DATA ACCESS SERVICES AGREEMENT
Reference is made to that certain Custodian Contract, dated as of March 7, 2008 (the “Agreement”) between each fund or series of a fund listed on Appendix A which evidences its agreement to be bound hereby by executing a copy of this Agreement (each such fund is individually hereinafter referred to as, the “Customer”) and STATE STREET BANK AND TRUST COMPANY, including its subsidiaries and affiliates (“State Street”). This Data Access Services Agreement (“DAS Agreement”) is entered into by the Customer and State Street to be effective as of the dates on Appendix A.
PREAMBLE
State Street has developed and utilizes, and permits its affiliates to utilize, proprietary accounting and other systems in connection with the provision of custody and other services by it or by its affiliates, and maintains (or its affiliates maintain) certain Customer related data (“Customer Data”) in databases under its control and ownership (the “System”) and State Street makes available certain tools that allow the Customer to obtain access to data in the System remotely for reporting and analysis and to perform certain reporting and analysis functions therewith (the “Data Access Services”). The term “System” shall include additional and successor systems through which State Street may from time to time provide Data Access Services to its customers.
State Street makes available to the Customer certain Data Access Services solely for the benefit of the Customer, and intends to provide additional services, consistent with the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
1. SYSTEM AND DATA ACCESS SERVICES
a. System. Subject to the terms and conditions of this DAS Agreement, State Street hereby agrees to provide the Customer and its designated investment advisors, consultants and third parties authorized by State Street (“Authorized Designees”) with access to the System, on a remote basis solely on computer hardware, system software and telecommunication links of the Customer or the Authorized Designees and solely with respect to the Customer Data (the “Designated Configuration”).
b. Data Access Services. State Street agrees to make available to the Customer and its Authorized Designees the Data Access Services subject to the terms and conditions of this DAS Agreement.
2. NO USE OF THIRD PARTY SYSTEMS-LEVEL SOFTWARE
State Street and the Customer acknowledge that in connection with the Data Access Services provided under this DAS Agreement, the Customer and its Authorized Designees will have access, through the Data Access Services, to Customer Data and to functions of State Street’s proprietary systems; provided, however that in no event will the Customer or its Authorized Designees have direct access to any third party systems-level software that retrieves data for, stores data from, or otherwise supports the System.
3. LIMITATION ON SCOPE OF USE
a. Designated Equipment; Designated Locations. The System and the Data Access Services shall be used and accessed solely on and through the Designated Configuration at the offices of the Customer and/or its Authorized Designees (as specified in Annex A) (hereinafter referred to as the “Designated Locations”).
b. Designated Configuration; Trained Personnel. State Street and the Customer agree that each will engage or retain the services of trained personnel and, with respect to the Customer, will cause its Authorized Designees to retain the services of trained personnel, to enable the parties to perform their respective obligations under this DAS Agreement. State Street agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the System so that it remains serviceable for Customer’s use as contemplated herein, provided, however, that State Street does not guarantee or assure uninterrupted remote access use of the System.
c. Scope of Use. The Customer and its Authorized Designees will use the System and the Data Access Services only for accessing books of account for the Customer and retrieving data for purposes of reporting and analysis. The Customer, its employees and agents shall not, and the Customer shall cause its Authorized Designees not to, (i) permit any third party to use the System or the Data Access Services, (ii) sell, rent, license or otherwise use the System or the Data Access Services in the operation of a service bureau or for any purpose other than as expressly authorized under this DAS Agreement, (iii) use the System or the Data Access Services for any fund, trust or other investment vehicle other than the Customer, (iv) allow access to the System or the Data Access Services through terminals or any other computer or telecommunications facilities located outside the Designated Locations, (v) allow or cause any information (other than portfolio holdings, valuations of portfolio holdings, and other information reasonably necessary for the management or distribution of the assets of the Customer) transmitted from State Street’s databases, including data from third party sources, available through use of the System or the Data Access Services to be redistributed or retransmitted to another computer, terminal or other device other than use for or on behalf of the Customer or (vi) modify the System in any way.
d. Other Locations. In the event of an emergency or System shutdown, the Customer may use any back-up site included in the Designated Locations or any other back-up site, upon State Street’s prior written approval, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Such back-up access by the Customer to the System or the Data Access Services shall be accessed through computer and telecommunications facilities or devices complying with the Designated Configuration.
e. Title. Title and all ownership and proprietary rights to the System, including any enhancements or modifications thereto, whether or not made by State Street, are and shall remain with State Street.
2
f. No Modification. Without the prior written consent of State Street, the Customer and its Authorized Designees shall not modify, enhance or otherwise create derivative works based upon the System, nor shall the Customer or its Authorized Designees reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to secure the source code for all or any part of the System.
g. Security Procedures. The Customer and its Authorized Designees shall comply with data access operating standards and procedures and with user identification or other password control requirements and other security procedures as may be reasonably issued from time to time by State Street for use of the System on a remote basis and to access the Data Access Services. The Customer and its Authorized Designees shall have access only to the Customer Data and authorized transactions as permitted by Section 3(c) herein. Upon notice from State Street, the Customer and its Authorized Designees shall discontinue remote use of the System and access to Data Access Services for any security reasons cited by State Street; provided that in such event State Street shall continue to provide accounting and custody services under the terms of the Agreement. State Street shall use commercially reasonable efforts to restore Customer’s remote access to and use of the System as quickly as possible.
h. Inspections. On an annual basis, or more frequently if upon Customer’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, State Street shall have the right to inspect the use of the System and the Data Access Services by the Customer and its Authorized Designees to ensure compliance with this DAS Agreement. The on-site inspections shall be upon prior written notice to the Customer and the Authorized Designees and at reasonably convenient times and frequencies so as not to result in an unreasonable disruption of the Customer’s or the Authorized Designee’s business. Such inspections shall be conducted only by State Street employees bound by an obligation to maintain the confidentiality of the Customer Data and other Customer information in the manner set forth in Section 4 of this DAS Agreement.
4. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION
a. State Street Confidential Information. The Customer acknowledges, based upon State Street’s representations that the System and the databases, computer programs, screen formats, report formats, interactive design techniques, documentation and other information made available to the Customer and its Authorized Designees by State Street as part of the Data Access Services and through the use of the System constitute copyrighted, trade secret, or other proprietary information of substantial value to State Street. Any and all such information provided by State Street to the Customer and its Authorized Designees shall be deemed proprietary and confidential information of State Street (hereinafter “State Street Confidential Information”). The Customer agrees that it will hold, and shall cause its Authorized Designees to hold, such State Street Confidential Information in strictest confidence and secure and protect it in a manner which shall be measured by the manner consistent with its own procedures for the protection of its own confidential information of a similar nature and to take appropriate action by instruction or agreement with its employees who are permitted access to the State Street Confidential Information to satisfy its obligations hereunder. The Customer shall, and shall cause its Authorized Designees to, use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist State Street in identifying and preventing any unauthorized use, copying or disclosure of the Proprietary Information or any portions thereof or any of the logic, formats or designs contained therein.
3
b. Customer Confidential Information. As used herein, “Customer Confidential Information” shall include the Customer Data and all information of the Customer to which State Street has had access in connection with the performance of this DAS Agreement and the Agreement whether in oral, written, graphic or machine-readable form, including without limitation, specifications, user operations or systems manuals, diagrams, graphs, models, sketches, technical data, research, business or financial information, plans, strategies, forecasts, forecast assumptions, business practices, marketing information and material, customer names, proprietary ideas, concepts, know-how, methodologies and all other information related to the Customer’s business. Customer Confidential Information shall also include confidential information received by the Customer from a third party. State Street agrees that it will hold such Customer Confidential Information in strictest confidence and secure and protect it in a manner consistent with its own procedures for the protection of its own confidential information and to take appropriate action by instruction or agreement with its employees who are permitted access to the Customer Confidential Information to satisfy its obligations hereunder. State Street shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to assist the Customer in identifying and preventing any unauthorized use, copying or disclosure of the Proprietary Information or any portions thereof or any of the logic, formats or designs contained therein.
c. Proprietary Information. The Customer Confidential Information and State Street Confidential Information shall hereinafter be referred to as “Proprietary Information”. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this DAS Agreement, Proprietary Information shall not include information which: (i) is in the public domain at the time of disclosure; (ii) was in the possession of or demonstrably known by the recipient prior to its receipt from the disclosing party; (iii) is independently developed by recipient without use of the Proprietary Information; or (iv) becomes known to recipient from a source other than disclosing party without breach of this DAS Agreement.
If the receiving party is requested or required to disclose Proprietary Information pursuant to a subpoena, court order or other similar process (“Court Order”), it is agreed that the receiving party shall provide the disclosing party with notice of such request(s) so that the disclosing party may seek an appropriate protective order. In the event that the disclosing party is, in the opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose the Confidential Information under pain of liability for contempt of court or other censure or penalty, the receiving party may disclose such information in accordance with and for the limited purpose of compliance with the Court Order, without liability hereunder.
d. Cooperation. Without limitation of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto shall advise the other immediately upon learning or having reason to believe that any person with access to the Proprietary Information (including, without limitation, any Authorized Designees), or any portion thereof, has violated or intends to violate the terms of this DAS Agreement, and each of the parties hereto will, at its expense, reasonably cooperate with the other in seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in the name of the Customer or State Street against any such person.
e. Injunctive Relief. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the disclosure of any Proprietary Information, or of any information which at law or equity ought to remain confidential, may immediately give rise to continuing irreparable injury to the other
4
inadequately compensable in damages at law. In addition, each of the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek immediate injunctive relief against the breach or threatened breach of any of the foregoing undertakings, in addition to any other legal remedies which may be available.
f. Survival. The provisions of this Section 4 shall survive the termination of the Agreement and this DAS Agreement.
5. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY
a. Limitation on Amount and Time for Bringing Action. The Customer agrees that any liability of State Street to the Customer or its Authorized Designees arising out of State Street’s provision of Data Access Services or the System under this DAS Agreement shall be limited to the maximum amount of three million dollars in total for any losses, damages and costs for the term of this DAS Agreement, for the particular system product services that give rise to such losses, damages and costs, regardless of frequency of incidents which may result in such losses, damages and costs. State Street agrees that any liability of the Customer to State Street or any third party arising out of the Customer’s access to and use of Data Access Services or the System under this DAS Agreement shall be limited to the maximum amount of three million dollars in total for any losses, damages and costs for the term of this DAS Agreement for the particular system product services that give rise to such losses, damages and costs, regardless of frequency of incidents which may result in such losses, damages and costs. No action, regardless of form, arising out of this DAS Agreement may be brought by either party more than two years after such party has knowledge that the cause of action has arisen, provided however, that the limitations set forth in this Section 5(a) shall not apply to any amounts for which either party is or becomes liable under Section 4 or Section 8 of this DAS Agreement, or due to personal injury or property damage arising out of either party’s performance of its obligations hereunder.
b. NO OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE MADE BY STATE STREET.
c. Third-Party Data. Organizations from which State Street may obtain certain data included in the System or the Data Access Services are solely responsible for the contents of such data, and State Street shall have no liability for claims under this DAS Agreement arising out of the contents of such third-party data, including, but not limited to, the accuracy thereof.
d. Regulatory Requirements. As between State Street and the Customer, the Customer shall be solely responsible for the accuracy of any accounting statements or reports produced by the Customer or its Authorized Designees using the Data Access Services and the System and the conformity thereof with any requirements of law.
e. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable under this DAS Agreement for any costs or damages due to delay or nonperformance under this DAS Agreement arising out of any cause or event beyond such party’s control, including without limitation, cessation of services hereunder or any damages resulting therefrom to the other party, or the Customer as a result of work stoppage, power or other mechanical failure, computer virus, natural disaster, governmental action, or communication disruption.
5
6. SYSTEM INTEGRITY
State Street represents, warrants and covenants that: (a) immediately prior to delivery of any component of the Data Access Services (a “Deliverable”), it shall use the then current version of one of the leading commercially available virus detection software programs, to test the Deliverable to ensure that the Deliverable does not contain any computer code designed to disrupt, disable, harm, or otherwise impede, including esthetical disruptions or distortions, the operation of the Data Access Services, or any of Customer’s other associated software, firmware, hardware, computer system or network (sometimes referred to as “viruses” or “worms”), (b) the Deliverables shall not contain any computer code that would disable the Data Access Services or impair in any way its operation based on the elapsing of a period of time, advancement to a particular date or other numeral (sometimes referred to as “time bombs”, “time locks”, or “drop dead” devices), and (c) the Deliverables shall not contain any computer code that would permit the unauthorized access to the Data Access Services or Customer’s computer systems (sometimes referred to as “traps”, “access codes” or “Trap door” devices) or any other harmful, malicious or hidden procedures, routines or mechanisms that which would cause the Data Access Services to cease functioning or to damage or corrupt data, storage media, programs, equipment or communications, or otherwise interfere with operations.
7. TITLE
State Street represents and warrants that it has title to its proprietary systems being accessed hereunder. As such title holder, State Street has the right to grant the Customer access to State Street’s proprietary systems pursuant to this DAS Agreement.
8. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION
a. State Street agrees to defend and/or handle at its own expense, any claim or action against the Customer for actual or alleged infringement of any intellectual or industrial property right, including without limitation, trademarks, service marks, patents, copyrights, misappropriation of trade secrets or any similar property rights, based upon the System, any portion thereof and/or Customer’s use thereof. State Street further agrees to indemnify and hold Customer harmless from and against any and all liabilities, costs, losses, damages and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) associated with such claim or action. Customer shall promptly notify State Street of any such claim or action. Customer shall reasonably cooperate with State Street in the defense of such claim or action at State Street’s expense.
b. State Street shall have the sole right to conduct the defense of any such claim or action and all negotiations for its settlement or compromise. In the event that State Street receives a complaint naming the Customer as defendant or codefendant, State Street shall notify the Customer promptly. State Street shall be further obligated to notify the Customer five (5) days prior to the date the first appearance or answer is due under such complaint in the event that State Street has not appointed counsel. Upon such notice, the Customer may elect to appoint its own representation for purposes of entering the Customer’s appearance or answer, as applicable, in response to such complaint at State Street’s expense.
6
c. If the System becomes or in State Street’s reasonable opinion is likely to become the subject of any such claim or action, then, State Street shall either: (i) procure for Customer the right to continue using the System as contemplated hereunder; (ii) modify the System to render the same non-infringing (provided such modification does not adversely affect Customer’s use as reasonably determined by State Street) or (iii) replace same with equally suitable, functionally equivalent, compatible non-infringing system. If none of the foregoing is possible and if such System is found to infringe, State Street shall have the right to terminate this DAS Agreement.
