2.     Appointment.

UBSTC may, with prior notification to the Fund, retain a sub-transfer agent or third-party provider in order to enable it to carry out any of its duties and responsibilities under this Agreement; however, by doing so, UBSTC will not be relieved of any of its duties and responsibilities under this Agreement.

(a) Certificate of Incorporation: a copy of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Fund, and all amendments thereto, certified by the Department of State of Puerto Rico;

(b) By-laws: a copy of the By-laws of the Fund incorporating all amendments thereto, certified by the Secretary of the Fund under the Fund’s corporate seal;

Except as specifically set forth herein, UBSTC assumes no responsibility for such compliance by the Fund.

5.     Instructions. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, UBSTC shall act only pursuant to Oral Instructions or Written Instructions. UBSTC shall be entitled to rely upon any Oral Instructions or Written Instructions it receives from an Authorized Person pursuant to this Agreement. UBSTC may assume that any Oral Instructions or Written Instruction received

2

hereunder is not in any way inconsistent with the provisions of organizational documents or any vote, resolution or proceeding of the Board or of the Fund’s shareholders, unless and until receives Written Instructions to the contrary.

The Fund agrees to provide UBSTC Written Instructions confirming Oral Instructions so that UBSTC receives the Written Instructions by the close of business on the business day immediately following the day such Oral Instructions are received. The fact that such confirming Written Instructions are not received by UBSTC shall in no way invalidate the transactions or enforceability of the transactions authorized by the Oral Instructions. Where Oral Instructions or Written Instructions reasonably appear to have been received from an Authorized Person, UBSTC shall incur no liability to the Fund in acting upon such instructions provided that UBSTC’s actions comply with the other provisions of this Agreement.

6.     Right to Receive Advice.

(a) Advice of the Fund. If UBSTC is in doubt as to any action it should or should not take, UBSTC will request directions or advice, including Oral Instructions or Written Instructions, from the Fund.

(c) Conflicting Advice. In the event of a conflict between the directions, advice, Oral Instructions or Written Instructions that UBSTC receives from the Fund and the advice it receives from counsel, UBSTC may rely upon and follow the advice of counsel. In the event UBSTC chooses to rely on the advice of counsel, UBSTC shall so advise the Fund and UBSTC shall remain liable for any action or omission on the part of UBSTC which constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard by UBSTC of any of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this this Agreement.

(d) Protection of UBSTC. UBSTC shall be protected in any action it takes or does not take in reliance upon directions, advice, Oral Instructions or Written Instructions it receives from the Fund or from counsel in accordance with this Agreement and which UBSTC believes, in good faith, to be consistent with those directions, advice, Oral Instructions or Written Instructions.

Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to impose an obligation upon UBSTC (i) to seek such directions, advice, Oral Instructions or Written Instructions, or (ii) to act in accordance with such directions, advice, Oral or Written Instructions unless otherwise required by this Agreement. Nothing in this subsection shall excuse UBSTC when an action or the omission on the part of UBSTC constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard by UBSTC of any duties, obligations or responsibilities hereunder; provided, however, to the

3

extent UBSTC fails to carry out its duties under Section 13 of this Agreement, neither UBSTC nor its affiliates shall be liable to the Fund for any consequential, special, or indirect losses, or damages which the Fund may incur or suffer by or as a consequence of UBSTC’s or its affiliates’ performance of the services provided hereunder, whether or not likelihood of such losses or damages was known by UBSTC or its affiliates.

7.     Records and Visits. The books and records pertaining to the Fund required by the United States securities laws which are in the possession or under the control of UBSTC shall be the property of the Fund. Such books and records shall be prepared and maintained as required by the United States securities laws applicable to closed-end management investment companies registered under the 1940 Act. Authorized Persons shall have access to such books and records at all times during UBSTC’s normal business hours. Upon the reasonable request of the Fund, copies of any such books and records shall be provided by UBSTC to an Authorized Person at the Fund’s expense.

8.     Compensation. As compensation for services rendered by UBSTC during the term of this Agreement, the Fund will pay to UBSTC the fee set forth on Exhibit C hereto, as such exhibit may be amended from time to time by the parties hereto.

9.     Indemnification.

(a) The Fund agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless UBSTC and its affiliates and their respective directors, trustees, officers, agents and employees, from any and all claims, losses or damages arising directly or indirectly from any action or omission to act taken or omitted by or on behalf of UBSTC in connection with the provision of services to the Fund under this Agreement, provided that in each case in which indemnification is sought, UBSTC has not acted with willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this Agreement.

(b) UBSTC agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Fund and its affiliates and their respective directors, trustees, officers, agents and employees, from any and all claims, losses or damages arising directly or indirectly out of UBSTC’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this Agreement.

(c) Insurance. UBSTC shall maintain insurance of the types and in the amounts deemed by it to be appropriate. To the extent that insurance policies provide for coverage of claims for liability or indemnity by the parties set forth in this Agreement, the contracts of insurance shall take precedence, and no provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve an insurer of any obligation to pay claims to the Fund, UBSTC or other insured party which would otherwise be a covered claim in the absence of any provision of this Agreement.

UBSTC shall review such systems and procedures on a periodic basis and the Fund shall have access to review these systems and procedures.

UBSTC shall be obligated to exercise due care and diligence in the performance of its duties hereunder, to act in good faith and to use its best efforts in performing services provided for under this Agreement. UBSTC shall be liable for any damages arising out of or in connection with UBSTC’s performance or omission or failure to perform its duties under this Agreement to the extent such damages arise out of UBSTC’s gross negligence, reckless disregard of its duties hereunder, bad faith or willful misfeasance.

13.     Description of Services. UBSTC shall perform the services set forth on Exhibit B, as such exhibit may be amended by the parties hereto from time to time. In addition, UBSTC shall perform the following duties as the Fund’s transfer agent, registrar, dividend disbursing agent and shareholder servicing agent.

(a) Dividends and Distributions. Upon receipt of a resolution of the Board authorizing the declaration and payment of dividends and distributions, UBSTC shall issue such dividends and distributions in cash or if the resolution so provides, pay such dividends and distributions in Shares, as provided in the Fund then current prospectus (the “Prospectus”) and Dividend Reinvestment Plan. Such issuance or payment shall be made after deduction and payment of the required amount of funds to be withheld in accordance with any applicable tax laws or other laws, rules or regulations. UBSTC shall mail to the Fund’s shareholders such tax forms and other information, or permissible substitute notice, relating to dividends and

7

distributions paid by the Fund as are required to be filed and mailed by applicable law, rule or regulation.

Pursuant to Written Instructions UBSTC may arrange for the direct payment of cash dividends and distributions to any shareholder by the Fund’s custodian, instead of UBSTC disbursing such funds to the shareholder after receipt from the Fund’s custodian.

UBSTC shall prepare, maintain and file with the Puerto Rico Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service and/or other appropriate taxing authorities reports relating to all dividends as required by any applicable tax laws or other laws, rules or regulations.

In accordance with the Fund’s Prospectus and such procedures and controls as are mutually agreed upon from time to time by and among the Fund and the Fund’s custodian, UBSTC shall process applications from the Fund’s shareholders relating to the Fund’s Dividend Reinvestment Plan and will effect purchases of Shares in connection with the Dividend Reinvestment Plan.

(b) Transfer Restrictions; Stock Certificates. In the absence of contrary Written Instructions, UBSTC is authorized to take the following actions:

(i) Stock Certificates.

1) The Fund will supply UBSTC with a sufficient supply of stock certificates representing the Shares in the form approved from time to time by the Board. Such stock certificates shall be properly signed, manually or by facsimile signature, by an Authorized Person and shall bear the corporate seal or facsimile thereof of the Fund, and notwithstanding the death, resignation or removal of any officer of the Fund, such executed certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signature of such officer shall remain valid and may be issued to shareholders until UBSTC is otherwise directed by Written Instructions.

2) UBSTC shall place a stop notice against any certificate reported to be lost or stolen and shall comply with all applicable federal regulatory and Puerto Rico law requirements for reporting such loss or alleged misappropriation. In the case of the loss or destruction of any certificate representing Shares, no new certificate shall be issued in lieu thereof, unless there shall first have been furnished an appropriate bond of indemnity issued by the surety company approved by UBSTC.

3) Upon receipt of signed stock certificates, which shall be in proper form for transfer, and upon cancellation or destruction thereof, UBSTC shall countersign, register and issue new certificates for the same number of Shares and

8

shall deliver them pursuant to instructions received from the transferor, and the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the federal securities laws relating to the transfer of Shares.

4) Upon receipt of the stock certificates, which shall be in proper form for transfer, together with the shareholder’s instructions to hold such stock certificates for safekeeping, UBSTC shall reduce such Shares to uncertificated status, while retaining the appropriate registration in the name of the shareholder upon the transfer books.

(c) UBSTC agrees to furnish the Fund with (1) annual reports of its financial condition, consisting of a balance sheet, earnings statement and any other financial information as is made public by UBSTC in connection with the foregoing and (2) semi-annually with a copy of a Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements No. 16 (SSAE 16), report on controls at a Service Organization or successor report issued by UBSTC’s certified public accountants pursuant to Rule 17Ad-13 under the Exchange Act as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (if applicable). The annual financial statements will be certified by UBSTC’s certified public accountants and the posting of a current copy thereof on UBSTC’s website shall be deemed to be delivery to the Fund.

(d) UBSTC shall assist the Fund to fulfill the Fund’s responsibilities under certain provisions of USA PATRIOT Act, Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act, Title V of Gramm Xxxxx Xxxxxx Act, Securities Act, Exchange Act, and 1940 Act, including, inter alia, Rule 38a-1, by maintaining a compliance program that adequately covers certain business processes relating to key activities of the transfer agent/service provider function. These business processes are anti-money laundering, certificate processing, correspondence processing, fingerprinting, lost securityholder processing, reconciliation and control, transaction processing, customer identification, transfer agent administration, safeguarding fund assets and securities, disaster recovery and business continuity. UBSTC reserves the right to make changes thereto as experience suggests alternative and better ways to perform the affected function provided that the affected function will not be diminished in comparison with those currently provided by UBSTC to the Fund under this Agreement. UBSTC shall provide the Fund with written notice of any such changes.

(e) UBSTC shall employ commercially reasonable measures to comply on behalf of a Fund with the unclaimed property laws and regulations of the States and Territories of the United States (as defined below) (“Unclaimed Property Laws”) with respect to Eligible Property (as defined below). In connection with its performance of the foregoing services (“Unclaimed Property Services”), UBSTC and its subcontractors shall be entitled to rely

(ii) “Eligible Property” means property beneficially owned by a person or entity other than the Fund and held in a bank account maintained by UBSTC for or on behalf of the Fund, or property held in a shareholder account, which is (x) subject to reporting or escheat under an Unclaimed Property Law, (y) of a nature or type or classification reasonably related to the services performed by UBSTC under this Agreement (such as cash amounts representing non- negotiated dividend checks and shares in abandoned shareholder accounts), and (z) under the control of UBSTC.

14.     Access to Policies and Procedures. In connection with the Fund’s obligations under Rule 38a-1 of the 1940 Act, UBSTC shall (A) provide to the Fund its policies and procedures related to the services that UBSTC is required to perform pursuant to this Agreement and summaries thereof, (B) provide the Fund e-mail notification within two (2) business days of updates to such policies and procedures, and (C) upon request but not more frequently than quarterly provide certifications with respect to such policies and procedures.

15.     Authorized Shares. The Fund’s authorized capital stock consists of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share. UBSTC shall record issues of all Shares and shall notify the Fund in case any proposed issue of Shares by the Fund shall result in an over-issue. In case any issue of Shares would result in an over-issue, UBSTC shall refuse to issue such Shares and shall not countersign and issue certificates for such Shares.

16.     Duration and Termination.

10

including, a certified list of the shareholders of the Fund with name, address, and if provided, taxpayer identification or Social Security number, and a complete record of the account of each shareholder. To the extent that UBSTC incurs expenses related to a transfer of responsibilities to a successor, other than expenses involved in UBSTC’s providing the Fund’s books and records to the successors. UBSTC shall be entitled to be reimbursed for such extraordinary expenses.

(c) Any termination effected pursuant to this paragraph shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under Section 9 hereof.
