services:

            Receive  for  acceptance,  orders/payments  for   the

     purchase   of  Shares  and  promptly  deliver  payment   and

     appropriate   documentation  thereof   to   the   authorized

     custodian  of the Fund (the "Custodian").  Upon  receipt  of

     any  check or other instrument drawn or endorsed  to  it  as

     agent  for, or identified as being for the account  of,  the

     Fund, Price Services will process the order as follows:

          -    Examine the check to determine if the check conforms to the

            Funds' acceptance procedures (including certain third-party check

            procedures).  If the check conforms, Price Services will endorse

            the check and include the date of receipt, will process the same

            for payment, and deposit the net amount to the parties agreed

            upon designated bank account prior to such deposit in the

            Custodial account, and will notify the Fund and the Custodian,

            respectively, of such deposits (such notification to be given on

            a daily basis of the total amount deposited to said accounts

            during the prior business day);

          -    Subject to guidelines mutually agreed upon by the Funds and

            Price Services, excess balances, if any, resulting from deposit

            in these designated bank accounts will be invested and the income

            therefrom will be used to offset fees which would otherwise be

            charged to the Funds under this Agreement;

          -    Ensure that any documentation received from Investors is in

            "good order" and all appropriate documentation is received to

            establish an account.

          -    Open a new account, if necessary, and credit the account of

            the investor with the number of Shares to be purchased according

            to the price of the Fund's Shares in effect for purchases made on

            that date, subject to any instructions which the Fund may have

            given to Price Services with respect to acceptance of orders for

            Shares;

          -    Maintain a record of all unpaid purchases and report such

            information to the Fund daily;

            in accordance with the payment procedures mutually agreed upon by

proper allocation of such monies to the Retirement Accounts based
upon instructions received from Retirement Plan participants or
Retirement Plan administrators ("Administrators");

for maximum contribution limit as permitted by 529 Plan;
          -    Process orders received from third-party intermediaries on

            behalf of beneficial Shareholders of omnibus and individual

            accounts in the Funds in accordance with procedures established

            by agreement with such intermediaries. Receipt of orders by such

            third party intermediaries shall be deemed receipt by the Fund

            for purposes of Rule 22c-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940;

            and

          -    Process telephone and computer orders for purchases of Fund

            shares from the Shareholder's bank account (via wire or ACH) to

            the Fund in accordance with procedures mutually agreed upon by

            both parties.

           Upon receipt of funds through the Federal Reserve Wire

     System  that  are designated for purchases  in  Funds  which

     declare  dividends at 12:00 p.m. (or such time as set  forth

     in  the  Fund's  current prospectus), Price  Services  shall

     promptly notify the Fund and the Custodian of such deposit.

     2.   Redemptions

           Receive  for acceptance redemption requests, including

     telephone    redemptions   and   requests   received    from

     Administrators  for distributions to participants  or  their

     designated  beneficiaries or for payment  of  fees  due  the

     Administrator   or  such  other  person,   including   Price

     Services, and deliver the appropriate documentation  thereof

     to  the  Custodian.  Price Services shall receive and  stamp

     with  the  date of receipt, all requests for redemptions  of

     Shares  (including  all certificates  delivered  to  it  for

     redemption)  and shall process said redemption  requests  as

     follows, subject to the provisions of Section 6 hereof:

          -    Examine the redemption request and, for written redemptions,

            the supporting documentation, to determine that the request is in

            good order and all requirements have been met;

          -    Notify the Fund on the next business day of the total number

            of Shares presented and covered by all such requests;

          -    For those Funds that impose redemption fees, calculate the

            fee owed on the redemption in accordance with the guidelines

            established between the Fund and Price Services;

          -    As set forth in the prospectus of the Fund, and in any

            event, on or prior to the seventh (7th) calendar day succeeding

            any such request for redemption, Price Services shall, from funds

            available in the accounts maintained by Price Services as agent

            for the Funds, pay the applicable redemption price in accordance

            with the current prospectus of the Fund, to the investor,

            participant, beneficiary, Administrator or such other person, as

            the case may be;

          -    Instruct custodian to wire redemption proceeds to a

            designated bank account of Price Services.  Subject to guidelines

            mutually agreed upon by the Funds and Price Services, excess

            balances, if any, resulting from deposit in these bank accounts

            will be invested and the income therefrom will be used to offset

            fees which would otherwise be charged to the Funds under this

            Agreement;

          -    If any request for redemption does not comply with the

            Fund's requirements, Price Services shall promptly notify the

            investor of such fact, together with the reason therefore, and

            shall effect such redemption at the price in effect at the time

            of receipt of all appropriate documents;

          -    Make such withholdings as may be required under applicable

            Federal tax laws;

          -    In the event redemption proceeds for the payment of fees are

            to be wired through the Federal Reserve Wire System or via ACH,

            Price Services shall cause such proceeds to be wired in Federal

            funds or via ACH to the bank account designated by Shareholder;

            Process  redemption orders received from third  party

            intermediaries on behalf of beneficial Shareholders in omnibus

            and individual accounts in the Funds in accordance with

            procedures established by agreement with such intermediaries.

            Receipt of redemption orders by such third party intermediaries

            shall be deemed receipt by the Fund for purposes of Rule 22c-1 of

            the Investment Company Act of 1940;

          -     Process distributions and refunds of 529 Plans to

            participants or others, as directed, in accordance with the 529

            Plan's requirements; and

          -    Process periodic redemption orders as authorized by the

            investor in accordance with the periodic withdrawal procedures

            for Systematic Withdrawal Plan ("SWP") and systematic ACH

            redemptions mutually agreed upon by both parties.

          Procedures and requirements for effecting and accepting

     redemption  orders from investors by telephone, Tele*Access,

     computer,  or  written instructions shall be established  by

     mutual  agreement  between  Price  Services  and  the   Fund

     consistent with the Fund's current prospectus.

     3.   Transfers

           Effect  transfers  of Shares by the registered  owners

     thereof   upon  receipt  of  appropriate  instructions   and

     documentation and examine such instructions for  conformance

     with  appropriate  procedures  and  requirements.   In  this

     regard, Price Services, upon receipt of a proper request for

     transfer, including any transfer involving the surrender  of

     certificates  of Shares, is authorized to transfer,  on  the

     records   of  the  Fund,  Shares  of  the  Fund,   including

     cancellation of surrendered certificates, if any, to  credit

     a like amount of Shares to the transferee.

     4.   Confirmations

           Mail all confirmations and statements as well as other

     enclosures requested by the Fund to the shareholders or  529

     plan  participants, and in the case of Retirement  Accounts,

     to   the  participants  and/or  Administrators,  as  may  be

     required by the Funds or by applicable Federal or state law.

          5.   Returned Checks and ACH Debits

           In  order to minimize the risk of loss to the Fund  by

     reason  of  any check being returned unpaid, Price  Services

     will  promptly identify and follow-up on any  check  or  ACH

     debit  returned unpaid.  For items returned, Price  Services

     may  telephone the investor and/or redeposit  the  check  or

     debit  for  collection  or cancel the  purchase,  as  deemed

     appropriate.   Price Services and the Funds  will  establish

     procedures  for the collection of money owed the  Fund  from

     investors  who  have  caused losses due  to  these  returned

     items.

     6.   Redemption of Shares under a Hold

          -    Uncollected Funds.       Shares purchased by personal,

            corporate, governmental check, cashier's, treasurer's, certified

            or official checks or by ACH will be considered uncollected until

            the tenth calendar date following the trade date of the trade

            ("Uncollected Funds");

          -     Good Funds.  Shares purchased by wire transfer or

            automatically through a shareholder's paycheck will be considered

            collected immediately ("Good Funds").  Absent information to the

            contrary (i.e., notification from the payee institution),

            Uncollected Funds will be considered Good Funds on the tenth

            calendar day following trade date.

       -    Redemption of Uncollected Funds

            -    Shareholders making telephone requests for redemption of

               shares purchased with Uncollected Funds will be given two

               options:

                         1.    The  Shareholder will be permitted

                 to  exchange  to another Fund until the  payment

                 is deemed Good Funds; or

                         2.    The  redemption can  be  processed

                 utilizing   the  same  procedures  for   written

                 redemptions described below.

            -    If a written redemption request is made for shares where any

               portion of the payment for said shares is in Uncollected Funds,

               and the request is in good order, Price Services will promptly

               obtain the information relative to the payment necessary to

               determine when the payment becomes Good Funds.  The redemption

               will be processed in accordance with normal procedures, and the

               proceeds will be held until confirmation that the payment is Good

               Funds.  On the seventh (7th) calendar day after trade date, and

               each day thereafter until either confirmation is received or the

               tenth (10th) calendar day Price Services will call the paying

               institution to request confirmation that the check or ACH in

               question has been paid.  On the tenth calendar day after trade

               date, the redemption proceeds will be released, regardless of

               whether confirmation has been received.

       -    Checkwriting Redemptions.

            -    Daily, all checkwriting redemptions $10,000 and over

               reported as Uncollected Funds or insufficient funds will be

               reviewed.  An attempt will be made to contact the shareholder to

               obtain alternative instructions for payment  (through wire,

               exchange, transfer).  Generally by 12:00 p.m. the same day, if

               the matter has not been resolved, the redemption request will be

               rejected and the check returned to the Shareholder.

            -    All checkwriting redemptions under $10,000 reported as

               Uncollected or insufficient funds will be rejected and the check

               returned to the Shareholder.  The Funds and Services may agree to

               contact shareholders presenting checks under $10,000 reported as

               insufficient to obtain alternative instructions for payment.

       -    Confirmations of Available Funds/Bank Account Registrations.

          The Fund expects that situations may develop whereby it would be

          beneficial to determine (i) if a person who has placed an order

          for Shares has sufficient funds in his or her checking account to

          cover the payment for the Shares purchased or (ii) if the bank

          account owner(s) are the same as the Fund Shareholder(s) (i.e.,

          when establishing an account on-line and funding the account via

          ACH).  When this situation occurs, Price Services may call the

          bank in question and request that it confirm that sufficient

          funds to cover the purchase are currently credited to the account

          in question and/or the bank account owner(s) are the same as the

          mutual fund owner(s).  Price Services will maintain written

          documentation or a recording of each telephone call that is made

          under the procedures outlined above.  None of the above

          procedures shall preclude Price Services from inquiring as to the

          status of any check received by it in payment for the Fund's

          Shares as Price Services may deem appropriate or necessary to

          protect both the Fund and Price Services. If a conflict arises

          between Section 2 and this Section 6, Section 6 will govern.

          7.     Dividends,  Distributions  and  Other  Corporate

          Actions

          -    The Fund will promptly inform Price Services of the

            declaration of any dividend, distribution, stock split or any

            other distributions of a similar kind on account of its Capital

            Stock.

          -    Price Services shall act as Dividend Disbursing Agent for

            the Fund, and as such, shall prepare and make income and capital

            gain payments to investors.  As Dividend Disbursing Agent, Price

            Services will on or before the payment date of any such dividend

            or distribution, notify the Custodian of the estimated amount

            required to pay any portion of said dividend or distribution

            which is payable in cash, and the Fund agrees that on or about

            the payment date of such distribution, it shall instruct the

            Custodian to make available to Price Services sufficient funds

            for the cash amount to be paid out.  If an investor is entitled

            to receive additional Shares by virtue of any such distribution

            or dividend, appropriate credits will be made to his or her

            account.

          8.   Abandoned Property and Lost Shareholders

                In accordance with procedures agreed upon by both

          parties, report abandoned property to appropriate state

          and   governmental  authorities  of  the  Fund.   Price

          Services  shall, 90 days prior to the annual  reporting

          of  abandoned  property to each  of  the  states,  make

          reasonable  attempts to locate Shareholders  for  which

          (a) checks, tax forms, statements or confirms have been

          returned;  (b) for which accounts have aged outstanding

          checks;  or (c) accounts with share balances that  have

          been  coded with stop mail and meet the dormancy period

          guidelines specified in the individual states.    Price

          Services  shall  make  reasonable attempts  to  contact

          shareholders  for those accounts that have  significant

          aged  outstanding  checks  and  those  checks  meet   a

          specified dollar threshold.  Price Services shall  also

          comply  with  applicable  securities  regulations  with

          respect to searching for lost shareholders.

F.   Standard of Care/Indemnification

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement:

     1.    Price Services shall not be liable to any Fund for any

     act  or failure to act by it or its agents or subcontractors

     on behalf of the Fund in carrying or attempting to carry out

     the  terms  and provisions of this Agreement provided  Price

     Services  has acted in good faith and without negligence  or

     willful   misconduct   and  selected   and   monitored   the

     performance of its agents and subcontractors with reasonable

     care.

     2.    The  Fund  shall  indemnify and  hold  Price  Services

     harmless  from  and  against  all  losses,  costs,  damages,

     claims,  actions and expenses, including reasonable expenses

     for  legal  counsel,  incurred by Price  Services  resulting

     from:   (i) any action or omission by Price Services or  its

     agents  or subcontractors in the performance of their duties

     hereunder;  (ii)  Price  Services acting  upon  instructions

     believed  by  it to have been executed by a duly  authorized

     officer  of  the Fund; or (iii) Price Services  acting  upon

     information provided by the Fund in form and under  policies

     agreed  to  by Price Services and the Fund.  Price  Services

     shall not be entitled to such indemnification in respect  of

     actions  or  omissions  constituting negligence  or  willful

     misconduct of Price Services or where Price Services has not

     exercised  reasonable care in selecting  or  monitoring  the

     performance of its agents or subcontractors.

     3.    Except  as  provided in Article M of  this  Agreement,

     Price  Services shall indemnify and hold harmless  the  Fund

     from  all  losses,  costs,  damages,  claims,  actions   and

     expenses,  including reasonable expenses for legal  counsel,

     incurred  by  the  Fund  resulting from  the  negligence  or

     willful  misconduct of Price Services or which  result  from

     Price  Services'  failure  to exercise  reasonable  care  in

     selecting  or  monitoring the performance of its  agents  or

     subcontractors.   The  Fund shall not be  entitled  to  such

     indemnification   in   respect  of  actions   or   omissions

     constituting negligence or willful misconduct of  such  Fund

     or  its agents or subcontractors; unless such negligence  or

     misconduct is attributable to Price Services.

     4.    In  determining Price Services' liability, an isolated

     error  or omission will normally not be deemed to constitute

     negligence when it is determined that:

     -   Price Services had in place "appropriate procedures;" and

     -   the employee(s) responsible for the error or omission had

       been reasonably trained and were being appropriately monitored.

     No  evidence or circumstances have been produced to indicate

     that the individual who committed the error or omission  was

     functioning  in  bad  faith,  gross  negligence  or  willful

     misconduct at the time of the incident.

     It  is  understood that Price Services is not  obligated  to

     have  in place separate procedures to prevent each and every

     conceivable   type   of  error  or   omission.    The   term

     "appropriate  procedures" shall mean  procedures  reasonably

     designed  to  prevent and detect errors and  omissions.   In

     determining  the  reasonableness of such procedures,  weight

     will  be given to such factors as are appropriate, including

     the prior occurrence of any similar errors or omissions when

     such  procedures were in place and transfer  agent  industry

     standards in place at the time of the occurrence.

     5.    In  the  event either party is unable to  perform  its

     obligations  under  the terms of this Agreement  because  of

     acts  of God, strikes or other causes reasonably beyond  its

     control,  such party shall not be liable to the other  party

     for  any  loss,  cost,  damage,  claim,  action  or  expense

     resulting  from  such failure to perform or  otherwise  from

     such causes.

     6.    In order that the indemnification provisions contained

     in this Article E shall apply, upon the assertion of a claim

     for  which  either  party may be required to  indemnify  the

     other,  the  party  seeking indemnification  shall  promptly

     notify the other party of such assertion, and shall keep the

     other   party  advised  with  respect  to  all  developments

     concerning  such claim.  The party who may  be  required  to

     indemnify  shall  have  the option to participate  with  the

     party  seeking indemnification in the defense of such claim,

     or  to  defend against said claim in its own name or in  the

     name  of the other party.  The party seeking indemnification

     shall in no case confess any claim or make any compromise in

     any  case  in  which  the other party  may  be  required  to

     indemnify  it  except with the other party's  prior  written

     consent.

     7.    Neither party to this Agreement shall be liable to the

     other party for consequential damages under any provision of

     this Agreement.

G.   Dual Interests

      It  is  understood  that  some person  or  persons  may  be

directors, officers, or shareholders of both the Funds and  Price

Services  (including Price Services' affiliates),  and  that  the

existence of any such dual interest shall not affect the validity

of  this  Agreement  or of any transactions hereunder  except  as

otherwise provided by a specific provision of applicable law.

other agreement to which the Fund and Price Services are or  were

parties  shall be deemed to be delivery for the purposes of  this

Agreement.

     -   As requested by Price Services, the Fund will also furnish

       from time to time the following documents:

     -   Each resolution of the Board of Directors/Trustees of the

       Fund authorizing the original issue of its Shares;

     -   Each Registration Statement filed with the Securities and

       Exchange Commission and amendments and orders thereto in effect

       with respect to the sale of Shares with respect to the Fund;

     -    A  certified copy of each amendment to the Articles of

       Incorporation or Declaration of Trust, and the By-Laws of the

       Fund;

     -     Certified  copies  of  each  vote  of  the  Board  of

       Directors/Trustees authorizing officers to give instructions to

       the Transfer Agent;

     -   Such other documents or opinions which Price Services, in

       its discretion, may reasonably deem necessary or appropriate in

       the proper performance of its duties; and

     -   Copies of new prospectuses issued.

      Price  Services  hereby  agrees to establish  and  maintain

facilities and procedures reasonably acceptable to the  Fund  for

safekeeping  of  stock certificates, check  forms  and  facsimile

signature imprinting devices, if any; and for the preparation  or

use,  and  for keeping account of, such certificates,  forms  and

devices.





I.   References to Price Services

      Each  Fund agrees not to circulate any printed matter which

contains  any  reference  to  Price Services  without  the  prior

approval of Price Services, excepting solely such printed  matter

that merely identifies Price Services as agent of the Fund.   The

Fund  will  submit  printed matter requiring  approval  to  Price

Services  in draft form, allowing sufficient time for  review  by

Price  Services and its legal counsel prior to any  deadline  for

printing.

J.   Compliance with Governmental Rules and Regulations

     Except as otherwise provided in the Agreement and except for

the  accuracy  of  information furnished to  the  Fund  by  Price

Services,   each  Fund  assumes  full  responsibility   for   the

preparation,  contents and distribution of its  prospectuses  and

compliance with all applicable requirements of the Act,  the  '34

Act,  the  '33 Act, and any other laws, rules and regulations  of

governmental  authorities  having  jurisdiction  over  the  Fund.

Price  Services shall be responsible for complying with all laws,

rules   and   regulations  of  governmental  authorities   having

jurisdiction over transfer agents and their activities.

K.   Ownership of Software and Related Material

      All  computer programs, magnetic tapes, written  procedures

and  similar items purchased and/or developed and used  by  Price

Services in performance of the Agreement shall be the property of

Price Services and will not become the property of the Fund.

L.   Quality Service Standards

      Price Services and the Fund may from time to time agree  to

certain  quality  service standards, as well  as  incentives  and

penalties with respect to Price Services' hereunder.

M.   As Of Transactions

     For purposes of this Article M, the term "Transaction" shall

mean  any  single  or  "related transaction" (as  defined  below)

involving   the  purchase  or  redemption  of  Shares  (including

exchanges) that is processed at a time other than the time of the

computation of the Fund's net asset value per Share next computed

after receipt of any such transaction order by Price Services due

to   an   act   or   omission   of  Price   Services.    "As   Of

Processing"  refers to the processing of these Transactions.   If

more than one Transaction ("Related Transaction") in the Fund  is

caused by or occurs as a result of the same act or omission, such

transactions shall be aggregated with other transactions  in  the

Fund and be considered as one Transaction.

     -   Reporting

       Price Services shall:

                 1.     Utilize   a   system  to   identify   all

          Transactions, and shall compute the net effect of  such

          Transactions  upon  the Fund on a  daily,  monthly  and

          rolling  365-day basis. The monthly and rolling 365-day

          periods are hereafter referred to as "Cumulative."

                2.    Supply  to the Fund, from time to  time  as

          mutually   agreed   upon,  a  report  summarizing   the

          Transactions and the daily and Cumulative  net  effects

          of   such  Transactions  both  in  terms  of  aggregate

          dilution  and  loss ("Dilution") or gain  and  negative

          dilution  ("Gain")  experienced by the  Fund,  and  the

          impact  such Gain or Dilution has had upon  the  Fund's

          net asset value per Share.

                3.   With respect to any Transaction which causes

          Dilution  to  the Fund of $100,000 or more, immediately

          provide   the  Fund:  (i)  a  report  identifying   the

          Transaction and the Dilution resulting therefrom,  (ii)

          the  reason such Transaction was processed as described

          above, and (iii) the action that Price Services has  or

          intends to take to prevent the reoccurrence of such  as

          of processing ("Report").

     -   Liability

                     1.    It will be the normal practice of  the

          Funds not to hold Price Services liable with respect to

          any Transaction that causes Dilution to any single Fund

          of  less  than $25,000.  Price Services will,  however,

          closely  monitor for each Fund the daily and Cumulative

          Gain/Dilution  that is caused by Transactions  of  less

          than $25,000.  When the Cumulative Dilution to any Fund

          exceeds  3/10  of  1%  per share,  Price  Services,  in

          consultation  with  counsel  to  the  Fund,  will  make

          appropriate inquiry to determine whether it should take

          any remedial action.  Price Services will report to the

          Board  of Directors/Trustees of the Fund ("Board")  any

          action it has taken.

               2.   Where a Transaction causes Dilution to a Fund

          greater  than $25,000 ("Significant Transaction"),  but

          less  than  $100,000, Price Services will  review  with

          Counsel  to the Fund the circumstances surrounding  the

          underlying   Transaction  to  determine   whether   the

          Transaction was caused by or occurred as a result of  a

          negligent act or omission by Price Services.  If it  is

          determined  that  the  Dilution  is  the  result  of  a

          negligent  action or omission by Price Services,  Price

          Services   and  outside  counsel  for  the  Fund   will

          negotiate settlement.  Significant Transactions greater

          than $25,000 will be reported to the Audit Committee at

          its   annual  meeting  (unless  the  settlement   fully

          compensates   the   Fund  for   any   Dilution).    Any

          Significant  Transaction, however, causing Dilution  in

          excess  of the lesser of $100,000 or a penny per  share

          will be promptly reported to the Board and resolved  at

          the   next  scheduled  Board  Meeting.  Settlement  for

          Significant  Transactions causing Dilution of  $100,000

          or  more will not be entered into until approved by the

          Board.    The   factors  to  consider  in  making   any

          determination regarding the settlement of a Significant

          Transaction would include but not be limited to:

          -   Procedures and controls adopted by Price Services to prevent

            As Of Processing;

          -   Whether such procedures and controls were being followed at

            the time of the Significant Transaction;

          -   The absolute and relative volume of all transactions

            processed by Price Services on the day of the Significant

            Transaction;

          -   The number of Transactions processed by Price Services

            during prior relevant periods, and the net Dilution/Gain as a

            result of all such Transactions to the Fund and to all other

            Price Funds;

          -   The prior response of Price Services to recommendations made

            by the Funds regarding improvement to Price Services' As Of

            Processing procedures.

               3.   In determining Price Services' liability with

          respect to a Significant Transaction, an isolated error

          or  omission will normally not be deemed to  constitute

          negligence when it is determined that:

          -   Price Services had in place "appropriate procedures."

          -   the employee(s) responsible for the error or omission had

            been reasonably trained and were being appropriately monitored;

            and

          -   No evidence or circumstances have been produced to indicate

            that the individual who committed the error or omission was

            functioning in bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct

            at the time of the incident.

          It  is  understood that Price Services is not obligated

          to  have  in place separate procedures to prevent  each

          and  every conceivable type of error or omission.   The

          term  "appropriate  procedures" shall  mean  procedures

          reasonably  designed to prevent and detect  errors  and

          omissions.  In determining the reasonableness  of  such

          procedures, weight will be given to such factors as are

          appropriate,  including  the prior  occurrence  of  any

          similar  errors or omissions when such procedures  were

          in place and transfer agent industry standards in place

          at the time of the occurrence.

     -   As Of Transactions - Intermediaries

       If  an  As Of Transaction is performed by an intermediary,

       which  is  designated by the Fund to received  orders  for

       Fund  Shares, Price Services shall cause such intermediary

       to  promptly reimburse the Fund for any Dilution caused by

       such  As Of Transaction; provided, however, Price Services

       shall  not  be obligated to seek reimbursement  from  such

       intermediary if the Dilution is less than $100.





N.   Term and Termination of Agreement

     -   This Agreement shall run for a period of one (1) year from

       the date first written above and will be renewed from year to

       year thereafter unless terminated by either party as provided

       hereunder.

     -    This Agreement may be terminated by the Fund upon  one

       hundred twenty (120) days' written notice to Price Services; and

       by Price Services, upon three hundred sixty-five (365) days'

       writing notice to the Fund.

     -    Upon  termination hereof, the Fund shall pay to  Price

       Services such compensation as may be due as of the date of such

       termination, and shall likewise reimburse for out-of-pocket

       expenses related to its services hereunder.

O.   Notice

       Any  notice  as  required  by  this  Agreement  shall   be

sufficiently given (i) when sent to an authorized person  of  the

other  party at the address of such party set forth above  or  at

such other address as such party may from time to time specify in

writing  to the other party; or (ii) as otherwise agreed upon  by

appropriate officers of the parties hereto.

P.   Assignment

      Neither  this  Agreement  nor  any  rights  or  obligations

hereunder may be assigned either voluntarily or involuntarily, by

operation of law or otherwise, by either party without the  prior

written  consent  of  the other party, provided  this  shall  not

preclude   Price   Services  from  employing  such   agents   and

subcontractors  as  it  deems  appropriate  to  carry   out   its

obligations set forth hereunder.

Q.   Amendment/Interpretive Provisions

      The  parties  by mutual written agreement  may  amend  this

Agreement  at  any  time.  In addition, in  connection  with  the

operation  of  this Agreement, Price Services and  the  Fund  may

agree from time to time on such provisions interpretive of or  in

addition  to  the provisions of this Agreement as  may  in  their

joint  opinion  be  consistent with the  general  tenor  of  this

Agreement.  Any such interpretive or additional provisions are to

be  signed  by  all  parties  and annexed  hereto,  but  no  such

provision shall contravene any applicable Federal or state law or

regulation and no such interpretive or additional provision shall

be deemed to be an amendment of this Agreement.

R.   Further Assurances

      Each  party agrees to perform such further acts and execute

such  further  documents  as  are  necessary  to  effectuate  the

purposes hereof.

S.   Maryland Law to Apply

     This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions thereof

interpreted under and in accordance with the laws of Maryland.

T.   Merger of Agreement

      This  Agreement, including the attached Appendices and Schedules

whether oral or written.

U.   Counterparts

      This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto on any

number  of  counterparts,  and all  of  said  counterparts  taken

together  shall  be  deemed  to  constitute  one  and  the   same

instruments.

V.   The Parties

     All references herein to "the Fund" are to each of the Funds

listed  on  Appendix  A individually, as if this  Agreement  were

between such individual Fund and Price Services.  In the case  of

a  series Fund or trust, all references to "the Fund" are to  the

individual series or portfolio of such Fund or trust, or to  such

Fund or trust on behalf of the individual series or portfolio, as

appropriate.   The "Fund" also includes any T. Rowe  Price  Funds

that  may  be established after the execution of this  Agreement.

Any reference in this Agreement to "the parties" shall mean Price

Services  and such other individual Fund as to which  the  matter

pertains.

W.    Directors,  Trustees  and  Shareholders  and  Massachusetts

Business Trust

      It  is  understood and is expressly stipulated that neither

the  holders of Shares in the Fund nor any Directors or  Trustees

of the Fund shall be personally liable hereunder.

      With respect to any Fund which is a party to this Agreement

and  which  is organized as a Massachusetts business  trust,  the

term  "Fund" means and refers to the trustees from time  to  time

serving  under  the  applicable trust agreement  (Declaration  of

Trust)  of  such Trust as the same may be amended  from  time  to

time.   It  is expressly agreed that the obligations of any  such

Trust  hereunder shall not be binding upon any of  the  trustees,

shareholders,  nominees, officers, agents  or  employees  of  the

Trust, personally, but bind only the trust property of the Trust,

as  provided  in  the Declaration of Trust  of  the  Trust.   The

execution  and delivery of this Agreement has been authorized  by

the  trustees and signed by an authorized officer of  the  Trust,

acting  as such, and neither such authorization by such  Trustees

nor  such execution and delivery by such officer shall be  deemed

to  have been made by any of them, but shall bind only the  trust

property of the Trust as provided in its Declaration of Trust.

X.   Captions

      The  captions in the Agreement are included for convenience

of  reference  only  and in no way define or  limit  any  of  the

effect.
