Item 29. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control With Registrant
Not applicable.
Item 30. Indemnification
Registrant's By-Laws, Item 28(b) of this Registration Statement, provides, in summary, that officers and trustees/directors shall be indemnified by Registrant against liabilities and expenses 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 he has been adjudged liable of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of his 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 an insurance policy, providing Registrant with trustees/directors and officers liability coverage, plus excess trustees/directors and officers liability coverage for the independent trustees/directors only. Registrant also maintains an Investment Company Blanket Bond. 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 disinterested Fund trustees/directors.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), may be permitted to directors, trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant and the principal underwriter pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 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, trustee, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant and the principal underwriter in connection with the successful defense of any action, suite or proceeding) is asserted against the Registrant by such director, trustee, officer or controlling person or principal underwriter in connection with the shares 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 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
