WHEREAS, effective September 1, 2016, the Adviser amended and restated this Agreement to reflect a reduction in the Expense Limitation level from 1.60% of the Fund’s average daily net assets to 1.27% of the Fund’s average daily net assets; and

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

 

Fee Reduction.  The Adviser agrees that it will reduce its compensation and/or reimburse certain expenses for the Fund, to the extent necessary to ensure that the Fund’s total operating expenses, excluding taxes, any class-specific expenses (such as Rule 12b-1 distribution fees, shareholder service fees, or transfer agency fees), “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses,” interest, extraordinary items, and brokerage commissions do not exceed (on an annual basis) (a) 1.60%, as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the period from the commencement of operations of the Fund through August 31, 2016; and (b) 1.27% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the period from September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2018.

 

Fee Recovery.  The Adviser shall be entitled to recover, subject to approval by the Board of Trustees of the Trust, such amounts for a period of up to three (3) years from the year in which the Adviser reduced its compensation and/or assumed expenses for the Funds.
