For your convenience in reviewing the responses, the comments and suggestions received are included in bold-face type immediately followed by the response. Capitalized terms used in this response letter, but not defined herein, shall have the same meaning as in the Proxy Statement.

Response: The Trust responds by revising the disclosure as follows:

“The terms of the Interim Advisory Agreement are the same as those of the current investment advisory agreement, except for certain provisions that are required by law, the date the effective date, termination date, fee escrow provisions and certain other immaterial differences.”

5.Staff Comment: Page 6 of the Proxy Statement discloses that “the Trustees noted that the objectives of the Transaction included the modernization of Reinhart’s ownership structure.” Please clarify in the disclosure what is meant by “modernization of Reinhart’s ownership structure.”
