2. Appointment. The Fund hereby appoints PFPC to provide administration and

or advice or Oral Instructions or Written Instructions PFPC
receives from the Fund and the advice PFPC receives from counsel,
PFPC may rely upon and follow the advice of counsel. PFPC shall

and liabilities arising under the Securities Laws and any state
and foreign securities and blue sky laws) arising directly or
indirectly from any action or omission to act which PFPC takes in
connection with the provision of services to the Fund. Neither PFPC,
nor any of its affiliates, shall be indemnified against any
liability (or any expenses incident to such liability) caused by
PFPC's or its affiliates' own willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard in the performance of PFPC's
activities under this Agreement. Any amounts payable by the Fund
hereunder shall be satisfied only against the relevant Portfolio's
assets and not against the assets of any other investment portfolio
of the Fund.

directors and employees harmless from all taxes, charges, expenses,
assessments, claims and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys'

misfeasance of PFPC in the performance of its duties hereunder.

misfeasance, bad faith or negligence or any material breach by the
Fund of this Agreement or any other agreement between PFPC and
the Fund.
(c) LEGAL ACTION AGAINST INDEMNIFICATION PARTY.
(i) Notice of the Action
A party that seeks indemnification under Section 12 must promptly
give the other party notice of any legal action. But a delay in
notice does not relieve an indemnifying party of any liability to an
indemnified party, except to the extent the indemnifying party shows
that the delay prejudiced the defense of the action.
(ii) Participating in or Assuming the Defense
The indemnifying party may participate in the defense at any time or
it may assume the defense by giving notice to the other party. After
assuming the defense, the indemnifying party:
(1) must select any attorney that is satisfactory to the
other party;
(2) is not liable to the other party for any later
attorney's fees or for any other later expenses that the other party
incurs, except for reasonable investigation costs;
(3) must not compromise or settle the action without the
other party's consent (but the other party must not unreasonably
withhold its consent); and
- 9 -
(4) is not liable for any compromise or settlement made
without its consent.
(iii) Failing to Assume the Defense
If the indemnifying party fails to participate in or assume the
defense within 15 days after receiving notice of the action, the
indemnifying party is bound by any determination made in the action
or by any compromise or settlement made by the other party.
(d) The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive termination of this
Agreement.

and diligence in the performance of its duties hereunder and to act
in good faith in performing services provided for under this
Agreement. PFPC shall be liable only for any damages arising out of

extent such damages arise out of PFPC's willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of such duties or any
material breach by PFPC of this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary,
(i) PFPC shall not be liable for losses, delays, failure, errors,

(i) To help the U.S. government fight the funding of terrorism and money
laundering activities, U.S. Federal law requires each financial
institution to obtain, verify, and record certain information that
identifies each person who initially opens an account with that
financial institution on or after October 1, 2003. Certain of PFPC's
affiliates are financial institutions, and PFPC may, as a matter of
policy, request (or may have already requested) the Fund's name,
address and taxpayer identification number or other
government-issued identification number, and, if such party is a
natural person, that party's date of birth. PFPC may also ask (and
may have already asked) for additional identifying information, and
PFPC may take steps (and may have already taken steps) to verify the
authenticity and accuracy of these data elements.
