MASTER FUND SERVICES AGREEMENT

 

This Agreement (the “Master Services Agreement” or “Agreement”), dated December __, 2021, is between Tactical Investment Series Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust, and M3Sixty Administration, LLC (“Service Provider”), an Delaware limited liability company.

 

This Agreement is intended to replace in its entirety any earlier dated investment company services agreement between Service Provider and the Trust with respect to the funds set forth in Schedule A attached hereto and any other such investment company services agreement with respect to the funds set forth in Schedule A shall be deemed terminated upon the effectiveness of this Agreement.

 

Background

The Trust is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and it desires that Service Provider perform certain services for each of its series listed on Schedule A (individually referred to herein as a “Fund” and collectively as the “Funds”). Service Provider is willing to perform such services on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and agreements of the parties contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

Terms and Conditions

1.Retention of Service Provider

 

The Trust retains Service Provider to act as the service provider on behalf of each Fund for the services set forth in each addendum to this Agreement (each, an “Addendum”) selected below (collectively, the “Services”), which are incorporated by reference into this Agreement. Service Provider accepts such employment to perform the selected Services.

 

Fund Accounting Addendum (Addendum B)

 

Fund Administration Addendum (Addendum C)

 

Transfer Agent and Shareholder Servicing Addendum (Addendum D)

 

Each selected Addendum is incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

 

The Trust and Service Provider hereby acknowledge that, in order to carry out the services set forth in each Addendum, Service Provider must necessarily rely on the provision of data or other information from third parties, including, but not limited to, investment adviser(s), sub-advisers, prime brokers, custodians, legal counsel, and independent accountants. The Trust and Service Provider therefore agree that, in the event of a third party’s refusal or inability to provide such data or other information as is necessary to carry out Service Provider’ services under this Agreement or any Addendum, Service Provider will not be in breach of this Agreement for its failure to provide the service(s) to the extent that Service Provider’ failure to provide such service(s) was a result of the third party’s refusal or inability to provide such data or other information as was necessary for Service Provider to carry out the service(s).
