***

Each of the above stated fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements (each a “Fee Waiver”, collectively the “Fee Waivers”) set forth in Sections (A) and (B): (i) supersedes any prior Fee Waiver for the applicable Fund, (ii) is subject to the terms and conditions of the Investment Advisory Agreement, (iii) does not provide for the recoupment by SSGA FM of any amounts waived or reimbursed, and (iv) may only be terminated during the relevant period with the approval of the Funds’ Board of Trustees.

SSGA FM and the Funds’ Officers are authorized to take such actions as they deem necessary and appropriate to continue each of the above stated Fee Waivers for additional periods, including of one or more years, after the Expiration Date of each Fee Waiver.
