SECTION 0. GENERAL

0.1 Capitalized Terms. Capitalized terms not defined in this Appendix B shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Main Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in this Appendix B shall have that meaning solely in this Appendix B and not in any other part of the Agreement unless expressly stated otherwise in a specific instance. References to Section numbers in this Appendix B shall mean Sections of this Appendix B unless expressly stated otherwise in a specific instance.

0.2 Purpose. BNYM utilizes some components of the BNYM System to perform the Core Services. But BNYM does not utilize all components of the BNYM System to provide the Core Services. Some components of the BNYM System are maintained by BNYM and offered to customers solely to permit customers to access the data and information maintained in the BNYM System in connection with the Core Services and put it to additional uses. Consequently, Company is given rights pursuant to this Appendix B (i) to access and use components of the BNYM System, from the Company System (as defined in Section 2.7), to engage in activities that are separate and distinct and apart from the activities engaged in by BNYM to provide the Core Services, and (ii) to authorize third parties, the “Permitted Users”, to access and use certain Component Systems to engage in activities that are also separate and distinct and apart from the activities engaged in by BNYM to provide the Core Services.

(a) (i) BNYM hereby grants to Company a limited, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to access and use the Licensed System in the United States through the Company Employees (other than as expressly permitted otherwise by Section 2.1(a)(ii) below), solely in accordance with applicable Documentation, through the interfaces and telecommunication lines designated by BNYM, strictly for the internal business purposes of the Company, solely in support of the Core Services and solely for so long as any applicable fees are paid by Company.

(ii) The license granted by Section 2.1(a)(i) includes, where such access and use is expressly contemplated by the Documentation applicable to a particular Component System to which the Company has been given access and use, the right to authorize persons not employees of the Company to access and use in the United States the specified Component System strictly in compliance with applicable Documentation, through the interfaces and telecommunication lines designated by BNYM, solely in support of the Core Services and solely for so long as any applicable fees are paid by Company. Except with respect to Fund shareholders seeking to access IAM, to exercise the right contained in this Section 2.1(a)(ii) the Company must designate such persons to BNYM and approve them in a writing that conforms to the requirements of applicable Documentation and procedures of BNYM and furnish any information reasonably requested by BNYM.

The Company shall be responsible and liable for compliance by Permitted Users with all applicable terms of the Agreement as if the Permitted Users were its own employees.

Page 6

(iii) Company may not, and shall not, under any circumstances grant sublicenses to any right granted by this Section 2.1 or subcontract or delegate any right granted by this Section 2.1 or use the Licensed System to provide services to third parties, other than shareholders of its Funds, or for any other purpose other than that described in Sections 2.1(a)(i) and (ii).

(b) The grant of rights in this Section 2.1 shall be construed narrowly. No grant of license is made hereunder to Company or any other party, except the license to Company expressly provided in this Section 2.1. The rights granted by this Section 2.1 shall immediately terminate without further action required on anyone’s part, including without prior notification, upon the termination or expiration of the Agreement. BNYM and its licensors reserve all rights in the BNYM System not expressly granted to Company in this Section 2.1. Nothing in this Section 2.1 shall be construed to give Company rights of any nature in source code. The rights granted to Company by this Section 2.1 are sometimes referred to herein as the “Licensed Rights”.

Company may be given access to and use of a Listed System which contains integration points or links to one or more Support Functions that are part of a Listed System to which the Company has not been given access and use (“Linked Functions”).

To the extent exercise of Licensed Rights hereunder inadvertently or otherwise results in access to or use of a Component System or other system, subsystem, software, program, application, interface, process, subprogram, series of commands or function which is not part of the its Licensed System, all terms of this Agreement shall apply to such access and use.

2.2 Documentation. Company shall use the Licensed System solely and strictly in accordance and compliance with the Documentation provided or made available to Company by BNYM from time to time and any specifications contained therein. Company may use only the number of copies of the Documentation that are provided to Company and may not make any additional copies of such Documentation, except that Company may copy the Documentation to the extent reasonably necessary for routine backup and disaster recovery purposes and upon request of an applicable regulatory authority. Company shall pay BNYM such fees as it has established for copies of the Documentation, if any, as listed in the Fee Agreement.

2.3 Third Party Software and Services. Company acknowledges that Third Party Products may constitute part of the Licensed System. Company’s use of Third Party Products shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided, however, access, use, maintenance and support of Third Party Products made available to Company after an applicable License Effective Date may be conditioned upon Company’s execution of an agreement with the applicable Third Party Provider (“Third Party Agreement”) which would provide for certain rights and obligations between the Company and the Third Party Provider (“Direct Third Party Product”), in which case the terms of the Third Party Agreement will also apply to Company’s use of the particular Third Party Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentences of this Section 2.3, Company acknowledges that BNYM is not responsible for, nor does BNYM warrant the performance or other features of, nor can it fix errors or defects in, third party software and services and BNYM’s sole obligation with respect to third party software and services is to inform the third party of any errors, defects, deficiencies or other matters regarding the third party software and services of which BNYM is made aware by Company and to request and pursue in a commercially reasonable manner remediation of the errors, defects or deficiencies by the third party to the extent BNYM reasonably determines remediation to be available pursuant to the terms of BNYM’s agreement with the third party.

2.4 Compliance With Applicable Law.
