FEES
As compensation for the services provided under this Agreement, ING will be entitled to
receive a fee, computed daily and paid quarterly in arrears, at the annual rates set forth below of
the average daily value of the Shares of the Funds owned beneficially by the Plans. For purposes
of this schedule, the average daily value of the Shares of each Fund will be based on the net asset
value reported by RFS or its designee to ING.
5
Each Fund will be obligated to pay that portion of the fee designated by it as representing
transfer agent, recordkeeping, administrative servicing and/or shareholder servicing fees which the
Fund would otherwise pay if Plan Accounts were direct shareholders of the Fund. RFS, or its
designee, will pay any portion of the fee not paid by the Funds. In this regard, ING acknowledges
that RFS’ payments to ING may be funded, in whole or in part, by payments from a Fund under a
plan of distribution adopted by that Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (12b-1 Plan); if this is the case, ING will provide such information to RFS as is
reasonably necessary for it to comply with its obligations under the 12b-1 Plan, including, but not
limited to, obligations to make disclosures to the board(s) of trustees of the Fund. The amount of
the fee attributable to service/recordkeeping/administrative services and to services payable
pursuant to a Fund’s 12b-1 plan are noted in the chart below.
Share Class | Investment | Service | R | K | Institutional |
