         WHEREAS, each Assignor that is comprised of a single series and each series of an Assignor that is comprised of more than one series (each, an "Old Fund") shall be reorganized as a separate, new series of Assignee (each new series of Assignee that corresponds to an Old Fund, a "New Fund"), all such reorganizations to be effective as of the date hereof;

         WHEREAS, in connection with such reorganizations, each Assignor wishes to assign, on its own behalf or on behalf of each of its series, as applicable, its rights and duties under its Custodian Agreement to Assignee, on behalf of its corresponding New Fund(s), and Assignee, on behalf of its respective corresponding New Funds, wishes to succeed to the rights and assume the duties of each Assignor or each of such Assignor's series, as applicable, under such Assignor's Custodian Agreement, effective as of the date of hereof;

         WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 9.09 of each Custodian Agreement, Custodian is willing to consent to such assignment of each Assignor's rights and delegation of each Assignor's duties under its Custodian Agreement to Assignee.

         WHEREAS, in connection with the assignments from each Assignor to Assignee, the parties wish to amend the terms of each Custodian Agreement so that, upon the effectiveness of this Assignment Agreement, Assignee shall, on behalf of and with respect to each New Fund, succeed to the rights and responsibilities of the corresponding Old Fund.

Further, Assignee, acting on behalf of the applicable New Fund, hereby accepts the assignment of such Assignor's Custodian Agreement as to the corresponding Old Fund and the assignment of all the rights, title and interest, powers, privileges and remedies, as well as all duties, liabilities and obligations, of such Assignor under its Custodian Agreement as to the corresponding Old Fund.
	2.	Consent by Custodian. As required by Section 9.09 of each Custodian Agreement, Custodian consents to the assignment of the Custodian Agreements and the resulting assignment of rights and duties as set forth in this Assignment Agreement. Further, Custodian releases each Assignor from all further obligations and liabilities arising under its Custodian Agreement and acknowledges that each Assignor intends to liquidate and dissolve following the reorganizations described above.
	3.	Redocumentation.
