DEALER/AGENCY AGREEMENT
Ladies and Gentlemen:

American Century Investment Services, Inc. (“Distributor”) is the distributor and
American Century Services, LLC (“Transfer Agent”) is the transfer agent (collectively with the
Distributor, “we” or “us”) of the shares of the American Century family of mutual funds
(collectively, the “Funds,” and individually, a “Fund”). Distributor has the right, as agent for the
Funds, to arrange for the sale of shares of the Funds to dealers or the public, or both. We invite
you to make shares of the various classes of the Funds available to your customers upon the
following terms and conditions:

1. Availability of Shares. Distributor agrees to cause the Funds to sell to, redeem
from and exchange for you shares of beneficial interest (“Shares”) of one or more classes of the
Funds, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Fund’s then-current
prospectus and statement of additional information and any supplements thereto (collectively the
“Prospectus”), and any limitations imposed by any of the Funds or the investment advisor of the
Funds. To the extent that a Prospectus contains provisions that are inconsistent with the terms of
this Agreement, the terms of the Prospectus shall control.

2. Purchase and Sale of Shares. (a) The public offering price at which you may
offer the Shares is the net asset value thereof plus any sales charge applicable to such Shares (the
“Sales Charge”), as computed from time to time as described in the Prospectus of the applicable
class of the relevant Fund. You agree to make Shares available to your customers subject to
minimum investment requirements applicable to each order, unless you register your customer
purchases in your name and omnibus account as nominee. You further acknowledge and agree
that tracking and application of any Sales Charge, including any scheduled variation in, or
elimination of, such Sales Charge, is your responsibility and will be charged uniformly to all
offerees in the class specified in the Prospectus. You understand that all orders are subject to
acceptance or rejection by us or the Funds in the sole discretion of either.

(b) Each transaction is always made subject to confirmation by us at the offering
price next computed after receipt of the order. Subject to Sections 2(d), 2(h) and 2(i) below,
orders to purchase, redeem and exchange Shares (“Orders”) received by you prior to the price
time for each Fund as set forth in its Prospectus (the “Price Time”), generally the close of regular
trading on the New York Stock Exchange on any given business day (currently 4:00 p.m. Eastern
time) (each a “Business Day”), and transmitted in accordance with Section 7 hereof either (1) to
the Transfer Agent prior to the Price Time on such Business Day or (2) pursuant to the National

1




Securities Clearing Corporation’s (“NSCC”) Mutual Fund Settlement, Entry and Redemption
Verification (“Fund/SERV”) system, will be executed at the net asset value determined as of the
relevant Fund’s Price Time on such Business Day. Any Orders transmitted to the Transfer Agent
after a Fund’s Price Time on a Business Day will be executed at the net asset value determined
as of that Fund’s Price Time on the next Business Day.

(c) The day as of which an Order is executed pursuant to the provisions set forth
above is referred to as the “Trade Date.”

(d) Any Order by you for the purchase of Shares through us shall be accepted at the
time when it is received by Transfer Agent or any clearinghouse agency we may designate from
time to time, unless rejected by Transfer Agent. We will not accept any Order from you that is
placed on a conditional basis or is subject to any delay or contingency prior to execution.

(e) Subject to Section 2(g) hereof, with respect to the Funds, the Shares of which are
indicated in that Fund’s Prospectus as being sold with a Sales Charge (the “Load Funds”), you
will be allowed the concessions from the public offering price provided in such Load Fund’s
Prospectus and/or periodic instruction from us. If a Load Fund is sold but the front-end load is
waived, you will not receive any concession. With respect to the Funds, the Shares of which are
indicated in that Fund’s Prospectus as being sold with a contingent deferred sales charge or early
withdrawal charge (the “CDSC Funds”), you will be paid a concession as disclosed in such
CDSC Fund’s Prospectus and/or periodic instructions from us. If a CDSC Fund is sold but the
CDSC is waived, you will not receive any concession. All dealer concessions are subject to
change without notice by us and will comply with any changes in regulatory requirements. You
agree that you will not combine customer orders to reach breakpoints in concessions for any
purpose whatsoever unless authorized by the Prospectus or by us in writing. No dealer discount
or concession is applicable to Shares representing reinvested dividends and distributions.

(f) Certain of the classes of certain Funds have adopted distribution plans pursuant to
which Distributor, on behalf of each such Fund, will pay a distribution fee and, for some classes,
a service fee to dealers in accordance with the provisions of such Funds’ distribution plans. The
service fee is paid in accordance with Section 2(g) hereof as additional consideration for,
depending on the class, all individual shareholder services, including account maintenance
services, or administrative services provided by you to shareholders of the applicable Fund. The
distribution fee is paid to the broker of record as consideration for the distribution services the
broker of record provides to its customers, including receiving and answering correspondence,
assisting investors in completing application forms and selecting dividend and other account
options, providing facilities to answer questions from customers about the Funds, and other past
and continuing services to customers. The provisions and terms of these Funds’ distribution
plans are described in their respective Prospectuses, and you hereby agree that we have made no
representations to you with respect to the distribution plans of such Funds in addition to, or
conflicting with, the description set forth in their respective Prospectuses. Notwithstanding any
other provision hereof, our obligation to make payments of applicable distribution fees to you
with respect to any money market Fund, if any, shall be contingent upon receipt by us of such
payment from the respective money market Fund.

2



(g) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, any dealer concessions, service fees
or other payments described herein shall be paid only to the broker of record pursuant to our
records, whether that broker is the executing or clearing broker. Only one broker may be
designated as the broker of record on any account. If you wish to receive concessions, service
fees or other payments electronically, you agree to provide proper banking instructions to
Distributor by completing and returning Distributor’s Electronic Payment Form. You further
agree to promptly notify Distributor of any change in such electronic payment information and to
update such electronic payment information as requested by Distributor from time to time. No
interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed dealer discount, concession, service fee
or distribution fee checks.

(h) Any Order placed by you for the purchase of Shares is subject to the timely
receipt by Transfer Agent of all required documents in good order. If such documents are not
received within a reasonable time after the Order is placed, the Order is subject to cancellation,
in which case you agree to be responsible for any loss resulting to the Fund or to us from such
cancellation.

(i) Notwithstanding Section 2(b) above, if the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) adopts a rule, or a law is enacted, that changes the requirements for intermediaries with
regard to accepting Orders on behalf of the Funds or the timing of transmitting Orders to the
Funds’ Transfer Agent or otherwise affects the way Orders are accepted, transmitted or priced,
Section 2(b) shall be deemed to be automatically amended to comply with such new rule or law.

(j) You represent and warrant that you will consider all guidelines from the Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and the SEC when determining whether a Fund
is appropriate for a customer, and which class is most appropriate. You further represent and
warrant that you will recommend Shares only for those customers for whom the investment is
suitable according to any such guidelines current at the time of the recommendation.

3. Redemptions. If any Shares of any of the Load Funds sold to you under the terms
of this Agreement are redeemed by the Fund or repurchased for the account of the Funds or are
tendered to the Funds for redemption or repurchase within seven (7) Business Days after the
Trade Date of your original purchase order therefor, you agree to pay forthwith to Distributor the
full amount of the concession, if any, allowed to you on the original sale.

4. Representations. (a) You represent that (i) you are registered as a broker and/or
dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are licensed and qualified as

authorized to engage in the activities to be performed by you hereunder; (ii) your agents and
employees are and will remain duly registered and licensed to offer and sell Shares in those
jurisdictions in which you do so; and (iii) if you are a broker/dealer, you are a member in good

3



regulatory agency that are binding upon underwriters and dealers in the distribution of securities
of open-end investment companies, including, without limitation, Rule 2830 of the National
Association of Securities Dealers (“NASD”) Conduct Rules (as may be amended or otherwise
consolidated with FINRA Rules), all of which are incorporated herein as if set forth in full, or
you represent that you are exempt from compliance with such laws, rules and regulations. You
agree not to sell or offer for sale Shares in any state or jurisdiction where they have not been
qualified for sale (as stated in such Fund’s Prospectus) or in which you are not qualified as a
broker, dealer or bank. You agree to notify us immediately if you cease to be registered or
licensed as a broker and/or dealer or fail to remain as a member in good standing of FINRA, or if
you cease to be a bank, as defined above.

(b) Should you provide brokerage clearing services to broker-dealers or other
financial intermediaries who wish to sell Shares to their customers (“Originating Firms”), you
represent that you and each such Originating Firm are parties to a clearing agreement which
conforms in all respects to the requirements of FINRA Rule 4311 or, as applicable, the rules of a
national securities exchange. In connection with your provision of such brokerage clearing
services, you acknowledge and agree that we have no responsibility for determining whether
Shares are suitable for customers of your Originating Firms.

(c) Distributor represents that (i) it is registered as a broker/dealer under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is licensed and qualified as a broker and/or
dealer or otherwise authorized to offer and sell the Shares under the laws of each jurisdiction in
which the Shares are qualified for sale (as stated in such Fund’s Prospectus), and (ii) it is a
member in good standing of FINRA and agrees to maintain such membership. Distributor will
notify you immediately if it ceases to be registered or licensed as a broker and/or dealer or fails
to remain as a member in good standing of FINRA.

(d) Transfer Agent represents that (i) it is the transfer agent for all of the Shares, (ii) it is
registered with the SEC under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (iii) it is a
member in good standing of the Stock Transfer Association and (iv) it is responsible for
compliance with all federal and state laws applicable to a transfer agent. Transfer Agency will
notify you immediately if it ceases to be registered or a member in good standing of the
regulatory entities stated above.

5. Compliance Procedures and Sales Materials. (a) “Sales Material,” as used
herein, shall include, without limitation, promotional materials, sales literature, advertisements,
press releases, announcements, research reports, market letters, performance reports or
summaries, and other similar materials, including sales materials intended for wholesale use (i.e.,
Investment Professional Use Only) or retail use.

(b) Neither you nor any person associated with you shall give any information or
make any representation concerning the Funds or the Shares except those contained in the
Prospectus or any Sales Materials furnished by us or approved by us in writing in advance for
use in connection therewith (except that Sales Materials provided by us that are designated as
being for Investment Professional Use Only may not be disseminated to the public). Any Sales
Materials, if distributed, must be accompanied by or preceded by the appropriate Fund’s then

4




current prospectus. You agree that any information given or representations made on the basis of
any Sales Materials shall be consistent with the related information and representations contained
in the applicable Fund’s Prospectus.

(c) You agree to use your best efforts in the proper instruction and training of all
sales personnel employed by you in order that the Shares will be made available in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Prospectus, and all applicable laws, rules
and regulations.

(d) We will arrange for the delivery of Prospectuses, periodic reports, proxy materials
and other materials that are required by law to be sent to a Fund’s Shareholders (“Fund Related
Materials”) through a mailing agent to the extent such delivery is required by applicable law, and
will bear the cost of such delivery. We will provide you with the appropriate number of such
materials as requested by you from time to time. In the purchase of Shares through us, you are
entitled to rely only on the information contained in the Fund Related Materials.

(e) You agree to provide us with continuous reasonable access to your offices,
representatives and sales personnel at meetings, in person and via telephone or the world wide
web, and further agree to provide us with sales reporting information in reasonable detail,
including identification of the offices and representatives responsible for each Order.

6. Abusive Trading and Redemption Fee Funds.

(a) You acknowledge that you have received and reviewed information regarding our
abusive trading policy and Funds that charge redemption fees (“Redemption Fee Funds”).

(b) You represent and warrant that you have a policy designed to prevent abusive
trading, (including market timing) in the mutual funds you offer, and that you will provide us
with a copy of such policy upon our reasonable request. You covenant and agree that should we
identify abusive trading practices in any of your accounts, you will cooperate with us in seeking
to eliminate such abusive trading activity. In addition, you agree to provide detailed transaction
activity upon our request.

(c) If at any time you offer Redemption Fee Funds through accounts trading at the
shareholder level, we will track and assess the appropriate redemption fee for you. If at any time
you offer one or more Redemption Fee Funds through an omnibus account, where you are
performing shareholder level recordkeeping functions, and you have not already entered into a
Redemption Fee Payment Agreement with Distributor, you agree to sign a Redemption Fee
Payment Agreement with Distributor which sets forth additional details with respect to
Redemption Fee Fund availability and payment obligations.

7. Processing of Transactions.

(a) If transactions in Shares are to be settled through the NSCC’s Fund/SERV
system, the following provisions shall apply:

5



(1) Each party to this Agreement represents that it or one of its affiliates has
entered into the Standard Networking Agreement with the NSCC and it desires to
participate in the programs offered by the NSCC Fund/SERV system which provide (i)
an automated process whereby shareholder purchases and redemptions, exchanges and
transactions of mutual fund shares are executed through the Fund/SERV system, and (ii)
a centralized and standardized communication system for the exchange of customer-level
information and account activity through the Fund/SERV Networking system.

(2) For each Fund/SERV transaction, including transactions establishing
accounts with us or our affiliates, you shall provide us with all information necessary or
appropriate to establish and maintain each Fund/SERV transaction (and any subsequent
changes to such information), which you hereby certify is and shall remain true and
correct. You shall maintain documents required by us or the Funds to effect Fund/SERV
transactions. Each instruction shall be deemed to be accompanied by a representation by
you that it has received proper authorization from each person whose purchase,
redemption, account transfer or exchange transaction is effected as a result of such
instruction.

(3) At all times each party shall maintain insurance coverage that is
reasonable and customary in light of all its responsibilities hereunder and under
applicable law. Such coverage shall insure for losses resulting from the criminal acts,
errors or omissions of each party’s employees and agents.

(4) You represent and warrant that all instructions, questions and other
correspondence concerning the accounts for which trades are made in accordance with
this Section 7(a) shall come from you, and that individual account holders shall contact
you, rather than contact us or the Funds directly, with instructions, questions and requests
concerning the Funds. You further represent and warrant that you, rather than us or the
Funds, has reporting responsibility to your customers for confirmations of transactions
and monthly, quarterly and year-end statements.

(b) If transactions in Shares are to be settled directly with the Transfer Agent, the
procedures relating to the processing and settlement of Orders shall be subject to such
instructions as we may forward to you from time to time. Payment for purchase transactions
shall be made by wire transfer or through a clearinghouse agency approved by us to the
applicable Fund custodial account designated by us on the Business Day next following the
Trade Date. Any such wire transfers shall be instituted by your bank prior to 4:00 p.m. Eastern
time and received by the Funds prior to 6:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Business Day next
following the Trade Date. If payment for Shares purchased is not timely received, the Fund may
cancel the Order or, at our option, resell the Shares to the applicable Fund at the then prevailing
net asset value and you shall be responsible for all costs to us, the Funds or any affiliate of the
Funds resulting from such resale. You shall be responsible for any loss, expense, liability or
damage, including loss of profit suffered by us and/or the respective Funds resulting from delay
or failure to make timely payment for such Shares or cancellation of any trade, or for any Orders
that are processed on an “as of” basis as an accommodation to you. You shall not be entitled to
any gains generated thereby.

6



(c) You agree not to withhold placing Orders received from any customers for
the purchase or sale of Shares so as to profit yourself as a result of such withholding. You shall
not purchase Shares through us except for the purpose of covering purchase Orders received by
you, or for your bona fide investment. You agree to purchase Shares only from the Funds or
your customers. If you purchase Shares from your customers, you will pay such customers not
less than the applicable redemption price as established by the relevant Fund’s Prospectus.

8. Additional Covenants.

(a) Each party shall comply with all provisions of federal and state laws, rules and
regulations applicable to its respective activities under this Agreement. All obligations of each
party under this Agreement are subject to compliance with applicable federal and state laws. To
the extent it is applicable, the parties agree to abide by the terms of the Foreign Account Tax
Compliance Act (“FATCA”), including your provision to us of any information necessary for
our or the Funds’ FATCA compliance.

(b) You covenant and agree that all Orders transmitted to us, whether by telephone,
telecopy, or other electronic transmission acceptable to us, shall be sent by or under the authority
and direction of a person designated by you as being duly authorized to act on behalf of the
owner of the Shares held in your accounts. We shall be entitled to rely on the existence of such
authority and to assume that any person transmitting Orders for the purchase, redemption or
transfer of Shares on your behalf is “an appropriate person” as used in Sections 8-107 and 8-401
of the Uniform Commercial Code with respect to the transmission of instructions regarding
Shares on behalf of the owner of such Shares. You further agree to be responsible for the
accuracy, propriety and consequences of all data you transmit to us by telephone, telecopy or
other electronic transmission acceptable to us.

(c) You covenant and agree that all Orders received and transmitted by you hereunder
on any Business Day will be based upon instructions that you received from a customer in proper
form prior to the Price Time of the relevant Fund on that Business Day. You shall time stamp all
Orders or otherwise maintain records that will enable you to demonstrate compliance with this
Section 8(c) hereof. Further, upon our reasonable request, you will provide evidence reasonably
satisfactory to the Funds’ Board of Directors to demonstrate your compliance with Rule 22c-1
(under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) requirements and provide us with
copies of your internal control report, if one is obtained. You agree to promptly return any
requested certification of such practices, and understand that if you do not we may require you to
stop trading through the NSCC (if applicable) and send all trades directly to us by each Fund’s
Price Time on any Business Day.

9. Relationship of Parties. You understand and agree that in performing your
services covered by this Agreement, you are acting on your own behalf and as agent for your
customers, and we are in no way responsible for the manner of your performance or for any of
your acts or omissions in connection therewith. Except to the extent specifically set forth herein,
nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute you or any of your agents, employees
or representatives as our agent, partner, or employee, or the agent or employee of the Funds.
Distributor has full authority to take such action as we deem advisable in respect of all matters

7



pertaining to the distribution of the Shares. Our obligations under this Agreement are subject to
all the provisions of the distribution agreements entered into between Distributor and the Funds.
We shall not be under any obligation to you, except for obligations expressly assumed by us
under this Agreement.

10. Indemnity.

(a) We agree to indemnify and hold harmless you and your officers, directors,
employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls you within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for purposes of this
Section 10(a)) against any losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (including amounts paid
in settlement thereof) or litigation expenses (including legal and other expenses) (collectively,
“Losses”), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject, insofar as such Losses result from
a breach by us of a material provision of this Agreement. We will reimburse any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or
defending any such Losses. We shall not be liable for indemnification hereunder if such Losses are
attributable to your negligence or misconduct in performing your obligations under this Agreement.

(b) You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Distributor, Transfer Agent and the
Funds, and our respective officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any,
who controls us or the Funds within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for purposes of this Section 10(b)) against any Losses to
which the Indemnified Parties may become subject, insofar as such Losses result from (i) a breach
by you of a material provision of this Agreement or (ii) your sales practices and procedures,
including the provision of any information not provided or approved by us in accordance with
Section 5 hereof. You agree to reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the
Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating or defending any such Losses. You shall not
be liable for indemnification hereunder if such Losses are attributable to our negligence or
misconduct in performing our obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party hereunder of notice of the
commencement of action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against the indemnifying party hereunder, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement
thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability
which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10. In case any such
action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the
commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the
extent that it may wish to, assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified
party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to
assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party
under this Section 10 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

(d) If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of any such action, the indemnifying
party shall not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties in such action, settle or
compromise the liability of the indemnified parties in such action, or permit a default or consent to

8



the entry of any judgment in respect thereof, unless in connection with such settlement, compromise
or consent, each indemnified party receives from such claimant an unconditional release from all
liability in respect of such claim.

11. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by mutual agreement of the
parties in writing.

12. Termination; Withdrawal of Offering. Any party may terminate this Agreement
upon 30 days’ prior written notice to the other parties. This Agreement shall terminate
automatically without notice if (a) Distributor ceases to be a member of FINRA, (b) you cease to
be a member of FINRA, breach any provision of Section 2830 of NASD Conduct Rules (as may
be amended or otherwise consolidated with FINRA Rules), or you cease to be a bank, as defined
above, or (c) upon any attempted assignment hereof. This Agreement may be terminated at any
time as to any Fund by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund or
vote of a majority of the independent directors or trustees of that Fund. We reserve the right, in
our sole discretion and without prior notice, to suspend sales of Shares in any state or other
jurisdiction, to withdraw entirely the offering of Shares, or to modify or amend the terms of our
offering of Shares.

procedures in place reasonably designed to protect the privacy of non-public customer

use, or permit the use of, any such customer information for any purpose except to carry out the
terms of this Agreement and/or pursuant to any exceptions set forth in such privacy laws. This
provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

17. Anti-Money Laundering Provision. The parties hereto will comply with all
applicable laws and regulations aimed at preventing, detecting and reporting money laundering
and suspicious transactions, including, without limitation, applicable provisions of the Bank
Secrecy Act and the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, as well as regulations administered by the
U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control. In addition, you agree to

9



take all necessary and appropriate steps, consistent with applicable laws and regulations, to
obtain, verify, and retain information with regard to investor and/or account owner identification
