Schedule A to this Amendment

Amendments

Effective as of August 1, 2019, the Existing Agreement is amended as follows:

1. Section 4 of Exhibit 1 to the Existing Agreement shall be amended by adding the following sub-section:

“(n) At the request and direction of the Trust, ALPS enters into agreements with financial intermediaries (each, an “Intermediary Agreement”). ALPS will not be obligated to make payments to any such financial intermediaries unless ALPS has received an authorized payment from the relevant Fund, if subject to a distribution plan or other such plan or arrangement approved by the Trust’s board of trustees and/or the applicable Fund’s investment adviser. In addition, to the extent that ALPS is requested or required by the Trust to enter into Intermediary Agreements on behalf of the Trust, ALPS and each of its affiliates, members, shareholders, directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, successors or assigns (“ALPS Associates”) shall not be liable to the Trust for any action or inaction of any ALPS Associate except that ALPS shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trust and its respective officers, directors, agents, and employees to the extent of direct Losses¹ to have resulted solely from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of ALPS in the performance of ALPS’ duties, obligations, representations, warranties or indemnities under an Intermediary Agreement. The Trust shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ALPS Associates from and against Losses (including legal fees and costs to enforce this provision) that ALPS Associates suffer, incur, or pay as a result of any third-party claim or claim among the parties arising out of the subject matter of or otherwise in any way related to an Intermediary Agreement (“Claims”). Any expenses (including legal fees and costs) incurred by an indemnified party in defending or responding to any Claims (or in enforcing this provision) shall be paid by the indemnifying party when the final amounts of the applicable Losses are finalized and it has been determined that an indemnified party is entitled to indemnity hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph or elsewhere in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver by the Trust of any of its legal rights available under U.S. federal securities laws or any other laws whose applicability is not permitted to be contractually waived.”

¹ As used in this Agreement, the term “Losses” means any and all compensatory, direct, taxes, costs, charges, expenses, assessments, claims and liabilities (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements and liabilities arising under applicable federal and state laws).
