To Our Dealer Friends,

As you may know, American Funds recently announced plans to introduce American Funds College Target Date Series (the “Series”) to the American Funds family.  The Series is comprised of seven funds of funds designed for investors saving for college.  The Series will be offered through the CollegeAmerica Program and be available for sale to the public beginning September 14, 2012.  The purpose of this notice is to amend your Selling Group Agreement (the “Agreement”) with American Funds Distributors, Inc. to reflect the addition of the Series.

As compared to other American Funds, the Series will have a new concession schedule for Class 529-A shares that provides a maximum dealer concession of 3.50% on investments for all funds in the Series except American Funds College Enrollment Fund.  The College Enrollment Fund will have a maximum dealer concession of 2.00% on investments. As a result of the new Class 529-A concession schedule, we are creating a new category of compensation for purposes of the Agreement.  These changes are detailed in the Agreement amendment below.

In consideration of the foregoing, the Agreement is amended as follows effective September 14, 2012:

1.
The existing Schedule A to the Agreement is replaced in its entirety by the new Schedule A attached hereto.
2.
A concession schedule for the new Category 5 Funds is added to the Agreement as follows:

On sales of Class 529-A shares of Funds listed in Category 5 on the attached Schedule A that are accepted by us and for which you are responsible, you will be paid dealer concessions as follows:

*           *           *           *           *

The Agreement remains unchanged in all other respects.  You need not sign this amendment; any order for fund shares received by us beginning September 14, 2012 shall be deemed an acceptance of this amendment to your Agreement.  Of course, even if your Agreement is automatically amended to reflect these new terms, you are not obligated to sell the new funds.  If you have any questions related to the amendment, please contact us at (800) 421-3118.

August 2012
 
Ladies and Gentlemen,
 
As you may know, American Funds recently announced plans to introduce American Funds College Target Date Series (the “Series”) to the American Funds family.  The Series is comprised of seven funds of funds designed for investors saving for college.  The Series will be offered through the CollegeAmerica Program and be available for sale to the public beginning September 14, 2012.  The purpose of this notice is to amend your Bank/Trust Company Selling Group Agreement (the “Agreement”) with American Funds Distributors, Inc. to reflect the addition of the Series.

As compared to other American Funds, the Series will have a new concession schedule for Class 529-A shares that provides a maximum dealer concession of 3.50% on investments for all funds in the Series except American Funds College Enrollment Fund.  The College Enrollment Fund will have a maximum dealer concession of 2.00% on investments. As a result of the new Class 529-A concession schedule, we are creating a new category of compensation for purposes of the Agreement.  These changes are detailed in the Agreement amendment below.

In consideration of the foregoing, the Agreement is amended as follows effective September 14, 2012:

1.
The existing Schedule A to the Agreement is replaced in its entirety by the new Schedule A attached hereto.
2.
A concession schedule for the new Category 5 Funds is added to the Agreement as follows:

On sales of Class 529-A shares of Funds listed in Category 5 on the attached Schedule A that are accepted by us and for which you are responsible, you will be paid dealer concessions as follows:

Purchases

Offering Price
Sales Charge

Less than $100,000
3.50%
4.25%

1.60%

$750,000 but less than $1 million
1.20%
1.50%
$1 million or more
See Agreement
None

*           *           *           *           *
The Agreement remains unchanged in all other respects.  You need not sign this amendment; any order for fund shares received by us beginning September 14, 2012 shall be deemed an acceptance of this amendment to your Agreement.  Of course, even if your Agreement is automatically amended to reflect these new terms, you are not obligated to sell the new funds.  If you have any questions related to the amendment, please contact us at (800) 421-3118.

Cordially,
