dates noted on such SCHEDULE A, together with all other open-end management
investment companies subsequently established and made subject to this Agreement
in accordance with Section 2 (the "Issuers").
WHEREAS, each of the Issuers is regulated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), a federal functional regulator; and
WHEREAS, each of the Issuers is subject to an SEC rule implementing 31
U.S.C. 5318(h) (the "CIP Rule"), which requires the Issuers to implement a
written Customer Identification Program ("CIP"); and
WHEREAS, each of the Issuers is part of the American Century mutual fund
complex and, as such, has adopted and implemented the American Century
Anti-Money Laundering Program (the "AML Program"), including the CIP contained
therein; and
WHEREAS, from time to time a shareholder of one of the Issuers (a
"Predecessor Issuer") may seek to become a shareholder of another of the Issuers
(a "Subsequent Issuer"), by exchange, transfer, investment of new funds or
otherwise; and
WHEREAS, it is reasonable for a Subsequent Issuer to rely on the
performance by a Predecessor Issuer (or its agent) of the procedures of the
American Century CIP; and
WHEREAS, the CIP Rule contemplates and permits such reliance, provided
that the Issuers enter into a contract with respect thereto;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth
herein, the parties agree as follows:
Section 1. Annual Certification
Each Issuer shall certify annually to each of the other Issuers that it
has implemented the AML Program and that it (or its agent) will perform the
specific requirements of the CIP. Such certification shall be made substantially
in the form set forth on SCHEDULE B, attached hereto.
Section 2. Amendment
This Agreement and the Schedules forming a part hereto may be amended at
any time by a writing signed by each of the parties hereto. In the event that
any additional Issuers are to be made parties to this Agreement, whether such
funds were in existence at the time of the effective date of this Agreement or
subsequently formed, SCHEDULE A hereto shall be amended to reflect the addition
of such new Issuers and such new Issuers shall thereafter become parties hereto.
In the event that any of the Issuers listed on SCHEDULE A terminates its
registration as a management investment company, or otherwise ceases operations,
SCHEDULE A shall be amended to reflect the deletion of such Issuers.
