this or any other paragraph of this Agreement, Repo Custodian shall
take, or cause to be taken, the following actions to perfect the
Participating Funds' interest in such Securities as an outright
purchaser: (i) in the case of certificated securities and instruments
held by Seller, by physical delivery of the share certificates or
other instruments representing the Securities and by physical
segregation of such certificates or instruments from the Repo
Custodian's other assets in a manner indicating that the Securities
are being held for the Participating Funds (such securities and
instruments to be delivered in form suitable for transfer or
accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment in
blank and accompanied by such other documentation as the Participating
Funds may request), (ii) in the case of Securities held in a customer
only account in a clearing agency or federal book-entry system
authorized for use by the Funds and meeting the requirements of Rule
17f-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940
Act") (such authorized agency or system being referred to herein as a
"Securities System"), by appropriate entry on the books and records of
Repo Custodian identifying the Securities as belonging to the
Participating Funds, or (iii) in the case of Securities held in Repo
Custodian's own account in a Securities System, by transfer to a
customer only account in the Securities System and by appropriate
entry on the books and records of Repo Custodian identifying such
Securities as belonging to the Participating Funds; provided, further,
that Repo Custodian shall confirm to the Participating Funds the
identity of the Securities transferred or delivered. Acceptance of a
"due ▇▇▇▇", "trust receipt" or similar receipt or notification of
segregation issued by a third party with respect to Securities held by
such third party shall not constitute good delivery of Securities to
Repo Custodian for purposes of this Agreement or the Master Agreement
and shall expressly violate the terms of this Agreement and the Master
Agreement. The Funds shall identify by notice to Repo Custodian and
Seller those agencies or systems which have been approved by the Funds
for use under this Agreement and the Master Agreement. The Funds
hereby notify Repo Custodian and Seller that the following agencies
and systems have been approved by the Funds for use under this
Agreement and the Master Agreement, until such time as Repo Custodian
and Seller shall have been notified by the Funds to the contrary: (i)
Participants Trust Company; (ii) The Depository Trust Company; and
(iii) any book-entry system as provided in (A) Subpart O of Treasury
Circular ▇▇. ▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇ 306.115, (B) Subpart B of Treasury Circular
Public Debt Series ▇▇. ▇▇-▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇ 350.2, or (C) the book-entry
regulations of federal agencies substantially in the form of 31 CFR
306.115.
4. Repurchase Transactions.
(a) Repo Custodian shall make all credits and debits to the
Transaction Account and effect the transfer of Securities to or from
the Participating Funds upon proper instructions received from the
Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating
Funds, and shall make all credits and debits to the Seller Account and
effect the transfer of Securities to or from the Seller upon proper
instructions received from Seller. In the event that Repo Custodian
receives conflicting proper instructions from Seller and the
Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating
Funds, Repo Custodian shall follow the Participating Funds' or the
Custodian's proper instructions. The Participating Funds shall give
Repo Custodian only such instructions as shall be permitted by the
Master Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the
Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating
Funds, may from time to time instruct Repo Custodian to transfer cash
from the Transaction Account to Custodian.
(b) (i) Whenever on any Banking Day one or more Funds and Seller agree
to enter into a repurchase transaction, Seller and the Participating
Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating Funds, will
give Repo Custodian proper instructions by telephone or otherwise on
the Sale Date, specifying the Transaction Category, Repurchase Date,
Sale Price, Repurchase Price or the applicable Pricing Rate and the
Margin Percentage for each such repurchase transaction.
(ii) In the case of repurchase transactions in which the Repurchase
Date is the Banking Day next following the Sale Date (x) the
Participating Funds may increase or decrease the Sale Price for any
such repurchase transaction by no more than 10% of the initial Sale
Price by causing to be delivered further proper instructions by
telephone or otherwise to Repo Custodian prior to the close of
business on the Sale Date and (y) Seller and the Participating Funds
may by mutual consent agree to increase or decrease the Sale Price by
more than 10% of the initial Sale Price by causing to be provided
further proper instructions to Repo Custodian by the close of business
on the Sale Date. In any event, Repo Custodian shall not be
responsible for determining whether any such increase or decrease of
the Sale Price exceeds the 10% limitation.
(c) Seller will take such actions as are necessary to ensure that on
the Sale Date the aggregate Market Value of all Securities held by
Repo Custodian for Seller and cash in the Seller Account equals or
exceeds the Margin Percentage of the Sale Price. Seller shall give
Repo Custodian proper instructions specifying with respect to each of
the Securities which is to be the subject of a repurchase transaction
(a) the name of the issuer and the title of the Securities, and (b)
the Market Value of such Securities. Such instructions shall
constitute Seller's instructions to Repo Custodian to transfer the
Securities to the Participating Funds and/or Cash Collateral from the
Seller Account to the Transaction Account.
(d) Prior to the close of business on the Sale Date, the
Participating Funds shall transfer to, or maintain on deposit with,
Repo Custodian in the Transaction Account immediately available funds
in an amount equal to the Sale Price with respect to a particular
repurchase transaction.
(e) Prior to the close of business on the Sale Date, Repo Custodian
shall transfer Securities from Seller to the Participating Funds
and/or cash held in the Seller Account to the Transaction Account and
shall transfer to the Seller Account immediately available funds from
the Transaction Account in accordance with the following provisions:
(i) Repo Custodian shall determine that all securities to be
transferred by Seller to the Participating Funds are Eligible
Securities. Any securities which are not Eligible Securities for a
particular repurchase transaction hereunder shall not be included in
the calculations set forth below and shall not be transferred to the
Participating Funds.
(ii) Repo Custodian shall then calculate the aggregate Market Value
of the Securities and cash, if any, to be so transferred.
(iii) Repo Custodian shall notify Seller in the event that the
aggregate Market Value of Securities and cash, if any, applicable to
the repurchase transaction is less than the Margin Percentage of the
Sale Price and Seller shall transfer, by the close of business on the
Sale Date, to Repo Custodian additional Securities and/or cash in the
amount of such deficiency. If Seller does not, by the close of
business on the Sale Date, transfer additional Securities and/or cash,
the Market Value of which equals or exceeds such deficiency, Repo
Custodian may, at its option, without notice to Seller, advance the
amount of such deficiency to Seller in order to effectuate the
repurchase transaction. It is expressly agreed that Repo Custodian is
not obligated to make an advance to Seller to enable it to complete
any repurchase transaction.
(iv) Subject to the provisions of Subparagraph (v) below, Repo
Custodian shall cause the Securities applicable to the repurchase
transaction received from Seller to be transferred to the
Participating Funds and shall cause any cash received from Seller to
be transferred to the Transaction Account, against transfer of the
Sale Price from the Transaction Account to the Seller Account, such
transfers of Securities and/or cash and funds to occur simultaneously
on a delivery versus payment basis.
(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if, for any repurchase
transaction, the amount of immediately available funds in the
Transaction Account is less than the agreed upon Sale Price in
connection with the repurchase transaction immediately prior to
effectuating such repurchase transaction, or if the aggregate Market
Value of the Securities and cash, if any, applicable to such
repurchase transaction is less than the Sale Price multiplied by the
Margin Percentage immediately prior to effectuating such repurchase
transaction, Repo Custodian shall effect the repurchase transaction to
the best of its ability by transferring Securities from Seller to the
Participating Funds and/or cash from the Seller Account to the
Transaction Account with an aggregate Market Value equal to the lesser
of (x) the amount of immediately available funds in the Transaction
Account multiplied by the Margin Percentage and (y) the aggregate
Market Value of the Securities available for transfer from Seller to
the Participating Funds and cash, if any, in the Seller Account,
against the transfer of immediately available funds from the
Transaction Account to the Seller Account in an amount equal to the
aggregate Market Value of the Securities and/or cash to be transferred
divided by the Margin Percentage; provided, however, that in either
such event Repo Custodian shall have the right not to transfer to the
Participating Funds such Securities and not to transfer such cash, if
any, to the Transaction Account and not to transfer from the
designated Transaction Account such funds as Repo Custodian
determines, in its sole discretion, will not be the subject of a
repurchase transaction. The actions of Repo Custodian pursuant to
this subparagraph (e)(v) shall not affect the obligations and
liabilities of the parties to each other pursuant to the Master
Agreement with regard to such repurchase transaction.
(f) In the event that on a Banking Day Seller desires to substitute
Securities applicable to such repurchase transaction with Eligible
Securities and/or Cash Collateral (to the extent provided in the
Master Agreement), Repo Custodian shall perform such substitution in
accordance with the following provisions:
(i) Repo Custodian shall determine that all securities to be
transferred to the Participating Funds are Eligible Securities. Any
securities which are not eligible for repurchase transactions
hereunder shall not be included in the calculations set forth below
and shall not be transferred to the Participating Funds.
(ii) Repo Custodian shall then calculate the aggregate Market Value
of the Eligible Securities and/or Cash Collateral to be transferred.
Repo Custodian shall not make any substitution if, at the time of
substitution, the aggregate Market Value of all Securities and any
Cash Collateral applicable to such repurchase transaction immediately
after such substitution would be less than the Margin Percentage of
the Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase Date were the
date of substitution).
(iii) Repo Custodian shall then deliver to the Seller, subject to the
qualifications set forth above, the Securities to be substituted
against the delivery by Repo Custodian of substitute Eligible
Securities to the Participating Funds and/or the crediting of the
Transaction Account with Cash Collateral.
(iv) In the event Seller has caused Repo Custodian to credit the
Transaction Account with Cash Collateral in lieu of substitute
Eligible Securities, and has failed to deliver Eligible Securities
against such Cash Collateral not later than the close of business on
such Banking Day in accordance with the terms of the Master Agreement,
Repo Custodian shall promptly, but in no event later than 10:00 a.m.
the following Banking Day, notify the Participating Funds and Seller
of such failure.
(g) With respect to each repurchase transaction, at 10:00 a.m. New
York time, or at such other time as specified in proper instructions
of the Participating Funds (or the Custodian on behalf of the
Participating Funds) on the Repurchase Date, Repo Custodian shall
debit the Seller Account and credit the Transaction Account in the
amount of the Repurchase Price and shall transfer Securities from the
Participating Funds to the Seller and Cash Collateral, if any, from
the Transaction Account to the Seller Account in accordance with the
following provisions:
(i) If the amount of available funds in the Seller Account equals or
exceeds the Repurchase Price, Repo Custodian shall debit the Seller
Account and credit the Transaction Account in the amount of the
Repurchase Price and shall transfer all Securities applicable to such
repurchase transaction from the Participating Funds to the Seller and
debit the Transaction Account and credit the Seller Account in the
amount of any Cash Collateral applicable to such repurchase
transaction.
(ii) If the amount of available funds in the Seller Account is less
than the Repurchase Price, then Repo Custodian shall notify the Seller
of the amount of the deficiency and Seller shall promptly cause such
amount to be transferred to the Seller Account. If Seller fails to
cause the transfer of the entire amount of the deficiency to the
Seller Account, then Repo Custodian may, at its option and without
notice to Seller, advance to Seller the amount of such remaining
deficiency. It is expressly agreed that Repo Custodian is not
obligated to make any advance to Seller. If, following such transfer
and/or advance, the amount of available funds in the Seller Account
equals or exceeds the Repurchase Price then Repo Custodian shall debit
the Seller Account and credit the Transaction Account in the amount of
the Repurchase Price and shall transfer from the Participating Funds
to the Seller all Securities applicable to such repurchase transaction
and debit the Transaction Account and credit the Seller Account in the
amount of any Cash Collateral applicable to such repurchase
transaction.
(iii) If the Seller fails to cause the transfer of the entire amount
of the deficiency, as required by (ii) above, and Repo Custodian fails
to advance to Seller an amount sufficient to eliminate the entire
deficiency, then Repo Custodian shall debit the Seller Account in the
amount of all immediately available funds designated by Seller as
applicable to the repurchase transaction and credit the Transaction
Account in such amount (such amount being referred to as the "Partial
Payment") and shall transfer Securities from the Participating Funds
to the Seller such that the aggregate Market Value of all remaining
Securities and Cash Collateral in the Transaction Account with respect
to such repurchase transaction shall at least equal the difference
between Margin Percentage of the Repurchase Price and the Partial
Payment.
5. Payments on Securities. Repo Custodian shall credit to the Seller
Account as soon as received, all principal, interest and other sums
paid by or on behalf of the issuer in respect of the Securities and
collected by Repo Custodian, except as otherwise provided in Paragraph
8 of the Master Agreement.
6. Daily Statement. On each Banking Day on which any Participating
Funds have an outstanding repurchase transaction, Repo Custodian shall
deliver by facsimile to Custodian and to the Participating Funds a
statement identifying the Securities held by Repo Custodian with
respect to such repurchase transaction and the cash and Cash
Collateral, if any, held by Repo Custodian in the Transaction Account,
including a statement of the then current Market Value of such
Securities and the amounts, if any, credited to the Transaction
Account as of the close of trading on the previous Banking Day. Repo
Custodian shall also deliver to Custodian and the Participating Funds
such additional statements as the Participating Funds may reasonably
request.
7. Valuation.
(a) Repo Custodian shall confirm the Market Value of Securities and
the amount of Cash Collateral, if any (i) on the Sale Date prior to
transferring the Sale Price out of the Transaction Account to the
Seller Account against the receipt from Seller of the Securities and
Cash Collateral, if any, and (ii) on each Banking Day on which such
repurchase transaction is outstanding. If on any Banking Day the
aggregate Market Value of the Securities and Cash Collateral with
respect to any repurchase transaction is less than the Margin
Percentage of the Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase
Date were such Banking Day) for such transaction, Repo Custodian shall
promptly, but in any case no later than 10:00 a.m. the following
Banking Day, notify Seller. If on any Banking Day the aggregate
market value of the Securities and Cash Collateral with respect to any
repurchase transaction is less than the Margin Percentage of the
Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase Date were such
Banking Day) for such transaction, and Seller fails to deliver
additional Eligible Securities applicable to such repurchase
transaction or an additional amount of Cash Collateral by the close of
business on such Banking Day such that the aggregate market value of
the Securities and Cash Collateral at least equals the Margin
Percentage of the Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase
Date were such Banking Day), Repo Custodian shall promptly, but in any
event no later than 10:00 a.m. the following Banking Day, notify the
Participating Funds of such failure. For purposes of determining
Seller's margin maintenance requirements on the Sale Date for
repurchase transactions in which the Repurchase Date is the Banking
Day immediately following the Sale Date, such aggregate market value
shall equal at least the Margin Percentage of the Sale Price.
(b) Repo Custodian shall determine the bid side portion of the Market
Value of the Securities by reference to the independent pricing
services ("Pricing Services") set forth on Schedule B. It is
understood and agreed that Repo Custodian shall use the prices made
available by the Pricing Services on the Banking Day of such
determination unless Seller and the Participating Funds mutually agree
that some other prices shall be used and so notify Repo Custodian by
proper instructions of the sum of the prices of all such Securities
priced in such different manner. In the event that Repo Custodian is
unable to obtain a valuation of any Securities from the Pricing
Services, Repo Custodian shall request a bid quotation from a broker's
broker or a broker dealer, set forth in Schedule B, other than Seller.
In the event Repo Custodian is unable to obtain a bid quotation for
any Securities from such a broker's broker or a broker dealer, Repo
Custodian (i) shall not include any such Securities in the
determination of whether the aggregate Market Value of the Securities
and any Cash Collateral equals at least the Margin Percentage of the
Repurchase Price and (ii) shall redeliver such Securities to Seller if
the Market Value of all other Securities and any Cash Collateral with
respect to such repurchase transaction equals at least the Margin
Percentage of the Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase
Date were such Banking Day). The Repo Custodian may rely on prices
quoted by Pricing Services, broker's brokers or broker dealers, except
Seller, as set forth in Schedule B.
(c) (i) If, on any Banking Day, the aggregate Market Value of the
Securities and any Cash Collateral with respect to a repurchase
transaction is less than the Margin Percentage of the Repurchase Price
(calculated as if the Repurchase Date were such Banking Day)
applicable to such repurchase transaction, Repo Custodian shall
deliver to the Participating Funds an amount of additional Eligible
Securities applicable to such repurchase transaction and/or debit the
Seller Account and credit the Transaction Account with an additional
amount of Cash Collateral, such that the aggregate Market Value of all
Securities and any Cash Collateral with respect to such repurchase
transaction shall equal at least the Margin Percentage of the
Repurchase Price (calculated as if the Repurchase Date were such
Banking Day) applicable to such repurchase transaction; except that,
for purposes of determining Seller's margin maintenance requirements
on the Sale Date for repurchase transactions in which the Repurchase
Date is the Banking Day immediately following the Sale Date, such
aggregate market value shall equal at least the Margin Percentage of
the Sale Price.
(ii) If, on any Banking Day, the aggregate Market Value of the
Securities and any Cash Collateral with respect to a repurchase
transaction exceeds the Margin Percentage of the Repurchase Price
(calculated as if the Repurchase Date were such Banking Day)
applicable to such repurchase transaction, Repo Custodian shall return
to the Seller all or a portion of such Securities or Cash Collateral,
if any; provided that the Market Value of the remaining Securities and
any Cash Collateral with respect to the repurchase transaction shall
be at least equal to the Margin Percentage of the Repurchase Price
(calculated as if the Repurchase Date were such Banking Day)
applicable to such repurchase transaction. At any time and from time
to time with respect to any repurchase transaction, if authorized by
the Participating Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the
Participating Funds, the Repo Custodian shall debit the Transaction
Account by an amount of Cash Collateral and credit the Seller Account
by the same amount of Cash Collateral against simultaneous delivery
from Seller to the Participating Funds of Eligible Securities
applicable to such repurchase transaction with a Market Value at least
equal to the amount of Cash Collateral credited and debited.
8. Authorized Persons. Schedule C hereto sets forth those persons
who are authorized to act for Repo Custodian, Custodian, Seller and
the Funds, respectively, under this Agreement.
9. Proper Instructions. Proper instructions shall mean a tested
telex, facsimile, a written request, direction, instruction or
certification signed or initialed by or on behalf of the party giving
the instructions by one or more authorized persons (as provided in
Paragraph 8); provided, however, that no instructions directing the
delivery of Securities or the payment of funds to any individual who
is an authorized signatory of Custodian or Repo Custodian shall be
signed by that individual. Telephonic, other oral or
electro-mechanical or electronic instructions (including the code
which may be assigned by Repo Custodian to Custodian from time to
time) given by one of the above authorized persons shall also be
considered proper instructions if the party receiving such
instructions reasonably believes them to have been given by an
authorized person with respect to the transaction involved. Oral
instructions will be confirmed by tested telex, facsimile or in
writing in the manner set forth above. The Funds authorize Repo
Custodian to tape record any and all telephonic or other oral
instructions given to Repo Custodian. Proper instructions may relate
to specific transactions or to types or classes of transactions, and
may be in the form of standing instructions.
10. Standard of Care.
(a) Repo Custodian shall be obligated to exercise reasonable care and
diligence in carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and the
Master Agreement and shall be liable to each of the Funds and Seller
for any expenses or damages to the Funds or Seller for breach of Repo
Custodian's standard of care in this Agreement, as further provided in
this Paragraph. Repo Custodian assumes responsibility for loss to any
property held by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement which
is occasioned by the negligence of, or conversion, misappropriation or
theft by, Repo Custodian's officers, employees and agents. Repo
Custodian, at its option, may insure itself against loss from any
cause but shall be under no obligation to obtain insurance directly
for the benefit of the Funds. So long as and to the extent that Repo
Custodian exercises reasonable care and diligence and acts without
negligence, misfeasance or misconduct, Repo Custodian shall not be
liable to Seller or the Funds for (i) any action taken or omitted in
good faith in reliance upon proper instructions, (ii) any action taken
or omitted in good faith upon any notice, request, certificate or
other instrument reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to be
signed by the proper party or parties, (iii) any delay or failure to
act as may be required under this Agreement or under the Master
Agreement when such delay or failure is due to any act of God or war,
(iv) the actions or omissions of a Securities System, (v) the title,
validity or genuineness of any security received, delivered or held by
it pursuant to this Agreement or the Master Agreement, (vi) the
legality of the purchase or sale of any Securities by or to the
Participating Funds or Seller or the propriety of the amount for which
the same are purchased or sold (except to the extent of Repo
Custodian's obligations hereunder to determine whether securities are
Eligible Securities and to calculate the Market Value of Securities
and any Cash Collateral), (vii) the due authority of any person listed
on Schedule C to act on behalf of Custodian, Seller or the Funds, as
the case may be, with respect to this Agreement or (viii) the errors
of the Pricing Services, broker's brokers or broker dealers set forth
in Schedule B.
(b) Repo Custodian shall not be liable to Seller or the Funds for, or
considered to be the custodian of, any Eligible Securities or any
money to be used in a repurchase transaction, whether or not such
money is represented by any check, draft, or other instrument for the
payment of money, until the Eligible Securities have been delivered in
accordance with Paragraph 3 or until Repo Custodian actually receives
and collects such money on behalf of Seller or the Funds directly or
by the final crediting of the Seller Account or a Transaction Account
through the Securities System, except that this Paragraph 10(b) shall
not be deemed to limit the liability of Repo Custodian to Seller or
the Funds if the non-delivery of such Eligible Securities or the
failure to receive and collect such money results from the breach by
Repo Custodian of its obligations under this Agreement or the Master
Agreement.
(c) Repo Custodian shall not be under any duty or obligation to
ascertain whether any Securities at any time delivered to or held by
it are such as properly may be held by the Participating Funds;
provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Repo
Custodian shall be obligated to act in accordance with the guidelines
and proper instructions of the Participating Funds, or the Custodian
on behalf of the Participating Funds, with respect to the types of
Eligible Securities and the issuers of such Eligible Securities that
may be used in specific repurchase transactions.
(d) Repo Custodian promptly shall notify the Fund Agent and the
Custodian if Securities held by Repo Custodian are in default or if
payment on any Securities has been refused after due demand and
presentation and Repo Custodian shall take action to effect collection
of any such amounts upon the proper instructions of the Participating
Funds, or the Custodian on behalf of the Participating Funds, and
assurances satisfactory to it that it will be reimbursed for its costs
and expenses in connection with any such action.
(e) Repo Custodian shall have no duties, other than such duties as
are necessary to effectuate repurchase transactions in accordance with
this Agreement and the Master Agreement within the standard of care
set forth in Paragraph 10(a) above and in a commercially reasonable
manner.
11. Representations and Additional Covenants of Repo Custodian.
(a) Repo Custodian represents and warrants that (i) it is duly
authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its
obligations hereunder and has taken all necessary action to authorize
such execution, delivery and performance, (ii) the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement do not and will not violate any
ordinance, declaration of trust, partnership agreement, articles of
incorporation, charter, rule or statute applicable to it or any
agreement by which it is bound or by which any of its assets are
affected, (iii) the person executing this Agreement on its behalf is
duly and properly authorized to do so, (iv) it has (and will maintain)
a copy of this Agreement and evidence of its authorization in its
official books and records, and (v) this Agreement has been executed
by one of its duly authorized officers at the level of Vice President
or higher.
(b) Repo Custodian further represents and warrants that (i) it has
not pledged, encumbered, hypothecated, transferred, disposed of, or
otherwise granted, any third party an interest in any Securities, (ii)
it does not have any security interest, lien or right of setoff in the
Securities, and (iii) it has not been notified by any third party, in
its capacity as Repo Custodian, custodian bank or clearing bank, of
the existence of any lien, claim, charge or encumbrance with respect
to any Securities that are the subject of such repurchase transaction.
Repo Custodian agrees that (i) it will not pledge, encumber,
hypothecate, transfer, dispose of, or otherwise grant, any third party
an interest in any Securities, (ii) it will not acquire any security
interest, lien or right of setoff in the Securities, and (iii) it will
promptly notify the Fund Agent, if, during the term of any outstanding
repurchase transaction, it is notified by any third party, in its
capacity as Repo Custodian, custodian bank or clearing bank, of the
Participating Funds or Seller, of the existence of any lien, claim,
charge or encumbrance with respect to any Securities that are the
subject of such repurchase transaction.
12. Indemnification.
(a) Notwithstanding the Participating Fund's obligation to the Repo
Custodian under Paragraph 12(b) below, so long as and to the extent
that Repo Custodian is in the exercise of reasonable care and
diligence and acts without negligence, misfeasance or misconduct,
Seller will indemnify Repo Custodian and hold it harmless against any
and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions to which it
may become subject, and reimburse it for any expenses (including
attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by it in connection therewith,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions arise
out of or are based upon or in any way related to this Agreement, the
Master Agreement or those arrangements. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing indemnification, Repo Custodian shall be
indemnified by Seller for all costs and expenses, including attorneys'
fees, for its successful defense against claims that Repo Custodian
breached its standard of care and was negligent or engaged in
misfeasance or misconduct.
(b) So long as and to the extent that Repo Custodian is in the
exercise of reasonable care and diligence and acts without negligence,
misconduct or misfeasance, the Participating Funds will indemnify Repo
Custodian and hold it harmless against any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or actions to which it may become subject, and
reimburse it for any expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses)
incurred by it in connection therewith, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or actions result from the negligence,
misconduct or misfeasance of the Participating Funds under this
Agreement.
13. Rights and Remedies. The rights and remedies conferred upon the
parties hereto shall be cumulative, and the exercise or waiver of any
thereof shall not preclude or inhibit the exercise of any additional
rights and remedies.
14. Modification or Amendment. Except as otherwise provided in this
Paragraph 14, no modification, waiver or amendment of this Agreement
shall be binding unless in writing and executed by the parties hereto.
Schedule A, listing the Funds, may be amended from time to time to add
or delete Funds by the Funds (i) delivering an executed copy of an
addendum to Schedule A to Seller and Repo Custodian, and (ii)
amending Schedule A to the Master Agreement in accordance with the
provisions therein. The amendment of Schedule A as provided above
shall constitute appointment of Repo Custodian as a custodian for such
Fund. Schedule B may be amended from time to time by an instrument in
writing, or counterpart thereof, executed by Repo Custodian, Seller
and the Funds. Schedule C may be amended from time to time to change
an authorized person of: (i) the Funds, by written notice to Repo
Custodian and Seller by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Treasurer of the
Funds (or such persons who may be authorized from time to time in
writing by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the President or Treasurer of Fidelity
Management and Research Company to trade on behalf of Fidelity's
taxable money market funds); (ii) Seller, by written notice to Repo
Custodian and the Funds by any Vice President of Seller; (iii) Repo
Custodian, by written notice to Seller, Custodian and the Funds by any
Vice President of Repo Custodian; and (iv) Custodian, by written
notice to Repo Custodian by any Vice President of Custodian. Schedule
D may be amended from time to time by any party hereto by delivery of
written notice to the other parties hereto. Repo Custodian shall
receive notice of any amendment to the Master Agreement at the address
set forth in Schedule D hereto; and, if such amendment would have a
material adverse effect on the rights of, or would materially increase
the obligations of Repo Custodian under this Agreement, any such
amendment shall also require the consent of Repo Custodian. Any such
amendment shall be deemed not to be material if Repo Custodian fails
to object in writing within 21 days after receipt of notice thereof.
No amendment to this Agreement shall affect the rights or obligations
of any Fund with respect to any outstanding repurchase transaction
entered into under this Agreement and the Master Agreement prior to
such amendment or with respect to any actions or omissions by any
party hereto prior to such amendment. In the event of conflict
between this Agreement and the Master Agreement, the Master Agreement
shall control.
15. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate forthwith upon
termination of the Master Agreement or may be terminated by any party
hereto on ten Banking Days' written notice to the other parties;
provided, however, that any such termination shall not affect any
repurchase transaction then outstanding or any rights or obligations
under this Agreement or the Master Agreement with respect to any
actions or omissions of any party hereto prior to termination. In the
event of termination, Repo Custodian will deliver any Securities, Cash
Collateral or cash held by it or any agent to Custodian or to such
successor custodian or custodian or subcustodian as the Participating
Funds shall instruct.
16. Compensation. Seller agrees to pay Repo Custodian compensation
for the services to be rendered hereunder, based upon rates which
shall be agreed upon from time to time.
17. Notices. Except with respect to communications between Custodian
and the Funds which shall be governed by the custodian agreement or
subcustodian agreement between such parties, as the case may be, and
except as otherwise provided herein or as the parties to the Agreement
shall from time to time otherwise agree, all instructions, notices,
reports and other communications contemplated by this Agreement shall
be given to the party entitled to receive such notice at the telephone
number and address listed on Schedule D hereto.
18. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be
unenforceable as a matter of law, the other terms and provisions
hereof shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force
and effect.
19. Binding Nature. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and
assignees; provided that, no party hereto may assign this Agreement or
any of the rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of the other parties.
20. Headings. Section headings are for reference purposes only and
shall not be construed as a part of this Agreement.
21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one
instrument.
22. Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT GIVING
EFFECT TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.
23. Limitation of Liability. Seller is hereby expressly put on
notice that the Declarations of Trust or the Certificates and
Agreements of Limited Partnership, as the case may be, of each
Participating Fund contain a limitation of liability provision
pursuant to which the obligations assumed by such Participating Fund
hereunder shall be limited in all cases to such Participating Fund and
its assets or, in the case of a series Fund, to the assets of that
series only, and neither Seller nor its respective agents or assigns
shall seek satisfaction of any such obligation from the officers,
employees, agents, directors, trustees, shareholders or partners of
any such Participating Fund or series.
24. Rights and Obligations of Each Fund. The rights and obligations
set forth in this Agreement with respect to each repurchase
transaction shall accrue only to the Participating Funds in accordance
with their respective interests therein. No other Fund shall receive
any rights or have any liabilities arising from any action or inaction
of any Participating Fund under this Agreement with respect to such
repurchase transaction.
25. General Provisions. This Agreement supersedes any other
custodian agreement by and among Seller, the Funds, and Repo Custodian
concerning repurchase transactions effected through the Joint Trading
Account. It is understood and agreed that time is of the essence with
respect to the performance of each party's respective obligations
hereunder.
26. Disclosure Relating to Certain Federal Protections
The parties acknowledge that they have been advised that:
(a) In the case of transactions in which one of the parties is a
broker or dealer registered with the SEC under Section 15 of the
Exchange Act, the Securities Investor Protection Corporation has taken
the position that the provisions of the Securities Investor Protection
Act of 1970 (the "SIPA") do not protect the other party with respect
to any transaction hereunder; and
(b) In the case of transactions in which one of the parties is a
government securities broker or a government securities dealer
registered with the SEC under Section 15C of the Exchange Act, SIPA
will not provide protection to the other party with respect to any
transaction hereunder.
[REMAINDER OF PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK]
