(hereinafter called "Custodian"),
WHEREAS, the Funds desire that the securities and cash of each of its

An officer of the Funds will certify to Custodian the names and

Directors, together with any changes which may occur from time to time.
3. Additional Series
The Funds are authorized to issue separate investment portfolios or
series of shares. The parties intend that each portfolio established by the
Funds, now or in the future,
be covered by the terms and conditions of this agreement. The portfolios covered
by this agreement are set forth on schedule A, as it may be amended from time to
time.
4. Receipt and Disbursement of Money
A. Custodian shall open and maintain a separate account or
accounts in the name of the Funds, subject only to draft or order by Custodian
acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Custodian shall hold in such
account or accounts, subject to the provisions hereof, all cash received by it
from or for the account of the Funds, other than cash maintained by the Funds in
a bank account established and used in accordance with Rule 17f-3 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. Custodian shall make payments of cash to, or for
the account of, the Funds from such cash only:
(a) for the purchase of securities for the portfolio of the
Funds upon the delivery of such securities to Custodian,
registered in the name of the Funds or of the nominee of
Custodian referred to in Section 7 or in proper form for
transfer;
(b) for the purchase or redemption or repurchase of shares of
the common stock of the Funds upon delivery thereof to
Custodian, or upon proper instructions from the Funds;
(c) for the payment of interest, dividends, taxes, investment
adviser's fees or operating expenses (including, without
limitation thereto, fees for legal, accounting, auditing and
custodian services and expenses for printing and postage);
(d) for payments in connection with the conversion, exchange or
surrender of securities owned or subscribed to by the Funds
held by or to be delivered to Custodian; or
(e) for other proper corporate purposes certified by resolution
of the Board of Directors of the Funds.
Before making any such payment, Custodian shall receive (and may rely
upon) an officers' certificate requesting such payment and stating that it is
for a purpose permitted under the terms of item (a), (b), (c), or (d) of this
Subsection A, and also, in respect of item (e), upon receipt of an officers'
certificate, and a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Funds signed by an officer of the Funds and certified by its secretary or
assistant secretary, specifying the amount of such payment, setting forth the
purpose for which such payment is to be made, declaring such purpose to be a
proper corporate purpose, and naming the person or persons to whom such payment
is to be made, provided, however, that an officers' certificate and certified
Board resolution need not precede the disbursement of cash for the purpose of
purchasing a money market instrument, or any other security with the same or
next-day settlement, if the President, a Vice President, the Secretary or the
Treasurer of the Funds issues appropriate oral instructions to Custodian and an
appropriate officers' certificate is received by Custodian within two business
days thereafter.
-2-
B. Custodian is hereby authorized to endorse and collect all
checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money received by Custodian
for the account of the Funds.
C. Custodian shall, upon receipt of officers' certificate, make
federal funds available to the Funds as of specified times agreed upon from time
to time by the Funds and the custodian in the amount of checks received in
payment for shares of the Funds which are deposited into the Fund's account.
5. Segregated Accounts
Upon receipt of an officer's certificate, the Custodian shall
establish and maintain a segregated account(s) for and on behalf of the Funds,
into which account(s) may be transferred cash and/or securities.

sole power to release or deliver any securities of the Funds held by it pursuant
to this Agreement. Custodian agrees to transfer, exchange or deliver securities
held by it hereunder only:
(a) for sales of such securities for the account of the Funds
upon receipt by Custodian for payment therefore;
(b) when such securities are called, redeemed or retired or
otherwise become payable;
(c) for examination by any broker selling any such securities in
accordance with "street delivery" custom;
(d) in exchange for, or upon conversion into, other securities
alone or other securities and cash whether pursuant to any

(e) upon conversion of such securities pursuant to their terms
into other securities;

by the Funds, but only against receipt of adequate

and the Funds, which may be in the form of cash or
obligations issued by the United States government, its
agencies or instrumentalities;
(k) for delivery as security in connection with any borrowings
by the Funds requiring a pledge of assets by the Funds, but
only against receipt of amounts borrowed;
(l) for delivery in accordance with the provisions of any
agreement among the Funds, the Custodian and a broker-dealer
registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the
"Exchange Act") and a member of The National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), relating to compliance
with the rules of The Options Clearing Corporation and of
any registered national securities exchange, or of any
similar organization or organizations, regarding escrow or
other arrangements in connection with transactions by the
Funds;
(m) for delivery in accordance with the provisions of any
agreement among the Funds, the Custodian, and a Futures
Commission Merchant registered under the Commodity Exchange
Act, relating to compliance with the rules of the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission and/or any Contract Market, or
any similar organization or organizations, regarding account
deposits in connection with transactions by the Funds; or
(n) for other proper corporate purposes.
As to any deliveries made by Custodian pursuant to items (a), (b),
(d), (e), (f), and (g), securities or cash receivable in exchange therefor shall
be deliverable to Custodian.
Before making any such transfer, exchange or delivery, Custodian shall
receive (and may rely upon) an officers' certificate requesting such transfer,
exchange or delivery, and stating that it is for a purpose permitted under the
terms of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j), (k), (l), or
(m) of this Section 6 and also, in respect of item (n), upon receipt of an
officers' certificate, and a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Funds signed by an officer of the corporation and certified by
its secretary or assistant secretary, specifying the securities to be delivered,
setting forth the purpose for which such delivery is to be made, declaring such
purpose to be a proper corporate purpose, and naming the person or persons to
whom delivery of such securities shall be made, provided, however, that an
-4-
officers' certificate need not precede any such transfer, exchange or delivery
of a money market instrument, or any other security with same or next-day
settlement, if the President, a Vice President, the Secretary or the Treasurer
of the Funds issues appropriate oral instructions to Custodian and an
appropriate officers' certificate is received by Custodian within two business
days thereafter.
7. Custodian's Acts Without Instructions
Unless and until Custodian receives an officers' certificate to the
contrary, Custodian shall: (a) present for payment all coupons and other income
items held by it for the account of the Funds, which call for payment upon
presentation and hold the cash received by it upon such payment for the account
of the Funds; (b) collect interest and cash dividends received, with notice to
the Funds, for the account of the Funds; (c) hold for the account of the Funds
hereunder all stock dividends, rights and similar securities issued with respect
to any securities held by it hereunder; and (d) execute, as agent on behalf of
the Funds, all necessary ownership certificates required by the Internal Revenue
Code or the Income Tax Regulations of the United States Treasury Department or
under the laws of any state now or hereafter in effect, inserting the Funds'
name on such certificates as the owner of the securities covered thereby, to the
extent it may lawfully do so.
8. Registration of Securities
Except as otherwise directed by an officers' certificate, Custodian
shall register all securities, except such as are in bearer form, in the name of
a registered nominee of Custodian as defined in the Internal Revenue Code and
any Regulations of the Treasury Department issued hereunder or in any provision
of any subsequent federal tax law exempting such transaction from liability for
stock transfer taxes, and shall execute and deliver all such certificates in
connection therewith as may be required by such laws or regulations or under the
laws of any state. Custodian shall use its best efforts to the end that the
specific securities held by it hereunder shall be at all times identifiable in
its records.
The Funds shall from time to time furnish to Custodian appropriate
instruments to enable Custodian to hold or deliver in proper form for transfer,
or to register in the name of its registered nominee, any securities which it
may hold for the account of the Funds and which may from time to time be
registered in the name of the Funds.
9. Voting and Other Action
Neither Custodian nor any nominee of Custodian shall vote any of the
securities held hereunder by or for the account of the Funds, except in
accordance with the instructions contained in an officers' certificate.
Custodian shall promptly deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the
Corporation all notices, proxies and proxy soliciting materials with relation to
such securities, such proxies to be executed by the registered holder of such
securities (if registered otherwise than in the name of the Funds), but without
indicating the manner in which such proxies are to be voted.
-5-
10. Transfer Tax and Other Disbursements
The Funds shall pay or reimburse Custodian from time to time for any
transfer taxes payable upon transfers of securities made hereunder, and for all
other necessary and proper disbursements and expenses made or incurred by
Custodian in the performance of this Agreement.
Custodian shall execute and deliver such certificates in connection
with securities delivered to it or by it under this Agreement as may be required
under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and any Regulations of the
Treasury Department issued thereunder, or under the laws of any state, to exempt
from taxation any exemptable transfers and/or deliveries of any such securities.
11. Concerning Custodian
Custodian shall be paid as compensation for its services pursuant to
this Agreement such compensation as may from time to time be agreed upon in
writing between the two parties. Until modified in writing, such compensation
shall be as set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto Commission. If the Funds
elect to terminate this Agreement prior to the third anniversary of this
Agreement, the Funds agree to reimburse Agent for the difference between the
standard fee schedule and the discounted fee schedule agreed to between the
parties.
Custodian shall exercise reasonable care and diligence, act in good
faith and use its best efforts within reasonable limits in the performance of
its duties under this agreement. Custodian shall not be liable for any action
taken in good faith upon any officers' certificate herein described or certified
copy of any resolution of the Board, and may rely on the genuineness of any such
document which it may in good faith believe to have been validly executed.
The Funds agree to indemnify and hold harmless Custodian and its
nominee from all taxes, charges, expenses, assessments, claims and liabilities
(including reasonable counsel fees) incurred or assessed against it or by its
nominee in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except such as may
arise from its or its nominee's own negligent action, negligent failure to act
or willful misconduct. Custodian is authorized to charge any account of the
Funds for such items.
In the event of any advance of cash for any purpose made by Custodian
resulting from orders or instructions of the Funds, or in the event that
Custodian or its nominee shall incur or be assessed any taxes, charges,
expenses, assessments, claims or liabilities in connection with the performance
of this Agreement, except such as may arise from its or its nominee's own
negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, any property
at any time held for the account of the Funds shall be security therefore.
Custodian agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Funds from all
charges, expenses, assessments, and claims/liabilities (including counsel fees)
incurred or assessed
-6-
against it in connection with the performance of this agreement, except such as
may arise from the Funds' own negligent action, negligent failure to act, or
willful misconduct.
12. Subcustodians
Custodian is hereby authorized to engage another bank or trust company
as a Subcustodian for all or any part of the Funds' assets in accordance with
the terms of this agreement, so long as any such bank or trust company is (i) a
bank or trust company organized under the laws of any state of the United
States, having an aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profit, as shown by
its last published report, of not less than Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) and
(ii) qualified to act as a custodian under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
and provided further that the use of each such subcustodian shall be approved or
ratified by a vote of a majority of the Board of Directors of the Funds. If the
Custodian utilizes the services of a Subcustodian, the Custodian shall not be
relieved of any of its responsibilities hereunder by the appointment of such
Subcustodian and shall remain fully liable and responsible for the acts of the
Subcustodian and for any losses caused to the Funds by the Subcustodian as fully
as if the Custodian was directly responsible for any such acts or losses under
the terms of the Custodian Agreement.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein, if the Funds requires the
Custodian to engage specific Subcustodians for the safekeeping and/or clearing
of assets, the Funds agree to indemnify and hold harmless Custodian from all
claims, expenses and liabilities incurred or assessed against it in connection
with the use of such Subcustodian in regard to the Funds' assets, except as may
arise from its own negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful
misconduct.
13. Reports by Custodian
Custodian shall furnish the Funds periodically as agreed upon with a
statement summarizing all transactions and entries for the account of the Funds.
Custodian shall furnish to the Funds, at the end of every month, a list of the
portfolio securities showing the aggregate cost of each issue. The books and
records of Custodian pertaining to its actions under this Agreement shall be
open to inspection and audit at reasonable times by officers of, and of auditors
employed by, the Funds.
14. Termination or Assignment
This Agreement may be terminated by the Funds, or by Custodian, on
ninety (90) days notice, given in writing and sent by registered mail to
Custodian at X.X. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx 00000, or to the Funds at 00
Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx 00000, as the case may be. Upon any
termination of this Agreement, pending appointment of a successor to Custodian
or a vote of the shareholders of the Funds to dissolve or to function without a
custodian of its cash, securities and other property, Custodian shall not
deliver cash, securities or other property of the Funds to the Funds, but may
deliver them to a bank or trust company or its own selection, qualified to act
as a custodian under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and having an aggregate
capital, surplus and undivided
-7-
profits, as shown by its last published report of not less than Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000), as a Custodian for the Funds to be held under terms
similar to those of this Agreement, provided, however, that Custodian shall not
be required to make any such delivery or payment until full payment shall have
been made by the Funds of all liabilities constituting a charge on or against
the properties then held by Custodian or on or against Custodian, and until full
payment shall have been made to Custodian of all its fees, compensation, costs
and expenses, subject to the provisions of Section 10 of this Agreement.
This Agreement may not be assigned by Custodian without the consent of
the Funds, authorized or approved by a resolution of its Board of Directors.
15. Deposits of Securities in Securities Depositories
No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the use by
Custodian of a central securities clearing agency or securities depository,
provided, however, that Custodian and the central securities clearing agency or
securities depository meet all applicable federal and state laws and
regulations, and the Board of Directors of the Funds approves by resolution the
use of such central securities clearing agency or securities depository.
16. Records
To the extent that Custodian in any capacity prepared or maintains any
records required to be maintained and preserved by the Funds pursuant to the
provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder, Custodian agrees to make any such records
available to the Funds upon request and to preserve such records for the periods
prescribed in Rule 31a-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
