SECTION 18: LIABILITY

The Custodian assumes only the usual duties and obligations normally performed by custodians of open-end investment companies. The Custodian specifically assumes no responsibility for the management, investment or reinvestment of the Securities from time to time owned by the Funds, whether or not on deposit hereunder. The Custodian assumes no duty, obligation or responsibility whatsoever with respect to Securities not deposited with the Custodian.

The Custodian may rely upon the advice of counsel, who may be counsel for the Trust or for the Custodian, and upon statements of accountants, brokers or other persons believed by the Custodian in good faith to be expert in the matters upon which they are consulted.

No liability of any kind, other than to the Trust or affected Fund, shall attach to the Custodian by reason of its custody of the Securities and cash held by the Custodian hereunder or otherwise as a result of its custodianship. In the event that any claim shall be made against the Custodian, it shall have the right to pay the claim and reimburse itself from the assets of the affected Fund; provided, however, that no such reimbursement shall occur unless the affected Fund is notified of the claim and is afforded an opportunity to contest or defend the claim, if it so elects. Each Fund agrees to indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless for any loss, claim, damage or expense arising out of the custodian relationship under this Agreement; provided such loss, claim, damage or expense is not the direct result of the Custodian's negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 19: TAXES

The Custodian shall not be liable for any taxes, assessments or governmental charges that may be levied or assessed upon the Securities held by it hereunder, or upon the income therefrom. Upon Written or Oral Instruction, the Custodian may pay any such tax, assessment or charge and reimburse itself out of the monies of the Fund or the Securities held hereunder. The Custodian shall execute ownership and other certificates and affidavits for all federal and state tax purposes in connection with the receipt of income or other payments with respect to the Securities of each Fund held by it and in connection with transfers of such Securities.

SECTION 20: FOREIGN SECURITIES

The Custodian shall be authorized to provide services as an eligible foreign custodian and act as a foreign custody manager, as those terms are defined in Rule 17f-5 under the 1940 Act, as amended. The Custodian shall not be responsible for acting as a foreign custody manager unless and until the Custodian accepts such delegation of responsibility pursuant to a separate Delegation Agreement or Foreign Custody Manager Agreement approved by the Board of Directors, that describes the Custodian's duties as a foreign custody manager and identifies the Funds for which the Custodian will so act.

SECTION 21: SUB-CUSTODIANS

	(c)	The Custodian may from time to time request appointment of one or more Sub-Custodians. Upon receipt of Written or Oral Instructions authorizing the use of such a Sub-Custodian, the Custodian shall appoint one or more Sub-Custodians of Securities and cash owned by the Trust from time to time.
	(d)	The Custodian shall have no liability to the Trust by reason of any act or omission of any Sub-Custodian approved by the Trust, and the Trust shall indemnify the Custodian and hold it harmless from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees, payments, expenses and liabilities arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with the performance of any Sub-Custodian approved by the Trust. The Custodian assigns to the Trust any and all claims for any losses, costs, expenses, or damages that may be incurred by the Trust by reason of the negligence, gross negligence or misconduct of any Sub-Custodian approved by the Trust, or by reason of the failure of a Sub-Custodian approved by the Trust to perform in accordance with any applicable agreement, including instructions of the Custodian. The Custodian shall be under no obligation to prosecute or to defend any action, suit or claim arising out of, or in connection with, the performance of any Sub-Custodian approved by the Trust, if, in the opinion of the Custodian's counsel, such action will involve expense or liability to the Custodian. The Trust shall, upon request, furnish the Custodian with satisfactory indemnity against such expense or liability, and upon request of the Custodian, the Trust shall assume the entire defense of any action, suit, or claim subject to the foregoing indemnity.

With respect to each Sub-Custodian not approved by the Trust, the Custodian shall be liable to the Trust for any loss which shall occur as a result of the failure of the Sub-Custodian to exercise reasonable care with respect to the safekeeping of assets to the same extent that the Custodian would be liable to the Trust if the Custodian were holding such assets in its own premises. The Custodian shall be liable to the Trust under this paragraph only to the extent of the Trust's direct damages, to be determined based on the market value of the assets which are subject to loss and without reference to any special conditions or circumstances.

SECTION 22: EFFECTIVENESS, DURATION AND TERMINATION

	(e)	This Agreement may be executed in more than one counterpart, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and shall become effective on the date hereof. This Agreement shall remain in effect until terminated as hereinafter provided.
	(f)	This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon written notice to the other. The termination shall become effective at the time specified in the notice but no earlier than sixty (60) days after the date of the notice. Upon notice of termination, the Trust shall use its best efforts to obtain a successor custodian. If a successor custodian is not appointed within ninety (90) days after the date of the notice of termination, the Board shall, by resolution, designate the Trust as its own custodian. Each successor custodian shall be a person qualified to serve under the 1940 Act. Promptly following receipt of written notice from the Trust of the appointment of a successor custodian and receipt of Written or Oral Instructions, the Custodian shall deliver all Securities and cash it then holds directly to the successor custodian and shall, upon request of the Trust and the successor custodian and upon payment of the Custodian's reasonable charges and disbursements, (i) execute and deliver to the successor custodian an instrument approved by the successor custodian's counsel transferring to the successor custodian all the rights, duties and obligations of the Custodian, (ii) transfer to the successor custodian the originals or copies of all books and records maintained by the Custodian hereunder and (iii) cooperate with, and provide reasonable assistance to, the successor custodian in the establishment of the books and records necessary to carry out the successor custodian's responsibilities hereunder. Upon delivery of the Securities and other assets of the Trust and compliance with the other requirements of this Section 21, the Custodian shall have no further duty or liability hereunder. Every successor custodian appointed hereunder shall execute and deliver an appropriate written acceptance of its appointment and shall thereupon become vested with the rights, duties and obligations of the predecessor custodian.

SECTION 23: REQUIRED PERFORMANCE ON FUND BUSINESS DAYS

Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to or shall require the Custodian, in any capacity hereunder, to perform any functions or duties on any day other than a Fund Business Day. Functions or duties normally scheduled to be performed on any day which is not a Fund Business Day shall be performed on, and as of, the next Fund Business Day unless otherwise required by law.

SECTION 24: MISCELLANEOUS

	(g)	This Agreement shall extend to and bind the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not be assignable by the Trust without the written consent of the Custodian, or by the Custodian without the written consent of the Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign this Agreement without the consent of the other party so long as the assignee is an affiliate, parent or subsidiary of the assigning party and the assignee of the Custodian is qualified to serve as custodian under the 1940 Act.
	(h)	In connection with the operation of this Agreement, the Custodian and the Trust may from time to time agree on such provisions interpretive of or in addition to the provisions of this Agreement as may in their joint opinion be consistent with the general tenor of this Agreement. Any such interpretive or additional provisions shall be in a writing signed by both parties and shall be annexed hereto, provided, however, that no such interpretive or additional provisions shall contravene any applicable federal or state regulations or any provisions of the Declaration of Trust or By-Laws of the Trust. No interpretive or additional provisions made as provided in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be an amendment of this Agreement.
	(i)	This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Minnesota.
	(j)	The captions inserted herein are for convenience of reference and shall not affect, in any way, the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.
