ADMINISTRATION AND FUND ACCOUNTING SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Administration and Fund Accounting Services Agreement (“Agreement”) dated and effective as of December 31, 2018, is by and between State Street Bank and Trust Company, a Massachusetts trust company (the “Administrator”), and each management investment company identified on Schedule A hereto, together with each management investment company which becomes a party to this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”).

WHEREAS, each Fund is, unless otherwise noted, an open-end or closed-end, management investment company, and may be currently comprised of different series (each, a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios”), and is registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) by means of a registration statement (“Registration Statement”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and in most instances, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”); and

WHEREAS, each Fund desires to retain the Administrator to furnish certain administrative services to the Funds, and the Administrator is willing to furnish such services, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Upon written acceptance by the Administrator, such Portfolio(s) shall become subject to the provisions of this Agreement to the same extent as the existing Portfolios, except to the extent that such provisions (including those relating to compensation and expenses payable) may be modified with respect to such Portfolio in writing by the Fund and the Administrator at the time of the addition of such Portfolio.

c.

Copies of the resolutions of the Board of Directors/Trustees of each Fund (the “Board”) certified by such Fund’s Secretary authorizing (1) the Fund to enter into this Agreement and (2) certain individuals on behalf of the Fund to (a) give instructions to the Administrator pursuant to this Agreement and (b) sign checks and pay expenses;

The Administrator shall perform such other services for the Funds that are mutually agreed to in writing by the parties from time to time, for which the Funds will pay such fees as may be mutually agreed upon in writing, including the Administrator’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses. The provision of such services shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless otherwise modified in writing.

The Administrator shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and expenses, as agreed upon from time to time in writing between the Funds on behalf of each applicable Portfolio and the Administrator.

The Funds agree to promptly reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, the Administrator for any equipment and supplies specially ordered by or for the Funds through the Administrator and for any other reasonable expenses not contemplated by this Agreement that the Administrator may incur on the Funds’ behalf at the Funds’ request or with the Funds’ consent.

Each Fund will bear all expenses that are incurred in its operation and not specifically assumed by the Administrator. For the avoidance of doubt, Fund expenses not assumed by the Administrator include, but are not limited to: organizational expenses; cost of services of independent accountants and outside legal and tax counsel (including such counsel’s review of the Registration Statement, Form N-CSR, Form N-Q or Form N-PORT (as applicable), Form N-PX, Form N-MFP, Form N-SAR or Form N-CEN (as applicable), proxy materials, federal and state tax qualification as a regulated investment company and other notices, registrations, reports, filings and materials prepared by the Administrator under this Agreement, as applicable); cost of any services contracted for by the Funds directly from parties other than the Administrator; cost of trading operations and brokerage fees, commissions and transfer taxes in connection with the purchase and sale of securities for the Funds; investment advisory fees; taxes, insurance premiums and other fees and expenses applicable to its operation; costs incidental to any meetings of shareholders including, but not limited to, legal and accounting fees, proxy filing fees and the costs of preparation (e.g., typesetting, XBRL-tagging, page changes and all other print vendor and EDGAR charges, collectively referred to herein as “Preparation”), printing, distribution and mailing of any proxy materials; costs incidental to Board meetings, including fees and expenses of Board members; the salary and expenses of any officer, director/trustee or employee of the Funds; costs of Preparation, printing, distribution and mailing, as applicable, of the Funds’ Registration Statements and any amendments and supplements thereto; printing, distribution and mailing of

7.	INSTRUCTIONS AND ADVICE

At any time, the Administrator may apply to any officer of the Funds or his or her designee for instructions or the independent accountants for the Funds, with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Administrator under this Agreement. The Administrator shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon reasonable advice of reputable counsel (who may be counsel for the Funds) on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted in good faith pursuant to such advice; provided, however, that with respect to the reliance of such reasonable advice and performance of any action or omission of any action upon such advice, the Administrator shall be required to conform to the standard of care set forth in Section 8. The Administrator and the applicable Funds shall mutually agree as to which entity will bear the cost of such advice of counsel.

Subject to the standard of care set forth in Section 8, the Administrator shall not be liable, and shall be indemnified by the Funds, for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith in reliance upon any such instructions or advice or upon any paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed by the proper person or persons. The Administrator shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person until receipt of written notice thereof from the Fund(s). The Administrator shall provide written confirmation of receipt of such notice promptly after receipt.

Pursuant to other agreements (the “Other State Street Agreements”) now or at any time in effect between a Fund (or its investment manager or investment advisor, on its behalf) and the Administrator or its affiliates (“Affiliates”) in any capacity other than as the Administrator hereunder (in such other capacities, the “Bank”), the Bank may be in possession of certain information and data relating to a Fund and/or a Portfolio that is necessary to provide the Services, including the Services described in Schedule B6. The Funds hereby acknowledge and agree that this Section 7 of the Agreement serves as its consent and instruction for itself and on behalf of each Fund/Portfolio under and pursuant to such Other State Street Agreements for the Bank to provide or otherwise make available (including via platforms such as my.statestreet.com) to the Administrator, Funds and Portfolios information such as net asset values and information relating to the net assets of the Funds/Portfolios, holdings and liquidity reports, market value and other information and data related to the Funds/Portfolios that is necessary to provide the Services and subject to Section 9 hereof.

8.	STANDARD OF CARE; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

In carrying out the provisions of this Agreement, the Administrator shall act (i) with reasonable care and diligence and in good faith, (ii) without negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, willful omission or bad faith, and at least at the same standard of care as the Administrator provides for itself and its Affiliates with respect to similar services, and (iii) with the level of skill and care which would be expected from a reasonably skilled and experienced professional provider of services similar to the services provided under this Agreement. The Administrator shall have no liability for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss or damage resulting from the performance or nonperformance of its duties hereunder unless and to the extent that the Administrator fails to exercise such standard of care. The Administrator shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties as are set forth in this Agreement and, except as otherwise provided under Section 14, shall have no responsibility for the actions or activities of any other party, including other service providers. The Administrator shall have no liability in respect of any loss, damage or expense suffered by the Funds insofar as such loss, damage or expense arises from the performance of the Administrator’s duties hereunder in reliance upon records that were maintained for the Funds by entities other than the Administrator prior to the Administrator’s appointment as administrator for the Funds. The Administrator shall not be liable for any special, indirect, incidental, punitive or consequential damages, including lost profits, of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) under any provision of this Agreement or for any such damages arising out of any act or failure to act hereunder, each of which is hereby excluded by agreement of the parties regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable or whether either party or any entity had been advised of the possibility of such damages. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by the parties, the Administrator’s cumulative liability for each calendar year (a “Liability Period”) with respect to the Funds under this Agreement regardless of the form of action or legal theory shall be limited to its total annual compensation earned and fees payable hereunder during the preceding Compensation Period, as defined herein, for any liability or loss suffered by the Funds including, but not limited to, any liability relating to qualification of the Funds as a regulated investment company or any liability relating to the Funds’ compliance with any federal or state tax or securities statute, regulation or ruling during such Liability Period. “Compensation Period” shall mean the calendar year ending immediately prior to each Liability Period in which the event(s) giving rise to the Administrator’s liability for that period have occurred.

Neither party shall be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, work stoppage, power or other mechanical failure, computer virus, natural disaster, governmental action or communication disruption.

Each Fund severally and not jointly shall indemnify and hold the Administrator and its directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from all loss, cost, damage and expense, including reasonable fees and expenses for counsel, incurred by the Administrator resulting from any claim, demand, action or suit in connection with the Administrator’s acceptance of this Agreement, any action or omission by it in the performance of its duties hereunder, or as a result of acting upon any instructions reasonably believed by it to have been duly authorized by the Funds or upon reasonable reliance on information or records given or made by the Funds or its

 

9

investment adviser, provided that this indemnification shall not apply to actions or omissions of the Administrator, its agents, delegates, officers or employees in cases of its or their own negligence, fraud, willful misconduct, willful omission or bad faith.

The limitation of liability and indemnification contained herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

9.	CONFIDENTIALITY

All information provided under this Agreement by a party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other party (the “Receiving Party”) regarding the Disclosing Party’s business and operations shall be treated as confidential. Subject to Section 10 below, all confidential information provided under this Agreement by Disclosing Party shall be used, including disclosure to third parties, by the Receiving Party, or its agents, delegates or service providers, solely for the purpose of performing or receiving the services and discharging the Receiving Party’s other obligations under the Agreement or managing the business of the Receiving Party and its affiliates, including financial and operational management and reporting, risk management, legal and regulatory compliance and client service management. The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information (a) that is publicly available when provided or thereafter becomes publicly available, other than through a breach of this Agreement, (b) that is independently derived by the Receiving Party without the use of any information provided by the Disclosing Party in connection with this Agreement, or (c) where the party seeking to disclose has received the prior written consent of the party providing the information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall be permitted to disclose any confidential information provided under this Agreement by the Disclosing Party (i) to comply with any legal or regulatory proceeding, investigation, audit, examination, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process or (ii) as required by operation of law or regulation or as required to comply with the requirements of any market infrastructure that the Disclosing Party or its agents direct the Administrator or its Affiliates to employ (or which is required in connection with the holding or settlement of instruments included in the assets subject to this Agreement), provided that the Receiving Party take reasonable steps to otherwise maintain the confidential nature of such information.

 

10.	USE OF DATA

(a) In connection with the provision of the services and the discharge of its other obligations under this Agreement, the Administrator (which term for purposes of this Section 10 includes each of its Affiliates) may collect and store information regarding the Funds or Portfolios (“Fund Information”) and share such Fund Information with its Affiliates, agents, delegates and service providers in order and to the extent reasonably necessary (i) to carry out the provision of services contemplated under this Agreement and other agreements between the Funds and the Administrator or any of its Affiliates and (ii) to carry out the internal management of its businesses, including, but not limited to, financial and operational management and reporting, risk management, legal and regulatory compliance.

 

10

(b) Except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement, nothing in this Section 10 shall limit the confidentiality and data-protection obligations of the Administrator and its Affiliates under this Agreement and applicable law. The Administrator shall cause any Affiliate, agent, delegate or service provider to which it has disclosed Data pursuant to this Section 10 to comply at all times with confidentiality and data-protection obligations as if it were a party to this Agreement.

 

11.	COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL RULES AND REGULATIONS; RECORDS

Each Fund assumes full responsibility for complying with all securities, tax, commodities and other laws, rules and regulations applicable to it.

In compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Administrator agrees that all records which it maintains for the Funds shall at all times remain the property of the Funds, shall be readily accessible during normal business hours, and shall be promptly surrendered upon the termination of the Agreement or otherwise on written request except as otherwise provided in Section 13. The Administrator further agrees that all records that it maintains for the Funds pursuant to Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act will be preserved for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act unless any such records are earlier surrendered as provided above. Records may be surrendered in either written or machine-readable form, at the option of the Administrator. In the event that the Administrator is requested or authorized by the Funds, or required by subpoena, administrative order, court order or other legal process, applicable law or regulation, or required in connection with any investigation, examination or inspection of the Funds by state or federal regulatory agencies, to produce the records of the Funds or the Administrator’s personnel as witnesses or deponents, the Funds agrees to pay the Administrator for the Administrator’s reasonable time and expenses, as well as the reasonable fees and expenses of the Administrator’s counsel incurred in such production. The Administrator shall, to the extent permitted by law, provide notice to the applicable Fund promptly after receipt of any request for records by an entity other than such Fund. Upon request, the Administrator shall provide the applicable Fund with an update on the fees and expenses incurred in responding to any such requests for records.

 

12.	SERVICES NOT EXCLUSIVE

The services of the Administrator are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Administrator shall be free to render similar services to others. The Administrator shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided herein or authorized by the Funds from time to time, have no authority to act or represent the Funds in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Funds.

 

13.	EFFECTIVE PERIOD AND TERMINATION

 

(a)

Term. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for an initial term ending one (1) year from the effective date (the “Initial Term”).

11

Portfolio upon no less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to the Administrator, or by the Administrator upon no less than 180 days’ prior written notice to the applicable Fund or Portfolio.

 

(b)

Termination. During the Initial Term and thereafter, either party may terminate this Agreement: (i) in the event of the other party’s material breach of a material provision of this Agreement that the other party has either failed to cure or failed to establish a remedial plan to cure that is reasonably acceptable, in each case within 60 days’ written notice of such breach, or (ii) in the event of the appointment of a conservator or receiver for the other party or upon the happening of a like event to the other party at the direction of an appropriate agency or court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(c)

Payments Owing to the Administrator. Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13(a) or 13(b) with respect to the Funds or any Portfolio, the Funds or applicable Portfolio shall pay Administrator its compensation due as of the date of such termination and shall reimburse Administrator for its costs, expenses and disbursements. In the event of: (i) the Funds’ termination of this Agreement with respect to the Funds or their Portfolio(s) in any manner other than as set forth in Section 13(a) and 13(b) or (ii) a transaction not in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which the Administrator is not retained to continue providing services hereunder to the Funds or a Portfolio (or its respective successor), the Fund or applicable Portfolio shall pay the Administrator any compensation due through the end of the then-current term (based upon the average monthly compensation previously earned by the Administrator with respect to the Fund or Portfolio) and shall reimburse the Administrator for its costs, expenses and disbursements. Upon receipt of such payment and reimbursement, the Administrator will deliver the Funds’ or such Portfolio’s records as set forth herein.

 

(d)

Exclusions. For the avoidance of doubt, no full term payment will be required pursuant to clause (ii) of Section 13(c) in the event of any transaction such as (i) the liquidation or dissolution of the Funds or a Portfolio and distribution of the Funds’ or such Portfolio’s assets as a result of the Board’s determination in its reasonable business judgment that the Funds or such Portfolio is no longer viable or that the liquidation is in the best interest of the Funds or such Portfolio, (ii) a merger of the Funds or a Portfolio into, or the consolidation of the Funds or a Portfolio with, another entity, or (iii) the sale by the Funds or a Portfolio of all, or substantially all, of the Funds’ or Portfolio’s assets to another entity, in each of (ii) and (iii) where the applicable Funds provide ninety (90) days’ prior written notice in advance of the closing date of any such transactions.

 

(e)

Effect of Termination. Termination of this Agreement with respect to any one particular Portfolio shall in no way affect the rights and duties under this Agreement with respect to the Funds or any other Portfolio.

 

12

14.	DELEGATION

The Administrator shall retain the right to employ its Affiliates to provide or assist it in the provision of any part of the services stated herein or the discharge of any other obligations or duties under this Agreement without the consent or approval of any Fund. The Administrator may employ other agents, subcontractors, consultants and other third parties (each a “Delegate”) to provide the services stated herein to the Funds upon the prior written consent of the Funds. The Administrator shall be responsible for the acts and omissions of any such Delegate or Affiliate so employed as if the Administrator had committed such acts and omissions itself. The Administrator shall be responsible for the compensation of its Delegates and Affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the term Delegate include consultants, authorized data sources, suppliers of Administrator’s third party technology, providers of market infrastructure, and other non-affiliated entities that provide similar assistance to the Administrator in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, and the Administrator shall have no liability for their acts or omissions except as otherwise expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement.

 

15.	INTERPRETIVE AND ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

In connection with the operation of this Agreement, the Administrator and the Funds on behalf of each of the Portfolios, may from time to time agree on such provisions interpretive of or in addition to the provisions of this Agreement as may in their joint opinion be consistent with the general tenor of this Agreement. Any such interpretive or additional provisions shall be in a writing signed by all parties, provided that no such interpretive or additional provisions shall contravene any applicable laws or regulations or any provision of the Funds’ Governing Documents. No interpretive or additional provisions made as provided in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be an amendment of the Agreement.

Nothing in this Agreement or any other service schedule(s) shall limit or modify State Street’s or its Affiliates’ obligations to the Funds under the Other Fund Agreements.

In connection with the provision of the Services by State Street, each of the Funds acknowledges and agrees that it will be responsible for providing State Street with any information requested by State Street, including, but not limited to, the following:

(A) Arranging for the regular provision of all Services-Related Data and related information to State Street, in formats compatible with State Street-provided data templates including, without limitation, the information and assumptions required by State Street in connection with a Fund reporting profile and onboarding checklist, as it, or the information or assumptions required, may be revised at any time by State Street, in its discretion (collectively, the “Onboarding Checklist”) and such other forms and templates as may be used by State Street for such purposes from time to time, for all Funds receiving services under this Agreement, including but not limited to those to be reported

 

7

on Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN (as determined by the Funds), including, without limitation, arranging for the provision of data from the Funds, its affiliates, third party administrators, prime brokers, custodians, and other relevant parties. If and to the extent that Service-Related Data is already accessible to State Street (or any of its Affiliates) in its capacity as administrator to one or more Funds, State Street and the Funds will agree on the scope of the information to be extracted from State Street or any of its Affiliate’s systems for purposes of State Street’s provision of the Services subject to the discretion of State Street, and State Street is either hereby, or pursuant to a proper instruction or other direction letter provided by the Funds to State Street will thereby be, expressly authorized to use any such information as necessary in connection with providing the Services hereunder; and

(B) Providing all required information and assumptions not otherwise included in Fund data and assumptions provided pursuant to Section 1(A) above, including but not limited to the Services-Related Data, as may be required in order for State Street to provide the Services.

The following are examples of certain types of information that each Fund is likely to be required to provide pursuant to Sections 1(A) and 1(B) above, and each Fund hereby acknowledges and understands that the following categories of information are merely illustrative examples, are by no means an exhaustive list of all such required information, and are subject to change as a result of any amendments to Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN:

The Funds will also be responsible for promptly notifying State Street of any changes in any such material assumptions previously notified to State Street by the Funds or otherwise previously approved by the Funds in connection with State Street provision of the Services. The Funds acknowledges that the completion of Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN and the provision of the Services and the data required thereby, requires the use of material assumptions in connection with many different categories of information and data, and the use and/or reporting thereof, including, but not limited to the following:

 

•

Investment classification of positions;

 

•

Assumptions necessary in converting data extracts;

 

•

General operational and process assumptions used by State Street in performing the Services; and

 

•

Assumptions specific to the Funds.

 

8

Each Fund hereby acknowledges and understands that the foregoing categories of information that may involve the use of material assumptions are merely illustrative examples of certain subject matter areas in relation to which the Funds (and/or State Street on its behalf in connection with the Services) may rely on various material assumptions, and are by no means an exhaustive list of all such subject matter areas. The Funds and State Street shall confirm the material assumptions used in connection with the completion of Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN and the provisions of the Services.

3.    Each Fund acknowledges and agrees on the following matters:

(A) It has independently reviewed the Services (including, without limitation, the assumptions, market data, securities prices, securities valuations, tests and calculations used in the Services), and the Fund has determined that the Services are suitable for its purposes. Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement, none of State Street or its Affiliates, nor their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents or service providers (collectively, including State Street, “State Street Parties”) make any express or implied warranties or representations with respect to the Services.

Where the Fund uses Services to comply with any law, regulation, agreement, or other Fund obligation, State Street makes no representation that any Service complies with such law, regulation, agreement, or other obligation, and State Street has no obligation of compliance with respect thereto.

(C) It may use the (i) Services and (ii) work product (defined below) generated by State Street in connection with the Services (“N-PORT Work Product”), in each case, as follows: (a) for the internal business purpose of the Fund relating to the applicable Service (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any purpose prohibited in the following paragraph) or (b) for submission to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, as required, of a Form N-PORT filing and a Form N-CEN update, including any Portfolio of Investments, if applicable.

The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Funds may independently (and without the use of the Services or the N-PORT Work Product) develop services and products similar to the Services or N-PORT Work Product and may move the Services from State Street pursuant to the terms of the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein shall prohibit the Funds, the Fund Parties or any third party from using the following data and information in the development of such similar services or products: (i) Fund confidential information that constitutes raw data of the Fund provided by or on behalf of the Fund and used by State Street to perform the Services, (ii) the as-filed versions of the Fund’s Form N-PORT, Form N-CEN and Portfolio of Investments filings, including the final responses to each item reported in the as-filed versions of the Fund’s Form N-PORT, Form N-CEN and Portfolio of Investments filings or (iii) any publicly-available equations, processes, methodologies or other

 

10

standards required to be used in the preparation of Form N-PORT, Form N-CEN and Portfolio of Investments filings, such as publicly-available securities, tax and accounting rules, regulations and guidance or other standards otherwise available in the public domain.
