(b) In performing hereunder, BNYM shall provide, at its expense, office space, facilities, equipment and personnel.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Fund’s consent shall be required for any such delegation to any other subsidiary of The Bank of New York Company, Inc. (hereinafter a “BNYM Affiliate”) notwithstanding the domicile of such BNYM Affiliate, and BNYM shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising out of, or in connection with, the actions or omissions to act of any delegee or agent utilized hereunder so long as BNYM acts in good faith and without negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such delegee or agent, provided that BNYM shall be liable for the acts or omissions of any BNYM Affiliate to the same extent it would be liable under the terms hereof had it committed such act or omission and not delegated the same, and BNYM shall notify each affected Fund upon any such delegation to a BNYM Affiliate.

In connection with its duties hereunder, BNYM shall be entitled reasonably to rely, and shall be held harmless by each Fund when acting in reliance, upon the instructions, documents or advice relating to a Fund provided to BNYM by any of the aforementioned persons. BNYM shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense resulting from or arising out of the failure of a Fund to cause any information, documents or advice to be provided to BNYM as provided herein, provided BNYM acts without negligence or willful misconduct. All fees or costs charged by such persons shall be borne by the relevant Fund.

(f) Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict BNYM, any affiliate or BNYM Affiliate or any officer or employee thereof from acting for or with any third parties and providing services similar or identical to some or all of the services provided hereunder.

(g) Each Fund shall furnish BNYM with any and all instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation deemed necessary by BNYM in the performance of its duties hereunder, including, without limitation, the amounts or written formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual of Fund liabilities and expenses. BNYM shall not be required to include as Fund liabilities and expenses, nor as a reduction of net asset value, any accrual for any federal, state, or foreign income taxes unless the Fund shall have specified to BNYM the precise amount of the same to be included in liabilities and expenses or used to reduce net asset value. Each Fund shall also furnish BNYM with bid, offer, or market values of assets if BNYM notifies such Fund that same are not available to BNYM from a security pricing or similar service utilized, or subscribed to, by BNYM which BNYM in its judgment deems reliable at the time such information is required for calculations hereunder. At any time and from time to time, the Fund also may furnish BNYM with bid, offer, or market values of assets and instruct BNYM to use such information in its calculations hereunder. BNYM shall at no time be required or obligated to commence or maintain any utilization of, or subscriptions to, any pricing or similar service. In no event shall BNYM be required to determine, or have any obligations with respect to, whether a market price represents any fair or true value, nor to adjust any price to reflect any events or announcements, including, without limitation, those with respect to the issuer thereof, it being agreed that all such determinations

- 6 -

and considerations shall be solely for the Fund.

(h) BNYM may apply to an officer of the Managing Owner for written instructions with respect to any matter arising in connection with BNYM’s performance hereunder for such Fund, and BNYM shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in good faith in accordance with such instructions. Such application for instructions may, at the option of BNYM, set forth in writing any action proposed to be taken or omitted to be taken by BNYM with respect to its duties or obligations under this Agreement and the date on and/or after which such action shall be taken, and BNYM shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with a proposal included in any such application on or after the date specified therein unless, prior to taking or omitting to take any such action, BNYM has received written instructions in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

(i) BNYM may consult with counsel to a Fund or its own counsel and shall be fully protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith after consultation with the Fund in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, but to the extent expressly otherwise provided in Schedules I or II attached hereto, BNYM shall have no duty or obligation to with respect to, including, without limitation, any duty or obligation to determine, or advise or notify a Fund of: (i) the taxable nature of any distribution or amount received or deemed received by, or payable to, such Fund, (ii) the taxable nature or effect on such Fund or its shareholders of any corporate actions, class actions, tax reclaims, tax refunds or similar events, (iii) the taxable nature or taxable amount of any distribution or other amount paid, payable or deemed paid, by such Fund to its shareholders; or (iv) the effect under any federal, state, foreign, or other applicable income tax laws of such Fund making or not making any distribution or other payment, or any election with respect thereto.

(k) BNYM, in performing the services required of it under the terms of this Agreement, shall be entitled reasonably to rely fully on the accuracy and validity of any and all instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation furnished to it by a Fund and shall have no duty or obligation to review the accuracy, validity or propriety of such instructions, explanations, information, specifications or documentation, including, without

- 7 -

limitation, evaluations of assets; the amounts or formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual of a Fund’s liabilities and expenses; the amounts receivable and the amounts payable on the sale or purchase of assets; and amounts receivable or amounts payable for the sale or redemption of Shares effected by or on behalf of a Fund. In the event BNYM’s computations hereunder rely, in whole or in part, upon information, including, without limitation, bid, offer or market values of assets, or accruals of interest or earnings thereon, from a pricing or similar service utilized, or subscribed to, by BNYM which BNYM in its judgment deems reliable, or from a broker-dealer selected by BNYM, BNYM shall not be responsible for, under any duty to inquire into, or deemed to make any assurances with respect to, the accuracy or completeness of such information. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, BNYM shall not be required to inquire into any valuation of other assets by a Fund or any third party described in this sub-section (k) even though BNYM in performing services similar to the services provided pursuant to this Agreement for others may receive different valuations of the same or different assets.

(l) BNYM, in performing the services required of it under the terms of this Agreement, shall not be responsible for determining whether any interest accruable to a Fund is or will be actually paid, but will accrue such interest until otherwise instructed by the Fund.

(m) Subject to the provisions of this sub-section (m), BNYM shall compute the net asset value per Share of each Fund and shall value the assets held by such Fund at such times and dates and in the manner specified in the then currently effective Prospectus of such Fund, except that notwithstanding any language in the Prospectus, in no event shall BNYM be required to determine, or have any obligations with respect to, whether a market price represents any fair or true value, nor to adjust any price to reflect any events or announcements, including, without limitation, those with respect to the issuer thereof, it being agreed that all such determinations and considerations shall be solely for each Fund. To the extent valuation of assets or computation of a Fund’s net asset value as specified in the Fund’s then currently effective Prospectus is at any time inconsistent with any applicable laws or regulations, such Fund shall immediately so notify BNYM in writing and thereafter shall either furnish BNYM at all appropriate times with the values of such assets and net asset value, or subject to the prior approval of BNYM, instruct BNYM in writing to value assets and compute net asset value in a manner which such Fund then represents in writing to be consistent with all applicable laws and

- 8 -

regulations. Such Fund may also from time to time, subject to the prior approval of BNYM, instruct BNYM in writing to compute the value of the assets or net asset value in a manner other than as specified in this sub-section (m). By giving such instruction, such Fund shall be deemed to have represented that such instruction is consistent with all applicable laws and regulations and its then currently effective Prospectus. Each Fund shall have sole responsibility for determining the method of valuation of assets and the method of computing net asset value.

(n) In providing the services hereunder BNYM is authorized to utilize any legal, tax or other regulatory, compliance, or monitoring services, in each case not a BNYM Affiliate, reasonably selected and retained by BNYM as a reliable provider of information. Each Fund agrees that BNYM shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense incurred as a result of errors or omissions of any vendor utilized by BNYM pursuant to this subsection 5(n), and that no such vendor shall be an agent or delegee of BNYM.

(o) BNYM shall have no duties or responsibilities whatsoever except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement and Schedules I and II attached hereto, and no covenant or obligation shall be implied against BNYM in connection with this Agreement.

6. Allocation of Expenses.

Except as otherwise provided herein, all costs and expenses arising or incurred in connection with the performance of this Agreement shall be paid by each Fund, including but not limited to, organizational costs and costs of maintaining its existence, taxes, interest, brokerage fees and commissions, insurance premiums, compensation and expenses of such Fund’s shareholders, officers or employees, legal, accounting and audit expenses, management, advisory, sub-advisory, administration and shareholder servicing fees, charges of custodians, transfer and dividend disbursing agents, expenses (including clerical expenses) incident to the issuance, redemption or repurchase of Shares, fees and expenses incident to the registration or qualification under federal, state or other applicable securities laws of each Fund or its Shares, costs (including printing and mailing costs) of preparing and distributing any materials, reports, notices and proxy material to the Fund’s shareholders, all expenses incidental to holding meetings of the Fund’s

- 9 -

shareholders, and extraordinary expenses as may arise, including litigation affecting the Fund and legal obligations relating thereto for which the Fund may have to indemnify its shareholders, or officers.

7. Standard of Care; Indemnification.

(a) BNYM shall not be liable for any costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims, including reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees (collectively, “Losses”), incurred by or asserted against a Fund, except those Losses arising out of BNYM’s own negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall BNYM be liable to a Fund or any third party for special, indirect or consequential damages, or lost profits or loss of business, arising under or in connection with this Agreement, even if previously informed of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the form of action, nor shall BNYM be liable (i) for acting in accordance with any Certificate or Oral Instructions actually received by BNYM and reasonably believed by BNYM to be given by an Authorized Person; (ii) for acting in accordance with Instructions; (iii) for presuming that all instructions that are Instructions and are not contained in a Certificate or Oral Instructions are given only by person(s) duly authorized; (iv) for relying upon prices provided by any third party pricing service or broker-dealer reasonably believed by BNYM to be reliable; (v) subject to Section 11 hereof, for any Losses due to forces beyond the control of BNYM, including without limitation strikes, work stoppages, acts of war or terrorism, insurrection, revolution, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, or interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; (vi) for any Losses arising from the applicability of any law or regulation now or hereafter in effect; or (vii) for any Losses, resulting from, arising out of, or in connection with its performance hereunder, including its actions or omissions, the incompleteness or inaccuracy of any specifications or other information furnished by or on behalf of a Fund, or for delays caused by circumstances beyond BNYM’s reasonable control, unless such Loss arises out of the negligence or willful misconduct of BNYM.

(b) Each Fund shall indemnify and hold harmless BNYM from and against any and all costs, expenses, damages, liabilities and claims (including claims asserted by such Fund), and reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees relating thereto, which are sustained or

- 10 -

incurred or which may be asserted against BNYM, by reason of or as a result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by BNYM in good faith hereunder or in reliance upon (i) any law, act, regulation or interpretation of the same, issued by a court or governmental agency, (ii) a Fund’s Prospectus, (iii) any instructions of an officer of the Managing Owner, or (iv) any opinion of legal counsel for a Fund or BNYM, or arising out of transactions or other activities of a Fund which occurred prior to the commencement of this Agreement; provided, that a Fund shall not indemnify BNYM for costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims for which BNYM is liable under preceding sub-section 7(a). This indemnity shall be a continuing obligation of each Fund, its successors and assigns, notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Fund shall indemnify BNYM against and save BNYM harmless from any loss, damage or expense, including reasonable counsel fees and other costs and expenses of a defense against any claim or liability, arising from any one or more of the following:

(iii) Any action taken or omitted to be taken by BNYM in good faith after consultation with the Fund in accordance with the advice or opinion of counsel for such Fund or its own counsel;

(iv) Any improper use by such Fund or its agents of any valuations or computations supplied by BNYM pursuant to this Agreement;

(v) The method of valuation of the assets and the method of computing such Fund’s net asset value; or

(vi) Any valuations of assets or net asset value provided by such Fund.

8. Limitation of Liability.

(a) Fund Liability. BNYM agrees and consents (the “Consent”) to look solely to the assets (the “Fund Assets”) of the particular Fund in controversy for payment in respect of any claim against or obligation of such Fund. The Fund Assets include only those funds and other assets that are paid, held or distributed to the Trust on account of and for the benefit of that particular Fund, including, without limitation, funds delivered to the Trust for the purchase of Shares in such Fund. In furtherance of the Consent, BNYM agrees that any debts, liabilities, obligations, indebtedness, expenses and claims of any nature and of all kinds and descriptions (collectively, “Claims”) against a Fund incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing shall be subject to the following limitations:

(i) The Claims of BNYM shall only be asserted and enforceable against a particular Fund and the Fund Assets of such Fund and such Claims shall not be asserted or enforceable for any reason whatsoever against any other Fund, the Trust generally or any of their respective assets;

(ii) if the Claims of BNYM against a Fund or the Trust are secured in whole or in part, BNYM hereby waives (under Section 1111(b) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. § 1111(b)) any right to have any deficiency Claims (which deficiency Claims may arise in the event such security is inadequate to satisfy such Claims) treated as unsecured Claims against the Trust or any Fund (other than the Fund against which the Claim is made), as the case may be; and

(iii) the foregoing Consent shall apply at all times notwithstanding that the Claims are satisfied and notwithstanding that the agreements in respect of such Claims are terminated, rescinded or canceled.

- 12 -

(b) It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the obligations of each Fund hereunder shall not be binding upon any shareholder, Trustee, officer, employee or agent of such Fund, personally. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Fund and neither such authorization nor such execution and delivery shall be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of them personally.

9. Compensation and Reimbursements.

For the services provided hereunder, each Fund agrees to pay BNYM such compensation as is mutually agreed from time to time and such out-of-pocket expenses (e.g., telecommunication charges, postage and delivery charges, record retention costs, reproduction charges and transportation and lodging costs) as are incurred by BNYM in performing its duties hereunder. Except as hereinafter set forth, compensation shall be calculated and accrued daily and paid monthly. Each Fund authorizes BNYM to debit such Fund’s custody account for all amounts due and payable hereunder. BNYM shall deliver to each Fund invoices for services rendered after debiting such Fund’s custody account with an indication that payment has been made. Upon termination of this Agreement before the end of any month, the compensation for such part of a month shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full monthly period and shall be payable upon the effective date of termination of this Agreement. For the purpose of determining compensation payable to BNYM, each Fund’s net asset value shall be computed at the times and in the manner specified in the Fund’s Prospectus.

10. Term of Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall continue until terminated by either BNYM giving to a Fund, or a Fund giving to BNYM, a notice in writing specifying the date of such termination, which date shall be not less than 90 days after the date of the giving of such notice. Upon termination hereof, the affected Fund(s) shall pay to BNYM such compensation as may be due as of the date of such termination, and shall reimburse BNYM for any disbursements and expenses made or incurred by BNYM and payable or reimbursable hereunder.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, BNYM may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days prior written notice to a Fund if such Fund shall terminate its custody agreement with BNYM, or fail to perform its obligations hereunder in a material respect.

- 13 -

11. Authorized Persons.

Attached hereto as Exhibit B are lists of persons duly authorized by each Fund to execute this Agreement and give any written or oral instructions, or written or oral specifications, by or on behalf of a Fund. From time to time a Fund may deliver a new Exhibit B to add or delete any person and BNYM shall be entitled to rely on the last Exhibit B actually received by BNYM.

12. Amendment.

This Agreement may not be amended or modified in any manner except by a written agreement executed by BNYM and each Fund to be bound thereby, and authorized or approved by each Fund to be bound thereby.

13. Assignment.

This Agreement shall extend to and shall be binding upon the parties hereto, and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not be assignable by the Fund without the written consent of BNYM, or by BNYM without the written consent of the Fund.

14. Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction.

This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict of laws principles thereof. Each Fund hereby consents to the jurisdiction of a state or federal court situated in New York City, New York in connection with any dispute arising hereunder, and waives to the fullest extent permitted by law its right to a trial by jury. To the extent that in any jurisdiction a Fund may now or hereafter be entitled to claim, for itself or its assets, immunity from suit, execution, attachment (before or after judgment) or other legal process, each Fund irrevocably agrees not to claim, and it hereby waives, such immunity.

15. Severability.

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining

- 14 -

provisions or obligations shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and if any provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstances, it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. Each Fund is entering this Agreement on its own account and no action by one Fund shall affect this Agreement with any other Fund.

16. No Waiver.

Each and every right granted to BNYM hereunder or under any other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed it by law or equity, shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of BNYM to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by BNYM of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.
