5. Certain Duties of the Funds.

(a) The Funds shall be solely responsible for accurately and timely supplying BNYM with complete financial and other information relating to the Funds in order for BNYM to provide the services set forth on Schedule I.

(b) Each Fund acknowledges that BNYM is not a public accounting or auditing firm, is not a fiduciary of a public accounting or auditing firm, and does not provide public accounting or auditing services or advice and will not be making any tax filings or doing any tax reporting on its behalf, other than those specifically agreed to hereunder.

Each Fund agrees that it or its designated agents are, and will continue to be, responsible for compliance with all withholding and reporting required by the IRC and Regulations.

In connection with its duties hereunder, BNYM shall be entitled to rely, and shall be held harmless by the Funds when acting in good faith in reliance upon, such information or documents provided to BNYM by any of the aforementioned persons for a specified purpose and used by BNYM for such purpose. BNYM shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense to the extent that such loss, damage or expense results from or arises out of the failure of the Funds to cause any information or documents to be provided to BNYM as provided herein.

(f) The Funds shall promptly notify BNYM in writing of any and all legal proceedings or securities investigations (other than routine regulatory examinations or audits) filed or commenced against any Fund, the Investment Advisor, the Sponsor or the Board which are material to this Agreement.

6. Duties and Obligations of BNYM.

(a) Subject to the direction and control of the Funds and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Schedule I, BNYM shall provide to the Funds the services set forth in Schedule I.

(b) Except to the extent otherwise indicated on Schedule I, BNYM shall not provide any services relating to the management, investment advisory or sub-advisory functions of the Funds, distribution of Shares of any Fund, maintenance of any Fund’s financial records or other services normally performed by the Funds’ respective counsel or independent auditors.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the services of BNYM are not, nor shall they be construed as constituting, legal advice or the provision of legal services for or on behalf of any Fund or any other person. Neither this Agreement nor the provision of services under this Agreement establishes or is intended to establish an attorney-client relationship between any Fund and BNYM.

(d) Upon receipt of the Funds’ prior written consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), BNYM may delegate any of its duties and obligations hereunder to any delegee or agent whenever and on such terms and conditions as it deems necessary or appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Funds’ consent shall not be required for any such delegation to any BNYM Affiliate notwithstanding the domicile of such BNYM Affiliate, but BNYM shall provide thirty (30) days’ written notice to the Funds prior to any such delegation. BNYM shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense incurred as a result of errors or omissions of any permitted delegee or agent; provided, that BNYM shall have selected such delegee or agent with reasonable care and without bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct; provided, further, 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 to such BNYM Affiliate. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, BNYM may subcontract with, hire, engage or otherwise outsource to any BNYM Affiliate with respect to the performance of any one or more of the functions, services, duties or obligations of BNYM under this Agreement (“Outsourcing”) but any such Outsourcing by BNYM shall not relieve BNYM of any of its obligations hereunder and 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 acts or omissions. For the avoidance of doubt, such Outsourcing by BNYM to a BNYM Affiliate shall not be considered a delegation under this Agreement.

(e) BNYM shall, as agent for each Fund, maintain and keep current the books, accounts and other documents, if any, listed in Schedule I, and such other books and records as BNYM or the Funds are required to maintain pursuant to Rule 31a-1 of the 1940 Act in connection with the services provided hereunder. Such books and records shall be prepared and maintained as required by the 1940 Act. Such books, accounts and other documents shall be made available upon reasonable request for inspection by officers, employees and auditors of the Funds or the Investment Advisor during BNYM’s normal business hours and electronic access to such books, accounts and other documents which are made available by BNYM to the Funds in accordance with Appendix I hereto. To the extent permitted by and in compliance with applicable requirements of any laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Funds, or BNYM, any such books or records may be maintained in the form of electronic media and stored on any magnetic disk or tape or similar recording method. Except as otherwise authorized by the Funds or their agents, all such records shall be preserved by BNYM for a period of at least six (6) years (or longer period of time as may be required by applicable law), unless delivered to a duly appointed successor or to the Funds. In the event a Fund utilizes the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering services described herein, BNYM will maintain records relating to this service as follows: (i) the shorter of (a) at least six (6) years from the date the Shareholder liquidates its investment in the Fund, or (b) such time as the Fund engages a successor administrator in lieu of BNYM with a corresponding transfer of such records by BNYM; or (ii) in the case of a liquidation of the Fund, the shorter of (a) for at least five (5) years from the date a Fund liquidates or (b) until such records are transferred by BNYM to the Funds’ appointed liquidator or another designated Fund agent; provided, however, that such records will be maintained for any period required by applicable law unless transferred as provided in (i)(b) or (ii)(b) above.

(f) All records maintained and preserved by BNYM pursuant to this Agreement shall be and remain the property of the Funds and shall be surrendered to the Funds promptly upon request in the form in which such records have been maintained and preserved. Upon reasonable request of the Funds, BNYM shall provide in hard copy or electronic format any records included in any such delivery which are maintained by BNYM in the form of electronic media and stored on any magnetic disk or tape or similar recording method, and the Funds shall reimburse BNYM for its reasonable expenses incurred in providing such records.

(g) The Funds shall furnish BNYM with any and all Instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation reasonably deemed necessary by BNYM in the performance of its duties hereunder, including the amounts or written formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual of the Funds’ liabilities and expenses. BNYM shall not be required to include as the Funds’ liabilities and expenses, nor as a reduction of Net Assets, any accrual for any income taxes unless the Funds shall have specified to BNYM the precise amount of the same to be included in liabilities and expenses or used to reduce Net Assets. BNYM shall endeavor to determine the value of securities owned by the Funds in the manner described in the Offering Materials. At any time and from time to time, the Funds may, if consistent with and to the extent permitted by the Offering Materials, furnish BNYM with bid, offer, or market values of securities and instruct BNYM to use such information in its calculations

Administrative Services Agreement Page 7 of 39

hereunder. BNYM shall at no time be required or obligated to commence or maintain either any utilization of, or subscriptions to, any securities pricing or similar service or any arrangements with any brokers, dealers or market makers or specialists described in the Offering Materials.

(h) In the event BNYM’s computations hereunder rely, in whole or in part, upon information, including (i) bid, offer or market values of securities or other assets, or accruals of interest or earnings thereon, from a pricing or similar service utilized, or subscribed to, by BNYM which BNYM in its commercially reasonable judgment deems reliable, or (ii) prices or values supplied by the Fund or by brokers, dealers, market makers, or specialists described in the Offering Materials, 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. BNYM shall not be required to inquire into any valuation of securities or other assets by the Funds or any third party described above, 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 securities of the same issuers. 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 the Funds is or will be actually paid, but will accrue such interest until otherwise instructed by the Funds.

(i) The method of valuation of securities and the method of computing the Net Assets shall be as set forth in the then currently effective Offering Materials of the Funds. To the extent the description of the valuation methodology of securities or computation of Net Assets as specified in the Funds’ then currently effective Offering Materials is at any time inconsistent with any applicable laws or regulations, the Funds shall immediately so notify BNYM in writing and thereafter shall either furnish BNYM at all appropriate times with the values of such securities and Net Assets, or subject to the prior approval of BNYM, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, instruct BNYM in writing as to the appropriate valuation methodology to be employed by BNYM to compute Net Assets in a manner that the Funds then represent in writing to be consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. The Funds may also from time to time, subject to the prior approval of BNYM, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, instruct BNYM in writing to compute the value of the securities or Net Assets in a manner other than as specified in this Agreement. By giving such instruction, the Funds shall be deemed to have represented that such instruction is consistent with all applicable laws and regulations and the then currently effective Offering Materials.

(j) BNYM, in performing the services required of it under the terms of this Agreement, shall be entitled to rely fully in good faith on the accuracy and validity of any and all Instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation furnished to it on behalf of the Funds and, in the absence of bad faith by BNYM, shall have no duty or obligation to review the accuracy, validity or propriety of such Instructions, explanations, information, specifications or documentation, including the amounts or formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual liabilities and expenses; and the amounts receivable and the amounts payable on the sale or purchase of securities.

Administrative Services Agreement Page 8 of 39

(k) BNYM may apply to an Authorized Person of the Funds for Instructions with respect to any matter arising in connection with BNYM’s performance hereunder, and BNYM shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith without negligence or willful misconduct 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; provided, however, that the time period between such application and the specified date shall provide the Authorized Person with a commercially reasonable time to respond to the application. BNYM shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith without negligence or willful misconduct in accordance with a proposal included in any such application on or after the date specified therein unless, prior to such date for taking or omitting to take any such action, BNYM has received Instructions from an Authorized Person in response to such application specifying the action to be taken or omitted.

(l) If BNYM is in doubt as to any action it should or should not take, it may request Instructions from the Funds. If it is reasonably in doubt as to any question of law, BNYM may consult with counsel to the Funds or its own counsel, at its own expense. In the event of a conflict between the Instructions received from a Fund and the advice of counsel, BNYM shall be fully protected with respect to anything done or omitted by it in good faith in accordance with the advice or opinion of such counsel. Before relying on advice of counsel that conflicts with Instructions received from a Fund, BNYM shall inform the Fund of such conflict.

(m) BNYM represents to the Funds, as of the date of this Agreement, that it maintains anti-money laundering policies and procedures including those to maintain, assess and test anti-money laundering compliance systems and controls and reporting suspicious activity in compliance with applicable anti-money laundering legislation and regulations, including the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act and the USA PATRIOT Act and regulations issued by the U.S. Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control, as amended from time to time. BNYM shall provide the “BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services” described in Schedule I, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the following additional terms and conditions:

(i) BNYM does not warrant that (x) its performance of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services will achieve any particular intended result, (y) that its performance will fully satisfy any legal obligations of a Fund, or (z) that it will detect all possible instances of money laundering or transactions involving money laundering or other unlawful activities. BNYM MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

(ii) The Funds or their agent shall provide each subscription agreement to BNYM a reasonable time before formally accepting any initial payment from a Shareholder into an operating account of which a Fund is the beneficial owner,

Administrative Services Agreement Page 9 of 39

and shall not accept any such payment into such account unless and until BNY shall have completed the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services with respect to such Shareholder. BNYM may assume the authenticity and accuracy of any document provided by a Shareholder without verification unless in the sole discretion of BNYM the same on its face appears not to be genuine. In the event of delay or failure by the Shareholder to produce any information required by the subscription agreement or by BNYM in providing the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services, BNYM may refuse to accept the subscription and the subscription monies related thereto or may refuse to allow a redemption until proper information has been provided. The Investment Advisor shall instruct BNYM not to accept any payment on behalf of the Funds from a Shareholder or pay on behalf of the Funds any redemption or repurchase proceeds to a Shareholder if the Investment Advisor determines that such acceptance or payment would violate any anti-money laundering laws applicable to the Funds. In the event any initial payment from a Shareholder is sent to an account other than an account of the Funds maintained at a BNYM Affiliate, (A) the Funds shall promptly notify BNYM of the receipt of such payment, (B) the Funds shall not invest such payment until BNYM has completed the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services with respect to such Shareholder, and (C) the Funds shall indemnify and hold BNYM harmless in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with respect to any such payment that is invested prior to BNYM’s completion of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services and acceptance of the subscription therefor.

(iii) BNYM shall provide prompt notice to the Funds of any potential Shareholder with respect to whom BNYM has anti-money laundering concerns based on the performance of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services.

(iv) BNYM is providing the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services based on the representation and warranty of the Funds, which shall be deemed continued and repeated on each day on which BNYM provides such services, that the Funds have made the independent determination that the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services together with the activities of the Funds satisfy all the requirements of the laws with respect to money laundering applicable to the Funds.

(v) Upon request, BNYM shall provide to the Board a written summary of BNYM’s anti-money laundering compliance procedures applicable to its performance of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services. BNYM shall notify the Funds of any material changes to its AML policies, procedures and controls that may affect its performance of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services as soon as reasonably practicable under the circumstances.

(vi) In the event of any failure by BNYM to provide any of the BNYM Anti-Money Laundering Services in accordance with its standard of care and not otherwise, BNYM’s liability shall be limited to the lesser of (x) the actual direct money damages suffered by the affected Fund as a direct result of such failure and (y) the amount paid by the Funds to BNYM under this Agreement during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding the month in which the event giving rise to such liability occurred. Any action brought against BNYM for claims hereunder must be brought within one year following the date on which the affected Fund becomes aware or should have become aware of such failure.

Administrative Services Agreement Page 10 of 39

(n) BNYM shall have no duties or responsibilities whatsoever including any custodial duties, except such duties and responsibilities as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, including Schedule I or as otherwise required of BNYM by laws or regulations applicable to BNYM, and no covenant or obligation shall be implied against BNYM in connection with this Agreement; provided that the scope of services provided by BNYM under this Agreement shall not be increased as a result of new or revised regulatory or other requirements that may become applicable with respect to the Funds, unless the parties hereto expressly agree in writing to any such increase in the scope of services.

(o) BNYM agrees to treat as confidential information all accounting and Shareholder information and other business records of the Funds, including any information relating to any Fund investment, disclosed or made available to BNYM in connection with its provision of services pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (all such information, the “Confidential Information”) and BNYM shall not disclose the Confidential Information to any other person, except as necessary in connection with its provision of services hereunder to (i) its employees, BNYM Affiliates, delegees, agents and other service providers to the Fund (including, without limitation, information provided by BNYM in connection with an independent third party compliance or other review), (ii) its and the Fund’s respective regulators, examiners, internal and external accountants, auditors, and counsel, or (iii) any other person when required by a court order or legal process, or whenever advised by its counsel that it would be liable for a failure to make such disclosure. To the extent legally permissible, BNYM shall notify a Fund of its intent to supply Confidential Information as the result of a request that related specifically or directly to the Fund. BNYM shall instruct its employees, regulators, examiners, internal and external accountants, auditors, and counsel, and instruct any BNYM Affiliate, delegee or agent to instruct its employees, regulators, examiners, internal and external accountants, auditors, and counsel, who may be afforded access to Confidential Information of such obligations of confidentiality, and shall not use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than the provision of services hereunder. Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes public knowledge through no act or omission of the receiving person, (ii) is publicly disclosed by a Fund or any Shareholder, or (iii) is otherwise obtained from third parties not known by BNYM to be bound by a duty of confidentiality.

BNYM-AIS to disclose, information regarding the Funds and their accounts (“Fund-Related Data”) to the BNY Mellon Group and to its third-party service providers who are subject to confidentiality obligations with respect to such information and (ii) BNYM may store the names and business addresses of Fund employees on the systems or in the records of the BNY Mellon Group or its service providers. In addition, the BNY Mellon Group may aggregate Fund-Related Data with other data collected and/or calculated by the BNY Mellon Group, and the BNY Mellon Group will own all such aggregated data, provided that the BNY Mellon Group shall not distribute the aggregated data in a format that identifies Fund-Related Data with the Funds. Each Fund is authorized to consent to the foregoing and confirms that the disclosure to and storage by the BNY Mellon Group of such information does not violate any relevant data protection legislation. In addition, BNYM may disclose Fund-Related Data as required by law or at the request of any governmental or regulatory authority.

(q) BNYM will take reasonable precautions, as required by applicable law, to ensure the security of Shareholder records and information, protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of such records or information, and protect against unauthorized access to or use of such records or information that would result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any Shareholder or Fund (“Incident”) and will maintain reasonable procedures to detect and respond to Incidents or any other internal or external security breaches. BNYM will monitor and review its procedures periodically and revise them, as necessary, to ensure they appropriately address any reasonably foreseeable risks.

(s) BNYM may utilize systems and/or software designed, and databases provided, by certain third parties, and shall not be liable for any loss, damage or expense that occur as a result of the failure of any such systems, software, and/or databases not caused by BNYM’s own bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct. In providing the services hereunder, BNYM is authorized to utilize any vendor (including pricing and valuation services) reasonably believed by BNYM to be reliable; provided, however, that with respect to pricing and valuation services, BNYM shall provide the Funds prior written notice of the names of such service providers before utilizing any such service with respect to any Fund securities to the extent reasonably practicable under the circumstances. In providing the services hereunder, BNYM is authorized to utilize any vendor (including pricing and valuation services) reasonably believed by BNYM to be reliable. 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 hereunder, provided, that such vendor was selected with reasonable care and without bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct. No such vendor shall be an agent or delegee of BNYM hereunder.

Administrative Services Agreement Page 12 of 39

(t) BNYM shall make reasonable provisions for emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to the extent appropriate equipment is available and, in the event of equipment failures, BNYM shall, at no additional expense to the Fund, take reasonable steps to minimize service interruption.

(c) While BNYM will endeavor to identify out-of-compliance conditions, BNYM does not and could not for the fees charged, make any guarantees, representations or warranties with respect to its ability to identify all such conditions. In the event of any errors or omissions in the performance of Compliance Services, the applicable Fund’s sole and exclusive remedy and BNYM’s sole liability shall be limited to re-performance by BNYM of the Compliance Services affected and in connection therewith the correction of any error or omission, if practicable and the preparation of a corrected report, at no cost to the applicable Fund.

ELECTRONIC SERVICES TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1. License; Use. (a) This Appendix I shall govern the Funds’ use of electronic communications, information delivery, portfolio management and banking services, that The Bank of New York Mellon and its affiliates (“BNYM”) may provide to the Funds, such as The Bank of New York Mellon Inform ™ and The Bank of New York Mellon CA$H-Register Plus^®, and any computer software, proprietary data and documentation provided by BNYM to Fund in connection therewith (collectively, the “Electronic Services”). In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Appendix I and the main body of this Agreement with respect to the Funds’ use of the Electronic Services, the terms of this Appendix I shall control.

(b) BNYM grants to each Fund a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive license to use the Electronic Services to which each Fund subscribes solely for the purpose of transmitting instructions and information (“Written Instructions”), obtaining reports, analyses and statements and other information and data, making inquiries and otherwise communicating with BNYM in connection with the Funds’ relationship with BNYM. Each Fund shall use the Electronic Services solely for its own internal and proper business purposes and not in the operation of a service bureau. Except as set forth herein, no license or right of any kind is granted to any Fund with respect to the Electronic Services. Each Fund acknowledges that BNYM and its suppliers retain and have title and exclusive proprietary rights to the Electronic Services, including any trade secrets or other ideas, concepts, know-how, methodologies, and information incorporated therein and the exclusive rights to any copyrights, trade dress, look and feel, trademarks and patents (including registrations and applications for registration of either), and other legal protections available in respect thereof. Each Fund further acknowledges that all or a part of the Electronic Services may be copyrighted or trademarked (or a registration or claim made therefor) by BNYM or its suppliers. The Funds shall not take any action with respect to the Electronic Services inconsistent with the foregoing acknowledgments, nor shall any Fund attempt to decompile, reverse engineer or modify the Electronic Services. The Funds may not copy, distribute, sell, lease or provide, directly or indirectly, the Electronic Services or any portion thereof to any other person or entity without BNYM’s prior written consent. The Funds may not remove any statutory copyright notice or other notice included in the Electronic Services. The Funds shall reproduce any such notice on any reproduction of any portion of the Electronic Services and shall add any statutory copyright notice or other notice upon BNYM’s request.

(c) Portions of the Electronic Services may contain, deliver or rely on data supplied by third parties (“Third Party Data”), such as pricing data and indicative data, and services supplied by third parties (“Third Party Services”) such as analytic and accounting services. Third Party Data and Third Party Services supplied hereunder are obtained from sources that BNYM believes to be reliable but are provided without any independent investigation by BNYM. BNYM and its suppliers do not represent or warrant that the Third Party Data or Third Party Services are correct, complete or current.

Administrative Services Agreement Page 25 of 39

solely for each Fund’s internal use, and may not be reused, disseminated or redistributed in any form. The Funds shall not use any Third Party Data in any manner that would act as a substitute for obtaining a license for the data directly from the supplier. Third Party Data and Third Party Services should not be used in making any investment decision. BNYM AND ITS SUPPLIERS ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY RESULTS OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF OR RELIANCE UPON THIRD PARTY DATA OR THIRD PARTY SERVICES. BNYM’s suppliers of Third Party Data and Services are intended third party beneficiaries of this Section 1(c) and Section 5 below.

(d) The Funds understand and agree that any links in the Electronic Services to Internet sites may be to sites sponsored and maintained by third parties. BNYM makes no guarantees, representations or warranties concerning the information contained in any third party site (including without limitation that such information is correct, current, complete or free of viruses or other contamination), or any products or services sold through third party sites. All such links to third party Internet sites are provided solely as a convenience to the Funds and each Fund accesses and uses such sites at its own risk. A link in the Electronic Services to a third party site does not constitute BNYM’s endorsement, authorisation or sponsorship of such site or any products and services available from such site.

2. Equipment. The Funds shall obtain and maintain at their own cost and expense all equipment and services, including but not limited to communications services, necessary for them to utilize and obtain access to the Electronic Services, and BNYM shall not be responsible for the reliability or availability of any such equipment or services.

However, for the avoidance of doubt, reports generated by the Funds containing information relating to their account(s) (except for Third Party Data contained therein) are not deemed to be within the meaning of the term “Information.” The Funds shall keep the Information confidential by using the same care and discretion that the Funds use with respect to their own confidential property and trade secrets, but not less than reasonable care. Upon termination of the Agreement or the licenses granted herein for any reason, the Funds shall return to BNYM any and all copies of the Information which are in their possession or under their control (except that the Funds may retain reports containing Third Party Data, provided that such Third Party Data remains subject to the provisions of this Appendix).

THE FUNDS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE ELECTRONIC SERVICES, THIRD PARTY DATA AND THIRD PARTY SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL BNYM OR ANY SUPPLIER BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES, WHETHER DIRECT, INDIRECT SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL, WHICH THE FUNDS MAY INCUR IN CONNECTION WITH THE ELECTRONIC SERVICES, THIRD PARTY DATA OR THIRD PARTY SERVICES, EVEN IF BNYM OR SUCH SUPPLIER KNEW OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

6. Security; Reliance; Unauthorized Use; Funds Transfers. BNYM will establish security procedures to be followed in connection with the use of the Electronic Services, and each Fund agrees to comply with the security procedures. Each Fund understands and agrees that the security procedures are intended to determine whether instructions received by BNYM through the Electronic Services are authorized but are not (unless otherwise specified in writing) intended to detect any errors contained in such instructions. Each Fund will cause all persons utilizing the Electronic Services to treat any user and authorization codes, passwords, authentication keys and other security devices with the highest degree of care and confidentiality. Upon termination of each Fund’s use of the Electronic Services, each Fund shall return to BNYM any security devices (e.g., token cards) provided by BNYM or destroy such devices. BNYM is hereby irrevocably authorized to comply with and rely upon on Written Instructions and other communications, whether or not authorized, received by it through the Electronic Services. Each Fund acknowledges that it has sole responsibility for ensuring that only Authorized Persons use the Electronic Services and that to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law BNYM shall not be responsible nor liable for any unauthorized use thereof or for any losses sustained by any Fund arising from or in connection with the use of the Electronic Services or BNYM’s reliance upon and compliance with Written Instructions and other communications received through the Electronic Services.

Administrative Services Agreement Page 27 of 39

bank participating in the funds transfer, may rely solely on the unique identifier, even if it identifies a party different than the party named. Such reliance on a unique identifier shall apply to beneficiaries named in such instructions as well as any financial institution which is designated in such instructions to act as an intermediary in a funds transfer. It is understood and agreed that unless otherwise specifically provided herein, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto shall be bound by the rules of any funds transfer system utilized to effect a funds transfer hereunder.
