A. TERMS OF APPOINTMENT/DUTIES OF PRICE ASSOCIATES
-----------------------------------------------
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Fund hereby

utilization of such pricing valuation sources and/or pricing services as
determined by the Boards.
Price Associates shall have no liability for any losses or damages incurred by

connection with the audit performed by each Fund's independent accountant, the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the Internal Revenue Service or such other
Federal or state regulatory agencies; and
10. Cooperate with each Fund's independent public accountants and take all
reasonable action in the performance of its obligations under the Agreement to
assure that the necessary information is made available to such accountants for
the expression of their opinion without any qualification as to the scope of
their examination including, but not limited to, their opinion included in each
such Fund's annual report on Form N-SAR and annual amendment to Form N-1A.
B. FEES AND OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSES
-------------------------------
Each Fund shall pay to Price Associates for its Accounting Services hereunder,
fees as set forth in the Schedule attached hereto. In addition, each Fund will
reimburse Price Associates for out-of-pocket expenses such as postage, printed
forms, voice and data transmissions, record retention, disaster recovery, third
party vendors, equipment leases and other similar items as may be agreed upon
between Price Associates and the Fund. Some invoices will contain costs for both
the Funds and other funds serviced by Price Associates. In these cases, a
reasonable allocation methodology will be used to allocate these costs to the
Funds.
C. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTEES OF PRICE ASSOCIATES
--------------------------------------------------
Price Associates represents and warrants to the Fund that:
1. It is a corporation duly organized and existing in good standing under the
laws of Maryland.
2. It is duly qualified to carry on its business in Maryland.
3. It is empowered under applicable laws and by its charter and By-Laws to
enter into and perform this Agreement.
4. All requisite corporate proceedings have been taken to authorize it to
enter into and perform this Agreement.
5. It has, and will continue to have, access to the necessary facilities,
equipment and personnel to perform its duties and obligations under this
Agreement.
D. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE FUND
------------------------------------------
The Fund represents and warrants to Price Associates that:
1. It is a corporation or business trust, as the case may be, duly organized
and existing and in good standing under the laws of Maryland or Massachusetts,
as the case may be.
2. It is empowered under applicable laws and by its Articles of Incorporation
or Declaration of Trust, as the case may be, and By-Laws have been taken to
authorize it to enter into and perform this Agreement.
3. All proceedings required by said Articles of Incorporation or Declaration
of Trust, as the case may be, and By-Laws have been taken to authorize it to
enter into and perform this Agreement.
E. OWNERSHIP OF SOFTWARE AND RELATED MATERIAL
------------------------------------------
All computer programs, magnetic tapes, written procedures, and similar items
purchased and/or developed and used by Price Associates in performance of this
Agreement shall be the property of Price Associates and will not become the
property of the Funds.
F. QUALITY SERVICE STANDARDS
-------------------------
Price Associates and the Fund may, from time to time, agree to certain quality
service standards, with respect to Price Associates' services hereunder.
G. STANDARD OF CARE/INDEMNIFICATION
--------------------------------
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:
1. Where a pricing error results in loss or dilution to a Fund of less than
$10,000, the determination of liability for the error will be made by Price
Associates. Where a pricing error results in loss or dilution to a Fund of
$10,000 or more but less than $100,000, liability for the error will be resolved
through negotiations between Fund Counsel and Price Associates. Where a pricing
error results in loss or dilution to a Fund of the lesser of 1/2 of 1% of NAV or
$100,000 or more, the error will be promptly reported to the Board of Directors
of the Fund (unless the Fund is fully
compensated for the loss or dilution), provided that final settlement with
respect to such errors will not be made until approved by the Board of Directors
of the Fund. A summary of all pricing errors and their effect on the Funds will
be reported to the Funds? Audit Committee on an annual basis. In determining the
liability of Price Associates for a pricing error, an error or omission will not
be deemed to constitute negligence when it is determined that:
o Price Associates had in place "appropriate procedures and an adequate
system of internal controls;"
o the employee responsible for the error or omission had been reasonably
trained and was being appropriately monitored; and
o the error or omission did not result from wanton or reckless conduct on the
part of the employee.
It is understood that Price Associates is not obligated to have in place
separate procedures to prevent each and every conceivable type of error or
omission. The term "appropriate procedures and adequate system of internal
controls" shall mean procedures and controls reasonably designed to prevent and
detect errors and omissions. In determining the reasonableness of such
procedures and controls, weight will be given to such factors as are
appropriate, including the prior occurrence of any similar errors or omissions,
when such procedures and controls were in place and fund accounting industry
standards in place at the time of the error.
2. The Fund shall indemnify and hold Price Associates harmless from and
against all losses, costs, damages, claims, actions, and expenses, including
reasonable expenses for legal counsel, incurred by Price Associates resulting
from: (i) any action or omission by Price Associates or its agents or
subcontractors in the performance of their duties hereunder; (ii) Price
Associates acting upon instructions believed by it to have been executed by a
duly authorized officer of the Fund; or (iii) Price Associates acting upon
information provided by the Fund in form and under policies
agreed to by Price Associates and the Fund. Price Associates shall not be
entitled to such indemnification in respect of actions or omissions constituting
negligence or willful misconduct of Price Associates or where Price Associates
has not exercised reasonable care in selecting or monitoring the performance of
its agents or subcontractors.
3. Price Associates shall indemnify and hold harmless the Fund from all
losses, costs, damages, claims, actions and expenses, including reasonable
expenses for legal counsel, incurred by the Fund resulting from the negligence
or willful misconduct of Price Associates or which result from Price Associates'
failure to exercise reasonable care in selecting or monitoring the performance
of its agents or subcontractors. The Fund shall not be entitled to such
indemnification with respect to actions or omissions constituting negligence or
willful misconduct of such Fund or its agents or subcontractors; unless such
negligence or misconduct is attributable to Price Associates.
4. In the event either party is unable to perform its obligations under the
terms of this Agreement because of acts of God, strikes or other causes
reasonably beyond its control, such party shall not be liable to the other party
for any loss, cost, damage, claim, action or expense resulting from such failure
to perform or otherwise from such causes.
5. In order that the indemnification provisions contained in this Article G
shall apply, upon the assertion of a claim for which either party may be
required to indemnify the other, the party seeking indemnification shall
promptly notify the other party of such assertion, and shall keep the other
party advised with respect to all developments concerning such claim. The party
who may be required to indemnify shall have the option to participate with the
party seeking indemnification in the defense of such claim, or to defend against
said claim in its own name or in the name of the other party. The party seeking
indemnification shall in no case confess any claim or make any compromise in any
case in which the other party may be required to indemnify it except with the
other party's prior written consent.
6. Neither party to this Agreement shall be liable to the other party for
consequential damages under any provision of this Agreement.
H. DUAL INTERESTS
--------------
It is understood that some person or persons may be directors, officers, or
shareholders of both the Fund and Price Associates (including Price Associates'
affiliates), and that the existence of any such dual interest shall not affect
the validity of this Agreement or of any transactions hereunder except as
otherwise provided by a specific provision of applicable law.
I. DOCUMENTATION
-------------
As requested by Price Associates, the Fund shall promptly furnish to Price
Associates such documents as it may reasonably request and as are necessary for
Price Associates to carry out its responsibilities hereunder.
J. RECORDKEEPING/CONFIDENTIALITY
-----------------------------
1. Price Associates shall keep records relating to the services to be
performed hereunder, in the form and manner as it may deem advisable, provided
that Price Associates shall keep all records in such form and in such manner as
required by applicable law, including the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("THE
ACT") and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("THE '34 ACT").
2. Price Associates and the Fund agree that all books, records, information
and data pertaining to the business of the other party which are exchanged or
received pursuant to the negotiation or the carrying out of this Agreement shall
remain confidential, and shall not be voluntarily disclosed to any other person,
except: (a) after prior notification to and approval in writing by the other
party hereto, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and may not be
withheld where Price Associates or Fund may be exposed to civil or criminal
contempt proceedings for failure to comply; (b) when requested to divulge such
information by duly constituted governmental authorities; or (c) after so
requested by the other party hereto.
K. COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL RULES AND REGULATIONS
--------------------------------------------------
Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and except for the accuracy of
information furnished to the Funds by Price Associates, each Fund assumes full
responsibility for the preparation, contents and distribution of its
prospectuses, and for complying with all applicable requirements of the Act, the
'34 Act, the Securities Act of 1933 (the "33 ACT"), and any laws, rules and
regulations of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Funds.

notice to Price Associates; and by Price Associates, upon three hundred
sixty-five (365) days' writing notice to the Fund.
3. Upon termination hereof, the Fund shall pay to Price Associates such
compensation as may be due as of the date of such termination, and shall
likewise reimburse for out-of-pocket expenses related to its services hereunder.

N. ASSIGNMENT
----------
Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned
either voluntarily or involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise, by either

its obligations set forth hereunder.
