Subject to the limitations, obligations and exclusions set forth in Sections 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4, and save where prohibited by applicable law or regulation, State Street shall have the right to employ agents, subcontractors, consultants and other third parties, whether affiliated or unaffiliated to provide or assist it in the provision of all or any part of the Services (each, a “Delegate” and collectively, the “Delegates”) without the consent or approval of the Funds. State Street shall be responsible for the Services delivered by, and the acts and omissions of, any such Delegate as if State Street had provided such Services and committed such acts and omissions itself. Unless otherwise expressly agreed in writing, State Street shall be responsible for the compensation of its Delegates. 

3.2Delegation of Material Functions to Non-Affiliates. State Street may not, without first obtaining the prior approval of the Funds, engage any Delegate that is not an Affiliate that will perform or provide: (i) a material portion of the Services and such that the non-Affiliate is significantly relied upon by State Street to the extent that interruption or discontinuance of service by such third party could reasonably be expected to cause the provision of the Services to be materially disrupted or degraded; or (ii) a portion of the Services that (1) is Fund-facing or Fund Client-facing, or (2) will include access to, use of, or other processing of Fund Personal Information (excluding Business Contact Information). Any such functions described in subsections (i) and (ii) above shall be referred to as, individually, a “Material Function” or, collectively, “Material Functions,” and any such non- Affiliate Delegate who performs a Material Function shall be referred to as, individually, a “Material Subcontractor” or, collectively, “Material Subcontractors.” 

3.3Delegation of Material Functions to Affiliates. State Street shall not delegate any Material Functions without complying with the requirements of this Section 3.3. 

(a)State Street has provided the Funds with documents (collectively, the “Global Operating Model Due Diligence Package”) that outline as of the date of the Amendment Effective Date its global operating model for the delivery of the Services, which documents include schedules (the “Global Operating Map”) that identify the Delegates affiliated with State Street that perform or may perform Material Functions, the location(s) used by such Delegates and the Material Function(s) that the Delegates perform or may perform at such locations. State Street has further provided the Funds with the opportunity to carry out additional due diligence, including to conduct site visits and to obtain additional information that may be reasonably required for the Funds to comply with its obligations under its applicable Legal Requirements. 

(b)Without limiting State Street’s obligations under Section 3.3(c), State Street will provide Funds with updates to the Global Operating Map on a quarterly basis to reflect any changes to the Delegates specified therein, the locations from which such Delegates perform services and the Material Functions performed at such locations. 

(c)State Street will provide the Funds with sixty (60) days prior written notice of its intention to (i) delegate Material Functions to a new legal entity which is not already an approved Delegate, (ii) the establishment by an approved Delegate of a new service location from which Material Functions will be performed, and (iii) the transfer of Material Functions from one approved Delegate or location to another, when the Delegate does not already perform the Material Functions being transferred or such Material Function is not already performed at such location. 

(d)State Street will provide such other information, from time to time, as the Funds may reasonably request in order to fulfill its regulatory or governance obligations to supervise State Street’s use of Delegates to perform any Material Function. 

(e)If the Fund object to, or raises concerns relating to, the proposed: (i) the delegation of Material Functions to a new legal entity which is not already an approved Delegate; (ii) establishment by an approved Delegate of a new service location from which Material Functions will be performed; or (iii) transfer of Material Functions from one approved Delegate or location to another, as applicable; then the parties will promptly meet to discuss the Fund’s objections and concerns. In such an event, the applicable Fund and State Street agree to work together in good faith and may mutually agree to delay or revise the proposed delegation changes. If the parties are unable to agree upon a solution that is satisfactory to the Fund, and the Fund continues to have objections or concerns about the proposed changes in the delegation model, the Fund may, at its sole option, terminate the affected service or workstream, or the obligations under the Existing Agreement, with respect to that Fund only, for convenience and without penalty, effective immediately (or at such later date mutually agreed by the parties to accommodate any post-termination transition plan or expiration assistance) upon providing written notice to State Street. If not otherwise provided in the Existing Agreement, the parties will mutually agree upon reasonable post-termination assistance so as to allow such Services to continue without interruption or adverse effect, and to facilitate the orderly transfer of such Service to a successor provider or to the Funds (at Fund’s option). In the event that State Street performs any transitional or other post-termination assistance following a termination of the Existing Agreement, then State Street shall charge the applicable Fund(s) such fees as shall be agreed in writing for such services and, notwithstanding the termination of the Existing Agreement, the terms of such Agreement shall continue to apply in relation to any such transitional services or other post-termination assistance. 

3.4Exclusions. 

(a)Notwithstanding the foregoing commitments, the conditions in this Section 3 shall not apply to any delegation or use of a legal entity or location on an emergency or temporary basis in order to allow State Street to continue to provide the Services during any period when State Street or any Delegate is experiencing a service interruption, outage or similar limitation (including a Force Majeure Event). In any such event, State Street shall notify the Funds as soon as reasonably practicable of such temporary delegation or service location and shall take reasonable steps to return such Services to a previously approved Delegate as soon as reasonably possible consistent with maintaining continuity of the Services. 

(b)Nothing in this Section 3 shall limit or restrict State Street’s right to use Affiliates or third parties to perform or discharge, or assist it in the performance or discharge, of any obligations or duties under this Agreement other than the provision of the Services. 

(c)In no event shall the term Delegate include Third Party providers of Market Data or of components of the State Street Technology, Authorized Data Sources, suppliers of the third party State Street Technology or suppliers of industry messaging or matching utilities. 

3.5Subcontractor Agreements. To the extent applicable, State Street shall monitor and oversee Material Subcontractors and State Street’s agreements with its Material Subcontractors, shall, at a minimum, contain such terms required under applicable Legal Requirements, including but not limited to GLBA and any requirements for inclusion of flow-down clauses. 

4.PERSONAL INFORMATION AND DISPOSITION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Section 17 of the Existing Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following: 

4.1Restrictions. A Party receiving Confidential Information (the “Receiving Party”) from the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) shall keep such Confidential Information confidential. The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to its Representatives who have a need to know such Confidential Information to effectively perform the Services or for the Funds to receive the benefit of the Services or as otherwise permitted under Section 4.3. The Receiving Party shall cause such Representatives to comply with this Amendment and shall assume full responsibility for any breach of this Amendment by any such Representatives. The Receiving Party shall not transfer or disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to any Third Party except as necessary to effectively perform the Services or as otherwise expressly permitted hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Funds may disclose to its Third Party Agents information regarding the manner in which the Services are delivered to the extent reasonably necessary to appropriately optimize the efficiency of the coordinated delivery of Services and the services of such Third Party Agents, or for the Funds to receive the benefit of the Services, which information for the avoidance of doubt shall exclude pricing information. Such disclosures shall be made under an obligation of confidentiality no less stringent than that imposed on the Funds under this Amendment, limiting the use of such State Street Confidential Information by such Third Parties to the provision of services to the Funds and its Affiliates. 

4.2Exclusions. Confidential Information shall not include information that: (a) is in the public domain at the time of its disclosure or thereafter becomes public (other than as a result of a breach by the Receiving Party or its Representatives of their obligations under this Section 4); (b) was in the possession of or demonstrably known by the Receiving Party prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party without restriction on its use or disclosure; (c) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of, reference to or reliance on the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (d) becomes known by the Receiving Party from a source other than the Disclosing Party without breach of this Amendment and is not subject to an obligation of confidentiality. 

4.3Additional Permitted Uses. 

(a)Subject to Legal Requirements, State Street may collect, store or use Fund Confidential Information (excluding Personal Information but including Business Contact Information) to the extent reasonably necessary to carry out its own management and control functions, including financial and operational management and reporting, risk management, legal and regulatory compliance, client service management, and business continuity management. In addition and also subject to Legal Requirements, State Street may collect, store or use Fund Personal Information (excluding Business Contact Information, which is covered by the preceding sentence) to the extent reasonably necessary to carry out its business purposes in relation to the provision of services to the Funds, including its own management and control functions, including financial and operational management and reporting, risk management, legal and regulatory compliance, client service management, and business continuity management. In addition, either Party may disclose Confidential Information of the other Party to its attorneys, accountants, auditors and other similar advisors that have a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information in connection with the discharge of their provision of services to such Party in connection with the Services; provided such Confidential Information is disclosed to such professional advisors under obligations of confidentiality which are commensurate with those set forth under this Amendment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, State Street shall not make available, sell, rent, release, disseminate, transfer, communicate, distribute or otherwise disclose any Fund Personal Information to any third party for monetary or other valuable consideration. 

(b)State Street and its Affiliates may use Fund Data, but excluding Personal Information, to develop, publish or otherwise distribute to third parties certain investor behavior “indicators” or “indices” that represent broad trends in the flow of investment funds into various markets, sectors or investment instruments (collectively, the “Indicators”), but only so long as: (i) such Fund Data is anonymized and combined or aggregated with (A) information of other customers of State Street, and (B) information derived from other sources, in each case such that neither the Fund Data nor the Indicators allow for attribution or identification of such Fund Data, any investors, or any Personal Information of investors; (ii) the Fund Data represents less than a statistically meaningful portion of all of the data used to create the Indicators; and (iii) State Street publishes or otherwise distributes to third parties only the Indicators and under no circumstance publishes, makes available, distributes or otherwise discloses any of the Fund Data to any third party, whether aggregated, anonymized or otherwise, except as expressly permitted under this Amendment. State Street does not charge a fee for the Indicators but does seek to realize economic benefit from the publication or distribution of the Indicators (subject at all times to satisfaction of (i) – (iii) in the preceding sentence). 

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, each Receiving Party expressly agrees that it shall not use the Confidential Information as a basis for making any investment recommendations or decisions (a) regarding specific portfolio holdings, or any instruments derived from the value of such holdings, and (b) to purchase or sell the shares of a Fund for the purpose of taking advantage of any real or perceived discrepancy between the value of the portfolio holdings and the stated net asset value of a Fund’s shares. 

4.4Legal Requests. If the Receiving Party is requested or required to disclose any of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information under a Legal Requirement, the Receiving Party shall, to the extent not precluded by a Legal Requirement, provide prompt notice of such Legal Requirement to the Disclosing Party so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Amendment. If the Disclosing Party is not successful in obtaining a protective order or other appropriate remedy and the Receiving Party is, in the reasonable opinion of its counsel, legally compelled to disclose such Confidential Information, or if the Disclosing Party waives compliance with the provisions of this Amendment in writing, the Receiving Party may disclose, without liability hereunder, such Confidential Information in accordance with, but solely to the extent necessary, in the reasonable opinion of its counsel, to comply with the Legal Requirement. Notwithstanding any confidential restrictions set forth herein, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information as required to satisfy any Legal Requirement without restriction on confidentiality; provided that the Receiving Party requests confidential treatment of such Confidential Information by the relevant Regulatory Authority, and in any such event in which State Street discloses any Fund Confidential Information, State Street will to the extent not precluded by a Legal Requirement provide prompt notice of such event to the applicable Fund(s) so that the applicable Fund(s) may permit the disclosure or seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy. 

4.5[Reserved.] 

4.6Exceptions. Without limiting Section 4.1, State Street may also disclose Fund Confidential Information pursuant to any exception permitted by Sections 248.14 and 248.15 of Regulation S-P in the ordinary course of business to carry out the activities covered by the exception under which State Street received such Fund Confidential Information. 

4.7Specific Performance. Each Receiving Party specifically agrees that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Section 4 and the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to specific performance as a remedy for any such breach. Specific performance shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for any breach of this Section 4, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity. 

4.8Disposition of Confidential Information. Upon the termination or expiration of the Existing Agreement, or upon the Disclosing Party’s written request (in each case, where practicable (excluding Fund Data which shall always be returned to the applicable Fund)), the Receiving Party shall return to the Disclosing Party all copies of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information already in the Receiving Party’s possession or within its control. In the case of State Street, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, State Street shall return Fund Confidential Information to the applicable Fund in the form in which such Confidential Information is maintained by State Street in the ordinary course. Alternatively, with the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent, the Receiving Party may destroy such Confidential Information using means to protect against unauthorized access to or use of such Confidential Information, including, where appropriate, burning, shredding, or pulverizing the media containing such Confidential Information, or by taking such other means as to assure that such Confidential Information may not be recoverable following its disposal. An officer of the Receiving Party shall thereafter certify in writing to the Disclosing Party that all such Confidential Information has been so destroyed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may, subject to compliance with applicable Legal Requirements: (a) retain copies of such Confidential Information as required by Legal Requirements, and, to the extent such copies are electronically stored in accordance with the Receiving Party’s retention or back-up policies or procedures (including those regarding electronic communication), so long as such Confidential Information is kept confidential as required under this Agreement; and (b) retain copies of Confidential Information to the extent referenced or incorporated in the Receiving Party’s documents, records, files or materials, so long as such Confidential Information is kept confidential as required under this Amendment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Crisis prevents State Street from providing the Services to the Funds, State Street shall allocate its efforts and resources to restoring Funds Services no less favorably to the Funds than it allocates to any of its other similarly situated customers affected by the Crisis. 

(b)Upon the request of the Fund, State Street shall provide the applicable Fund with a reasonable overview of State Street’s then-current DR/BCP Plan for its review. Upon the reasonable request of the Fund, the parties shall meet to discuss State Street’s then-current DR/BCP Plan.

(c)The costs of an audit pursuant to this Section 6.1 shall be borne by the applicable Funds, except to the extent such audit is conducted to examine an on-going material breach of the Existing Agreement or to verify that such a breach has been cured, in which case State Street shall bear the reasonable cost of such audit. 

(d)Notwithstanding the audit, inspection or other rights conferred by this Section 6.1, State Street reserves the right to impose reasonable limitations on the number, frequency, timing and scope of audits, inspections or questionnaires requested by the Funds so as to prevent or minimize any potential impairment or disruption of its operations, distraction of its personnel or breaches of security or confidentiality provided however that State Street may not limit: (i) the number, frequency and timing of audits required by any Regulatory Authority or to the extent prohibited by such Regulatory Authority; (ii) where there is, acting reasonably and with written justification, suspicion of fraud; or (iii) where there are persistent material breaches in respect of Material Functions. In addition, State Street may impose a commercially reasonable per person hourly charge for the cooperation and assistance of its personnel in connection with more than two (2) audits that do not involve a material breach of obligations under the Existing Agreement in any twelve 

(12) month period; provided, however, that no such charge may be imposed in connection with any audit or inspection by or at the required direction of any Regulatory Authority.

(e)Nothing in this Section 6 or anywhere else in any of the Existing Agreement shall require State Street to disclose or otherwise make available to the Funds, Fund Auditors or any Third Party any information or access: 

(i)to the extent that such information or access is subject to legal privilege and cannot, even after taking reasonable precautions or other steps, be disclosed or otherwise made available without waiving such privilege; 

(ii)to the extent doing so would result in a breach of any duty of confidentiality owed by State Street to any Third Party, or any Legal Requirement; 

(iii)that is unrelated to the Funds or the provision of the Services to the Funds; 

(iv)that is treated as confidential under State Street’s corporate policies, including internal audit reports, compliance or risk management plans or reports, work papers and other reports and information relating to management functions; provided that such confidential treatment is generally and consistently applied to all of State Street’s clients; or 

(v)where such access to any part of the State Street’s or its Delegate’s facilities would or could reasonably compromise the security of its operations or confidentiality of its customers (whereafter, if a party reasonably determines such a compromise may result from such access, the parties will meet, agree, and confirm the scoping of the risk, and work together in good faith to address). 

With respect to any State Street Technology that is within the scope of the audits to be performed in accordance with Section 6.1, any access provided to the Fund Auditors to State Street Technology shall be limited to a demonstration by State Street of the functionality thereof and a reasonable opportunity to communicate with State Street personnel regarding such State Street Technology.

If any such Regulatory Authority requires State Street and its Delegates to comply with non-routine, extraordinary information requests (in the form of data production, preservation or retention orders or other requests of a similar nature) which involve material additional costs to State Street in connection with any investigation or inquiry relating to the Funds or any Client (but unrelated to State Street other than as the keeper of such records), State Street may be entitled to reimbursement of the cost as mutually agreed to between the parties. 

7.INSURANCE. 

7.1Insurance Coverage. State Street shall, at its own cost and expense, obtain and maintain in full force and effect during the term of the Existing Agreement, the insurance coverage in the minimum amounts, with the endorsements and on the terms set forth in Exhibit B as may be amended in writing from time to time by mutual agreement of the parties.

8.LIABILITY 

8.1(a) Except as provided in subsection (b) below, State Street shall not be liable to the Funds for any damages under this Amendment to the extent arising out of or relating to the performance or non-performance by State Street (or its Delegates) of its (or their) duties under this Amendment, unless caused by a breach by State Street (or its Delegates) of the Standard of Care or by State Street’s or its Delegate’s intentional breach, bad faith, gross negligence, fraud or willful or intentional misconduct in the performance or non-performance of State Street’s or its Delegate’s duties hereunder. 

(b) Notwithstanding subsection (a) above, State Street shall be responsible for any breach of the provisions set forth in Exhibit D.

8.2NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PROVISION IN THE EXISTING AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THIS AMENDMENT) TO THE CONTRARY INCLUDING WITHIN SECTION 8.1 HEREIN, NO DISCLAIMER OR LIMITATION OF DAMAGES OR EXCLUSION OF TYPE OF DAMAGES SHALL APPLY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE FRAUD, WILLFUL OR INTENTIONAL DEFAULT, WILLFUL OR INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OF STATE STREET OR ITS DELEGATES OR THE FUNDS. 

9.INDEMNIFICATION. The following will apply in lieu of any State Street indemnification obligations and related mitigation and indemnification procedures in the Existing Agreement. 

9.1General Indemnification by State Street. Subject to any limitations of liability in the Existing Agreement and herein including Section 9.4 below, State Street, at its expense, shall indemnify and hold harmless the Funds from all Losses relating to any Claim against the Funds to the extent caused by: (a) a breach by State Street (or its Delegates) of its obligations set forth in Exhibit D, (b) a breach by State Street (or its Delegates) of the applicable Standard of Care, or (c) intentional breach, gross negligence, fraud or willful or intentional misconduct of State Street (or its Delegates) in the discharge of or failure to discharge any of its obligations under this Amendment.

If the Fund(s) asks State Street whether State Street will take control of the defense of a Claim, State Street must decide whether to do so and notify the applicable Fund(s) of its decision within two (2) weeks (and take control upon such notice if State Street so decides). The Fund(s) may, at their own cost, participate (through its attorneys or otherwise) in such defense. Neither any settlement of a Claim that involves a remedy other than the payment of money by State Street nor any admission of liability, fault, culpability, or failure by the Fund(s) shall be entered into without the prior written consent of the applicable Fund(s). If State Street does not assume control over the defense of a Claim as provided in this Section 9.3, the applicable Fund(s) may defend the Claim in such manner as it may deem appropriate, at the cost and expense of State Street. 

9.4Exclusion to Indemnity Obligation. The indemnification obligation set forth in this Section 9 shall not apply and State Street shall have no obligation to indemnify the Fund(s) to the extent any such loss, liability, cost or expense was caused by: (a) the failure of any identified assumptions or dependencies not caused by a breach by State Street; 

(b) a breach by the Fund(s) of any obligation under the Existing Agreement; or (c) events, facts or circumstances that otherwise excuse State Street from its obligations under this Amendment or limit its liability with respect thereto.

EXHIBIT A

STATE STREET INFORMATION SECURITY PROGRAM

State Street and the Funds hereby agree that State Street shall maintain an Information Security Program that satisfies the requirements set forth below; provided, that, because Information Security is a highly dynamic space (where laws, regulations and threats are constantly changing), State Street reserves the right to make changes to its information security controls at any time and at the sole discretion of State Street in a manner that does not materially reduce the protection it applies to Fund Data.

From time to time, State Street may provide Fund Data to a third party in connection with the performance of the Services under the Existing Agreement; provided that, State Street will use commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate security measures with such third parties substantially the same as those described in these Security Standards. In the event that State Street is unable to negotiate a contractual obligation to maintain such security measures, State Street shall perform due diligence with respect to such third party, including, without limitation, its security controls, and mitigate any such lack of contractual obligation, to the extent possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this State Street Information Security Program schedule shall reduce or otherwise modify State Street’s obligations under the Amendment or the Existing Agreement, including, but not limited to, State Street’s responsibility for its Delegates pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Amendment or for its confidentiality obligations, including with regard to Delegates, pursuant to Section 4 of the Amendment.

1.Information Security Program Objective. 

State Street shall, at all times, maintain and adhere to, in all material respects, an Information Security Program that requires it to implement data security measures consistent in all material respects with applicable prevailing financial industry practices and standards and applicable Legal Requirements that are designed to:

(b)protect against accidental, unauthorized, unauthenticated or unlawful access, copying, use, processing, disclosure, alteration, corruption, transfer, loss or destruction of the Fund Data;

(d)implement customary administrative, physical, technical, procedural and organizational safeguards.

(b)Risk Mitigation - State Street shall use commercially reasonable efforts to manage, control and remediate any threats identified in any of the Risk Assessments that are likely to result in unauthorized access, copying, use, processing, disclosure, alteration, transfer, loss or destruction of Fund Data commensurate with the sensitivity of the Fund Data necessary for or related to the performance of Services by State Street. 

(c)Security Controls Testing (SOC Reporting) - State Street shall, approximately once every other calendar year, engage an independent external party to conduct periodic testing of State Street’s Information Security Program and practices. State Street shall have a process to review and evaluate findings resulting from this testing and remediate them, to the extent High or Critical (equivalent to a rating above 6.9 pursuant to the Common Vulnerability Scoring System v.3.0 or as designated under any successor system) and, in each case, technically feasible, or mitigate or risk accept them, in each case, on a time scale commensurate with the risk they represent and as may be further summarized in the security controls. 

(d)Pen Testing - State Street will, approximately once each other calendar year during the term of the Existing Agreement, engage an independent external party to conduct penetration testing on its network and internet-facing applications that any Fund accesses in connection with the Services provided by State Street. State Street shall have a process to review and evaluate findings resulting from this testing and remediate, to the extent High or Critical (equivalent to a rating above 6.9 pursuant to the Common Vulnerability Scoring System v.3.0 or as designated under any successor system) and, in each case, technically feasible, or mitigate or risk accept them, in each case, on a time scale commensurate with the risk they represent and as may be further summarized in the security controls. In connection with a request from any Fund to discuss State Street’s Security Standards pursuant to Section 3 below, State Street will discuss with the Fund a high level summary of the testing, which will include, as a minimum, the date of such testing and the methodology used and themes resulting from such penetration testing. 

3.Security Controls. Annually, upon any Fund’s reasonable request, State Street shall provide the Fund a copy of its Corporate Information Security controls that form part of the Information Security Program and an opportunity to discuss State Street’s Security Standards with a qualified member of State Street’s Information Technology management team, which shall include an opportunity to review any changes that State Street made to its information security controls since the last review.

In addition to the foregoing, State Street requires its third party providers to undertake, as part of its standard hiring and vendor due diligence practices, appropriate pre-employment background investigations consistent with industry standards with respect to any personnel that are assigned to perform services for State Street or otherwise have access to confidential information of State Street or its clients. 

(g)Internet Facing Applications – State Street will use multifactor authentication for the Funds’ users accessing Internet facing applications permitting financial instructions/transactions or displaying personally identifiable information.

(a)Incident Management/Notification of Breach - State Street shall develop and implement an incident response plan that specifies actions to be taken when State Street or one of its Delegates detects that a party has gained unauthorized access (including inadvertent disclosures) to Fund Data (the “Response Plan”). Such Response Plan shall include an escalation procedure that includes notification to senior managers and appropriate reporting to Regulatory Authorities and law enforcement agencies. This procedure shall provide for reporting of incidents that compromise the confidentiality of Fund Data (including backed up data) to the Funds via telephone or email (and provide a confirmatory notice in writing as soon as practicable); provided that the foregoing notice obligation is excused for such period of time as State Street is prohibited by Legal Requirement from notifying the Funds. 

(b)State Street shall promptly notify the Funds (but in no event later than forty-eight (48) hours or such shorter timeframe as may be required under applicable Legal Requirement) after State Street knows that unauthorized access to Fund Data has occurred, unless otherwise prohibited by Legal Requirement.
