We are writing to inform you that pursuant to the terms of such agreement(s), OFI, in connection with an internal restructuring, desires to assign all of its interests, rights, duties, and obligations in and under the agreement(s) now in existence, as well as any prior agreements, written or oral, between or among you and OFI, including without limitation, all schedules, exhibits and licenses granted thereunder (collectively, the “Agreements”)’ to Shareholder Services, Inc. (“551”), a Colorado corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of OFI (the “Assignment”), and 551 desires to accept such Assignment, effective on or about December 31,2012 (“Effective Date”). Consequently, as of the Effective Date, notices, correspondence and any other communication required by or related to the Agreements, if currently to OppenheimerFunds, Inc., shall be delivered to:
