4. Delivery and Registration of the Property. The Fund will deliver or cause to be delivered to Wachovia all Property it owns, including cash received for the issuance of its Shares, at any time during the period of this Agreement, except for Securities and monies to be delivered to any subcustodian appointed pursuant to Paragraph 7.

5. Voting and Other Rights.

a. The Fund shall exercise voting and other rights and powers for all Securities, however registered. Wachovia’s only duty shall be to mail for delivery on the next Business Day to the Fund any documents received, including proxy statements and offering circulars, with any proxies executed by the nominee for Securities registered in a nominee name. Wachovia reserves the right to provide any documents received, or parts thereof, in the language received.

Wachovia shall vote or cause proxies to be voted only as expressly directed in writing pursuant to Proper Instructions of the Fund’s Authorized Person. In the absence of Proper Instructions, neither Wachovia nor any subcustodian shall vote or cause proxies to be voted, and they shall expire without liability to Wachovia. Wachovia will not advise the Fund or act for the Fund in any legal proceedings, including bankruptcies, involving Securities the Fund holds or previously held or the issuers of these Securities, except as the Fund and Wachovia expressly agree upon in writing.

b. Wachovia shall transmit promptly to the Fund all written information (including, without limitation, pendency of calls and maturities of Securities and expirations of rights in connection therewith and notices of exercise of call and put options the Fund writes and the maturity of futures contracts the Fund purchases or sells) Wachovia receives from issuers of the Securities the Fund holds, or from an Eligible Foreign Custodian or Eligible Securities Depository holding Foreign Assets of the Fund. For tender or exchange offers, Wachovia shall transmit promptly by facsimile to the Fund all written information Wachovia receives from issuers of the Securities whose tender or exchange is sought and from the party (or its agents) making the tender or exchange offer, or from an Eligible Foreign Custodian or Eligible Securities Depository holding Foreign Assets of the Fund. If the Fund desires to take action on any tender offer, exchange offer or any other similar transaction, the Fund shall notify Wachovia at least three business days before the date on which Wachovia is to take action [five business days if the tender offer, exchange offer, or other similar transaction involves a Foreign Asset] or upon the date the Fund first receives the notification, if later. Absent Wachovia’s failure to promptly transmit such written information that it has received to the Fund, or absent Wachovia’s timely receipt of Proper Instructions, Wachovia shall not be liable for failure to take any action relating to or to exercise any rights the Securities confer.

-4-

c. Wachovia shall promptly notify the Fund of any rights or discretionary actions or of the date or dates by when the rights must be exercised or action must be taken provided that Wachovia has received, from the issuer, from persons making a tender or exchange offer, or from an Eligible Foreign Custodian or Eligible Securities Depository, or otherwise, timely notice of rights, discretionary corporate action, or dates. Absent actual receipt of this notice, Wachovia shall have no liability for failing to so notify the Fund.

6. Receipt and Disbursement of Money.

a. Wachovia shall open and maintain a custody account for the Fund (the “Account”) subject only to draft or order by Wachovia acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall hold in the Account, subject to the provisions in this Paragraph 6, all cash it receives by or for the Fund, other than cash the Fund maintains in a bank account established and used in accordance with Rule 17f-3 under the 1940 Act. Wachovia shall make payments of cash to, or for the account of, the Fund from cash only (i) for the purchase of Securities against delivery of such Securities except as provided in Paragraph 10; (ii) in the case of a purchase of Securities effected through a Book-Entry System or Securities Depository, in accordance with the conditions set forth in Paragraph 18; (iii) in the case of repurchase agreements entered into between the Fund and Wachovia, or another bank, or a broker-dealer which is a member of The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

b. Wachovia is hereby authorized to endorse and collect all checks, drafts or other orders for the payment of money received as custodian for the Fund.

7. Receipt and Delivery of Securities.

a. Except as provided in this Paragraph 7 and Paragraphs 8 and 9, Wachovia shall hold and segregate (physically, where Securities are held in certificate form) all Securities and non-cash Property it receives for the Fund. Wachovia will hold or dispose of all Securities and non-cash Property for the Fund pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the absence of Proper Instructions accompanied by a certified resolution of the Fund’s Board authorizing the specific transaction, Wachovia shall have no power or authority to withdraw, deliver, assign, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Securities and other Property, except in accordance with this Agreement. In no case may any director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Fund withdraw any Securities. Wachovia may, at its own expense, employ subcustodians for the receipt of certain non-Foreign Assets Wachovia is to hold for the account of the Fund pursuant to this Agreement; provided that each subcustodian has an aggregate capital, surplus and undivided profits, as shown by its last published report, of not less than twenty million dollars ($20,000,000) and that such subcustodian agrees with Wachovia to comply with all relevant provisions of the 1940 Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder. Wachovia will be liable for acts or omissions of any subcustodian to the same extent that Wachovia is liable to the Fund under this Agreement. Wachovia shall employ subcustodians upon receipt of Proper Instructions, but only in accordance with an applicable vote of the Board of the Fund.

b. When requested, Wachovia shall furnish the Fund with confirmations and a summary of all transfers to or from the account of the Fund during said day. Where Securities are transferred to the account of the Fund established at a Securities Depository or Book-Entry System, Wachovia shall also by book-entry or otherwise identify as belonging to the Fund (and a Portfolio) the quantity of Securities in a fungible bulk of Securities registered in the name of Wachovia (or its nominee) or shown in Wachovia’s account on the books of a Securities Depository or Book-Entry System. At least monthly and from time to time, Wachovia shall furnish the Fund with a detailed statement of the Property held for the Fund under this Agreement.

8. Scope of Responsibilities as Foreign Custody Manager.

a. Authorization. Subject to the terms and conditions herein, Wachovia is hereby authorized to: (i) place and maintain Foreign Assets on behalf of the Fund with Eligible Foreign Custodians pursuant to a written contract determined appropriate by Wachovia in accordance with the terms and conditions herein and (ii) withdraw Foreign Assets from Eligible Foreign Custodians in accordance with the terms and conditions herein.

b. Selection. Wachovia shall place and maintain Foreign Assets in the care of one or more Eligible Foreign Custodians. In performing its responsibilities to place and maintain Foreign Assets with an Eligible Foreign Custodian, Wachovia shall determine that the Eligible Foreign Custodian will hold Foreign Assets in the exercise of reasonable care, based on the standards applicable to custodians in the jurisdiction or market in which the Foreign Assets will

-6-

be held by that Eligible Foreign Custodian, after considering all factors relevant to the safekeeping of such assets, including, without limitation:

	(i)		the Eligible Foreign Custodian’s practices, procedures, and internal controls, including, but not limited to, the physical protections available for certificated securities (if applicable), its methods of keeping custodial records, its security and data protection practices, and its settlement practices;

	(iii)		the Eligible Foreign Custodian’s general reputation and standing; and

	(iv)		whether the Fund will have jurisdiction over, and be able to enforce judgments against, the Eligible Foreign Custodian in the United States.

c. Contracts. Wachovia shall ensure that the Fund’s foreign custody arrangements with each Eligible Foreign Custodian are governed by a written contract with such Eligible Foreign Custodian. Wachovia shall determine that the written contract governing the foreign custody arrangements with each Eligible Foreign Custodian that Wachovia selects will provide reasonable care for Foreign Assets held by that Eligible Foreign Custodian. Each written contract will include terms that provide:

	(i)		for indemnification and/or insurance arrangements that will adequately protect the Fund against the risk of loss of the Foreign Assets held in accordance with such contract;

	(ii)		that the Foreign Assets will not be subject to any right, charge, security interest, lien or claim of any kind in favor of the Eligible Foreign Custodian or its creditors, except a claim for the Eligible Foreign Custodian’s services under the contract or, in the case of cash deposits, liens or rights in favor of creditors of such Eligible Foreign Custodian arising under bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws;

	(iii)		that beneficial ownership of the Foreign Assets will be freely transferable without the payment of money or value, other than payments for the Eligible Foreign Custodian’s safe custody or administration services under the contract;

	(iv)		that the Eligible Foreign Custodian will maintain adequate records identifying the Foreign Assets held under the contract as belonging to a Portfolio or as being held by a third party for the benefit of a Portfolio;

-7-

	(v)		that the Fund’s independent public accountants will be given access to those records or confirmation of the contents of those records;

	(vi)		that the Fund will receive periodic reports with respect to the safekeeping of the Foreign Assets, including, but not limited to, notification of any transfer of the Foreign Assets to or from the account of a Portfolio or a third party account containing the Foreign Assets held for the benefit of a Portfolio; and

	(vii)		that the Eligible Foreign Custodian will indemnify and hold harmless Wachovia (or its agent) or the Fund from and against any loss, expense, liability or claim incurred by Wachovia (or its agent) or the Fund to the extent such loss, expense, liability or claim arises from the Eligible Foreign Custodian’s negligence or willful misconduct.

or, in lieu of any or all of the terms set forth in (i) through (vi) above, such other terms that Wachovia determines will provide, in their entirety, the same or greater level of care and protection for the Foreign Assets as the provisions set forth in (i) through (vi) above in their entirety.

d. Monitoring. Wachovia will establish and maintain a system to monitor: (i) the appropriateness of maintaining Foreign Assets with each Eligible Foreign Custodian; (ii) Material Changes to the Fund’s foreign custody arrangements, as defined in paragraph (f) below; and (iii) the performance of the contracts described in subparagraph c. above (the “Monitoring System”).

e. Withdrawing Fund Assets. In the event that a foreign custody arrangement no longer meets the terms and conditions set forth in Rule 00x-0, Xxxxxxxx will promptly notify the Fund and will then act in accordance with the Fund’s Proper Instructions with respect to the disposition of the affected Foreign Assets. Under exigent circumstances, however, Wachovia is authorized to withdraw Foreign Assets if, after first notifying the Fund, forty-eight (48) hours has passed without receiving a response to the notification from an Authorized Person.

f. Reporting Requirements. Wachovia shall notify the Board of the placement of Foreign Assets with an Eligible Foreign Custodian and any Material Changes in the Fund’s foreign custody arrangements by providing a written report to the Board at the end of each calendar quarter or at such times as the Fund’s trustees deem reasonable and appropriate. With respect to Material Changes, Wachovia shall provide the Board with a written report promptly after the occurrence of the Material Change. “Material Changes” include, but are not limited to: a decision to remove all Foreign Assets from a particular subcustodian; any event that may adversely and materially affect an Eligible Foreign Custodian’s financial or operational strength; Wachovia’s inability to perform its duties in accordance with the standard of care under this Paragraph 8; a change in control of an Eligible Foreign Custodian; the failure of an Eligible Foreign Custodian to comply with the standards in the the guidelines set forth in paragraph 8(c) above (the “Guidelines”), the terms of Rule 17f-5, its contract governing the Fund’s foreign custody arrangements; any material change in any contract governing the Fund’s foreign custody

-8-

arrangements; the failure of Wachovia or a foreign custody arrangement to meet the standards in Rule 17f-5 or the Guidelines; any event that may adversely affect Wachovia’s ability to comply with the Guidelines or Rule 17f-5; and a material change in any information provided to the Board regarding Wachovia’s expertise in foreign custody issues and risks, Wachovia’s use of third party experts to perform its foreign custody responsibilities, the Board’s ability to monitor Wachovia’s performance, Wachovia’s financial strength or its ability to indemnify the Fund.

g. Provision of Information. Wachovia shall provide to the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) such information as is specified in Exhibit A hereto, as may be amended from time to time by the parties. The Fund hereby acknowledges that such information is solely designed to inform the Fund of market conditions and procedures, but is not intended to influence the Fund’s investment decisions (or those of its investment adviser(s)). Wachovia will use reasonable care in gathering such information. Wachovia agrees to promptly notify the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) at the time that Wachovia becomes aware of a material change to the information provided or if Wachovia learns that any information previously provided is incomplete or inaccurate. Wachovia will provide to the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) upon reasonable request a written statement as may reasonably be required to document its compliance with the terms of this Agreement, as well as information regarding the following factors: (i) Wachovia’s expertise in foreign custody issues and risks; (ii) Wachovia’s use of third party experts to perform its foreign custody responsibilities; (iii) the Board’s ability to monitor Wachovia’s performance; and (iv) Wachovia’s financial strength and its ability to indemnify the Fund if necessary. With respect to each Eligible Foreign Custodian employed by the Fund under Paragraph 8.i below, Wachovia agrees to provide to the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) any information it possesses regarding Country Risk or the risks associated with placing or maintaining Foreign Assets with the Eligible Foreign Custodian.

h. Standard of Care as Foreign Custody Manager. In performing its delegated responsibilities as the Fund’s Foreign Custody Manager, Wachovia agrees to exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence such as a person having responsibility for the safekeeping of a Portfolio’s Foreign Assets under the 1940 Act would exercise. In particular, regardless of whether assets are maintained in the custody of an Eligible Foreign Custodian or an Eligible Securities Depository, Wachovia shall be liable to the Fund for the acts or omissions of an Eligible Foreign Custodian where that Eligible Foreign Custodian has not acted with reasonable care.

i. Direction of Eligible Foreign Custodians. The Fund may direct Wachovia to place and maintain Foreign Assets with a particular Eligible Foreign Custodian. In such event, Wachovia will have no duties under this Paragraph 8 with respect to such arrangement, except those included under Paragraph 8.g and those that it may undertake specifically in writing.

j. Best Customer. If at any time Wachovia is or becomes a party to an agreement to serve as Foreign Custody Manager to an investment company that provides for either: (i) a standard of care with respect to the selection of Eligible Foreign Custodians in any jurisdiction higher than that set forth in Paragraph 8.a., or (ii) a standard of care with respect to exercise of Wachovia’s duties other than that set forth in Paragraph 8.b., Wachovia agrees to notify the Fund

-9-

of this fact and to raise the applicable standard of care hereunder to the standard specified in such other agreement.

k. Condition Precedent. As a condition precedent to Wachovia’s performance under this Paragraph 8, the Fund shall deliver to Wachovia a certificate from the Fund’s secretary containing the resolution of the Board regarding the Board’s determination that it is reasonable to rely on Wachovia to perform the responsibilities delegated pursuant to this Agreement to Wachovia as Foreign Custody Manager of the Fund.

l. Limitations. Wachovia shall have only such duties as are expressly set forth herein. In no event shall Wachovia be liable for any Country Risks associated with investments in a particular country.

m. Representations with respect to Rule 17f-5. Wachovia represents to the Fund that it is a U.S. Bank.

9. Eligible Securities Depositories; Compliance with Rule 17f-7. Wachovia shall provide an analysis of the custody risks associated with maintaining the Fund’s Foreign Assets with each Eligible Securities Depository prior to the initial placement of the Fund’s Foreign Assets at such Depository and at which any Foreign Assets of the Fund are held or are expected to be held. Wachovia shall monitor the custody risks associated with maintaining the Fund’s Foreign Assets at each such Eligible Securities Depository on a continuing basis and shall promptly notify the Fund and its advisers of any material changes in such risks. Wachovia shall exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence in performing the requirements set forth in this Paragraph. Based on the information available to it in the exercise of the foregoing standard of care, Wachovia shall determine the eligibility under Rule 17f-7 of each Depository before including it on Exhibit B hereto and shall promptly advise the Fund (and its investment adviser(s)) if any Eligible Securities Depository ceases to be eligible and will withdraw the Fund’s foreign assets from the depository as soon as reasonably practical. For purposes of this Paragraph 9, the Fund (and its investment adviser(s)) shall be deemed to have considered the Country Risk as is incurred by placing and maintaining Foreign Assets in each country in which each such Eligible Securities Depository operates. Wachovia’s responsibilities under this Paragraph 9 shall not include, or be deemed to include, any evaluation of Country Risks associated with investment in a particular country.

10. Foreign Market Transactions. The Fund agrees that all settlements of Foreign Assets transactions shall be transacted in accordance with the local laws, customs, market practices and procedures to which Eligible Foreign Custodians and Eligible Securities Depositories are subject in each Foreign Market, including, without limitation, delivering Foreign Assets to the purchaser, dealer, or an agent for such purchaser or dealer, with the expectation of receiving later payment for the Foreign Assets from the purchaser, dealer, or agent. Wachovia shall provide a report of settlement practices in Foreign Markets as described in Exhibit A.

11. Pledge or Encumbrance of Securities or Cash. Except as provided in this Agreement, Wachovia may not pledge, assign, hypothecate or otherwise encumber Securities or cash in any Account without the Fund’s prior written consent.

-10-

12. Segregated Account. Wachovia shall upon receipt of Proper Instructions establish and maintain a segregated account or accounts for and on behalf of the Fund, into which account or accounts may be transferred cash and/or Securities, including Securities that Wachovia maintains in an account pursuant to Paragraph 6: (i) in accordance with the provisions of any agreement among the Fund, Wachovia and a broker-dealer registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and a member of the NASD (or any futures commission merchant registered under the Commodity Exchange Act) relating to compliance with the rules of the Options Clearing Corporation and of any registered national securities exchange (or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or any registered contract market), or of any similar organization or organizations, regarding escrow or other arrangements in connection with Fund transactions, (ii) for purposes of segregating cash or government securities in connection with options the Fund purchases, sells or writes or commodity futures contracts or options thereon that the Fund purchases or sells, (iii) for the purposes of the Fund’s compliance with the procedures set out in 1940 Act Release No. 10666, or any subsequent release or releases of the SEC relating to registered investment companies’ maintenance of segregated accounts; and (iv) for other proper corporate purposes, but only, in the case of clause (iv), upon receipt of, in addition to Proper Instructions, a certified copy of a resolution of the Board or of the Executive Committee signed by an officer of the Fund and certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, setting forth the purpose or purposes of the segregated account and declaring the purposes to be proper corporate purposes.

13. Foreign Exchange.

a. For the purpose of settling Securities and foreign exchange transactions, the Fund shall provide Wachovia with sufficient immediately available funds for all transactions by such time and date as conditions in the relevant market dictate. As used herein, “sufficient immediately available funds” shall mean either (i) sufficient cash denominated in the currency of the Fund’s home jurisdiction to purchase the necessary foreign currency, or (ii) sufficient applicable foreign currency to settle the transaction. Wachovia shall provide the Fund with immediately available funds, which result from the actual settlement of all sale transactions each day, based upon advices Wachovia receives from the Fund’s Eligible Foreign Custodians and Eligible Securities Depositories. Such funds shall be in the currency of the Fund’s home jurisdiction or such other currency as the Fund may specify to Wachovia.

b. Any foreign exchange transaction Wachovia effects in connection with this Agreement may be entered with Wachovia acting as principal or otherwise through customary banking channels. The Fund may issue standing Proper Instructions with respect to foreign exchange transactions but Wachovia may establish rules or limitations concerning any foreign exchange facility made available to the Fund. The Fund shall bear all risks of investing in Securities or holding cash denominated in a foreign currency. In particular (and except to the extent that this paragraph is inconsistent with paragraphs 8 or 9), the Fund shall bear the risks that (i) a transfer to, by or for the account of the Fund of Securities or cash held outside the Fund’s jurisdiction or denominated in a currency other than its home jurisdiction, or (ii) the conversion of cash from one currency into another, may be prohibited, limited, or be subject to burdens or costs, because of (w) Eligible Securities Depository rules or procedures, (x) exchange controls, (y) asset freezes, or (z) other laws, rules, regulations or orders. Wachovia shall not be

obligated to substitute another currency for a currency (including a currency that is a component of a composite currency unit such as the Euro) whose transferability, convertibility or availability has been affected by such law, regulation, rule or procedure. Wachovia shall not be liable to the Fund of any loss resulting from any of the foregoing events.

14. Lending of Securities.

a. Promptly after the Fund or its agent lends Securities in the Fund’s account, the Fund shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Wachovia a certificate specifying (a) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities; (b) the number of shares or principal amount loaned; (c) the date of the loan and delivery; (d) the total amount to be delivered to Wachovia against the loan of the Securities, including the amount of the cash collateral and the premium, if any, separately identified; and (e) the name of the broker-dealer or financial institution to which the loan was made. Wachovia shall not lend Securities except as the Fund or its agent instructs. Wachovia shall deliver Securities so designated to the broker-dealer or financial institution to which the loan was made upon the receipt of the total amount designated as to be delivered against the loan of Securities. Wachovia may accept payment in connection with a delivery otherwise than through the Book-Entry System or a Depository only in the form of a certified or bank cashier’s check payable to the order of the Fund or Wachovia drawn on New York Clearing House funds and may deliver Securities in accordance with the customs prevailing among dealers in Securities.

b. Promptly after each termination of a loan of Securities, the Fund shall deliver to Wachovia a certificate specifying (a) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities to be returned; (b) the number of shares or principal amount to be returned; (c) the date of termination; (d) the total amount Wachovia is to deliver, including the amount of the cash collateral less any offsetting credits as described in the certificate; (e) the name of the broker-dealer or financial institution from which the Securities will be returned; and (f) whether the return is to be effected through the Book-Entry System or a Depository. Wachovia shall receive all Securities returned from a broker-dealer or other financial institution to which the Securities were loaned, and upon receipt thereof shall pay the total amount payable upon the return of the Securities as set forth in the certificate. Securities returned to Wachovia shall be held as they were before the loan.

15. Overdrafts or Indebtedness. If Wachovia in its sole discretion advances funds in any currency hereunder or if there shall arise for whatever reason an overdraft in a Fund (including, without limitation, overdrafts incurred in connection with the settlement of securities transactions, funds transfers or foreign exchange transactions) or if the Fund is for any other reason indebted to Wachovia, the Fund agrees to repay Wachovia on demand, upon reasonable notice, the amount of the advance, overdraft or indebtedness plus accrued interest at a rate Wachovia ordinarily charges to its institutional custody customers in the relevant currency. To secure repayment of the Fund’s and each third party’s obligations to Wachovia hereunder, the Fund hereby pledges and grants to Wachovia a continuing lien and security interest in, and right of set off against, all of the Fund’s right, title and interest in and to (a) all accounts in the Fund’s name and the securities, money and other property now or hereafter held in such accounts (including the proceeds thereof), (b) each account in respect of which, or for whose benefit the advance, overdraft or indebtedness relates and the securities, money and other property now or

-12-

hereafter held in such account (including the proceeds thereof), and (c) any other property at any time Wachovia holds for the account of the Fund. In this regard, Wachovia shall be entitled to all the rights and remedies of a pledgee and secured creditor under applicable laws, rules or regulations then in effect.

16. Use of Domestic Depository or the Book-Entry System.

a. The Fund shall deliver to Wachovia a certified resolution of the Directors or Trustees of the Fund approving, authorizing and instructing Wachovia on a continuous and ongoing basis, until Wachovia actually receives Proper Instructions to the contrary, (i) to deposit in a Depository or the Book-Entry System all Securities of the Fund eligible for deposit therein and (ii) to use a Depository or the Book-Entry System to the extent possible in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, including without limitation, settlements of the Fund’s purchases and sales of Securities, and deliveries and returns of securities collateral in connection with borrowings. Without limiting the generality of this use, it is agreed that the following provisions shall apply thereto:

b. Securities and any cash of the Fund deposited in a Securities Depository or Book-Entry System or subcustodian will at all times (1) be represented in an account of Wachovia in the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System (the “Account”) and (2) be segregated from any assets and cash Wachovia controls in other than a fiduciary or custodian capacity but may be commingled with other assets held in these capacities. Securities and cash Wachovia deposits in a Depository or Book-Entry System will be held subject to the rules, terms and conditions of the Depository or Book-Entry System. Securities and cash held through subcustodians shall be held subject to the terms and conditions of Wachovia’s agreements with the subcustodians. Wachovia shall identify on its books and records the Securities and cash belonging to the Fund, whether held directly or indirectly through Depositories, the Book-Entry System, or subcustodians. Wachovia shall not be responsible for Securities or cash until actually received. Wachovia will effect payment for Securities and receive and deliver Securities in accordance with accepted industry practices as set forth in (c) below, unless the Fund has given Wachovia Proper Instructions to the contrary.

c. Wachovia shall pay for Securities purchased for the account of the Fund upon (i) receipt of advice from the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System that the Securities have been transferred to the Fund, and (ii) the making of an entry on the records of Wachovia to reflect the payment and transfer for the account of the Fund. Upon receipt of Proper Instructions, Wachovia shall transfer Securities sold for the account of the Fund upon (i) receipt of advice from the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System that payment for the Securities has been transferred to the Account, and (ii) the making of an entry on the records of Wachovia to reflect the transfer and payment for the account of the Fund. Copies of all advices from the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System of transfers of Securities for the account of the Fund shall identify the Fund, and Wachovia shall maintain these copies for the Fund and provide them to the Fund at its request.

d. Wachovia shall provide the Fund with any report Wachovia obtains on the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System’s accounting system, internal accounting controls

-13-

and procedures for safeguarding Securities deposited in the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System.

e. All books and records Wachovia maintains that relate to the Fund’s participation in a Securities Depository or Book-Entry System will at all times during Wachovia’s regular business hours be open to the inspection of the Fund’s duly authorized employees or agents, and the Fund will be furnished with all information in respect of the services rendered to it as it may require.

f. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Wachovia shall be liable to the Fund for any loss or damage to the Fund resulting from any gross negligence, misfeasance or misconduct of Wachovia or any of its agents or of any of its or their employees in connection with its or their use of the Securities Depository or Book-Entry Systems or from failure of Wachovia or any agent to enforce effectively the rights it may have against the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System; at the election of the Fund on a case by case basis, it shall be entitled to be subrogated to the rights of Wachovia for any claim against the Securities Depository or Book-Entry System or any other person that Wachovia may have as a consequence of any loss or damage if and to the extent that the Fund has not been made whole for any loss or damage.

17. Instructions Consistent With The Declaration, etc.

a. Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, Wachovia shall act only upon Proper Instructions. Wachovia may assume that any Proper Instructions received hereunder are not in any way inconsistent with any provision of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust or By-Laws of the Fund or any vote or resolution of the Fund’s Trustees, or any committee thereof. Wachovia shall be entitled to rely upon any Proper Instructions it actually receives pursuant to this Agreement and which it reasonably believes an Authorized Person has given. The Fund agrees that Wachovia shall incur no liability in acting in good faith upon Proper Instructions that Wachovia reasonably believes an Authorized Person has given to Wachovia. The Fund agrees to forward to Wachovia Proper Instructions confirming oral instructions by the close of business of the same day that the oral instructions are given to Wachovia. However, the Fund agrees that where Wachovia does not receive confirming Proper Instructions or receives contrary Proper Instructions, the validity or enforceability of transactions the oral instructions authorize and which Wachovia carries out shall not be affected.

b. In accordance with instructions from the Fund, as accepted industry practice requires or as Wachovia may elect in effecting Proper Instructions, Wachovia shall be deemed to make a loan to the Fund, payable on demand, bearing interest at a rate it customarily charges for similar loans, when Wachovia advances cash or other Property, arising from the purchase, sale, redemption, transfer or other disposition of Property of the Fund, or in connection with the disbursement of funds to any party, or in payment of fees, expenses, claims or liabilities the Fund owes to Wachovia, or to any other party that has secured judgment in a court of law against the Fund which creates an overdraft in the accounts or over-delivery of Property.

c. The Fund agrees that test arrangements, authentication methods or other security

-14-

devices to be used for Proper Instructions which the Fund may give by telephone, telex, TWX, facsimile transmission, bank wire or through an electronic instruction system, shall be processed in accordance with terms and conditions for the use of the arrangements, methods or devices as Wachovia may put into effect and modify from time to time. The Fund shall safeguard any test keys, identification codes or other security devices which Wachovia makes available to the Fund and agrees that the Fund shall be responsible for any loss, liability or damage Wachovia or the Fund incurs as a result of Wachovia’s acting in accordance with instructions from any unauthorized person using the proper security device unless the loss, liability or damage was incurred as a result of Wachovia’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. Wachovia may, but is not obligated to, electronically record any instructions given by telephone and any other telephone discussions about the Account.

18. Transactions Not Requiring Instructions. Wachovia is authorized to take the following action without Instructions:

a. Collection of Income and Other Payments. Wachovia shall:

i. collect and receive on a timely basis for the account of the Fund, all income and other payments and distributions, including (without limitation) stock dividends, rights, warrants and similar items, included or to be included in the Property of the Fund, and promptly advise the Fund of the receipt and shall credit the income, as collected, to the Fund. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Wachovia shall detach and present for payment all coupons and other income items requiring presentation as and when they become due and shall collect interest when due on Securities held hereunder. Income due the Fund on Securities loaned pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 17 shall be the responsibility of the Fund. Wachovia will have no duty or responsibility in connection therewith, other than to provide the Fund with information or data as may be necessary to assist the Fund in arranging for the timely delivery to Wachovia of the income to which the Fund is properly entitled. From time to time, Wachovia may elect, but shall not be so obligated, to credit the Account with interest, dividends or principal payments on payable or contractual settlement date, in anticipation of receiving the same from a payor, central depository, broker or other agent the Fund or Wachovia employs. Any such crediting and posting shall be at the Fund’s sole risk, and Wachovia shall be authorized to reverse any advance posting in the event Wachovia does not receive good funds from any payor, central depository, broker or agent of the Fund;

ii. endorse and deposit for collection in the name of the Fund, checks, drafts, or other orders for the payment of money on the same day as received;

iii. receive and hold for the account of the Fund all Securities the Fund receives as a result of a stock dividend, share split-up or reorganization, recapitalization, readjustment or other rearrangement or distribution of rights or similar securities issued with respect to any Securities of the Fund Wachovia holds hereunder;

iv. present for payment and collect the amount payable upon all Securities which may mature or be called, redeemed or retired, or otherwise become payable on the date the Securities become payable;

-15-

v. take any action which may be necessary and proper in connection with the collection and receipt of the income and other payments and the endorsement for collection of checks, drafts and other negotiable instruments;

vi. effect an exchange of the shares where the par value of stock is changed, and to surrender Securities at maturity or when advised of an earlier call for redemption or when Securities otherwise become available, against payment therefore in accordance with accepted industry practice. The Fund understands that Wachovia subscribes to one or more nationally recognized services that provide information on calls for redemption of bonds or other corporate actions. Wachovia shall transmit promptly to the Fund written information with respect to materials received by Wachovia (or its agent) via Eligible Foreign Custodians from issuers of the foreign securities being held for the Fund (such as pendency of calls and maturities of foreign securities and expirations of rights in connection therewith). With respect to tender or exchange offers on foreign securities, Wachovia shall transmit promptly to the Fund written information with respect to materials so received by Wachovia from issuers of the foreign securities whose tender or exchange is sought or from the party (or its agents) making the tender or exchange offer. Wachovia will use reasonable care in facilitating the exercise of voting and other shareholder rights by the Fund, subject always to the laws, regulations and practical constraints that may exist in the country where such securities are issued. The Fund acknowledges that local conditions, including lack of regulation, onerous procedural obligations, lack of notice and other factors may have the effect of severely limiting the ability of the Fund to exercise shareholder rights. Subject to the foregoing acknowledgement and the standard of care to which Wachovia is held under this Agreement, Wachovia shall not be liable for any untimely exercise of any tender, exchange or other right or power in connection with foreign securities or other property of the Fund at any time held by it unless Wachovia receives Proper Instructions from the Fund with regard to the exercise of any such right or power at least two New York business days before the date on which Wachovia is to take action to exercise such right or power.

Wachovia shall have no duty to notify the Fund of any rights, duties, limitations, conditions or other information set forth in any Security (including mandatory or optional put, call and similar provisions), but Wachovia shall forward to the Fund any notices or other documents subsequently received in regard to any security. When fractional shares of stock of a declaring corporation are received as a stock distribution, unless specifically instructed to the contrary in writing, Wachovia is authorized to sell the fraction received and credit the Fund’s account. Unless specifically instructed to the contrary in writing, Wachovia is authorized to exchange Securities in bearer form for Securities in registered form. If the Fund owns Property that is registered in the name of a nominee of Wachovia and the issuer of any such Property calls the Property for partial redemption, Wachovia is authorized to allot the called portion to the beneficial holders of the Property in a manner it deems fair and equitable in its sole discretion;

vii. forward to the Fund copies of all information or documents that it may receive from an issuer of Securities which, in the opinion of Wachovia, are intended for the Fund as the beneficial owner of Securities; and

viii. execute, as Wachovia, any certificates of ownership, affidavits,

-16-

declarations or other certificates for all foreign governments, federal and state tax purposes in connection with the collection or receipt of income, bond and note coupons, or other payments from Securities or in connection with transfers of Securities.

b. Miscellaneous Transactions. Wachovia is authorized to deliver or cause to be delivered Property against payment or other consideration or written receipt therefore in the following cases:

i. for examination by a broker selling for the Account of the Fund in accordance with street delivery custom;

ii. for the exchange of interim receipts or temporary Securities for definitive securities; and

iii. for transfer of Securities into the name of the Fund or Wachovia or a nominee of either, or to the issuer thereof for exchange of Securities for a different number of bonds, certificates, or other evidence, representing the same aggregate face amount or number of units bearing the same interest rate, maturity date and call provisions, if any; provided that, in any case, the new Securities are to be delivered to Wachovia.

19. Transactions Requiring Instructions. In addition to the actions requiring Proper Instructions set forth in this Agreement, upon receipt of Proper Instructions and not otherwise, Wachovia, directly or through the use of a Depository or the Book-Entry System, shall:

a. Execute and deliver to the persons as may be designated in Proper Instructions, proxies, consents, authorizations, and any other instruments whereby the authority of the Fund as owner of any Securities may be exercised;

b. Deliver any Securities held for the Fund against receipt of other Securities or cash issued or paid in connection with the liquidation, reorganization, refinancing, merger, consolidation or recapitalization of any corporation, or the exercise of any conversion privilege;

c. Deliver any Securities held for the Fund to any protective committee, reorganization committee or other person in connection with the reorganization, refinancing, merger, consolidation, recapitalization or sale of assets of any corporation, against receipt of certificates of deposit, interim receipts or other instruments or documents as may be issued to it to evidence delivery;

d. Make transfers or exchanges of the assets of the Fund and take such other steps as shall be stated in the instructions to effectuate any duly authorized plan of liquidation, reorganization, merger, consolidation or recapitalization of the Fund;

e. Release Securities belonging to the Fund to any bank or trust company for the purpose of pledge or hypothecation to secure any loan the Fund incurs; provided, however, that securities shall be released only upon payment to Wachovia of the monies borrowed or upon receipt of adequate collateral as the Fund and Wachovia agree, which may be in cash or

-17-

obligations issued by the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities, except that in cases where additional collateral is required to secure a borrowing already made, subject to proper prior authorization, further securities may be released for that purpose; and pay the loan upon redelivery to it of the securities pledged or hypothecated therefore and upon surrender of the note or notes evidencing the loan;

f. Deliver Securities in accordance with the provisions of any agreement among the Fund, Wachovia and a broker-dealer registered under the Exchange Act and a member of the 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 Fund transactions;

g. Deliver Securities in accordance with the provisions of any agreement among the Fund, Wachovia 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 Fund transactions;

h. Surrender, in connection with their exercise, warrants, rights or similar Securities, provided that in each case, the new Securities and cash, if any, are to be delivered to Wachovia;

i. Deliver Securities upon receipt of payment for any repurchase agreement the Fund enters into;

j. Deliver Securities pursuant to any other proper corporate purpose, but only upon receipt of, in addition to Proper Instructions, a certified copy of a resolution of the Board of Trustees or of the Executive Committee signed by an officer of the Fund and certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, specifying the Securities to be delivered, setting forth the purpose for which the delivery is to be made, declaring the purpose to be a proper corporate purpose, and naming the person or persons to whom delivery of the Securities shall be made; and

k. Deliver Securities held for the Fund pursuant to separate security lending agreements concerning the lending of the Fund’s Securities into which the Fund may enter, from time to time.

20. Purchase and Sale of Securities.

a. Promptly after the investment adviser (or any sub-adviser) purchases Securities, the Fund shall deliver to Wachovia (as custodian) Proper Instructions specifying for each purchase: (a) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities, (b) the number of shares or the principal amount purchased and accrued interest, if any, (c) the dates of purchase and settlement, (d) the purchase price per unit, (e) the total amount payable upon the purchase, (f) the name of the person from whom or the broker through whom the purchase was made and (g) the Portfolio of the Fund for which the purchase was made. Wachovia shall upon receipt of Securities purchased by or for the Fund pay out of the monies held for the account of the Fund the total amount payable to the person from whom or the broker through whom the purchase was made,

-18-

provided that the same conforms to the total amount payable as set forth in Proper Instructions.

b. Promptly after the investment adviser (or any sub-adviser) sells Securities, the Fund shall deliver to Wachovia (as Custodian) Proper Instructions, specifying for each sale: (a) the name of the issuer and the title of the security, (b) the number of shares or principal amount sold, and accrued interest, if any, (c) the dates of sale and settlement, (d) the sale price per unit, (e) the total amount payable to the Fund upon sale, (f) the name of the broker through whom or the person to whom the sale was made and (g) the Portfolio of the Fund for which the sale was made. Wachovia shall deliver the Securities upon receipt of the total amount payable to the Fund upon sale, provided that the same conforms to the total amount payable as set forth in Proper Instructions. Subject to the foregoing, Wachovia may accept payment in any form as shall be satisfactory to it, and may deliver Securities and arrange for payment in accordance with the customs prevailing among dealers in Securities.

c. The Fund understands that when Wachovia is instructed to deliver Securities against payment, delivery of the Securities and receipt of payment therefore may not be completed simultaneously. The Fund assumes full responsibility for all credit risks involved in connection with Wachovia’s delivery of Securities pursuant to instructions of the Fund.

d. Upon the Fund’s Proper Instructions, Wachovia shall purchase or sell Securities and is authorized to use any broker or agent in connection with these transactions, but shall use affiliates of Wachovia only as the Fund directs. Wachovia shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of any broker or agent (except an affiliate of Wachovia). Upon the Fund’s Proper Instructions (which may include standing instructions), Wachovia shall also invest cash balances in certificates of deposit, savings accounts or other similar instruments Wachovia issues or in money market or other mutual funds for which Wachovia or an affiliate may serve as investment adviser, administrator, custodian, shareholder servicing agent, or other capacity notwithstanding that Wachovia or its affiliate collects fees from these mutual funds for providing the services.

e. Except as otherwise provided by law, a cash account (including subdivisions of accounts maintained in different currencies) shall constitute one single and indivisible Account. Consequently, Wachovia has the right, among others, to transfer the balance of any subaccount of a cash account to any other subaccount at any time and without prior notice.

f.(i) For puts and calls traded on securities exchanges, Nasdaq, or over-the-counter, Wachovia shall take action as to put options and call options the Fund purchases or sells (writes) regarding escrow or other arrangements in accordance with the provisions of any agreement entered into upon receipt of Proper Instructions among Wachovia, any broker-dealer that is a member of the NASD, and, if necessary, the Fund, relating to compliance with rules of the Options Clearing Corporation and of any registered national securities exchange, or of any similar organization or organizations.

(ii) Unless another agreement requires it to do so, Wachovia shall be under no obligation or duty to see that the Fund has deposited or is maintaining adequate margin, if required, with any broker in connection with any option, nor shall Wachovia be under any obligation or duty to present the option to the broker for exercise unless it receives Proper

-19-

Instructions from the Fund. Wachovia shall have no responsibility for the legality of any put or call option sold on the Fund’s behalf, the propriety of any purchase or sale, or the adequacy of any collateral delivered to a broker in connection with an option or deposited to or withdrawn from any account. Wachovia specifically, but not by way of limitation, shall not be under any obligation or duty to: (x) periodically check with or notify the Fund that the amount of collateral a broker holds is sufficient to protect the broker or the Fund against any loss; (y) effect the return of any collateral delivered to a broker; or (z) advise the Fund that any option it holds has expired or is about to expire, subject to the requirement of Paragraph 5(b) to promptly transmit notices. These obligations and duties shall be the Fund’s sole responsibility.

(iii) For puts, calls, and futures traded on commodities exchanges, Wachovia shall take action as to put options and call options the Fund purchases or sells (writes) regarding escrow or other arrangements in accordance with the provisions of any agreement entered into upon receipt of Proper Instructions among Wachovia, any futures commission merchant registered under the Commodity Exchange Act, and the Fund, relating to compliance with rules of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and/or any Contract Market, or of any similar organization or organizations, regarding account deposits for the Fund’s transactions.

(iv) Wachovia’s responsibility as to futures, puts, and calls traded on commodities exchanges, any futures commission merchant account, and any account of the Fund shall be limited as set forth in subparagraph (f)(ii) of this Paragraph 20 as if the subparagraph referred to futures commission merchants rather than brokers, and futures and puts and calls thereon instead of options.

21. Records. The books and records pertaining to the Fund that are in the possession of Wachovia shall be the property of the Fund. Wachovia shall prepare and maintain these books and records as the 1940 Act and other applicable federal securities laws and rules and regulations require. The Fund or the Fund’s authorized representatives shall have access to Wachovia’s books and records pertaining to the Fund at all times during Wachovia’s normal business hours, and Wachovia shall surrender these books and records to the Fund promptly upon request. Upon reasonable request of the Fund, Wachovia shall provide copies of any books and records to the Fund or the Fund’s authorized representative at the Fund’s expense.

22. Cooperation with Accountants. Wachovia shall cooperate with the Fund’s independent public accountants and shall take all reasonable action in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement to assure that the necessary information is made available to the accountants for the expression of their unqualified opinion, including but not limited to the opinion included in the Fund’s Form N-1A, Form N-SAR, and other reports to the SEC and for any other requirement of the SEC.

23. Reports to Fund by Independent Public Accountants. Wachovia shall provide the Fund, at such times as the Fund may reasonably require, with reports from Wachovia’s independent public accountants on the accounting system, internal accounting controls and procedures for safeguarding Securities, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, including Securities deposited and/or maintained in a Securities Depository or Book-Entry System, relating to the services Wachovia provides under this Agreement. These reports shall be of sufficient scope and

-20-

in sufficient detail as the Fund may reasonably require to provide reasonable assurance that the examination would disclose any material inadequacies and, if there are no material inadequacies, the reports shall so state.

24. Confidentiality. Wachovia agrees on behalf of itself and its employees to treat confidentially and as the proprietary information of the Fund all records and other information related to the Fund and its prior, present or potential Shareholders, and to the investment adviser and its prior, present or potential customers, and not to use these records and information for any purpose other than performance of its responsibilities and duties hereunder, except after prior notification to the Fund and the Fund’s written approval. The Fund shall not unreasonably withhold this approval, and may not withhold its approval where Wachovia may be exposed to civil or criminal contempt proceedings for failure to comply, when duly constituted authorities request Wachovia to divulge this information, or when the Fund so requests. Nothing contained herein, however, shall prohibit Wachovia from advertising or soliciting the public generally for other products or services, regardless of whether the advertisement or solicitation may include prior, present or potential shareholders of the Fund.

25. Equipment.

a. Wachovia represents and warrants that each and every commercial and noncommercial hardware, software, and firmware used with any services provided under this Agreement shall, at no additional costs to the Fund, be able to store and process accurately any and all date and date-related data (including, but not limited to processing leap year calculations and processing any other dates with unique digit arrangements such as, by way of example, 9/9/99). These representations and warranties shall be in effect so long as Wachovia provides the services under this Agreement for the Fund’s benefit.

b. Wachovia shall notify the Fund of any errors, omissions or interruptions in, or delay or unavailability of Wachovia’s ability to safeguard and hold Securities and cash in accordance with this Agreement as promptly as practicable, and proceed to correct the same as soon as is reasonably possible at no less or additional expense to the Fund.

c. In the event of equipment failures beyond Wachovia’s control, Wachovia shall, at no additional expense to the Fund, take reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions but shall not have liability with respect thereto. Wachovia shall enter into and shall maintain in effect with appropriate parties one or more agreements making reasonable provision for back-up emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to the extent appropriate equipment is available.

26. Right to Receive Advice.

a. If Wachovia shall be in doubt as to any action it may take or omit to take, it may request, and shall receive, from the Fund clarification or advice. If Wachovia shall be in doubt as to any question of law involved in any action it may take or omit to take, it may request advice at its own cost from counsel of its own choosing (who may be counsel for the Fund or Wachovia, at the option of Wachovia). If Wachovia receives conflicting advice from the Fund and from

-21-

counsel of its choosing, Wachovia shall be entitled to rely on and follow the advice of its counsel, and shall be fully protected for anything it does or omits to do in good faith in conformity with this advice.

b. Wachovia shall be protected in any action or inaction which it takes or omits to take in reliance on any directions or advice received pursuant to subparagraph (a) of this Paragraph 26 which Wachovia, after receipt of any directions or advice, in good faith believes to be consistent with these directions or advice. However, nothing in this Paragraph shall be construed as imposing upon Wachovia any obligation (i) to seek directions or advice, or (ii) to act in accordance with directions or advice when received, unless, under the terms or another provision of this Agreement, the same is a condition to Wachovia’s properly taking or omitting to take action. Nothing in this subparagraph shall excuse Wachovia when an action or omission on the part of Wachovia constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement.

27. Compensation.

As compensation for the services described in this Agreement that Wachovia shall provide during the term of this Agreement, the Fund will pay to Wachovia (a) monthly fees as outlined in Attachment A, and (b) out-of-pocket expenses, including but not limited to all costs associated with the conversion of the Fund’s Securities to Wachovia’s systems hereunder and the transfer of Securities and records kept in connection with this Agreement, reimbursement of any taxes or other charges which may be imposed upon the Fund or its income and fees, or on Wachovia in connection with any acquisition, holding, sale, transfer, delivery, or receipt of Securities or cash under this Custody Agreement (other than income or other taxes imposed upon Wachovia in connection with its provision of the custodial services contemplated hereunder); and expenses of third parties providing services to the Fund (other than services of third parties as are already compensated as described in this Agreement), including the services of legal counsel (other than as described in Paragraph 26) and independent accountants, appraisers, and brokers. These fees and charges will be payable quarterly in arrears.

28. Representations.

a. The Fund hereby represents to Wachovia that (i) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Fund, constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of the Fund enforceable in accordance with its terms, and no statute, regulation, rule, order, judgment or contract binding on the Fund prohibits the Fund’s execution or performance under this Agreement. Wachovia hereby represents to the Fund that (i) it is a U.S. bank with the full power to carry on its businesses as now conducted, and to enter into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder; and (ii) this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Wachovia, constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of Wachovia enforceable in accordance with its terms, and no statute, regulation, rule, order, judgment or contract binding on Wachovia prohibits Wachovia’s execution or performance of this Agreement; and (iii) Wachovia has established, and agrees to maintain during the term of this Agreement, the Monitoring System.

-22-

b. Wachovia hereby represents and warrants that each and every commercial and noncommercial hardware, software, firmware, mechanical, or electrical product (“Products”) used, created, assembled, manufactured, developed, or modified in connection with any goods or services offered or provided under this Agreement shall, at no additional costs to the Fund, be able to store and process accurately any and data reflected in the currency unit of the European Monetary Union, the Euro, and related to the Euro (including, but not limited to, calculating, comparing, storing, processing, recording, valuing, recognizing, validating, presenting and sequencing). The Fund may, at no additional cost, require Wachovia to demonstrate compliance and/or compliance techniques and test procedures it intends to follow or evidence of compliance by Wachovia and relevant third party vendors, consistent with the Euro related representations, warranties and obligations contained herein. These representations and warranties shall be in effect so long as the service(s) or Product(s) provided under this Agreement are used by Wachovia or provided by Wachovia for the benefit of the Fund.

29. Performance of Duties and Standard of Care.

b. Wachovia shall be under no duty to take any action on behalf of the Fund except as specifically set forth herein or as Wachovia may specifically agree to in writing.

c. Wachovia may enter into subcontracts, agreements and understandings with affiliates, whenever and on any terms and conditions as it deems necessary or appropriate to perform its services under this Agreement, consistent with the 1940 Act and other applicable law. No subcontract, agreement or understanding shall discharge Wachovia from its obligations under this Agreement. Wachovia shall remain liable for the actions of its affiliates.

d. Wachovia shall not be obligated to execute any of the Fund’s Proper Instructions if Wachovia believes that to do so will or may contravene any law or regulation, any relevant market practice, or Wachovia’s general practice in performing custody services.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of any other provision of this Agreement, Wachovia in connection with its duties under this Agreement, so long as and to the extent it is in the exercise of reasonable care, shall not be under any duty or obligation to inquire into and shall not be liable for or in respect of (i) the validity or invalidity or authority or lack thereof of any advice, direction, notice or other instrument which conforms to

30. Indemnification. The Fund, as sole owner of the Property, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Wachovia and its nominees from all taxes, charges, assessments, claims, and liabilities (including, without limitation, liabilities arising under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the 1940 Act, and any state and foreign securities and blue sky laws, all as or to be amended from time to time) and expenses, including (without limitation) attorney’s fees and disbursements, arising directly or indirectly from any action or thing which Wachovia takes or does or omits to take or do (i) at the request or on the direction of or in reliance on the advice of the Fund given in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) upon Proper Instructions; provided, however, that neither Wachovia nor any of its nominees or subcustodian shall be indemnified against any liability to the Fund or to its Shareholders (or any expenses incident to this liability) arising out of (x) Wachovia’s or its nominee’s or subcustodian’s own willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement or any agreement between Wachovia and any nominee or subcustodian or (y) Wachovia’s own negligent failure to perform its duties under this Agreement. Wachovia similarly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Fund from all liabilities and expenses arising directly or indirectly from Wachovia’s or its nominee’s or sub-custodian’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard in performing its duties under this agreement. If Wachovia advances any cash for any purpose resulting from Proper Instructions, or if Wachovia or its nominee or subcustodian shall incur or be assessed any taxes, charges, expenses, assessments, claims or liabilities in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except as may arise from its or its nominee’s or subcustodian’s own negligent action, negligent failure to act, willful misconduct, or reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement or any agreement between Wachovia and any nominee or subcustodian, the Fund shall promptly reimburse Wachovia for the advance of cash or taxes, charges, expenses, assessments, claims or liabilities.

Upon termination of the Agreement, the Fund shall pay to Wachovia all compensation as may be due as of the date of termination and shall likewise reimburse Wachovia for its costs, expenses and disbursements.

32. Successor Custodian.

Thereafter, that bank or trust company shall be the successor of Wachovia under this Agreement. If Property of the Fund remains in the possession of Wachovia after the date of termination of this Agreement owing to the Fund’s failure to procure the certified copy of the vote referred to or of the Board to appoint a successor custodian, Wachovia shall be entitled to fair compensation for its services during the period Wachovia retains possession of the Property and the provisions of this Agreement relating to the duties and obligations of Wachovia shall remain in full force and effect.

Provision of Additional Information

For purposes of Paragraph 8 of the Agreement, the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) shall be deemed to have considered the Country Risk as is incurred by placing and maintaining Foreign Assets in each country for which Wachovia is serving as Foreign Custody Manager of the Fund. To aid the Fund (and its investment adviser(s)) in monitoring Country Risk, however, Wachovia shall provide the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) the following information with respect to the foreign countries of Eligible Foreign Custodians that Wachovia selects pursuant to Paragraph 8.b of the Agreement: (a) opinions of local counsel or reports concerning whether applicable foreign law would restrict the access afforded to the Fund’s independent public accountants to books and records kept by an Eligible Foreign Custodian located in that country; whether applicable foreign law would restrict the Fund’s ability to recover its Foreign Assets and cash in the event of the bankruptcy of an Eligible Foreign Custodian located in that country; whether applicable foreign law would restrict the Fund’s ability to recover Foreign Assets that are lost while under the control of an Eligible Foreign Custodian located in the country; and (b) periodic market reports with respect to securities settlement and registration, taxation, and depositories (including depository evaluation), if any.

Wachovia will also periodically provide the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) the following information relating to Country Risk with respect to the foreign countries of Eligible Foreign Custodians that Wachovia selects pursuant to Paragraph 8.b of the Agreement, or eligible securities depositories pursuant to Paragraph 9, as Wachovia receives this information: (y) written information concerning each foreign country’s practices with regard to expropriation, nationalization, freezes, or confiscation of financial assets; or whether difficulties in converting the Fund’s cash and cash equivalents to U.S. dollars are reasonably foreseeable; (z) market reports with respect to each foreign country’s securities regulatory environment, foreign ownership restrictions, or foreign exchange practices. The Fund hereby acknowledges that: (i) this information is solely designed to inform the Fund (or its investment adviser(s)) of market conditions and procedures and is not intended to be considered comprehensive or as a recommendation to invest or not invest in particular markets; and (ii) Wachovia is not the primary source of the information and has gathered the information from sources it considers reliable, but that Wachovia shall have no responsibility for inaccuracies or incomplete information.

To aid the Fund or its delegate in its consideration of Country Risks, Wachovia shall furnish the Fund annually and prior to the initial placing of Foreign Assets into a country, the following information:

(i) securities settlement and registration, (ii) taxation, and (iii) compulsory depositories.

Wachovia shall furnish additional information customarily provided to other investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 for which Wachovia provides foreign custody services.
