LOAN SERVICES ADDENDUM

TO CUSTODIAN AGREEMENT

ADDENDUM to that certain Amended, Restated and Consolidated Custodian Agreement (the “Consolidated Agreement”) by and among each open-end management investment company (a “Fund”) identified on the signature page thereto or made subject thereto pursuant to Section 25 thereof and State Street Bank and Trust Company, including its subsidiaries and other affiliates (the “Bank”). As used in this Addendum, the term “Fund”, in relation to a Loan (as defined below), includes a Portfolio on whose behalf the Fund acts with respect to the Loan.

The following provisions will apply with respect to interests in commercial loans, including loan participations, whether the loans are bilateral or syndicated and whether any obligor is located in or outside of the United States (collectively, “Loans”), made or acquired by a Fund on behalf of one or more of its Portfolios.

SECTION 1. PAYMENT CUSTODY. If a Fund wishes the Bank to receive payments directly with respect to a Loan for credit to the bank account maintained by the Bank for the Fund under the Consolidated Agreement,

(a)         the Fund will cause the Bank to be named as the Fund’s nominee for payment purposes under the relevant financing documents, e.g., in the case of a syndicated loan, the administrative contact for the agent bank, and otherwise provide for the payment to the Bank of the payments with respect to the Loan; and

(b)         the Bank will credit to the bank account maintained by the Bank for the Fund under the Consolidated Agreement any payment on or in respect of the Loan actually received by the Bank and identified as relating to the Loan, but with any amount credited being conditional upon clearance and actual receipt by the Bank of final payment.

SECTION 2. MONITORING. If a Fund wishes the Bank to monitor payments on and forward notices relating to a Loan,

(a)         the Fund will deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Bank a schedule identifying the amount and due dates of the scheduled principal payments, the scheduled interest payment dates and related payment amount information, and such other information with respect to the Loan as the Bank may reasonably require in order to perform its services hereunder (collectively, “Loan Information”) and in such form and format as the Bank may reasonably request; and

(b)         the Bank will (i) if the amount of a principal, interest, fee or other payment with respect to the Loan is not received by the Bank on the date on which the amount is scheduled to be paid as reflected in the Loan Information, provide a report to the Fund that the payment has not been received and (ii) if the Bank receives any consent solicitation, notice of default or similar notice from any syndication agent, lead or obligor on the Loan, undertake reasonable efforts to forward the notice to the Fund.

6

SECTION 3. EXCULPATION OF THE BANK.

(a)         Payment Custody and Monitoring. The Bank will have no liability for any delay or failure by the Fund or any third party in providing Loan Information to the Bank or for any inaccuracy or incompleteness of any Loan Information. The Bank will have no obligation to verify, investigate, recalculate, update or otherwise confirm the accuracy or completeness any Loan Information or other information or notices received by the Bank in respect of the Loan. The Bank will be entitled to (i) rely upon the Loan Information provided to it by or on behalf of the Fund or any other information or notices that the Bank may receive from time to time from any syndication agent, lead or obligor or any similar party with respect to the Loan and (ii) update its records on the basis of such information or notices as may from time to time be received by the Bank.

(b)         Any Service. The Bank will have no obligation to (i) determine whether any necessary steps have been taken or requirements have been met for the Fund to have acquired good or record title to a Loan, (ii) ensure that the Fund’s acquisition of the Loan has been authorized by the Fund, (iii) collect past due payments on the Loan, preserve any rights against prior parties, exercise any right or perform any obligation in connection with the Loan (including taking any action in connection with any consent solicitation, notice of default or similar notice received from any syndication agent, lead or obligor on the Loan) or otherwise take any other action to enforce the payment obligations of any obligor on the Loan, (iv) become itself the record title holder of the Loan or (v) make any advance of its own funds with respect to the Loan.

(c)         Miscellaneous. The Bank will not be considered to have been or be charged with knowledge of the sale of a Loan by the Fund, unless and except to the extent that the Bank shall have received written notice of the sale from the Fund and the proceeds of the sale have been received by the Bank for credit to the bank account maintained by the Bank for the Fund under the Consolidated Agreement. If any question arises as to the Bank’s duties under this Addendum, the Bank may request instructions from the Fund and will be entitled at all times to refrain from taking any action unless it has received Proper Instructions from the Fund. The Bank will in all events have no liability, risk or cost for any action taken or omitted with respect to the Loan pursuant to Proper Instructions. The Bank will have no responsibilities or duties whatsoever with respect to the Loan except as are expressly set forth in this Addendum.
