Issuance of Shares.

a. instructions requesting the issuance,

b. a copy of a resolution of the Board authorizing the issuance, and

c. necessary funds for the payment of any original issue tax applicable to such Shares.

The responsibility of DTAC for Customer’s state registration status is solely limited to the reporting of transactions to the Customer, and DTAC shall have no obligation, when recording the issuance of Shares, to monitor the issuance of such Shares or to take cognizance of any laws relating to the issue or sale of such Shares, which functions shall be the sole responsibility of the Customer, its distributor or other agent.

Transfer of Shares.

Transfers of Shares of Customer shall be registered on the shareholder records maintained by DTAC. In registering transfers of Shares, DTAC may rely upon the Uniform Commercial Code as in

effect in the State of Delaware or any other statutes that, in the opinion of DTAC’s legal counsel, protect DTAC and the Customer from liability arising from:

a. not requiring complete documentation;

b. registering a transfer without an adverse claim inquiry;

c. delaying registration for purposes of such inquiry; or

d. refusing registration whenever an adverse claim requires such refusal.

As transfer agent, DTAC will be responsible for delivery to the transferor and transferee of such documentation as is required by the Uniform Commercial Code.

Purchase Orders.

Shares shall be issued in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus after DTAC or its agent receives either:

a. an instruction directing investment in Customer and confirmation of payment receipt by Customer or custodian; or

b. the information required for purchases pursuant to a selected dealer agreement, processing organization agreement, or a similar contract with a financial intermediary.

Distribution Eligibility.

Shares issued in Customer after receipt of a completed purchase order shall be eligible to receive distributions of the Customer at the time specified in the prospectus pursuant to which the Shares are offered.

Lost Shareholders.

DTAC shall perform such services as are required in order to comply with Rules 17a-24 and 17Ad-17 (the “Lost Shareholder Rules”) under the 1934 Act, including, but not limited to, those set forth below. DTAC may, in its sole discretion, use the services of a third party to perform some of or all such services.

a. documentation of search policies and procedures;

b. execution of required searches;

c. tracking results and maintaining data sufficient to comply with the Lost Shareholder Rules; and

d. preparation and submission of data required under the Lost Shareholder Rules.

Anti-Money Laundering (“AML”) Delegation.

The Customer hereby delegates to DTAC certain AML duties under this Agreement, as permitted by law and in accordance with the Customer’s Anti-Money Laundering Policies and Procedures as may be amended from time to time. Such duties delegated to DTAC include procedures reasonably designed to prevent and detect money laundering activities and to ensure that Customer can have a reasonable belief that it knows the identity of each person or entity opening an account with the Customer. DTAC’s procedures will include, as appropriate, procedures to assist the Customer(s) to:

· detect and report suspicious activities;

· comply with “know your customer” requirements;

· monitor high-risk accounts; and

· maintain required records.

DTAC shall provide for proper supervision and training of its personnel. With respect to assisting the Customer with its Customer Identification Program (“CIP”) designed to ensure the identity of any person opening a new

Account with a prospective shareholder (“Prospect”), DTAC will assist the Customer(s) through the use of the following:

· risk-based procedures to verify the identity of each Customer to the extent reasonable and practicable, such that the Customer may have a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of each Customer;

· before opening an account, obtain a Prospect’s name, date of birth (for an individual), address, and identification number (tax identification number, passport number and country of issuance, or other document evidencing nationality or residents and bearing a photograph or other safeguards);

· procedures to verify the identity of a Prospect within a reasonable time after the account is opened;

· procedures for maintenance of records relating to Customer identification and supporting the verification; and

· procedures to determine whether the Customer’s name appears on any list of known or suspected terrorists or terrorist organizations issued by any federal government agency and designated as such by the Department of the Treasury in consultation with the federal functional regulators, within a reasonable period of time after the account is opened.

For purposes of verifying the identity of a Prospect, DTAC may rely on documents, so long as, based on that information, DTAC can form a reasonable belief that it knows the identity of the Customer, including:

· an individual’s unexpired government-issued identification evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard, (such as a driver’s license or passport); or

· documents showing the existence of an entity, such as articles of incorporation, a government-issued business license, a partnership agreement, or trust instrument.

To the extent that the Customer’s identity cannot be verified by relying on documents, other methods may be used by DTAC, including, (i) contacting a Prospect; (ii) independently verifying the Customer’s identity through the comparison of information provided by the Customer with information obtained from a consumer reporting agency, public database, or other source; (iii) checking references with other financial institutions; and (iv) obtaining a financial statement.

In the event that DTAC is not able to verify the identity of a Prospect sufficiently that it can form a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of a Prospect, then DTAC may, as appropriate:

· not open an Account for the Prospect;

· apply limited terms under which a Prospect may use an account until the Prospect’s identity is verified;

· close an Account, after attempts to verify a Prospect’s identity have failed; or

· assist the Customer in filing a Suspicious Activity Report in accordance with applicable law and regulation, regarding the Prospect.

Each Customer represents and agrees that it will provide Customers with adequate notice that the Customer is requesting information to verify their identities. The notice will be included in the application or the prospectus, or a document accompanying the application or prospectus provided it is reasonably designed to ensure that the customer views or otherwise receives the notice before opening the account.

In consideration of the performance of the duties by DTAC pursuant to this Section, the Customer agrees to pay DTAC for the reasonable administrative expenses that may be associated with such additional duties.

Anti-Identity Theft Delegation.

To the extent that a Shareholder has covered Accounts that allow redemption proceeds to go to third parties, DTAC will assume Anti-Identity Theft monitoring duties for the Customer under this

Agreement, pursuant to legal requirements. Any out of pocket expenses occurred in this regard are due and payable by the Customer.

Rule 22c-2 Compliance.

Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act requires that a fund’s principal underwriter or transfer agent enter into a shareholder information agreement with any financial intermediary or its agent where it, through itself or its agent, purchases or redeems shares directly from a fund, its principal underwriter or transfer agent, or through a registered clearing agency. The Customer shall ensure that its principal underwriter enters into such agreements, which permits DTAC as transfer agent to request information from such financial intermediaries to ensure that the Customer’s procedures are being followed with respect to market timing and, where applicable, early redemption fees. The Customer’s procedures in this regard would trigger the information requests, under certain conditions, with respect to said financial intermediaries’ omnibus accounts in the respective Customer.

Processing through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (the “NSCC”).

If applicable, DTAC will: (i) process accounts through Networking and the purchase, redemption, transfer and exchange of shares in such accounts through Fund/SERV (Networking and Fund/SERV being programs operated by the NSCC on behalf of NSCC’s participants, including the Customer), in accordance with, instructions transmitted to and received by DTAC by transmission from NSCC on behalf of broker-dealers and banks which have been established by, or in accordance with the instructions of authorized persons, as hereinafter defined on the dealer file maintained by DTAC; (ii) issue instructions to Customer’s custodian for the settlement of transactions between the Customer and NSCC (acting on behalf of its broker-dealer and bank participants); (iii) provide account and transaction information from the affected Customer’s records on an appropriate computer system in accordance with NSCC’s Networking and Customer/SERV rules for those broker-dealers; and (iv) maintain Shareholder accounts through Networking.

Transfer Agency Records.

DTAC shall maintain the following shareholder account information:

• name, address and United States Tax Identification or Social Security number;
• number of Shares held;
• historical information regarding the account of each shareholder, including dividends and distributions paid and the date and price for all transactions on a shareholder’s account (as reported by the paying agent or Customer);
• any stop or restraining order placed against a shareholder’s account;
• any correspondence relating to the current maintenance of a shareholder’s account;
• information with respect to withholdings; and
• any information required in order for DTAC to perform any calculations by this Agreement.

DTAC may from time to time adopt new procedures, or modify existing procedures, in order to carry out its Transfer Agency Services. Any modification of the Transfer Agency Services provided by DTAC as set forth in this Exhibit will be effective upon providing Customer three (3) business days’ notice.
