including, without limitation, bid, offer or market values of securities or other assets, or accruals of interest or earnings thereon, from a pricing or similar service utilized, or subscribed to, by BNY which BNY in its judgment deems reliable, or any other third party pricing source designated by the Trust, BNY shall not be responsible for, under any duty to inquire into, or deemed to make any assurances with respect to, the accuracy or completeness of such information. BNY shall not be required to inquire into any valuation of securities or other assets by the Fund or any third party described in this Section, even though BNY in performing services similar to the services provided pursuant to this Agreement for others may receive different valuations of the same or different securities of the same issuers.
(b) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the direction and approval of the Trust's Board, BNY shall perform the computations described in Schedule II at such times and dates and in the manner specified or described in the then-current prospectus(es) of a Fund. To the extent valuation of securities or a computation specified or described in a Fund's Pricing Procedures or then-current effective prospectus(es) is at any time inconsistent with any applicable laws or regulations, the Trust or BAAI shall immediately so notify BNY in writing and thereafter shall furnish BNY at all appropriate times with the values of such securities and such Fund's net asset value or other amounts otherwise to be calculated by BNY, or, subject to the prior approval of BNY, instruct BNY in writing to value securities and make such computations in a manner which the Trust or BAAI then represents in writing to be consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. The Trust or BAAI may also from time to time, subject to the prior approval of BNY, instruct BNY in writing to make computations other than as specified in this Section of this Agreement. By giving such instruction, the Trust or BAAI shall be deemed to have represented that such instruction is consistent with all applicable laws and regulations and the then-current effective prospectus(es) of the particular Fund. The Trust or BAAI shall have sole responsibility for determining the method of valuation of securities and the method of computations, and all computations, valuation of securities and the method of computing each Fund's net asset value shall be subject to approval by the Trust and BAAI. BNY shall not be liable for relying on any price provided by any pricing service believed by BNY to be reliable, and the Trust or BAAI shall furnish values when the same are not available from a pricing service utilized by BNY, with such furnishing to constitute an instruction to BNY to rely on the provided values.
(c) BNY shall be responsible for determining and properly reflecting in the computations made by it under this Agreement: (i) the taxable nature of any distribution or amount received or deemed received by, or payable to, a Fund; (ii) the taxable nature or effect on a Fund or its shareholders of any corporate actions, class actions, tax reclaims, tax refunds, or similar events; (iii) the taxable nature or taxable amount of any distribution or dividend paid, payable or deemed paid, by a Fund to its shareholders; (iv) the effect under any federal, state, or foreign income tax laws of a Fund making or not making any distribution or dividend payment, or any election with respect thereto; or (v) any tax accounting; provided, however, that if BNY is not certain of the taxable nature, amount or effect of any such item, it may seek instructions regarding the proper treatment of such item from the Trust or BAAI in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1(e), above, and shall have no liability for acting in reliance on such instructions.
