(i) Period Covered by Request.  Requests must set forth a specific period, not to exceed 90 days from the date of the request, for which transaction information is sought. AFS may request transaction information older than 90 days from the date of the request as it deems necessary to investigate compliance with policies established by the Funds for the purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding Shares issued by the Funds.

(ii) Form and Timing of Response.  Intermediary agrees to transmit the requested information that is on its books and records to AFS or its

from shareholders who hold an account with an indirect intermediary; and (B) if directed by AFS, block further purchases of Fund Shares from such indirect intermediary. Responses required by this paragraph must be communicated in writing and in a format mutually agreed upon by the parties. To the extent practicable, the format for any transaction information provided to AFS should be consistent with the NSCC Standardized Data Reporting Format.

(iii) Limitations on Use of Information.  AFS agrees not to use the information received for marketing or any other similar purpose without the prior written consent of the Intermediary.

(b) Agreement to Restrict Trading.  Intermediary agrees to execute written instructions from AFS to restrict or prohibit further purchases or exchanges of Shares by a Shareholder that has been identified by AFS as having engaged in transactions of the Funds’ Shares (directly or indirectly through the Intermediary’s account) that violate policies established by the Funds for the purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding Shares issued by the Funds.

(i) Form of Instructions.  Instructions must include TIN, if known, and the specific restriction(s) to be executed. If the TIN is not known, the instructions must include an equivalent identifying number of the Shareholder(s) or account(s) or other agreed upon information to which the instruction relates.

(ii) Timing of Response.  Intermediary agrees to execute instructions as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than five business days after receipt of the instructions by the Intermediary.

(iii) Confirmation by Intermediary.  Intermediary must provide written confirmation to AFS that instructions have been executed.  Intermediary agrees to provide confirmation as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than 10 business days after the instructions have been executed.
