JOINT ACCOUNT¶

If this is a Joint Account with Rights of Survivorship, you understand that (1) you will share ownership of the Property while you are alive, (2) either of you, acting alone, may withdraw some or all of the Property from the Account, 3) either of you may give us instructions which we will follow without obtaining the consent of or notifying the other owner, and 4) we may terminate the Account upon the request of just one Account owner. If this is a Joint Account held as Tenants in Common and if one party wants to withdraw more than one-half the value in the Account, we may require the consent of the other Account holder. We may be required to release Property to satisfy a judgment against or the debt of any one owner of the Account.¶

OUR SERVICES¶

As Custodian, the Bank will keep and protect, in the same manner as the Bank keeps and protects its own similar property, the securities, cash or other financial assets you deposit in your Account(s) and any dividends, interest or other distributions received on those assets or from their sale or other disposition (collectively, the “Property”).¶

Upon instructions from you or your Advisor, the Bank will buy or sell, for your Account and at your sole risk, securities or other financial instruments and any foreign currency needed to complete these transactions. The Bank may charge transaction costs, including commissions, to your Account unless you or your Advisor gives the Bank different instructions. The Bank may effect orders to buy or sell securities, other financial instruments or foreign currency for your Account in any commercially reasonable manner the Bank deems appropriate. The Bank may select, in the Bank’s sole discretion, the brokers, dealers, counterparties or other intermediaries the Bank uses, including itself or its affiliates. When the Bank buys or sells foreign currency for your Account, the Bank or an affiliate may act as principal or counterparty on the other side of the transaction from you. You agree that the Bank or its affiliates are entitled to charge you the fees or other compensation the Bank customarily receives when the Bank engages in similar transactions with third parties. The Bank may receive remuneration from outside parties. Upon your written request the Bank will provide you with information regarding the source and amount of any remuneration.¶

The Bank may decline to execute or settle a purchase order if the Bank is not satisfied, in the Bank’s sole judgment, that you will have sufficient available funds or credit in your Account and in the required currency to pay for the transaction when payment is due. You agree to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless for any losses, costs or expenses the Bank incurs if you fail to furnish immediately available funds when required to pay for your transactions and expenses.¶

If you ask the Bank to list assets on your Account statements that you hold at another location, the Bank will not be responsible for (i) protecting those assets as custodian, or (ii) confirming that the assets exist or determining their fair market value. The Bank may indicate on your Account statements that these assets are held elsewhere and that the Bank cannot verify their existence or value.¶

The Bank’s affiliates include the Bank’s parent company, Deutsche Bank AG (“Deutsche Bank”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (DBSI), Deutsche Bank Trust Company N.A. (DBTCNA), Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (DBNTC) and other subsidiaries of Deutsche Bank. Most of the Bank’s affiliates are: i) not banks, ii) separately incorporated, and (iii) solely responsible for their own obligations. The Bank does not guarantee their obligations nor does any other bank.¶

SCOPE OF OUR RESPONSIBILITIES¶

The Bank’s sole responsibility, unless the Bank expressly agrees otherwise, is to receive, keep and protect the Property as custodian, to maintain financial assets [within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (NY UCC)] in the Account as security entitlements in your favor, and to provide the execution services, as described in this Agreement.¶

You will make your own investment decisions for the Account, based on information you obtain on your own or the advice of your Advisor or other professional advisors and experts you select. The Bank is not responsible for advising you about securities or other investments and you will not rely on any advice or information you receive from the Bank in making your investment decisions. The Bank also is not responsible for determining the suitability of any investment for you or the merits of any investment you make for the Account, regardless of any information the Bank has about you or the investment or its issuer. In addition, the Bank does not provide legal, tax or accounting advice.¶

CASH MANAGEMENT AUTHORIZATION¶

Unless you give the Bank other instructions, the Bank will place your Account’s U.S. dollar cash balances in a Money Market Deposit Account with DBTCA or one of its affiliates. Although the Bank will not be obligated to do so, if you have cash balances in other currencies, the Bank will seek to place those cash balances in an interest bearing account, if permitted by applicable law, in the countries where the balances are held. The Bank will deduct from any interest earned on non-U.S. dollar cash balances commercially reasonable fees to cover the Bank’s administrative, placement and posting expenses. Upon request, the Bank will provide specific information about these fees. Please see “Annex D” for FDIC Disclosure regarding accounts subject to an automated sweep arrangement.¶

COLLECTIONS¶

You authorize the Bank to collect all interest, dividends, proceeds of sales and other monies due and collectible with respect to the Property and direct the Bank to credit the collections to your Account or to remit them to you as instructed. Where adequate financial information is not readily available about securities in your Account or with respect to securities as to which a default has occurred, the Bank will be responsible for safekeeping only and not for keeping track of dividends or coupon payments, redemptions, exchanges, rights offerings or other similar matters affecting the securities. Securities in this category generally include, but are not limited to, those acquired in private placement transactions, securities of foreign private issuers not registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and securities not traded on a U.S. national securities exchange.¶

EFTA00169195¶

In addition, the Bank will not collect or deliver to you any rights, securities or scrip, or any document, or assist you in exercising any rights or taking other actions, if the Bank decides, in its sole discretion, that to do so would be (a) unreasonably burdensome or costly, or (b) contrary to applicable laws or rules.¶

REINVESTMENT INSTRUCTIONS¶

Unless otherwise specified herein or in separate written instructions, all interest, dividends, or other earnings and proceeds received by the Bank in connection with the Property will be credited to one of your cash accounts as instructed in the Cash Management Authorization Form or placed in your Money Market Deposit Account with DBTCA or one of its affiliates.¶

SUBCUSTODIANS¶

You authorize the Bank to keep the Property or any part of it in one or more of the Bank’s branches or in custody accounts the Bank establishes with one or more subcustodians. The Bank may use as subcustodians other financial intermediaries, including the Bank’s affiliates, branches of other U.S. banks, foreign banks, trust companies, brokers, dealers, securities depositories or clearing agencies. You authorize the Bank to deduct from your Account the charges of any subcustodian or subdepository relating to your Property or the Bank may bill you directly for subcustodian or subdepository fees.¶

CORPORATE ACTIONS¶

The Bank is not required to exercise rights or make elections with respect to exchange or conversion of securities (“Corporate Actions”) in the Account. The Bank will submit all Corporate Actions that the Bank receives for your Account to you or your Advisor as previously selected by you herein. The Bank will not provide any investment advice regarding these notifications; nor will the Bank independently make an election for any Corporate Action for your Account. It is the sole responsibility of you or your Advisor to issue specific instructions in a timely manner regarding all Corporate Actions the Bank sends for your Account.¶

PROXIES¶

The Bank is not required to vote proxies, exercise rights or make elections with respect to the Property. When the Bank receives proxies or related mailings with respect to the Property, the Bank’s sole responsibility will be to send it to you by regular first class mail at the address indicated below or your Advisor as previously selected by you herein, at your sole risk and expense. Communications received by a subcustodian will not be considered received by the Bank until actually delivered to the Bank.¶

TELEPHONE, E-MAIL OR FAX INSTRUCTIONS¶

From time to time you may give the Bank instructions with respect to the transfer of all or part of the Property or for the sale or purchase of securities in the Account by telephone, facsimile or e-mail (collectively referred to herein as “Verbal Instructions”). It is understood that the risk of Verbal Instructions being given by person or persons purported to be you is your own. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless DBTCA for any claims, losses, expenses, costs and attorneys’ fees (and their reasonable expenses) resulting from DBTCA’s acting upon misunderstood and/or unauthorized Verbal Instructions. You understand that over certain dollar levels, DBTCA may, but shall not be required to, seek verification of your Verbal Instructions by calling you to confirm such Verbal Instructions. In case of doubt, DBTCA may in its sole discretion refuse to execute your Verbal Instructions or any part thereof, without incurring any liability. The Bank is under no obligation to execute your telephone, facsimile or e-mail instructions to transfer all or part of the Property, or funds or securities to any account(s) other than the Accounts referenced herein without your original written instructions.¶

TRANSACTIONS IN YOUR ACCOUNT¶

You agree, represent and warrant that all transactions in your Account will comply with all laws, regulations and other legal and regulatory requirements that are applicable to you, and that you will not use the Account to engage, directly or indirectly, in any transactions or activities that are improper or unlawful. Without limiting the foregoing, you agree that you will not engage in any sales of securities unless registered (or subject to an exemption from registration) under the Securities Act of 1933, insider trading, market timing, free-riding and withholding, or manipulative or deceptive transactions, acts, practices or courses of conduct, in your Account. If the Bank, in its sole judgment, determines that the Account is being used for any purposes or activities that may be inconsistent with the agreements, representations and warranties made by you in this paragraph, the Bank may, without any liability to you, take one or more of the following actions: (i) decline to execute one or more transactions instructed by you, (ii) temporarily freeze all transactions or funds in your Account, (iii) close your Account, or (iv) refer the transactions or activities in question to relevant regulatory or law enforcement authorities. You agree to indemnify and hold the Bank harmless for any losses, costs or expenses the Bank incurs (i) if you breach any of the agreements, representations and warranties made by you in this paragraph, or (ii) for any actions that the Bank takes hereunder other than losses, costs or expenses resulting from the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.¶

INSTRUCTIONS FROM BROKER-DEALERS¶

You also direct the Bank to act for your Account on instructions or confirmations from broker-dealers engaged by you or your Advisor. In some cases, you will identify the broker-dealer to the Bank in advance or give the Bank evidence that you engaged the broker or dealer. Where you do not do so, the Bank’s receipt (by electronic or other means) of confirmation of a purchase or sale that requires the Bank to pay funds, deliver securities or take other action for your Account will be deemed an “instruction” to the Bank from you if the confirmation properly identifies your Account number, and the Bank will be authorized to make payment from or take delivery for your Account without consulting or receivin¶

WM134649
015629.122413

7¶

EFTA00169196¶

further instructions from you. The Bank will have no obligation to review any transaction made or Property received on the instructions of such broker-dealers or broker-dealers engaged by your Advisor. The person giving the Bank the instructions shall have sole responsibility for ensuring that it does not violate applicable laws, rules or orders that apply to you or your Account. The Bank may from time to time consult with legal counsel and will be fully protected in acting upon the advice of counsel.¶

REGISTRATION¶

The Bank may hold your Property in certificate or book entry form, in your name, the Bank’s name or the name of any affiliate, subcustodian or nominee or with a subcustodian, securities depository or clearing system in an account for the Bank’s customers or the subcustodian’s customers, as permitted by law and, where applicable, subject to the rules of the securities depository or clearing system.¶

SHARES AWAITING REGISTRATION¶

From time to time, you may purchase shares that are not yet electronically registered with a central securities depository as of the date of the purchase (the “Shares”). In such cases, you will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Bank one or more physical certificate(s) for such Shares (the “Certificate(s)”). Upon receipt of such Certificate(s), and once such Certificates are eligible for registration, the Bank will cause the underlying Shares to be deposited with the appropriate central securities depository for electronic registration. You acknowledge that Shares are not registered in the central securities depository until you receive an e-mail confirmation of registration from the Bank. You represent and agree that once Shares have been submitted for registration, you will not sell Shares or direct anyone else (including any third-party broker) to sell Shares (“Sell Orders”) for your Account until you receive this email confirmation.¶

CERTAIN AUTHORIZATIONS¶

You authorize the Bank to execute in your name all endorsements and assignments relating to the Property and all ownership or other certificates the Bank may need to obtain payment of income or principal with respect to the Property. Although the Bank is not required to do so, you authorize the Bank to pay on your behalf from the Property or your other assets that the Bank holds all taxes or similar levies imposed by any government authority. You agree to cooperate with the Bank by providing information, executing documents or otherwise when the Bank asks you to do so in connection with the payment of such taxes or levies.¶

COMMUNICATIONS¶

All communications to you will be sent to the mailing address below your signature at the end of this Agreement.¶

DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION¶

You authorize the Bank to share information about you and your Account(s) with the Bank’s affiliates as set forth in Annex E. You specifically direct the Bank not to disclose your name, address or the amount of securities you beneficially own to any issuer. However, you agree that the Bank may make disclosures that the Bank believes are required by applicable law and regulations, including disclosure of information about you and your Account(s) to any government agency or self-regulatory body on request, without further consent or notice to you.¶

FEES, COSTS AND EXPENSES¶

For the Bank’s services under this Agreement, you will pay the Bank a monthly fee at the rate on the Bank’s fee schedule then in effect or as agreed in a separate writing signed by you and the Bank. The Bank’s fee will be based on the sum of the cash and the market value of the Property as of the end of the prior month. The Bank will also be entitled to receive applicable transaction fees in addition to the monthly fee. Absent readily ascertainable market prices, the Bank will value the Property at its fair value determined by the Bank in the Bank’s sole discretion using methods customarily and consistently followed. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Bank’s fee will be payable monthly in arrears. Fees for less than a full month will be prorated.¶

PAYMENT OF FEE¶

The Bank will deduct its fees, costs and expenses the Bank incurs for you from the cash portion of your Account unless otherwise agreed upon in writing signed by you and the Bank.¶

TERMINATION¶

You or the Bank can end this Agreement on thirty (30) days written notice to the other for any reason. Either you or the Bank can end this Agreement immediately if the other breaches any provision, representation or warranty in this Agreement. All provisions of this Agreement will survive termination except that your obligation to pay the Bank’s fees will be limited to fees accrued through the later of the effective date of termination or the date transfer of the Property to you or the successor custodian you select is completed. On notice of termination, you and the Bank agree to cooperate fully and take all actions necessary to permit an orderly transfer of the Property to you or your successor custodian.¶

LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION¶

You agree that the Bank, the Bank’s parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, agents and the Bank’s nominees (collectively referred to in this section as the “Bank”) will not be responsible for, and you will indemnify and hold the Bank harmless against, any Liabilities (as defined below) resulting from:¶

3. any act or omission by government authorities, including, without limitation, nationalization, expropriation or currency restrictions; acts of war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; strikes or work stoppages; the inability of a local clearing and settlement system to settle transactions for reasons beyond the Bank’s control; or acts of God;

4. any act or omission by any subcustodian, subdepository or broker-dealer or the insolvency, bankruptcy or similar event affecting any subcustodian, subdepository or broker-dealer, except to the extent that the Liability is due to the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in selecting the subcustodian, subdepository or broker-dealer;

5. taxes, fines or government charges other than those resulting from the Bank’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of an express undertaking in this Agreement;

6. any act, omission, lack of authority or incapacity of any broker-dealer, or any Advisor;

8. any causes other than the Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach of an express undertaking in this Agreement.

In no event shall the Bank be liable for consequential, special or punitive damages.¶

In the event of any dispute or conflicting claims by any person or persons with respect to the Securities or other Property held in the Account, the Bank shall be entitled to refuse to act until either: (i) such dispute or conflicting claim shall have been finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or settled by agreement between conflicting parties, and the Bank shall have received written evidence satisfactory to it of such determination or agreement or (ii) the Bank shall have received an indemnity, security or both, satisfactory to it and sufficient to hold it harmless from and against any and all Liabilities that the Bank may incur as a result of taking such action.¶

As used in this provision, “Liabilities” means all taxes, charges, claims, fees, damages, actions, losses and liabilities, including, without limitation, all fees and disbursements of counsel, court costs and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with any dispute, controversy or proceeding whether you or your successors, receivers, administrators or assignees are parties to the matter.¶

You authorize the Bank to charge your Account for all items for which you must indemnify the Bank. Any Property, together with property in any other account you have with the Bank, shall be security for your obligations to the Bank under this Agreement and for any loans, overdrafts or other credit extended to you. You pledge all such property to the Bank and grant the Bank a continuing lien to secure your obligations under this Agreement, which will include any obligation incurred by the Bank to any subcustodian or subdepository employed for the Account. Your pledge and the Bank’s security interest shall remain in effect until the Bank receives full payment for all of your obligations. You agree to promptly take such actions as the Bank reasonably requests from time to time to perfect or maintain your pledge and the Bank’s lien and security interest as a valid, perfected, first priority interest in the Property. You will not permit your Account(s) or the Property to be subject to any other pledge or security interest without the Bank’s prior written consent.¶

SPECIAL PURCHASES FOR THE ACCOUNT¶

If you direct the Bank to buy shares or other interests in mutual funds or other pooled investment vehicles sponsored, managed or advised by the Bank or any affiliate, your purchase order will be acknowledgement that you have received the prospectus or offering materials for each such fund or vehicle. You agree that the Bank or its affiliates are entitled to the compensation described in the prospectus or offering circular for services the Bank provides to the fund or other vehicle in addition to the fees you pay the Bank for services under this Agreement. You will pay all amounts payable by you under this Agreement in New York in U.S. dollars (or such other currency as the Bank requires, in the case of Property denominated or traded in another currency) without any deductions, withholdings, set-offs or counterclaims, and free and clear of all taxes or withholding. If the Bank is required by law to withhold any tax or other amount, you will pay the Bank the additional amounts required to be withheld.¶

MISCELLANEOUS¶

You represent, warrant and agree that (a) this Agreement and your obligations under it, and (b) your purchase, ownership or sale of all securities and other Property, do and will at all times constitute, your legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable according to their terms, and you agree to perform all your obligations in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and administrative guidance.¶

You agree to let the Bank know promptly in writing if at any time you could not make this representation and warranty or perform your obligations under this Agreement.¶

You agree that any action the Bank, its nominees or subcustodians take before termination of this Agreement and final distribution of the Property in your Account or on instructions from any broker-dealer or advisor that you have designated as having authority to give the Bank instructions and before the Bank receives written notice that you have terminated the authority of that broker or advisor, shall be binding on you and your successors.¶

You hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of the Federal district courts sitting in New York City with respect to any action, claim or proceeding arising out of or pertaining to this Agreement or the matters or transactions referred to herein or contemplated hereby (any such action, claim or proceeding being a “Related Proceeding”). Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives any defense (against the jurisdiction of any of such courts in any Related Proceeding) based on venue or on the ground that such court constitutes an inconvenient forum.

If any provision of this Agreement at any time is unenforceable under the law or regulations of any relevant jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed rescinded or modified to the extent required in such jurisdiction, without affecting the applicability and enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement (and without affecting such provision or its enforceability in any other jurisdiction). The Bank’s failure to insist at any time upon your strict compliance with this Agreement, or any continued course of such conduct on your part, shall not constitute a waiver of any of the Bank’s rights or remedies hereunder. No ambiguity in this Agreement shall be construed against the Bank by reason of the Bank’s (or the Bank’s counsel’s) drafting this Agreement.¶

ASSIGNMENTS¶

CUSTOMER IDENTIFICATION NOTICE¶

To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who establishes an account, investment or other business relationship with a financial institution. This means that we will ask for your name, address, and other information that will allow us to identify you. We may also ask to see identifying documents such as a certificate of formation or good standing (legal entities) or a passport or other photo identification (individuals).¶

This Agreement may not be assigned by either you or the Bank without the consent of the other, except that the Bank may assign this agreement, in whole or in part, to an affiliate, subsidiary or successor by merger. The Bank will notify you of any assignment at your address set forth below, and the Bank’s affiliate, subsidiary or successor will succeed to all of the powers, responsibilities, rights and protections granted to the Bank by this Agreement.¶

CONFIRMATION OF TAX AND COMPLIANCE RESPONSIBILITIES¶

You confirm that it is your responsibility to fulfill all tax obligations and any other regulatory reporting duties applicable to you in any relevant jurisdictions that may arise in connection with assets, income or transactions in the Account and your business relationship with the Bank. Furthermore, you confirm that the necessary information (to the best of your knowledge and capabilities) is made available no less than annually to the relevant beneficial owner(s), settlor(s), beneficiary(ies), partner(s), etc. to enable him/her/them to fulfill any respective tax obligations that may arise for him/her/them in connection with your business relationship with the Bank.¶

3RD EU NOTICE¶

Governmental rules have also broadened the scope of our firm’s obligations to aid in the fight against money laundering and terrorist financing; these rules call for an active involvement of both asset management firms and their clients. For new and existing clients we currently have a legal obligation to ask our customers questions regarding their identities, addresses, source of funds and, if necessary, legal representatives, authorized signatories, beneficial owners or control structures and to collect requisite documentation to substantiate the information. Also, enhanced anti-money laundering requirements require that should any of the above personal or institutional information change, our clients would be obliged to immediately notify us of the change(s) and provide us with relevant documentation to verify these changes.¶
