to the Registrant, T. Rowe Price International Series, Inc., and
Institutional International Funds, Inc. is Rowe Price-Fleming
International, Inc. ("Manager") which is 50% owned by TRP

employees of each of the named insureds. The premium is

the provisions of Rule 17d-1(d)(7) under the Investment Company
Act of 1940.
Article X, Section 10.01 of the Registrant's By-Laws
provides as follows:
Section 10.01. Indemnification and Payment of Expenses
in Advance: The Corporation shall indemnify any individual
("Indemnitee") who is a present or former director, officer,
employee, or agent of the Corporation, or who is or has been
serving at the request of the Corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, who,
by reason of his position was, is, or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed
action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative, or investigative (hereinafter collectively
referred to as a "Proceeding") against any judgments,
penalties, fines, settlements, and reasonable expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by such Indemnitee in
PAGE 19
connection with any Proceeding, to the fullest extent that
such indemnification may be lawful under Maryland law. The
Corporation shall pay any reasonable expenses so incurred by
such Indemnitee in defending a Proceeding in advance of the
final disposition thereof to the fullest extent that such
advance payment may be lawful under Maryland law. Subject
to any applicable limitations and requirements set forth in
the Corporation's Articles of Incorporation and in these By-
Laws, any payment of indemnification or advance of expenses
shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Maryland law.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall
protect or purport to protect any Indemnitee against any
liability to which he would otherwise be subject by reason
of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or
reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of
his office ("Disabling Conduct").
Anything in this Article X to the contrary
notwithstanding, no indemnification shall be made by the
Corporation to any Indemnitee unless:
(a) there is a final decision on the merits by a court
or other body before whom the Proceeding was
brought that the Indemnitee was not liable by
reason of Disabling Conduct; or
(b) in the absence of such a decision, there is a
reasonable determination, based upon a review of
the facts, that the Indemnitee was not liable by
reason of Disabling Conduct, which determination
shall be made by:
(i) the vote of a majority of a quorum of
directors who are neither "interested
persons" of the Corporation as defined in
Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company
Act of 1940, nor parties to the Proceeding;
or
(ii) an independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.
Anything in this Article X to the contrary
notwithstanding, any advance of expenses by the Corporation
to any Indemnitee shall be made only upon the undertaking by
PAGE 20
such Indemnitee to repay the advance unless it is ultimately
determined that such Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification as above provided, and only if one of the
following conditions is met:
(a) the Indemnitee provides a security for his
undertaking; or
(b) the Corporation shall be insured against losses
arising by reason of any lawful advances; or
(c) there is a determination, based on a review of
readily available facts, that there is reason to
believe that the Indemnitee will ultimately be
found entitled to indemnification, which
determination shall be made by:
(i) a majority of a quorum of directors who are
neither "interested persons" of the
Corporation as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of
the Investment Company Act, nor parties to
the Proceeding; or
(ii) an independent legal counsel in a written
opinion.
Section 10.02 of the Registrant's By-Laws provides as
follows:
Section 10.02. Insurance of Officers, Directors,
Employees and Agents: To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable Maryland law and by Section 17(h) of the
Investment Company Act, as from time to time amended, the
Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of
any person who is or was a director, officer, employee, or
agent of the Corporation, or who is or was serving at the
request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee,
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, or other enterprise, against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in or arising out of his
position, whether or not the Corporation would have the
power to indemnify him against such liability.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
PAGE 21
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in
the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to
a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

The Global Custody Agreement dated January 3, 1994, as
amended, between The Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. and T. Rowe Price
Funds should be inserted here.
PAGE 1
GLOBAL CUSTODY AGREEMENT
This AGREEMENT is effective January 3, 1994, and is between
THE CHASE MANHATTAN BANK, N.A. (the "Bank") and EACH OF THE
ENTITIES LISTED ON SCHEDULE A HERETO, Individually and Separately
(each individually, the "Customer").
1. Customer Accounts.
The Bank agrees to establish and maintain the following
accounts ("Accounts"):
(a) A custody account in the name of the Customer
("Custody Account") for any and all stocks, shares, bonds,
debentures, notes, mortgages or other obligations for the payment
of money, bullion, coin and any certificates, receipts, warrants
or other instruments representing rights to receive, purchase or
subscribe for the same or evidencing or representing any other
rights or interests therein and other similar property whether
certificated or uncertificated as may be received by the Bank or
its Subcustodian (as defined in Section 3) for the account of the
Customer ("Securities"); and
(b) A deposit account in the name of the Customer ("Deposit
Account") for any and all cash in any currency received by the
Bank or its Subcustodian for the account of the Customer, which
cash shall not be subject to withdrawal by draft or check.
The Customer warrants its authority to: 1) deposit the cash
and Securities ("Assets") received in the Accounts and 2) give
Instructions (as defined in Section 11) concerning the Accounts.
The Bank may deliver securities of the same class in place of
those deposited in the Custody Account.
Upon written agreement between the Bank and the Customer,
additional Accounts may be established and separately accounted
for as additional Accounts under the terms of this Agreement.
2. Maintenance of Securities and Cash at Bank and Subcustodian
Locations.
Unless Instructions specifically require another location
acceptable to the Bank:
(a) Securities will be held in the country or other
jurisdiction in which the principal trading market for such
Securities is located, where such Securities are to be presented
for payment or where such Securities are acquired; and
PAGE 2
(b) Cash will be credited to an account in a country or
other jurisdiction in which such cash may be legally deposited or
is the legal currency for the payment of public or private debts.
Cash may be held pursuant to Instructions in either interest
or non-interest bearing accounts as may be available for the
particular currency. To the extent Instructions are issued and
the Bank can comply with such Instructions, the Bank is
authorized to maintain cash balances on deposit for the Customer
with itself or one of its affiliates at such reasonable rates of
interest as may from time to time be paid on such accounts, or in
non-interest bearing accounts as the Customer may direct, if
acceptable to the Bank.
If the Customer wishes to have any of its Assets held in the
custody of an institution other than the established
Subcustodians as defined in Section 3 (or their securities
depositories), such arrangement must be authorized by a written
agreement, signed by the Bank and the Customer.
3. Subcustodians and Securities Depositories.
The Bank may act under this Agreement through the
subcustodians listed in Schedule B of this Agreement with which
the Bank has entered into subcustodial agreements
("Subcustodians"). The Customer authorizes the Bank to hold
Assets in the Accounts in accounts which the Bank has established
with one or more of its branches or Subcustodians. The Bank and
Subcustodians are authorized to hold any of the Securities in
their account with any securities depository in which they
participate.
The Bank reserves the right to add new, replace or remove
Subcustodians. The Customer will be given reasonable notice by
the Bank of any amendment to Schedule B. Upon request by the
Customer, the Bank will identify the name, address and principal
place of business of any Subcustodian of the Customer's Assets
and the name and address of the governmental agency or other
regulatory authority that supervises or regulates such
Subcustodian.
4. Use of Subcustodian.
(a) The Bank will identify such Assets on its books as
belonging to the Customer.
(b) A Subcustodian will hold such Assets together with
assets belonging to other customers of the Bank in accounts
identified on such Subcustodian's books as special custody
accounts for the exclusive benefit of customers of the Bank.
(c) Any Assets in the Accounts held by a Subcustodian will
be subject only to the instructions of the Bank or its agent.
PAGE 3
Any Securities held in a securities depository for the account of
a Subcustodian will be subject only to the instructions of such
Subcustodian.
(d) Any agreement the Bank enters into with a Subcustodian
for holding its customer's assets shall provide that such assets
will not be subject to any right, charge, security interest, lien
or claim of any kind in favor of such Subcustodian or its
creditors except for a claim for payment for safe custody or
administration, and that the beneficial ownership of such assets
will be freely transferable without the payment of money or value
other than for safe custody or administration. The foregoing
shall not apply to the extent of any special agreement or
arrangement made by the Customer with any particular
Subcustodian.
5. Deposit Account Transactions.
(a) The Bank or its Subcustodians will make payments from
the Deposit Account upon receipt of Instructions which include
all information required by the Bank.
(b) In the event that any payment to be made under this
Section 5 exceeds the funds available in the Deposit Account, the
Bank, in its discretion, may advance the Customer such excess
amount which shall be deemed a loan payable on demand, bearing
interest at the rate customarily charged by the Bank on similar
loans.
(c) If the Bank credits the Deposit Account on a payable
date, or at any time prior to actual collection and
reconciliation to the Deposit Account, with interest, dividends,
redemptions or any other amount due, the Customer will promptly
return any such amount upon oral or written notification: (i)
that such amount has not been received in the ordinary course of
business or (ii) that such amount was incorrectly credited. If
the Customer does not promptly return any amount upon such
notification, the Bank shall be entitled, upon oral or written
notification to the Customer, to reverse such credit by debiting
the Deposit Account for the amount previously credited. The Bank
or its Subcustodian shall have no duty or obligation to institute
legal proceedings, file a claim or a proof of claim in any
insolvency proceeding or take any other action with respect to
the collection of such amount, but may act for the Customer upon
Instructions after consultation with the Customer.
6. Custody Account Transactions.
(a) Securities will be transferred, exchanged or delivered
by the Bank or its Subcustodian upon receipt by the Bank of
Instructions which include all information required by the Bank.
Settlement and payment for Securities received for, and delivery
of Securities out of, the Custody Account may be made in
PAGE 4
accordance with the customary or established securities trading
or securities processing practices and procedures in the
jurisdiction or market in which the transaction occurs,
including, without limitation, delivery of Securities to a
purchaser, dealer or their agents against a receipt with the
expectation of receiving later payment and free delivery.
Delivery of Securities out of the Custody Account may also be
made in any manner specifically required by Instructions
acceptable to the Bank.
(b) The Bank, in its discretion, may credit or debit the
Accounts on a contractual settlement date with cash or Securities
with respect to any sale, exchange or purchase of Securities.
Otherwise, such transactions will be credited or debited to the
Accounts on the date cash or Securities are actually received by
the Bank and reconciled to the Account.
(i) The Bank may reverse credits or debits made to the
Accounts in its discretion if the related transaction
fails to settle within a reasonable period, determined
by the Bank in its discretion, after the contractual
settlement date for the related transaction.
(ii) If any Securities delivered pursuant to this
Section 6 are returned by the recipient thereof, the
Bank may reverse the credits and debits of the
particular transaction at any time.
7. Actions of the Bank.
The Bank shall follow Instructions received regarding assets
held in the Accounts. However, until it receives Instructions to
the contrary, the Bank will:
(a) Present for payment any Securities which are called,
redeemed or retired or otherwise become payable and all coupons
and other income items which call for payment upon presentation,
to the extent that the Bank or Subcustodian is actually aware of
such opportunities.
(b) Execute in the name of the Customer such ownership and
other certificates as may be required to obtain payments in
respect of Securities.
(c) Exchange interim receipts or temporary Securities for
definitive Securities.
(d) Appoint brokers and agents for any transaction
involving the Securities, including, without limitation,
affiliates of the Bank or any Subcustodian.
(e) Issue statements to the Customer, at times mutually
agreed upon, identifying the Assets in the Accounts.
PAGE 5
The Bank will send the Customer an advice or notification of
any transfers of Assets to or from the Accounts. Such
statements, advices or notifications shall indicate the identity
of the entity having custody of the Assets. Unless the Customer
sends the Bank a written exception or objection to any Bank
statement within ninety (90) days of receipt, the Customer shall
be deemed to have approved such statement. The Bank shall, to
the extent permitted by law, be released, relieved and discharged
with respect to all matters set forth in such statement or
reasonably implied therefrom as though it had been settled by the
decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in an action where
the Customer and all persons having or claiming an interest in
the Customer or the Customer's Accounts were parties if: (a) the
Customer has failed to provide a written exception or objection
to any Bank statement within ninety (90) days of receipt and
where the Customer's failure to so provide a written exception or
objection within such ninety (90) day period has limited the
Bank's (i) access to the records, materials and other information
required to investigate the Customer's exception or objection,
and (ii) ability to recover from third parties any amounts for
which the Bank may become liable in connection with such
exception or objection, or (b) where the Customer has otherwise
explicitly approved any such statement.
All collections of funds or other property paid or
distributed in respect of Securities in the Custody Account shall
be made at the risk of the Customer. The Bank shall have no
liability for any loss occasioned by delay in the actual receipt
of notice by the Bank or by its Subcustodians of any payment,
redemption or other transaction regarding Securities in the
Custody Account in respect of which the Bank has agreed to take
any action under this Agreement.
8. Corporate Actions; Proxies.
Whenever the Bank receives information concerning the
Securities which requires discretionary action by the beneficial
owner of the Securities (other than a proxy), such as
subscription rights, bonus issues, stock repurchase plans and
rights offerings, or legal notices or other material intended to
be transmitted to securities holders ("Corporate Actions"), the
Bank will give the Customer notice of such Corporate Actions to
the extent that the Bank's central corporate actions department
has actual knowledge of a Corporate Action in time to notify its
customers.
When a rights entitlement or a fractional interest resulting
from a rights issue, stock dividend, stock split or similar
Corporate Action is received which bears an expiration date, the
Bank will endeavor to obtain Instructions from the Customer or
its Authorized Person, but if Instructions are not received in
time for the Bank to take timely action, or actual notice of such
Corporate Action was received too late to seek Instructions, the
PAGE 6
Bank is authorized to sell such rights entitlement or fractional
interest and to credit the Deposit Account with the proceeds or
take any other action it deems, in good faith, to be appropriate
in which case it shall be held harmless for any such action.
The Bank will deliver proxies to the Customer or its
designated agent pursuant to special arrangements which may have
been agreed to in writing. Such proxies shall be executed in the
appropriate nominee name relating to Securities in the Custody
Account registered in the name of such nominee but without
indicating the manner in which such proxies are to be voted; and
where bearer Securities are involved, proxies will be delivered
in accordance with Instructions.
9. Nominees.
Securities which are ordinarily held in registered form may
be registered in a nominee name of the Bank, Subcustodian or
securities depository, as the case may be. The Bank may without
notice to the Customer cause any such Securities to cease to be
registered in the name of any such nominee and to be registered
in the name of the Customer. In the event that any Securities
registered in a nominee name are called for partial redemption by
the issuer, the Bank may allot the called portion to the
respective beneficial holders of such class of security pro rata
or in any other manner that is fair, equitable and practicable.
The Customer agrees to hold the Bank, Subcustodians, and their
respective nominees harmless from any liability arising directly
or indirectly from their status as a mere record holder of
Securities in the Custody Account.
10. Authorized Persons.
As used in this Agreement, the term "Authorized Person"
means employees or agents including investment managers as have
been designated by written notice from the Customer or its
designated agent to act on behalf of the Customer under this
Agreement. Such persons shall continue to be Authorized Persons
until such time as the Bank receives Instructions from the
Customer or its designated agent that any such employee or agent
is no longer an Authorized Person.
11. Instructions.
The term "Instructions" means instructions of any Authorized
Person received by the Bank, via telephone, telex, TWX, facsimile
transmission, bank wire or other teleprocess or electronic
instruction or trade information system acceptable to the Bank
which the Bank believes in good faith to have been given by
Authorized Persons or which are transmitted with proper testing
or authentication pursuant to terms and conditions which the Bank
may specify. Unless otherwise expressly provided, all
PAGE 7
Instructions shall continue in full force and effect until
canceled or superseded.
Any Instructions delivered to the Bank by telephone shall
promptly thereafter be confirmed in writing by an Authorized
Person (which confirmation may bear the facsimile signature of
such Person), but the Customer will hold the Bank harmless for
the failure of an Authorized Person to send such confirmation in
writing, the failure of such confirmation to conform to the
telephone instructions received or the Bank's failure to produce
such confirmation at any subsequent time. The Bank may
electronically record any Instructions given by telephone, and
any other telephone discussions with respect to the Custody
Account. The Customer shall be responsible for safeguarding any
testkeys, identification codes or other security devices which
the Bank shall make available to the Customer or its Authorized
Persons.
12. Standard of Care; Liabilities.
(a) The Bank shall be responsible for the performance of
only such duties as are set forth in this Agreement or expressly
contained in Instructions which are consistent with the
provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement:
(i) The Bank will use reasonable care with respect to
its obligations under this Agreement and the
safekeeping of Assets. The Bank shall be liable to the
Customer for any loss which shall occur as the result
of the failure of a Subcustodian to exercise reasonable
care with respect to the safekeeping of such Assets to
the same extent that the Bank would be liable to the
Customer if the Bank were holding such Assets in New
York. In the event of any loss to the Customer by
reason of the failure of the Bank or its Subcustodian
to utilize reasonable care, the Bank shall be liable to
the Customer only to the extent of the Customer's
direct damages, and shall in no event be liable for any
special or consequential damages.
(ii) The Bank will not be responsible for any act,
omission, default or for the solvency of any broker or
agent which it or a Subcustodian appoints unless such
appointment was made negligently or in bad faith or for
any loss due to the negligent act of such broker or
agent except to the extent that such broker or agent
(other than a Subcustodian) performs in a negligent
manner which is the cause of the loss to the Customer
and the Bank failed to exercise reasonable care in
monitoring such broker's or agent's performance where
Customer has requested and Bank has agreed to accept
such monitoring responsibility.
PAGE 8
(iii) The Bank shall be indemnified by, and
without liability to the Customer for any action taken
or omitted by the Bank whether pursuant to Instructions
or otherwise within the scope of this Agreement if such
act or omission was in good faith, without negligence.
In performing its obligations under this Agreement, the
Bank may rely on the genuineness of any document which
it believes in good faith to have been validly
executed.
(iv) The Customer agrees to pay for and hold the Bank
harmless from any liability or loss resulting from the
imposition or assessment of any taxes or other
governmental charges, and any related expenses with
respect to income from or Assets in the Accounts,
except to the extent that the Bank has failed to
exercise reasonable care in performing any obligations
which the Bank may have agreed to assume (in addition
to those stated in this Agreement) with respect to
taxes and such failure by the Bank is the direct cause
of such imposition or assessment of such taxes, charges
or expenses.
(v) The Bank shall be entitled to rely, and may act,
upon the advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the
Customer) on all legal matters and shall be without
liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted
pursuant to such advice; provided, that the Bank gives
(to the extent practicable) prior notice to Customer of
Bank's intention to so seek advice of counsel and an
opportunity for consultation with Customer on the
proposed contact with counsel.
(vi) The Bank represents and warrants that it currently
maintain a banker's blanket bond which provides
standard fidelity and non-negligent loss coverage with
respect to the Securities and Cash which may be held by
Subcustodians pursuant to this Agreement. The Bank
agrees that if at any time it for any reason
discontinues such coverage, it shall immediately give
sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the Customer.
The Bank need not maintain any insurance for the
benefit of the Customer.
(vii) Without limiting the foregoing, the Bank
shall not be liable for any loss which results from:
(1) the general risk of investing, or (2) investing or
holding Assets in a particular country including, but
not limited to, losses resulting from nationalization,
expropriation or other governmental actions; regulation
of the banking or securities industry; currency
restrictions, devaluations or fluctuations; and market
PAGE 9
conditions which prevent the orderly execution of securities
transactions or affect the value of Assets.
(viii) Neither party shall be liable to the other
for any loss due to forces beyond their control
including, but not limited to strikes or work
stoppages, acts of war or terrorism, insurrection,
revolution, nuclear fusion, fission or radiation, or
acts of God.
(b) Consistent with and without limiting the first
paragraph of this Section 12, it is specifically acknowledged
that the Bank shall have no duty or responsibility to:
(i) question Instructions or make any suggestions to
the Customer or an Authorized Person regarding such
Instructions;
(ii) supervise or make recommendations with respect to
investments or the retention of Securities;
(iii) advise the Customer or an Authorized Person
regarding any default in the payment of principal or
income of any security other than as provided in
Section 5(c) of this Agreement;
(iv) evaluate or report to the Customer or an
Authorized Person regarding the financial condition of
any broker, agent (other than a Subcustodian) or other
party to which Securities are delivered or payments are
made pursuant to this Agreement;
(v) review or reconcile trade confirmations received
from brokers. The Customer or its Authorized Persons
(as defined in Section 10) issuing Instructions shall
bear any responsibility to review such confirmations
against Instructions issued to and statements issued by
the Bank.
(c) The Customer authorizes the Bank to act under this
Agreement notwithstanding that the Bank or any of its divisions
or affiliates may have a material interest in a transaction, or
circumstances are such that the Bank may have a potential
conflict of duty or interest including the fact that the Bank or
any of its affiliates may provide brokerage services to other
customers, act as financial advisor to the issuer of Securities,
act as a lender to the issuer of Securities, act in the same
transaction as agent for more than one customer, have a material
interest in the issue of Securities, or earn profits from any of
the activities listed herein.
13. Fees and Expenses.
PAGE 10
The Customer agrees to pay the Bank for its services under
this Agreement such amount as may be agreed upon in writing,
together with the Bank's reasonable out-of-pocket or incidental
expenses, including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees.
The Bank shall have a lien on and is authorized to charge any
Accounts of the Customer for any amount owing to the Bank under
any provision of this Agreement upon notice to the Customer.
14. Miscellaneous.
(a) Foreign Exchange Transactions. Pursuant to
Instructions, which may be standing Instructions, to facilitate
the administration of the Customer's trading and investment
