Dear Xx. Xxxxxxxxx:

This fee waiver and/or expense reimbursement (the “AFFE Fee Waiver”) set forth above: (i) supersedes any prior AFFE Fee Waiver for the Funds, (ii) is subject to the terms and conditions of the Investment Advisory Agreement, (iii) does not provide for the recoupment by SSGA FM of any amounts waived or reimbursed, and (iv) may only be terminated during the relevant period with the approval of the Funds’ Board of Trustees.

SSGA FM and the Funds’ Officers are authorized to take such actions as they deem necessary and appropriate to continue the above stated AFFE Fee Waivers for additional periods, including of one or more years, after the Expiration Date.

If this arrangement is acceptable to you, please sign below to indicate your acceptance and agreement and return a copy of this letter to me.
