GENERAL AGREEMENTS

ADDITIONAL OFFICES OR EMPLOYEES—CONSOLIDATION OR MERGER—NOTICE

Except as provided in paragraph 2 below, this Bond shall apply to any additional office(s) established by the Insured during the Bond Period and to all Employees during the Bond Period, without the need to give notice thereof or pay additional premiums to the Underwriter for the Bond Period.

If during the Bond Period an Insured Investment Company shall merge or consolidate with an institution in which such Insured is the surviving entity, or purchase substantially all the assets or capital stock of another institution, or acquire or create a separate investment portfolio, and shall within sixty (60) days notify the Underwriter thereof, then this Bond shall automatically apply to the Property and Employees resulting from such merger, consolidation, acquisition or creation from the date thereof; provided, that the Underwriter may make such coverage contingent upon the payment of an additional premium.

B. WARRANTY

No statement made by or on behalf of the Insured, whether contained in the Application or otherwise, shall be deemed to be an absolute warranty, but only a warranty that such statement is true to the best of the knowledge of the person responsible for such statement.

Blanket Bond (05/23)

C. COURT COSTS AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES

The Underwriter will indemnify the Insured against court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred and paid by the Insured in defense of any legal proceeding brought against the Insured seeking recovery for any loss which, if established against the Insured, would constitute a loss covered under the terms of this Bond; provided, however, that with respect to Insuring Agreement A this indemnity shall apply only in the event that:

an Employee admits to having committed or is adjudicated to have committed a Dishonest or Fraudulent Act which caused the loss; or

in the absence of such an admission or adjudication, an arbitrator or arbitrators acceptable to the Insured and the Underwriter concludes, after a review of an agreed statement of facts, that an Employee has committed a Dishonest or Fraudulent Act which caused the loss.

The Insured shall promptly give notice to the Underwriter of any such legal proceeding and upon request shall furnish the Underwriter with copies of all pleadings and other papers therein. At the Underwriter’s election the Insured shall permit the Underwriter to conduct the defense of such legal proceeding in the Insured’s name, through attorneys of the Underwriter’s selection. In such event, the Insured shall give all reasonable information and assistance which the Underwriter shall deem necessary to the proper defense of such legal proceeding.

If the amount of the Insured’s liability or alleged liability in any such legal proceeding is greater than the amount which the Insured would be entitled to recover under this Bond (other than pursuant to this General Agreement C), or if a Deductible Amount is applicable, or both, the indemnity liability of the Underwriter under this General Agreement C is limited to the proportion of court costs and attorneys’ fees incurred and paid by the Insured or by the Underwriter that the amount which the Insured would be entitled to recover under this Bond (other than pursuant to this General Agreement C) bears to the sum of such amount plus the amount which the Insured is not entitled to recover. Such indemnity shall be in addition to the Limit of Liability for the applicable Insuring Agreement.

D. INTERPRETATION

This Bond shall be interpreted with due regard to the purpose of fidelity bonding under Rule 17g-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (i.e., to protect innocent third parties from harm) and to the structure of the investment management industry (in which a loss of Property resulting from a cause described in any Insuring Agreement ordinarily gives rise to a potential legal liability on the part of the Insured), such that the term “loss” as used herein shall include an Insured’s legal liability for direct compensatory damages resulting directly from a misappropriation, or measurable diminution in value, of Property.

SECTION 3. ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS

Upon payment to the Insured hereunder for any loss, the Underwriter shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the Insured’s rights and claims in connection with such loss; provided, however, that the Underwriter shall not be subrogated to any such rights or claims one named Insured under this Bond may have against another named Insured under this Bond. At the request of the Underwriter, the Insured shall execute all assignments or other documents and take such action as the Underwriter may deem necessary or desirable to secure and perfect such rights and claims, including the execution of documents necessary to enable the Underwriter to bring suit in the name of the Insured.

Blanket Bond (05/23)

Assignment of any rights or claims under this Bond shall not bind the Underwriter without the Underwriter’s written consent.

SECTION 4. LOSS—NOTICE—PROOF—LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

This Bond is for the use and benefit only of the Insured and the Underwriter shall not be liable hereunder to anyone other than the Insured. As soon as practicable and not more than sixty (60) days after discovery of any loss covered hereunder, the Insured shall give the Underwriter written notice thereof and, as soon as practicable and within one year after such discovery, shall also furnish to the Underwriter affirmative proof of loss with full particulars. The Underwriter may extend the sixty-day notice period or the one-year proof of loss period if the Insured requests an extension and shows good cause therefor.

The Insured shall provide the Underwriter with such information, assistance, and cooperation as the Underwriter may reasonably request.

See also General Agreement C (Court Costs and Attorneys’ Fees).

The Underwriter shall not be liable hereunder for loss of Securities unless each of the Securities is identified in such proof of loss by a certificate or bond number or by such identification means as the Underwriter may require. The Underwriter shall have a reasonable period after receipt of a proper affirmative proof of loss within which to investigate the claim, but where the Property is Securities and the loss is clear and undisputed, settlement shall be made within forty-eight (48) hours even if the loss involves Securities of which duplicates may be obtained.

The Insured shall not bring legal proceedings against the Underwriter to recover any loss hereunder prior to sixty (60) days after filing such proof of loss or subsequent to twenty-four (24) months after the discovery of such loss or, in the case of a legal proceeding to recover hereunder on account of any judgment against the Insured in or settlement of any suit mentioned in General Agreement C or to recover court costs or attorneys’ fees paid in any such suit, twenty-four (24) months after the date of the final judgment in or settlement of such suit. If any limitation in this Bond is prohibited by any applicable law, such limitation shall be deemed to be amended to be equal to the minimum period of limitation permitted by such law.

Notice hereunder shall be given to Manager, Professional Liability Claims, ICI Mutual Insurance Company, RRG, 1401 H St. NW, Washington, DC 20005, with an electronic copy to LegalSupport@icimutual.com.

SECTION 5. DISCOVERY

For all purposes under this Bond, a loss is discovered, and discovery of a loss occurs, when the Insured

(1)

becomes aware of facts, or

(2)

receives notice of an actual or potential claim by a third party which alleges that the Insured is liable under circumstances,

which would cause a reasonable person to assume that a loss of a type covered by this Bond has been or is likely to be incurred, regardless of when the act or acts causing or contributing to such loss occurred, even though the exact amount or details of the loss may not be known.

Blanket Bond (05/23)

SECTION 6. VALUATION OF PROPERTY

For the purpose of determining the amount of any loss hereunder, the value of any Property shall be the market value of such Property at the close of business on the first business day before the discovery of such loss; except that

(1)

the value of any Property replaced by the Insured prior to the payment of a claim therefor shall be the actual market value of such Property at the time of replacement, but not in excess of the market value of such Property on the first business day before the discovery of the loss of such Property;

(2)

the value of Securities which must be produced to exercise subscription, conversion, redemption or deposit privileges shall be the market value of such privileges immediately preceding the expiration thereof if the loss of such Securities is not discovered until after such expiration, but if there is no quoted or other ascertainable market price for such Property or privileges referred to in clauses (1) and (2), their value shall be fixed by agreement between the parties or by arbitration before an arbitrator or arbitrators acceptable to the parties; and

(3)

the value of books of accounts or other records used by the Insured in the conduct of its business shall be limited to the actual cost of blank books, blank pages or other materials if the books or records are reproduced plus the cost of labor for the transcription or copying of data furnished by the Insured for reproduction.

SECTION 7. LOST SECURITIES

The maximum liability of the Underwriter hereunder for lost Securities shall be the payment for, or replacement of, such Securities having an aggregate value not to exceed the applicable Limit of Liability. If the Underwriter shall make payment to the Insured for any loss of Securities, the Insured shall assign to the Underwriter all of the Insured’s right, title and interest in and to such Securities. In lieu of such payment, the Underwriter may, at its option, replace such lost Securities, and in such case the Insured shall cooperate to effect such replacement. To effect the replacement of lost Securities, the Underwriter may issue or arrange for the issuance of a lost instrument bond. If the value of such Securities does not exceed the applicable Deductible Amount (at the time of the discovery of the loss), the Insured will pay the usual premium charged for the lost instrument bond and will indemnify the issuer of such bond against all loss and expense that it may sustain because of the issuance of such bond.

If the value of such Securities exceeds the applicable Deductible Amount (at the time of discovery of the loss), the Insured will pay a proportion of the usual premium charged for the lost instrument bond, equal to the percentage that the applicable Deductible Amount bears to the value of such Securities upon discovery of the loss, and will indemnify the issuer of such bond against all loss and expense that is not recovered from the Underwriter under the terms and conditions of this Bond, subject to the applicable Limit of Liability.

SECTION 8. SALVAGE

If any recovery is made, whether by the Insured or the Underwriter, on account of any loss within the applicable Limit of Liability hereunder, the Underwriter shall be entitled to the full amount of such recovery to reimburse the Underwriter for all amounts paid hereunder with respect to such loss. If any recovery is made, whether by the Insured or the Underwriter, on account of any loss in excess of the applicable Limit of Liability hereunder plus the Deductible Amount applicable to such loss from any source other than suretyship, insurance, reinsurance, security or indemnity taken by or for the benefit of the Underwriter, the amount of such recovery, net of the actual costs and expenses of recovery, shall

Blanket Bond (05/23)

be applied to reimburse the Insured in full for the portion of such loss in excess of such Limit of Liability, and the remainder, if any, shall be paid first to reimburse the Underwriter for all amounts paid hereunder with respect to such loss and then to the Insured to the extent of the portion of such loss within the Deductible Amount. The Insured shall execute all documents which the Underwriter deems necessary or desirable to secure to the Underwriter the rights provided for herein.

SECTION 9. NON-REDUCTION AND NON-ACCUMULATION OF LIABILITY AND TOTAL LIABILITY

Prior to its termination, this Bond shall continue in force up to the Limit of Liability for each Insuring Agreement for each Single Loss, notwithstanding any previous loss (other than such Single Loss) for which the Underwriter may have paid or be liable to pay hereunder; PROVIDED, however, that regardless of the number of years this Bond shall continue in force and the number of premiums which shall be payable or paid, the liability of the Underwriter under this Bond with respect to any Single Loss shall be limited to the applicable Limit of Liability irrespective of the total amount of such Single Loss and shall not be cumulative in amounts from year to year or from period to period.

SECTION 10. MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF UNDERWRITER; OTHER BONDS OR POLICIES

The maximum liability of the Underwriter for any Single Loss covered by any Insuring Agreement under this Bond shall be the Limit of Liability applicable to such Insuring Agreement, subject to the applicable Deductible Amount and the other provisions of this Bond. Recovery for any Single Loss may not be made under more than one Insuring Agreement. If any Single Loss covered under this Bond is recoverable or recovered in whole or in part because of an unexpired discovery period under any other bonds or policies issued by the Underwriter to the Insured or to any predecessor in interest of the Insured, the maximum liability of the Underwriter shall be the greater of either (1) the applicable Limit of Liability under this Bond, or (2) the maximum liability of the Underwriter under such other bonds or policies.

SECTION 11. OTHER INSURANCE

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if any loss covered by this Bond shall also be covered by other insurance or suretyship for the benefit of the Insured, the Underwriter shall be liable hereunder only for the portion of such loss in excess of the amount recoverable under such other insurance or suretyship, but not exceeding the applicable Limit of Liability of this Bond.

SECTION 12. DEDUCTIBLE AMOUNT

The Underwriter shall not be liable under any Insuring Agreement unless the amount of the loss covered thereunder, after deducting the net amount of all reimbursement and/or recovery received by the Insured with respect to such loss (other than from any other bond, suretyship or insurance policy or as an advance by the Underwriter hereunder) shall exceed the applicable Deductible Amount; in such case the Underwriter shall be liable only for such excess, subject to the applicable Limit of Liability and the other terms of this Bond.

No Deductible Amount shall apply to any loss covered under Insuring Agreement A sustained by any Investment Company named as an Insured.

Blanket Bond (05/23)

SECTION 13. TERMINATION

The Underwriter may terminate this Bond as to any Insured or all Insureds only by written notice to such Insured or Insureds and, if this Bond is terminated as to any Investment Company, to each such Investment Company terminated thereby and to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C., in all cases not less than sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of termination specified in such notice.

The Insured may terminate this Bond only by written notice to the Underwriter not less than sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of the termination specified in such notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when the Insured terminates this Bond as to any Investment Company, the effective date of termination shall be not less than sixty (60) days from the date the Underwriter provides written notice of the termination to each such Investment Company terminated thereby and to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C.

This Bond will terminate as to any Insured that is a Non-Fund immediately and without notice upon (1) the takeover of such Insured’s business by any State or Federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator, or (2) the filing of a petition under any State or Federal statute relative to bankruptcy or reorganization of the Insured, or assignment for the benefit of creditors of the Insured.

Premiums are earned until the effective date of termination. The Underwriter shall refund the unearned premium computed at short rates in accordance with the Underwriter’s standard short rate cancellation tables if this Bond is terminated by the Insured or pro rata if this Bond is terminated by the Underwriter.

Upon the detection by any Insured that an Employee has committed any Dishonest or Fraudulent Act(s), the Insured shall immediately remove such Employee from a position that may enable such Employee to cause the Insured to suffer a loss by any subsequent Dishonest or Fraudulent Act(s). The Insured, within two (2) business days of such detection, shall notify the Underwriter with full and complete particulars of the detected Dishonest or Fraudulent Act(s).

For purposes of this section, detection occurs when any partner, officer, or supervisory employee of any Insured, who is not in collusion with such Employee, becomes aware that the Employee has committed any Dishonest or Fraudulent Act(s).

This Bond shall terminate as to any Employee by written notice from the Underwriter to each Insured and, if such Employee is an Employee of an Insured Investment Company, to the Securities and Exchange Commission, in all cases not less than sixty (60) days prior to the effective date of termination specified in such notice.

SECTION 14. RIGHTS AFTER TERMINATION

At any time prior to the effective date of termination of this Bond as to any Insured, such Insured may, by written notice to the Underwriter, elect to purchase the right under this Bond to an additional period of twelve (12) months within which to discover loss sustained by such Insured prior to the effective date of such termination and shall pay an additional premium therefor as the Underwriter may require.

Such additional discovery period shall terminate immediately and without notice upon the takeover of such Insured’s business by any State or Federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator. Promptly after such termination the Underwriter shall refund to the Insured any unearned premium.

Blanket Bond (05/23)

The right to purchase such additional discovery period may not be exercised by any State or Federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator, acting or appointed to take over the Insured’s business.

SECTION 15. CENTRAL HANDLING OF SECURITIES

The Underwriter shall not be liable for loss in connection with the central handling of securities within the systems established and maintained by any Depository (“Systems”), unless the amount of such loss exceeds the amount recoverable or recovered under any bond or policy or participants’ fund insuring the Depository against such loss (the “Depository’s Recovery”); in such case the Underwriter shall be liable hereunder only for the Insured’s share of such excess loss, subject to the applicable Limit of Liability, the Deductible Amount and the other terms of this Bond.

For determining the Insured’s share of such excess loss, (1) the Insured shall be deemed to have an interest in any certificate representing any security included within the Systems equivalent to the interest the Insured then has in all certificates representing the same security included within the Systems; (2) the Depository shall have reasonably and fairly apportioned the Depository’s Recovery among all those having an interest as recorded by appropriate entries in the books and records of the Depository in Property involved in such loss, so that each such interest shall share in the Depository’s Recovery in the ratio that the value of each such interest bears to the total value of all such interests; and (3) the Insured’s share of such excess loss shall be the amount of the Insured’s interest in such Property in excess of the amount(s) so apportioned to the Insured by the Depository.

This Bond does not afford coverage in favor of any Depository or Exchange or any nominee in whose name is registered any security included within the Systems.

SECTION 16. ADDITIONAL COMPANIES INCLUDED AS INSURED

If more than one entity is named as the Insured:

the total liability of the Underwriter hereunder for each Single Loss shall not exceed the Limit of Liability which would be applicable if there were only one named Insured, regardless of the number of Insured entities which sustain loss as a result of such Single Loss,

the Insured first named in Item 1 of the Declarations shall be deemed authorized to make, adjust, and settle, and receive and enforce payment of, all claims hereunder as the agent of each other Insured for such purposes and for the giving or receiving of any notice required or permitted to be given hereunder; provided, that the Underwriter shall promptly furnish each named Insured Investment Company with (1) a copy of this Bond and any amendments thereto, (2) a copy of each formal filing of a claim hereunder by any other Insured, and (3) notification of the terms of the settlement of each such claim prior to the execution of such settlement,

the Underwriter shall not be responsible or have any liability for the proper application by the Insured first named in Item 1 of the Declarations of any payment made hereunder to the first named Insured,

for the purposes of Sections 4 and 13, knowledge possessed or discovery made by any partner, officer or supervisory Employee of any Insured shall constitute knowledge or discovery by every named Insured,

Blanket Bond (05/23)

if the first named Insured ceases for any reason to be covered under this Bond, then the Insured next named shall thereafter be considered as the first named Insured for the purposes of this Bond, and

each named Insured shall constitute “the Insured” for all purposes of this Bond.

SECTION 17. NOTICE AND CHANGE OF CONTROL

Within thirty (30) days after learning that there has been a change in control of an Insured by transfer of its outstanding voting securities the Insured shall give written notice to the Underwriter of:

the names of the transferors and transferees (or the names of the beneficial owners if the voting securities are registered in another name), and

the total number of voting securities owned by the transferors and the transferees (or the beneficial owners), both immediately before and after the transfer, and

the total number of outstanding voting securities.

As used in this Section, “control” means the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Insured.

SECTION 18. CHANGE OR MODIFICATION

This Bond may only be modified by written Rider forming a part hereof over the signature of the Underwriter’s authorized representative. Any Rider which modifies the coverage provided by Insuring Agreement A, Fidelity, in a manner which adversely affects the rights of an Insured Investment Company shall not become effective until at least sixty (60) days after the Underwriter has given written notice thereof to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C., and to each Insured Investment Company affected thereby.

SECTION 19. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE TRADE AND ECONOMIC SANCTIONS

This Bond shall not be deemed to provide any coverage, and the Underwriter shall not be required to pay any loss or provide any benefit hereunder, to the extent that the provision of such coverage, payment of such loss or provision of such benefit would cause the Underwriter to be in violation of any applicable trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations, including, but not limited to, any sanctions, laws or regulations administered and enforced by the U.S. Department of Treasury Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).

SECTION 20. ANTI-BUNDLING

If any Insuring Agreement requires that an enumerated type of document be Counterfeit, or contain a Forgery or Alteration, the Counterfeit, Forgery, or Alteration must be on or of the enumerated document itself, not on or of some other document submitted with, accompanying or incorporated by reference into the enumerated document.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Underwriter has caused this Bond to be executed on the Declarations Page.

Most property and casualty insurers, including ICI Mutual Insurance Company, a Risk Retention Group (“ICI Mutual”), are subject to the requirements of the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002, as amended (the “Act”). The Act establishes a federal insurance backstop under which ICI Mutual and these other insurers may be partially reimbursed by the United States Government for future “insured losses” resulting from certified “acts of terrorism.” (Each of these bolded terms is defined by the Act.) The Act also places certain disclosure and other obligations on ICI Mutual and these other insurers.

Pursuant to the Act, any future losses to ICI Mutual caused by certified “acts of terrorism” may be partially reimbursed by the United Sates government under a formula established by the Act. Under this formula, the United States government would generally reimburse ICI Mutual for the Federal Share of Compensation of ICI Mutual’s “insured losses” in excess of ICI Mutual’s “insurer deductible” until total “insured losses” of all participating insurers reach $100 billion (the “Cap on Annual Liability”). If total “insured losses” of all property and casualty insurers reach the Cap on Annual Liability in any one calendar year, the Act limits U.S. Government reimbursement and provides that the insurers will not be liable under their policies for their portions of such losses that exceed such amount. Amounts otherwise payable under this Bond may be reduced as a result.

This Bond has no express exclusion for “acts of terrorism.” However, coverage under this Bond remains subject to all applicable terms, conditions, and limitations of the Bond (including exclusions) that are permissible under the Act.

The portion of the premium that is attributable to any coverage potentially available under the Bond for “acts of terrorism” is one percent (1%) and does not include any charges for the portion of loss that may be covered by the U.S. Government under the Act

As used herein, “Federal Share of Compensation” shall mean 80% beginning on January 1, 2020.

Except as above stated, nothing herein shall be held to alter, waive or extend any of the terms of this Bond.

INSURANCE REGULATORY COMPLIANCE FOR NON-U.S. OPERATIONS RIDER

In consideration of the premium charged for this Bond, it is hereby understood and agreed as follows:

Interpretation: This rider shall be interpreted with due regard to the intention of the parties, which is to provide specified Bond coverage to (a) Foreign Entities and (b) U.S. Entities for Financial Interest Losses, where permitted, subject to adherence to applicable laws and regulations.

Compliance with Applicable Laws and Regulations of Foreign Jurisdictions Regarding Use of Non-Admitted Insurance: Notwithstanding that one or more Foreign Entities may be included in the definition of “Insured” in Item 1 of the Declarations (as modified by Rider No. 1 or other rider), this Bond does not insure, and the Underwriter shall not be required to pay any loss sustained by, or to provide any benefit hereunder to or on behalf of, any Foreign Entity if doing so would cause the Underwriter or such Foreign Entity or any Insured to be in violation of applicable laws or regulations of any Associated Foreign Jurisdiction regarding the use of Non-Admitted Insurance or the making or acceptance of payments thereunder (“Prohibited Associated Foreign Jurisdiction”). Examples of Prohibited Associated Foreign Jurisdictions to which this Part 2 applies shall include but not be limited to the following jurisdictions: Japan, Brazil, India, and China.

Financial Interest Loss Coverage Extension: If permissible pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, a Financial Interest Loss incurred by a U.S. Entity shall be deemed to be a loss sustained by such U.S. Entity for purposes of Section 10 (“Maximum Liability of Underwriter; Other Bonds or Policies”) of this Bond, such that coverage under this Bond may extend to a U.S. Entity for its Financial Interest Loss, subject to all of the terms, conditions and limitations of this Bond (including all terms, conditions and limitations of this rider).

Good Faith Efforts to Resolve Questions: In the event that issues arise regarding the application of Part 2 or Part 3 of this rider in the context of a particular situation, representatives of the Underwriter and of a U.S. Entity (acting on behalf of a Foreign Entity if the issue involves Part 2, or on behalf of the U.S. Entity if the issue involves Part 3) shall seek in good faith to resolve such issues to their mutual satisfaction. If the representatives cannot reach a mutually acceptable resolution on their own, they shall in good faith consider soliciting expert outside

guidance to assist them in resolving the issues, with the costs and fees of such expert to be shared equally as between the Underwriter and the U.S. Entity. If the representatives are unable to resolve the issues following these good faith efforts to do so, nothing herein shall preclude the U.S. Entity or the Underwriter from thereafter commencing a judicial proceeding to resolve the issues, provided, however, that such a proceeding (i) may not be commenced earlier than ninety (90) days after the representatives have completed the good faith efforts described herein, and (ii) must be in compliance with Part 5.d of this rider.

Additional Matters:

Locally Admitted Insurance: Without otherwise limiting Section 11 (“Other Insurance”) of this Bond or the terms (including, without limitation, Parts 2 and 3) of this rider, any coverage that may otherwise be available under this rider and this Bond for (1) any loss sustained by any Foreign Entity, and/or (2) any Financial Interest Loss sustained by any U.S. Entity, shall be specifically excess of, and shall not contribute with, any coverage available under any Locally Admitted Insurance. A Foreign Entity or U.S. Entity may, however, credit any amount recovered under any Locally Admitted Insurance against the Deductible Amount applicable to a related loss or Financial Interest Loss for which coverage is available under this Bond and this rider, provided that such recovered amount constitutes loss for which coverage would otherwise have been available under the terms of both this rider and Bond.

U.S. Entity as Representative: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the first paragraph of Section 4 of this Bond, unless otherwise agreed to by the Underwriter in writing: (1) a U.S. Entity shall act on behalf of all Foreign Entities with respect to all information or payments provided to or by the Underwriter under this Bond; (2) a Foreign Entity shall have no right to provide any such information or payments directly to, or to receive any such information or payments directly from, the Underwriter; and (3) the Underwriter shall have no obligation to receive any information or payments directly from, or to provide any such information or payments directly to, any Foreign Entity. The “information or payments” referenced above shall include, without limitation: notice and an affirmative proof of loss under Section 4 of this Bond; notice of termination under Section 13 of this Bond; notice of a change in control under Section 17 of this Bond; information, assistance, and cooperation to the Underwriter with regard to the Application or any Bond claim; premiums payable and any return premiums that may be due under this Bond; any loss that may be payable under this Bond; any riders issued to form a part of this Bond; and the exercising or declining the exercise of any right to a discovery period under Section 14 of this Bond.

Treatment of Financial Interest Loss: As the context and logic may demand or suggest, the duties, obligations and rights of Insureds and the Underwriter under this Bond with regard to a loss shall be deemed to apply to a U.S. Entity with regard to a Financial Interest Loss. Thus, by way of illustration, and without limitation:

(1)

Duties and Obligations of a U.S. Entity: Bond provisions obligating Insureds to provide notice and proof of loss (Section 4), to reimburse the Underwriter for a recovery (Section 8), and to take action upon detection that an Employee has committed any Dishonest or Fraudulent Act(s) (Section 13), shall apply to a U.S. Entity with respect to any matter involving a Foreign Entity that may result in a Financial Interest Loss.

(2)

Deductibles: Bond provisions regarding Deductible Amounts (Section 12) shall apply to a Financial Interest Loss.

(3)

Discovery Period: Bond provisions affording Insureds with rights to a discovery period (Section 14) shall apply to a U.S. Entity with respect to any matter involving a Foreign Entity that may result in a Financial Interest Loss.

(4)

Sanctions: Bond provisions relating to violations of applicable trade or economic sanctions, laws or regulations (Section 19) shall apply to a Financial Interest Loss.

Actions Against the Underwriter: No action involving any Foreign Entity as a party, or otherwise relating to any Foreign Entity, may be brought against the Underwriter anywhere other than in a court within the State of Vermont in the United States of America. In the case of any such action, this policy shall be governed by and construed and enforced only in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Vermont (without reference to choice of law doctrine applicable in such state), and the English text as it appears in this Bond.

Definition of “Fund” or “Investment Company”: With regard to loss sustained by a Foreign Entity or a Financial Interest Loss, the term “Fund” or “Investment Company,” except as used in Sections 12, 13, 16, and 18 and Rider No. 4 of this Bond, shall be deemed to include any Foreign Entity that is a Foreign Fund.

Definition of “Self-Regulatory Organization”: With regard to loss sustained by a Foreign Entity or a Financial Interest Loss, the term “Self-Regulatory Organization,” as used in Insuring Agreement B., Audit Expense, Insuring Agreement F., Securities, and Section 2.E of this Bond only, shall be deemed to include any association or organization of investment advisers or securities dealers registered or authorized under the securities laws of a Foreign Jurisdiction or any securities exchange registered with any Foreign Jurisdiction.

Termination: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13 (“Termination”) or any other provision of this Bond, this Bond shall terminate immediately as to any Foreign Entity without prior notice to such Foreign Entity:

(1)

if there is a change in control (as defined in Section 17 of this Bond) of such Foreign Entity by transfer of its outstanding voting securities or otherwise, or

(2)

if such Foreign Entity shall merge or consolidate with an entity such that the Foreign Entity is the surviving entity, or purchase or otherwise acquire any other entity or substantially all the assets of another entity, or acquire or create a Subsidiary or separate investment portfolio,

unless, prior to such change in control, or merger or consolidation, or purchase, or acquisition or creation, respectively (“Event”), the Foreign Entity notifies the Underwriter in writing of the impending Event and the Underwriter, in its sole discretion, determines to continue the Bond upon such terms and conditions as the Underwriter may deem appropriate.

Title and Headings: The title and headings in this rider are included solely for convenience and shall not themselves be deemed to be terms or conditions of coverage, or descriptions or interpretations thereof.

6. Definitions: As used in this rider:

“Associated Foreign Jurisdiction” means a Foreign Jurisdiction in which a Foreign Entity is (1) organized; (2) domiciled; or (3) is operating or conducting business.

“Financial Interest Loss” means the actual financial loss that a U.S. Entity itself sustains from Foreign Entity Loss incurred by a Foreign Entity, which financial loss is sustained by the U.S. Entity solely and directly as a result of:

any lawful pre-existing obligation it has to indemnify such Foreign Entity for all or part of such Foreign Entity Loss.

For the purposes of this Bond the amount of a Financial Interest Loss shall be capped at the amount of the relevant associated Foreign Entity Loss.

“Foreign Entity Loss” means that part of the loss, liability or expense incurred by a Foreign Entity (net of any sums available therefor to that Foreign Entity under any Locally Admitted Insurance) which would have been payable under this Bond but for the fact that Part 2 of this rider is applicable.

“Foreign Fund” means any entity included as an Insured in Item No. 1 of the Declarations (as modified by Rider No. 1 or other rider) that (1) is an investment company, mutual fund, unit investment trust, closed-end fund, mutual investment fund, investment trust or any other similar investment vehicle, (2) is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, and (3) is organized or domiciled in a Foreign Jurisdiction.

Loss (including loss of Property) resulting directly from Computer Fraud; provided, that the Insured has adopted in writing and generally maintains and follows during the Bond Period all Computer Security Procedures.

“Authorized User” means any person or entity designated by the Insured (through contract, assignment of User Identification, or otherwise) as authorized to use a Covered Computer System, or any part thereof.

“Covered Computer System” means any Computer System as to which the Insured has possession, custody and control.

“Unauthorized Third Party” means any person or entity that, at the time of the Computer Fraud, is not an Authorized User.

“User Identification” means any unique user name (i.e., a series of characters) that is assigned to a person or entity by the Insured.

Exclusions. It is further understood and agreed that this Insuring Agreement J shall not cover:

Any loss covered under Insuring Agreement A, “Fidelity,” of this Bond; and

Any loss resulting from the intentional failure to adhere to one or more Computer Security Procedures; and

Any loss resulting from a Computer Fraud committed by or in collusion with:

Blanket Bond Insurance Agreement

This Agreement is made as of the 9th day of October, 2023, by and among the investment companies listed in Appendix A (collectively referred to herein as the “Funds”), First Trust Advisors L.P. (the “Advisor”) and First Trust Portfolios L.P. (collectively, with the Advisor and the Funds referred to as the “Parties”).

Witnesseth:

Whereas, the Parties have agreed to acquire a joint insured policy (the “Policy”) issued by ICI Mutual Insurance Company containing broker’s blanket bond coverage (“Blanket Bond Coverage”) which shall cover all Parties;

Whereas, the total amount of the Blanket Bond Coverage under the Policy will be $37,000,000 (“Bond Amount”) based upon the determination of each Fund’s Board of Trustees that such insured Parties should have an amount of coverage, in the aggregate, of at least $34,150,000 (“Basic Bond Coverage”) as provided in Appendix B;

Whereas, the Parties desire to provide herein for an allocation of the premiums for the Blanket Bond Coverage and a manner of allocating any loss proceeds received under the Policy.

The Parties, therefore, agree that:

1. Allocation of Blanket Bond Coverage Premium. Each Party shall pay a proportionate share of the Blanket Bond Coverage annual premium based on the allocation as set forth in Appendix C.

2. Losses.

(a) General. The Policy is a “claims made” insurance policy and a Policy Year is the period from October 9th to the next succeeding October 9th (or any modification of that period as may be agreed by the Parties and the insurer). The insured loss (including all related expenses) of a Party which relates to a claim made by that Party relating to a particular Policy Year under the Blanket Bond Coverage is hereinafter referred to as a “Blanket Bond Loss.” Party includes the trustees and officers of an insured Party and other insured agents or employees of such a Party.

(b) Blanket Bond Loss. If only one insured Party incurs a Blanket Bond Loss relating to a Policy Year, the proceeds of the Blanket Bond Coverage for that Policy Year will be allocated to that Party. If more than one insured Party incurs a Blanket Bond Loss relating to a particular Policy Year, the proceeds of the Blanket Bond Coverage for that Policy Year will first be allocated among those insured Parties in proportion to their respective premiums paid under Paragraph 1 hereof for Blanket Bond Coverage. If, for that particular Policy Year, after initial allocation, there are remaining proceeds of the Blanket Bond Coverage and there are then insured Parties whose Blanket Bond Losses have not been paid in full, such proceeds shall be further allocated among such insured Parties in proportion to their respective premiums paid for such Coverage (repeating this further allocation procedure as each of such insured Parties is paid in full, until all proceeds have been allocated). If all Blanket Bond Losses relating to a particular Policy Year are not paid at the same time, the insured Parties who claim such Losses for that Policy Year shall make such provisions as they deem suitable to the particular circumstances (taking into account the size of any payment received, the size, nature and expected result of any remaining claims, and all other relevant factors) to permit a later re-allocation of amounts first paid. In no event shall any insured Party that incurs a Blanket Bond Loss relating to a Policy Year which equals or exceeds its Basic Bond Coverage be allocated proceeds of the Blanket Bond Coverage for that particular Policy Year in an amount less than its Basic Bond Coverage.
