SECOND AMENDMENT TO CUSTODY AGREEMENT

 

This Amendment to the Custody Agreement (defined below) is made as of December 22, 2016 by and between each investment company identified on Schedule 1 hereto, as such Schedule may be amended from time to time (each such investment company and each investment company made subject to the Custody Agreement in accordance with Section 10.12 thereof, the "Fund"), and The Bank of New York Mellon (the "Custodian").  Capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Custody Agreement.

 

WHEREAS, the Fund and the Custodian entered into a Custody Agreement dated as of January 1, 2011 and amended as of October 1, 2013 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the "Custody Agreement");

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, the parties hereby agree to amend the Custody Agreement, pursuant to the terms thereof, as follows:

 

  I.                  Section 5.2 of the Custody Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

 

5.2       Sweep and Float.  Cash, including cash on deposit with a Foreign Custodian, may be swept as directed by the Fund or its investment manager to investment vehicles offered by the Custodian or to other investment vehicles.  Cash may be uninvested when it is received or reconciled to an Account after the deadline to be swept into a target vehicle, or when held for short periods of time related to transaction settlements.  The Fund acknowledges that the Custodian’s compensation includes (i) the interest earned by the Custodian on cash balances in Accounts, less (x) the Earnings Credits received and applied by the Fund pursuant to Section 8.6, in the case of U.S. dollar balances or (y) interest paid the Fund in the case of foreign currency balances and (ii) interest earned by the Custodian on other cash balances held by the Custodian, including disbursement balances and balances arising from purchase and sale transactions, as disclosed in the Custodian’s float policy. The Fund also acknowledges that the Custodian’s compensation may include negative interest charged the Fund, as set forth in the Custodian’s negative interest rate disclosure, on balances held on deposit with the Custodian in certain currencies for which the local short term interest rate has become negative.”

 

II.         Continuing Agreement.  Except as expressly amended by this Amendment, the provisions of the Custody Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

III.       New York Law to Apply.  This Amendment shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the substantive laws of the state of New York without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.

 

IV.       Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts taken together shall constitute one and the same Amendment.
