Capitalized terms used in this Amendment without definition shall have the respective meanings given to such terms in the Contract referred to below.

WHEREAS, the Funds, PIMCO and State Street entered into a Custody and Investment Accounting Agreement dated as of January 1, 2000 (the “Contract”); and

WHEREAS, the Funds are authorized to issue shares in separate series, with each such series representing interests in a separate portfolio of securities and other assets, and the Fund has made each such series subject to the Contract (each such series, together with all other series subsequently established by a Fund and made subject to the Contract in accordance with the terms thereof, shall be referred to as a “Portfolio”, and, collectively, the “Portfolios”); and

WHEREAS, the Funds, PIMCO and State Street desire to amend certain provisions of the Contract to reflect revisions to Rule 17f-5 (“Rule 17f-5”) and the adoption of Rule 17f-7 (“Rule 17f-7”) promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); and

WHEREAS, the Funds, PIMCO and State Street desire to amend and restate certain other provisions of the Contract relating to the custody of assets of each of the Portfolios held outside of the United States.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter contained, the parties hereby agree to amend the Contract, pursuant to the terms thereof; as follows:

I. Section 3, Paragraph Q of the Contract is hereby deleted.

II. New Section 3, Paragraph Q of the Contract is hereby added, as of the effective date of this Amendment, as set forth below.

3.Q. Provisions Relating to Rule 17f-5

3.Q.1. Definitions. Capitalized terms in this Amendment shall have the following meanings:

“Country Risk” means all factors reasonably related to the systemic risk of holding Foreign Assets in a particular country including, but not limited to, such country’s political environment, economic and financial infrastructure (including any Eligible Securities Depository operating in the country), prevailing or developing custody and settlement practices, and laws and regulations applicable to the safekeeping and recovery of Foreign Assets held in custody in that country.

“Eligible Foreign Custodian” has the meaning set forth in section (a)(1) of Rule 17f-5 (as such term may be interpreted or modified by appropriate action of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)).

“Eligible Securities Depository” has the meaning set forth in section (b)(1) of Rule 17f-7 (as such term may be interpreted or modified by appropriate action of the SEC).

“Foreign Assets” means any of the Portfolios’ investments (including foreign currencies) for which the primary market is outside the United States, and any cash and cash equivalents that are reasonably necessary to effect the Portfolios’ transactions in such investments.

“Foreign Custody Manager” has the meaning set forth in section (a)(3) of Rule 17f-5 (as such term may be interpreted or modified by appropriate action of the SEC).

3.Q.2. Delegation to State Street as Foreign Custody Manager. Each Fund, by resolution adopted by its Board of Trustees (each a “Board”), hereby delegates to State Street, subject to Section (b) of Rule 17f-5, the responsibilities set forth in this Section 3.Q. with respect to Foreign Assets of the Portfolios of such Fund held outside the United States, and State Street hereby accepts such delegation as Foreign. Custody Manager with respect to the Portfolios.

3.Q.3. Countries Covered. The Foreign Custody Manager shall be responsible for performing the delegated responsibilities defined below only with respect to the countries and custody arrangements for each such country listed on Schedule A to this Contract, which list of countries may be amended from time to time by the Fund with the agreement of the Foreign Custody Manager. The Foreign Custody Manager shall list on Schedule A the Eligible Foreign Custodians selected by the Foreign Custody Manager to maintain the assets of the Portfolios, which list of Eligible Foreign Custodians may be amended from time to time in the sole discretion of the Foreign Custody Manager. The Foreign Custody Manager will provide amended versions of Schedule A in accordance with Section 3.Q.6 hereof.

Upon the receipt by the Foreign Custody Manager of Instructions to open an account or to place or maintain Foreign Assets in a country listed on Schedule A, and the fulfillment by the Fund, on behalf of its Portfolios, of the applicable account opening requirements for such country, the Foreign Custody Manager shall be deemed to have been delegated by the applicable Board on behalf of its Portfolios responsibility as Foreign Custody Manager with respect to that country and to have accepted such delegation. Execution of this Amendment by a Fund shall be deemed to be an Instruction to open an account, or to place or maintain Foreign Assets, of each Portfolio of the Fund in each country listed on Schedule A in which State Street has previously placed or currently maintains Foreign Assets pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Following the receipt

2

of Instructions directing the Foreign Custody Manager to close the account of a Portfolio with the Eligible Foreign Custodian selected by the Foreign Custody Manager in a designated country, the delegation by such Board on behalf of such Portfolios to State Street as Foreign Custody Manager for that country shall be deemed to have been withdrawn and State Street shall immediately cease to be the Foreign Custody Manager of the Portfolios with respect to that country.

The Foreign Custody Manager may withdraw its acceptance of delegated responsibilities with respect to a designated country upon written notice to a Fund. Sixty days (or such longer period to which the parties agree in writing) after receipt of any such notice by the Fund, State Street shall have no further responsibility in its capacity as Foreign Custody Manager to that Fund with respect to the country as to which State Street’s acceptance of delegation is withdrawn.

3.Q.4. Scope of Delegated Responsibilities:

(a) Selection of Eligible Foreign Custodians. Subject to the provisions of Section 3.Q., the Foreign Custody Manager may place and maintain the Foreign Assets in the care of the Eligible Foreign Custodian selected by the Foreign Custody Manager in each country listed on Schedule A, as amended from time to time. In performing its delegated responsibilities as Foreign Custody Manager to place or maintain Foreign Assets with an Eligible Foreign Custodian, the Foreign Custody Manager shall determine that the Foreign Assets will be subject to reasonable care, based on the standards applicable to custodians in the relevant market, after considering all factors relevant to the safekeeping of such assets, including without limitation, the factors specified in Rule 17f-5(c)(1), as amended from time to time.

(b) Contracts With Eligible Foreign Custodians. The Foreign Custody Manager shall determine that each arrangement with an Eligible Foreign Custodian is governed by a written contract and that such contract will satisfy the requirements of Rule 17f-5(c)(2), as amended from time to time.

(c) Monitoring. In each case in which the Foreign Custody Manager maintains Foreign Assets with an Eligible Foreign Custodian selected by the Foreign Custody Manager, the Foreign Custody Manager shall have established a system to monitor (i) the appropriateness of maintaining the Foreign Assets with such Eligible Foreign Custodian and (ii) the performance of the contract governing the custody arrangements established by the Foreign Custody Manager with the Eligible Foreign Custodian under Rule 17f-5(c)(2). In the event the Foreign Custody Manager determines that the custody arrangements with an Eligible Foreign Custodian it has selected are no longer appropriate or no longer meet the requirements of Rule 17f-5, the Foreign Custody Manager shall notify the applicable Board in accordance with Section 3.Q.6 hereunder and State Street shall, upon Instruction, assist the Portfolios in withdrawing their assets from such Eligible Foreign Custodian as soon as reasonably practicable.

3.Q.5. Guidelines for the Exercise of Delegated Authority. For purposes of this Section 3.Q, the Board, or at its delegation the Fund’s investment adviser, shall be deemed to have considered and determined to accept such Country Risk as is incurred by placing and maintaining the Foreign Assets in each country for which State Street is serving as Foreign Custody Manager of the Portfolios.

3

3.Q.6. Reporting Requirements. The Foreign Custody Manager shall report the withdrawal of the Foreign Assets from an Eligible Foreign Custodian and the placement of such Foreign Assets with another Eligible Foreign Custodian by providing to the applicable Board an amended Schedule A at the end of the calendar quarter in which an amendment to such Schedule has occurred. The Foreign Custody Manager shall make written quarterly reports notifying the Board of any other material change in the foreign custody arrangements of the Portfolios described in this Section 3.Q after the occurrence of the material change.

3.Q.7. Standard of Care as Foreign Custody Manager of a Portfolio. In performing the responsibilities delegated to it hereunder, the Foreign Custody Manager agrees to exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence such as a person having responsibility for the safekeeping of a Portfolio’s Foreign Assets would exercise.

3.Q.8. Representations with Respect to Rule 17f-5. The Foreign Custody Manager represents to the Fund that it is a U.S. Bank as defined in section (a)(7) of Rule 17f-5 and is otherwise eligible to serve as a Foreign Custody Manager under Rule 17f-5. Each Fund represents to State Street that its Board has determined that it is reasonable for the Board to rely on State Street to perform the responsibilities delegated pursuant to this Contract to State Street as the Foreign Custody Manager of the Fund’s Portfolios.

3.Q.9. Effective Date and Termination of State Street as Foreign Custody Manager. Each Board’s delegation to State Street as Foreign Custody Manager of the Fund’s applicable Portfolios shall be effective as of the date hereof and shall remain in effect until terminated at any time, without penalty, by written notice from the terminating party to the non-terminating party. Termination of State Street as Foreign Custody Manager will become effective thirty (30) days after receipt by the non-terminating party of such notice. The provisions of Section 3.Q.3 hereof shall govern the delegation to and termination of State Street as Foreign Custody Manager of the Portfolios with respect to designated countries.

3.Q.10. Analysis and Monitoring Under Rule 17f-7. State Street shall (a) provide each Fund (or its duly-authorized investment manager or investment adviser) with an analysis of the custody risks associated with maintaining assets with the Eligible Securities Depositories set forth on Schedule B hereto, as amended from time to time, in accordance with section (a)(1)(i)(A) of Rule 17f-7, as amended from time to time, and (b) monitor such risks on a continuing basis, and promptly notify the Fund (or its duly-authorized investment manager or investment adviser) of any material change in such risks, in accordance with section (a)(1)(i)(B) of Rule 17f-7, as amended from time to time.

3.Q.11. Standard of Care Under Rule 17f-7. State Street agrees to exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence in performing the requirements and duties set forth in Section 3.Q.10.

4

3.Q.12. Eligible Securities Depositories. State Street has made the determination that each depository institution listed on Schedule B hereto is an “Eligible Securities Depository” as defined in section (b)(1) of Rule 17f-7. State Street shall promptly inform the Funds if it becomes aware that any of the factors set forth in section (b)(1) of Rule 17f-7 no long apply to a depository institution listed on Schedule B hereto, as such factors may be interpreted or modified by appropriate action of the SEC from time to time, i.e., such depository institution no longer: (i) acts as or operates a system for the central handling of securities or equivalent book-entries in the country where it is incorporated, or acts as a transnational system for the central handling of securities or equivalent book-entries, (ii) is regulated by a foreign financial regulatory authority as defined under Section 2(a)(50) of the Investment Company Act, (iii) holds assets for the custodian that participates in the system on behalf of a Fund under safekeeping conditions no less favorable than the conditions that apply to other participants, (iv) maintains records that identify the assets of each participant and segregates the system’s own assets from the assets of participants, (v) provides periodic reports to its participants with respect to its safekeeping of assets, including notices of transfer to or from any participant’s account, or (vi) is subject to periodic examination by regulatory authorities or independent accountants.

III. New Section 3, Paragraph Y of the Contract is hereby added, as of the effective date of this Amendment, as set forth below.

State Street may revise Schedule C from time to time, provided that no such revision shall result in the Board being provided with substantively less information than had been previously provided hereunder.

3.Y.5. Registration of Foreign Securities. A Portfolio’s foreign securities maintained in the custody of a Foreign Sub-Custodian (other than bearer securities) shall be registered in the name of such Portfolio or in the name of State Street or in the name of any Foreign Sub-Custodian or in the name of any nominee of the foregoing (provided, however, that such registration indicates such foreign securities as having been held for the benefit of customers and not, in any event, for the benefit of State Street or a Foreign Sub-Custodian or any nominee thereof), and the applicable Fund on behalf of such Portfolio agrees to hold any such nominee harmless from any liability as a holder of record of such foreign securities. State Street or a Foreign Sub-Custodian shall not be obligated to accept securities on behalf of a Portfolio under the terms of this Contract unless the form of such securities and the manner in which they are delivered are in accordance with reasonable market practice.

3.Y.6. Bank Accounts. State Street shall identify on its books as belonging to a Portfolio cash (including cash denominated in foreign currencies) deposited with State Street. Where State Street is unable to maintain, or market practice does not facilitate the maintenance of, cash on the books of State Street, a bank account or bank accounts shall be opened and maintained outside the United States on behalf of such Portfolio with a Foreign Sub-Custodian. All accounts referred to in this Section shall be subject only to draft or order by State Street (or, if applicable, such Foreign Sub-Custodian) acting pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to hold cash received by or from or for the account of the Portfolio.

8

3.Y.7. Collection of Income. State Street shall use reasonable commercial efforts to collect all income and other payments with respect to the Foreign Assets held hereunder to which any Portfolio shall be entitled and shall credit such income, as collected, to the applicable Portfolio.

3.Y.8. Shareholder Rights. With respect to the foreign securities held pursuant to this Agreement, State Street will use reasonable commercial efforts to facilitate the exercise of voting and other shareholder rights, subject always to the laws, regulations and practical constraints that may exist in the country where such securities are issued. Each Fund acknowledges that local conditions, including lack of regulation, onerous procedural obligations, lack of notice and other factors may have the effect of severely limiting the ability of the Fund to exercise shareholder rights.

3.Y.9. Communications Relating to Foreign Securities. State Street shall transmit promptly to each Fund written information with respect to materials received by State Street via the Foreign Sub-Custodians from issuers of the foreign securities being held for the account of the Fund’s Portfolios (including, without limitation, pendency of calls and maturities of foreign securities and expirations of rights in connection therewith). With respect to tender or exchange offers, State Street shall transmit promptly to each Fund written information with respect to materials so received by State Street from issuers of the foreign securities whose tender or exchange is sought or from the party (or its agents) making the tender or exchange offer. Absent State Street’s negligence, misfeasance or misconduct, State Street shall not be liable for any untimely exercise of any tender, exchange or other right or power in connection with foreign securities or other property of the Portfolios at any time held by it unless (i) State Street or the respective Foreign Sub-Custodian is in actual possession of such foreign securities or property and (ii) State Street receives Instructions with regard to the exercise of any such right or power, and both (i) and (ii) occur at least three business days prior to the date on which State Street is to take action to exercise such right or power.

3.Y.10. Liability of Foreign Sub-Custodians. Each agreement pursuant to which State Street employs a Foreign Sub-Custodian shall, to the extent possible, require the Foreign Sub-Custodian to exercise reasonable care in the performance of its duties, and to indemnify, and hold harmless, State Street, and each Fund and Portfolio from and against any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim arising out of or in connection with the Foreign Sub-Custodian’s performance of such obligations. At a Fund’s election, the Fund’s Portfolios shall be entitled to be subrogated to the rights of State Street with respect to any claims against a Foreign Sub-Custodian as a consequence of any such loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim if and to the extent that the Fund and any applicable Portfolios have not been made whole for any such loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim.

9

3.Y.11. Tax Law. State Street shall have no responsibility or liability for any obligations now or hereafter imposed on the Fund, the Portfolios or State Street as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of the United States or of any state or political subdivision thereof unless and to the extent that such liability or obligation arises due to State Street’s negligence, misfeasance or misconduct. It shall be the responsibility of each Fund to notify State Street of the obligations imposed on the Fund with respect to its Portfolios or State Street as custodian of the Portfolios by the tax law of countries other than those mentioned in the above sentence, including responsibility for withholding and other taxes, assessments or other governmental charges, certifications and governmental reporting. The sole responsibility of State Street with regard to such tax law shall be to use reasonable efforts to assist the Fund with respect to any claim for exemption or refund under the tax law of countries for which the Fund has provided such information.

3.11.12. Liability of Custodian. Except as may arise from State Street’s own negligence, misfeasance or willful misconduct or the negligence, misfeasance or willful misconduct of a Foreign Sub-Custodian, State Street shall be without liability to the Fund for any loss, liability, claim or expense to the extent that such loss, liability, claim or expense results directly from or is caused directly by Country Risk. State Street shall be liable for the acts or omissions of a Foreign Sub-Custodian to the same extent as set forth with respect to sub-custodians generally in the Contract and, regardless of whether assets are maintained in the custody of a Foreign Sub-Custodian or a Foreign Securities System, State Street shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, expense, liability or claim resulting from nationalization, expropriation, currency restrictions, or acts of war or terrorism, or any other loss where the Sub-Custodian has otherwise acted with reasonable care.

IV. Except as specifically superseded or modified herein, the terms and provisions of the Contract shall continue to apply with full force and effect. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Contract prior to this Amendment and this Amendment, the terms of this Amendment shall prevail. If State Street is delegated the responsibilities of Foreign Custody Manager pursuant to the terms of Section 3, Paragraph Q hereof, in the event of any conflict between the provisions of Section 3, Paragraph Q and Section 3, Paragraph Y hereof, the provisions of Section 3, Paragraph Q shall prevail.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties has caused this Amendment to be executed in its name and behalf by its duly authorized representative as of the date first above written.

RE: Custody and Investment Accounting Agreements with State Street Bank and Trust Company as referenced on Attachment A hereto (the “Custody Agreements”)

John:

This letter will follow up our recent discussions about PIMCO’s intraday overdraft activity. As you know, in each of the Custody Agreements, the contracting PIMCO entity grants (in Section 3) State Street a lien on the assets subject to the Custody Agreement as security for any advance of cash or securities made by State Street, with the ability to utilize cash and dispose of assets to satisfy any unpaid advances and related charges. However, each of the Custody Agreements also includes certain language (the “Lien Limitation”) which requires, prior to the exercise of its lien rights, that:

“(i) State Street ... has given PIMCO 2 days’ notice of the amount due and of its intent to so utilize and dispose of custodied Assets; and (ii) the applicable Portfolio shall not have satisfied the obligation. During such 2 day notice period, PIMCO shall have the option to direct State Street … regarding which and in what priority order custodied Assets are to be utilized and disposed of.”

As we discussed, several of the PIMCO portfolios have implemented trading strategies that involve voluminous intraday trading activity of securities settling via Fed Book Entry prior to available funding. This trading results in substantial intraday overdrafts in the related PIMCO accounts. The Fed allows State Street to collateralize such overdrafts by way of State Street’s assignment of its custodial lien rights. State Street believes that the Lien Limitation precludes State Street from pledging PIMCO’s assets to the Fed in order to collateralize PIMCO’s intraday overdrafts. Accordingly, State Street must currently indicate to the Fed that PIMCO’s Fed Book Entry assets are not available for pledging.

As we discussed, in order to eliminate the problem described above and clarify our mutual understanding of the intent of the Lien Limitation in each of the Custody Agreements, each of the PIMCO entities listed below hereby agrees to waive the Lien Limitation with respect to PIMCO’s custodied assets solely for the purpose of allowing State Street to assign its custodial lien rights with respect to such assets to the Fed in order to allow State Street to collateralize trades through the applicable Fed Book Entry account.

Please acknowledge your receipt of and agreement with this letter by signing the enclosed duplicate original and returning it to the undersigned for State Street’s contract file. If you have any questions or concerns, please call me at (816) 871-9501.

Sincerely,

Brock Hill
