Custodian’s sole responsibility in settling transactions through the Joint Trading Account shall be to receive and deliver securities and monies in accordance with instructions contained in Certificates and Written Instructions and to comply with paragraph 2 of this Agreement.

5.       This Agreement is supplemental to the Custody Agreement between Custodian and each Fund and the assets of each Fund shall be maintained and administered by Custodian subject to the terms and conditions of the Custody Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Custody Agreement of any Fund, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall govern and control.

Compensating Balance Arrangement

The Funds and The Bank of New York have entered into a compensating balance arrangement, which would allow the Funds to compensate the Bank for any overdrafts by maintaining a positive cash balance the next day. Conversely, on any day the Funds maintain a positive balance, they will be allowed to overdraw the account as compensation. In both cases, Federal Reserve requirements, currently 10%, will be assessed. Therefore, all overdrafts must be compensated at 100% of the total and all positive balances will allow for an overdraft of 90% of the total.

Balances for the tax-exempt portfolios will be permitted an open-ended roll forward. The taxable portfolios are closed out on a quarterly basis with no carry-over to the subsequent quarter. At the end of each quarter, the average overdraft will be assessed a fee of 1% above the actual Federal Funds rate at the end of the period. Any average positive balance will receive an earnings credit computed at the daily effective 90 day T-bill rate minus 0.25 bps on the last day of the period. Earnings credits will be offset against the Funds’ safekeeping fees.

Exhibit E

Compensating Balance Arrangement

Each Fund listed below and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Bank”) have entered into a average compensating balance arrangement, which would allow the Funds to compensate the Bank for any overdrafts by maintaining a positive cash balance and conversely, on any day a Fund maintains a positive balance, the respective Fund will be permitted to overdraw the account as compensation.

In each instance, Federal Reserve requirements (currently 10%), will be assessed. Therefore, all overdrafts must be compensated at 100% of the total and all positive balances will allow for an overdraft of up to 90% of the total (unless the positive balance is the result of an error on the part on the Bank, in which case the positive balance would be assessed at 100%). The Funds shall maintain the average compensating balance over quarterly periods (ending March, June, September and December for FGRF, FCRF and FMUTR; and ending February, May, August, and November for AGCR, USTCR and GOTMF). Average balances will be computed at the end of the quarter. Net positive balances will receive an earnings credit computed at the daily effective 90 – day T-Bill rate on the last day of a period. Net negative balances will be charged at the Fed Funds rate plus 1% on the last day of the period. Quarterly net credits or charges will be applied to the safekeeping fees. Credits that exceed the safekeeping fee will be carried over into the next billing period but must be applied in a 12 month cycle; all accumulated unapplied credits will expire in the final quarter of the cycle, i.e. in November or December. However, upon specific request from Fund, Custodian at its discretion may agree to carry forward into the next 12 month cycle any accumulated credits, contingent on their application within a specified time period.

Credits are not redeemable for cash and will expire in the event the relationship with the Funds is terminated.

Exhibit F

PRECIOUS METALS SUPPLEMENT

(Precious Metals Physically Held in the USA)

In addition to the provisions of that certain Global Custody Agreement dated as of June 7, 2005, as amended, pursuant to which the registered investment company, the Federated Market Opportunity Fund, (the “Customer”) has appointed The Bank of New York Mellon, formerly known as The Bank of New York (the “Custodian”) as its custodian of securities and cash and to perform related services (the “Agreement”), the following provisions shall apply to the custody of assets consisting of precious metals.

ARTICLE I

APPOINTMENT OF CUSTODIAN; CUSTODIAL SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED BY SUBCUSTODIAN

1.       Customer hereby appoints the Custodian as custodian to hold and maintain certain property consisting of the metals described in the attached Addendum A (the “Precious Metals”) and which are specified in each authenticated trade instruction sent by the Customer or it’s Authorized Representative to the Custodian.

2.       Custodian hereby accepts appointment as such custodian of Precious Metals and agrees to perform its duties in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Supplement. Customer acknowledges that Custodian shall utilize the services of one or more subcustodians, identified to Customer from time to time (each, for purposes of this Supplement, a “Subcustodian”), to serve as warehouseman of the Precious Metals held hereunder. Precious Metals held through a Subcustodian shall be held subject to the terms and conditions of Custodian’s agreement with such Subcustodian. Custodian at any time may cease utilizing any Subcustodian and/or may replace a Subcustodian with a different Subcustodian. In the event Custodian selects a replacement Subcustodian, Custodian shall not utilize such replacement Subcustodian until after providing Customer with commercially reasonable notice.

ARTICLE II

RESPONSIBILITIES OF CUSTODIAN AND SUBCUSTODIANS

1.       Custodian shall receive, hold and keep the Precious Metals at a secure facility maintained by a Subcustodian which shall be identified to Customer from time to time (the “Secure Facility”).

2.       Custodian shall be responsible for the safekeeping of the Precious Metals in the form and condition in which they are delivered to its Subcustodian acting as its warehouseman. Custodian shall cause the Subcustodian to keep the Precious Metals held for Customer hereunder separately identified and segregated and to maintain records identifying the Precious Metals belonging to Customer.

3.       Custodian shall provide Customer with reporting by a means agreed between the parties detailing Precious Metals received, delivered and held at the Subcustodian. Customer agrees that it shall promptly review all such statements and shall advise Custodian of any error, omission or inaccuracy therein within a commercially reasonable time.

4.       Custodian shall cause the Subcustodian it designates to take delivery of Precious Metals from Customer and to acknowledge receipt from Customer of the Precious Metals. The Subcustodian may, at its option, record certain specifications indicated on the Precious Metals. It is understood and agreed that neither Custodian nor its Subcustodians are responsible for the authenticity of markings on or for the weight, fineness or contents of any of the Precious Metals, delivered to them by Customer or a third party for the account of Customer.

5.       Custodian shall maintain insurance protection covering the Custodian’s duties and activities hereunder in such amounts and insuring against such risks as Custodian deems reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances. Subcustodians may maintain such insurance in regard to their business on such terms as they consider appropriate, but the Custodian shall have no liability for the terms or sufficiency of the insurance maintained by any Subcustodian or for the failure of any Subcustodian to maintain insurance.

ARTICLE III

DELIVERY OF PRECIOUS METALS TO, AND WITHDRAWAL OF PRECIOUS METALS FROM, CUSTODY

1.       Each delivery of Precious Metals to be held in custody in accordance with this Supplement shall be made pursuant to an authenticated trade instruction sent by the Customer or its Authorized Representative to the Custodian. Such instruction must be received by the published trade instruction deadlines and by the agreed communication method. Such instruction shall be acknowledged by the Custodian. The authorized trade instruction shall identify the Precious Metal to be delivered, in such customary manner as specified by the Custodian, and the delivery date, and the Custodian’s acknowledgment shall identify the Subcustodian and Secure Facility to which the Customer shall deliver the Precious Metal. Delivery shall be made only to the Secure Facility of the Subcustodian designated by the Custodian. Customer acknowledges and agrees that neither the Custodian nor the Subcustodian has any responsibility or liability for any loss, damage or destruction of any Precious Metals prior to the time the Subcustodian identified by the Custodian accepts the care, custody and control of the Precious Metals at the specified Subcustodian’s Secure Facility, and Customer hereby releases Custodian and each Subcustodian from any responsibility or liability prior to the time the Subcustodian identified by the Custodian accepts the care, custody and control of the Precious Metals. In the event the Precious Metal delivered to the Subcustodian differs from the identification provided by the Customer, the Custodian shall endeavor promptly to notify the Customer. Neither the Custodian nor any Subcustodian shall be liable for any loss resulting from the failure of the Precious Metal actually delivered to conform to the identification provided by the Customer in the authorized trade instruction.

2. Each withdrawal of Precious Metals from custody in accordance with this Supplement shall be made pursuant to an authenticated trade instruction sent by the Customer or its Authorized Representative to the Custodian. Such instruction must be received by the published trade instruction deadlines and by the agreed communication method. Such instruction shall be acknowledged by the Custodian. The authorized trade instruction shall identify the Precious Metal to be withdrawn, in such customary manner as specified by the Custodian, and the delivery date and the Custodian’s acknowledgment shall identify the Subcustodian and Secure Facility from which the Customer shall take delivery of the Precious Metal. Customer must collect or arrange for the collection of the Precious Metal being withdrawn from the Subcustodian having physical possession thereof. All risk in and to the Precious Metal withdrawn shall pass at the specified Secure Facility at the time Customer or its Authorized Representative acknowledges receipt.

3.       Customer shall be responsible for all expenses associated with the delivery and withdrawal of Precious Metals to and from the Secure Facility, as well as all insurance, safekeeping, security and secure transport arrangements for the Precious Metals while either in storage outside the terms of this agreement or in transit to or from the Custodians appointed Subcustodian. Customer shall pay or reimburse the Custodian from time to time for any taxes or other governmental charges payable, and actually paid, by Custodian upon storage or transfer of the Precious Metals made hereunder.

4.       If, in Custodian’s opinion, any authenticated trade instruction is unclear or ambiguous, Custodian shall endeavor to obtain clarification from Customer. In the absence of such clarification Custodian may, in its absolute discretion, either (i) decline to take action until clarification is received or (ii) act on what it believes, in good faith, to be such instruction.

ARTICLE IV

CONCERNING CUSTODIAN

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, Custodian shall not be liable for any costs, expenses, damages, liabilities or claims, including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees (collectively, “Losses”), incurred by or asserted against Customer, except those Losses arising out of Custodian’s own negligence or willful misconduct. Custodian shall have no liability whatsoever for the action or inaction of any commodities exchange. With respect to any Losses incurred by Customer as a result of the acts or failures to act by a Subcustodian acting as warehouseman hereunder, Custodian shall take appropriate action to recover such Losses, and Custodian’s liability shall be limited to the amount recovered net of Custodian’s costs and expenses. In no event shall Custodian be liable to Customer or any third party for special, indirect or consequential damages, or lost profits or loss of business, arising in connection with this Supplement.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS.

The provisions of this Supplement shall apply solely with respect to the custody of Precious Metals. All provisions of the Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect with respect to assets held pursuant to this Supplement, and all capitalized terms and provisions contained in the Agreement shall be read so as to apply fully to the services and activities contemplated by this Supplement; provided, that in the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Agreement and the provisions of this Supplement, the provisions of this Supplement shall control.

Each Fund listed below and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Bank”) have entered into an average compensating balance arrangement, which would allow the Funds to compensate the Bank for any overdrafts by maintaining a positive cash balance and conversely, on any day a Fund maintains a positive balance, the respective Fund will be permitted to overdraw the account as compensation, within the Maximum Daily Balance limits as established for each fund as listed below.

In each instance, Federal Reserve requirements for minimum balances (currently 10%), will be assessed. Therefore, all overdrafts must be compensated at 100% of the total and all positive balances will allow for an overdraft of up to 90% of the total (unless the positive balance is the result of an error on the part on the Bank, in which case the positive balance would be assessed at 100%). The Funds shall maintain the average compensating balance over quarterly periods (ending March, June, September and December for FGRF, FCRF and FMUTR; and ending February, May, August, and November for AGCR, USTCR and GOTMF). Average balances will be computed at the end of the quarter. Net positive balances will receive an earnings credit computed at the daily effective 90 – day T-Bill rate on the last day of a period. Net negative balances will be charged at the Fed Funds rate plus 1% on the last day of the period. Quarterly net credits or charges will be applied to the safekeeping fees. Credits that exceed the safekeeping fee will be carried over into the next billing period but must be applied in a 12 month cycle; all accumulated unapplied credits will expire in the final quarter of the cycle, i.e. in November or December. However, upon specific request from the Fund, Custodian at its discretion may agree to carry forward into the next 12 month cycle any accumulated credits, contingent on their application within a specified time period.

Credits are not redeemable for cash and will expire in the event the relationship with the Funds is terminated.

Maximum Daily Balances (“MDB”) limits have been determined for each fund. On days where the Funds exceed their MDBs, interest will be credited on 90% of the excess balance at the 90-day T-Bill rate or charged on 100% of the excess overdraft balance at the Fed Funds rate plus 1%, based on the day(s) the MDB’s were exceeded.

WHEREAS, the Funds and the Custodian desire to amend the Agreement subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       Article IX of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following language:

1.       The Agreement shall become effective on March 1, 2011 and shall remain in full force and effect for a period of four (4) years (the “Initial Term”) and shall automatically continue in full force and effect after such Initial Term unless either party terminates this Agreement by written notice to the other party at least six (6) months prior to the expiration of the Initial Term. Additionally, if the Custodian (or any of its affiliates) engages in (i) any act or omission which constitutes a breach of any representation, warranty, term, or obligation contained in this Agreement, which upon notice the Custodian has not cured within 5 business days or (ii) any act or omission which constitutes negligence, reckless misconduct, willful malfeasance, or lack of good faith in fulfilling the terms and obligations of this Agreement, then each Fund shall have the right to immediately terminate this Agreement.

In the event such notice is given by the Fund, it shall be accompanied by a copy of a resolution of the board of the Fund, certified by the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary, electing to terminate this Agreement and designating a successor Custodian or Custodians, each of which shall be a bank or trust company having not less than $2,000,000 aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits.

2.        If a successor Custodian is not designated by the Fund or Custodian in accordance with the preceding Section, the Fund shall upon the date specified in the notice of termination of this Agreement and upon the delivery by Custodian of all Securities (other than Securities which cannot be delivered to the Fund) and money then owned by the Fund be deemed to be its own Custodian and Custodian shall thereby be relieved of all duties and responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement, other than the duty with respect to Securities which cannot be delivered to the Fund to hold such Securities hereunder in accordance with this Agreement.

2.       The Agreement shall remain in full force and effect as amended by this Amendment.

TENTH AMENDMENT TO

CUSTODY AGREEMENT

THIS AMENDMENT (“Amendment”) TO THE CUSTODY AGREEMENT dated June 7, 2005, amended November 7, 2007, September 5, 2008, September 8, 2009, October 23, 2009, November 13, 2009, January 13, 2010, September 1, 2010, March 1, 2011 and March 25, 2011 (the “Agreement”), by and between the registered investment companies listed on Schedule II to the Agreement, as may be amended from time to time (each stand alone registered investment company and each Series a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”), and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Custodian”).

WHEREAS, each Fund is registered as a management investment company, or certain services thereof, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and

WHEREAS, the Funds and the Custodian desire to amend the Agreement subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement.

2.       The following article shall be added to the Agreement as a new Article XI “CUSTODY OF LOAN DOCUMENT FILES AND RELATED SERVICES”:

1.       As used in this Article XI, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

“Loan Document File” shall mean a hard copy file delivered to and received by Custodian hereunder.

“Loan Documents” shall mean all documents and instruments relating to any Loans (as hereinafter defined), including, without limitation, loan or credit agreements, assignment and acceptance agreements, promissory notes, participation agreements, deeds, mortgages and security agreements contained in a Loan Document File.

“Loans” shall mean the bank loans or loan commitments held in the Fund.

“Servicer” shall mean the agent appointed by the applicable Fund to service the Loans, which initially shall be the Custodian, provided that the parties have entered into a separate loan servicing agreement (the “Loan Servicing Agreement”).

2.       It is understood and agreed that unless Xxxxxxxxx and the Fund enter into a duly executed Loan Servicing Agreement, all references to the Servicer hereunder shall refer to a person or entity other than Custodian. Upon execution of such Loan Servicing Agreement, all such references shall be to Custodian.

3.       The Servicer, as agent for the Fund, shall be solely responsible for the servicing of all Loans. All payments by or on behalf of borrowers under the Loans received by Custodian shall be credited to the Account.

4.       It is understood and agreed that Custodian shall have no responsibility for maintaining any records of account activity relating to each Loan, including without limitation, all amortization schedules, records of transfer, pay-off, assignment, participation, sale, modification, termination or other changes in the Loans, except as provided for in the Loan Servicing Agreement between the Funds and Custodian dated March 25, 2011.

5.       Upon origination, modification or other change in any Loan, the Fund shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to Custodian all relevant Loan Documents. It is understood and agreed that Xxxxxxxxx will accept any file purporting to be a Loan Document File for custody hereunder “as is” and without any examination. Any duty Custodian may have to review or inspect any Loan Documents or to determine the contents of Loan Document Files shall only be pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Servicing Agreement. No such duties or obligations shall be imposed on Custodian under the Agreement. Under no circumstances will Custodian be required to issue a trust receipt (or similar instrument) with respect to the Loan Document Files or their contents. Account statements will only reflect an inventory of the Loan Document Files that Xxxxxxxxx holds in custody hereunder without any representation as to the contents thereof.

6.       No director, officer, employee or agent of the Fund shall have physical access to the Loan Document Files or be authorized or permitted to withdraw any Loan Documents nor shall Custodian deliver any Loan Documents to any such person, unless such access or withdrawal has been duly authorized by a resolution of the board of directors of the Fund. All such access shall be by two or more persons jointly, at least one of whom is an officer of the Fund.

3.       All Loan Documents and Loan Document Files in the possession of the Custodian are and shall remain the property of the Fund.

4.       This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Amendment shall become effective as of the date hereof upon execution by the parties hereto. From and after the execution hereof, any reference to the Agreement shall be a reference to the Agreement as amended hereby. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of the Agreement, the terms of the Amendment shall control. Except as amended hereby, the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and is hereby ratified and confirmed by the parties thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been executed for and on behalf of the undersigned as of March 25, 2011.

LOAN SERVICING ANNEX AND SUPPLEMENT

TO THE CUSTODY AGREEMENT

This Loan Servicing Annex and Supplement (the “Loan Servicing Agreement”) a part of the Custody Agreement dated June 7, 2005, amended November 7, 2007, September 5, 2008, September 8, 2009, October 23, 2009, November 13, 2009, January 13, 2010, September 1, 2010, March 1, 2011, and March 25, 2011 (the “Custody Agreement”), between the registered investment companies listed on Schedule II to the Custody Agreement, as may be amended from time to time (each stand alone registered investment company and each Series a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”) and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Custodian”). Capitalized terms used but not defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Custody Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Funds and the Custodian desire to supplement the Custody Agreement to provide for the servicing of loans held as assets of the Funds, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements, covenants and representations herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.       The Services. Custodian shall provide to the Funds the services described in Exhibit A attached hereto (which services are hereinafter referred to as the “Services”). The Funds shall, promptly after the date hereof, deliver or cause to be delivered to Custodian copies of all documents and information listed on Schedule II to this Loan Servicing Agreement relating to the loans or loan commitments (the “Loans”) being serviced for the loan portfolio(s) described on Exhibit A-1 (the “Portfolio(s)”).

2.       Service Fees. In consideration of the performance of the Services by Custodian, each Fund shall pay Custodian in accordance with the fee arrangements set forth on Schedule I to this Loan Servicing Agreement (the “Service Fees”). Except for such sums as are payable upon the execution hereof, if any, Custodian shall send an invoice for the Service Fees to the applicable Fund within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter during the term hereof and such invoice shall be payable upon receipt.

3.       Delegation. Custodian is hereby authorized to assign its rights and delegate its duties hereunder to a BNY Affiliate, whenever and on such terms and conditions as it deems necessary or appropriate to perform its services hereunder, without any further notice to the Funds. The Funds agree to be bound by all actions taken by such BNY Affiliate pursuant to the preceding sentence to the same extent as if they were taken by Custodian, it being understood and agreed that no such assignment or delegation shall discharge Custodian from its obligations hereunder. Accordingly, Custodian is fully responsible to the Funds for the acts or omissions of such BNY Affiliate under the Agreement to the same extent that Custodian would be liable for such acts or omissions had Custodian not delegated such services to such BNY Affiliate. If so advised by Custodian, the Funds shall provide Instructions or other information directly to such BNY Affiliate rather than to Custodian.

4.       Notice of Default. Custodian shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any default or event of default under the Loans unless Custodian has received notice from a Fund referring to this Loan Servicing Agreement, describing such default or event of default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” Such notice will be delivered in a manner permitted under the Custody Agreement. Custodian shall take such action with respect to such default or event of default as shall be reasonably directed by such Fund; provided that unless and until Custodian shall have received such directions, Custodian may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such default or event of default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of such Fund.

5.       Non-Reliance by the Funds. The Funds expressly acknowledge that neither Custodian nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties pursuant to this Loan Servicing Agreement and that no act by Custodian hereafter taken, including, without limitation, any review of the affairs of any borrower or any affiliate of any borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by Custodian with respect to the Loans. The Funds represent to Custodian that they have, independently and without reliance upon Custodian, and based on such documents and information as they shall deem appropriate at the time, made their own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any borrower and its affiliates and made their own decisions to make and/or purchase the Loans. The Funds also represent that they will, independently and without reliance upon Custodian, and based on such documents and information as they shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action with respect to the Loans, and to make such investigation as they deem necessary to inform them as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of any borrower. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Funds by the Custodian, Custodian shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide the Funds with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any borrower that may come into the possession of the Custodian or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

6.       Advances. Custodian shall not be obligated to make any advances or make any payments to any party out of its own funds and no provision of this Loan Servicing Agreement or any other document executed in connection herewith shall require Custodian to expend or risk its own funds in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

7.       Event of Default by Custodian. The following shall constitute a “Custodian Event of Default” hereunder:

The commencement of a case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other similar relief with respect to Custodian or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or seeking the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator, administrator, custodian or other similar official for Custodian or Custodian’s property and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of thirty (30) days.

8.       Event of Default by a Fund. The following shall constitute a “Fund Event of Default” hereunder:

The commencement of a case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other similar relief with respect to a Fund or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or seeking the appointment of a receiver, trustee, liquidator, conservator, administrator, custodian or other similar official for such Fund or such Fund’s property and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of thirty (30) days.

9.       Remedies.

(a) If a Custodian Event of Default shall occur, the Funds may terminate this Loan Servicing Agreement immediately upon the delivery of written notice to Custodian, and shall, subject to the limitations contained in the Custody Agreement, be entitled to any and all other rights and remedies under law or in equity.

(b) If a Fund Event of Default shall occur, Custodian may terminate this Loan Servicing Agreement and resign immediately upon the delivery of written notice to the Funds, and shall, subject to the limitations contained in the Custody Agreement, be entitled to any and all other rights and remedies under law or in equity.

10.       Termination for No Cause. Either Custodian or the Funds may terminate: (a) this Loan Servicing Agreement in its entirety or (b) the Services as to any particular portfolio of loans or as to a loan or loans without terminating this Loan Servicing Agreement in its entirety, for any or no reason upon the providing of ninety (90) days’ advance written notice to the other parties.

11.       NOTICE REQUIRED BY THE USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Fund hereby acknowledges that Custodian is subject to federal laws, including the Customer Identification Program (CIP) requirements under the USA PATRIOT Act and its implementing regulations, pursuant to which Custodian must obtain, verify and record information that allows Custodian to identify its customers. Accordingly Custodian will ask the Funds to provide certain information including, but not limited to, the name of each Fund, physical address, tax identification number and other information that will help Custodian to identify and verify each Fund’s identity such as organizational documents, ownership, certificate of good standing, license to do business, or other pertinent identifying information.

12.       Custody Agreement. The parties understand and agree that this Loan Servicing Agreement shall be subject to the term and conditions of the Custody Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of the Custody Agreement and the Loan Servicing Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Loan Servicing Agreement shall govern.

[The Remainder of this page is intentionally left blank]

“COMPENSATING BALANCE ARRANGEMENT” SECTION IN EXHIBIT D

AS APPLICABLE TO FEDERATED SHORT-INTERMEDIATE DURATION MUNICIPAL TRUST AND FEDERATED MUNICIPAL ULTRASHORT FUND

Compensating Balance Arrangement

Each Fund and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Bank”) have entered into an average compensating balance arrangement, which would allow a Fund to compensate the Bank for any overdrafts by maintaining a positive cash balance and conversely, on any day a Fund maintains a positive balance, the respective Fund will be permitted to overdraw the account as compensation, within the Maximum Daily Balance limits as established for each Fund as listed below.

In each instance, Federal Reserve requirements for minimum balances (currently 10%), will be assessed. Therefore, all overdrafts must be compensated at 100% of the total and all positive balances will allow for an overdraft of up to 90% of the total (unless the positive balance is the result of an error on the part of the Bank, in which case the positive balance would be assessed at 100%). The Funds shall maintain the average compensating balance over quarterly periods (ending March, June, September, and December). Average balances will be computed at the end of the quarter. Net negative balances will be charged at the Fed Funds rate plus 1% on the last day of the period. Quarterly net charges will be applied to the safekeeping fees. Credit is not given for net positive balances.

Maximum Daily Balance (“MDB”) limits have been determined for each Fund. On days where a Fund exceeds its MDB, interest will be charged on 100% of the excess overdraft balance at the Fed Funds rate plus 1%, based on the day(s) the MDB was exceeded.

WHEREAS, the parties have entered into that certain Custody Agreement, dated June 7, 2005 (as amended seventeen times previously, supplemented and/or restated, the “Agreement”), by and between the Funds and the Custodian;

WHEREAS, each of the Funds and the Custodian wish to amend the overdraft and compensating balance arrangements between each of the Funds and the Custodian, including as set forth in the “Earnings Credit Arrangements,” “Compensating Balance Arrangements” and “Hard Dollar Compensation Arrangements” set forth in Exhibit D and Exhibit E, as set forth below.

Each Fund and the Custodian have entered into the following arrangement, which is applicable separately with respect to each separate Fund:

(1) On a daily basis, 100% of overdrawn balances with respect to the Fund will be charged at a rate of 175 basis points over the daily effective Fed Funds rate, such charges to be applied to the Fund’s safekeeping fees on a monthly basis.

AMENDMENT TO TERMS OF

FOREIGN EXCHANGE BENCHMARK PRICING PROGRAM

AND

FOREIGN EXCHANGE STANDING INSTRUCTION SESSION RANGE PROGRAM

FX PROGRAM SELECTION FORM

Federated Investment Management Company (“Federated”) has received the FX Standing Instructions Session Range Program Description, dated Xxxxx 00, 0000 (xx amended from time to time, the “Session Range Program Description”), and the FX Standing Instructions Benchmark Pricing Program Description, dated March 25, 2016 (as amended from time to time, the “Benchmark Program Description” and collectively with the Session Range Program Description, the “Documents”).

Capitalized Terms not otherwise defined herein shall bear the meanings given to them in the Session Range Program Description or Benchmark Program Description, as applicable.

The parties agree that the terms of the Documents are amended as described herein:

1. By executing this amendment and the FX Program Selection Form attached hereto as Exhibit A (collectively, the “Opt-In Form”), the parties express their agreement regarding the pricing and processing of FX Transactions executed pursuant to the terms of the Documents, as amended by this Opt-In Form. For avoidance of doubt, this is an agreement concerning the pricing and processing of FX Transactions, and not an agreement by either party hereto to enter into any particular FX Transaction. BNY Mellon is not in any way obligated to enter into any FX Transaction with the Customer as a result of the Customer providing instructions to BNY Mellon under either the FX Benchmark Pricing Program (the “Benchmark Program”) or the FX Standing Instructions Session Range Program Description (the “Session Range Program”). BNY Mellon may refuse to accept or provide a price for the Actionable Trade Request for any reason, including without limitation, because of market restrictions, legal, regulatory, credit or operational reasons.
2. XXX Xxxxxx’x Asset Servicing Representative dedicated to Federated will provide Federated with notice as soon as reasonably practicable: (i) of any refusal to accept or provide a price for the Actionable Trade Request, and (ii) of any market, legal, regulatory, credit or operational restrictions that render BNY Mellon incapable of accepting or providing a price for an Actionable Trade Request with respect to a particular currency. Such notice will be provided by email alert to Federated at the email address(es) provided below or at such other e-mail address as may be provided by Federated in writing hereafter.
3. Federated acknowledges that each Customer identified in Exhibit B will engage in FX Transactions with BNY Mellon under the Benchmark Program for Developed Market Currencies, and under the Session Range Program for all other currencies. Federated may amend the accounts listed on Exhibit B hereto at any time by sending BNY Mellon an instruction in writing to either add account(s) or to remove account(s). The instruction shall identify the name of the account(s), account number(s), legal name(s), and the instruction to add or remove such accounts from Exhibit B. An instruction to add a new account will be thereby incorporated hereunder xxxx XXX Xxxxxx’s written consent (or upon execution of an FX Transaction with respect to such account, which shall be deemed BNY Mellon’s written consent). An instruction to remove an account shall cause such account to be automatically terminated from the scope of the Documents upon receipt of such instruction without requiring BNY Mellon’s consent, provided that such termination shall not affect any obligations of such terminated account outstanding at the time of termination and including a reasonable time to act thereon.
4. As used in the Documents, each separate legal entity is deemed to be a Customer.  Unless checked below, Federated understands and acknowledges that Netting (as defined in Annex A and described in Annex B and C of the applicable Document) will occur among accounts belonging to the same Customer. In the case of multiple accounts, if Federated does not identify which accounts belong to the same Customer, netting will occur at the account level.

We are requiring you to apply Netting across different Customers.  We have specified the exact legal names associated with each account in Exhibit B and provided that we have elected to apply Netting across different Customers, the following Indemnity shall apply:

Indemnity

The accounts listed in Exhibit B do not belong to the same Customer, they belong to various Customers. In consideration of making Netting available across the accounts of various Customers and enabling the FX trading activity of one Customer to benefit another Customer, we agree to indemnify and hold BNY Mellon and any affiliate of BNY Mellon harmless from and against any claim, loss, liability, damage, cost or expense of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses as they become due), arising out of or related to any claim of breach of any Law  in connection with the Netting across the accounts of various Customers. "Law" means any law, rule or regulation, including without limitation the Investment Company Act of 1940, Employee Retirement Income Securities Act of 1974, each as amended, or any successor federal statute.

5. Reporting for FX Transactions shall be in the form attached, which may be modified from time to time. In the event that such modifications result in a material reduction in the information contained in the form and thereafter Federated reasonably requests such information, then BNY Mellon will provide such information as it relates to the Benchmark Program or the Session Range Program, so long as Federated’s request does not include third party information, violate any policy of BNY Mellon, conflict with any other customer’s confidentiality, and is information that BNY Mellon can produce (as reasonably determined by BNY Mellon).
6. The parties agree that, if executing an Actionable Trade Request, prior to determining that it will not price such Actionable Trade Request in accordance with the terms of the Documents, BNY Mellon must make a reasonable and good faith determination that an Extraordinary Event has occurred or is expected to occur.
7.
