Re: SEC Rule 17f-5 and Rule 17f-7
Dear Sirs:
Reference is made to the Amended and Restated Custody Agreement dated as of
November 21, 1997 (the "Foreign Custody Agreement"), as amended, by and between
The Chase Manhattan Bank (as successor by operation of law to Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx
Trust Company) ("Custodian") and PFPC Trust Company ("PFPC"), for the
safekeeping of securities and cash received by the Custodian for the account of
PFPC on behalf of, inter alia, Penn Series Funds, Inc. ("Penn Series").
Reference is also made to the Amended and Restated Custodian Agreement between
PFPC and Penn Series, dated as of October 28, 1992 (the "Fund Custody
Agreement").
1. Rule 17f-5
----------
1.1.With respect to "Foreign Assets" (as that term is defined in
sub-section (a)(2) of Securities and Exchange Commission rule 17f-5 ("rule
17f-5") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"))
in such jurisdictions as Penn Series and the Custodian shall agree from time to
time, Penn Series hereby delegates to the Custodian, and the Custodian hereby
accepts and assumes, the duties of a "Foreign Custody Manager" as set forth in
rule 17f-5, which include, among other things :
(a) selecting Eligible Foreign Custodians (as that term is defined in
rule 17f-5(a)(1)), having first determined that Foreign Assets placed and
maintained in the safekeeping of each such Eligible Foreign Custodian
will be subject to reasonable care, based on the standards applicable to
custodians in the relevant market, and having considered all factors
relevant to the safekeeping of such Foreign Assets, including, without
limitation, the factors set forth in rule 17f-5(c)(1)(i)-(iv);
(b) entering into written contracts with each Eligible Foreign Custodian
that Custodian has determined will provide reasonable care for Foreign
Assets, based on the standards applicable to custodians in the relevant
market, and will provide the other protections to Penn Series stated in
rule 17f-5(c)(2); and
(c) establishing a system for monitoring the appropriateness of both
maintaining the Foreign Assets with each Eligible Foreign Custodian and
the custody contractual arrangements with such Eligible Foreign
Custodians, it being understood, however, that in the event that
Custodian shall have determined that the existing Eligible Foreign
Custodian in a given country no longer affords reasonable care to Foreign
Assets and that no other Eligible Foreign Custodian in that country would
afford reasonable care, Custodian shall promptly so advise Penn Series
and shall then act in accordance with authorized instructions with
respect to the disposition of the affected Foreign Assets.
1
For purposes of clarity, it is understood and agreed that Custodian shall not be
responsible for any Foreign Custody Manager duties, including but not limited to
those described in (a), (b) and (c) above, with respect to any securities
depository.
0.0.Xx acting as a Foreign Custody Manager, the Custodian shall exercise
reasonable care, prudence and diligence such as a person having responsibility
for the safekeeping of fund Foreign Assets would exercise. The Custodian's
liability to Penn Series hereunder shall be for Custodian's failure to exercise
such reasonable care, prudence and diligence, provided however that the
Custodian shall not be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages or
losses. PFPC will indemnify the Custodian for losses, liabilities and expenses
suffered by the Custodian with respect to the matters set forth in this
document, to the same extent that PFPC is required to indemnify the Custodian
for the Custodian's actions or inactions under the Foreign Custody Agreement
(including the limitations on indemnity set forth in the Foreign Custody
Agreement). Penn Series will indemnify PFPC for losses, liabilities and expenses
suffered by PFPC with respect to the matters set forth in this document, except
for such losses, liabilities and expenses which are the result of PFPC's
negligence or willful misconduct, and except for such losses, liabilities and
expenses which are the result of failure by the Custodian to exercise reasonable
care, prudence and diligence in acting as Foreign Custody Manager hereunder, and
except for any losses or damages the nature of which is or was remote,
unforeseen, unforeseeable and beyond the scope of reasonable anticipation, and
provided that the provisions of Section 21(b) of the Fund Custody Agreement
shall apply with respect to such indemnification. In no event shall PFPC be
responsible to Penn Series for the Custodian or for any action or inaction of
the Custodian under this document.
1.3.The Custodian shall provide the Board of Directors of Penn Series
(the "Board") with written reports notifying the Board of the placement of
Foreign Assets with a particular Eligible Foreign Custodian and of any material
changes in Penn Series' foreign custody arrangements. The reports shall be
provided at such times as the Board deems reasonable based on the circumstances
of the arrangements.
1.4.Subject to Sections 1.1 - 1.3 above, the Custodian is hereby
authorized to place and maintain Foreign Assets on behalf of Penn Series with
Eligible Foreign Custodians pursuant to a written contract deemed appropriate by
the Custodian.
0.0.Xx acting as a Foreign Custody Manager, the Custodian shall not
supervise, recommend or advise Penn Series relative to the investment, purchase,
sale, retention or disposition of any Foreign Assets in any country, including
with respect to prevailing country risks. At the request of Penn Series, the
Custodian shall provide to Penn Series or its adviser such information as is
specified in Appendix 1 hereto. Penn Series hereby acknowledges that: (i) such
information is solely designed to inform Penn Series or its adviser of market
conditions and procedures and is not intended as a recommendation to invest or
not invest in particular markets; and (ii) the Custodian has gathered the
information from sources it considers reliable, but that the Custodian shall
have no responsibility for inaccuracies or incomplete information.
2
2. Rule 17f-7
----------
2.1.(a) PFPC and Penn Series appoint the Custodian, for such
consideration (if any) as agreed, and as contemplated by Securities and Exchange
Commission rule 17f-7 ("rule 17f-7") under the 1940 Act, to provide an analysis
to Penn Series of the custody risks associated with maintaining Penn Series'
Foreign Assets with each "Eligible Securities Depository" (as that term is
defined in rule 17f-7(b)(1)) used by the Custodian as of the effective date of
this document (or, in the case of an Eligible Securities Depository not used by
the Custodian as of such date, upon the Custodian's use of such Depository after
such date) and at which any Foreign Assets of Penn Series are held or are
expected to be held. The foregoing analysis may be provided at the Custodian's
website. PFPC will also promptly provide a copy of the foregoing analysis to
Penn Series upon PFPC's receipt of such analysis from the Custodian. The
Custodian shall monitor the custody risks associated with maintaining Penn
Series' Foreign Assets at each such Eligible Securities Depository on a
continuing basis and shall promptly notify Penn Series or its adviser of any
material change in such risks.
2.2.Based on the information available to it in the exercise of
diligence, the Custodian shall determine the eligibility under rule 17f-7 of
each depository listed on Appendix B hereto (as the same may be changed by the
Custodian from time to time) and shall promptly advise Penn Series if any such
depository ceases to be eligible.
2.3.Penn Series acknowledges that it may maintain Foreign Assets only at
the depositories listed on Exhibit B hereto (as the same may be changed by the
Custodian from time to time). If Penn Series maintains Foreign Assets at a
depository listed on Exhibit B (including Foreign Assets maintained by Penn
Series at the time this document is entered into) or Penn Series enters into a
transaction with respect to Foreign Assets that as a matter of practice are or
may be maintained at a depository listed on Exhibit B, such action will (unless
Penn Series or its adviser provides written notice to the Custodian and PFPC
specifically stating that a particular depository is not acceptable to it) serve
as Penn Series' acknowledgement that such depository is acceptable to it.
2.4.The Custodian shall exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence
in performing services pursuant to Section 2 hereof. The Custodian's liability
to Penn Series hereunder shall be for Custodian's failure to exercise such
reasonable care, prudence and diligence, provided however that the Custodian
shall not be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages or losses.
PFPC will indemnify the Custodian for losses, liabilities and expenses suffered
by the Custodian with respect to the matters set forth in this document, to the
same extent that PFPC is required to indemnify the Custodian for the Custodian's
actions or inactions under the Foreign Custody Agreement (including the
limitations on indemnity set forth in the Foreign Custody Agreement). Penn
Series will indemnify PFPC for losses, liabilities and expenses suffered by PFPC
with respect to the matters set forth in this document, except for such losses,
liabilities and expenses which are the result of PFPC's negligence or willful
misconduct, and except for such losses, liabilities and expenses which are the
result of failure by the Custodian to exercise reasonable care, prudence and
diligence in performing services pursuant to Section 2 hereof, and except for
any losses or damages the nature of which is or was remote, unforeseen,
unforeseeable and beyond the scope of reasonable anticipation, and provided that
the provisions of Section 21(b) of the Fund Custody Agreement shall apply with
respect to such indemnification. In no event shall PFPC be responsible to Penn
Series for the Custodian or for any action or inaction of the Custodian under
this document. Penn Series and PFPC agree that PFPC's obligation to exercise
reasonable care, prudence and diligence in providing for the services set forth
in sub-section 2.1 above is satisfied by the appointment of the Custodian
hereunder to provide those services.

3. General
-------
3.1.Each party hereto represents that it has taken all requisite action
(corporate or otherwise) to authorize the execution and delivery of this
document, and in addition Penn Series represents that the Foreign Assets which
are the subject matter of this document are subject to the 1940 Act and that its
Board of Directors (or other governing body) has determined that it is
reasonable to rely on the Custodian to perform as Penn Series' Foreign Custody
Manager.
3.2.Notwithstanding the provisions of the Fund Custody Agreement, Penn
Series hereby agrees that assets may be maintained with any Eligible Foreign
Custodian referred to in sub-section 1.4 above and any Eligible Securities
Depository as defined in rule 17f-7(b)(1) (without the need to comply with any
notice or consent or other requirements which may be set forth in the Fund
Custody Agreement). PFPC will not be deemed to have chosen any such Eligible
Foreign Custodians or Eligible Securities Depositories.
0.0.Xx between the Custodian and PFPC, the Custodian and PFPC agree that
Section 2 of the Foreign Custody Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with
the following:
Property may be placed and maintained: (i) in custody and
deposit accounts that have been established by the Custodian
with one or more U.S. or foreign banks as listed on Exhibit A
hereto (which shall be "Eligible Foreign Custodians" as
defined in SEC rule 17f-5), and as such Exhibit may be amended
from time to time by the Custodian by written notice to the
Client (the "Subcustodians") and (ii) through the facilities
of the securities depositories (which shall be "Eligible
Securities Depositories" as defined in SEC rule 17f-7) listed
on Exhibit B hereto (as the same may be amended from time to
time) provided that the particular securities depository is
acceptable for the particular Account whose assets are to be
maintained at that securities depository (such acceptability
to be determined pursuant to Section 2.3 of the letter
agreement between the Custodian, the Client and the applicable
Account, which letter agreement is captioned "SEC Rule 17f-5
and Rule 17f-7"). At the request of Client, Custodian may, but
need not, add to Exhibit A an Eligible Foreign Custodian that
is a bank where Xxxxxxxxx has not acted as Foreign Custody
Manager with respect to the selection thereof. Custodian shall
notify Client in the event that it elects to add any such
entity. For purposes of the liability provisions of the
Agreement, the term Subcustodian shall not include any entity
so added. Custodian shall hold Property through a Subcustodian
only if (a) neither such Subcustodian nor any of its creditors
may assert any right, charge, security interest, lien,
encumbrance or other claim of any kind to the Property, except
a claim of payment for their safe custody or administration or
except in the case of cash deposits for liens or rights in
favor of creditors arising under bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar laws and (b) beneficial ownership of such Property may
be freely transferred without the payment of money or value
other than for safe custody or administration. Except where
contrary to local law or regulation, the Custodian or a
Subcustodian may hold Property at a securities depository only
if such Property is maintained by the Custodian or
Subcustodian in accounts identified as belonging to the
Custodian or Subcustodian (as applicable) for the benefit of
its clients and such accounts are subject only to instructions
of the Custodian or Subcustodian (as applicable). Property
held by the Custodian at a securities depository will be
identified on the Custodian's books as belonging to the Client
for the benefit of a particular Account.
4
3.4.The duties of the Custodian set forth herein are in addition to the
duties of the Custodian under the Foreign Custody Agreement.
3.5.This document shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. This
document may be executed by one or more of the parties hereto in any number of
separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be
deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.
3.6.This document shall apply only to Penn Series, and shall not apply to
any other customer of PFPC.
If the foregoing corresponds to your understanding of our agreement,
please indicate your acceptance by the signature of your authorized
representative below.
Yours truly,
THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK
