To the extent expressly permitted by the written policies and procedures established by the Board of Trustees, and subject to Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, any interpretations thereof by the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff, and other applicable law, the Sub-Adviser is permitted to pay a broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in tenns of either that paiticular transaction or the Sub-Adviser's overall responsibilities to the accounts as to which it exercises investment discretion.

For clarity, the Adviser (and not the Trust or the Fund) shall be obligated to pay the Sub-Adviser fees hereunder for any period only out of and following the Adviser's receipt from the Fund of advisory fees pursuant to Section 4 of the Investment Advisory Agreement for such period.

In the event of tennination of this Agreement, the fees provided in this Agreement will be computed on the basis of the period ending on the last business day on which this Agreement is in effect, subject to a pro rata adjustment based on the number of days the Sub-Adviser perfonned services hereunder during the fiscal quarter in which such termination becomes effective as a percentage of the total number of days in such quarter.

9.Force Majeure.
