THIS AMENDMENT to the Transfer Agency and Service Agreement by and between
Prudential Equity Income Fund (the "Fund") and Prudential Mutual Fund
Services LLC (successor to Prudential Mutual Fund Services, Inc.)("PMFS") is
entered into as of August 24, 1999.
WHEREAS, the Fund and PMFS have entered into a Transfer Agency and
Service Agreement (the "Agreement") pursuant to which PMFS serves as transfer
agent, dividend disbursing agent and shareholder servicing agent for the
Fund; and
WHEREAS, the Fund and PMFS desire to amend the Agreement to confirm
the Fund's agreement to pay transfer agency account fees and expenses for
beneficial owners holding shares through omnibus accounts maintained by The
Prudential Insurance Company of America, its subsidiaries or affiliates.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the continuation of the
Agreement, and other good and valuable consideration, Article 8 of the
Agreement is amended by adding the following section to the Agreement:
8.04 PMFS may enter into agreements with Prudential or
any subsidiary or affiliate of Prudential whereby PMFS will
maintain an omnibus account and the Fund will reimburse PMFS for
amounts paid by PMFS to Prudential, or such subsidiary or
affiliate, in an amount not in excess of the annual maintenance
fee for each beneficial shareholder account and transactional
fees and expenses with respect to such beneficial shareholder
account as if each beneficial shareholder account were maintained
by PMFS on the Fund's records, subject to the fee schedule
attached hereto as Schedule A. Prudential, its subsidiary or
affiliate, as the case may be, shall maintain records relating to
each beneficial shareholder account that underlies the omnibus
account maintained by PMFS.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to
be executed in their names and on their behalf by and through their duly
authorized officers, as of the day and year first above written.
