WHEREAS, Section 12(d)(1)(A) of the 1940 Act, in relevant part, limits the extent to which an investment company, and any company or companies controlled by such company, may invest in shares of registered investment companies, Section 12(d)(1)(B) limits the extent to which a registered open-end investment company, its principal underwriter or any registered brokers or dealers may knowingly sell shares of such registered open-end investment company to other investment companies, or any company or companies controlled by such companies, and Section 12(d)(1)(C) limits the extent to which an investment company, and any company or companies controlled by such company, may invest in the shares of a registered closed-end investment company;

WHEREAS, Rule 12d1-4 under the 1940 Act, as amended from time to time, (the “Rule”) permits registered investment companies, such as the Acquiring Funds, to invest in shares of other registered investment companies, such as the Acquired Funds, in excess of the limits of Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act subject to compliance with the conditions of the Rule;

WHEREAS, an Acquiring Fund may, from time to time, invest in shares of one or more Acquired Funds in excess of the limitations of Section 12(d)(1)(A) in reliance on the Rule; and

WHEREAS, in accordance with the Rule, the parties desire to set forth the following terms pursuant to which the Acquiring Funds may invest in the relevant Acquired Funds in reliance on the Rule.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the potential benefits to the Acquiring Funds and the Acquired Funds arising out of an Acquiring Fund’s investment in an Acquired Fund, the parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows.

1. Terms of Investment

(a) Each Acquiring Fund and each Acquired Fund agree as follows:

1

(i) Scale of investment. Upon request by an Acquired Fund, the Acquiring Fund will use reasonable efforts to provide summary information regarding the anticipated timeline and scale of its contemplated investments in the Acquired Fund and any maximum investment limits, whenever practicable and consistent with the Acquiring Fund’s best interests.

(ii) Timing/advance notice of redemptions. Each Acquiring Fund will use reasonable efforts to spread large redemption requests (greater than 2% of the relevant Acquired Fund’s total outstanding shares) over multiple days or to provide advance notification of large redemption requests to the relevant Acquired Fund(s) whenever practicable and consistent with the Acquiring Fund’s best interests. Each Acquired Fund acknowledges and agrees that any notification provided pursuant to the foregoing is not a commitment to redeem and constitutes an estimate that may differ materially from the amount, timing and manner in which a redemption request is submitted, if any. For the avoidance of doubt, in the instance where the Acquired Fund is an exchange-traded fund, the requirements of this paragraph (ii) shall not apply to transactions in which an Acquiring Fund does not redeem Acquired Fund shares even if such transaction results in the redemption of Acquired Fund shares (such as where an Acquiring Fund sells shares in the secondary market).

(iii) In-kind redemptions. Each Acquiring Fund acknowledges and agrees that, if and to the extent consistent with the Acquired Fund’s registration statement, as amended from time to time, the Acquired Fund may honor any redemption request partially or wholly in-kind.

(b) An Acquired Fund shall provide an Acquiring Fund with information on the fees and expenses of the Acquired Fund reasonably requested by the Acquiring Fund.

2. Representations of the Acquired Funds.

(a) In connection with any investment by an Acquiring Fund in an Acquired Fund in excess of the limitations in Section 12(d)(1)(A) in reliance on the Rule, the Acquired Fund agrees to: (i) comply with all conditions of the Rule applicable to Acquired Funds; and (ii) comply with its obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) promptly notify the Acquiring Fund if such Acquired Fund fails to comply with the Rule, with respect to an investment by the Acquiring Fund, or this Agreement.

3. Representations of the Acquiring Funds.

(a) In connection with any investment by an Acquiring Fund in an Acquired Fund in excess of the limitations in Section 12(d)(1)(A) in reliance on the Rule, the Acquiring Fund agrees to: (i) comply with all conditions of the Rule applicable to Acquiring Funds; (ii) comply with its obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) promptly notify the Acquired Fund if such Acquiring Fund fails to comply with the Rule, with respect to its investment in such Acquired Fund, or this Agreement.

2

(b) An Acquiring Fund shall promptly notify an Acquired Fund:

(i) of any purchase or acquisition of shares in an Acquired Fund that causes such Acquiring Fund to hold 3% or more of such Acquired Fund’s total outstanding voting securities; and

(ii) if at any time an Acquiring Fund no longer holds voting securities of an Acquired Fund in excess of the amount noted in (i) above.

(c) An Acquiring Fund shall provide an Acquired Fund with information regarding the amount of such Acquiring Fund’s investments in the Acquired Fund, and information regarding affiliated persons of the Acquiring Fund, upon the Acquired Fund’s reasonable request.

(d) The Acquiring Fund and its Advisory Group, as such term is defined in the Rule, will not control (individually or in the aggregate) an Acquired Fund within the meaning of Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act.

(e) If, as a result of a decrease in the outstanding voting securities of an Acquired Fund, an Acquiring Fund and its Advisory Group, in the aggregate, hold more than 25% of the outstanding voting securities of an Acquired Fund, each of those holders will vote its shares of the Acquired Fund in the same proportion as the vote of all other holders of the Acquired Fund’s shares; provided, however, that in circumstances where all holders of the outstanding voting securities of the Acquired Fund are required by this provision or otherwise under the Rule or Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act to vote securities of the Acquired Fund in the same proportion as the vote of all other holders of such securities, the Acquiring Fund will seek instructions from its security holders with regard to the voting of all proxies with respect to such Acquired Fund securities and vote such proxies only in accordance with such instructions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither this paragraph nor the preceding paragraph shall apply if the Acquiring Fund is in the same group of investment companies (as defined in the Rule) as an Acquired Fund, or the Acquiring Fund’s investment sub-adviser or any person controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Acquiring Fund’s investment sub-adviser acts as the Acquired Fund’s investment adviser or depositor.

(f) No Acquiring Fund or an affiliated person of an Acquiring Fund will cause any existing or potential investment by the Acquiring Fund in an Acquired Fund to influence the terms of any services or transactions among: (i) the Acquiring Fund or an affiliated person of an Acquiring Fund; and (ii) the Acquired Fund or an affiliated person of the Acquired Fund.

(g) Each Acquiring Fund acknowledges and understands that an Acquired Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase of shares by an Acquiring Fund or any primary market purchase of shares by an Acquiring Fund through an Authorized Participant.

4. Indemnification.

(a) The Acquiring Funds, severally and not jointly, agree to hold harmless, indemnify and defend the Acquired Funds and the Acquired Trusts, including any of their principals, trustees, officers, employees and agents (“Acquired Fund Agents”), against and from any and all losses,

3

costs, expenses or liabilities incurred by or claims or actions (“Claims”) asserted against the Acquired Fund and/or the Acquired Trusts, including any Acquired Fund Agents, to the extent such Claims result from: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in an Acquiring Fund’s prospectus, statement of additional information or sales literature or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) a material breach by such Acquiring Fund of any provision of this Agreement; or (iii) a violation by such Acquiring Fund of the terms and conditions of the Rule. The indemnification provided for in this paragraph shall include any reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating and/or defending such Claims.

(b) The Acquired Funds, severally and not jointly, agree to hold harmless, indemnify and defend the Acquiring Funds and the Acquiring Trusts, including any of their principals, trustees, officers, employees and agents (“Acquiring Fund Agents”), against and from any and all losses, costs, expenses or liabilities incurred by or Claims asserted against the Acquiring Fund and/or the Acquiring Trusts, including any Acquiring Fund Agents, to the extent such Claims result from: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in an Acquired Fund’s prospectus, statement of additional information or sales literature or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) a material breach by such Acquired Fund of any provision of this Agreement; or (iii) a violation by such Acquired Fund of the terms and conditions of the Rule. The indemnification provided for in this paragraph shall include any reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating and/or defending such Claims.

(c) To the greatest extent permitted by applicable law, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in no event will either party be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential damages or any similar damages or losses resulting from any action or failure to act under this Agreement, and each party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right that it may have to claim and recover any such damages, even if it has informed the other party of the possibility or likelihood of such damages.
