MONEY MARKET SERVICES AGREEMENT

Exhibit 28(h)(6)

MONEY MARKET SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Agreement is effective as of May 1, 2012, by and between the fund identified on Appendix A hereto (the “Fund”) and STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, a Massachusetts trust company (“State Street” and together with the Fund, the “Parties”).

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Fund is an open-end management investment company registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by means of a registration statement under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and has established a certain series that is a “money market fund” within the meaning of Rule 2a-7 under the1940 Act (“Rule 2a-7”) and which is listed on Appendix A hereto (the “Portfolio”); and

WHEREAS, the Fund desires to retain State Street to furnish certain money market regulatory services to the Portfolio (the “Services”), and State Street is willing to furnish such Services, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1. ENGAGEMENT OF STATE STREET AND SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED.

1.1 Services. State Street shall provide the Services to the Portfolio subject to the authorization and direction of the Fund, to assist the Portfolio’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 2a-7, that a money market fund: (i) conduct periodic stress testing of its ability to maintain a stable net asset value based upon certain hypothetical events; (ii) file with the SEC a monthly report of its portfolio holdings on Form N-MFP current as of the last business day of the previous month, no later than the fifth business day of each month (the “Form N-MFP Deadline”); and (iii) post on its website, no later than the fifth business day of the month (the “Portfolio Holdings Deadline”), a schedule of its portfolio investments as of the last business day of the previous month.

1.1.1 Standard Stress Testing Suite Services. State Street will provide stress tests based on State Street’s Standard Stress Testing Suite (described below). Testing will be performed daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly as the Fund instructs State Street. State Street risk specialists will be available to assist the Fund in interpreting stress test results. State Street will stress test the Portfolio’s investment portfolio based on the following pre-determined events that are part of its Standard Stress Testing Suite:

(a) Interest rate shifts. State Street will test for the impact of shifts in interest rates in multiple ways. First, State Street will apply changes in various interest rates equally across all points on the yield curve. In addition, State Street will perform “non-parallel” interest rate testing in which, for example, it would assume that long-term rates increased more than short-term rates or that mid-term rates shifted while long- and short-term rates remain fixed.

(b) Increase in shareholder redemptions. State Street will perform tests in which it assumes that a certain number of shares are being redeemed at $1.00 per share at a time when the net asset value is, for example, $0.9975 and then measure the resulting impact on net asset value for remaining shareholders. State Street will also perform a combined test measuring the impact of shareholder redemptions and interest rate shifts.

(c) Downgrades in, and defaults of, securities. Securities downgrades typically occur when credit spreads are widening. State Street will perform tests measuring the impact of credit spreads widening and narrowing. In addition, State Street will assume that individual securities in the Portfolio’s investment portfolio have defaulted and determine the default events that will cause a Portfolio to “break a buck”.

(d) Comparative shifts in yields. State Street will measure the impact of widening and narrowing yields against various industry-standard benchmarks.

1.1.2 Stress Testing Reports. State Street will provide to the Fund stress testing reports at the agreed upon frequency in Excel or pdf format. Each report will include the dates the stress tests were performed and the magnitude of the hypothetical event that would cause the deviation of the Portfolio’s net asset value calculated using available market quotations (or appropriate substitutes which reflect current market conditions) from its net asset value per share to exceed  ¹/2 of 1%. State Street may from time to time add additional tests to the Standard Stress Testing Suite and will provide the results of such tests as part of the Services provided to the Portfolio.

1.2. Form N-MFP.

1.2.1 Subject to the authorization and direction of the Fund, in accordance with procedures that may be established from time to time between the Fund and State Street, State Street will prepare for review by designated officers of the Fund a monthly report on Form N-MFP and file it on behalf of the Fund as of the last business day of the previous month on or prior to the Form N-MFP Deadline.

1.2.2 In order to prepare Form N-MFP, State Street will aggregate data from its systems, authorized vendors and the Fund. The Fund acknowledges that certain data required in Form N-MFP, if not obtainable from a third-party data source, must be provided by the Fund on behalf of the Portfolio, including the General Information, Items 1-10, Items 19 and 20, Item 32, 34, 37 – 39, 43, 44 and 46 of Form N-MFP. The Fund acknowledges that certain data required in Form N-MFP will be provided by third parties including Items 30, 33 and 34 of Form N-MFP.

1.3 Monthly Portfolio Holdings.

1.3.1 State Street will provide the Fund the following portfolio holdings data required by Rule 2a-7 for each month prior to the Portfolio Holdings Deadline with respect to the Portfolio and each class thereof:

(a) Dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity; and

(b) Dollar weighted average portfolio maturity without reference to exceptions in Rule 2a-7(d) regarding interest rate adjustments.

2. EVIDENCE OF AUTHORITY.

State Street shall be protected in acting upon any instructions, notice, request, consent, certificate or other instrument or paper believed by it to be genuine and to have been properly executed by or on behalf of the Fund. Instructions may be in writing signed by the authorized person or persons or may be by such other means and utilizing such intermediary systems and utilities as may be agreed from time to time by State Street and the person(s) or entity giving such instruction. State Street may act on oral instructions if State Street reasonably believes them to have been given by a person authorized to provide such instructions with respect to the transaction involved; the Fund shall cause all oral instructions to be confirmed in writing.

3. COMPENSATION OF STATE STREET.

State Street shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for the Services and expenses of State Street, as agreed upon from time to time between the Fund and State Street. Fees and expenses relating to the Services will be calculated and become due on a monthly basis.

4. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES; INDEMNIFICATION; WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS.

4.1 State Street shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon advice of counsel of the Fund on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice.

4.2 The Fund acknowledges that the Services shall be used to assist the Portfolio to comply with its obligations under Rule 2a-7. The Fund acknowledges that the Fund and/or its Board of Directors/Trustees shall be responsible for designing appropriate stress testing systems for the Portfolio, including, but not limited to, the stress test applied, the assumptions used in each stress test and the data sources for each stress test, and for determining the appropriate intervals at which stress tests should be conducted. The Fund acknowledges that the Portfolio’s investment advisor(s) shall have the responsibility of assessing the Portfolio’s ability to withstand the events that are reasonably likely to occur within the following year. The Fund agrees that it shall be solely responsible for any decision made or action taken in reliance on the stress testing reports or other data or information included in the Services provided by Xxxxx Xxxxxx.
