WHEREAS, the Manager, acting pursuant to the Management Agreement, desires to retain the Subadvisers to provide investment advisory services to the Fund and to manage such portion of the Fund as the Manager shall from time to time direct, and the Subadvisers are willing to render such investment advisory services; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree as follows:

1. (a) Subject to the supervision of the Manager and the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the Board), the Subadvisers shall manage such portion of the Fund’s portfolio as delegated to the Subadvisers by the Manager, including the purchase, retention and disposition thereof, in accordance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies and restrictions as stated in its then current registration statement (such registration statement as currently in effect and as amended or supplemented from time to time, being herein called the Registration Statement), and subject to the following understandings:

(i) The Subadvisers shall provide supervision of such portion of the Fund’s investments as the Manager shall direct, and shall determine from time to time what investments and securities will be purchased, retained, sold or loaned by the Fund, and what portion of the assets will be invested or held uninvested as cash.

(ii) In the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Subadvisers shall act in conformity with the copies of the Declaration of Trust of the Fund, as amended, the By-laws of the Fund, the Registration Statement of the Fund, and the Fund’s valuation procedures and any other procedures adopted by the Board applicable to the Fund (and any amendments thereto) as provided to it by the Manager (the Fund Documents) and with the instructions and directions of the Manager and of the Board, co-operate with the Manager’s (or its designees’) personnel responsible for monitoring the Fund’s compliance and will conform to, and comply with, the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations.

The Manager shall provide Subadvisers timely with copies of any updated Fund Documents.

(iii) The Subadvisers shall determine the securities and other financial instruments to be purchased or sold by such portion of the Fund’s portfolio, as applicable, and may place orders with or through such persons, brokers, dealers or futures commission merchants (including but not limited to any broker, dealer or futures commission merchants affiliated with the Manager or the Subadvisers) to carry out the policy with respect to brokerage as set forth in the Fund’s Registration Statement or as the Board may direct in writing from time to time. In providing the Fund with investment supervision, it is recognized that the Subadvisers will give primary consideration to securing the most favorable price and efficient execution. Within the framework of this policy, the Subadvisers may consider the financial responsibility, research and investment information and other services provided by brokers, dealers or futures commission merchants who may effect or be a party to any such transaction or other transactions to which the Subadvisers’ other clients may be a party. The Manager (or Subadvisers) to the Fund each shall have discretion to effect investment transactions for the Fund through broker-dealers (including, to the extent legally permissible, broker-dealers affiliated with the Subadvisers) qualified to obtain best execution of such transactions who provide brokerage and/or research services, as such services are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 1934 Act), and to cause the Fund to pay any such broker-dealers an amount of commission for effecting a portfolio transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker-dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the brokerage or research services provided by such broker-dealer, viewed in light of either that particular investment transaction or the overall responsibilities of the Manager (or the Subadvisers) with respect to the Fund and other accounts as to which they or it may exercise investment discretion (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(35) of the 1934 Act), are reasonable in relation to the amount of commission. Pursuant to the rules promulgated under Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act, broker-dealers are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account with them. In accordance therewith, broker-dealers whom the Subadvisers selects to execute transactions in the Fund’s account may seek identifying information about the Fund.

On occasions when the Subadvisers deems the purchase or sale of a security or other financial instrument to be in the best interest of the Fund as well as other clients of the Subadvisers, the Subadvisers, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities or other financial instruments to be sold or purchased. In such event, allocation of the securities or other financial instruments so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadvisers in the manner the Subadvisers consider to be the most equitable and consistent with their fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other clients.
