Exhibit 99.(h)(2)
TRANSFER AGENCY AND SERVICE AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT made as of June 9, 2008, by and between XXXXXX XXXXXXX INSTITUTIONAL FUND INC. (the “Fund”), on behalf of each of its investment portfolios set forth on Schedule A attached hereto, which may be amended from time to time (each, a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”), and XXXXXX XXXXXXX SERVICES COMPANY INC. (“MSSCI”).
WHEREAS, the Fund desires to appoint MSSCI as its transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent and shareholder servicing agent and MSSCI desires to accept such appointment;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1 - TERMS OF APPOINTMENT; DUTIES OF MSSCI
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Fund hereby employs and appoints MSSCI to act as, and MSSCI agrees to act as, the transfer agent for each class of each Portfolio’s shares, whether now or hereafter authorized or issued (“Shares”), dividend disbursing agent and shareholder servicing agent in connection with any accumulation, open-account or similar plans provided to the holders of such Shares (“Shareholders”) and set out in the prospectuses and statement of additional information (“prospectus”) of the Fund, including without limitation any periodic investment plan or periodic withdrawal program.
1.2 MSSCI agrees that it will perform the following services, where applicable:
(a) In accordance with procedures established from time to time by agreement between the Fund and MSSCI, MSSCI shall:
(i) Receive for acceptance, orders for the purchase of Shares, and promptly deliver payment and appropriate documentation therefor to the custodian of the assets of the Fund (the “Custodian”);
(ii) Pursuant to purchase orders, issue the appropriate number of Shares and issue certificates therefor or hold such Shares in book form in the appropriate Shareholder account;
(iii) Receive for acceptance redemption and/or repurchase requests and redemption and/or repurchase directions, deliver the appropriate documentation therefor to the Custodian;
(iv) At the appropriate time as and when it receives monies paid to it by the Custodian with respect to any redemption and/or repurchase, pay over or cause to be paid over in the appropriate manner such monies as instructed by the redeeming or repurchasing Shareholders;
(v) Effect transfers of Shares by the registered owners thereof upon receipt of appropriate instructions;
(vi) Prepare and transmit payments for dividends and distributions declared by the Fund;
(vii) Calculate any sales charges payable by a Shareholder on purchases and/or redemptions of Shares of the Fund as such charges may be reflected in the prospectus;
(viii) Maintain records of account for and advise the Fund and its Shareholders as to the foregoing; and
(ix) Record the issuance of Shares of the Fund and the Portfolios and maintain pursuant to Rule 17Ad-10(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“1934 Act”) a record of the total number of Shares of the Fund and the Portfolios which are authorized, based upon data provided to it by the Fund, and issued and outstanding. MSSCI shall also provide to the Fund on a regular basis the total number of Shares that are authorized, issued and outstanding and shall notify the Fund in case any proposed issue of Shares by the Fund or a Portfolio would result in an over-issuance. In case any issue of Shares would result in an over-issuance, MSSCI shall refuse to issue such Shares and shall not countersign and issue any certificates requested for such Shares. When recording the issuance of Shares, MSSCI shall have no obligation to take cognizance of any Blue Sky laws relating to the issue of sale of such Shares, which functions shall be the sole responsibility of the Fund.
(b) In addition to and not in lieu of the services set forth in the above paragraph (a), MSSCI shall:
(i) perform all of the customary services of a transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent and, as relevant, shareholder servicing agent in connection with dividend reinvestment, accumulation, open-account or similar plans (including without limitation any periodic investment plan or periodic withdrawal program), including but not limited to, maintaining all Shareholder accounts, preparing Shareholder meeting lists, mailing proxies, receiving and tabulating proxies, mailing shareholder reports and prospectuses to current Shareholders, withholding taxes on U.S. resident and non-resident alien accounts, preparing and filing appropriate forms required with respect to dividends and distributions by federal tax authorities for all Shareholders, preparing and mailing confirmation forms and statements of account to Shareholders for all purchases and redemptions of Shares and notices and other documents related to repurchases and other confirmable transactions in Shareholder accounts, preparing and mailing activity statements for Shareholders and providing Shareholder account information;
(ii) open any and all bank accounts which may be necessary or appropriate in order to provide the foregoing services; and
(iii) provide a system that will enable the Fund to monitor the total number of Shares sold in each State or other jurisdiction.
(c) In addition, the Fund shall:
(i) identify to MSSCI in writing those transactions and assets to be treated as exempt from Blue Sky reporting for each State; and
(ii) verify the inclusion on the system prior to activation of each State in which Fund shares may be sold and thereafter monitor the daily purchases and sales for shareholders in each State. The responsibility of MSSCI for the Fund’s status under the
securities laws of any State or other jurisdiction is limited to the inclusion on the system of each State as to which the Fund has informed MSSCI that shares may be sold in compliance with state securities laws and the reporting of purchases and sales in each such State to the Fund as provided above and as agreed from time to time by the Fund and MSSCI.
(d) MSSCI agrees that its duties and obligations hereunder will be performed in a competent and efficient manner with due diligence in accordance with reasonable industry practice, and that the necessary facilities, equipment and personnel for such performance will be provided. In order to assure compliance with this Section and to implement a cooperative effort to improve and maintain the quality of transfer agency, dividend disbursing and shareholder services received by each of the Portfolios and their shareholders, MSSCI agrees to provide and maintain quantitative performance objectives, including maximum target turn-around times and maximum target error rates, for the various services provided hereunder. MSSCI also agrees to provide a reporting system designed to provide the Board of Directors (collectively, the “Board of Directors”), of the Fund on a quarterly basis with quantitative data comparing actual performance for the period with the performance objectives. The foregoing procedures are designed to provide a basis for continuing monitoring by the Board of Directors of the quality of services rendered hereunder.
(e) MSSCI shall provide such additional services and functions not specifically described herein as may be mutually agreed between MSSCI and the Fund. Procedures applicable to such services may be established from time to time by agreement between the Fund and MSSCI.
ARTICLE 2 - FEES AND EXPENSES
2.1 For performance by MSSCI pursuant to this Agreement, the Fund agrees to pay MSSCI the fees provided in the fee schedule attached hereto as Schedule B as agreed from time to time by the Fund and MSSCI.
2.2 In addition to the amounts paid under Section 2.1 above, the Fund agrees to reimburse MSSCI promptly for the Fund’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses or advances paid on its behalf by MSSCI in connection with its performance under this Agreement for postage, freight, envelopes, checks, drafts, continuous forms, reports and statements, telephone, telegraph, costs of outside mailing firms, necessary outside record storage costs, media for storage of records (e.g., microfilm, microfiche and computer tapes) and printing costs incurred due to special requirements of the Fund. In addition, any other special out-of-pocket expenses paid by MSSCI at the specific request of any of the Fund will be promptly reimbursed by the requesting Fund.

5.2 MSSCI shall indemnify and hold the Fund harmless from or against any and all Losses arising out of or attributable to any action or failure or omission to act by MSSCI as a result of the lack of good faith, negligence, willful misconduct, or the breach of any representation or warranty of MSSCI, its officers, employees or agents.
