Fees

Fees for activities of a non-recurring nature such as Company consolidations or reorganizations, third-party tax recovery services support, extraordinary security transfers or shipments and the preparation of special reports will be subject to negotiation. Fees for other special items will be negotiated separately.

Additional fees at $200 per hour, or as agreed upon by project, may apply for special programming or projects to meet your servicing requirements or to create custom reports or data extracts.

Out-of-Pocket Expenses

Out-of-pocket expenses include but are not limited to security transfer fees, certificate fees, shipping/courier fees or charges, bank DDA service charges, proxy fees/charges, legal review/processing of restricted and private placement securities, custom programming charges, and expenses, including but not limited to attorney’s fees, incurred in connection with responding to and complying with SEC or other regulatory investigations, inquiries or subpoenas, excluding routine examinations of UMB in its capacity as a service provider.

All fees, other than basis point fees, are subject to an annual escalation equal to the increase in the Consumer Price Index–Urban Wage Earners (CPI). Such escalations shall be effective commencing one year from the effective date of the Agreement and the corresponding date each year thereafter. No amendment of this fee schedule shall be required with each escalation. CPI will be determined by reference to the Consumer Price Index News Release issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor.

This fee schedule pertains to custody of U.S. domestic assets only. We will provide our fee schedule for Euroclear and global custody upon request.

Fees for services not contemplated by this schedule will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis.
