The State Street Money Market Portfolio will, however, in no way be liable for any errors or omissions in such documents, whether or not it makes any objection thereto, except to the extent such errors or omissions result from information provided in writing by the State Street Money Market Portfolio or from information accurately derived from the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s N-1A that has been specifically provided to the State Street Money Market Portfolio for review and comment. The Income Fund will not make any other written or oral representations about the State Street Money Market Portfolio other than those included in the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s N-1A without the prior written consent of the Master Trust.

- 6 -

claims, demands, damages, liabilities and expenses (including the reasonable cost of investigating and defending against any claims therefor and any counsel fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith) (each, a “Liability” and collectively, the “Liabilities”) , joint or several, which

(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any registration statement, any prospectus, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any advertisement or sales literature, or any other document or publication filed, created, or published or otherwise disseminated by the Income Fund (each, an “Income Fund Document”), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the Income Fund will not be liable in any such case to the extent that such Liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission in or from any Income Fund Document in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Income Fund by the State Street Money Market Portfolio specifically for use therein (for this purpose, information of any kind contained in any State Street Money Market Portfolio SEC Filings, not included therein in reliance on information provided by or on behalf of the Income Fund for inclusion therein, being deemed to have been so furnished to the Income Fund);

(ii) result from the failure of any representation or warranty made by AARP Funds on behalf of the Income Fund to be accurate when made or the failure of AARP Funds or the Income Fund to perform any covenant contained herein or to otherwise comply with the terms of this Agreement; or

(iii) arise out of any unlawful or negligent act of AARP Funds or the Income Fund or any Trustee, officer, employee or agent of AARP Funds or the Income Fund, whether such act was committed against AARP Funds, Income Fund, Master Trust, State Street Money Market Portfolio or any third party;

provided, however, that in no case shall the Income Fund be liable with respect to any claim made against any State Street Money Market Portfolio Covered Person unless the party shall have notified the Income Fund in writing of the nature of the claim within a reasonable time after the summons, other first legal process or formal or informal initiation of a regulatory investigation or proceeding shall have been served upon or provided to a party. Failure to notify the Income Fund of such claim shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to any party otherwise than on account of the indemnification contained in this Paragraph.

(b) The Income Fund will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but, if the Income Fund elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Income Fund and reasonably acceptable to the State Street Money Market Portfolio. In the event the Income Fund elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, each State Street Money Market Portfolio Covered Person and any other defendant or defendants may retain additional counsel, but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (A) the Income Fund shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel or

The indemnities set forth in paragraph (a) will be in addition to any liability that the Income Fund might otherwise have to a State Street Money Market Portfolio Covered Person.

3.3 The Master Trust covenants on behalf of the State Street Money Market Portfolio that:

(a) The State Street Money Market Portfolio will use its best efforts to qualify to be taxable as a partnership under the Code for all periods during which this Agreement is in effect, except to the extent that the failure to so qualify is a result of any action or omission of the Income Fund.

(b) The Master Trust will notify AARP Funds, as soon as reasonably practicable, of the discovery of any material failure to comply with the terms of Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act or of any decision to cease to be a money market fund for purposes of Rule 2a-7.

(c) Conditional upon the Income Fund complying with the terms of this Agreement, and except as otherwise may be limited by the terms of this Agreement, the Master Trust shall permit the Income Fund to make additional Investments in the State Street Money Market Portfolio on each business day on which shares of the Income Fund are sold to the public, provided, however, that the Master Trust may refuse to permit the Income Fund to make additional Investments in the State Street Money Market Portfolio on any day on which (i) the State Street Money Market Portfolio has refused to permit all other investors in the State Street Money Market Portfolio to make additional Investments in the State Street Money Market Portfolio or (ii) the Trustees of the Master Trust have reasonably determined that permitting additional investments by the Income Fund in the State Street Money Market Portfolio would constitute a breach of their fiduciary duty to the State Street Money Market Portfolio.

(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s N-1A or in any advertising or sales literature of the Income Fund to the extent resulting from information provided by the Master Trust specifically for inclusion in the Income Fund’s advertising or sales literature and which is accurately included by the Income Fund in the Income Fund’s advertising or sales literature, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state in the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s N-1A or in any advertising or sales literature of the Income Fund to the extent resulting from information provided by the Master Trust specifically for inclusion in the Income Fund’s advertising or sales literature and which is accurately included by the Income Fund therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided, however, that the State Street Money Market Portfolio will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such Liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or omission in or from the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s N-1A in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the State Street Money Market Portfolio by the Income Fund specifically for use therein (for this purpose, information of any kind contained in any Income Fund SEC Filings, not included therein in reliance on information provided by or on behalf of the State Street Money Market Portfolio for inclusion therein, being deemed to have been so furnished to the State Street Money Market Portfolio);

provided, however, that in no case shall the State Street Money Market Portfolio be liable with respect to any claim made against any Income Fund Covered Person unless the party shall have

- 9 -

notified the State Street Money Market Portfolio in writing of the nature of the claim within a reasonable time after the summons, other first legal process or formal or informal initiation of a regulatory investigation or proceeding shall have been served upon or provided to a Income Fund Covered Person.

(b) The State Street Money Market Portfolio will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any such liability, but, if the State Street Money Market Portfolio elects to assume the defense, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the State Street Money Market Portfolio and reasonably acceptable to the Income Fund. In the event that the State Street Money Market Portfolio elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain such counsel, each Income Fund Covered Person and any other defendant or defendants may retain additional counsel, but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (A) the State Street Money Market Portfolio shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel or (B) the parties to such suit include any Income Fund Covered Person and the State Street Money Market Portfolio, and any such Income Fund Covered Person has been advised by counsel that one or more legal defenses may be available to it that may not be available to the State Street Money Market Portfolio, in which case the State Street Money Market Portfolio shall not be entitled to assume the defense of such suit notwithstanding its obligation to bear the fees and expenses of such counsel. The State Street Money Market Portfolio shall not be liable to indemnify any Income Fund Covered Person for any settlement of any claim affected without the State Street Money Market Portfolio’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

3.5 Allocation of Losses.

(a) If the indemnification provided for in Section 3.2 or Section 3.4 is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless a State Street Money Market Portfolio Covered Person or Income Fund Covered Person (“Covered Person”) in respect of any losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities, or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such any losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities, or expenses incurred by such Covered Person in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Income Fund and the State Street Money Market Portfolio in connection with the statements or omissions or other action or failure to act which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

(b) In the case of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, the relative fault of the Income Fund and the State Street Money Market Portfolio shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission related to information supplied by the Income Fund or the State Street Money Market

- 10 -

Portfolio and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(c) The Income Fund and the State Street Money Market Portfolio agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 3.5 were determined by any method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 3.5. The aggregate amount of losses, claims, demands, damages, liabilities, and expenses incurred by a Covered Person and referred to above in this Section 3.5 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Covered Person in investigating, preparing, or defending against any litigation or any investigation or proceeding or any such claims and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith.
