ADDITION OF FUNDS TO ACCOUNTING SERVICES AGREEMENT

This document relates to the addition of each registered investment company listed on Attachment A to this document (each an “Additional Fund”) as a party to the Agreement (as defined below).

WHEREAS, each Additional Fund wishes to retain PFPC Inc. (“PFPC”) to provide the services set forth in the Agreement (as defined below) to its investment portfolios listed on Attachment A to this document (each an “Additional Portfolio”), and PFPC wishes to furnish such services;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each Additional Fund and PFPC agree as follows:

For purposes of this document:

“Agreement” means the Accounting Services Agreement initially made as of July 1, 2005 separately by and between each of American Skandia Trust and Strategic Partners Mutual Funds, Inc. (each of which is a “Fund” under such Accounting Services Agreement) and PFPC, as such Accounting Services Agreement may be amended or amended and restated from time to time.

“Effective Date” means, with respect to a particular Additional Portfolio, the effective date listed for such Additional Portfolio on Attachment A to this document (or such other date as agreed in writing between PFPC and the Additional Fund to which such Additional Portfolio relates).

Each Additional Fund hereby appoints PFPC to provide the services set forth in the Agreement, in accordance with the terms set forth in the Agreement, to each of its Additional Portfolios as of the Effective Date for each such respective Additional Portfolio. PFPC accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish such services as of the relevant Effective Date.

An Additional Fund shall be added as a party to the Agreement as of the first Effective Date which is applicable to one of the Additional Fund’s Additional Portfolios, and as of such Effective Date such Additional Fund shall be a “Fund” for all purposes under the Agreement. For clarity, notwithstanding the foregoing, Strategic Partners Style Specific Funds was added as a party to the Agreement and became a “Fund” for all purposes under the Agreement as of August 15, 2005.

An Additional Portfolio shall be deemed to be listed on Exhibit A attached to the Agreement as of the Effective Date for such Additional Portfolio, and as of the Effective Date for a particular Additional

Portfolio (but not before such Effective Date) such Additional Portfolio shall be a “Portfolio” for all purposes under the Agreement.

For clarity and notwithstanding the provisions of the first sentence of Section 22(c) of the Agreement, this document embodies a portion of the agreement and understanding between each Additional Fund and PFPC relating to the subject matter of the Agreement and the Agreement shall not supercede the terms and provisions of this document.

PFPC is entering into this document with each of the Additional Funds separately, and any duty, obligation or liability owed or incurred by PFPC with respect to a particular Additional Fund shall be owed or incurred solely with respect to that Additional Fund, and shall not in any way create any duty, obligation or liability with respect to any other Additional Fund. This document shall be interpreted to carry out the intent of the parties hereto that PFPC is entering into a separate arrangement with each separate Additional Fund.

Agreed:

EXHIBIT B

Data Repository and Analytics Suite

1. PFPC Services. With respect to each Fund, PFPC will:

(a)

Provide Internet access to PFPC’s data repository and analytics suite at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx or other site operated by PFPC (the “Site”) for Fund portfolio data otherwise supplied by PFPC to the Fund or its service providers via other electronic or manual methods. Types of information to be provided on the Site include: (i) data relating to portfolio securities (other than Compliance Reporting Services, as defined below), (ii) general ledger balances and (iii) net asset value-related data, including NAV and net asset, distribution and yield detail (collectively, the “Accounting Services”). Types of information to be provided on the Site also include: data relating to portfolio securities relative to certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, securities laws or the Fund's offering documents as they relate to the Fund’s Portfolios (collectively, the "Compliance Reporting Services") (the Accounting Services and the Compliance Reporting Services are together referred to in Exhibits B and C as the "Services"). Each Fund hereby agrees that the Compliance Reporting Services are back-end reports only and that PFPC (i) makes no representation or warranty about the accuracy of the Compliance Reporting Services, or how complete such information is, at any time and (ii) shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy or complete or incomplete nature of the Compliance Reporting Services or reliance thereon by any party;

(b)

Supply each of the Authorized Users (as defined in Section 15 of the Agreement) (the “Users”) with a logon ID and Password;

(c)

Provide to Users access to the information listed in (a) above using standard inquiry tools and reports. With respect to the Accounting Services, Users will be able to modify standard inquiries to develop user-defined inquiry tools; however, PFPC will review computer costs for running user-defined inquiries and may assess surcharges for those requiring excessive hardware resources (in addition to any fees otherwise agreed in writing between the Fund and PFPC). In addition, costs for developing custom reports or enhancements are not included in any fees otherwise agreed in writing between the Fund and PFPC and will be billed separately to the Fund;

(d)

Utilize a form of encryption that is generally available to the public in the U.S. for standard Internet browsers and establish, monitor and verify firewalls and other security features (commercially reasonable for this type of information and these types of users) and exercise commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to maintain the security and integrity of the Site; and

(e)

Monitor the telephone lines involved in providing the Services relating to the Fund and inform the Fund promptly of any malfunctions or service interruptions relating to the Fund.

2. Duties of each Fund and its Users. Each Fund and its Users (to the extent applicable) will:

(a)

Provide and maintain a web browser supporting Secure Sockets Layer 128-bit encryption; and

(b)

Keep logon IDs and passwords confidential and notify PFPC immediately in the event that a logon ID or password is lost, stolen or if the Fund or one of its User s has reason to believe that a logon ID or password is or was being used by an unauthorized person.

3. Standard of Care; Limitations of Liability

(a)

Nothing in this Section 3 shall in any way serve to limit any limitation of liability provision otherwise applicable to PFPC under the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the specific terms of this Exhibit B as they relate to a particular Fund and the balance of the Agreement as it relates to such Fund, this Exhibit B shall control as to the Services with respect to such Fund.

(b)

Each Fund acknowledges that the Internet is an “open,” publicly accessible network and not under the control of any party. PFPC’s provision of Services is dependent upon the proper functioning of the Internet and services provided by telecommunications carriers, firewall providers, encryption system developers and others. Each Fund agrees that PFPC shall not be liable in any respect for the actions or omissions of any third party wrongdoers (i.e., hackers not employed by PFPC or its affiliates) or of any third parties involved in the Services and shall not be liable in any respect for the selection of any such third party, unless that selection constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on the part of PFPC.

(c)

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provisions of this Exhibit B or the Agreement, PFPC shall not be liable for delays or failures to perform any of the Services or errors or loss of data occurring directly or indirectly by reason of circumstances beyond PFPC’s reasonable control, including without limitation the items referenced in Section 13(b)(i) of the Agreement and including without limitation, functions or malfunctions of the Internet or telecommunications services, firewalls, encryption systems or security devices occurring directly or indirectly by reason of circumstances beyond PFPC’s reasonable control or by reason of laws or regulations imposed after July 1, 2005.
