Services

December 23, 2020

I. Standard Services:

1. Original Allocation Methodology. The Fund will provide to State Street an instruction containing the applicable allocation methodology (selected from Attachment D) and percentages for the allocation of assets to each Underlying Fund.

2. Updates to Asset Allocation Methodology. From time to time, a Fund may send instructions to State Street’s Dynamic Cash team to revise or cancel a previously provided allocation instruction. (Instructions provided by the Fund to other areas of State Street will not be deemed received by the Dynamic Cash Team.) All such changes to standing allocation/rebalance instructions must be provided by the Fund to State Street in writing at least two (2) business days prior to the Fund’s desired effective date (or rebalance reporting deadline, if applicable). If new underlying investments are to be added to a Fund’s profile, instruction must be provided by the Fund to State Street at least (4) four weeks in advance of the Fund’s desired effective date.

3. Reporting. Based on the Fund’s reasonable requests, State Street will provide reporting on a schedule as agreed to by State Street and the Fund or as requested by the Fund.  Such reporting may include Allocation Reports, which are a post-allocation report of allocations already processed and are based, in part, on parameters from the accounting platform; Trade Detail Reports, which are post-allocation reports of confirmed trade details resulting from the allocations and include dollars, price and shares of each trade; and Hypothetical Rebalance Reports, which are point-in-time reports (based on the available market values at the time the report is produced) showing the impact of hypothetical trading on the Fund’s chosen target allocation percentages. The foregoing reports are compiled using the Fund’s allocation profile, and the State Street Dynamic Cash allocation system, and multiple information sources including but not limited to, the share value of the Underlying Funds, the market value of the Underlying Funds, and the cash balances of the Funds. In providing the reports, State Street relies on the accuracy of information made available to it from the Fund, third parties (e.g. pricing sources), and data that is accessible to State Street due to it acting in another capacity for the Fund (e.g. custodian, fund accountant, etc.). The Fund hereby authorizes State Street to access such information and data in order to provide these Services. As noted in Section 3 of the Agreement, the Services provided under this Agreement are distinct from the services under any other agreements between State Street and the Fund. The terms of this Agreement, rather than such other agreements, shall govern the delivery of these Dynamic Cash Services, including the reports made available hereunder. State Street’s obligations with respect to the accuracy of any data maintained by State Street in connection with another service (e.g. custody, accounting, etc.) is governed by the agreement with respect to such other service. The reports are being provided to the Fund for informational purposes based on the foregoing parameters and are not intended as, and do not constitute, an investment recommendation by State Street.

4. Hard Rebalance. State Street will execute Hard Rebalances, as defined in Attachment D, based upon the Fund’s instructions. Unless instructed otherwise by the Fund, the rebalance will be based upon the prior market values of the Underlying Funds as of the prior business day.

5. Allocation of Daily Cash Flows - Standard Allocation Deadline. Each business day State Street’s Dynamic Cash allocation team systematically receives information on each Fund’s available cash balances as of State Street’s standard allocation deadline of 5:25AM ET (the “Standard Allocation Deadline” as reflected on Attachment E). Cash balances are then allocated by State Street according

3

to the Fund’s standing allocation methodology and profile instructions. State Street submits the transactions directly to the Underlying Fund’s transfer agent (in some cases, State Street), or into the Underlying Funds via State Street’s third party trading partner, and/or the NSCC. (Non-standard Allocation Deadlines are considered Exception Services and are discussed in Section II below.)

6. Pre-Notification. Except as specified in Section II. 2 below or as otherwise agreed by State Street and a Fund in writing, the Fund shall be responsible for satisfying the pre-notification requirements of any Underlying Funds in which the Fund wishes to invest available cash. State Street will not be responsible or liable for any rejections of a fund investment by the Underlying Fund manager.

II. Exception Services. The following services are not part of State Street’s standard services. They will be provided by State Street only on an exception basis and only when expressly agreed upon by State Street in writing (“Exception Services”). The Standard of Care set forth in Section 3 of the Agreement is modified hereby with respect to Exception Services and State Street shall assume no responsibility and shall be without liability of any kind for any Losses suffered or incurred by the Fund in connection with State Street’s performance of the Exception Services.

1. Ad hoc Instructions/Daily Cash Flows. On a periodic basis, the Fund may submit Ad hoc instructions to State Street’s Dynamic Cash team to allocate cash for the next Fund Allocation Deadline using specified dollar amounts rather than the Asset Allocation Methodology. (Instructions provided by the Fund to other areas of State Street will not be deemed received by the Dynamic Cash Team.) Ad hoc instructions must be provided in Good Order (defined below) to the Dynamic Cash Team by 4:00PM ET on the trade date. An item will not be deemed in Good Order if it contains errors, has insufficient information for processing, or fails to satisfy processing requirements of State Street, an Underlying Fund or such Underlying Fund’s transfer agent, the NSCC, or applicable trading partners. Examples of items not in Good Order include, but are not limited to, instructions for: (i) an Underlying Fund that has not previously been communicated to State Street; (ii) an Underlying Fund for which the Fund has not carried out required pre-notification; (iii) a trade date of a prior day; (iv) a settlement that is not trade date +1; or (v) a rebalance allocation intended to be a non-cash movement between investments that does not equal to exactly $0.00. Any trade instructions that are not in Good Order will be rejected by State Street. Such trade instructions will be processed by State Street at the next available NAV after being resubmitted by the Fund with new instructions. The new instructions would follow the same process as outlined above.

2. Scheduled Rebalance Trades/Pre-Notification. State Street will submit pre-notifications with respect to scheduled rebalance trades only with respect to the Underlying Funds designated on the Fund’s profile; provided that such profile has been confirmed by State Street in writing. The Fund will provide to State Street the details of any pre-notification requirements applicable to its Underlying Fund investments. The Fund will be responsible for notifying State Street of any changes to such pre-notification requirements. The pre-notification amount for rebalance trades is calculated by State Street in advance of a rebalance date in accordance with the standing allocation methodology/profile instructions provided by or on behalf of the Fund and based on current available market values at the time, which are subject to change. The transaction amounts reported for pre-notification purposes are subject to change and may differ from the actual transactions that are submitted, due to cash flows, market fluctuations, and other factors. State Street will attempt to submit the Scheduled Rebalance investments in accordance with the applicable pre-notification requirements, but will not be responsible or liable for any rejections of a Fund investment by the Underlying Fund manager.

3. Late Activity. Any changes in available cash received by State Street from the Fund after the Fund’s Allocation Deadline (“late activity”), will be allocated by State Street at the next available NAV. The Fund must provide written instructions to State Street’s Dynamic Cash Team with respect to revising or cancelling a transaction or allocating late activity for the prior day’s NAV. All instructions must be based on activity that was deemed as received in good order by the Fund by close of market on trade date. (Instructions provided by the Fund to other areas of State Street will not be deemed received by the Dynamic Cash Team.) Upon receipt of such an instruction, State Street will attempt to carry out the instructed action with the Underlying Fund manager(s) and request price protection from such manager(s). State Street shall have no responsibility or liability for any same day processing that is performed for late activity. State Street will notify the Fund if the cancellation, revision or late activity was accepted or rejected by the Underlying Fund manager. If the action is not accepted by the Underlying Fund manager, it will be allocated for the next available NAV, and the Fund or Fund’s investment manager will provide further instruction regarding the activity.

4. Allocation of Daily Cash Flows -- Non-Standard Allocation Deadlines. Each business day State Street’s Dynamic Cash allocation team will receive information on a Fund’s available cash balances as of a non-standard allocation deadline selected by the Fund (the “Non-Standard Allocation Deadlines”), which are set forth on Attachment E. Cash balances are then allocated by State Street according to the Fund’s standing allocation methodology and profile instructions. State Street will attempt to submit the transactions directly to the Underlying Fund’s transfer agent (in some cases, State Street), or into the Underlying Funds via State Street’s third party trading partner, and/or the NSCC.

Attachment D

Asset Allocation Methodologies

1. Static. This method uses the predetermined fixed allocation percentages for Underlying Funds that have been previously communicated to State Street by the Fund and calculates an applicable allocation dollar amount for each Underlying Fund based on that applicable percentage.

2. Soft-Target Rebalance. This method uses the predetermined allocation percentages for Underlying Funds previously communicated to State Street by the Fund and compares the then-current market value for each Underlying Fund to identify the under-weighted or over-weighted Underlying Fund(s). Available cash is then allocated by State Street proportionately to each Underlying Fund(s) to bring the Fund’s holdings of each Underlying Fund closer to its target allocation percentage.

3. Soft-Target Rebalance Out of Variance. Under this method, cash is allocated first to the Underlying Fund with the greatest variance from its target allocation percentage. Once the Underlying Fund with the greatest variance is brought to its target allocation percentage, any remaining cash is allocated by State Street to the Underlying Fund with the next greatest variance from its target allocation percentage, and continues on to the next greatest variance subject to available cash.

4. Existing Ratio. This method uses the current market value of each Underlying Fund to calculate the allocation amount for each Underlying Fund based on its current percentage allocation weighting. Available cash is then allocated by State Street pursuant to the calculation described in the preceding sentence.

5. Hard Rebalance. With this method, rebalancing is performed by State Street to bring the Underlying Fund’s holdings to their respective target percentages. Optional thresholds can be applied to limit the rebalance trades to Underlying Funds that are outside of a stated threshold. The cash movement for the hard rebalance nets to zero, and this method can be scheduled or performed on an ad hoc basis.
