that

(1)

bears a handwritten signature material to the validity or enforceability of the Original Written document that is a Forgery, but only to the extent the Forgery causes the loss;

Coverage I.1.

Computer Fraud

Loss resulting directly from Computer Fraud.

Coverage I.2.

Loss resulting directly from the Insured or an Investment Adviser having, in good faith, caused a transfer of funds as a result of a Fraudulent Instruction when the Insured or an Investment Adviser, prior to causing the transfer of the funds, used its best efforts to verify the identity of the person transmitting the instruction; provided that if the instruction is purported to be from a Customer, the Insured, or an Investment Adviser:

performed a Callback Verification with respect to such instruction; or

followed commercially reasonable Security Procedures applicable to the transaction and instruction.

Such Fraudulent Instruction received and, if applicable, Callback Verification performed, must be either recorded, logged, or documented by the Insured or an Investment Adviser.

Restoration Expenses incurred by the Insured or an Investment Adviser and resulting from a Computer Violation by someone other than an Employee.

UNCOLLECTIBLE ITEMS OF DEPOSIT

Loss, including dividends and interest accrued not to exceed 15% of the value of each Item of Deposit that is deposited, resulting directly from the Insured or Investment Adviser having credited an account of a customer, shareholder or subscriber on the faith of any Items of Deposit that prove to be uncollectible, provided that the crediting of such account causes:

redemptions or withdrawals to be permitted;

shares to be issued; or

dividends to be paid.

It is a condition precedent to coverage under this Insuring Agreement that the Insured or Investment Adviser hold funds represented in Items of Deposit for the maximum number of days allowable under Regulation CC before permitting any redemptions or withdrawals, or issuing any shares or paying any dividends with respect to such Items of Deposit.

Items of Deposit will not be deemed to be uncollectible until the Insured’s or Investment Adviser’s standard collection procedures have failed.

This Insuring Agreement applies to Insureds with exchange privileges if all funds in the exchange program are insured by the Company for Uncollectible Items of Deposit. Regardless of the number of transactions between funds, the maximum number of days allowable under Regulation CC begins from the date a deposit was first credited to any fund in the exchange program.

III.

GENERAL AGREEMENTS

ORGANIC GROWTH

If an Insured or Investment Adviser, while this bond is in force, adds additional Employees other than by consolidation or merger with, or purchase or acquisition of the assets, assets under management or

IVBB-16001 Ed. 01-16	Page 6 of 25
© 2016 The Travelers Indemnity Company. All rights reserved.

liabilities of, another institution, such Employees will automatically be covered hereunder from the date of such addition without the requirement of notice to the Company or the payment of additional premium for the remainder of the Policy Period as set forth in ITEM 2 of the Declarations.

CONSOLIDATION - MERGER - PURCHASE OR ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

If the Insured or an Investment Adviser, while this bond is in force, consolidates or merges with, or purchases or acquires assets, assets under management or liabilities of, or purchases or acquires more than 50% voting stock ownership of another institution (hereinafter referred to as a “Transaction”), coverage under this bond for loss which:

has occurred or will occur in the offices or premises of such institution;

has been caused or will be caused by any employee or employees of such institution; or

has arisen or will arise out of the assets, assets under management or liabilities acquired by the Insured as a result of such Transaction,

is provided as follows:

Automatic Loss Sustained Coverage

If a Transaction involves assets, assets under management and liabilities in an amount that is more than 25% of the consolidated assets of all Insureds as of the most recent calendar year-end preceding the date of the Transaction, then coverage of this bond as respects the Transaction will be afforded for a Single Loss that is both discovered and for which the acts giving rise to the loss occur in their entirety on or after the effective date of the Transaction. This coverage terminates 60 days after the Transaction date, or the termination date of the bond, whichever comes earlier, unless the Insured provides notice to the Company and obtains the written consent of the Company to extend such coverage beyond said date and, upon obtaining such consent, pays to the Company an additional premium, if required.

Automatic Discovery Coverage

If a Transaction involves assets, assets under management and liabilities in an amount that is 25% or less of the consolidated assets of all Insureds as of the most recent calendar year-end preceding the date of the Transaction, then coverage of this bond as respects the Transaction will be afforded for a Single Loss that is discovered on or after the effective date of the Transaction, for the remainder of the Policy Period as set forth in ITEM 2 of the Declarations, without additional premium being charged and without notice to the Company of the Transaction.

REPRESENTATION OF INSURED

No statement made by or on behalf of the Insured, whether contained in the application or otherwise, is deemed to be a warranty of anything except that it is true to the best of the knowledge and belief of the person making the statement.

JOINT INSURED

This bond does not indemnify or hold harmless any Insured for loss sustained by an Investment Adviser, or by a proprietorship, partnership or corporation that is owned, controlled or operated by such Insured, and not named as an Insured hereunder, except as may be provided on a limited basis within General Agreement B., but this paragraph does not apply to loss sustained by a nominee organized by an Insured hereunder other than a holding company.

If two or more Insureds are covered under this bond, the first named Insured will act for all Insureds. Payment by the Company to the first named Insured of loss sustained by any Insured fully releases the Company on account of such loss. If the first named Insured ceases to be covered under this bond, the Insured next named will thereafter be considered the first named Insured. In the absence of an Insured

IVBB-16001 Ed. 01-16	Page 7 of 25
© 2016 The Travelers Indemnity Company. All rights reserved.

being specifically next named, the Insured entity having the greatest consolidated assets of all remaining Insureds then becomes the first named Insured. Knowledge possessed or discovery made by any Insured or Investment Adviser constitutes knowledge or discovery by all Insureds for all purposes of this bond. The liability of the Company for loss or losses sustained by all Insureds will not exceed the amount for which the Company would have been liable had all such loss or losses been sustained by one Insured.

COURT COSTS AND ATTORNEY’S FEES - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS - ELECTION TO DEFEND

The Company will indemnify the Insured against court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred and paid by the Insured in defending any suit or legal proceeding brought against the Insured to enforce the Insured’s liability, or alleged liability, on account of any loss, claim or damage that, if established against the Insured, would constitute a collectible loss under this bond in excess of any Single Loss Deductible Amount, provided, however, that with respect to Insuring Agreement A this indemnity will apply only in the event that:

an Employee admits to being guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement;

an Employee is adjudicated to be guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement; or

in the absence of 1. or 2. above, an arbitration panel agrees, after a review of an agreed statement of facts, that an Employee would be found guilty of Larceny or Embezzlement if such Employee were prosecuted.

Such indemnity is in addition to the Single Loss Limit of Insurance for the applicable Insuring Agreement or Coverage.

The Insured or an Investment Adviser must notify the Company promptly after notice thereof, of any such suit or legal proceeding and at the request of the Company will furnish it with copies of all pleadings and other papers therein. At the Company’s election the Insured will permit the Company to conduct the defense of such suit or legal proceeding, in the Insured’s name, through attorneys of the Company’s selection. In such event, the Insured and Investment Adviser will give all reasonable information and assistance, other than pecuniary, that the Company deems necessary to the defense of such suit or legal proceeding.

If the amount of the Insured’s liability or alleged liability is greater than the amount recoverable under this bond, or if a Single Loss Deductible Amount is applicable, or both, then the liability of the Company under this General Agreement E. is limited to the proportion of court costs and attorney’s fees incurred and paid by the Insured or by the Company that the amount recoverable under this bond bears to the total amount of the Insured’s liability or alleged liability. Any amount not recoverable by reason of the Insured’s liability or alleged liability being greater than the amount recoverable under any insuring agreement of this bond, does not serve to reduce the Single Loss Deductible Amount applicable to such Insuring Agreement or Coverage.

If the Company pays court costs and attorney’s fees in excess of its proportionate share of such costs and fees, the Insured will promptly reimburse the Company for such excess.

In case of a loss of subscription, conversion or redemption privileges through the misplacement or loss of securities, the amount of such loss will be the value of such privileges immediately preceding the expiration thereof. If such securities cannot be replaced or have no quoted market value, or if such privileges have no quoted market value, their value will be determined by agreement or, at the option of the Insured, arbitration.

If the applicable coverage of this bond is subject to a Single Loss Deductible Amount or is not sufficient in amount to indemnify the Insured in full for the loss of securities for which claim is made hereunder, the liability of the Company under this bond is limited to the payment for, or the duplication of, so much of such securities as has a value equal to the amount of such applicable coverage.

If, at the instance of the Company, the Insured or any customer of the Insured becomes principal upon any bonds, or gives any undertakings, required as a prerequisite to the reissuing or duplicating of any securities for the loss of which the Company is liable under this bond, the Company will become surety upon such bonds or undertakings without premium charge and will indemnify the Insured or such customer against any loss that the Insured or such customer may sustain by reason of having become principal upon any such bonds or having given any such undertakings. The amount of indemnity under this paragraph will not exceed the amount stated in ITEM 4 of the Declarations for the applicable Insuring Agreement.

materials plus the cost of labor for the actual transcription or copying of data that have been furnished by the Insured in order to reproduce such books and other records.

The Company may, at its election, pay the actual cash value of, repair or replace such Property.

With respect to damage of Property covered under Insuring Agreement B.2., the Company will be liable for the full cost of repair or replacement of such Property, without deduction for depreciation.

Disagreement between the Company and the Insured as to the cash value, replacement value or as to the adequacy of repair or replacement will be resolved by agreement or, at the option of the Insured, arbitration.

ASSIGNMENT

In the event of payment under this bond, the Insured or Investment Adviser will deliver, if so requested by the Company, an assignment of such of the Insured’s rights, title and interest and causes of action as it has against any person or entity to the extent of the loss payment.

SUBROGATION

In the event of payment under this bond, the Company will be subrogated to all of the Insured’s rights of recovery therefor against any person or entity to the extent of such payment. If the rules of a Depository provide that the Insured will be assessed for a portion of any judgment (or agreed settlement) taken by the Company based upon the assignment set forth in Condition J. above and the Insured actually pays such assessment, the Company will reimburse the Insured for the amount of the assessment. However, such reimbursement will not exceed the amount of the loss payment by the Company.

RECOVERIES

All recoveries, whether effected by the Company or by the Insured will be applied, after first deducting the costs and expenses incurred in obtaining such recovery, in the following order of priority:

first, to the Insured to reimburse the Insured for loss sustained that would have been paid under this bond but for the fact that such loss is in excess of the Single Loss Limit of Insurance, provided however, such loss does not include claim expense payments made by the Insured in excess of the Single Loss Limit of Insurance of Insuring Agreement G and such payments will not be deemed excess for purposes of establishing order of priority;

second, to the Company in satisfaction of amounts paid or to be paid to the Insured in settlement of the Insured’s claim;

third, to the Insured in satisfaction of any Single Loss Deductible Amount; and

fourth, to the Insured in satisfaction of any loss not covered under this bond.

Recovery on account of loss of securities as set forth in Condition I.2., or recovery from reinsurance or indemnity of the Company, will not be deemed a recovery as used herein.

In determining the amount of any loss covered under this bond, all Money received by the Insured from any source whatsoever in connection with any matter from which a loss has arisen, including payments and receipts of principal, interest, dividends, commission, and the like, received prior to a loss settlement under this bond, will be deducted from the amount actually paid out, advanced, withdrawn, taken or otherwise lost or stolen.

whenever received, in connection with any matter from which a loss has arisen, will be valued as of the date received and will likewise be deducted from the claimed loss.

ANTI-BUNDLING

If any Insuring Agreement requires that an enumerated type of document be altered or Counterfeit, or contain a signature that is a Forgery, or that it be obtained through trick, artifice, fraud or false pretenses, the alteration, Counterfeit, or signature must be on or of the enumerated document itself, not on or of some other document submitted with, accompanying, or incorporated by reference into, the enumerated document.

LIMIT OF INSURANCE UNDER THIS BOND AND PRIOR INSURANCE

With respect to any Single Loss that is recoverable or recovered in whole or in part under any other bonds or policies issued by the Company to the Insured or to any predecessor in interest of the Insured and canceled or terminated or allowed to expire and in which the period for discovery has not expired at the time any such loss thereunder is discovered, the total liability of the Company under this bond and under such other bonds or policies will not exceed, in the aggregate, the amount carried hereunder on such loss or the amount available to the Insured under such other bonds or policies, as limited by the terms and conditions thereof, for any such loss if the latter amount be the larger.

If the coverage of this bond supersedes in whole or in part the coverage of any other bond or policy of insurance issued by an insurer other than the Company and canceled, terminated or allowed to expire, the Company, with respect to any loss sustained prior to such cancelation, termination or expiration and discovered within the period permitted under such other bond or policy for the discovery of loss thereunder, will be liable under this bond only for that part of such loss covered by this bond as is in excess of the amount recoverable or recovered on account of such loss under such other bond or policy, anything to the contrary in such other bond or policy notwithstanding.

OTHER INSURANCE OR INDEMNITY

Coverage afforded hereunder applies only as excess over any valid and collectible insurance or indemnity obtained by:

the Insured;

anyone other than the Insured;

a Transportation Company;

another entity on whose premises the loss occurred or that employed the person causing the loss; or

the messenger conveying the Property involved.

COVERED PROPERTY

This bond applies to loss of Property:

that is owned by the Insured;

that is held by the Insured in any capacity; or

for which the Insured is responsible,

prior to or at the time of the occurrence of the loss. This bond is for the sole use and benefit of the Insured.

CANCELATION, TERMINATION, CHANGE, OR MODIFICATION

Cancelation

This bond is canceled in its entirety immediately upon receipt by the Company of a Written notice from the Insured or an Investment Adviser of its desire to cancel this bond, provided the Insured or Investment Adviser has provided at least 60 days’ advance Written notice to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Company will notify all other Insureds of the receipt of such a cancelation request from the Insured or Investment Adviser, however the cancelation will not be effective until 60 days after receipt of Written notice by all other Insureds.

This bond is canceled in its entirety 60 days after the receipt by each Insured and the SEC, of a Written notice from the Company of its desire to cancel this bond.

Coverage is canceled as to any Employee, or as to any partner, officer, or employee of any Electronic Data Processor 60 days after the receipt by the Insured and the SEC, of a written notice from the Company of its desire to cancel coverage under this bond as to such person.

Termination

This bond terminates in its entirety immediately upon the Expiration Date set forth in ITEM 2 of the Declarations.

This bond terminates as to any Insured:

(1)

immediately upon the surrender of such Insured’s charter to any governmental authority; or

(2)

immediately upon the taking over of such Insured by a receiver or other liquidator or by any State or Federal official,

whichever occurs first.

Termination of the bond as to any Insured terminates liability for any loss sustained by such Insured that is discovered after the effective date of such termination.

Coverage terminates as to any Employee, or as to any partner, officer, or employee of any Electronic Data Processor:

(1)

as soon as any Director or Officer or Insured not in collusion with such person, learns of any dishonest or fraudulent employment related act, including Larceny or Embezzlement; or

(2)

60 days after any director or officer of the Insured not in collusion with such person, learns of any dishonest or fraudulent non-employment related act,

IVBB-16001 Ed. 01-16	Page 24 of 25
© 2016 The Travelers Indemnity Company. All rights reserved.

including Larceny or Embezzlement, that resulted in a loss of Property in excess of $25,000,

either of which were committed by such person at any time, whether in the employment of the Insured or otherwise, whether or not of the type covered under Insuring Agreement A, against the Insured or any other person or entity, without prejudice to the loss of any Property then in transit in the custody of such person.

However, termination of coverage as to any Employee as set forth in c.(1) and c.(2) of the preceding paragraph, will not apply to any such person provided the Insured has received and retains an original letter signed by a prior insurer reinstating coverage for such individual for whom the Insured discovered had committed a dishonest or fraudulent act prior to the effective date of this bond.

Change or Modification

This bond or any instrument amending or affecting this bond may not be changed or modified orally. No changes in or modification of this bond will be effective unless made by Written endorsement issued to form a part of this bond and including the signature of the Company’s Authorized Representative. When a bond covers only one Insured no change or modification that would adversely affect the rights of the Insured will be effective prior to 60 days after Written notification has been furnished to the SEC by the Insured, Investment Adviser or the Company. If more than one Insured is named under this bond, the Company will give Written notice to each Insured and to the SEC not less than 60 days prior to the effective date of any change or modification that would adversely affect the rights of such Insured.

DISCOVERY PERIOD

At any time prior to the cancelation or termination of this bond in its entirety, whether by the Insured, an Investment Adviser, or the Company, the Insured or an Investment Adviser may give to the Company written notice that it desires under this bond an additional period of 12 months within which to discover loss sustained by the Insured prior to the effective date of such cancelation or termination and will pay an additional premium therefor.

Upon receipt of such notice from the Insured or an Investment Adviser, the Company will give its written consent thereto; provided, that such additional period of time terminates immediately:

on the effective date of any other insurance obtained by the Insured, its successor in business or any other party, replacing in whole or in part the insurance afforded by this bond, whether or not such other insurance provides coverage for loss sustained prior to its effective date; or

upon any takeover of the Insured’s business by any state or federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator acting or appointed for this purpose,

whichever occurs first, and without the necessity of the Company giving notice of such termination. In the event that such additional period of time is terminated, as provided above, the Company will refund on a pro-rata basis, any unearned premium.

The right to purchase such additional period for the discovery of loss may not be exercised by any state or federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator, acting or appointed to take over the Insured’s business for the operation or for the liquidation thereof or for any other purpose.

The Company’s total liability for any loss discovered during such additional period of time is part of, and not in addition to, the Single Loss Limit of Insurance of the Bond Period that terminates immediately preceding the effective date of such additional period.

Each such Company will be liable only for such proportion of any Single Loss in Item 4 of the Declarations under this bond as the amount underwritten by such Company as specified in the Co-Surety Schedule bears to the Single Loss Limit of Insurance of Insuring Agreement A.1, but in no event will any such Company be liable for an amount greater than the amount underwritten by it.

3.	In the absence of a request from any Company to pay premiums directly to it, premiums for this bond may be paid to the Controlling Company designated in the Co-Surety Schedule below for the account of all Companies.

In the absence of a request from any Company that notice of claim and proof of loss be given to or filed directly with it, the giving of such notice to and the filing of such proof with the Controlling Company will be deemed to be in compliance with the conditions of this bond for the giving of notice of loss and the filing of proof of loss, if given and filed in accordance with said conditions.

The Controlling Company may give notice in accordance with the terms of this bond, canceling or terminating this bond in its entirety or as to any Employee, and any notice so given will cancel or terminate the liability of all Companies in their entirety or as to such Employee, as the case may be.

6.	Any Company other than the Controlling Company may give notice in accordance with the terms of the attached bond, canceling or terminating the entire liability of such other Company under this bond or as to any Employee.

In the absence of a request from any Company that notice of cancelation or termination by the Insured of this bond in its entirety be given to or filed directly with such Company, the giving of such notice in accordance with the terms of this bond to the Controlling Company will cancel or terminate the liability of all Companies in their entirety. The Insured may cancel or terminate the entire liability of any Company, other than the Controlling Company, under this bond by giving notice of such cancelation or termination to such other Company, and will send a copy of such notice to the Controlling Company.

8.	In the event of the cancelation or termination of this bond in its entirety, no Company will be liable to the Insured for a greater proportion of any return premium due the Insured than the amount underwritten by such Company bears to the Limit of Insurance for this bond.

In the event of the cancelation or termination of this bond as to any Company, such Company alone will be liable to the Insured for any return premium due the Insured on account of such cancelation or termination. The cancelation or termination of this bond as to any Company other than the Controlling Company will not cancel, terminate, or otherwise affect the liability of the other Companies under this bond.

In such event, the Company will inform each Insured and the SEC that a second notice will be sent at a later date specifying the Company’s exact intention. The notice will inform the parties that, in the meantime, coverage will continue at the same terms, conditions and rates as the expiring bond until the expiration date of the bond or 60 days after the second notice is received by the Insured, whichever is later.

NEW YORK INSURANCE MANDATORY REGULATION 209 ENDORSEMENT

This endorsement changes the following:

Investment Company Bond

It is agreed that:

1.	The following is added to section V. EXCLUSIONS, AA.:

However, this exclusion will not apply to loss caused by an Employee of an Insured located in New York who was convicted of a fraudulent or dishonest act prior to becoming employed by the Insured if the Insured made a determination to hire or retain such Employee utilizing the factors set out in Correction Law Article 23-A. Nevertheless, this exclusion will apply to an Employee, or loss caused by such Employee, for whom there is a bar to employment established by law and the Insured has hired or retained the Employee despite the bar.

2.	The following is added to section VI. CONDITIONS, R. CANCELATION OR TERMINATION, 2. Termination, c.:

Termination of coverage as to any Employee as set forth in c.(1) and c.(2) above will not apply to any such person provided the Insured has received and retains an original letter signed by a prior insurer reinstating coverage for such individual whom the Insured discovered had committed a dishonest or fraudulent act prior to the effective date of this bond.

With respect to any Employee, upon the detection by any Insured that such Employee (hereafter “detected Employee”) has committed any dishonest or fraudulent acts or theft, the Insured must immediately remove the detected Employee from a position that may enable the detected Employee to cause the Insured to suffer a loss by any subsequent dishonest or fraudulent acts or theft. The Insured, within 48 hours of such detection, must notify the Company with full and complete particulars of the detected dishonest or fraudulent acts or theft.

For purposes of this section, detection occurs when any partner, officer, or supervisory Employee of any Insured, who is not in collusion with the detected Employee, becomes aware that the detected Employee has committed any dishonest or fraudulent acts or theft.

Coverage under this bond with respect to such Employee will terminate upon written notice to each Insured and to the Securities and Exchange Commission from the Company of not less than 60 days prior to the effective date of termination specified in such notice.

Termination of coverage as to any Employee of an Insured located in New York as set forth in c.(1) and c.(2) above will also not apply to any such Employee if: (a) the dishonest act was committed by that Employee prior to becoming employed by the Insured, (b) the dishonest act resulted in a conviction of that Employee; and (c) the Insured made a determination to hire or retain the Employee utilizing the factors set out in Correction Law Article 23-A. However, such termination of coverage will apply to an Employee, or loss caused by such Employee, for whom there is a bar to employment established by law and the Insured has hired or retained the Employee despite the bar.

Nothing herein contained shall be held to vary, alter, waive, or extend any of the terms, conditions, exclusions, or limitations of the above-mentioned policy, except as expressly stated herein. This endorsement is part of such policy and incorporated therein.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

JOINT INSURED AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT dated December 1, 1999, as most recently amended as of November 19, 2013, July 11, 2014, April 23, 2015, November 18, 2015, November 16, 2016, November 15, 2018, November 14, 2019, November 12, 2020, November 11, 2021, November 10, 2022, November 15, 2023, and November 12, 2024 among the registered investment companies advised by Gabelli Funds, LLC, Teton Advisors, Inc., and Keeley-Teton Advisors, LLC (together, the “Advisers”) which are listed on Schedule A attached hereto (collectively, the “Funds”).

WHEREAS, each of the Funds is named as an insured in an investment company blanket bond (the “Fidelity Bond”) which is intended to be in full compliance with Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; and

WHEREAS, the Funds desire to enter into an agreement in order to meet the requirements of Rule 17g-1 and to assure that premiums payable with respect to the Fidelity Bond and payments by the Insurer with respect to the Fidelity Bond are allocated in a fair and equitable manner;

Now, THEREFORE, the Funds do hereby agree as follows:

1. Each Fund shall maintain a minimum amount of fidelity insurance one level higher than that specified for its asset size by the table contained in Rule 17g-1(d) (the “Minimum Insurance”). Each Fund shall aggregate the assets of all of its series to calculate the amount of coverage required by Rule 17g-1(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Fund shall be required to increase the amount of its fidelity insurance unless and until the aggregate amount of fidelity insurance maintained by the Funds exceeds the aggregate amount of fidelity insurance the Funds are required to maintain pursuant to the table contained in Rule 17g-1(d) by $2 million or less.

2. The allocation of the premium to each Fund shall be based on the proportionate share of the sum of the premiums that would have been paid if fidelity insurance was purchased separately by the Funds, and will be based upon the relative Minimum Insurance percentages of the Funds as of the quarter ending prior to the beginning of the first month in the period for which the coverage is obtained, subject to paragraph 4 below.

3. Each Fund is guaranteed a minimum coverage amount with access to the remainder of the total coverage of the Fidelity Bond. In the event that any recovery is received under the Fidelity Bond as a result of the loss sustained by two or more Funds, each Fund shall receive an equitable and proportionate share of the recovery, but in no event less than the amount it would have received had it maintained a single insured bond with minimum coverage.

4. Each Fund may, at any time, increase its allocation described in paragraph 2 upon payment of the premium required for such additional insurance provided that the face amount of the Fidelity Bond can increase accordingly or be supplemented by a policy of excess insurance.

5. Any other registered investment company or additional series of such an investment company for which the Advisers or their affiliates serves as investment adviser (“Additional Fund”) may become a party to this Agreement by executing a copy of this Agreement (a copy of which will be furnished to each of the Funds) and by paying the premium for any required increase in the amount of the Fidelity Bond if the underwriter of the Fidelity Bond is willing to add such Additional Fund as an additional insured and increase the amount of total coverage by the amount of the Minimum Insurance required for such Additional Fund by the provisions hereof.

6. The Agreement shall remain in effect for as long as two or more of the Funds (including any Additional Fund) are insured under the terms of the Fidelity Bond. Any Fund shall, however, have the right to terminate, at any time, its participation in the Fidelity Bond and in this Agreement provided that losses incurred prior to such termination shall be governed by the provision of this Agreement and the amount of any return premium to which such Fund shall be entitled will be limited to the amount actually obtained from the underwriter in respect of such termination.
