     (i)the surrendered certificate is drawn to the order of an assignee or holder and transfer authorization is signed by the recordholder;

16

    (ii)Transfer authorizations are signed by the  recordholder when Shares are held in book-entry form;

   (iii)Such redemption is through money market fund check-writing capabilities; or

   (iv)such redemption is in settlement of dealer confirmed redemptions via Fund/Serv.

Consistent with provisions set forth in the prospectus, redemption proceeds shall be wired upon request.  When a broker-dealer notifies BNY Mellon of a redemption desired by a customer, and the Fund's custodian provides BNY Mellon with funds, BNY Mellon shall prepare and send the redemption check to the broker-dealer, made payable to the broker-dealer on behalf of its customer.

BNY Mellon shall establish procedures reasonably designed to ensure that redemption requirements established by BNY Mellon and agreed to by the Fund have been met, including the receipt and examination of stock certificates and related endorsements, signature guarantees and obtaining any needed papers or documents, including a properly completed application, where required.  No redemptions in accounts represented in whole or in part by certificates shall be effected without cancellation of an adequate number of certificate Shares, if necessary.  No signature guarantees shall be acceptable if received by facsimile and signature guarantees must reasonably appear to have been provided by an eligible guarantor institution of a type described as such in the prospectus which is a participant in a medallion program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association or in instructions received from the Fund; provided, however, that BNY Mellon may accept a

17

signature guarantee received by facsimile if so instructed by Oral or Written Instructions.

    (ii)Confirmations of purchases and sales of Shares;

   (iii)Monthly or quarterly statements (with extra print lines for additional information, such as

18

additional dividend information, to shareholders), generally by the fifth business day after the dividend payable date, providing a combined check and statement to shareholders electing cash distributions;

   (iv)Dividend and distribution notices (at year-end, such notices will be upon Written Instructions);

   (v)Tax form information (upon Written Instructions);

   (vi)Forms W-9 or W-8 as appropriate;

  (vii)Prospectuses;

(viii)Account-related shareholder correspondence that is considered in BNY Mellon’s sole discretion to be routine; and

 (ix)Any other routine shareholder communications as agreed to between the Fund and BNY Mellon.

(f) Third Party Proxy Provider.  BNY Mellon shall assist the Fund in obtaining competitive bids for proxy services.  Proxy services shall be provided by a third party.  The Fund understands and agrees that BNY Mellon bears no responsibility for the provision of any proxy services or the manner in which any proxy services are provided, that BNY Mellon will not be considered the Fund’s agent in connection with the provision of any proxy services, and that any party providing proxy services to the Fund shall not be considered to be the agent of BNY Mellon or to have any other relationship with BNY Mellon with respect to such services.  Such proxy services, which will be decided upon solely between the Fund and the third party provider, shall include proxy mailing, receiving and tabulating proxy cards for the meetings of the Fund’s shareholders, communicating to the Fund daily and final results of such tabulation

19

accompanied by appropriate certificates, and preparing and furnishing to the Fund certified lists of shareholders as of such date, and in such form and containing such information as may be required by the Fund to comply with any applicable provisions of law or its Declaration of Trust and/or By-Laws relating to such meetings.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection (f), BNY Mellon shall furnish to the third-party proxy provider such information as is reasonably requested by such provider pertaining to shareholder registration information and record-date share positions to permit the Fund to obtain the benefits of the services necessary for conduct of its shareholder meetings.

(g)           Records.  BNY Mellon shall maintain records of the accounts for each shareholder showing the following information:

    (i)Name, address, United States Tax Identification or Social Security number, and any pertinent beneficiary information;

    (ii)Number and class of Shares held and number and class of Shares for which certificates, if any, have been issued, including certificate numbers and denominations;

   (iii)Historical information regarding the account of each shareholder, including dividends and distributions paid and the date and price for  all transactions in a shareholder's account;

   (iv)Any stop or restraining order placed against a  shareholder's account;

    (v)Any correspondence relating to the current maintenance of a shareholder's account;

   (vi)Information with respect to withholdings, including withholdings in the case of a foreign account and accounts subject to backup withholding; and

20

  (vii)Any information required in order for the transfer agent to perform any calculations contemplated or required by this Agreement.

BNY Mellon shall use its best efforts to convert for use in its system such data of the predecessor transfer agent that has been provided to BNY Mellon as shall permit BNY Mellon to maintain on its system such converted data covering a minimum of 18 months prior to commencement of its services as transfer agent of the Fund.  BNY Mellon is not responsible for errors or omissions in or caused by the records of any predecessor transfer agent.  BNY Mellon shall inform the Fund of material errors coming to its attention in the course of performance of its duties hereunder.  BNY Mellon shall maintain on its system in a readily viewable form pertinent account information (i.e., the information listed in this Section 16(g)) relating to shareholders of the Fund (including all predecessor transfer agent data delivered to BNY Mellon by the Fund’s prior transfer agent in a machine readable format and converted by BNY Mellon) for a minimum of 13 months after the date of the transaction or other matter to which the information relates and shall thereafter maintain such information in a readily accessible format to the extent required by the 1940 Act and other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations.

(h)           Lost or Stolen Certificates.  BNY Mellon shall place a stop notice against any certificate reported to be lost, stolen, destroyed or not received and comply with all applicable federal regulatory requirements for reporting such loss or alleged misappropriation.  A new certificate shall be registered and issued only upon:

   (ii)Completion of a release and indemnification agreement signed by the shareholder to protect BNY Mellon and its affiliates.

(i)           Shareholder Inspection of Fund Records.  Upon a  request from any Fund shareholder to inspect Fund records, BNY Mellon will notify the Fund and the Fund will issue instructions granting or denying each such request.  Unless BNY Mellon has acted contrary to the Fund's instructions, the Fund agrees and does hereby release BNY Mellon from any liability for refusal of permission for a particular shareholder to inspect the Fund's records.

(j)           Withdrawal of Shares and Cancellation of Certificates. Upon receipt of Written Instructions, BNY Mellon shall cancel outstanding certificates surrendered by the Fund to reduce the total amount of outstanding Shares by the number of Shares surrendered by the Fund.

(k)  Fraud Detection Procedures.  BNY Mellon shall establish procedures that are reasonably designed to detect fraudulent purchase, redemption and distribution checks (including fraudulent or forged endorsements and altered payment amounts); however, BNY Mellon shall have no liability for loss resulting from any fraud perpetrated or attempted to be perpetrated on the Fund, unless BNY Mellon has acted with willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard of its duties hereunder. Such procedures shall take into account the type of accounts involved, the sums involved and cost/benefit considerations.
