SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED SERVICES AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT, amended and restated as of December 1, 2001, is entered into between each Fund listed on Schedule 1, as may be amended from time to time, severally and not jointly, and Federated Shareholder Services Company, ("FSSC"). Unless otherwise defined herein, Section 10 sets forth the definition of capitalized terms used in this Agreement.
WHEREAS, Schedule 1 to this Agreement sets forth the classes of Shares for which the Funds will compensate persons who agree to provide services to Shareholders and assist in the maintenance of Shareholder accounts (“Services”);
WHEREAS, FSSC and certain of the Funds entered into a Shareholder Services Agreement dated March 1, 1994 and amended September 1, 1995, (the “Prior Agreement”) which provided for FSSC to enter into agreements for Services with third parties (“Third-Party Agreements”) and to utilize fees received under the Prior Agreement to compensate third parties pursuant to such Third-Party Agreements;
WHEREAS, it is contemplated that hereafter, the Funds will compensate third-parties for Services directly, and that FSSC will no longer enter into Third-Party Agreements;
WHEREAS, FSSC will continue to compensate third parties pursuant to any Third-Party Agreements and the Funds will continue to make payments to FSSC to fund those obligations; and
WHEREAS, FSSC will also receive fees for Services it provides to Shareholders under this Agreement.
NOW THEREFORE, the parties agree to amend and restate the Agreement as follows:
SECTION | 1. Agreement to Provide Services |
(a) Services. FSSC agrees to provide Services for Shareholders of the Funds that have fully-disclosed accounts in the Funds for which either (i) Federated Securities Corp. or any other affiliate of FSSC is the dealer of record; or (ii) for which the dealer of record does not provide Services (collectively, the “FSSC Accounts”). FSSC shall also provide Services or cause Services to be provided to Shareholders whose accounts are subject to Third-Party Agreements. Services shall include, but are not limited to, telephone, mail or electronic communications with Shareholders.
(b) Delivery of Disclosure Documents. Upon request by a customer that is a Shareholder of the Funds, FSSC will send a copy of the current Prospectus (and, if expressly requested, Statement of Additional Information), annual report or semi-annual report for any Fund (“Disclosure Documents”) to the customer within three (3) business days of such request.
(i) | The Funds will furnish to FSSC at the Funds’ own expense such number of copies of the then-current Disclosure Documents as FSSC requests to satisfy its obligations under this paragraph. |
(ii) | FSSC covenants to the Funds that it will not make any representations concerning any Shares other than those contained in the Disclosure Documents of the applicable Fund. |
(iii) | The parties may agree from time to time to set appropriate security procedures and to perform electronically certain of their obligations under this Agreement, including without limitation the delivery of requested Disclosure Documents. |
(c) FSSC shall not have any obligation to pay the cost of producing or delivering Disclosure Documents or any other costs incurred by the Funds in connection with the Services provided hereunder.
SECTION | 2. Service Fees Payable to FSSC |
(a) During the term of this Agreement, FSSC will be entitled to receive from each Fund as full compensation for Services rendered hereunder a fee calculated daily at an annual rate, as set forth Schedule 1 to this Agreement, of up to 0.25% of average net assets held in FSSC Accounts of each Fund. Service fees paid by the Funds are in addition to other fees paid by the Funds such as those paid pursuant to an Agreement for Fund Accounting Services, Administrative Services, Transfer Agency Services and Custody Services Procurement and fees paid pursuant to each Fund’s Distributor’s Contract.
(b) For so long as any Third-Party Agreement remains in effect, FSSC shall be entitled to receive fees from the Funds calculated daily at an annual rate, as set forth in Schedule 1 to this Agreement, of up to 0.25% on the average net assets held in accounts of each Fund for which Services are provided by such third-parties which amount shall be paid by FSSC in accordance with such Third-Party Agreements.
(c) The Funds shall pay service fees to FSSC in accordance with their regular payment schedules. For the payment period in which this Agreement becomes effective or terminates with respect to any Fund, there shall be an appropriate proration of the fee on the basis of the number of days that this Agreement is in effect with respect to such Fund during the period.
SECTION | 3. Agreements with Other Service Providers |
Each Fund hereby appoints FSSC as the Fund’s agent to enter into agreements with financial intermediaries that are not registered as broker/dealers under the 1934 Act (each an “Unregistered Intermediary”) to provide Services to their customers that are Shareholders of the Fund. Each Fund agrees to pay Service Fees at an annual rate as set forth in Schedule 1 to this Agreement of up to 0.25% of the average net assets held in Fund accounts for which an Unregistered Intermediary has agreed to provide Services. Any such accounts shall not be treated as FSSC Accounts for purposes of this Agreement.
SECTION | 4. Representations |
(a) Each party represents and warrants to the other party that:
(i) | Status. It is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation and, if relevant under such laws, in good standing. |
(ii) | Powers. It has the power to execute this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement to which it is a party, to deliver this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement that it is required by this Agreement to deliver and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and has taken all necessary action to authorize such execution, delivery and performance. |
(iii) | No Violation or Conflict. Such execution, delivery and performance do not violate or conflict with any law applicable to it, any provision of its constitutional documents, any order or judgment of any court or other agency of government applicable to it or any contractual restriction binding on or affecting it. |
(iv) | Obligations Binding. Its obligations under this Agreement constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to equitable principles of general application regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or law). |
(v) | Compliance with Laws. It will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and orders to which it may be subject if failure to so comply would materially impair its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement. |
SECTION | 5. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability |
(a) In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties hereunder on the part of FSSC and its trustees, officers, employees, agents and representatives, the Funds agree to indemnify FSSC and its trustees, officers, employees, agents and representatives against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees), related to or otherwise connected with (i) any breach by the Funds of any provision of this Agreement; or (ii) any action by a Fund’s Shareholder against FSSC.
(b) FSSC shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. In no event shall FSSC be liable for indirect or consequential damages.
(c) Any person, even though also an officer, trustee, partner, employee or agent of FSSC, who may be or become an officer, employee or agent of any Fund or a member of a Fund's Board, shall be deemed, when rendering services to such Fund or acting on any business of such Fund (other than services or business in connection with the duties of FSSC hereunder) to be rendering such services to or acting solely for such Fund and not as an officer, trustee, partner, employee or agent or one under the control or direction of FSSC even though paid by FSSC.
(d) FSSC is expressly put on notice of the limitation of liability as set forth in the Declaration of Trust of each Fund that is a Massachusetts business trust and agrees that the obligations assumed by each such Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited in any case to such Fund and its assets and that FSSC shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligations from the Shareholders of such Fund, the Trustees, Officers, Employees or Agents of such Fund, or any of them.
(e) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(i) | The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Regulation S-P at 17 CFR Part 248 to protect the privacy of individuals who obtain a financial product or service for personal, family or household use; |
(ii) | Regulation S-P permits financial institutions, such as the Funds, to disclose “nonpublic personal information” (“NPI”) of its “customers” and “consumers” (as those terms are therein defined in Regulation S-P) to affiliated and nonaffiliated third parties of the Funds, without giving such customers and consumers the ability to opt out of such disclosure, for the limited purposes of processing and servicing transactions (17 CFR § 248.14); for specified law enforcement and miscellaneous purposes (17 CFR § 248.15); and to service providers or in connection with joint marketing arrangements (17 CFR § 248.13); and |
(iii) | Regulation S-P provides that the right of a customer and consumer to opt out of having his or her NPI disclosed pursuant to 17 CFR § 248.7 and 17 CFR § 248.10 does not apply when the NPI is disclosed to service providers or in connection with joint marketing arrangements, provided the Fund and third party enter into a contractual agreement that prohibits the third party from disclosing or using the information other than to carry out the purposes for which the Fund disclosed the information (17 CFR § 248.13). |
(b) The parties agree that the Funds may disclose Shareholder NPI to FSSC as agent of the Funds and solely in furtherance of fulfilling FSSC’s contractual obligations under the Agreement in the ordinary course of business to support the Funds and their Shareholders.
(c) FSSC hereby agrees to be bound to use and redisclose such NPI only for the limited purpose of fulfilling its duties and obligations under the Agreement, for law enforcement and miscellaneous purposes as permitted in 17 CFR §248.15, or in connection with joint marketing arrangements that the Funds may establish with FSSC in accordance with the limited exception set forth in 17 CFR 248.13.
(d) FSSC represents and warrants that, in accordance with 17 CFR § 248.30, it has implemented, and will continue to carry out for the term of the Agreement, policies and procedures reasonably designed to:

(ii) | Protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of Fund customer records and NPI; and |
(iii) | Protect against unauthorized access or use of such Fund customer records or NPI that could result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any Fund customer. |
(e) FSSC may redisclose Section 248.13 NPI only to: (a) the Funds and affiliated persons of the Funds (“Fund Affiliates”); (b) affiliated persons of FSSC (“Service Provider Affiliates”) (which in turn may disclose or use the information only to the extent permitted under the original receipt); (c) a third party not affiliated with FSSC or the Funds (“Nonaffiliated Third Party”) under the service and processing (§248.14) or miscellaneous (§248.15) exceptions, but only in the ordinary course of business to carry out the activity covered by the exception under which FSSC received the information in the first instance; and (d) a Nonaffiliated Third Party under the service provider and joint marketing exception (§248.13), provided FSSC enters into a written contract with the Nonaffiliated Third Party that prohibits the Nonaffiliated Third Party from disclosing or using the information other than to carry out the purposes for which the Funds disclosed the information in the first instance.
(f) FSSC may redisclose Section 248.14 NPI and Section 248.15 NPI to: (a) the Funds and Fund Affiliates; (b) Service Provider Affiliates (which in turn may disclose the information to the same extent permitted under the original receipt); and (c) a Nonaffiliated Third Party to whom the Funds might lawfully have disclosed NPI directly.
(g) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of the Agreement.
