WHEREAS, PNC Bank will assign all of its rights, title, interest, duties and
obligations under the Agreement to PFPC Trust Company ("PFPC"); and
WHEREAS, it is desirable to have the Fund consent to such assignment, and the

that it might otherwise be able to assert in connection with the
assignment. By consenting to the assignment, the Fund agrees (on behalf of
itself, its shareholders and any other persons claiming through the Fund)
(i) not to challenge or otherwise call into question the assignment, and
(ii) to look solely to PFPC for the performance of the duties or
obligations of the custodian and the satisfaction of any claims or rights
of the Fund under the Agreement that arise from the date of consent or
thereafter. In addition, notwithstanding anything set forth in the
Agreement, in consideration of the assignment the Fund agrees to waive and
release any and all claims or rights it may have against PNC Bank with
respect to the Agreement that arise from the date of consent or thereafter.
2. PFPC hereby makes the representations and agreements which are required to
be made by an assignee such as PFPC pursuant to the Agreement, to the
extent such representations and agreements are necessary to effect a valid
assignment of the Agreement to PFPC as described herein. In particular,
PFPC agrees to comply with all relevant provisions of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 which relate to its duties and obligations under the
Agreement (provided that PFPC will have no responsibility for compliance by
the Fund with such Act).
