For and in consideration of the mutual terms and agreements set forth herein and

modify this Memorandum of Agreement prior to the Expiration Date only by mutual written
consent. Distributor will not have any right to reimbursement of any amount so waived
or limited.
For the Contractual Waivers/Limits, Distributor agrees to review the then-current
waivers/limits for each class of each Fund listed on Exhibit “A” on a date prior to the
Expiration Date to determine whether such waivers/limits should be amended, continued
or terminated. The waivers/limits will expire upon the Expiration Date unless the
Trusts and Distributor have agreed to continue them. Exhibit “A” will be amended to
reflect any such agreement.
It is expressly agreed that the obligations of the Trusts hereunder shall not be
binding upon any of the Trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees
of the Trusts personally, but shall only bind the assets and property of the Funds, as
provided in each Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust. The execution and
delivery of this Memorandum of Agreement have been authorized by the Trustees of each
Trust, and this Memorandum of Agreement has been executed and delivered by an
authorized officer of each Trust acting as such; neither such authorization by such

but shall bind only the assets and property of the Funds, as provided in each Trust’s
Agreement and Declaration of Trust.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trusts and Distributor have entered into this Memorandum
of Agreement as of the date first above written.
