AMENDMENT, dated June 15, 2001 , to the Custody Agreements listed in
schedule 1 to this Amendment (each an "Agreement") between the funds listed
in schedule 1 hereto (each a "Customer"), and The Chase Manhattan Bank
("Bank").
It is hereby agreed as follows:
Section 1. Except as modified herby, the Agreement is confirmed in all
respects. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the
meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.
Section 2. The Agreement is amended by deleting the Investment Company
Rider thereto and inserting, in lieu thereof, the following Rider:
I. Add the following after the first sentence of Section 3 of the
Agreement:
At the request of Customer, Bank may, but need not, add to Schedule A
an Eligible Foreign Custodian where Bank has not acted as Foreign
Custody Manager with respect to the selection thereof. Bank shall
notify Customer in the event that it elects to add any such entity.
II. Add the following language to the end of Section 3 of the
Agreement:
(i) The term Subcustodian as used herein shall mean the following:
(a) a "U.S. Bank," which shall mean a U.S. bank as defined in rule
17f-5(a)(7); and
(b) an "Eligible Foreign Custodian," which, as defined in rule
17f-5(a)(1) and (5), shall mean (i) a banking institution or trust
company, incorporated or organized under the laws of a country other
than the United States, that is regulated as such by that country's
government or an agency thereof, and (ii) a majority-owned direct or
indirect subsidiary of a U.S. Bank or bank holding company which
subsidiary is incorporated or organized under the laws of a country
other than the United States. In addition, an Eligible Foreign
Custodian shall also mean any other entity that shall have been so
qualified by exemptive order, rule or other appropriate action of the
SEC.
(ii) The term "securities depository" as used herein shall mean the
following when referring to a securities depository located:
(a) outside the U.S., an "Eligible Securities Depository" which, in
turn, shall have the same meaning as in rule 17f-7(b)(1)(i)-(vi) as
the same may be amended from time to time, or that has otherwise been
made exempt by an SEC exemptive order, rule other appropriate SEC
action, except that prior to the compliance date with rule 17f-7 for a
particular securities depository the term "securities depository"
shall be as defined in (a)(1)(ii)-(iii) of the 1997 amendments to rule
17f-5.
(b) in the U.S., a "securities depository" as defined in SEC rule
17f-4(a).
(iii) For purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed that the
term Subcustodian shall not include any securities depository. For
purposes of the provisions of the Agreement imposing liability on
Bank, the term Subcustodian shall not include any Eligible Foreign
Custodian as to which Bank has not acted as Foreign Custody Manager.
III. "Add new Section 16 to the Agreement as follows:
16. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RULE 17F-5 ("RULE
17F-5").
(a) Customer's board of directors (or equivant body) (hereinafter "Board")
hereby delegates to Bank, and Bank hereby accepts the delegation to it of,
the obligation to perform as Customer's "Foreign Custody Manager" (as that
term is defined in rule 17f-5(a)(3)), including for the purposes of: (i)
selecting Eligible Foreign Custodians (as that term is defined in rule
17f-5(a)(1), as the same may be amended from time to time, or that have
otherwise been exempted by SEC exemptive order, rule other appropriate SEC
action) to hold Customer's Foreign Assets, and (ii) evaluating the
contractual arrangements with such Eligible Foreign Custodians (as set forth
in rule 17f-5(c)(2)), and (iii) monitoring such foreign custody arrangements
(as set forth in rule 17f-5(c)(3)).
(b) In connection with the foregoing, Bank shall:
(i) provide written reports notifying Customer's Board of the
placement of Foreign Assets with particular Eligible Foreign
Custodians and of any material change in the arrangements with such
Eligible Foreign Custodians, with such reports to be provided to
Customer's Board at such times as the Board deems reasonable and
appropriate based on the circumstances of Customer's foreign custody
arrangements but until further notice from Customer requesting a
different schedule, such reports shall be provided not less than
quarterly in summary form, with a more detailed report annually.
(ii) exercise such reasonable care, prudence and diligence in
performing as Customer's Foreign Custody Manager as a person having
responsibility for the safekeeping of Foreign Assets would exercise;
(iii) in selecting an Eligible Foreign Custodian, first have
determined that Foreign Assets placed and maintained in the
safekeeping of such Eligible Foreign Custodian shall be subject to
reasonable care, based on the standards applicable to custodians in
the relevant market, after having considered all factors relevant to
the safekeeping of such Assets, including, without limitation, those
factors set forth in rule 17f-5(c)(1)(i)-(iv);
(iv) determine that the written contract with the Eligible Foreign
Custodian will provide reasonable care for Foreign Assets based on the
standards applicable to custodians in the relevant market as provided
in rule 17f-5(c)(1); and that such written contract contains the
provisions set forth in Rule 17f-5(c)(2) or other provisions that the
Bank determines will provide, in their entirety, the same or greater
level of care and protection for the Foreign Assets: and
(v) have established a system to monitor the continued appropriateness
of maintaining Foreign Assets with particular Eligible Foreign
Custodians and performance of the governing contractual arrangements;
(vi) in the event that Bank shall have determined that the existing
Eligible Foreign Custodian in a given country would no longer afford
Foreign Assets reasonable care, Bank shall notify Customer and
promptly select another Eligible Foreign Custodian in such country and
shall arrange for the transfer of any Foreign Assets to that Custodian
as soon as practicable; it being understood, however, that in the
event that Bank shall have determined that no other Eligible Foreign
Custodian in that country would afford reasonable care, Bank shall
promptly so advise Customer and shall then act in accordance with the
Instructions of Customer with respect to the disposition of the
affected Foreign Assets.
Subject to (b)(i)-(v) above, Bank is hereby authorized to place and maintain
Foreign Assets on behalf of Customer with Eligible Foreign Custodians
pursuant to a written contract deemed appropriate by Bank.
(c) Except as expressly provided herein and in Section 17 hereof, Customer
shall be solely responsible to assure that the maintenance of Foreign Assets
hereunder complies with the rules, regulations, interpretations and exemptive
orders promulgated by or under the authority of the SEC.
(d) Bank represents to Customer that it is a U.S. Bank defined in rule
17f-5(a)(7). Customer represents to Bank that: (1) the Assets being placed
and maintained in Bank's custody are subject to the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") as the same may be amended from time to
time; (2) its Board (or other governing body) has determined that it is
reasonable to rely on Bank to perform as Customer's Foreign Custody Manager;
and (3) its Board (or other governing body) or its investment adviser shall
have determined that Customer may maintain Foreign Assets in each country in
which Customer's Foreign Assets shall be held hereunder and determined to
accept the risks arising therefrom (including, but not limited to, a
country's financial infrastructure, prevailing custody and settlement
practices, laws applicable to the safekeeping and recovery of Foreign Assets
held in custody, and the likelihood of nationalization, currently controls
and the like) (collectively ("Country Risk")). Nothing contained herein shall
require Bank to make any selection on behalf of Customer that would entail
consideration of Country Risk and, except as may be provided in (e) below, to
engage in any monitoring of Country Risk.
2
(e) Bank shall provide to Customer such information relating to Country
Risk as is specified in Appendix 1-A hereto. Customer hereby acknowledges
that: (i) such information is solely designed to inform Customer of market
conditions and procedures and is not intended as a recommendation to invest
or not invest in particular markets; and (ii) Bank has gathered the
information from sources it considers reliable, but that Bank shall have no
responsibility for inaccuracies or incomplete information.
IV. Add the following language to the end of the first sentence of Section
4(d) of the Agreement: "or, in the case of cash deposits, except for liens or
rights in favor of creditors of the Subcustodian arising under bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar laws."
V. Add a new Section 17 to the Agreement as follows:
17. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RULE 17F-7 ("RULE
17F-7").
(a) Bank shall, for consideration by Customer, provide an analysis in
accordance with the rule 17f-7(a)(1)(i)(A) of the custody risks associated
with maintaining Customer's Foreign Assets with each Eligible Securities
Depository used by Bank as of the date hereof (or, in the case of an Eligible
Securities Depository not used by Bank as of the date hereof, prior to the
initial placement of Customer's Foreign Assets at such Depository) and at
which any Foreign Assets of Customer are held or are expected to be held. The
foregoing analysis will be provided to Customer at Bank's Website. In
connection with the foregoing, Customer shall notify Bank of any Eligible
Securities Depositories at which it does not choose to have its Foreign
Assets held. Bank shall monitor the custody risks associated with maintaining
Customer's Foreign Assets at each such Eligible Securities Depository on a
continuing basis and shall promptly notify Customer or its adviser of any
material changes in such risks.
(b) Bank shall exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence in
performing the requirements set forth in Section 17(a) above.
(c) Based on the information available to it in the exercise of diligence,
Bank shall determine the eligibility under rule 17f-7 of each depository
before including it on Appendix 1-B hereto and shall promptly advise Customer
if any Eligible Securities Depository ceases to be eligible and shall then
act in accordance with instructions of Customer with respect to the
disposition of any Foreign Assets held by such depository. (Eligible
Securities Depositories used by Bank as of the date hereof are set forth in
Appendix 1-B hereto, and as the same may be amended on notice to Customer
from time to time.)
(d) Bank need not commence performing any of the duties set forth in this
Section 17 prior to March 31, 2001, but Bank shall advise Customer if it is
prepared to commence such duties prior to such date as to particular
depositories.
