Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with Registrant
Not applicable.
Item 30. Indemnification
Registrant's Declaration of Trust, Item 28(a) of this Registration Statement, provides, in summary, that officers and trustees shall be indemnified by Registrant against liabilities and expense incurred by such persons in connection with actions, suits, or proceedings arising out of their offices or duties of employment, except that no indemnification can be made to such a person if in a final court decision on the merits that person has been adjudged liable of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties. In the absence of such an adjudication, the determination of eligibility for indemnification shall be made by independent counsel in a written opinion or by the vote of a majority of a quorum of trustees/directors who are neither "interested persons" of Registrant, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, nor parties to the proceeding.
Registrant may purchase and maintain liability insurance on behalf of any officer, trustee, director, employee or agent against any liabilities arising from such status. In this regard, Registrant will maintain a Trustee & Officers (Partners) Liability Insurance Policy with Chubb Group of Insurance Companies, 15 Mountain View Road, Warren, New Jersey 07061, providing Registrant with $10 million in trustees and officers liability coverage, plus $5 million in excess trustees and officers liability coverage for the independent trustees/directors only. Registrant also maintains a $13 million Investment Company Blanket Bond issued by ICI Mutual Insurance Company, P.O. Box 730, Burlington, Vermont 05402. The Fund maintains joint coverage with the other Calvert Funds, and for the liability coverage, with the Advisor and its affiliated companies ("Calvert operating companies.") The premium and the coverage are allocated based on a method approved by the independent Fund trustees.
