(b) The Fund’s lack of good faith or willful misconduct;

12

(c) The reasonable reliance upon, and any reasonable subsequent use of or reasonable action taken or omitted, by the Transfer Agent, or the Transfer Agent Indemnitees on: (i) any information, records, documents, data, or services, which are received by the Transfer Agent or the Transfer Agent Indemnitees by machine readable input, facsimile, data entry, electronic instructions, or other similar means authorized by the Fund, and which have been prepared, maintained or performed by the Fund or any other person or firm on behalf of the Fund including but not limited to any broker-dealer, TPA or previous transfer agent; (ii) any instructions or requests of the Fund or any of its officers; or (iii) any paper or document, reasonably believed to be genuine, authentic, or signed by the proper person or persons;

(d) The offer or sale of Shares in violation of federal or state securities laws or regulations requiring that such Shares be registered, or in violation of any stop order or other determination or ruling by any federal or any state agency with respect to the offer or sale of such Shares;

(e) The acceptance of facsimile transaction requests on behalf of individual Shareholders received from broker-dealers, TPAs or the Fund, and the reliance by the Transfer Agent or Transfer Agent Indemnitees on the broker-dealer, TPA or the Fund ensuring that the original source documentation is in good order and properly retained;

(f) The negotiation and processing of any checks, wires and ACH transmissions including without limitation for deposit into, or credit to, the Fund’s demand deposit accounts maintained by the Transfer Agent; or

7.2 The Fund shall not be responsible for, and the Transfer Agent shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Fund, and its directors, officers, employees, agents, subcontractors, affiliates and subsidiaries (the “Fund Indemnitees”), from and against all Adverse Consequences that may at any time be asserted against or incurred by any of them in connection with claims by third parties directly arising out of or in connection with the Transfer Agent’s failure to perform the Services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in good faith and without willful misconduct.

7.3 In order that the indemnification provisions contained in this Section 7 shall apply, upon the assertion of a claim for which one party may be required to indemnify the other party, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party of such assertion, and shall keep the indemnifying party advised with respect to all developments concerning such claim. The indemnifying party shall have the option to participate with the indemnified party in the defense of such claim or to defend against said claim in its own name or in the name of the indemnified party.

7.4       As-of Adjustments.

(a)       The Transfer Agent and the Fund will discuss liability for an "as of" transaction loss on a case-by-case basis. Subject to the limitation set forth in Section 8, the Transfer Agent will accept responsibility for a particular situation resulting in an ‘as of’ loss to the Fund where such loss is “material,” as hereinafter defined, and, under the particular facts at issue, the Transfer Agent's conduct breached the Standard of Care and the Transfer Agent's conduct is the sole cause of the loss. A loss is “material” for purposes of this Section 7.4 when it results in a pricing error on a particular transaction which equals or exceeds one full cent ($.01) per share times the number of shares outstanding.

(b)       If the net effect of the “as of” transactions that are determined to be caused solely by the Transfer Agent in breach of the Standard of Care is negative and exceeds the above limit, then the Transfer Agent shall promptly contact the Fund accountants. The Transfer Agent will work with the Fund accountants to determine what, if any, impact the threshold break has on the Fund’s Net Asset Value and what, if any, further action is required. These further actions may include but are not limited to, the Fund re-pricing the affected day(s), the Transfer Agent re-processing, at its expense, all affected transactions in the Fund that took place during the period or a payment to the Fund. The Fund agrees to work in good faith with the Transfer Agent and wherever possible, absent a regulatory prohibition or other mutually agreed upon reason, the Fund agrees to re-price the affected day(s) and to allow the Transfer Agent to re-process the affected transactions. When such re-pricing and re-processing is not possible, and when the Transfer Agent must contribute to the settlement of a loss, the Transfer Agent's responsibility will commence with that portion of the loss over $0.01 per share calculated on the basis of the total value of all Shares of the affected Portfolio (i.e., on the basis of the value of the Shares of the total Portfolio, including all classes of that Portfolio, not just those of the affected class).

8.       Standard of Care

In performing the Services under this Agreement, the Transfer Agent agrees that at all times it shall act in good faith, without negligence, willful misconduct or fraud (the “Standard of Care”). The Transfer Agent’s aggregate liability during the Term of this Agreement with respect to, arising from or arising in connection with all claims under this Agreement for the Services provided by the Transfer Agent under this Agreement for all of the Funds subject to this Agreement, whether in contract, or in tort, or otherwise, is limited to, and shall not exceed the aggregate of the amounts actually received hereunder by the Transfer Agent as fees and charges, but not including reimbursable expenses, for all of the Funds covered by this Agreement during the twenty-four (24) calendar months immediately preceding the first event for which recovery from the Transfer Agent is being sought. The foregoing limitation on liability shall not apply to any loss or damage resulting from any intentional malicious acts or intentional malicious omissions by the Transfer Agent’s employees. For purposes of this Section 8, “intentional malicious acts or intentional malicious omissions” shall mean those acts undertaken or omitted purposefully under the circumstances in which the person knows that such acts or omissions violate this Agreement and are likely to cause damage or harm to the Fund.

14

9.       Confidentiality

9.1 The Transfer Agent and the Fund agree that they will not, at any time during the term of this Agreement or after its termination, reveal, divulge, or make known to any person, firm, corporation or other business organization, any Confidential Information (as defined below) of the other party used or gained by the Transfer Agent or the Fund during performance under this Agreement. The Fund and the Transfer Agent further covenant and agree to retain all such Confidential Information in trust for the sole benefit of the Transfer Agent or the Fund and their successors and assigns. In the event of breach of the foregoing by either party, the parties agree that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available in law, equity, or otherwise for the disclosure of the Confidential Information in breach of this Agreement, the party whose Confidential Information is disclosed shall be entitled to seek and obtain a temporary restraining order, injunctive relief, or other equitable relief against the continuance of such breach. The above prohibition of disclosure shall not apply to the extent that the Transfer Agent must disclose such Confidential Information to its sub-contractor or Fund agent for purposes of providing services under this Agreement. Transfer Agent will inform the Fund of any sub-contractors to which it will be providing Confidential Information.

9.2 For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall mean: (a) with respect to Confidential Information of the Fund: (i) shareholder lists, cost figures and projections, profit figures and projections, all non-public information, including but not limited to trade secrets, proprietary information, and information about products, business methods and business plans) relating to the business of the Fund, or any other secret or confidential information whatsoever of the Fund; and (ii) all information that the Fund is obligated by law to treat as confidential for the benefit of third parties, including but not limited to Customer Information (defined below); and (b) with respect to the Transfer Agent’s Confidential Information: all non-public information, including but not limited to trade secrets, proprietary information, and information about products, business methods and business plans, customer names and other information related to customers, fee schedules, price lists, pricing policies, financial information, discoveries, ideas, concepts, software in various stages of development, designs, drawings, specifications, techniques, models, data, source code, object code, documentation, diagrams, flow charts, research, development, processes, procedures, “know-how,” organizational structure, user guides, marketing techniques and materials, marketing and development plans, and data processing software and systems relating to the Transfer Agent’s business, operations or systems (or to the business, systems or operations of the Transfer Agent’s affiliates or third parties).

9.3 The obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure of each of the Transfer Agent and the Fund set forth in this Section 9 shall not apply to information which (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of an unauthorized disclosure by the receiving party or its employees, representatives or agents; or (ii) becomes available to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a third party which is entitled to disclose it; or (iii) was known to the receiving party on a non-confidential basis prior to its disclosure to the receiving party by the other party; or (iv) was independently developed by the receiving party.

15

9.4 For purposes of this Agreement, “Customer Information” means all the customer identifying data however collected or received, including without limitation, through “cookies” or non-electronic means pertaining to or identifiable to the Fund’s Shareholders, prospective shareholders and plan administrators (collectively, “Fund Customers”), including without limitation, (i) name, address, email address, passwords, account numbers, personal financial information, personal preferences, demographic data, marketing data, data about securities transactions, credit data or any other identification data; (ii) any information that reflects the use of or interactions with a Fund service, including the Fund’s web site; or (iii) any data otherwise submitted in the process of registering for a Fund service. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer Information shall include all “nonpublic personal information,” as defined under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (Public Law 106-102, 113 Stat. 1138) (“GLB Act”) and all “personal information” as defined in the Massachusetts Standards for the Protection of Personal Information, 201 CMR 17.00, et seq., (“Mass Privacy Act”). This Agreement shall not be construed as granting the Transfer Agent any ownership rights in the Customer Information.

9.5 The Transfer Agent will use the Confidential Information, including Customer Information, only in compliance with (i) the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) its own Privacy and Information Sharing Policy, as amended and updated from time to time and (iii) all applicable federal and state privacy laws, including the GLB Act and the Mass Privacy Act, as such is applicable to its transfer agency business. As set forth in Section 10.6, the Transfer Agent agrees that it will promptly notify the Fund of any unauthorized disclosure or unauthorized access by any third party to Customer Information of which it becomes aware.

9.6 In the event that any requests or demands are received by the Transfer Agent (including from a regulatory agency) for the inspection of the records of the Fund, the Transfer Agent will promptly notify the Fund in advance of responding to such request (except where prohibited by law or judicial or administrative order) and to secure instructions from an authorized officer of the Fund as to such inspection. The Transfer Agent expressly reserves the right, however, to exhibit the Fund’s records to any person or regulatory agency whenever it is advised by counsel that it may be held liable for the failure to exhibit the records to such person or agency.

10.       Covenants of the Fund and the Transfer Agent

10.1 The Fund shall promptly furnish to the Transfer Agent the following:

(a)       A certified copy of the resolution of the Board of Trustees or the Board of Directors, as the case may be, of the Fund authorizing the appointment of the Transfer Agent and the execution and delivery of this Agreement; and

(b)       A copy of the organizational documents of the Fund and all amendments thereto.

10.2 The Transfer Agent hereby agrees to establish and maintain facilities and procedures reasonably acceptable to the Fund for safekeeping of stock certificates, check forms and facsimile signature imprinting devices, if any; and for the preparation or use, and for keeping account of, such certificates, forms and devices.

16

10.3 Records. The Transfer Agent shall keep records, including electronic records, where applicable, relating to the services to be performed hereunder, in the form, manner and for such periods, as it may deem advisable and as may be required by (i) the laws and regulations applicable to its business as a Transfer Agent, including, but not limited to, those set forth in 17 CFR 240.17Ad-6 and 17 CFR 240.17Ad-7, and those set forth in IRS regulations with respect to any services as information reporting and withholding agent for the Funds, in each case as such regulations may be amended from time to time, (ii) its record retention policies, and (iii) the written procedures mutually agreed upon by the Parties as of the date of this Agreement and as subsequently updated by the Parties. The Transfer Agent shall also maintain customary records in connection with its agency for the Fund; particularly those records required to be maintained pursuant to subparagraph (2)(iv) of paragraph (b) of Rule 31a-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Records maintained by the Transfer Agent on behalf of the Funds shall be made available for reasonable examinations by the SEC upon reasonable request and shall be maintained by the Transfer Agent for such period as required by applicable law and mutually agreed upon written procedures or until such earlier time as the Transfer Agent has delivered such records into the Fund’s possession or destroyed them at the Fund’s request in accordance with the mutually agreed upon written procedures.

10.4 Compliance Program. The Transfer Agent maintains and will continue to maintain a comprehensive compliance program reasonably designed to prevent violations of the federal securities laws pursuant to Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to its compliance program, the Transfer Agent will provide periodic measurement reports to the Fund. Upon request of the Fund, the Transfer Agent will provide to the Fund in connection with any periodic annual or semi-annual shareholder report filed by the Fund or, in the absence of the filing of such reports, on a quarterly basis, a sub-certification pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 with respect to the Transfer Agent’s performance of the services set forth in this Agreement and its internal controls related thereto. In addition, on a quarterly basis, the Transfer Agent will provide to the Fund a certification in connection with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Transfer Agent reserves the right to amend and update its compliance program and the measurement tools and certifications provided thereunder from time to time in order to address changing regulatory and industry developments.

10.5 SOC 1 Reports. The Transfer Agent will furnish to the Fund, on a semi-annual basis, a SOC 1, Type 2 Audit issued in accordance with Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) SSAE 18, AT-C section 320,  as well as such other reports and information relating to the Transfer Agent’s policies and procedures, as the parties may mutually agree upon.

10.6 Information Security. The Transfer Agent has implemented and maintains at each service location physical and information security and data protection safeguards against the destruction, loss, theft, unauthorized access, unauthorized use, or alteration of the Fund’s Confidential Information, including Customer Information, in the possession of the Transfer Agent that will be no less rigorous than those in place at the effective date of this Agreement as described in Schedule 10.6, and from time to time enhanced in accordance with changes in regulatory requirements.  The Transfer Agent will, at a minimum, update its policies to remain compliant with applicable regulatory requirements, including those under the GLB Act and the Mass Privacy Act.  The Transfer Agent will meet with the Fund, at its request, on an annual basis to discuss

17

information security safeguards and shall provide the Fund with certain information as discussed in Section 1.4 above.  If the Transfer Agent or its agents discover or are notified that someone has violated security relating to the Fund’s Confidential Information, including Customer Information, the Transfer Agent will promptly (but no later than forty-eight hours after the Transfer Agent has been notified of the violation): (a) notify the Fund of such violation, and (b) if the applicable Confidential Information was in the possession or under the control of the Transfer Agent or its agents at the time of such violation, the Transfer Agent will promptly investigate and advise the Fund as to the steps being taken with respect to such violation. If the violation of security is determined to be due to the Transfer Agent’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Section, the Transfer Agent shall, upon request of the Fund, provide credit monitoring for a one-year period to the Fund shareholders affected by the violation and such other additional services as may be required by applicable regulatory authority (e.g. identity theft insurance for impacted Fund shareholders).

10.7 Business Continuity. The Transfer Agent will maintain a comprehensive business continuity plan and will provide an executive summary of such plan upon reasonable request of the Fund. The Transfer Agent will test the adequacy of its business continuity plan at least annually and upon request, the Fund may participate in such test. Upon request by the Fund, the Transfer Agent will provide the Fund with a letter assessing the most recent business continuity test results. In the event of a business disruption that materially impacts the Transfer Agent’s provision of services under this Agreement, the Transfer Agent will promptly notify the Fund of the disruption and the steps being implemented under the business continuity plan.

11.       Termination of Agreement

11.1 Term. The initial term of this Agreement (the “Initial Term”) shall be three (3) years from the date first stated above (the “Initial Term”). This Agreement shall automatically extend for additional, successive one (1) year terms (each a “Renewal Term”) unless terminated as of the end of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term by the Fund on not less than six (6) months written notice to the Transfer Agent. One hundred twenty (120) days before the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, the Transfer Agent and the Fund will agree upon a Fee Schedule for such Renewal Term. In the event the parties fail to agree upon a new Fee Schedule as of such date, the Fee Schedule set forth as Schedule 3.1 hereto shall remain in effect subject to increase under Section 3.6. Notwithstanding the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall continue to apply until the completion of Deconversion (defined below).

11.2 Deconversion. In the event that this Agreement is terminated or not renewed for any reason by the Fund, the Transfer Agent agrees that, in order to provide for uninterrupted service to the Fund, the Transfer Agent, at Fund’s request, shall offer reasonable assistance to the Fund in electronically converting the Fund’s records from the Transfer Agent’s TA2000 recordkeeping system and its imaged records from the Transfer Agent’s AWD System to whatever systems are designated by the Fund (the “Deconversion”). Such Deconversion is subject to the recompense of the Transfer Agent for such assistance at its standard rates and fees in effect at the time and to a reasonable time frame for performance as agreed to by the parties. As used herein “reasonable assistance” shall not include requiring the Transfer Agent (i) to assist any new service or system provider to modify, to alter, to enhance, or to improve such provider’s system, or to provide any new functionality

18

to such provider’s system, (ii) to disclose any protected information of the Transfer Agent, including the Proprietary Information as defined in Section 6.1, or (iii) to develop Deconversion software, to modify any of the Transfer Agent’s software, or to otherwise alter the format of the data as maintained on any provider’s systems.

11.3       Termination or Non-Renewal.

(a) Outstanding Fees and Charges. In the event of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Fund will promptly pay the Transfer Agent all fees and charges for the services provided under this Agreement (i) which have been accrued and remain unpaid as of the date of such notice of termination or non-renewal and (ii) which thereafter accrue for the period through and including the date of the Fund’s Deconversion.

(b) Deconversion Costs. In the event of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Fund shall pay the Transfer Agent for the Deconversion costs as noted in Section 11.2.

(c) Post-Deconversion Support Fees. In the event of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Fund shall pay the Transfer Agent all reasonable fees and expenses for providing any support services that the Fund requests the Transfer Agent to provide post Deconversion, including but not limited to tax reporting and open issue resolution.

The amounts set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, shall become due and payable and shall be paid by the Fund on the business day immediately prior to the Deconversion. The amounts set forth in (c) shall be invoiced as incurred and paid promptly by the Fund upon receipt of such invoices.

11.4 Confidential Information. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall return to the other party all copies of confidential or proprietary materials or information received from such other party hereunder, other than materials or information required to be retained by such party under applicable laws or regulations.

11.5 Unpaid Invoices. The Transfer Agent may terminate this Agreement immediately upon an unpaid invoice payable by the Fund to the Transfer Agent being outstanding for more than ninety (90) days after receipt by the Fund, except with respect to any amount subject to a good faith dispute within the meaning of Section 3.5 of this Agreement.

11.6 Bankruptcy. Either party hereto may terminate this Agreement by notice to the other party, effective at any time specified therein, in the event that (a) the other party ceases to carry on its business or (b) an action is commenced by or against the other party under Title 11 of the United States Code or a receiver, conservator or similar officer is appointed for the other party and such suit, conservatorship or receivership is not discharged within thirty (30) days.

11.7 Cause. If one of the parties hereto shall be materially in default in the performance of any of its duties and obligations under this Agreement (the “Defaulting Party”), the other party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) may give written notice thereof to the Defaulting Party in sufficient detail to permit the Defaulting Party to identify and cure such default. and if such default or breach shall not have been remedied within sixty (60) days after such written notice is given, or, if not capable of remedy within sixty (60) days, a good faith effort is not promptly commenced and thereafter diligently pursued in an appropriate manner, then the Non-Defaulting Party may terminate the Agreement by giving, within ninety (90) days of the date on which such right of termination first commenced, one hundred and twenty (120) days written notice of such termination to the Defaulting Party.

19

11.8 The parties agree that the effective date of any Deconversion as a result of termination hereof shall not occur during the period from December 15th through March 1st of any year to avoid adversely impacting a year-end.

11.9 Within thirty (30) days after completion of a Deconversion, the Funds will give notice to the Transfer Agent containing reasonable instructions regarding the disposition of tapes, data files, records, original source documentation or other property belonging to the Fund and then in the Transfer Agent’s possession and shall make payment for the Transfer Agent’s reasonable costs to comply with such notice. If the Fund fails to give that notice within thirty (30) days after termination of this Agreement, then the Transfer Agent may dispose of such property as it sees fit. The reasonable costs of any such disposition or of the continued storage of such tapes, data files, records, original source documentation or other properties shall be billed to, and within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice paid by, the Fund. Failure to pay such sums when due shall incur a late charge in accordance with Section 3.7 of this Agreement. The Transfer Agent may keep one copy of certain Fund related records to the extent, and for such period, as may be legally required in order to comply with regulatory requirements applicable to the Transfer Agent, as discussed under Section 10.3. The Transfer Agent, upon request, will provide the Fund with a certification as to the disposition pursuant to this Section 11.9 of any such tapes, data files, records, original source documentation or other property belonging to the Fund.

12.       Assignment and Third Party Beneficiaries

Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by either party without the written consent of the other party. Any attempt to do so in violation of this Section shall be void. Unless specifically stated to the contrary in any written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any duty or responsibility under this Agreement.

Except as explicitly stated elsewhere in this Agreement, nothing under this Agreement shall be construed to give any rights or benefits in this Agreement to anyone other than the Transfer Agent and the Fund, and the duties and responsibilities undertaken pursuant to this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Transfer Agent and the Fund. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

This Agreement does not constitute an agreement for a partnership or joint venture between the Transfer Agent and the Fund. Neither party shall make any commitments with third parties that are binding on the other party without the other party’s prior written consent.

13. Subcontractors

20

Transfer Agent shall be fully responsible to the Funds for the acts and omissions of its affiliate as it is for its own acts and omissions. The foregoing shall not be deemed to apply to any direct contracts between the Fund and any affiliate of the Transfer Agent as to which the Transfer Agent is not a party. All Services performed by the Transfer Agent shall be performed within the U.S. unless the Fund has been notified as set forth in subsections (b) or (c) below, that Services may be performed outside of the U.S. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Transfer Agent may, without further notification or consent of the Fund, subcontract or delegate the performance of services hereunder with an offshore affiliate of the Transfer Agent for the purposes of development and programming support related activities.

(b) Except as provided in paragraph (c) below, if the Transfer Agent engages a domestic or offshore third party (excluding any Transfer Agent affiliate) to provide services under this Agreement which will cause such third party to have encrypted access to the Funds’ Confidential Information, the Transfer Agent shall provide, (i) notice (but does not need to be prior notice and does not require the Funds’ consent) of such engagement, provided, however, such notice may be accomplished if, as part of a regularly scheduled management meeting with the Transfer Agent and the Funds, the Transfer Agent provides to the Funds a list summarizing such third parties that may be used by the Transfer Agent and the services that may be provided, and (ii) provide the Funds an opportunity to review the Transfer Agent’s policies and procedures which govern the Transfer Agent’s management of its relationship with those parties including, if applicable, reasonable documents showing the Transfer Agent’s diligence of such third parties.

(c) If the Transfer Agent engages an offshore third party (excluding any Transfer Agent affiliate) to provide services under the Agreement which requires such third party to have unencrypted access to Customer Information, the Transfer Agent shall provide, (i) prior notice and receive the Funds’ consent of such engagement, provided, however, such notice and consent may be accomplished if, as part of a regularly scheduled management meeting with the Transfer Agent and the Funds, the Transfer Agent provides to the Funds a list of such third parties used by the Transfer Agent and the Funds consent to such use, and (ii) provide the Funds an opportunity to review any offshore environment of such third party and the Transfer Agent’s policies and procedures which govern the Transfer Agent’s management of its relationship with those parties including, if applicable, reasonable documents showing the Transfer Agent’s diligence of such third parties.

(d) The above requirements do not apply to the Transfer Agent’s use of third parties (including third party software as a service platforms or tools that may be hosted outside of the Transfer Agent, and cloud services or email services such as Microsoft 360 or similar tools) who will not have unencrypted access to Customer Confidential Information.

(e) For purposes of the above provisions, domestic work is work performed in the United States and offshore work is work that is performed outside of the United States, provided, such work may not be performed in OFAC Sanctioned Countries as well as the People's Democratic Republic of Korea (North Korea), Russia and Russia controlled territories, and the People's Republic of China outside of the Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau).

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, unaffiliated third parties such as, by way of example and not limitation, Airborne Services, Federal Express, United Parcel Service, the U.S. Mails, the NSCC and telecommunication companies, shall not be deemed to be subcontractors of the Transfer Agent.

The Fund agrees to pay the Transfer Agent promptly for modifications and improvements which are charged for separately at the rate provided for in the Transfer Agent’s standard pricing schedule which shall be identical for substantially all clients, if a standard pricing schedule shall exist. If there is no standard pricing schedule, the parties shall mutually agree upon the rates to be charged.

The Transfer Agent shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to alter and modify any systems, programs, procedures or facilities used or employed in performing its duties and obligations hereunder; provided that the Fund will be notified as promptly as possible prior to implementation of such alterations and modifications and that no such alteration or modification or deletion shall materially adversely change or affect the operations and procedures of the Fund in using or employing the TA2000 System or the Transfer Agent’s facilities hereunder or the reports to be generated by such system and facilities hereunder, unless the Fund is given thirty (30) days prior notice to allow the Fund to change its procedures and unless the Transfer Agent provides the Fund with revised operating procedures and controls.

All enhancements, improvements, changes, modifications or new features added to the TA2000 System however developed or paid for shall be, and shall remain, the confidential and exclusive property of, and proprietary to, DST.

The Transfer Agent hereby consents to such examination and/or inspection and agrees to cooperate with such federal examiners in connection with their review. For purposes of such examination and/or inspection, the Transfer Agent will use its best efforts to make available, during normal business hours and on reasonable notice all required records and information for review by such examiners.

3. Limitation on Delegation. The Fund acknowledges and agrees that in accepting the delegation hereunder, the Transfer Agent is agreeing to perform only the AML Procedures, as may be amended from time to time, and is not undertaking and shall not be responsible for any other aspect of the AML Program or for the overall compliance by the Fund with the USA PATRIOT Act or for any other matters that have not been delegated hereunder.
