("BNYM"), Virtus Fund Services, LLC ("Company") and each of the "Funds", which is hereby defined to mean each of the Investment Companies and each Portfolio of each such Investment Company listed on Schedule B to the Current Agreement (as defined below).

Background

BNYM, the Company and the Funds subsequently entered into amendments to the Assigned Agreement, dated as of March 21, 2014, June 1, 2014, August 19, 2014, November 12, 2014, March 24, 2015, May 28, 2015, September 1, 2015, December 10, 2015 and July 27, 2016 (the Assigned Agreement as so amended being the "Current Agreement").

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties, intending to be legally bound, agree to all statements made above and as follows:

1.           Modifications to Current Agreement. The Current Agreement is hereby amended by deleting Section 13(b) and replacing it in its entirety with the following:

In the event a party provides a Non-Renewal Notice, this Agreement shall terminate at 11:59 PM (Eastern Time) on the last day of the Renewal Term. A Non-Renewal Notice from the Company shall constitute notice of termination of the Agreement in its entirety for the Company and all Funds and a Non-Renewal Notice from a Fund shall constitute a notice of termination of the Agreement solely with respect to the Fund providing the Non-Renewal Notice.

2.           Remainder of Current Agreement. Except as specifically modified by this Amendment, all terms and conditions of the Current Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
