MASTER CUSTODIAN AGREEMENT

Exhibit (3)(h)

This Master Custodian Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of the 20^thday of November, 2007 by and between STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, a trust company chartered under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the “Custodian”) and each open-end registered management investment company identified on Appendix A attached hereto, as such appendix may be amended from time to time, that has executed this Agreement or a counterpart thereof (each such management investment company and each management investment company made subject to this Agreement in accordance with Section 18.5 below shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Fund”).

Although the parties have executed this Agreement in the form of a Master Custodian Agreement for administrative convenience, as provided in Section 18.7.1, this Agreement shall create a separate Custodian Agreement for each Fund, as though Custodian had executed a separate form of Custodian Agreement with each Fund. No rights, responsibilities or liabilities of any Fund shall be attributed to any other Fund.

RECITALS:

WHEREAS, the Fund is an open-end management investment company registered with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “1940 Act”);

WHEREAS, the Fund issues shares in separate series or accounts, with each such series or account representing interests in a separate portfolio of securities and other assets, as identified on Appendix A hereto with respect to the Fund (each separate series or account of the Fund shall hereinafter be referred to a “Portfolio” and collectively as the “Portfolios”);

WHEREAS, the Fund desires to appoint Custodian, on behalf of each of its Portfolios, to serve as custodian on behalf of the Portfolio in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, under the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, Custodian is willing to accept such appointment on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth;

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, mutually covenant and agree as follows:

SECTION 1. APPOINTMENT AND EMPLOYMENT OF CUSTODIAN AND PROPERTY TO BE HELD BY IT

The Fund hereby appoints and employs the Custodian to serve as a custodian of assets of its Portfolios, including securities which the Fund, on behalf of the applicable Portfolio, desires to be held in places within the United States (“domestic securities”) and securities it desires to be held outside the United States (“foreign securities”). The Fund, on behalf of its Portfolio(s), agrees to deliver to the Custodian all securities and cash of the Portfolios owned by the Fund, and all payments of income, payments of principal or capital distributions received by it with

respect to all securities owned by the Portfolios from time to time, and the cash consideration received by it for such new or treasury shares of beneficial interest of the Fund representing interests in the Portfolios (“Shares”) as may be issued or sold from time to time. The Custodian shall not be responsible for any property of a Portfolio which is not received by it or which is delivered out in accordance with Proper Instructions (as such term is defined in Section 7 hereof) including, without limitation, Portfolio property (i) held by brokers, private bankers or other entities on behalf of the Portfolio (each a “Local Agent”), (ii) held by Special Sub-Custodians (as such term is defined in Section 5A hereof), (iii) held by entities which have advanced monies to or on behalf of the Portfolio and which have received Portfolio property as security for such advance(s) (each a “Pledgee”), or (iv) delivered or otherwise removed from the custody of the Custodian (a) in connection with any Free Trade (as such term is defined in Sections 2.2(14) and 2.6(7) hereof) or (b) pursuant to Special Instructions (as such term is defined in Section 7 hereof). With respect to uncertificated shares (the “Underlying Shares”) of investment companies that are registered under the 1940 Act (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Underlying Portfolios”), the holding of confirmation statements that identify the shares as being recorded in the Custodian’s name on behalf of the Portfolios will be deemed custody for purposes hereof.

Upon receipt of Proper Instructions (as such term is defined in Section 7 hereof), the Custodian shall on behalf of the applicable Portfolio(s) from time to time employ one or more sub-custodians located in the United States, but only as duly authorized by the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the “Board”) on behalf of the applicable Portfolio(s), and provided that the Custodian shall have no more or less responsibility or liability to any Fund on account of any actions or omissions of any sub-custodian so employed than any such sub-custodian has to the Custodian. The Custodian may place and maintain the Fund’s foreign securities with foreign banking institution sub-custodians employed by the Custodian and/or foreign securities depositories, all as designated in Schedule A and Schedule B attached hereto, but only in accordance with the applicable provisions of Sections 3 and 4 hereof.

Such monies shall be deposited by the Custodian in its capacity as Custodian and shall be withdrawable by the Custodian only in that capacity.

SECTION 2.5 COLLECTION OF INCOME. Except with respect to Portfolio property released and delivered pursuant to Section 2.2(15) or purchased pursuant to Section 2.6(7), and subject to the provisions of Section 2.3, the Custodian shall collect on a timely basis all income and other payments with respect to registered domestic securities held hereunder to which each Portfolio shall be entitled either by law or pursuant to custom in the securities business, and shall collect on a timely basis all income and other payments with respect to

The Custodian shall provide to the Board, or its designee, the information with respect to custody and settlement practices in countries in which the Custodian employs a Foreign Sub-Custodian described on Schedule C hereto at the time or times set forth on such Schedule. The Custodian may revise Schedule C from time to time, provided that no such revision shall result in the Board, or its designee, being provided with substantively less information than had been previously provided hereunder.

SECTION 4.5. REGISTRATION OF FOREIGN SECURITIES. The foreign securities maintained in the custody of a Foreign Sub-Custodian (other than bearer securities) shall be registered in the name of the applicable Portfolio or in the name of the Custodian or in the name of any Foreign Sub-Custodian or in the name of any nominee of the foregoing, and the applicable Fund on behalf of such Portfolio agrees to hold any such nominee harmless from any liability as a holder of record of such foreign securities except to the extent that such liability results from the negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of the nominee. The Custodian or a Foreign Sub-Custodian shall not be obligated to accept securities on behalf of a Portfolio under the terms of this Agreement unless the form of such securities and the manner in which they are delivered are in accordance with reasonable market practice.

SECTION 4.6 BANK ACCOUNTS. The Custodian shall identify on its books as belonging to the Fund on behalf of the applicable Portfolio cash (including cash denominated in foreign currencies) deposited with the Custodian. Where the Custodian is unable to maintain, or market practice does not facilitate the maintenance of, cash on the books of the Custodian, a bank account or bank accounts shall be opened and maintained outside the United States on behalf of a Portfolio with a Foreign Sub-Custodian. All accounts referred to in this Section shall be subject only to draft or order by the Custodian (or, if applicable, such Foreign Sub-Custodian) acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to hold cash received by or from or for the account of the Portfolio. Cash maintained on the books of the Custodian (including its branches, subsidiaries and affiliates), regardless of currency denomination, is maintained in bank accounts established under, and subject to the laws of, The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

SECTION 4.7. COLLECTION OF INCOME. The Custodian shall use reasonable commercial efforts to collect all income and other payments with respect to the Foreign Assets held hereunder to which the Portfolios shall be entitled. In the event that extraordinary measures are required to collect such income, the Fund and the Custodian shall consult as to such measures and as to the compensation and expenses of the Custodian relating to such measures. The Custodian shall credit income to the applicable Portfolio as such income is received or in accordance with Custodian’s then current payable date income schedule. Any credit to the Portfolio in advance of receipt may be reversed when the Custodian determines that payment will not occur in due course and the Portfolio may be charged at the Custodian’s applicable rate for time credited. Income on securities loaned other than from the Custodian’s securities lending program shall be credited as received.

SECTION 4.8 SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. With respect to the foreign securities held pursuant to this Section 4, the Custodian shall use reasonable commercial efforts to facilitate the exercise of voting and other shareholder rights, subject always to the laws, regulations and practical constraints that may exist in the country where such securities are issued. The Fund acknowledges that local conditions, including lack of regulation, onerous procedural

obligations, lack of notice and other factors may have the effect of severely limiting the ability of such Fund to exercise shareholder rights.

SECTION 4.9. COMMUNICATIONS RELATING TO FOREIGN SECURITIES. The Custodian shall promptly transmit to the Fund written information with respect to materials received by the Custodian via the Foreign Sub-Custodians from issuers of the foreign securities being held for the account of the Portfolios (including, without limitation, pendency of calls, maturities of foreign securities and expirations of rights in connection therewith). Additionally, when requested by the Funds, the Custodian shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly provide the Funds with timely updates with respect to blocking and unblocking of foreign securities or other property of the Portfolios held by the Custodian via a Foreign Sub-Custodian for the account of the Funds. With respect to tender or exchange offers, the Custodian shall transmit promptly to the Fund written information with respect to materials so received by the Custodian from issuers of the foreign securities whose tender or exchange is sought or from the party (or its agents) making the tender or exchange offer.

Absent negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian, the Custodian shall not be liable for any untimely exercise of any tender, exchange or other right or power in connection with foreign securities or other property of the Portfolios at any time held by it unless (i) the Custodian or the respective Foreign Sub-Custodian is in actual possession or control of such foreign securities or property and (ii) the Custodian receives Proper Instructions with regard to the exercise of any such right or power, and both (i) and (ii) occur at least two business days prior to the date on which the Custodian is to take action to exercise such right or power, including, but not limited to, the date by which the Custodian must provide any necessary instructions or notices to the applicable Foreign Sub-Custodian. The Custodian shall also transmit promptly to the Fund all written information received by the Custodian via the Foreign Sub-Custodians from issuers of the foreign securities being held for the account of the Portfolios regarding any class action or other litigation in connection with Portfolio foreign securities or other assets issued outside the United States and then held, or previously held, during the term of this Agreement by the Custodian via a Foreign Sub-Custodian for the account of the Fund for such Portfolio, including, but not limited to, opt-out notices and proof-of-claim forms.

Additionally, upon receipt of Proper Instructions regarding information necessary for proper filing of shareholder proposals with respect to positions in foreign securities or property held, or previously held, during the term of this Agreement by the Custodian via a Foreign Sub-Custodian for the account of the Funds, the Custodian shall transmit promptly to the applicable Fund for each Portfolio all information and documentation in the Custodian’s possession requested by the Fund. The Fund shall limit such requests to only that information and documentation that is required of shareholders by applicable regulations for the proper filing of shareholder proposals within the applicable jurisdiction. For avoidance of doubt, upon and after the effective date of any termination of this Agreement, with respect to a Fund or its Portfolio(s), as may be applicable, the Custodian shall have no responsibility to so transmit any information under this Section 4.9.

SECTION 4.10. LIABILITY OF FOREIGN SUB-CUSTODIANS. Each agreement pursuant to which the Custodian employs a Foreign Sub-Custodian shall, to the extent possible, require the Foreign Sub-Custodian to exercise reasonable care in the performance of its duties, and to indemnify and hold harmless the Custodian from and against any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim arising out of or in connection with the Foreign Sub-Custodian’s

performance of such obligations. At the Fund’s election, the Fund shall be subrogated on behalf of the Portfolios to the rights of the Custodian with respect to any claims against a Foreign Sub-Custodian as a consequence of any such loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim if and to the extent that the Portfolios have not been made whole for any such loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Foreign Sub-Custodian which is a branch or subsidiary of the Custodian will be held to the standard of care set forth in Section 15 for the Custodian.

SECTION 4.11 TAX LAW. The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability for any obligations now or hereafter imposed on the Fund, the Portfolios or the Custodian as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of the United States or of any state or political subdivision thereof. It shall be the responsibility of the Fund to notify the Custodian of the obligations imposed on such Fund with respect to the Portfolios or the Custodian as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of countries other than those mentioned in the above sentence, including responsibility for withholding and other taxes, assessments or other governmental charges, certifications and governmental reporting. The sole responsibility of the Custodian with regard to such tax law shall be to use reasonable efforts to assist the Fund with respect to any claim for exemption or refund under the tax law of countries for which such Fund has provided such information.

SECTION 4.12. ACCESS OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS OF THE FUND. Upon request of the Fund, the Custodian will use commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for the independent accountants of the Fund to be afforded access to the books and records of any foreign banking institution employed as a Foreign Sub-Custodian insofar as such books and records related to the performance of such foreign banking institution under its contract with the Custodian.

SECTION 5. CONTRACTUAL SETTLEMENT SERVICES (PURCHASE / SALES)

SECTION 5.1 The Custodian shall, in accordance with the terms set out in this section, debit or credit the appropriate cash account of each Portfolio in connection with (i) the purchase of securities for such Portfolio, and (ii) proceeds of the sale of securities held on behalf of such Portfolio, on a contractual settlement basis.

SECTION 5.2 The services described above (the “Contractual Settlement Services”) shall be provided for such instruments and in such markets as the Custodian may advise from time to time. The Custodian may terminate or suspend any part of the provision of the Contractual Settlement Services under this Agreement at its sole discretion immediately upon notice to the Fund on behalf of each Portfolio, including, without limitation, in the event of: (i) nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, acts of war, revolution, riots or terrorism, interruption, suspension or restriction of trading on or the closure of any securities market, power or other mechanical or technological failures or interruptions, computer viruses or communications disruptions, work stoppages, labor strikes, natural disasters, or similar events affecting settlement; (ii) any disorder in markets; or (iii) other changed external business circumstances affecting markets or the Fund.

SECTION 5.3 The consideration payable in connection with a purchase transaction shall be debited from the appropriate cash account of the Portfolio as of the time and date that monies would ordinarily be required to settle such transaction in the applicable market. The Custodian shall promptly recredit such amount at the time that the Portfolio or the Fund

notifies the Custodian by Proper Instruction that such transaction has been canceled.

SECTION 5.4 With respect to the settlement of a sale of securities, a provisional credit of an amount equal to the net sale price for the transaction (the “Settlement Amount”) shall be made to the account of the Portfolio as if the Settlement Amount had been received as of the close of business on the date that monies would ordinarily be available in good funds in the applicable market. Such provisional credit will be conditioned upon (i) the Custodian having received Proper Instructions with respect to, or reasonable notice of, the transaction, as applicable and (ii) the Custodian or its agents having possession of the asset(s) (which shall exclude assets subject to any third party lending arrangement entered into by a Portfolio) associated with the transaction in good deliverable form and not being aware of any facts which would lead them to believe that the transaction will not settle in the time period ordinarily applicable to such transactions in the applicable market.

SECTION 5.5 The Custodian shall have the right to reverse any provisional credit or debit given in connection with the Contractual Settlement Services at any time when the Custodian believes, in its reasonable judgment, that such transaction will not settle in accordance with its terms or amounts due pursuant thereto will not be collectable or where the Custodian has not been provided Proper Instructions with respect thereto, as applicable, and the Portfolio shall be responsible for any reasonable costs or liabilities resulting from such reversal. Upon such reversal, a sum equal to the credited or debited amount shall become immediately payable by the Portfolio to the Custodian and may be debited from any cash account held for benefit of the Portfolio.

SECTION 5.6 In the event that the Custodian is unable to debit an account of the Portfolio, and the Portfolio fails to pay any amount due to the Custodian at the time such amount becomes payable in accordance with this Agreement, (i) the Custodian may charge the Portfolio for reasonable costs and expenses associated with providing the provisional credit, including, without limitation, the reasonable cost of funds associated therewith, (ii) the amount of any accrued dividends, interest and other distributions with respect to assets associated with such transaction may be set off against the credited amount, (iii) the provisional credit and any such costs and expenses shall be considered an advance of cash for purposes of the Agreement and (iv) the Custodian shall have the right to setoff against any property and the discretion to sell, exchange, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of any property at any time held for the account of the Portfolio to the full extent necessary for the Custodian to make itself whole.

SECTION 5A. SPECIAL SUB-CUSTODIANS

Upon receipt of Special Instructions (as such term is defined in Section 7 hereof), the Custodian shall, on behalf of one or more Portfolios, appoint one or more banks, trust companies or other entities designated in such Special Instructions to act as a sub-custodian for the purposes of effecting such transaction(s) as may be designated by the Fund in Special Instructions. Each such designated sub-custodian is referred to herein as a “Special Sub-Custodian.” Each such duly appointed Special Sub-Custodian shall be listed on Schedule D hereto, as it may be amended from time to time by the Fund, with the acknowledgment of the Custodian. In connection with the appointment of any Special Sub-Custodian, and in accordance with Special Instructions, the Custodian shall enter into a sub-custodian agreement with the Fund and the Special Sub-Custodian in form and substance approved by such Fund, provided that such agreement shall in all events comply with the provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder and the terms and provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 6. PAYMENTS FOR SALES, REPURCHASES OR REDEMPTIONS OF SHARES

The Custodian shall receive from the distributor for the Shares or from the Transfer Agent and deposit into the account of the appropriate Portfolio such payments as are received for Shares thereof issued or sold from time to time by the Fund. The Custodian will provide timely notification to the Fund on behalf of each such Portfolio and the Transfer Agent of any receipt by it of payments for Shares of such Portfolio.

From such funds as may be available for the purpose, the Custodian shall, upon receipt of instructions from the Transfer Agent, make funds available for payment to holders of Shares who have delivered to the Transfer Agent a request for redemption or repurchase of their Shares. In connection with the redemption or repurchase of Shares, the Custodian is authorized upon receipt of instructions from the Transfer Agent to wire funds to or through a commercial bank designated by the redeeming shareholders. In connection with the redemption or repurchase of Shares, the Custodian shall honor checks drawn on the Custodian by a holder of Shares, which checks have been furnished by the Fund to the holder of Shares, when presented to the Custodian in accordance with such procedures and controls as are mutually agreed upon from time to time between such Fund and the Custodian.

SECTION 7. PROPER INSTRUCTIONS AND SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

“Proper Instructions” (excluding “Free of Payment” delivery of Fund securities), which may also be “continuing instructions,” as such term is used throughout this Agreement, shall mean instructions received by the Custodian from the Fund or the Fund’s duly authorized investment manager or investment adviser, or a person or entity duly authorized by either of them.

Oral instructions (pursuant to procedures agreed to with Custodian in writing signed by the Fund’s Treasurer) will be considered Proper Instructions if the Custodian reasonably believes them to have been given by a person authorized to provide such instructions with respect to the transaction involved. For purposes of this Section, Proper Instructions shall include instructions received by the Custodian pursuant to any multi-party agreement which requires a segregated asset account in accordance with Section 2.10 hereof.

“Proper Instructions--Free of Payment Delivery of Fund Securities (“Free of Payment”),” which may also be “continuing instructions,” as such term is used throughout this Agreement, shall mean instructions received by the Custodian from the Fund or the Fund’s duly authorized investment manager or investment adviser, or a person or entity duly authorized by either of them. Such instructions must be in writing manually signed by two authorized persons whose authority for authorizing “free of payment” instructions is specifically set forth in a writing signed by the Treasurer and an Executive Vice President or higher of the Fund and by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary as certified under the corporate seal.

“Special Instructions,” as such term is used throughout this Agreement, means Proper

Instructions countersigned or confirmed in writing by the Treasurer or any Assistant Treasurer of the Fund or any other person designated in writing by the Treasurer of such Fund, which countersignature or confirmation shall be (a) included on the same instrument containing the Proper Instructions or on a separate instrument clearly relating thereto and (b) delivered by hand, by facsimile transmission, or in such other manner as the Fund and the Custodian agree in writing.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, and from time to time thereafter, as appropriate, the Fund shall deliver to the Custodian, duly certified by such Fund’s Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer, and by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary as certified under the corporate seal (except for Free of Payment as specified above) a certificate setting forth: (i) the names, titles, signatures and scope of authority of all persons authorized to give Proper Instructions or any other notice, request, direction, instruction, certificate or instrument on behalf of the Fund; and (ii) the names, titles and signatures of those persons authorized to give Special Instructions. Such certificate may be accepted and relied upon by the Custodian as conclusive evidence of the facts set forth therein and shall be considered to be in full force and effect until receipt by the Custodian of a similar certificate to the contrary.

SECTION 8. EVIDENCE OF AUTHORITY

The Custodian shall be protected in acting upon any instructions, notice, request, consent, certificate or other instrument or paper reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been properly executed by or on behalf of the Fund. The Custodian may receive and accept a copy of a resolution certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Fund as conclusive evidence (a) of the authority of any person to act in accordance with such resolution or (b) of any determination or of any action by the Board as described in such resolution, and such resolution may be considered as in full force and effect until receipt by the Custodian of written notice to the contrary.

	2)	surrender securities in temporary form for securities in definitive form;

	3)	endorse for collection, in the name of the Portfolio, checks, drafts and other negotiable instruments; and

	4)	in general, attend to all non-discretionary details in connection with the sale, exchange, substitution, purchase, transfer and other dealings with the securities and property of the Portfolio, except as otherwise directed by the Board.


SECTION 10.	DUTIES OF CUSTODIAN WITH RESPECT TO THE BOOKS OF ACCOUNT AND CALCULATION OF NET ASSET VALUE AND NET INCOME

The Custodian shall cooperate with and promptly supply necessary information to the entity or entities appointed by the Board to keep the books of account of each Portfolio and/or compute the net asset value per Share of the outstanding Shares. The Fund acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to investments maintained with the Underlying Transfer Agent, the Underlying Transfer Agent is the sole source of information on the number of shares of a fund held by it on behalf of a Portfolio and that the Custodian has the right to rely on holdings information furnished by the Underlying Transfer Agent to the Custodian in performing its duties under this Agreement, including without limitation, the duties set forth in this Section 10 and in Section 11 hereof; provided, however, that the Custodian shall be obligated to reconcile information as to purchases and sales of Underlying Shares contained in trade instructions and confirmations received by the Custodian and to report promptly any discrepancies to the Underlying Transfer Agent.


SECTION 11.	RECORDS

SECTION 11.1 The Custodian shall with respect to each Portfolio create and maintain all records relating to its activities and obligations under this Agreement in such manner as will meet the obligations of the Fund under the 1940 Act, with particular attention to Section 31 thereof and Rules 31a-1 and 31a-2 thereunder. The Custodian acknowledges that all such accounts and records are the sole and exclusive property of the Fund, shall at all times during the normal business hours of the Custodian be open for inspection by duly authorized officers, employees or agents of the Fund and the Fund’s independent registered public accounting firm (“Auditor”), employees and agents of the SEC and any state securities authority, and will otherwise be delivered or made available to the Fund for inspection or reproduction within a reasonable period of time, in each case upon the demand of the Fund. The Custodian shall, at the Fund’s request (including, but not limited to requests in connection with the preparation of Forms N-CSR and N-Q), supply the Fund with a tabulation of securities owned by each Portfolio and held by the Custodian and shall, when requested to do so by the Fund and for such compensation as shall be agreed upon between the Fund and the Custodian, include certificate numbers in such tabulations. The Fund acknowledges that, in creating and maintaining the records as set forth herein with respect to Portfolio property released and delivered pursuant to Section 2.2(15), or purchased pursuant to Section 2.6(7) hereof, the Custodian is authorized and instructed to rely upon information provided to it by the Fund, the Fund’s counterparty(ies), or the agents of either of them.

SECTION 11.2 The Fund and the Custodian shall comply with the reasonable requests of the other party for information necessary to the requestor’s performance of its duties in connection with this Agreement, or compliance with applicable law, including, without limitation, requests by the Fund’s Auditor or review of books and records of the Fund in connection with this Agreement.

SECTION 11.3 In addition to the obligations of Section 11.1, upon request of the Fund (which shall include reasonable advance notice), Custodian shall grant reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the Fund’s duly authorized officers, employees, investment manager or adviser, agents and Auditor (with such officers, employees, agents and Auditor all being subject to compliance with Custodian’s confidentiality and security policies and procedures), to Custodian’s business facilities and personnel to the extent such facilities and

personnel are used in connection with Custodian’s services to be provided hereunder, for the purposes of: (i) conducting a due diligence review of Custodian’s technology systems to be used in providing custodial services; (ii) performing an audit in accordance with the Fund’s own business continuity program(s); (iii) complying with regulatory requirements applicable to the Fund; and (iv) conducting an annual or other periodic compliance review or audit by the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer(s) (“CCO”).

SECTION 11.4 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Custodian reserves the right to impose reasonable limitations on the number, frequency, timing and scope of audits and inspections requested by the Fund or its Auditor so as to prevent or minimize any potential impairment or disruption of its operations, distraction of its personnel or breaches of security, policies, confidentiality or regulatory limitations or requirements.

SECTION 12. OPINION OF FUND’S INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT

The Custodian shall take all reasonable action, as the Fund with respect to a Portfolio may from time to time request, to obtain from year to year favorable opinions from the Fund’s Auditor with respect to its activities hereunder in connection with the preparation of the Fund’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A, Form N-2 or Form N-3, as applicable, Form N-CSR, Form N-SAR or other annual or periodic reports to the SEC and with respect to any other requirements thereof.

SECTION 13. REPORTS TO FUND BY INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Custodian shall provide the Fund, on behalf of each of the Portfolios, a SAS 70 Level II report by independent registered public accounting firms on the accounting system, internal accounting control and procedures for safeguarding securities, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, including securities deposited and/or maintained in a U.S. Securities System or a Foreign Securities System (either, a “Securities System”), relating to the services provided by the Custodian under this Agreement. Such reports shall be of sufficient scope and in sufficient detail as may reasonably be required by the Fund to provide reasonable assurance that any material inadequacies would be disclosed by such examination, and, if there are no such inadequacies, the reports shall so state. Such SAS 70 report shall be provided at least once a year, or at such greater frequency as such SAS 70 report is prepared. Custodian shall notify the Fund of any such change in frequency.

SECTION 14. COMPENSATION OF CUSTODIAN

In consideration for its services hereunder, the Custodian shall be paid the compensation set forth in a separate fee schedule, incorporated herein by reference, as may be amended by mutual consent of the parties from time to time.

SECTION 15. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF CUSTODIAN; STANDARD OF CARE

SECTION 15.1 STANDARD OF CARE. The Custodian shall be held to the exercise of reasonable care in carrying out the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Custodian is not responsible or liable for, and the Fund will promptly indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against, any and all direct costs, expenses, losses, damages, charges, reasonable counsel fees, payments and liabilities that are incurred by the Custodian or for which the Custodian is held to be liable, arising out of or attributable to the Custodian’s

entrance into this Agreement, as a result of the Custodian following any Proper Instructions, or as a result of any other action or inaction of the Custodian in the performance of its duties under this Agreement; and provided, further, that such indemnity and hold harmless obligation shall not apply to any costs, expenses, losses, damages, charges, reasonable counsel fees, payments or liabilities to the extent arising out of the Custodian’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

Custodian shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the Fund) on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice. So long as and to the extent that the Custodian exercises reasonable care, the Custodian shall not be responsible for the title, validity or genuineness of any property or evidence of title thereto received by it or delivered by it pursuant to this Agreement and shall be held harmless in acting upon any notice, request, consent, certificate or other instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to be signed by the proper party or parties, including any futures commission merchant acting pursuant to the terms of a three-party futures or options agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (but subject to the provisions of the second paragraph of this Section 15.1 and the provisions of Section 15.2 below), and except with respect to Foreign Sub-Custodians in certain countries set forth on a separate written schedule (collectively, the “Non-Standard Countries”), incorporated herein by reference, as such schedule may be amended by mutual consent of the parties from time to time, Custodian shall be liable to the Fund for any loss which shall occur as the result of the failure of the Custodian or a Foreign Sub-Custodian to exercise reasonable care and diligence with respect to the safekeeping of the Fund’s assets to the same extent that the Custodian would be liable to the Fund if the Custodian were holding such assets in New York; provided, however, that regardless of whether assets are maintained in the custody of a Foreign Sub-Custodian or a Foreign Securities System, the Custodian shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim resulting from or caused by nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, acts of war, revolution, riots or terrorism where the Foreign Sub-Custodian has otherwise acted with reasonable care; and provided, further, that Custodian shall not be responsible for the insolvency of a Foreign Sub-Custodian which is not an affiliate or subsidiary of Custodian unless such appointment was made negligently or in bad faith. As to the Foreign Sub-Custodians employed in the Non-Standard Countries listed on such separate written schedule from time to time, the Custodian shall have no more or less responsibility or liability to the Fund on account of any actions or omissions of any such Foreign Sub-Custodian so employed than such Foreign Sub-Custodian has to the Custodian; provided, however, that the contract or agreement under which State Street employs such Foreign Sub-Custodian satisfies the standard set forth in Section 3.2.3. (b) of this Agreement. If Custodian reasonably and in good faith determines that any country should be deleted from or added to such separate written schedule due to a change in circumstances, Custodian shall give the Fund written notice thereof, and such separate written schedule shall be deemed to be amended, without having to amend this Agreement, upon mutual consent of the parties and the Fund agrees that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. At the request of the Fund, provided that each such request is reasonable and made in good faith, Custodian agrees to reasonably and in good faith re-evaluate the prevailing circumstances in the countries then listed on such separate written schedule to determine whether any such country should be removed from such schedule.

SECTION 15.2 OTHER LIMITATIONS OF CUSTODIAN’S LIABILITY. Except as may arise from the Custodian’s own negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or the negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of a sub-custodian, nominee or agent, the Custodian shall be without liability to the Fund for any loss, liability, claim or expense resulting from or caused by: (i) events or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Custodian or any sub-custodian or Securities System or any agent or nominee of any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the interruption, suspension or restriction of trading on or the closure of any securities market, power or other mechanical or technological failures or interruptions, computer viruses or communications disruptions, work stoppages, labor strikes, natural disasters, or other similar events or acts or (ii) errors by any Fund or its duly authorized investment manager or investment adviser in their instructions to the Custodian provided such instructions have been in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) the insolvency of or acts or omissions by a Securities System; (iv) any act or omission of a Special Sub-Custodian including, without limitation, reliance on reports prepared by a Special Sub-Custodian; (v) any delay or failure of any broker, agent or intermediary, central bank or other commercially prevalent payment or clearing system to deliver to the Custodian’s sub-custodian or agent securities purchased or in the remittance or payment made in connection with securities sold; (vi) any delay or failure of any company, corporation, or other body in charge of registering or transferring securities in the name of the Custodian, any Fund, the Custodian’s sub-custodians, nominees or agents or any consequential losses arising out of such delay or failure to transfer such securities including non-receipt of bonus, dividends and rights and other accretions or benefits; (vii) delays or inability to perform its duties due to any disorder in market infrastructure with respect to any particular security or Securities System; and (viii) any provision of any present or future law or regulation or order of the United States of America, or any state thereof, or any other country, or political subdivision thereof or of any court of competent jurisdiction.

If the Fund on behalf of a Portfolio requires the Custodian to take any action with respect to securities, which action involves the payment of money or which action may, in the reasonable opinion of the Custodian, result in the Custodian or its nominee assigned to the Fund or the Portfolio being liable for the payment of money or incurring liability of some other form, such Fund on behalf of the Portfolio, as a prerequisite to requiring the Custodian to take such action, shall provide reasonable indemnity to the Custodian in an amount and form mutually agreed to between Custodian and the Fund.

SECTION 15.3 LIEN ON ASSETS. If the Fund on behalf of a Portfolio requires the Custodian, its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents, to advance cash or securities for any purpose (including but not limited to securities settlements, foreign exchange contracts and assumed settlement) or in the event that the Custodian or its nominee shall incur or be assessed any taxes, charges, expenses, assessments, claims or liabilities in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except such as may arise from its or its nominee’s own negligent action, negligent failure to act, bad faith, or willful misconduct, any property at any time held for the account of the applicable Portfolio shall be security therefor and should the Fund fail to repay the Custodian promptly, the Custodian shall be entitled to utilize available cash and to dispose of such Portfolio’s assets to the extent necessary to obtain reimbursement.

SECTION 15.4 INDEMNIFICATION OF THE FUND BY CUSTODIAN. Custodian shall promptly indemnify and hold the Fund harmless from and against any and all direct costs, expenses, losses, damages, charges, reasonable counsel fees, payments and liabilities that are incurred by the Fund or for which the Fund is held to be liable, to the extent arising out of or attributable

to the failure of Custodian to exercise the standard of care set forth in Section 15.1 above; provided, however, that such indemnity and hold harmless shall not apply to any costs, expenses, losses, damages, charges, reasonable counsel fees, payments or liabilities to the extent arising out of the Fund’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

SECTION 15.5 INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES. Promptly after receipt by the Fund or Custodian of notice of a matter that may be covered under the indemnification provisions of Section 15.1 or 15.4, as applicable (“Claim”), such party (“Claimant”) shall notify the other (“Indemnitor”); provided, however, that a delay by Claimant in notifying Indemnitor of a Claim shall not permit Indemnitor to avoid its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent Indemnitor is actually prejudiced by such delay. The Claimant shall provide the Indemnitor with such complete details and pleadings as are requested by the Indemnitor concerning the Claim and shall cooperate fully and in good faith with the Indemnitor in investigating and defending the Claim. The Indemnitor will be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any liability subject to the indemnifications provided in Section 15.1 or 15.4, as applicable. In the event the Indemnitor elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel, the Claimant and/or any of its affiliated persons named as defendant or defendants in the suit may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless the Indemnitor shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel. The Claimant shall in no event confess any claim or settle or make any compromise in any case in which the Indemnitor may be required to indemnify the Claimant except with the Indemnitor’s prior written consent.

SECTION 15.6. LIMITATION OF DAMAGES. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, none of the parties hereto shall be liable for any indirect, consequential, incidental, exemplary, punitive or special damages, even if such party has been apprised of the likelihood of such damages occurring.

SECTION 16. EFFECTIVE PERIOD, TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT

SECTION 16.1 The initial term of this Agreement is for a period of one (1) year from the date hereof. Thereafter, either Fund or Custodian may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other party that is received not less than 120 days prior to the date upon which such termination will take effect, in the case of termination by the Custodian, and not less than 60 days prior to the date upon which such termination will take effect, in the case of termination by the Fund. This Agreement may be amended at any time by mutual agreement of the parties hereto; provided, however, that neither party shall amend or terminate this Agreement in contravention of any applicable federal or state regulations, or, in the case of the Fund, any provision of such Fund’s Governing Documents; and further provided, that the Fund on behalf of one or more of the Portfolios may at any time by action of its Board (i) substitute another bank or trust company for the Custodian by giving notice as described above to the Custodian, or (ii) immediately terminate this Agreement in the event of the appointment of a conservator or receiver for the Custodian by the Comptroller of the Currency or upon the happening of a like event at the direction of an appropriate regulatory agency or court of competent jurisdiction.

SECTION 16.2 Termination of this Agreement with respect to any one particular Fund or Portfolio shall in no way affect the rights and duties under this Agreement with respect to any other Fund or Portfolio.

SECTION 16.3 Upon termination of the Agreement, the Custodian shall receive such compensation as may be due as of the date of such termination (unless it is subject to reasonable dispute) and shall likewise reimburse the Custodian for its reasonable costs, expenses and disbursements associated with its provision of services hereunder to the Fund or applicable Portfolios.

SECTION 17. SUCCESSOR CUSTODIAN

SECTION 17.1 If a successor custodian for one or more Portfolios shall be appointed by the Board, the Custodian shall, upon termination and receipt of Proper Instructions, deliver to such successor custodian at the office of the Custodian, duly endorsed and in the form for transfer, all securities of each applicable Portfolio then held by it hereunder and shall transfer to an account of the successor custodian all of the securities of each such Portfolio held in a Securities System or at the Underlying Transfer Agent.

SECTION 17.2 If no such successor custodian shall be appointed, the Custodian shall, in like manner, upon receipt of Proper Instructions, deliver at the office of the Custodian and transfer such securities, funds and other properties in accordance with such resolution.

SECTION 17.3 In the event that no Proper Instructions designating a successor custodian or alternative arrangements shall have been delivered to the Custodian on or before the date when such termination shall become effective, then the Custodian shall have the right to deliver to a bank or trust company, which is a “bank” as defined in the 1940 Act, doing business in Boston, Massachusetts or New York, New York, of its own selection, having an aggregate capital, surplus, and undivided profits, as shown by its last published report, of not less than $25,000,000, all securities, funds and other properties held by the Custodian on behalf of each applicable Portfolio and all instruments held by the Custodian relative thereto and all other property held by it under this Agreement on behalf of each applicable Portfolio, and to transfer to an account of such successor custodian all of the securities of each such Portfolio held in any Securities System or at the Underlying Transfer Agent. Thereafter, such bank or trust company shall be the successor of the Custodian under this Agreement.

SECTION 17.4 In the event that securities, funds and other properties remain in the possession of the Custodian after the date of termination hereof owing to failure of the Fund to provide Proper Instructions as aforesaid, the Custodian shall be entitled to fair compensation for its services during such period as the Custodian retains possession of such securities, funds and other properties and the provisions of this Agreement relating to the duties and obligations of the Custodian shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 18.10 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts (including facsimile counterparts), each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts, when taken together, shall constitute one and the same original Agreement.

SECTION 18.11 SEVERABILITY. If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired.

SECTION 18.12 REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS. This Agreement and all schedules, addenda, exhibits, attachments and amendments hereto may be reproduced by any photographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties hereto all/each agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, provided that such reproduction is a true and accurate representation of the original. In addition, any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence, provided that it is a true and accurate representation of the original.

SECTION 18.13 SHAREHOLDER COMMUNICATIONS ELECTION. SEC Rule 14b-2 under the Exchange Act requires banks which hold securities for the account of customers to respond to requests by issuers of securities for the names, addresses and holdings of beneficial owners of securities of that issuer held by the bank unless the beneficial owner has expressly objected to disclosure of this information. In order to comply with the rule, the Custodian needs the Fund to indicate whether it authorizes the Custodian to provide such Fund’s name, address, and share position to requesting companies whose securities the Fund owns. If the Fund tells the Custodian “no,” the Custodian will not provide this information to requesting companies. If the Fund tells the Custodian “yes” or does not check either “yes” or “no” below, the Custodian is

required by the rule to treat the Fund as consenting to disclosure of this information for all securities owned by the Fund or any funds or accounts established by the Fund. For the Fund’s protection, the Rule prohibits the requesting company from using the Fund’s name and address for any purpose other than corporate communications. Please indicate below whether the Fund consents or objects by checking one of the alternatives below.

YES [ ]		The Custodian is authorized to release the Fund’s name, address, and share
		positions.

NO [X]		The Custodian is not authorized to release the Fund’s name, address, and share
		positions.

SECTION 18.14 BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLAN. Custodian shall maintain a comprehensive business continuity plan that is commercially reasonable and complies with applicable law, rules and regulations. Custodian will provide an executive summary of such plan upon reasonable request of the Fund. Custodian will test the adequacy of its business continuity plan at least annually. In the event of business disruption that materially impacts Custodian’s provision of service under this Agreement, Custodian will notify the Fund of the disruption and the steps being taken in response.

SECTION 18.15. NO LIABILITY OF SHAREHOLDERS AND TRUSTEES. This Agreement is executed by the Trustees of the Fund, not individually, but rather in their capacity as Trustees under the Declaration of Trust of the Fund, as amended. None of the shareholders, Trustees, officers, employees, or agents of the Fund shall be personally bound or liable under this Agreement, nor shall resort be had to their private property for the satisfaction of any obligation or claim hereunder but only to the property of the Fund and, if the obligation or claim relates to the property held by the Fund for the benefit of one or more but fewer than all Portfolios, then only to the property held for the benefit of the affected Portfolio or Portfolios.

SECTION 18.16 SURVIVAL. The indemnification and other provisions of Section 15 and 18.8.2 shall survive the expiration, termination or cancellation of this Agreement.
