[FUND NAME]

AMENDED AND RESTATED SHAREHOLDER SERVICES AGREEMENT

1.           The parties to this Amended and Restated Agreement (the “Agreement”), which is effective as of January 1, 2012, are [Fund Name], a Delaware statutory trust (the “Fund”), and American Funds Service Company, a California corporation (“AFS”).  AFS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Capital Research and Management Company (“CRMC”). This Agreement will continue in effect until amended or terminated in accordance with its terms.

2.           The Fund hereby employs AFS, and AFS hereby accepts such employment by the Fund, as its transfer agent.  In such capacity AFS will provide the services of stock transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent, redemption agent, and such additional related services as the Fund may from time to time require, in respect of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class F-1 and Class F-2 (“Class F shares), (Class A, Class B, Class C and Class F shares collectively the “shares”) of the Fund, all of which services are sometimes referred to herein as “shareholder services.”  In addition, AFS assumes responsibility for the Fund’s implementation and compliance with the procedures set forth in the Anti-Money Laundering Program (“AML Program”) of the Fund and does hereby agree to provide all records relating to the AML Program to any federal examiner of the Fund upon request.

3.           AFS has entered into substantially identical agreements with other investment companies for which CRMC serves as investment adviser.  (For the purposes of this Agreement, such investment companies, including the Fund, are called “participating investment companies.”)

4.           AFS has entered into an agreement with DST Systems, Inc. (hereinafter called “DST”), to provide AFS with electronic data processing services sufficient for the performance of the shareholder services referred to in paragraph 2.

5.           The Fund, together with the other participating investment companies, will maintain a Review and Advisory Committee, which Committee will review and may make recommendations to the boards of the participating investment companies regarding all fees and charges provided for in this Agreement, as well as review the level and quality of the shareholder services rendered to the participating investment companies and their shareholders.  Each participating investment company may select one director or trustee who is not affiliated with CRMC, or any of its affiliated companies, or with Washington Management Corporation or any of its affiliated companies, to serve on the Review and Advisory Committee.

6.           AFS will provide to the participating investment companies the shareholder services referred to herein in return for the following fees:

Annual account maintenance fee (paid monthly):

Fee per account (annual rate)                                                                                        Rate

Broker controlled account (networked and street) $0.84

Full service account $16.00

No annual fee will be charged for a participant account underlying a 401(k) or other defined contribution plan where the plan maintains a single account on AFS’ books and responds to all participant inquiries.

The fees described above shall be invoiced and paid within 30 days after the end of the month in which the services were performed.

Any revision of the schedule of charges set forth herein shall require the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the board of trustees of the Fund.

7.           a.  All fund-specific charges from third parties -- including DST charges, payments described in the next sentence, postage, NSCC transaction charges and similar out-of-pocket expenses -- will be passed through directly to the Fund or other participating investment companies, as applicable.  AFS, subject to approval of its board of directors, is authorized in its discretion to negotiate payments to third parties for account maintenance and/or transaction processing services described in paragraph 7.b., provided such payments do not exceed the anticipated savings to the Fund, either in fees payable to AFS hereunder or in other direct Fund expenses, that AFS reasonably anticipates would be realized by the Fund from using the services of such third party rather than maintaining the accounts directly on AFS’ books and/or processing non-automated transactions. The limitation set forth above shall not apply to Class C shares or Class F shares.

b.  During the term of this Agreement, AFS shall perform or cause to be performed the transfer agent services set forth in Exhibit A hereto, as such exhibit may be amended from time to time by mutual consent of the parties.  The Fund and AFS acknowledge that AFS will contract with third parties, to perform such transfer agent services.  In selecting third parties to perform transfer agent services, AFS shall select only those third parties that AFS reasonably believes have adequate facilities and personnel to diligently perform such services.  As set forth in the Administrative Services Agreement between the Fund and CRMC, CRMC or its affiliates shall monitor, coordinate and oversee the activities performed by the third parties with which AFS contracts to ensure Fund shareholders receive high-quality service.

8.           It is understood that AFS may have income in excess of its expenses and may accumulate capital and surplus.  AFS is not, however, permitted to distribute any net income or accumulated surplus to its parent, CRMC, in the form of a dividend without the affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the boards of the Fund and all participating investment companies.

9.           This Agreement may be amended at any time by mutual agreement of the parties, with agreement of the Fund to be evidenced by affirmative vote of a majority of the members of the board of the Fund.

10.           This Agreement may be terminated on 180 days’ written notice by either party.  In the event of a termination of this Agreement, AFS and the Fund will each extend full cooperation in effecting a conversion to whatever successor shareholder service provider(s) the Fund may select, it being understood that all records relating to the Fund and its shareholders are property of the Fund.

11.           In the event of a termination of this Agreement by the Fund, the Fund will pay to AFS as a termination fee the Fund’s proportionate share of any costs of conversion of the Fund’s shareholder service from AFS to a successor.  In the event of termination of this Agreement and all corresponding agreements with all the participating investment companies, all assets of AFS will be sold or otherwise converted to cash, with a view to the liquidation of AFS when it ceases to provide shareholder services for the participating investment companies.  To the extent any such assets are sold by AFS to CRMC and/or any of its affiliates, such sales shall be at fair market value at the time of sale as agreed upon by AFS, the purchasing company or companies, and the Review and Advisory Committee.  After all assets of AFS have been converted to cash and all liabilities of AFS have been paid or discharged, an amount equal to any capital or paid-in surplus of AFS that shall have been contributed by CRMC or its affiliates shall be set aside in cash for distribution to CRMC upon liquidation of AFS.  Any other capital or surplus and any assets of AFS remaining after the foregoing provisions for liabilities and return of capital or paid-in surplus to CRMC shall be distributed to the participating investment companies in such proportions as may be determined by the Review and Advisory Committee.

12.           In the event of disagreement between the Fund and AFS, or between the Fund and other participating investment companies as to any matter arising under this Agreement, which the parties to the disagreement are unable to resolve, the question shall be referred to the Review and Advisory Committee for resolution.  If the Review and Advisory Committee is unable to resolve the question to the satisfaction of both parties, either party may elect to submit the question to arbitration; one arbitrator to be named by each party to the disagreement and a third arbitrator to be selected by the two arbitrators named by the original parties.  The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on all parties to the arbitration.  The expenses of such arbitration shall be paid by the party electing to submit the question to arbitration.

13.           The obligations of the Fund under this Agreement are not binding upon any of the trustees, officers, employees, agents or shareholders of the Fund individually, but bind only the Fund itself.  AFS agrees to look solely to the assets of the Fund for the satisfaction of any liability of the Fund in respect to this Agreement and will not seek recourse against such trustees officers, employees, agents or shareholders, or any of them or their personal assets for such satisfaction.

WHEREAS, the Fund wishes to have the Investment Adviser assist financial advisers and other intermediaries with their provision of service to shareholders of the Fund and to arrange for and coordinate, monitor and oversee the activities performed by the third parties with which affiliates of the Investment Adviser contract for the provision of sub-transfer agency services (the “administrative services”);

WHEREAS, the Investment Adviser is willing to perform or to cause to be performed such administrative services for the Fund’s shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, the Fund and the Investment Adviser wish to enter into an Amended and Restated Administrative Services Agreement (“Agreement”) whereby the Investment Adviser would perform or cause to be performed such administrative services for the Fund’s shares;

5.Assignment.  This Agreement shall not be assignable by either party hereto and in the event of assignment shall automatically terminate forthwith.  The term “assignment” shall have the meaning set forth in the 1940 Act.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investment Adviser is specifically authorized to contract with its affiliates for the provision of administrative services on behalf of the Fund.

6.Issuance of Series of Shares.  If the Fund shall at any time issue shares in more than one series, this Agreement may be adopted, amended, continued or renewed with respect to a series as provided herein, notwithstanding that such adoption, amendment, continuance or renewal has not been effected with respect to any one or more other series of the Fund.
