General< /div>

Each Reorganization has been structured with the intention that it qualify for Federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Code. This means that, in the opinion of counsel, no gain or loss will be recognized by a shareholder of an Acquired Fund for Federal income tax purposes as a result of a Reorganization.

As a condition to the closing of each Reorganization, each of the Acquired Funds and Acquiring Funds will receive an opinion of Briggs and Morgan, Professional Association ("Briggs and Morgan"), counsel to the Acquired Funds, substantially to the effect that, among other things, for Federal income tax purposes, upon consummation of each Reorganization (i) no gain or loss will be recognized by an Acquired Fund or an Acquiring Fund as a result of its respective Reorganization, (ii) no gain or loss will be recognized by a shareholder of an Acquired Fund upon his or her receipt of Corresponding Shares in the respective Reorganization solely in exchange for his or her shares of such Acquired Fund, (iii) an Acquired Fund and an Acquiring Fund each will be a "party to a reorganization" under Section 368(b) of the Code, (iv) the holding period of the assets of an Acquired Fund acquired by the respective Acquiring Fund will include the period during which such assets were held by such Acquired Fund, (v) the holding period for Corresponding Shares of an Acquiring Fund received by each shareholder of the respective Acquired Fund in exchange for his or her shares of such Acquired Fund will include the period during which such shareholder held shares of such Acqui red Fund (provided such Acquired Fund shares were held as capital assets on the date of the exchange), (vi) immediately after a Reorganization, the tax basis of the Corresponding Shares received by shareholders of the respective Acquired Fund in such Reorganization will be equal, in the aggregate, to the tax basis

of the shares of such Acquired Fund surrendered in exchange therefore and (vii) the Acquiring Fund`s tax basis in the assets that the Acquiring Fund receives from the Acquired Fund should be the same as the Acquired Fund`s tax basis in such assets immediately prior to such exchange. Briggs and Morgan`s opinion will be based upon certain representations made by the parties to the Reorganizations.

An opinion of counsel doe s not have the effect of a private letter ruling from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and is not binding on the IRS or any court. If a Reorganization is consummated but fails to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code, the Reorganization would be treated as a taxable sale of assets followed by a taxable liquidation of the respective Acquired Fund, and Acquired Fund shareholders would recognize a taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between their basis in the Acquired Fund shares and the fair market value of the Corresponding Shares received.

To the extent an Acquiring Fund has unrealized capital gains at the time of the respective Reorganization, the respective Acquired Fund`s shareholders may incur taxable gains in the year that such Acquiring Fund realizes and distributes those gains. This will be true notwithstanding that the unrealized gains were reflected in the price of such Acquiring Fund`s shares at the time they were exchanged for assets of such Acquired Fund in the respective Reorganization. Conversely, shareholders of an Acquiring Fund would share in unrealized capital gains of the respective Acquired Fund after the respective Reorganization and bear a tax consequence on the subsequent realization of such gains.

To the extent that an Acquired Fund has loss carryforwards at the time of the respective Reorganization, Acquired Fund shareholders may not be able to benefit from such loss carryforwards after the Reorganizations.

Prior to the closing of the Reorganizations, each Acquired Fund wil l declare a distribution to shareholders that, together with all previous distributions, will have the effect of distributing to shareholders all of its investment company taxable income (computed without regard to the deduction for dividends paid) and net capital gains, including those realized on disposition of portfolio securities in connection with the Reorganization (after reduction by any available capital loss carryforwards), if any, through the closing of the Reorganization. Such distributions will be taxable to shareholders.

Shareholders should consult their tax advisers regarding the effect of the Reorganizations in light of their individual circumstances. As the foregoing relates only to Federal income tax consequences, shareholders also should consult their tax advisers as to the non-United States, state, local and other tax consequences of the Reorganizations.

Status as a Regulated Investment Company

All Funds have elected and qualified to be taxed as regulated investment companies under Sections 851-855 of the Code, and after the Reorganizations, the Acquiring Funds intend to continue to qualify as regulated investment companies. An Acquired Fund`s existence as a series of Bremer Investment Funds, Inc. will be terminated as soon as practicable following the consummation of the applicable Reorganization.

Capitalization

The following table sets forth the capitalization of each Acquired Fund and each Acquiring Fund as of July 31, 2006, and the capitalization of each Combined Fund, on a pro forma basis, as if the Reorganizations had occurred on that date.

COMPARISON OF THE FUNDS

Investment Policies

The principal i nvestment objectives and investment strategies of each Fund are set forth above under "Summary." The Funds` investment strategies are further described below.

Bremer Growth Stock Fund

The Growth Stock Fund invests substantially all, but at least 65%, of its total assets in common stocks, convertible securities, and other equity securities of companies which typically have an equity market capitalization of at least $1.0 billion. Due to the exposure to equities, the Fund`s net asset value may be subject to greater fluctuations than a portfolio containing a majority of fixed income securities.

The Growth Stock Fund invests primarily in common stocks chosen on the basis of traditional research techniques, including the assessment of corporate growth prospects, as well as risk and volatility characteristics. The Growth Stock Fund may invest in common stocks, preferred stocks, warrants and put or call options on stocks.

The Growth Stock Fund may also invest in the securities of foreign companies which are traded on U.S. securities exchanges or on the OTC market in depository receipt form. Such foreign corporate securities may present greater risks in the form of nationalization, confiscation, domestic marketability or other national or international political events.

Price Blue Chip Growth Fund

The fund will normally invest in at least 80% of net assets in the common stocks of large and medium-sized blue chip growth companies. These are firms that, in the view of T. Rowe Price, are well established in their industries and have the potential for above average earnings growth. The fund focuses on companies with leading market position, seasoned management, and strong financial fundamentals. The fund`s investment approach reflects its belief that solid company fundamentals (with emphasis on strong growth in earnings per share or operating cash flow) combined with a positive industry outlook will ultimately reward investors with strong investment performance. Some of the companies the fund targets will have good prospects for dividend growth.

In pursuing its investment objective, the fund`s management has the discretion to purchase some securities that do not meet its normal invest ment criteria, as described above, when it perceives an unusual opportunity for gain. These special situations might arise when the fund`s management believes a security could increase in value for a variety of reasons, including a change in management, an extraordinary corporate event, or a temporary imbalance in the supply of or demand for the securities.

While the fund will invest most assets in U.S. common stocks, other securities may also be purchased, including foreign stocks, futures, and options, in keeping wi th fund objectives.

The fund may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into more promising opportunities.

Bremer Bond Fund

Under normal market conditions, The Bond Fund invests at least 80% of its total assets in investment grade debt securities, as rated at the time of purchase. If the rating of a security is reduced or discontinued after purchase, the Bond Fund is not obligated to sell the security, but may consider doing so. The Bond Fund will invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies; obligations issued or guaranteed by foreign governments and obligations of domestic or foreign corporations (rated Baa or better by Moody`s, BBB or better by S&P), or unrated if determined by the Investment Adviser to be of comparable quality); and mortgage-backed and other asset-backed securities. Mortgage-b acked securities in which the Bond Fund may invest include mortgage pass-through certificates and multiple class pass-through certificates, real estate mortgage investment conduit pass-through certificates and collateralized mortgage obligations.

The obligations in which the Bond Fund invests will have various maturities depending upon current and forecasted levels of interest rates and the shape of the yield curve. Under normal market conditions, the Bond Fund generally attempts to maintain a weighted average effecti ve maturity of one to six years and an average effective duration of one to five years. Duration is a measure of the expected life of a fixed income security having greater precision than the concept of "term to maturity." Duration incorporates a bond`s yield, coupon interest payments, final maturity and call features into one measure. The Bond Fund`s duration is generally shorter than its average maturity, which is only a measure of when final payment is due. Duration is one of the fundamental tools used by the Investment Adviser in selecting securities for the Bond Fund.

Price New Income Fund

In seeking income and capital preservation, the fund pursues a total return strategy. Active management of the portfolio can result in bonds being sold at gains or losses. However, over the long term, the fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing primarily in income-producing securities that possess what it believes are favorable total return (income plus changes in principal) characteristics.

< div style="text-align:Left;margin-left:0.0";margin-right:0.0";text-indent:0.5";width:100%">The fund will invest at least 80% of the fund`s total assets in income-producing securities, which may include U.S. government and agency obligations, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, corporate bonds, foreign securities, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), and others, including, on occasion, equities.

Eighty percent of the debt securities purchased by the fund will be rated investment grade (AAA, AA, A, BBB, or equivalent) by each of the major credit rating agencies ( Standard & Poor`s, Moody`s, and Fitch IBCA, Inc.) that have assigned a rating to the security. If the security is unrated, it must be deemed to be of investment-grade quality by T. Rowe Price. Up to 5% of total assets may be invested in "split-rated securities," or those rated

investment grade by at least one rating agency but below investment grade by others. In addition, the fund may invest up to 5% of total assets in securities that have not received an investment grade rating by any major credit rating agency.

The fund has considerable flexibility in seeking high yields. There are no maturity restrictions, so the fund can purchase longer-term bonds, which tend to have higher yields than shorter-term issues. However, the portfolio`s weighted average maturity is expected to be between four and 15 years. In addition, when there is a large yield difference between the various quality levels, the fund may move down the credit scale and purchase lower-rated bonds with higher yields. When the difference is small or the outlook warrants, the fund may concentrate investments in higher-rated issues.

The fund may also invest in other securities, including futures, options, and swaps, in keeping with its objective.

Directors and Officers

The Price Funds are governed by the Price Boards. The Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth Fund, Inc. currently consists of nine individuals, seven of whom are independent of T. Rowe Price ("Price Independent Directors"). The Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price New Income Fund, Inc. currently consists of nine individuals, seven of whom are Price Independent Directors.

The Price Boards are responsible for the overall supervision of the Price Funds and perform various duties imposed on directors of investment companies by the Investment Company Act. Directors and officers of the Price Funds are also directors/trustees and officers of some or all of the other investment companies managed, administered or advised by T. Rowe Price, and distributed by Price Investment Services and other affiliates. The Price Boards elect the Acquiring Funds` officers. For additional information regarding the Price Boards see "Management of the Funds" in the Acquiring Funds Statement.

Dividend Distribution and Account Policies

The following is a summary of the dividend distribution and account policies of each of the Funds and is qualified in its entirety by the more complete informat ion contained in the Acquired Funds Prospectus, Acquiring Funds Prospectus, Acquired Funds Statement and Acquiring Funds Statement.

Valuation of Fund Shares. The net asset value per share for each Fund and class is determined once daily as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4 p.m. Eastern Time) by dividing the net assets (the value of all assets less liabilities) of each class by the number of its shares outstanding. See "Price of

Shares" in the Acquired Funds Prospectus and "Pricing Shares and Receiving Sale Proceeds" in the Acquiring Funds Statement.

Buy and Sell Prices. When you buy shares of a Fund, you pay the net asset value. When you sell shares of a Fund, you receive the net asset value minus any applicable redemption fees.

Dividends. The Bremer Growth Stock Fund and the Price Blue Ship Growth Fund both declare and pay dividends, if any, annually, generally in December. The Bremer Bond Fund and the Price New Income Fund both declare dividends, if any, daily and pay monthly. Each of the Funds distributes capital gains, if any, at least annually. See "Dividends, Distributions and Tax Consequences" in the Acquired Funds Prospectus and "Dividends and Other Distributions" and "Capital Gain Payments" in the Acquiring Funds Prospectus.

Dividend Reinvestments. The policy relating to dividend reinvestments is substantially the same for all Funds. Unless cash payment is requested all dividends and distributions, if any, will be reinvested. See "Dividends, Distributions and Tax Consequences" in the Acquired Funds Prospectus and "Dividends and Other Distributions" in the Acquiring Funds Prospectus.

Payment Following Redemption. Each Fund will normally send the proceeds from a redemption on the next business day, but may delay payment for up to seven days. Payment also may be delayed if the shares to be redeemed were purchased by a check that has not cleared. See "Redeeming Shares" in the Acquired Funds Prospectus and "Pricing Shares and Receiving Sale Proceeds" in the Acquiring Funds Prospectus.

Performance

General

The following tables provide performance information for shares of the Funds for the periods indicated. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.

Average annual total return is determined in accordance with a formula specified by the Commission . Average annual total return is computed by finding the average annual compounded rates of return for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods or for the lesser included periods of effectiveness. The calculation assumes that:

(a)All dividends and distributions are reinvested at net asset value; and

(b)Complete redemption occurs at the end of the 1-, 3-, 5-, or 10-year periods or fractional portion thereof with all nonrecurring charges deducted accordingly.

Shareholder Rights

< div style="text-align:Left;margin-left:0.0";margin-right:0.0";text-indent:0.5";width:100%">Shareholder rights are substantially the same in all of the Funds. Each full share and fractional share of a Fund entitles the shareholder to receive a proportional interest in the respective Fund`s capital gain distributions and to cast one vote per share, with fractional shares voting proportionally, on certain Fund matters, including the election of directors or trustees, changes in fundamental policies, or approval of changes in the Fund`s investment advisory agreement. Corresponding Shares issued in the Reorganizations will be fully paid and nonassessable and will have no preemptive rights. In the event of the liquidation of a Fund, shareholders of such Fund are entitled to share pro rata in the net assets of such Fund available for distribution to shareholders.

The Funds are not required to hold annual meetings and do not intend to do so unless the Investment Company Act requires an election of directors by shareholders. Under the Bremer Investment Funds, Inc.`s Bylaws, shareholders representing at least 10% of the outstanding shares entitled to vote may order a special meeting if they wish on any matter on which they are entitled to vote. Under each Price Corporation`s By-Laws, special meetings of shareholders may be ordered on the written request of shareholders entitled to cast (i) in the case of a meeting for the purpose of removing a director, at least 10% and (ii) in the case of a meeting for any other purpose, at least 25%, in each case of all the votes entitled to be cast at such a meeting.

Bremer Investment Funds, Inc. and each of the Price Corporatio ns is a Maryland corporation. A shareholder of a corporation generally has no personal liability for the acts or obligations of a corporation.

A shareholder vote is required by Maryland law to amend the charter of a Maryland corporation, or to dissolve a Maryland corporation or to dissolve a Maryland corporation.

Rowe Price Group, Inc., each a Maryland corporation. T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan Services is not the beneficial owner of these shares. Such shares are held of record by T.

At July 31, 2006, the Directors and Executive Officers of the Price Funds as a group (10 persons) owned an aggregate of less than 1% of the outstanding shares of each Acquiring Fund.

Voting Rights and Required Vote

Each share of an Acquired Fund is entitled to one vote, with fractional shares voting proportionally. Shareholders of each Acquired Fund vote separately on whether to approve the Plan. Approval of the Plan with respect to one Acquired Fund is not dependent on approval of the Plan with respect to the other Acquired Fund. Approval of a Plan by an Acquired Fund requires a Majority Shar eholder Vote.

Broker-dealer firms holding shares of any of the Acquired Funds in "street name" for the benefit of their customers and clients will request the instructions of such customers and clients on how to vote their shares before the Meeting. Broker-dealer firms will not be permitted to grant voting authority without instructions with respect to the approval of the Plans. Properly executed proxies that are returned but that are marked "abstain" or with respect to which a broker-dealer has declined to vote on an y proposal ("broker non-votes") will be counted as present for the purposes of determining a quorum at the Meeting. Assuming the presence required by a Majority Shareholder Vote, abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote against approval of the applicable Plan.

If, by the time scheduled for the Meeting, sufficient votes in favor of approval of a Plan are not received from the shareholders of an Acquired Fund, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of such Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies from shareholders. An affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of the applicable Acquired Fund present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Meeting will suffice for any such adjournment. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of any such adjournment if they determine that adjournment and additional solicitation are reasonable and in the interests of the shareholders of such Acquired Fund.

The votes of shareholders of the Acquiring Funds are not being s olicited by this Proxy Statement and Prospectus and are not required to carry out the respective Reorganizations.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The expenses of preparation, printing and mailing of the enclosed form of proxy, the accompanying Notice and this Proxy Statement and Prospectus ("proxy expenses") will be borne by Bremer Trust or an affiliate thereof. The proxy expenses are currently estimat ed to be approximately $___________ in the aggregate.

Bremer Trust or an affiliate thereof will reimburse banks, brokers and others for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy solicitation materials to beneficial owners of the Acquired Funds and will reimburse certain officers or employees that it may employ for their reasonable expenses in assisting in the solicitation of proxies from such beneficial owners.

In order to obtain the necessary quorums at the Meetings, supplementary solicitation may be made by mail, telephone, telegraph or personal interview by officers of the Acquired Funds. The cost of soliciting proxies will be borne by Bremer Trust or an affiliate thereof.

This Proxy Statement and Prospectus does not contain all of the information set forth in the registration statements and the exhibits relating thereto which Bremer Funds and Price Funds have filed on their behalf with the Commission und er the Securities Act and the Investment Company Act, to which reference is hereby made.

The Funds are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Investment Company Act, and in accordance therewith file reports and other information with the Commission. Proxy material, reports and other information filed by the Funds (or by Bremer Investment Funds, Inc. on behalf of the Acquired Funds or the applicable Price Corporation on behalf of the Acquiring Funds) can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549. Copies of such materials also can be obtained by mail from the Public Reference Branch, Office of Consumer Affairs and Information Services, Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. 20549, at prescribed rates. The Commission maintains a web site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains the Statements

of Additional Information and Prospectuses of the Acquired Funds and Acquiring Funds, as well as other material incorporated by reference and other information regarding the Funds.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no material legal proceedings to which any of the Funds is a party.

LEGAL OPINIONS

Certain legal matters in connection with the issuance of Corresponding Shares have been passed upon for the Acquiring Funds by Henry H. Hopkins, Esquire. Certain tax matters in connection with the Reorganizations will be passed upon for the Acquired Funds by Briggs and Morgan, Professional Association, 2200 IDS Center, 80 South Eighth Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402, counsel for the Acquired Funds.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

A shareholder proposal intended to be presented at any subsequent meeting of shareholders of an Acquired Fund must be received by such Acquired Fund in a reasonable time before the solicitation by the Bremer Board relating to such meeting is to be made in order to be considered in such Acquired Fund`s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the meeting. If Proposals No. 1 and 2 are approved at the Meeting, there will likely not be an y future shareholder meetings of the Acquired Funds.

Briggs and Morgan, shall deliver an opinion to the Acquired Fund, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Acquired Fund, substantially to the effect that, for Federal income tax purposes, (i) the transfer of the Assets to the Acquiring Fund in return solely for the Shares as provided for in the Agreement will constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and assuming that such transfer, issuance and assumption qualifies as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund will each be deemed to be a "party to the reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code; (ii) in accordance with Sections 357 and 361 of the Code, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquired Fund as a result of the Asset transfer solely in return for the Shares or on the distribution (whether actual or constructive) of the Shares to the Acquired Fund shareholders as provided for in the Agreement; (iii) under Section 1032 of the Code, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquiring Fund upon the receipt of the Assets in return for the Shares as provided for in the Agreement; (iv) in accordance with Section 354(a)(1) of the Code, no gain or loss will be recognized by the shareholders of the Acquired Fund on the receipt (whether actual or constructive) of Shares in return for their shares of the Acquired Fund; (v) in accordance with Section 362(b) of the Co de, the tax basis of the Assets in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will be the same as the tax basis of such Assets in the hands of the Acquired Fund immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization; (vi) in accordance with Section 358 of the Code, immediately after the Reorganization, the tax basis of the Shares received (whether actually or constructively) by the shareholders of the Acquired Fund in the Reorganization will be equal, in the aggregate, to the tax basis of the shares of the Acquired Fund surrendered in return therefor; (vii) in accordance with Section 1223 of the Code, a shareholder's holding period for the Corresponding Shares will be determined by including the period for which such shareholder held the shares of the Acquired Fund exchanged therefor, provided, that the Acquired Fund shares were held as a capital asset at the time of the exchange; (viii) in accordance with Section 1223 of the Code, the Acquiring Fund's holding period with respect to the Assets acquired by it will include the period for which such Assets were held by the Acquired Fund; and (ix) in accordance with Section 381(a) of the Code and regulations thereunder, the Acquiring Fund will succeed to and take into account, subject to certain limitations, certain tax attributes of the Acquired Fund, such as earnings and profits, capital loss carryovers and method of accounting;

STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

_________________, 2006

This Statement of Additional Information (the "SAI") relates to the proposed reorganization (each a "Reorganization") of each of the T. Rowe Price Blue Chip Growth Fund, Inc. and the T. Rowe Price New Income Fund, Inc. (the "Acquiring Funds).

This SAI contains information which may be of interest to shareholders relating to each Reorganization, but which is not included in the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus dated _____________, 2006 (the "Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus") of the fu nds. As described in the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus, a Reorganization would involve the transfer of substantially all the assets of the Acquired Funds in exchange for shares of the respective Acquiring Fund. Each Acquired Fund would distribute the Acquiring Fund shares it receives to its shareholders in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund.

This SAI is not a prospectus, and should be read in conjunction with the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus. This SAI and the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Copies of the Combined Proxy Statement/Prospectus are available upon request and without charge by writing to the Acquiring Fund at 100 East Pratt Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202, or by calling 1-___-___-____.

PART C

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 15. Indemnification

The Registrant maintains comprehensive Errors and Omissions and Officers and Dir ectors insurance policies written by ICI Mutual. These policies provide coverage for T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("Manager"), and its subsidiaries and affiliates as listed in Item 26 of this Registration Statement (with the exception of the T. Rowe Price Associates Foundation, Inc.), and all other investment companies in the T. Rowe Price family of mutual funds. In addition to the corporate insureds, the policies also cover the officers, directors, and employees of the Manager, its subsidiaries, and affiliates. The premium is allocated among the named corporate insureds in accordance with the provisions of Rule 17d1(d)(7) under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

General. The Charter of the Corporation provides that to the fullest extent permitted by Maryland or federal law, no director or officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or the holders of Shares for money damages and each director and officer shall be indemnified by the Corporation; provided, however, that nothing therein shall be deemed to protect any director or officer of the Corporation against any liability to the Corporation of the holders of Shares to which such director or officer would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office.

Article X, Section 10.01 of the Registrant`s By-Laws provides as follows:

Section 10.01. Indemnification and Payment of Expenses in Advance: The Corporation shall indemnify any individual ("Indemnitee") who is a present or former director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or who is or has been serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, who, by reason of his position was, is, or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative (hereinafter collectively referred to as a "Proceeding") against any judgments, penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses (including attorneys` fees) incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding, to the fullest extent that such indemnification may be lawful under Maryland law. The Corporation shall pay any reasonable expenses so incurred by such Indemnitee in defending a Proceeding in advance of the final disposition thereof to the fullest extent that such advance payment may be lawful under Maryland law. Subject to any applicable limitations and requirements set forth in the Corporation`s Articles of Incorporation and in these By-Laws, any payment of indemnification or advance of expenses shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Maryland law.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall protect or purport to protect any Indemnitee against any liability to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his office ("Disabling Conduct").

Anything in this Article X to the contrary notwithstanding, no indemnification shall be made by the Corporation to any Indemnitee unless:

(a)there is a final decision on the merits by a court or other body before whom the Proceeding was brought that the Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct; or

(b)in the absence of such a decision, there is a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that the Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct, which determination shall be made by:

(i)the vote of a majority of a quorum of directors who are neither "interested persons" of the Corporation as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act, nor parties to the Proceeding; or

(ii)an independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

Anything in this Article X to the contrary notwithstanding, any advance of expenses by the Corporation to any Indemnitee shall be made only upon the undertaking by such Indemnitee to repay the advance unless it is ultimately determined that such Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification as above provided, and only if one of the following conditions is met:

(a)the Indemnitee provides a security for his undertaking; or

(b)the Corporation shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances; or

(c)there is a determination, based on a review of readily available facts, that there is reason to believe that the Indemnitee will ultimately be found entitled to indemnification, which determination shall be made by:

(i)a majority of a quorum of directors who are neither "interested persons" of the Corporation as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act, nor parties to the Proceeding; or

(ii)an independent legal counsel in a written opinion.

Section 10.02. Insurance of Officers, Directors, Employees, and Agents. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable Maryland law and by Section 17(h) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as from time to time amended, the Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the Corporation, or who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in or arising out of his position, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify him against such liabil ity.

Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Re gistrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Except as may arise from the Custodian`s own negligence or willful misconduct or the negligence or willful misconduct of a sub-custodian or agent, the Custodian shall be without liability to the Fund for any loss, liability, claim or expense resulting from or caused by: (i) events or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the Custodian or any sub-custodian or Securities System or any agent or nominee of any of the foregoing, including, without limitation, the interruption, suspension or restriction of trading on or the closure of any securities market, power or other mechanical or technological failures or interruptions, computer viruses or communications disruptions ; (ii) errors by the Fund or its duly-appointed investment advisor in their instructions to the Custodian provided such instructions have been given in accordance with this Agreement; (iii) the insolvency of or acts or omissions by a Securities System; (iv) any delay or failure of any broker, agent or intermediary, central bank or other commercially prevalent payment or clearing system to deliver to the Custodian`s sub-custodian or agent securities purchased or in the remittance or payment made in connection with securities sold; (v) any delay or failure of any company, corporation or other body in charge of registering or transferring securities in the name of the Custodian, the Fund, the Custodian`s sub-custodians, nominees or agents, or any consequential losses arising out of such delay or failure to transfer such securities, including non-receipt of bonus, dividends and rights and other accretions or benefits; (vi) delays or inability to perform its duties due to any disorder in market infrastructure with respect to any particular security or Securities System; and (vii) changes to any provision of any present or future law or regulation or order of the United States, or any state thereof, or of any other country or political subdivision thereof, or any order of any court of competent jurisdiction.

If the Fund requires the Custodian to take any action with respect to investments, which action involves the payment of money or which action may, in the reasonable opinion of the Custodian, result in the Custodian or its nominee assigned to the Fund being liable for the payment of money or incurring liability of some other form, the Fund, as a prerequisite to requiring the Custodian to take such action, shall provide indemnity to the Custodian in an amount and form satisfactory to it.

Except as may arise from the Custodian`s own negligence or willful misconduct, or the negligence or willful misconduct of a subcustodian or agent appointed by the Custodian, the Fund agrees to indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, charges, reasonable counsel fees, payments and liabilities which may be asserted against the Custodian (i) acting in accordance with any Proper Instruction, or (ii) for any acts or omissions of Chase Manhattan Bank N.A.

EX-99.9 CUST CONTRCT 4 globalcustagr.htm
GLOBAL CUSTODY AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT is effective January 3, 1994, and is between THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, N.A. (the "Bank") and EACH OF THE ENTITIES LISTED ON SCHEDULE A HERETO, Individually and Separately (each individually, the "Customer").
1.Customer Accounts.
The Bank agrees to establish and maintain the following accounts ("Accounts"):
(a)A custody account in the name of the Customer ("Custody Account") for any and all stocks, shares, bonds, debentures, notes, mortgages or other obligations for the payment of money, bullion, coin and any certificates, receipts, warrants or other instruments representing rights to receive, purchase or subscribe for the same or evidencing or representing any other rights or interests therein and other similar property whether certificated or uncertificated as may be received by the Bank or its Subcustodian (as defined in Section 3) for the account of the Customer ("Securities"); and
(b)A deposit account in the name of the Customer ("Deposit Account") for any and all cash in any currency received by the Bank or its Subcustodian for the account of the Customer, which cash shall not be subject to withdrawal by draft or check.
The Customer warrants its authority to: 1) deposit the cash and Securities ("Assets") received in the Accounts and 2) give Instructions (as defined in Section 11) concerning the Accounts. The Bank may deliver securities of the same class in place of t hose deposited in the Custody Account.
Upon written agreement between the Bank and the Customer, additional Accounts may be established and separately accounted for as additional Accounts under the terms of this Agreement.
2.Maintenance of Securities and Cash at Bank and Subcustodian Locations.
Unless Instructions specifically require another location acceptable to the Bank:
(a)Securities will be held in the country or other jurisdiction in which the principal trading market for such Securities is located, where such Securities are to be presented for payment or where such Securities are acquired; and
(b)Cash will be credited to an account in a country or other jurisdiction in which such cash may be legally deposited or is the legal currency for the payment of public or private debts.
Cash may be held pursuant to Instructions in either interest or noninterest bearing accounts as may be available for the particular currency. To the extent Instructions are issued and the Bank can comply with such Instructions, the Bank is authorized to maintain cash balances on deposit for the Customer with itself or one of its affiliates at such reasonable rates of interest as may from time to time be paid on such accounts, or in noninterest bearing accounts as the Customer may direct, if acceptable to the Bank.
If the Customer wishes to have any of its Assets held in the custody of an institution other than the established Subcustodians as defined in Section 3 (or their securities depositories), such arrangement must be authorized by a written agreement, signed by the Bank and the Customer.
3.Subcustodians and Securities Depositories.
The Bank may act under this Agreement through the subcustodians listed in Schedule B of this Agreement with which the Bank has entered into subcustodial agreements ("Subcustodians"). The Customer authorizes the Bank to hold Assets in the Accounts in accounts which the Bank has established with one or more of its branches or Subcustodians. The Bank and Subcustodians are authorized to hold any of the Securities in their account with any securities depository in which they participate.
The Bank reserves the right to add new, replace or remove Subcustodians. T he Customer will be given reasonable notice by the Bank of any amendment to Schedule B. Upon request by the Customer, the Bank will identify the name, address and principal place of business of any Subcustodian of the Customer's Assets and the name and address of the governmental agency or other regulatory authority that supervises or regulates such Subcustodian.
4.Use of Subcustodian.
(a)The Bank will identify such Assets on its books as belonging to the Customer.
(b)A Subcustodian will hold such Assets together with assets belonging to other customers of the Bank in accounts identified on such Subcustodian's books as special custody accounts for the exclusive benefit of customers of the Bank.
(c)Any Assets in the Accounts held by a Subcustodian will be subject only to the instructions of the Bank or its agent. Any Securities held in a securities depository for the account of a Subcustodian will be subject only to the instructions of such Subcustodian.
(d)Any agreement the Bank enters into with a Subcustodian for holding its customer's assets shall provide that such assets will not be subject to any right, charge, security interest, lien or claim of any kind in favor of such Subcustodian or its creditors except for a claim for payment for safe custody or administration, and that the beneficial ownership of such assets will be freely transferable without the payment of money or value other than for safe custody or administration.

The foregoing shall not apply to the extent of any special agreement or arrangement made by the Customer with any particular Subcustodian.
5.Deposit Account Transactions.
(a)The Bank or its Subcustodians will make payments from the Deposit Account upon receipt of Instructions which include all information required by the Bank.
(b)In the event that any payment to be made under this Section 5 exceeds the funds available in the Deposit Account, the Bank, in its discretion, may advance the Customer such excess amount which shall be deemed a loan payable on demand, bearing i nterest at the rate customarily charged by the Bank on similar loans.
(c)If the Bank credits the Deposit Account on a payable date, or at any time prior to actual collection and reconciliation to the Deposit Account, with interest, dividends, redemptions or any other amount due, the Customer will promptly return any such amount upon oral or written notification: (i) that such amount has not been received in the ordinary course of business or (ii) that such amount was incorrectly credited. If the Customer does not promptly return any amount upon such notification, the Bank shall be entitled, upon oral or written notification to the Customer, to reverse such credit by debiting the Deposit Account for the amount previously credited. The Bank or its Subcustodian shall have no duty or obligation to institute legal proceedings, file a claim or a proof of claim in any insolvency proceeding or take any other action with respect to the collection of such amount, but may act for the Customer upon Instructions after consultation with the Customer.
6.Custody Account Transactions.
(a)Securities will be transferred, exchanged or delivered by the Bank or its Subcustodian upon receipt by the Bank of Instructions which include all information required by the Bank. Settlement and payment for Securities received for, and delivery of Securities out of, the Custody Account may be made in accordance with the customary or established securities trading or securities processing practices and procedures in the jurisdiction or market in which the transaction occurs, including, without limitation, delivery of Securities to a purchaser, dealer or their agents against a receipt with the expectation of receiving later payment and free delivery. Delivery of Securities out of the Custody Account may also be made in any manner specifically required by Instructions acceptable to the Bank.
(b)The Bank, in its discretion, may credit or debit the Accounts on a contractual settlement date with cash or Securities with respect to any sale, exchange or purchase of Securities. Otherwise, such transactions will be credited or debited to the Accounts on the date cash or Securities are actually received by the Bank and reconciled to the Account.
(i)The Bank may reverse credits or debits made to the Accounts in its discretion if the related transaction fails to settle within a reasonable period, determined by the Bank in its discretion, after the contractual settlement date for the related transaction.
(ii)If any Securities delivered pursuant to this Section 6 are returned by the recipient thereof, the Bank may reverse the credits and debits of the particular transaction at any time.
7.Actions of the Bank.

The Bank shall follow Instructions received regarding assets held in the Accounts. However, until it receives Instructions to the contrary, the Bank will:

(a)Present for payment any Securities which are called, redeemed or retired or otherwise become payable and all coupons and other income items which call for payment upon presentation, to the extent that the Bank or Subcustodian is actually aware of such opportunities.

(b)Execute in the name of the Customer such ownership and other certificates as may be required to obtain payments in respect of Sec urities.

(c)Exchange interim receipts or temporary Securities for definitive Securities.

(d)Appoint brokers and agents for any transaction involving the Securities, including, without limitation, affiliates of the Bank or any Subcustodian.

(e)Issue statements to the Customer, at times mutually agreed upon, identifying the Assets in the Accounts.

The Bank will send the Customer an advice or notification of any transfers of Assets to or from the Accounts. Such statements, advices or notifications shall indicate the identity of the entity having custody of the Assets. Unless the Customer sends the Bank a written exception or objection to any Bank statement within ninety (90) days of receipt, the Customer shall be deemed to have approved such statement. The Bank shall, to the extent permitted by law, be released, relieved and discharged with respect to all matters set forth in such statement or reasonably implied therefrom as though it had been settled by the decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in an action where the Customer and all persons having or claiming an interest in the Customer or the Customer's Accounts were parties if: (a) the Customer has failed to provide a written exception or objection to any Bank statement within ninety (90) days of receipt and where the Cu stomer's failure to so provide a written exception or objection within such ninety (90) day period has limited the Bank's (i) access to the records, materials and other information required to investigate the Customer's exception or objection, and (ii) ability to recover from third parties any amounts for which the Bank may become liable in connection with such exception or objection, or (b) where the Customer has otherwise explicitly approved any such statement.

< /p>

All collections of funds or other property paid or distributed in respect of Securities in the Custody Account shall be made at the risk of the Customer. The Bank shall have no liability for any loss occasioned by delay in the actual receipt of notice by the Bank or by its Subcustodians of any payment, redemption or other transaction regarding Securities in the Custody Account in respect of which the Bank has agreed to take any action under this Agreement.
8.Corporate Actions; Proxies.
Whenever the Bank receives information concerning the Securities which requires discretionary action by the beneficial owner of the Securities (other than a proxy), such as subscription rights, bonus issues, stock repurchase plans and rights offerings, or legal notices or other material intended to be transmitted to securities holders ("Corporate Actions"), the Bank will give the Customer notice of such Corporate A ctions to the extent that the Bank's central corporate actions department has actual knowledge of a Corporate Action in time to notify its customers.
When a rights entitlement or a fractional interest resulting from a rights issue, stock dividend, stock split or similar Corporate Action is received which bears an expiration date, the Bank will endeavor to obtain Instructions from the Customer or its Authorized Person, but if Instructions are not received in time for the Bank to take timely action, or actual notice of such Corporate Action was received too late to seek Instructions, the Bank is authorized to sell such rights entitlement or fractional interest and to credit the Deposit Account with the proceeds or take any other action it deems, in good faith, to be appropriate in which case it shall be held harmless for any such action.
The Bank will deliver proxies to the Customer or its designated agent pursuant to special arrangements which may have been agreed to in writing. Such proxies shall be executed in the appropriate nominee name relating to Securities in the Custody Account registered in the name of such nominee but without indicating the manner in which such proxies are to be voted; and where bearer Securities are involved, proxies will be delivered in accordance with Instructions.
9.Nominees.
Securities which are ordinarily held in registered form may be registered in a nominee name of the Bank, Subcustodian or securities depository, as the case may be. The Bank may without notice to the Customer cause any such Securities to cease to be registered in the name of any such nominee and to be registered in the name of the Customer. In the event that any Securities registered in a nominee name are called for partial redemption by the issuer, the Bank may allot the called portion to the respective beneficial holders of such class of security pro rata or in any other manner that is fair, equitable and practicable. The Customer agrees to hold the Bank, Subcustodians, and their respective nominees harmless from any liability arising directly or indirectly from their status as a mere record holder of Securities in the Custody Account.
10.Authorized Persons.
As used in this Agreement, the term "Authorized Person" means employees or agents including investment managers as have been designated by written notice from the Customer or its designated agent to act on behalf of the Customer under this Agreement. Such persons shall continue to be Authorized Persons until such time as the Bank receives Instructions from the Customer or its designated agent that any such employee or agent is no longer an Authorized Person.
11.Instructions.
The term "Instructions" means instructions of any Authorized Person received by the Bank, via telephone, telex, TWX, facsimile transmission, bank wire or other teleprocess or electronic instruction or trade information system acceptable to the Bank which the Bank believes in good faith to have been given by Authorized Persons or which are transmitted with proper testing or authentication pursuant to terms and conditions which the Bank may specify. Unless otherwise expressly provided, all Instructions shall continue in full force and effect until canceled or superseded.
Any Instructions delivered to the Bank by telephone shall promptly thereafter be confirmed in writing by an Authorized Person (which confirmation may bear the facsimile signature of such Person), but the Customer will hold the Bank harmless for the failure of an Authorized Person to send such confirmation in writing, the failure of such confirmation to conform to the telephone instructions received or the Bank's failure to produce such confirmation at any subsequent time. The Bank may electronically record any Instructions given by telephone, and any other telephone discussions with respect to the Custody Account. The Customer shall be responsible for safeguarding any testkeys, identification codes or other security devices which the Bank shall make available to < font style="font-size:9.0pt;" face="Times New Roman" color="Black">the Customer or its Authorized Persons.
12.Standard of Care; Liabilities.
(a)The Bank shall be responsible for the performance of only such duties as are set forth in this Agreement or expressly contain ed in Instructions which are consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:
(i)The Bank will use reasonable care with respect to its obligations under this Agreement and the safekeeping of Assets. The Bank shall be liable to the Customer for any loss which shall occur as the result of the failure of a Subcustodian to exercise reasonable care with respect to the safekeeping of such Assets to the same extent that the Bank would be liable to the Customer if the Bank were holding such Assets in New York. In the event of any loss to the Customer by reason of the failure of the Bank or its Subcustodian to utilize reasonable care, the Bank shall be liable to the Customer only to the extent of the Customer's direct damages, and shall in no event be liable for any special or consequential damages.
< p>

(ii)The Bank will not be responsible for any act, omission, default or for the solvency of any broker or agent which it or a Subcustodian appoints unless such appointment was made negligently or in bad faith or for any loss due to the negligent act of such broker or agent except to the extent that such broker or agent (other than a Subcustodian) performs in a negligent manner which is the cause of the loss to the Customer and the Bank failed to exercise reasonable care in monitoring such broker's or agent's performance where Customer has requested and Bank has agreed to accept such monitoring responsibility.
(iii)The Bank shall be indemnified by, and without liability to the Customer for any action taken or omitted by the Bank whether pursuant to Instructions or otherwise within the scope of this Agreement if such act or omission was in good faith, without negligence. In performing its obligations under this Agreement, the Bank may rely on the genuineness of any document which it believes in good faith to have been validly executed.
(iv)The Customer agrees to pay for and hold the Bank harmless from any liability or loss resulting from the imposition or assessment of any taxes or other governmental charges, and any related expenses with respect to income from or Assets in the Accounts, except to the extent that the Bank has fa iled to exercise reasonable care in performing any obligations which the Bank may have agreed to assume (in addition to those stated in this Agreement) with respect to taxes and such failure by the Bank is the direct cause of such imposition or assessment of such taxes, charges or expenses.
(v)The Bank shall be entitled to rely, and may act, upon the advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the Customer) on all legal matters and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice; provided, that the Bank gives (to the extent practicable) prior notice to Customer of Bank's intention to so seek advice of counsel and an opportunity for consultation with Customer on the proposed contact with counsel.
(vi)The Bank represents and warrants that it currently maintain a banker's blanket bond which provides standard fidelity and non-negligent loss coverage with respect to the Securities and Cash which may be held by Subcustodians pursuant to this Agreement. The Bank agrees that if at any time it for any reason discontinues such coverage, it shall immediately give sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the Customer. The Bank need not maintain any insurance for the benefit of the Customer.
(vii) Without limiting the foregoing, the Bank shall not be liable for any loss which results from: (1) the general risk of investing, or (2) investing or holding Assets in a particular country including, but not limited to, losses resulting from nationalization, expropriation or other governmental actions; regulation of the banking or securities industry; currency restrictions, devaluations or fluctuations; and market conditions which prevent the orderly execution of securities transactions or affect the value of Assets.
(viii)Neither party shall be liable to the other for any loss due to forces beyond their control including, but not limited to strikes or work stoppages, acts of war or terrorism, insurrection, revolution, nuclear fusion, fission or radiation, or acts of God.
(b)Consistent with and without limiting the first paragraph of this Section 12, it is specifically acknowledged that the Bank shall have no duty or responsib ility to:
(i)question Instructions or make any suggestions to the Customer or an Authorized Person regarding such Instructions;
(ii)supervise or make recommendations with respect to investments or the retention of Securities;
(iii)advise the Customer or an Authorized Person regarding any default in the payment of principal or income of any security other than as provided in Section 5(c) of this Agreement;
(iv)evaluate or report to the Customer or an Authorized Person regarding the financial condition of any broker, agent (other than a Subcustodian) or other party to which Securities are delivered or payments are made pursuant to this Agreement;
(v)review or reconcile trade confirmations received from brokers. The Customer or its Authorized Persons (as defined in Section 10) issuing Instructions shall bear any responsibility to review such confirmations against Instructions issued to and statements issued by the Bank.
(c)The Customer authorizes the Bank to act under this Agreement notwithstanding that the Bank or any of its divisions or affiliates may have a material interest in a transaction, or circumstances are such that the Bank may have a potential conflict of duty or interest including the fact that the Bank or any of its affiliates may provide brokerage services to other customers, act as financial advisor to the issuer of Securities, act as a lender to the issuer of Securities, act in the same transaction as agent for more than one customer, have a material interest in the issue of Securities, or earn profits from any of the activities listed herein.

13.Fees and Expenses.
The Customer agrees to pay the Bank for its services under this Agreement such amount as may be agreed upon in writing, together with the Bank's reasonable outofpocket or incidental expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees. The Bank shall have a lien on and is authorized to charge any Accounts of the Customer for any amount owing to the Bank under any provision of this Agreement upon notice to the Customer.
14.Miscellaneous.

The Bank may establish rules or limitations concerning any foreign exchange facility made available. In all c ases where the Bank, its subsidiaries, affiliates or Subcustodians enter into a foreign exchange contract related to Accounts, the terms and conditions of the then current foreign exchange contract of the Bank, its subsidiary, affiliate or Subcustodian and, to the extent not inconsistent, this Agreement shall apply to such transaction.
(b)Certification of Residency, etc. The Customer certif ies that it is a resident of the United States and agrees to notify the Bank of any changes in residency. The Bank may rely upon this certification or the certification of such other facts as may be required to administer the Bank's obligations under this Agreement. The Customer will indemnify the Bank against all losses, liability, claims or demands arising directly or indirectly from any such certifications.
(c)Access to Records. The Bank shall allow the Customer's independent public accountants, officers and advisers reasonable access to the records of the Bank relating to the Assets as is required in connection with their examination of books and records pertaining to the Customer's affairs.

The foregoing analysis will be provided to Customer at Bank`s Website.

(b) Bank shall exercise reasonable care, prudence and diligence in performing the requirements set forth in Section 16(a) above.

(c) Based on the information available to it in the exercise of diligence, Bank shall determine the eligibility under rule 17f-7 of each depository before including it on Appendix 1-B hereto and shall promptly advise Customer if any Eligible Securities Depository ceases to be eligible. (Eligible Securities Depositories used by Bank as of the date hereof are set forth in Appendix 1-B he reto, and as the same may be amended on notice to Customer from time to time.)

(d) Bank need not commence performing any of the duties set forth in this Section 16 prior to March 31, 2001, but Bank shall advise Customer if it is prepared to commence such duties prior to such date as to particular depositories.

7. Add the following language to the end of Section 3 of the Agreement:

The term "securities depository" as used herein when referring to a securities depository located outside the U.S. shall mean an "Eligible Securities Depository" which, in turn, shall have the same meaning as in rule 17f-7(b)(1)(i)-(vi) as the same may be amended from time to time, or that has otherwise been made exempt by an SEC exemptive order, rule or other appropriate SEC action, except that prior to the compliance date with rule 17f-7 for a particular securities depository the term "securities depositories" shall be as defined in (a)(1)(ii)-(iii) of the 1997 amendments to rule 17f-5. The term "securities depos itory" as used herein when referring to a securities depository located in the U.S. shall mean a "securities depository" as defined in SEC rule 17f-4(a).
