WHEREAS, the Trust is an open-end registered investment company and desires that the Transfer Agent perform certain services for the Funds; and

WHEREAS, the Transfer Agent is willing to perform such services upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Appointment. The Trust hereby appoints the Transfer Agent to act as transfer agent for the Funds’ authorized and issued shares of beneficial interest, dividend disbursing agent and shareholders’ servicing agent for the Funds and as agent for the Funds’ shareholders in connection with the shareholder plans described in the Prospectus (as defined below), and the Transfer Agent accepts such appointments and will perform the respective duties and functions of such offices in the manner hereinafter set forth.

2. Compensation. The Trust shall pay to the Transfer Agent, or to such person(s) as the Transfer Agent may from time to time instruct, for services rendered and costs incurred in connection with the performance of duties hereunder, such compensation and reimbursement as may from time to time be approved by vote of the Trustees of the Trust.

Schedule B hereto sets forth the compensation and out-of-pocket expense reimbursement arrangements to be effective as of the date of this Agreement, and the treatment of all interest earned with respect to balances in the accounts maintained by the Transfer Agent referred to in paragraphs 6, 7, 10 and 11 of this Agreement, net of any charges imposed by the bank(s) at which the Transfer Agent maintains such accounts. Any compensation jointly agreed to hereunder may be adjusted from time to time by attaching to this Agreement a revised Schedule B, dated and signed by an officer of each party.

The Trust will furnish the Transfer Agent with copies of such documents as the Transfer Agent deems necessary to the proper performance of its duties, including but not limited to the following documents: the Declaration of Trust of the Trust and all amendments thereto; and the Trust’s Registration Statement as in effect on the date hereof under the Securities Act of 1933 Act, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as

amended (the “1940 Act”), and all amendments or supplements thereto hereafter filed. The Prospectus(es) and Statement(s) of Additional Information contained in such Registration Statement, as from time to time amended and supplemented, together are herein collectively referred to as the “Prospectus.”

4. Share Certificates. If the Trustees of the Trust shall have resolved that all of the Trust’s (or a particular Fund’s) shares of beneficial interest, or all of the shares of a particular series or class of such shares, shall be issued in certificated form, the Transfer Agent shall maintain a sufficient supply of blank share certificates representing such shares, in the form approved from time to time by the Trustees of the Trust. Such blank share certificates shall be properly signed, manually or by facsimile signature, by the duly authorized officers of the Trust, and shall bear the seal or facsimile thereof of the Trust; and notwithstanding the death, resignation or removal of any officer of the Trust authorized to sign such share certificates, the Transfer Agent may continue to countersign certificates which bear the manual or facsimile signature of such officer until otherwise directed by the Trust.

5. Lost or Destroyed Certificates. In case of the alleged loss or destruction of any shareholder certificate, no new certificate shall be issued in lieu thereof, unless there shall first be furnished to the Transfer Agent an affidavit of loss or non-receipt by the holder of shares with respect to which a certificate has been lost, or destroyed, supported by an appropriate bond satisfactory to the Transfer Agent and the Trust issued by a surety company satisfactory to the Transfer Agent.

6. Purchases; Receipt of Funds for Investment. The Transfer Agent will maintain one or more accounts with its cash management bank into which it will deposit funds payable to the Transfer Agent as agent for, or otherwise identified as being for the account of, the Funds or the Funds’ principal underwriter (the “Distributor”), prior to crediting such funds to the respective accounts of the Funds and the Distributor. Thereafter, the Transfer Agent will determine the amount of any such funds due a Fund (equal to the number of Fund shares sold by the Fund computed pursuant to paragraph 7 hereof, multiplied by the net asset value of a Fund share next determined after receipt of such purchase order) and the Distributor (equal to the sales charge applicable to such sale computed pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof), respectively, deposit the portion due the Distributor in its account as may from time to time be designated by the Distributor, deposit for safe keeping the net amount due the Fund in the Fund’s account with its custodian (the “Custodian”), notify the Distributor (such notification to the Distributor to include the amount of such sales charge to be remitted by the Distributor to the dealer participating in the sale, computed pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof) and the Fund, respectively, of such deposits, such notification to be given as soon as practicable on the next business day stating the total amount deposited to said accounts during the previous business day. Such notification shall be confirmed in writing. These actions shall be performed in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus.

7. Shareholder Accounts. Upon receipt of any funds referred to in paragraph 6 hereof, the Transfer Agent will compute the number of shares purchased by the shareholder according to the net asset value of Fund shares next determined after such receipt less the applicable sales charge, calculated pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof; and

The Distributor or the Trust may give to the Transfer Agent reasonable instructions with respect to rejection of orders for shares.

In the event that any check or other payment of money on the account of any shareholder or new investor is returned or dishonored for any reason, the Transfer Agent shall stop redemptions of all shares owned by the shareholder or new investor related to that payment, place a stop payment on any checks that have been issued to redeem shares of a shareholder, cancel such shares for which payment was returned or dishonored and take such other action as it or the Distributor deems appropriate.

As Dividend Disbursing Agent, the Transfer Agent will, on or before the payment date of any such dividend or distribution, notify the Custodian of the estimated amount of cash required to pay such dividend or distribution, and the Trust agrees that on or before the mailing date of such dividend or distribution it will instruct the Custodian to make available to the Transfer Agent sufficient funds therefore in the dividend and distribution account maintained by the Transfer Agent with the Custodian.
