CODE OF ETHICS WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS OF ACCESS PERSONS

Amended January 1, 2015

I.	INTRODUCTION

Rule 204A-1 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”) requires federally registered investment advisers to establish, maintain and enforce written codes of ethics that include, among other matters, standards of business conduct required of “supervised persons,” provisions requiring supervised persons to comply with applicable federal securities laws, provisions requiring “access persons” to report their personal securities transactions and holdings and obtain approval before they acquire beneficial ownership of any security in an initial public offering or private placement. This Code has been adopted by the Firm and is intended to comply with Advisers Act Rule 204A-1 and Investment Company act Rule 17j- 1.

Supervised Persons must comply with applicable federal securities laws, including the standards set forth in these two Rules. It is unlawful for any affiliated person of or principal underwriter for a Fund, or any affiliated person of an investment adviser of or principal underwriter for a Fund, in connection with the purchase or sale, directly or indirectly, by the person of a Security Held or to be Acquired by the Fund:

To employ any device, scheme or artifice to defraud the Fund;

To make any untrue statement of a material fact to the Fund or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made to the Fund, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading;

To engage in any act, practice or course of business that operates or would operate as a fraud or deceit on the Fund; or

To engage in any manipulative practice with respect to the Fund.

This Code is intended to provide guidance to Access Persons of the Firm in the conduct of their personal investments to eliminate the possibility of securities transactions occurring that place, or appear to place, such persons in conflict with the interests of advisory clients of the Firm. A copy of this Code is available upon request to advisory clients of the Firm.

Your receipt of this Code for your review and signature means that you are a person to whom the Code applies. You are required to acknowledge in writing that you have received a copy of this Code, as well as any amendments to the Code. You are required to certify annually that you have read, understood and complied with this Code. All certifications must be made via Compliance 11, the firm’s cloud-based compliance automation software.

If you have any questions concerning this Code, please contact the Chief Compliance Officer and/or the Firm’s counsel.

Chief Compliance Officer. “Chief Compliance Officer” means the Chief Compliance Officer as well as any designee appointed by such person.

Control. “Control” means the power to exercise a controlling influence over the management and policies of a company, unless such power is solely the result of an official position with such company.

Covered Security. “Covered Security” means any Security, except such term shall not include shares of registered open-end investment companies, direct obligations of the Government of the United States, bankers’ acceptances, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper or, high quality short-term debt instruments, including repurchase agreements.

Federal Securities Laws. “Federal Securities Laws” means the Securities Act of 1933, Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, any rules adopted by the SEC under any of these statutes, the Bank Secrecy Act as it applies to funds and investment advisers and any rules adopted by the SEC or the Department of the Treasury.

Initial Public Offering. “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 Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Private Placement. “Private Placement” means an offering of Securities that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) or Section 4(6) thereto or pursuant to Rule 504, Rule 505, or Rule 506 thereunder.

IV.	RESTRICTIONS ON PERSONAL INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Prior Clearance Required for All Transactions in Covered Securities. Unless the transaction is exempt under Section V below, no Access Person may directly or indirectly, initiate, recommend, or in any other way participate in the purchase or sale of a Covered Security in which such Access Person has, or by reason of the transaction may acquire, any direct or indirect beneficial interest, without first obtaining prior clearance for such transaction from the Chief Compliance Officer. For purposes of this procedure, an Access Person is deemed to have a beneficial interest in any securities account of his or her spouse and minor children, and in any account of a grandparent, aunt or uncle for which a securities transaction was recommended or placed by the Access Person. No such person may approve their own trades. Trades of the Chief Compliance Officer must be approved by another Firm manager. When requesting prior clearance, each Access Person should be aware that:

All requests for prior clearance must provide the information set forth on the standard Request for Authorization for Personal Trading in Covered Securities Form, via Compliance11.

The Blackout Period is 2 days before and 2 days after the Client purchasing or selling the Covered Security.

Initial Public Offerings. No Access Person may acquire any beneficial ownership in any equity Covered Securities (or Securities convertible into equity Covered Securities) in an Initial Public Offering unless approved in advance by the Chief Compliance Officer via Compliance11.

Private Placements. Before directly or indirectly acquiring beneficial ownership in any Securities in a Private Placement, each Access Person shall obtain express prior written approval from the Chief Compliance Officer via Compliance11, who, in making such determination, shall consider among other factors, whether the investment opportunity should be reserved for any Client, and whether such opportunity is being offered to such Access Person by virtue of his position with the Firm.

If and after such authorization to acquire such Securities in a Private Placement has been obtained, the Access Person must disclose such personal investment whenever any subsequent consideration by a Client for investment in that issuer arises.

If a decision is being considered to purchase Securities of an issuer, the shares of which have been previously obtained for personal investment by an Access Person in a Private Placement, that decision shall be subject to an independent review by a disinterested Portfolio Manager or Firm officer with no personal interest in the issuer.

Service as a Director. No Access Person shall serve on a board of directors of a publicly traded company, absent prior written authorization by the Board of Directors of the Firm (as the case may be), based upon a determination that such service would be consistent with the interests of the Firm’s Clients.

If board service of an Access Person is authorized by the Board of Directors of the Firm, such Access Person shall be isolated from the investment making decisions for the Clients with respect to the company of which he is a director.

Confidentiality. No Access Person shall reveal to any other person (except in the normal course of his duties on behalf of the Firm) any information regarding Securities transactions made, or being considered, by or on behalf of any Client.
