TRANSFER AGENCY SERVICE AGREEMENT

Schedule C – AML Customer Identification Program Delegation

In recognition of the importance of complying with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 and the regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, the “Patriot Act”), which imposes new anti-money laundering requirements on financial institutions including mutual funds, the Company has developed and implemented a written anti-money laundering program, (“Program”), designed to satisfy the requirements of the Patriot Act.

The Company , in recognition of the fact that the Patriot Act enables a mutual fund to delegate to its transfer agent the implementation and operation of aspects of its anti-money laundering program, pursuant to Section 2(k), delegates to GFS the implementation and operation of certain aspects of the Company ’s program.

1. Duties. The Company delegates to GFS the implementation and operation of their Customer Identification Program, (“CIP”), designed to identify and verify persons seeking to open an account with the Company , to the extent reasonable and practicable. GFS will maintain records of the information used to verify the person’s identity and determine whether the person appears on any lists of known or suspected terrorist or terrorist organizations provided to the Company by any government agency. Duties include:

Prior to opening a customer account or granting customers authority to effect transactions with respect to an account, GFS shall obtain and record, on behalf of the Company , the following identifying information about each customer, at a minimum including:

Name;

ii.

Date of birth, for a natural person;

iii.

Addresses, including

residence or business street address or an Army Post Office or Fleet Post Office box number or residential or business street address of next of kin or other contact individual; or

principal place of business local office or other physical location, for a person other than a natural person; and

iv.

Identification numbers:

A taxpayer identification number from each customer that is a US person; or

A taxpayer identification number, passport number and country of issuance, alien identification card number, or number and country of issuance of any other government-issued document evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard from each customer that is not a US person, except that the customer can provide this information within a reasonable period of time after the account is established provided that the customer has applied for and can provide a copy of such application for the employer identification number prior to such time.

Unexpired government-issued identification, such as a driver’s license or passport for individuals; and

Documents showing the existence of an entity, such as certified articles of incorporation, a government-issued business license, a partnership agreement, or Company instrument for a person that is not an individual.

ii.

When documentary verification fails for reasons including but not limited to, GFS not being familiar with the documents presented, no documentation is obtained by GFS, or the customer does not open the account in person, GFS may then verify customer identity via non-documentary methods including:

Directly contacting the customer;

Independent verification of the customer’s identity through comparison of information provided by customer with information obtained from a consumer reporting agency, public database, or other source;

Checking references with other financial institutions; and

Obtaining a financial statement.

iii.

When GFS cannot verify the identity of a customer, who is not an individual, by documentary or non-documentary methods stated above, GFS shall obtain information about individuals with authority or control over such account, such as persons authorized to effect transactions in the Shareholder or record’s account.

GFS must maintain records of all information obtained from customers to verify their identity, including at a minimum:

All customer identification documentations obtained under paragraph 1(a). Such information must be retained by GFS for five (5) years after the date the account is closed;

ii.

A description of any documentary method used to verify identification, as set out in paragraph b(i) above. GFS must note the type of documents, any identification number in the document, place of issuance and date of issuance. Such information must be retained by GFS for five (5) years after the record is made;

TRANSFER AGENCY SERVICE AGREEMENT

Schedule C – AML Customer Identification Program Delegation

iii.

A description of the non-documentary methods, as set out in paragraph b(ii) above, and results of the measures GFS took to verify the identity of the customer. Such information must be retained by GFS for five (5) years after the record is made; and

iv.

A description of how GFS resolved any substantive discrepancy it discovered when verifying the customer identification information it received. Such information must be retained by GFS for five (5) years after the record is made.

Other exempt account information as specified by the rules.

Within a reasonable time after GFS opens a customer account, and preferably prior to opening the account, GFS must make a determination as to whether the customer appears on any list of known or suspected terrorists or terrorist organizations as issued by any federal government agency and designated as such by the Department of the Treasury. GFS should make the determination by cross-checking customer names with such lists.

Company must post a notice on its website and its account applications in an effort to give customers notice, prior to opening the account, that GFS, for the Company , is requesting information to verify the customer’s identity. The notice must generally describe the identification requirements.
