not responsible for the operation of PFPC's AML program or by an
outside party, for compliance with PFPC's established AML policies and
procedures; (c) designate a person or persons responsible for
implementing and monitoring the operation and internal controls of
PFPC's AML program; and (d) provide ongoing training of PFPC personnel
relating to the prevention of money-laundering activities. Upon the
reasonable request of the Fund, PFPC shall provide to the Fund: (w) a
copy of PFPC's written AML policies and procedures (it being understood

or regulatory agencies such information and records relating to its AML
program as such examiners shall reasonably request. The parties
acknowledge the provisions herein do not apply to Section 326 of the
