C.Additional Requirements - Portfolio Persons

 

If you are an Employee who is a Portfolio Person with respect to a Client, you are subject to the blackout periods listed below. The blackout periods are intended to allow Clients the opportunity to trade before you do for yourself. Transactions that do not require preclearance under Sections III.B.2. and III.B.3. of this Code are not subject to these blackout periods. Regardless of whether you are required to preclear your trade, you must not take inappropriate advantage of your position as a Portfolio Person in violation of this Code.

 

 

1.Personal Securities Transactions within Five Calendar Days prior to or after a Client Trade. A Portfolio Person may not enter into a Personal Securities Transaction in a Security prior to, and including, 5 calendar days before or after transacting in the same Security or a Related Financial Instrument for that Client. Similarly, a Portfolio Person may not enter into a Personal Securities Transaction in a Security prior to, and including, 5 calendar days before or after a Client if the Portfolio Person knows of another Portfolio Person’s intention to transact in the same Security or a Related Financial Instrument for that Client. Thus, if you personally transact in a Security within 5 calendar days before or after (inclusive) of a Client
 
 

trade in the same Security or a Related Financial Instrument, your Personal Securities Transaction will be considered a violation of this Code unless the client trade was directed by someone else without your knowledge or you obtained prior approval from a Compliance Officer.

 

2.Portfolio Person Required Representation. If you are a Portfolio Person, prior to entering into a Personal Securities Transaction, you must represent in your preclearance request that you are not aware of any pending trades or proposed trades in the same Security or a Related Financial Instrument for any Client in the next 5 calendar days. Please consider the timing of your personal trades carefully.

 

D.Additional Requirements - Research Analysts

 

If you are a Research Analyst, you are subject to the requirements and restrictions listed below. Note that you may be both a Research Analyst and a Portfolio Person. If you are both, you must comply with the requirements of Section III.C. and Section III.D. of this Code.

 

The blackout periods described below are intended to allow Clients the opportunity to act upon your recommendations and research conclusions regarding a Financial Instrument before you do for yourself. Transactions that do not require preclearance under Sections III.B.2.   and III.B.3. of this Code are not subject to these blackout periods. Regardless of whether you are required to preclear your trade, you must not take inappropriate advantage of your position as a Research Analyst in violation of this Code.

 

 

1.Restrictions on Personal Securities Transactions for Securities in Your Coverage Area. If you are a Research Analyst, you may not enter into a Personal Securities Transaction in any Security for which you have coverage responsibility:

 

·if you are in the process of making a new or changed recommendation or conclusion for the Security or a Related Financial Instrument, but you have not yet broadly communicated your new or changed recommendation or conclusion to the Portfolio Persons in your department;
·until the 5th calendar day after you have broadly communicated your new or changed recommendation or research conclusion throughout the relevant investment group; or
·you have first determined, with the prior concurrence of a Compliance Officer, that investment in that Security or a Related Financial Instrument is not suitable for any Client.

 

If you have any questions about the scope of your coverage responsibilities for purposes of this Code, contact a Compliance Officer.

 

 

 

 
 
2.Disclose Beneficial Interests. If you are a Research Analyst, before you make a recommendation that a Financial Instrument be purchased, sold or held by a Client, you must disclose to any Portfolio Person to whom you make the recommendation any direct or indirect Beneficial Interest you may have in that Financial Instrument.

 

3.Research Analyst Required Representations. If you are a Research Analyst, prior to entering into a Personal Securities Transaction, you must represent in your preclearance request that you are not aware of any pending trades or proposed trades in the same Financial Instrument or a Related Financial Instrument for any Client to occur in the next 5 calendar days. Please consider the timing of your personal trades carefully.

 

E.Provisions Applicable to All Employees that May Restrict Personal Securities Transactions

 

If your Personal Securities Transaction is required to be precleared pursuant to Section III.B. of this Code and falls within one of the following categories, your preclearance request will generally be denied by the Compliance Officer. It is your responsibility to initially determine if any of the following categories apply to your situation or transaction.

 

1.Client Orders and Pending Orders. If on the day you seek preclearance and approval to enter into a Personal Securities Transaction for a Security, (a) the Security or a Related Financial Instrument has been purchased or sold by that Client; or (b) there is a pending Client order in the Security or a Related Financial Instrument, then you CANNOT trade the Security and your preclearance request will be denied. This prohibition is in addition to any other requirements or prohibitions in this Code that may be applicable.

 

2.Research Recommendations or Conclusions. If within the 5 calendar days prior to and including the day you seek preclearance and approval to enter into a Personal Securities Transaction for a Security, (a) that Security or a Related Financial Instrument has been added to or removed from the Analyst Select Portfolio or Counselors Focus Portfolio, or an existing position in the Analyst Select Portfolio or Counselors Focus Portfolio has been increased or decreased, (b) the WPP of that Security or a Related Financial Instrument has been changed on Code Red/FactSet RMS,5 or (c) for purposes of the CRM, that Security (or its issuer) has been designed as “eligible” or “ineligible” or its designation as a “eligible” or “ineligible” has changed, then you CANNOT trade the Security and your preclearance request will be denied.

 

This prohibition is in addition to any other requirements or prohibitions in this Code that may be applicable.

 

3.Restricted Securities List. The Legal and Compliance department maintains and periodically updates various restricted securities lists that contain certain securities that may not be traded by certain Employees. Requests to purchase or sell any security on a restricted securities list applicable to that Employee will be denied.

 

 

 

 

5The WPP is the “weighted price potential” of the security as determined by a Research Analyst in the Eaton Vance Management or Eaton Vance Advisers International Ltd. Equity Department. The amount the WPP must change in order to trigger the restriction in Section III.E.2. of this Code will be determined from time to time by the Eaton Vance Chief Equity Investment Officer.
 
 

 

4.Blackout Period related to the Reconstitution of a Calvert Index. If you are an Employee with knowledge of the decisions of the CRM Research, Review and Recommendation Committee or the CRM Index Committee (or any new or successor committees that CRM may form to perform similar functions) as determined by the CRM Chief Compliance Officer or her designee, for the 5 calendar days prior to and including the day that the relevant Calvert Index is reconstituted, you may NOT enter into a Personal Securities Transaction in your personal account. A Compliance Officer will notify you if you are subject to this blackout period.

 

5.Limitations on Certain Types of Investment Instruments and Transactions. You may NOT enter into Personal Securities Transactions in Derivatives (including Futures, forward contracts, including currency forwards, physical commodities and related derivatives, over-the-counter warrants or swaps). You are prohibited from selling (“writing”) a put. The prohibition on commodities trading applies to trades directly on commodities markets rather than holding the physical commodity (e.g., gold bullion). The following is a list of permitted options trading:
·Call Options – Listed Call Options: You may purchase a listed call option if the call option has a “period to expiration” of at least 30 calendar days from the date of purchase and you hold the call option for at least 30 calendar days prior to sale. If you choose to exercise the option, you must also hold the underlying security delivered pursuant to the exercise for 30 calendar days.
·Call Options – Covered Calls: You may also sell (or “write”) a call option only if you have held the underlying security (in the corresponding amount) for at least 30 calendar days.
·Put Options – Listed Put Options: You may purchase a listed put option if the put option has a “period to expiration” of at least 30 calendar days from the date of purchase and you hold the put option for at least 30 calendar days prior to sale. If you purchase a put option on a security you already own, you may exercise the put once you have held the underlying security for 30 calendar days. If you purchase a put on a security that you do not own, you may not exercise the put; and must sell the option prior to its expiration date.

 

 

You must obtain pre-clearance approval prior to exercising an option or purchasing or selling an option.

 

6.Limitations on Short Sales. You may not sell any Security short.

 

7.Short-Term Trading. You may not sell a Security until at least 30 calendar days after the most recent purchase trade date of the same or equivalent Security. You may not repurchase a Security until at least 30 calendar days after the most recent sale trade date of the same or equivalent Security. You may not trade partial positions or use First In – First Out (“FIFO”) principles to enter into or trade out of positions of the same Security. (NOTE: Transactions subject to Section B.2 and B.3 are not subject to this prohibition.)

 
 

 

 

8.Initial Public Offerings, Private Placements and Investments in Hedge Funds. As a general matter, you should expect that most preclearance requests involving initial public offerings will be denied. If your proposed transaction is an initial public offering, a private placement, or an investment in a hedge fund, the Compliance Officer will determine whether the investment opportunity should be reserved for Clients.6

 

 

9.Additional Restrictions Related to Designated Issuers and Limited Persons. If you are an Employee who:

 

·has been designated as a Limited Person under the Non-Public Information and Ethical Wall Policy (the “Ethical Wall Policy”) with respect to a Designated Issuer (as defined in the Ethical Wall Policy); or
·has otherwise been permitted access to the investment portfolio records relating to a Designated Issuer pursuant to the Ethical Wall Policy, you may NOT enter into a Personal Securities Transaction for a Security or a Related Financial Instrument issued by such Designated Issuer until the ethical wall concerning such Designated Issuer has been lifted in accordance with the Ethical Wall Policy.

 

10.Employees Designated to be “Above the Wall”. Employees in the Legal and Compliance Division, Internal Audit Division, and the Global Risk & Analysis Super Department are designated to be “Above the Wall” (“ATW”) and their personal securities transactions may be subject to additional monitoring by the Control Group. Other employees may also be subject to the ATW checks as deemed necessary by the Control Group.

 

11.Employee Trading Policies for Morgan Stanley Management Committee Members. Please note, Morgan Stanley Management Committee members are also subject to the Employee Trading Policy for the Management Committee and the Operating Committee (the “Management Committee Policy”).

 

12.Section 16 Holding Periods. Pursuant to U.S. federal securities laws, trustees, directors and officers of Morgan Stanley Closed-End Funds or Eaton Vance Closed- End Funds, and certain Employees involved in managing such Funds may not benefit from purchasing and selling, or selling and purchasing, shares of these Funds within 6 months of each other, and must file SEC Forms 4 regarding their transactions in shares of these Funds. If you are in this category, a Compliance Officer will notify you and assist you in filing these Forms, and you will not receive pre-clearance for any purchase or sale that would violate the six-month restriction. Therefore, if you are in this category, you should expect to hold the shares you purchase for at least 6 months.

 

 

 

6This restriction also applies to a one-time offering of a Security to the public by the issuer which is not the initial public offering of such Security.
 
 

 

13.Investment Clubs. You may not be a member of an investment club that trades in and owns Financial Instruments in which members have an interest. Such an investment club is regarded by this Code as your personal account, and it is usually impracticable for you to comply with the rules of this Code, such as preclearance of transactions, with respect to that investment club.

 

IV.Your Ongoing Responsibilities Under This Code

 

This Code imposes ongoing responsibilities on you as outlined below. These ongoing responsibilities apply to all Employees, including Affiliate Office Employees. If you have questions about those responsibilities please contact a Compliance Officer.

 

A.Market Abuse and Insider Trading

 

The fiduciary principles of this Code and the Securities and Commodities Laws prohibit you from interfering or attempting to interfere with the free and fair operation of the financial market or creating or attempting to create artificial, false or misleading appearances with respect to the price of, or market for, any Financial Instrument. Trading based on material, non-public information (“MNPI”) relating to a Financial Instrument, its underlying Security (if applicable) or the issuer of the Financial Instrument or its underlying Security (if applicable) received from any source and/or communicating MNPI to others is one form of market abuse.7 If you are aware of any instance of suspected market abuse, please consult a Compliance Officer and the relevant Firm policy in prevention of insider trading.

 

B.Excessive Trading and Market Timing of Mutual Fund Shares

 

You are subject to the terms and restrictions of an open-end Fund’s prospectus, including restrictions such Fund may impose on excessive trading. You may not engage in trading of shares of an open-end Fund that is inconsistent with the prospectus of that Fund.

 

C.Compliance with Securities Laws

 

You must comply with all applicable Securities and Commodities Laws of any relevant jurisdiction(s).

 

 

D.Duty to Report Violations of this Code

 

You are required to promptly report any violation of this Code of which you become aware, whether your own or that of another Employee. Reports of violations other than your own may be made anonymously and confidentially to the Chief Compliance Officer. Affiliate Office Employees may report violations to the Chief Compliance Officer of Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (the “Parametric CCO”) or a designee.

 

 

 

 

7Employees located in the United States should consult the Policies and Procedures in Prevention of Insider Trading for additional information about MNPI. Affiliate Office Employees should consult the Insider Trading Policy of Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC. The insider trading prohibition described above also applies to MNPI received with respect to Funds or Sub-advised Funds. Non- public information regarding an open-end mutual Fund or Sub-advised Fund is MNPI if such information could materially impact that Fund’s net asset value.

 

 
 

 

 

E.Right to Communicate Directly with Governmental, Regulatory or Self-Regulatory Bodies

 

Nothing in this Code restricts or prohibits you from initiating communications directly with, responding to any inquiries from, providing testimony before, providing confidential information to, reporting possible violations of law or regulation to, or from filing a claim or assisting with an investigation directly with a self-regulatory authority or a government agency or entity, including without limitation, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the Department of Labor, the National Labor Relations Board, the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Securities

 

and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Commodities Futures Trading Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the U.S. Congress, any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission, and any agency Inspector General (collectively, the "Regulators"), or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal, state or local law or regulation. This Code does not limit your right to receive an award from any Regulator that provides awards for information relating to a potential violation of law. You do not need prior authorization to engage in conduct protected by this paragraph, and do not need to notify the Chief Compliance Officer that you have engaged in such conduct. You recognize and agree that, in connection with any such activity outlined above, you must inform the Regulators, your attorney, a court or a government official that the information you are providing is confidential. Despite the foregoing, you are not permitted to reveal to any third-party, including any governmental, law enforcement, or regulatory authority, information you came to learn during the course of your employment that is protected from disclosure by any applicable privilege, including but not limited to the attorney-client privilege and/or attorney work product doctrine. The Firm does not waive any applicable privileges or the right to continue to protect privileged attorney-client information, attorney work product, and other privileged information.

 

Please take notice that federal law provides criminal and civil immunity from federal and state claims for trade secret misappropriation to individuals who disclose a trade secret to their attorney, a court, or a government official in certain, confidential circumstances that are set forth at 18 U.S.C. §§ 1833(b)(1) and 1833(b)(2), related to the reporting or investigation of a suspected violation of the law, or in connection with a lawsuit for retaliation for reporting a suspected violation of the law.

 

F.Your Actions are Subject to Review by a Compliance Officer and Your Supervisor

 

A Compliance Officer may undertake any investigation he or she considers necessary to determine if any of your Personal Securities Transactions violate this Code, including conducting both pre- and post-trade monitoring. A Compliance Officer may impose measures intended to avoid potential conflicts of interest or to address any trading that requires additional scrutiny, which may include restrictions and/or requirements in addition to those explicitly set forth in this Code. In addition to a Compliance Officer, your department head and/or supervisor may, unless restricted by relevant regulations, review

your personal trading activity on a periodic or more frequent basis. This individual will work with a Compliance Officer on any such reviews. For Affiliate Office Employees, any such investigation or review will be conducted by the Parametric CCO or a designee.

 

The Firm has engaged the services of an independent employee surveillance program specialist to research its database for any accounts opened by an Employee (other than a Affiliate Office Employee) to determine whether or not such account is (1) maintained with one or more Approved Brokers, and (2) properly reported pursuant to the Code. On a periodic basis, the Firm may also request information pursuant to FINRA Rule 3210(c) from selected brokerage firms not covered by the services of the independent employee surveillance program specialist.

 
 

 

G.Consequences for Violations of this Code

 

If determined appropriate by a Compliance Officer, you may be subject to remedial actions:

 

·if you violate this Code; or
·to protect the integrity and reputation of the Firm even in the absence of a proven violation.

 

Such remedial actions may include, but are not limited to, full or partial disgorgement of the profits you earned on an investment transaction, restricting personal trading, consideration of such violation during your year-end performance and discretionary compensation review, censure, demotion, suspension or dismissal, or any other sanction or remedial action required or permitted by law, rule or regulation. As part of any remedial action, you may be required to reverse an investment transaction and forfeit any profit or absorb any loss from the transaction.

 

A Compliance Officer shall have the authority to determine whether you have violated this Code and, if so, to impose the remedial actions they consider appropriate or required by law, rule or regulation. In making a determination, a Compliance Officer may consider, among other factors, the gravity of your violation, the frequency of your violations, whether any violation caused harm or the potential of harm to a Client or to the Firm or its reputation, your efforts to cooperate with the Compliance Officer’s investigation, and your efforts to correct any conduct that led to a violation. For Affiliate Office Employees decisions related to violation determinations and remedial actions will be made by the Parametric CCO or a designee.

 

V.YOUR REPORTING REQUIREMENTS

1.Approved Brokers. You and your Immediate Family Members must maintain your Personal Brokerage Accounts at a Morgan Stanley Broker or a Firm-approved third party broker (“Approved Broker”). The list of Approved Brokers is accessible through the StarCompliance System. If you maintain a Personal Brokerage Account at a broker- dealer other than at an Approved Broker, you will need to close those accounts or transfer them to an Approved Broker within 90 calendar days of notice by a Compliance Officer. Upon opening a Personal Brokerage Account at an Approved Broker, Employees (other than Employees who are EVD Reporting Persons and subject to Section V.B.1.a. of this Code) are required to disclose the Personal Brokerage Account to a Compliance Officer. By maintaining your Personal Brokerage Account with one or more of the Approved Brokers, you and your Immediate Family Member’s quarterly and annual trade summaries will be sent directly to the Compliance department for review. If you are a EVD Reporting Person you must comply with the requirements of Section V.B.1.a. of this Code below. To reiterate, if you open an outside account without obtaining the required Compliance pre-approval, you must immediately disclose it to Compliance. You may be required to close such account.

 

a.Additional Requirements - EVD Reporting Persons. If you are an Employee who is also a EVD Reporting Person, you are required to submit a written notice to a Compliance Officer prior to establishing any new Personal Brokerage Account or placing an order for the purchase or sale of any Security with any broker, dealer or bank (which must be an Approved Broker) on such Account. The notice must identify the Approved Broker on such account.

 

For purposes of FINRA Rule 3210, this Code constitutes the prior written consent of the Chief Compliance Officer of Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (“EVD”) for any account opened or otherwise established by a EVD Reporting Person with an Approved Broker. If a EVD Reporting Person maintains a Personal Brokerage Account with an entity other than an Approved Broker, that EVD Reporting Person must obtain the written consent of the EVD Chief Compliance Officer or his designee.8

 

b.Non-Approved Brokers. If you maintain Personal Brokerage Accounts with broker-dealers who are not on the list of Approved Brokers, please contact the Compliance Officer to arrange for providing quarterly and annual reports.

 

2.Initial Holdings Report. Within 10 calendar days of becoming an Employee, you must submit to a Compliance Officer an Initial Report of Personal Brokerage Accounts and all holdings in Securities (except Non-Reportable Securities), current within 45 calendar days of the date the report is submitted.

 

 

 

8If the account (1) includes only shares of Funds or Sub-advised Funds and is held with such Fund’s transfer agent or (2) includes only shares of Funds purchased through the Eaton Vance retirement plan, this Code constitutes the prior written consent of the EVD Chief Compliance Officer for such an account.
 
 

 

 

3.Annual Holdings Report. Between January 1st and January 30th (or the last business day preceding January 31st in any year when January 31st falls on a weekend) of each year, you must submit to a Compliance Officer an Annual Report of Personal Brokerage Accounts and all holdings in Securities (except Non-Reportable Securities), current within 45 calendar days of the date the report is submitted.

 

4.Quarterly Transaction Report. Within 30 calendar days after the end of each calendar quarter, you must submit to a Compliance Officer a report of your transactions in Securities (except Exempt Transactions) during that quarter. The form of report is available from a Compliance Officer. You do not have to submit a quarterly transaction report if copies of all of your transaction confirmations and account statements are provided to a Compliance Officer for that quarter by the broker(s) and those confirmations and statements contain all the information required in a quarterly transaction report.

 

5.Changes in Your Immediate Family Members. You must notify a Compliance Officer of any change to your Immediate Family Members (e.g., as a result of a marriage, divorce, legal separation, death, adoption, movement from your household or change in dependence status) that may affect the Personal Brokerage Accounts for which you have reporting or other responsibilities.

A.Rules Applicable to All Access Persons11

 

The following rules will be enforced for all Access Persons unless otherwise individually exempted or pre-approved in writing by the Parametric CCO.

1.Appendix II Rules Applicable to Use of a Designated Broker

 

All Securities Accounts must be maintained with a Designated Broker, unless:

 

·the account is a Managed Account and has been approved as such by the Parametric CCO;
·the account is subject to a code of ethics or similar policy applicable to a member of your Immediate Family requiring an account be held at an entity other than a Designated Broker, in which case you must provide Securities Transactions and holdings information for such account to Compliance no less than quarterly and within 30 calendar days after the end of each calendar quarter; or
·you are located in Parametric’s Australia office, in which case you must provide Securities Transactions and holdings information for each Securities Account to Compliance no less than quarterly and within 30 calendar days after the end of each calendar quarter.

 

You must initiate movement of all pre-established Securities Accounts to a Designated Broker within 30 calendar days after your employment date or the date you become an Access Person.12

 

2.            Prohibited Practices

 

You are prohibited from engaging in the following transactions and practices.

 

a)Front Running

 

Front Running is the practice of effecting the purchase or sale of a Security for personal benefit based on the knowledge of one or more impending Client transaction(s) in the same or equivalent Security. (Example: A Portfolio Manager mentions that Parametric is selling all of its holdings of Company X and you know that the large trade will negatively affect the stock, so you put in a personal order to sell your shares of Company X before the Parametric order is sent to the market.)

 

b)Market Manipulation

 

Transactions intended to raise, lower or maintain the price of any security or to create a false appearance of active trading are prohibited.

c)Derivatives and Options Trading

 

Derivatives transactions, including options, futures and swaps are prohibited.

 

 

 

 

 

 

12 Additional brokers, dealers or banks may be considered. You may maintain an existing account you established with a broker, dealer or bank that is not a Designated Broker if you were an Access Person of Parametric prior to January 1, 2013 and the account was established with such broker, dealer or bank prior to January 1, 2013.

 
 

 

d)Short-Term Trading

 

You may not sell a Security until at least 60 calendar days after the most recent purchase trade date of the same or equivalent Security. You may not repurchase a Security until at least 60 calendar days after the most recent sale trade date of the same or equivalent Security. You may not trade partial positions or use FIFO principles to enter into or trade out of positions of the same Security. (NOTE: Exempt Transactions below are not subject to this prohibition.)

 

e)Public Company Ownership Limit

 

You may not own more than 0.5% of the outstanding shares of any one public company without written approval from the Parametric CCO.

 

3.Pre-Clearance Requirements

 

You are prohibited from engaging in the following transactions without written pre- approval as indicated. Preclearance requests for the following transactions must be submitted via StarCompliance.

a)Morgan Stanley Securities

 

You must pre-clear all transactions in publicly-traded Securities issued by Morgan Stanley, except that you do not have to pre-clear (i) purchases pursuant to the MS Employee Stock Purchase Plan (or related plan) or to the exercise of any MS stock option agreement, (ii) bona fide gifts of such MS Securities that you may receive, or (iii) automatic, non- voluntary transactions involving such MS Securities, such as stock dividends, stock splits, or automatic dividend reinvestments, or certain non-voluntary transactions initiated by a broker, dealer or bank with respect to such MS Securities deposited in a margin account. Once obtained, approval is valid only for the day on which it is granted. (NOTE: The purchase or sale of publicly traded options on MS Securities is prohibited.)

 

There are times when transactions in MS Securities are routinely prohibited, such as prior to releases of MS earnings information. You will normally be notified of these blackout periods, during which time trading in MS Securities is prohibited.

 

Failure to preclear transactions in MS Securities may result in the imposition of a fine to be donated to an acceptable charitable organization, as well as additional sanctions as outlined below in the Violations and Sanctions section of this Appendix II.

b)Initial Public Offerings

 

You may not purchase or otherwise acquire any Security in an Initial Public Offering, except with prior written approval from the Parametric CCO. Requests to purchase Securities in an Initial Public Offering will generally be denied by the Parametric CCO. Approval may be granted only in rare cases that involve extraordinary circumstances. Accordingly, Parametric discourages such applications. You may be given approval to purchase a Security in an Initial Public Offering, for example, pursuant to the exercise of rights you have as an existing bank depositor or insurance policyholder to acquire the Security in connection with the bank’s conversion from mutual or cooperative form to stock form, or the insurance company’s conversion from mutual to stock form.

 
 

 

Participation in an initial or secondary offering of a Cryptocurrency (sometimes referred to as an initial coin offering (ICO) or a secondary coin offering (SCO)) requires preclearance and approval by the CCO under this Code.

 

c)Private Placements

 

You may not purchase or otherwise acquire any Security in a Private Placement, except with prior written approval from the Parametric CCO. (Note that a Private Placement includes virtually any Security that is not a publicly traded/listed Security.) Such approval will only be granted where you establish that there is no conflict or appearance of conflict with any Client or other possible impropriety (such as where the Security in the Private Placement is appropriate for purchase by a Client, or when your participation in the Private Placement is suggested by a person who has a business relationship with Parametric or its affiliates or expects to establish such a relationship). Examples where approval may be granted, subject to the particular facts and circumstances, are a personal investment in a private fund or limited partnership in which you would have no involvement in making recommendations or decisions, or your investment in a closely held corporation or partnership started by a family member or friend.

 

4.Exempt Transactions

 

The following transactions are exempt from the Restricted Transactions and Reporting Requirements sections and the Short-Term Trading prohibition of this Appendix II, unless noted otherwise:

 

·The purchase of Securities effected pursuant to an Automatic Investment Plan (the sale of Securities acquired under an automated investment plan is exempt from the Short- Term Trading prohibition but is subject to all other rules herein);
·Transactions effected by exercise of rights issued to the holders of a class of Securities pro rata, to the extent they are issued with respect to Securities ofwhich you have Beneficial Interest;

·Transactions effected in an approved Managed Account (note that there are reporting requirements and other restrictions related to Managed Accounts, as outlined below in the Managed Accounts section of this Appendix II); and
·The acquisition of Securities, such as stock grants and employee stock options, received as compensation from an employer or the purchase of stock through an employer’s stock purchase plan (“ESPP”). (NOTE: The sale of Securities received from an employer or purchased via an ESPP is exempt from the Short-Term Trading prohibition but is subject to all other provisions of this Appendix II.) This provision does not apply to MS Securities, which you are required to pre-clear.

The following Securities Transactions are restricted as indicated, but do not require pre- clearance. These restrictions do not apply to Exempt Transactions of this Appendix II, unless specified otherwise.

At the discretion of the Parametric CCO, you may from time to time be temporarily restricted from all personal Securities trading (a “blackout period”).

You will be notified of all such personal Securities trading blackout periods and restricted Securities transactions in writing by the Parametric CCO.

d)New Accounts

 

You must report new Securities Accounts to Compliance within 10 calendar days of establishing the account. You may do so by entering the account in StarCompliance or notifying Compliance in writing. You may not purchase or sell Securities in the new account until the electronic data feed for the account has been established in StarCompliance.

 

New Securities Accounts (not including Managed Accounts) of Access Persons registered with FINRA through Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (“EVD”) are automatically approved for purposes of FINRA Rule 3210, if they are established with a Designated Broker. Any exception, whereby an Access Person registered with FINRA maintains a Securities Account with a broker, dealer or bank other than a Designated Broker, requires written consent of the EVD Chief Compliance Officer or designee.

 

 
 

 

 

7.Managed Accounts14

 

Managed Accounts must be approved as such in writing by the Parametric CCO. The Parametric CCO’s approval of a Managed Account is contingent upon the provision of a signed letter from the broker, financial advisor, trustee or other control person other than you or your Immediate Family member (the “Discretionary Manager”) on the Discretionary Manager’s letterhead containing the following representations:15

 

·Neither you nor your Immediate Family member have investment discretion or any direct or indirect influence or control over the account, and in particular you do not:
oDirector or suggest the purchase or sale of Securities to the Discretionary Manager; or
oConsult with the Discretionary Manager as to the particular allocation of specific Securities investments to be made in the account (including situations where the Discretionary Manager requests input and/or permission from you or your Immediate Family member prior to transacting).
·The relationship between the Discretionary Manager and you and your Immediate Family member is limited to a professional, client-adviser relationship (i.e., the Discretionary Manager is not a family member or close personal friend, and no Immediate Family member of yours is employed by the Discretionary Manager).
·All transactions in MS Securities will either be restricted from being purchased or sold in the Managed Account or will be pre-cleared pursuant to this Appendix II.

 

You must also acknowledge the above representations in writing to the Parametric CCO and agree to immediately notify the Parametric CCO if any of the above representations are no longer accurate.

 

Securities Transactions in approved Managed Accounts are exempt from the Short-Term Trading prohibition and Restricted Transactions sections of this Appendix II, but are still subject to the Pre-Clearance Requirements section of this Appendix II (Initial Public Offerings, Private Placements and MS Securities transactions in approved Managed Accounts still require written preapproval). However, you must ensure the Discretionary Manager provides account holdings and transactions information to Compliance either electronically via StarCompliance, if possible, or via annual account statements within 30 calendar days after the end of the calendar year. Securities Transactions in Managed Accounts will be subject to review from time to time by the Parametric CCO to determine if any purchase or sale of a Security would have been prohibited pursuant to this Appendix II, absent relying on the exemption provided herein.

 

Annually, within 30 calendar days of each calendar year end, you must re-certify in writing to the Parametric CCO the above representations regarding each Managed Account. Failure to do so will result in the account no longer qualifying as a Managed Account under this Appendix II. The Annual Managed Account Certification is administered via StarCompliance.

 

NOTE: There is no exemption from pre-clearance for Initial Public Offerings or Private Placements, even when such transactions are effected through a Managed Account. You should ensure the Discretionary Manager of your Managed Account(s) is aware of this restriction.

 

 

14 See the Definitions section of this Appendix II.

 

15 If the letter from the Discretionary Manager does not include all of the above representations above, the Parametric CCO may determine via other means at his or her discretion, including via a signed certification and acknowledgement from the employee, that the account qualifies as a Managed Account.

 
 

 

 

B.Additional Rules Applicable to Seattle Investment Personnel16

 

1.Requirement to Pre-Notify Parametric CCO of Personal Securities Transactions

 

Seattle Investment Personnel are required to pre-notify the Parametric CCO of intended personal Securities Transactions (including those of Immediate Family members) one business day prior to transacting via StarCompliance.

 

2.Blackout Periods and Restricted Securities Lists

Seattle Investment Personnel will be notified of all such personal trading blackout periods and restricted securities lists in writing by the Parametric CCO.

 

C.Violations and Sanctions

 

Any employee or Access Person working in an Affiliate Office who violates any provision of this Appendix II may be subject to sanction, including, but not limited to, censure, a temporary or permanent ban on personal securities trading, disgorgement of any profit or taking of any loss, fines, consideration of such violation during the year-end performance and discretionary compensation review process, and suspension or termination of employment.

16 Seattle Investment Personnel is defined in the section below - Defined Terms used in the Appendix II.

 

 

 
 

 

Beneficial Interest with respect to Securities or a Securities Account generally means an interest where you or a member of your Immediate Family, directly or indirectly, (i) have investment discretion or the ability (including joint ability or discretion) to purchase or sell Securities or direct the disposition of Securities; (ii) have voting power over Securities, or the right to direct the voting of Securities; or (iii) have a direct or indirect financial interest in Securities (or other benefit substantially equivalent to ownership of Securities). For purposes of this Appendix II, “beneficial ownership” shall be interpreted in the same manner as it would be under Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Client is any person or entity for which Parametric provides investment advisory services.

 

Closed-End Fund means any fund with a fixed number of shares and which does not issue and redeem shares on a continuous basis. While Closed-End Funds are often listed and trade on stock exchanges, they are not “Exchange Traded Funds” as defined below.

 

Control means with respect to (i) an entity, the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management or policies of the entity, unless such power is solely the result of an official position of such entity, (ii) an account, having investment discretion over the account, and (iii) an issuer (including an Affiliated Fund), a Beneficial Interest in more than 25% of the voting securities of the issuer.

 

Cryptocurrency means any virtual or digital representation of value, token or other asset in which encryption techniques are used to regulate the generation of such assets and to verify

the transfer of assets, which is not a Security or otherwise characterized as a security under the relevant law. Cryptocurrencies that have been deemed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to be a Security are reportable under this Appendix II and must be held with a Designated Broker.

 

Designated Broker means any one of the following broker-dealer firms that provide electronic data feeds to StarCompliance: Ameriprise Financial; Betterment; Charles Schwab; Citigroup; E*Trade; Edward Jones; Fidelity; Interactive Brokers; JP Morgan Chase; Merrill Lynch; Morgan Stanley; Raymond James; RBC Wealth Management; Stifel Financial; TD Ameritrade; UBS; USAA; Vanguard; and Wells Fargo. Additional broker-dealers may be added or removed from this list over time. The current list of Designated Brokers may be found in StarCompliance and on the Parametric Intranet.

 

Exchange Traded Fund is a registered open-end investment company or unit investment trust that can be traded on an exchange throughout the day like a stock. Examples of Exchange Traded Funds include SPDR S&P 500 ETF (ticker: SPY), iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (ticker: EEM), and PowerShares QQQ (ticker: QQQ).

 

Exchange Traded Note is a debt security traded on a national securities exchange that is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Examples of Exchange Traded Notes include SPDR Gold Shares (ticker: GLD) or iShares Silver Trust (ticker: SLV), grantor trusts, or exchange-traded limited partnerships.

 

 
 

 

 

Immediate Family means: (1) any of the following persons sharing the same household with the Employee (which does not include temporary house guests): a person’s child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son- in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, legal guardian, adoptive relative, or significant other.

 

Initial Public Offering means an offering of securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, the issuer of which, immediately before the registration, was not subject to the reporting requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934. As used in this Appendix II, the term “Initial Public Offering” shall also mean a one-time offering of stock to the public by the issuer of such stock which is not an initial public offering.

 

Managed Account is an investment account in which you and your Immediate Family have no investment discretion or direct or indirect influence or control. No direct or indirect influence or control exists over an account where, for example, (a) you or your Immediate Family member is a grantor or beneficiary of a trust managed by a third-party trustee and he or she has limited involvement in trust affairs, or (b) the third-party manager (or other financial intermediary) acting as a third-party manager has discretionary investment authority over the account. However, direct or indirect influence or control will be deemed to exist where you or your Immediate Family member has discussions with the trustee or third-party manager that go beyond a summary, description or explanation of account positioning and/or activity. For example, any of the following actions by you or your Immediate Family member would qualify as direct or indirect influence or control over the account: (i) suggesting purchases or sales of investments to the trustee or third-party manager; directing the purchase or sale of Securities; or (iii) consulting with the trustee or third-party manager as to the purchase or sale of investments to be made in the account (including situations where the trustee or third-party

manager requests input and/or permission from you or your Immediate Family member before entering into a transaction). Managed Accounts must be approved as such by the Parametric CCO (see the Managed Accounts section of this Appendix II).

 

Mid/Large Cap Issuer is an issuer of Securities with an equity market capitalization of $3 billion or more.

 

MS – means Morgan Stanley.

 

Mutual Fund means open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (and does not include closed-end investment companies). For the avoidance of doubt, Exchange Traded Funds and Closed-End Funds are not considered to be Mutual Funds under this Appendix II.

 

Parametric CCO means the Chief Compliance Officer of Parametric or another person designated to perform the functions of the Chief Compliance Officer under various provisions of this Appendix II.

 

Private Placement means an offering that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) or Section 4(5) or pursuant to Rule 504, Rule 505 or Rule 506 under the Securities Act of 1933. A Private Placement thus includes any offer to you to purchase any securities, whether stock, debt securities, or partnership interests from any entity, unless those securities are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Investment Company Act of 1940 (that is, are publicly offered/publicly traded securities).

 

 
 

 

 

Seattle Investment Personnel includes all employees in the Portfolio Management, Trading and Research departments in Parametric’s Seattle office. Seattle office employees in other departments who may have access to pre-execution model portfolio transaction information may also be deemed Seattle Investment Personnel by the Parametric CCO for purposes of this Appendix. All Seattle Investment Personnel will be notified of such designation by the Parametric CCO.
