This Bond is for the use and benefit only of the Insured named in the Declarations and the Underwriter shall not be liable hereunder for loss sustained by anyone other than the Insured unless the Insured, in its sole discretion and at its option, shall include such loss in the Insureds proof of loss. At the earliest practicable moment after discovery of any loss hereunder the Insured shall give the Underwriter written notice thereof and shall also within six months after such discovery furnish to the Underwriter affirmative proof of loss with full particulars. If claim is made under this Bond for loss of securities or shares, the Underwriter shall not be liable unless each of such securities or shares is identified in such proof of loss by a certificate or Bond number or, where such securities or shares are uncertificated, by such identification means as agreed to by the Underwriter. The Underwriter shall have thirty days after notice and proof of loss within which to investigate the claim, and this shall apply notwithstanding the loss is made up wholly or in part of securities of which duplicates may be obtained. Legal proceedings for recovery of any loss hereunder shall not be brought prior to the expiration of sixty days after such proof of loss is filed with the Underwriter nor after the expiration of twenty-four months from the discovery of such loss, except that any action or proceeding to recover hereunder on account of any judgment against the Insured in any suit mentioned in General Agreement C or to recover attorneys fees paid in any such suit, shall be begun within twenty-four months from the date upon which the judgment in such suit shall become final. If any limitation embodied in this Bond is prohibited by any law controlling the construction hereof, such limitation shall be deemed to be amended so as to be equal to the minimum period of limitation permitted by such law.
Discovery occurs when the Insured
(a) |
becomes aware of facts, or |
(b) |
receives written notice of an actual or potential claim by a third party which alleges that the Insured is liable under circumstance |
which would cause a reasonable person to assume that a loss covered by the Bond has been or will be incurred even though the exact amount or details of loss may not be then known.

SECTION 5. VALUATION OF PROPERTY
The value of any Property, except books of accounts or other records used by the Insured in the conduct of its business, for the loss of which a claim shall be made hereunder, shall be determined by the average market value of such Property on the business day next preceding the discovery of such loss; provided, however, that the value of any Property replaced by the Insured prior to the payment of claim therefor shall be the actual market value at the time of replacement; and further provided that in case of a loss or misplacement of interim certificates, warrants, rights, or other securities, the production which is necessary to the exercise of subscription, conversion, redemption or deposit privileges, the value thereof shall be the market value of such privileges immediately preceding the expiration thereof if said loss or misplacement is not discovered until after their expiration. If no market price is quoted for such Property or for such privileges, the value shall be fixed by agreement between the parties or by arbitration.
In case of any loss or damage to Property consisting of books of accounts or other records used by the Insured in the conduct of its business, the Underwriter shall be liable under this Bond only if such books or records are actually reproduced and then for not more than the cost of blank books, blank pages or other materials plus the cost of labor for the actual transcription or copying of data which shall have been furnished by the Insured in order to reproduce such books and other records.
SECTION 6. |
VALUATION OF PREMISES AND FURNISHINGS |
In case of damage to any office of the Insured, or loss of or damage to the furnishings, fixtures, stationary, supplies, equipment, safes or vaults therin, the Underwriter shall not be liable for more than the actual cash value thereof, or for more than the actual cost of their replacement or repair. The Underwriter may, at its election, pay such actual cash value or make such replacement or repair. If the Underwriter and the Insured cannot agree upon such cash value or such cost or replacement or repair, such shall be determined by arbitration.
SECTION 7. LOST SECURITIES
If the Insured shall sustain a loss of securities the total value of which is in excess of the limit stated in Item 3 of the Declarations of this Bond, the liability of the Underwriter shall be limited to payment for, or duplication of, securities having value equal to the limit stated in Item 3 of the Declarations of this Bond.
If the Underwriter shall make payment to the Insured for any loss of securities, the Insured shall thereupon assign to the Underwriter all of the Insureds rights, title and interests in and to said securities.
With respect to securities the value of which do not exceed the Deductible Amount (at the time of the discovery of the loss) and for which the Underwriter may at its sole discretion and option and at the request of the Insured issue a Lost Instrument Bond or Bonds to effect replacement thereof, the Insured will pay the usual premium charged therefor and will indemnify the Underwriter against all loss or expense that the Underwriter may sustain because of the issuance of such Lost Instrument Bond or Bonds.
With respect to securities the value of which exceeds the Deductible Amount (at the time of discovery of the loss) and for which the Underwriter may issue or arrange for the issuance of a Lost Instrument Bond or Bonds to effect replacement thereof, the Insured agrees that it will pay as premium therefor a proportion of the usual premium charged therefor, said proportion being equal to the percentage that the Deductible Amount bears to the value of the securities upon discovery of the loss, and that it will indemnify the issuer of said Lost Instrument Bond or Bonds against all loss and expense that is not recoverable from the Underwriter under the terms and conditions of this INVESTMENT COMPANY BOND subject to the Limit of Liability hereunder.
SECTION 8. SALVAGE
In case of recovery, whether made by the Insured or by the Underwriter, on account of any loss in excess of the 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 net amount of such recovery, less the actual costs and expenses of making same, shall be applied to reimburse the

019630 |
Insured in full for the excess portion of such loss, and the remainder, if any, shall be paid first in reimbursement of the Underwriter and thereafter in reimbursement of the Insured for that part of such loss within the Deductible Amount. The Insured shall execute all necessary papers to secure to the Underwriter the rights provided for herein.
SECTION 9. |
NON-REDUCTION AND NON-ACCUMULATION OF LIABILITY AND TOTAL LIABILITY |
At all times prior to termination hereof this Bond shall continue in force for the limit stated in the applicable sections of Item 3 of the Declarations of this Bond notwithstanding any previous 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 all loss resulting form
(a) |
any one act of burglary, robbery or hold-up, or attempt thereat, in which no Partner or Employee is concerned or implicated shall be deemed to be one loss, or |
(b) |
any one unintentional or negligent act on the part of any one person resulting in damage to or destruction or misplacement of Property, shall be deemed to be one loss, or |
(c) |
all wrongful acts, other than those specified in (a) above, of any one person shall be deemed to be one loss, or |
(d) |
all wrongful acts, other than those specified in (a) above, of one or more persons (which dishonest act(s) or act(s) of Larceny or Embezzlement include, but are not limited to, the failure of an Employee to report such acts of others) whose dishonest act or acts intentionally or unintentionally, knowingly or unknowingly, directly or indirectly, aid or aids in any way, or permits the continuation of, the dishonest act or acts of any other person or persons shall be deemed to be one loss with the act or acts of the persons aided, or |
(e) |
any one casualty or event other than those specified in (a), (b), (c) or (d) preceding, shall be deemed to be one loss, and shall be limited to the applicable Limit of Liability stated in Item 3 |
of the Declarations of this Bond irrespective of the total amount of such loss or losses and shall not be cumulative in amounts from year to year or from period to period.
Sub-section (c) is not applicable to any situation to which the language of sub-section (d) applies.
SECTION 10. LIMIT OF LIABILITY
With respect to any loss set forth in the PROVIDED clause of Section 9 of this Bond which is recoverable or recovered in whole or in part under any other Bonds or Policies issued by the Underwriter to the Insured or to any predecessor in interest of the Insured and terminated or cancelled or allowed to expire and in which the period for discovery has not expired at the time any such loss thereunder is discovered, the total liability of the Underwriter under this Bond and under other Bonds or Policies shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the amount carried hereunder on such loss or the amount available to the Insured under such other Bonds, or Policies, as limited by the terms and conditions thereof, for any such loss if the latter amount be the larger.
SECTION 11. OTHER INSURANCE
If the Insured shall hold, as indemnity against any loss covered hereunder, any valid and enforceable insurance or suretyship, the Underwriter shall be liable hereunder only for such amount of such loss which is in excess of the amount of such other insurance or suretyship, not exceeding, however, the Limit of Liability of this Bond applicable to such loss.
SECTION 12. DEDUCTIBLE
The Underwriter shall not be liable under any of the Insuring Agreements of this Bond on account of loss as specified, respectively, in sub-sections (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of Section 9, Non-Reduction And Nonaccumulation Of Liability And Total Liability, unless the amount of such loss, after deducting the net amount of all reimbursement and/or recovery obtained or made by the insured, other than from any Bond or Policy of insurance issued by an insurance company and covering such loss, or by the Underwriter on account thereof prior to payment by the Underwriter of such loss, shall exceed the Deductible Amount set forth in Item 3 of the Declarations hereof (herein called Deduct-
FI 75 11 (Ed. 08/15) | (Page 10 of 13) |

019630 |
ible Amount) and then for such excess only, but in no event for more than the applicable Limit of Liability stated in Item 3 of the Declarations.
The Insured will bear, in addition to the Deductible Amount, premiums on Lost Instrument Bonds as set forth in Section 7.
There shall be no deductible applicable to any loss under Insuring Agreement A sustained by any Investment Company named as Insured herein.
SECTION 13. TERMINATION
The Underwriter may terminate this Bond as an entirety by furnishing written notice specifying the termination date which cannot be prior to 90 days after the receipt of such written notice by each Investment Company named as Insured and the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. The Insured may terminate this Bond as an entirety by furnishing written notice to the Underwriter. When the Insured cancels, the Insured shall furnish written notice to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. prior to 90 days before the effective date of the termination. The Underwriter shall notify all other Investment Companies named as Insured of the receipt of such termination notice and the termination cannot be effective prior to 90 days after receipt of written notice by all other Investment Companies. Premiums are earned until the termination date as set forth herein.
This Bond will terminate as to any one Insured, (other than a registered management investment company), immediately upon taking over of such Insured by a receiver or other liquidator or by State or Federal officials, or immediately upon 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, or immediately upon such Insured ceasing to exist, whether through merger into another entity, or by disposition of all of its assets.
This Bond will terminate as to any registered management investment company upon the expiration of 90 days after written notice has been given to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C.
The Underwriter shall refund the unearned premium computed as short rates in accordance with the standard short rate cancellation tables if
terminated by the Insured or pro rata if terminated for any other reason.
This Bond shall terminate
(a) |
as to any Employee as soon as any partner, officer or supervisory Employee of the Insured, who is not in collusion with such Employee, shall learn of any dishonest or fraudulent act(s), including Larceny or Embezzlement on the part of such Employee without prejudice to the loss of any Property then in transit in the custody of such Employee and upon the expiration of ninety (90) days after written notice has been given to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. (See Section 16(d)) and to the Insured Investment Company, or |
(b) |
as to any Employee 90 days after receipt by each Insured and by the Securities and Exchange Commission of a written notice from the Underwriter of its desire to terminate this Bond as to such Employee, or |
(c) |
as to any person, who is a partner, officer or employee of any Electronic Data Processor covered under this Bond, from and after the time that the Insured or any partner or officer thereof not in collusion with such person shall have knowledge of information that such person has committed any dishonest or fraudulent act(s), including Larceny or Embezzlement in the service of the Insured or otherwise, whether such act be committed before or after the time this Bond is effective. |
SECTION 14. RIGHTS AFTER TERMINATION OR |
|
CANCELLATION
At any time prior to the termination or cancellation of this Bond as an entirety, whether by the Insured or the Underwriter, the Insured may give to the Underwriter notice that it desires under this Bond an additional period of 12 months within which to discover loss sustained by the Insured prior to the effective date of such termination or cancellation and shall pay an additional premium therefor.
Upon receipt of such notice from the Insured, the Underwriter shall give its written consent thereto: provided, however, that such additional period of time shall terminate immediately;
FI 75 11 (Ed. 08/15) | (Page 11 of 13) |
R * B0 * 03/24/2021 * FS 3147982 10 00 | Great American Insurance Company | |||
019630 |
(a) |
on the effective date of any other insurance obtained by the Insured, its successor in business or any other party, replacing in whole or in part the insurance afforded by this Bond, whether or not such other insurance provides coverage for loss sustained prior to its effective date, or |
(b) |
upon takeover of the Insureds business by any State or Federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator, acting or appointed for this purpose without the necessity of the Underwriter giving notice of such termination. In the event that such additional period of time is terminated, as provided above, the Underwriter shall refund any unearned premium. |
The right to purchase such additional period for the discovery of loss may not be exercised by any State or Federal official or agency, or by any receiver or liquidator, acting or appointed to take over the Insureds business for the operation or for the liquidation thereof or for any other purpose.
SECTION 15. CENTRAL |
HANDLING OF |
SECURITIES |
|
Securities included in the systems for the central handling of securities established and maintained by Depository Trust Company, Midwest Depository Trust Company, Pacific Securities Depository Trust Company, and Philadelphia Depository Trust Company, hereinafter called Corporations, to the extent of the Insureds interest therein as effective by the making of appropriate entries on the books and records of such Corporations shall be deemed to be Property.
The words Employee and Employees shall be deemed to include the officers, partners, clerks and other employees of the New York Stock Exchange, Boston Stock Exchange, Midwest Stock Exchange, Pacific Stock Exchange and Philadelphia Stock Exchange, hereinafter called Exchanges, and of the above named Corporations, and of any nominee in whose name is registered any security included within the systems for the central handling of securities established and maintained by such Corporations, and any employee of any recognized service company, while such officers, partners, clerks and other employees and employees of service companies perform services for such Corporations in the operation of such systems. For the purpose of the above definition a recognized service company
shall be any company providing clerks or other personnel to said Exchanges or Corporation on a contract basis.
The Underwriter shall not be liable on account of any loss(es) in connection with the central handling of securities within the systems established and maintained by such Corporations, unless such loss(es) shall be in excess of the amount(s) recoverable or recovered under any Bond or Policy if insurance indemnifying such Corporations, against such loss(es), and then the Underwriter shall be liable hereunder only for the Insureds share of such excess loss(es), but in no event for more than the Limit of Liability applicable hereunder.
For the purpose of determining the Insureds share of excess loss(es) it shall be deemed that the Insured has an interest in any certificate representing any security included within such systems equivalent to the interest the Insured then has in all certificates representing the same security included within such systems and that such Corporation shall use their best judgment in apportioning the amount(s) recoverable or recovered under any Bond or Policy of insurance indemnifying such Corporations against such loss(es) in connection with the central handling of securities within such systems among all those having an interest as recorded by appropriate entries in the books and records of such Corporations in Property involved in such loss(es) on the basis that each such interest shall share in the amount(s) so recoverable or recovered in the ratio that the value of each such interest bears to the total value of all such interests and that the Insureds share of such excess loss(es) shall be the amount of the Insureds interest in such Property in excess of the amount(s) so apportioned to the Insured by such Corporations.
This Bond does not afford coverage in favor of such Corporations or Exchanges or any nominee in whose name is registered any security included within the systems for the central handling of securities established and maintained by such Corporations, and upon payment to the Insured by the Underwriter on account of any loss(es) within the systems, an assignment of such of the Insureds rights and causes of action as it may have against such Corporations or Exchanges shall to the extent of such payment, be given by the Insured to the Underwriter, and the Insured shall execute all papers necessary to secure to the Underwriter the rights provided for herein.

SECTION 16. ADDITIONAL |
COMPANIES INCLUDED |
AS INSURED
If more than one corporation, co-partnership or person or any combination of them be included as the Insured herein:
(a) |
the total liability of the Underwriter hereunder for loss or losses sustained by any one or more or all of them shall not exceed the limit for which the Underwriter would be liable hereunder if all such loss were sustained by any one of them. |
(b) |
the one first named herein shall be deemed authorized to make, adjust and receive and enforce payment of all claims hereunder and shall be deemed to be the agent of the others for such purposes and for the giving or receiving of any notice required or permitted to be given by the terms hereof, provided that the Underwriter shall furnish each named Investment Company with a copy of the Bond and with any amendment thereto, together with a copy of each formal filing of the settlement of each such claim prior to the execution of such settlement, |
(c) |
the Underwriter shall not be responsible for the proper application of any payment made hereunder to said first named Insured, |
(d) |
knowledge possessed or discovery made by any partner, officer or supervisory Employee of any Insured shall for the purpose of Section 4 and Section 13 of this Bond constitute knowledge or discovery by all the Insured, and |
(e) |
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. |
SECTION 17. |
NOTICE AND CHANGE OF |
CONTROL
Upon the Insureds obtaining knowledge of a transfer of its outstanding voting securities which results in a change in control (as set forth in Section 2(a) (9) of the Investment Company Act of
1940) of the Insured, the Insured shall within thirty (30) days of such knowledge give written notice to the Underwriter setting forth:
(a) |
the names of the transferors and transferees (or the names of the beneficial owners if the voting securities are requested in another name), and |
(b) |
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 |
(c) |
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.
Failure to give the required notice shall result in termination of coverage of this Bond, effective upon the date of stock transfer for any loss in which any transferee is concerned or implicated.
Such notice is not required to be given in the case of an Insured which is an Investment Company.
SECTION 18. |
CHANGE OR MODIFICATION |
This Bond or any instrument amending or effecting same may not be changed or modified orally. No changes in or modification thereof shall be effective unless made by written Endorsement issued to form a part hereof over the signature of the Underwriters Authorized Representative. When a Bond covers only one Investment Company no change or modification which would adversely affect the rights of the Investment Company shall be effective prior to 60 days after written notification has been furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. by the Insured or by the Underwriter. If more than one Investment Company is named as the Insured herein, the Underwriter shall give written notice to each Investment Company and to the Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. not less than 60 days prior to the effective date of any change or modification which would adversely affect the rights of such Investment Company.

ALLOCATION AGREEMENT
Fidelity Bond
THIS AGREEMENT made as of this 24th day of May, 2002 by and among any of the Funds listed on Schedule A and any separate classes thereof and all future investment companies and any separate classes thereof (the Funds), which are named insureds under a joint liability policy as described below and for which ING Investments, LLC acts as investment manager are entered into under the following circumstances:
A. Section 17(g) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) provides that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is authorized to require that directors, officers and employees of registered investment companies be covered under a liability, errors and omissions insurance policy, and the SEC has promulgated rules and regulations dealing with this subject (Rule 17g-1);
B. The Funds are named as joint insureds under the terms of a joint insurance policy (Policy) which insures against illegal profit or gain, intentional wrongful acts, libel, slander, defamation, ERISA claims, insider trading, as well as other coverage as outlined in the Policy, by the directors, officers and employees;
C. A majority of those members of the Board of Directors/Trustees of each of the Funds, who are not interested persons as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, have given due consideration to all factors relevant to the form, amount and apportionment of premiums and recoveries under such Policy and the Board of Directors/Trustees of each Fund has approved the term and amount of the Policy, the portion of the premium payable by that party, and the manner in which recovery on the Policy, if any, shall be shared by and among the parties thereto; and
D. The Funds now desire to enter into the agreement required by Rule 17g-1 of the 1940 Act to establish the manner in which recovery under the Policy, if any, shall be shared.
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY AGREED by and among the parties as follows:
1. Payment of Premiums.
Each Fund shall pay a portion of the premium due under the Policy derived by multiplying the premium by a fraction, (i) the denominator of which is the total net assets of all the Funds combined and (ii) the numerator of which is the total net assets of each of the Funds individually. The net assets of the classes are deemed to be represented by the net assets of their respective funds. Each of the Funds agrees that the appropriateness of the allocation of said premium will be determined no less often than annually. No adjustment of the allocation of said premium will be implemented without approval of the Boards of each of the Funds.
2. Allocation of Recoveries
(a) If more than one of the parties hereto is damaged in a single loss for which recovery is received under the policy, each such party shall receive that portion of the recovery which represents the loss sustained by that party, unless the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify such party sustaining loss.
(b) If the recovery is inadequate to fully indemnify each such party sustaining a loss, the recovery shall be allocated among such parties as follows:
(i) Each Party sustaining a loss shall be allocated an amount equal to the lesser of its actual loss or the minimum amount of policy which would be required to be maintained by such party under a single insured policy (determined as of the time of loss) in accordance with the provisions of Rule 17g-1.
(ii) The remaining portion of the proceeds shall be allocated to each party sustaining a loss not fully covered by the allocation under subparagraph (i) in the proportion that each such partys last payment of premium bears to the sum of the last such premium payments of all such parties. If such allocation would result in any party which had sustained a loss receiving a portion of the recovery in excess of the loss actually sustained, such excess portion shall be allocated among the other parties whose losses would not be fully indemnified. The allocation shall bear the same proportion as each such partys last payment of premium bears to the sum of the last premium payments of all parties entitled to receive a share of the excess. Any allocation in excess of a loss actually sustained by any such party shall be reallocated in the same manner.
2
3. Obligation to Maintain Minimum Coverage.
Each of the Funds represents and warrants to each of the other parties hereto that the minimum amount of coverage required of it by Rule 17g -1 as of the date hereof is as reflected in the schedule attached hereto. Each of the Funds agrees that it will determine, no less than at the end of each calendar quarter, the minimum amount of coverage which would be required of it by Rule 17g-1 if a determination with respect to the adequacy of the coverage were currently being made. In the event that the total amount of the minimum coverage thus determined exceeds the amount of coverage of the then effective policy, the Boards of each of the Funds will be notified and will determine whether it is necessary or appropriate to increase the total amount of coverage of the policy to an amount not less than the total amount of such minimums, or to secure such excess coverage for one or more of the parties hereto, which, when added to the total coverage of the policy, will equal an amount of such minimums. Unless a Fund elects to terminate this Agreement (pursuant to Paragraph 4) and its participation in a joint-insured policy, each Fund agrees to pay its fair portion of the new or additional premium (taking into account all of the then existing circumstances).
4. Continuation and Termination. This Agreement shall become effective on the date first written above, subject to the condition that the Funds Board of Directors/Trustees, including a majority of those Directors/Trustees who are not interested persons (as such term is defined in the 1940 Act) of the Manager, shall have approved this Agreement. This Agreement shall supersede all prior agreements relating to an allocation of premium on any joint insured policy and shall apply to the present liability policy coverage and any renewal or replacement thereof. It shall continue until terminated by any party hereto upon the giving of not less than sixty (60) days notice to the other parties hereto in writing.
5. Amendments. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. A written amendment of this Agreement is effective upon the approval of the Board of Directors/Trustees and the Manager.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused these presents to be duly executed by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above written.
