I.	INTRODUCTION
	A. General Principles

The Code of Ethics (the “Code”) is based on the principle that Jackson Square Partners, LLC (“Jackson Square”), its members, officers, and employees (each, a “Covered Person” and collectively, “Covered Persons”), owe a fiduciary duty of undivided loyalty to the funds to which Jackson Square serves as sub-adviser (collectively, the “Funds”) and any other investment advisory client (each, a “Client” and collectively, our “Clients”) that Jackson Square advises or sub-advises.¹

This Code sets out standards of conduct designed to address potential conflicts of interest that might arise between this fiduciary duty to Jackson Square’s Clients and a Covered Person’s personal activities. Specifically, each Covered Person must avoid participating in transactions, activities, and relationships that might interfere (or appear to interfere) with making decisions in the best interests of those Clients.

As a Covered Person, you are responsible for reading the Code and understanding your obligations in order to comply with its provisions. Additionally, your duty to comply with this Code includes the requirement that your personal and business activities be conducted in compliance with all other policies and procedures governing Jackson Square. Examples of such policies include, but are not limited to, Jackson Square’s Gifts and Entertainment Policy, Political Contribution (“Pay to Play”) Policy, and Insider Trading/Material Non-Public Information Policy. If you have any questions regarding the Code and its related policies or your resultant obligations and duties, please contact the Chief Compliance Officer (the “CCO”) for assistance.

B. Your Fiduciary Duty

Jackson Square is committed to fostering a culture that promotes honesty and high ethical standards. Consequently, all Covered Persons have an obligation to conduct themselves in accordance with the following general fiduciary principles:

You have a duty to place the interests of our Clients ahead of your own interests at all times;

You have a duty to attempt to avoid actual and potential conflicts of interest between your personal activities and the activities of our Clients, as well as to avoid any activities that may give the appearance of creating a conflict of interest; and

You must not take inappropriate advantage of your position at Jackson Square.

Covered Persons are reminded that violations of the Code and/or any associated policies and procedures may result in disciplinary action, including fines, disgorgement of profits, and possibly suspension and/or dismissal.

Definitions of certain capitalized terms can be found in the Glossary to the Code of Ethics. These definitions are an integral part of the Code and a proper understanding of them is necessary to comply with the Code. It is important that you review and understand all of the definitions contained in the Glossary and refer back to them as necessary to understand your responsibilities under the Code.

	C.	Compliance with Applicable Federal Securities Laws
	As	a Covered Person under this Code, it is your duty to conduct all personal and professional activities
	in	a manner that is consistent with any and all Applicable Federal Securities Laws (as defined in the
	Glossary	to this Code (“Glossary”).
	D.	Obligation to Report Violations of the Code
	You	have a duty to report violations of the Code. If you become aware of a violation of Jackson
	Square’s	Code committed by another Covered Person, you have an ongoing obligation to report that
	violation	to the CCO. It is Jackson Square’s policy to protect the confidentiality of any such report
	made	in good faith and any Covered Person reporting such a violation will not be subject to retaliation.
II.	YOUR OBLIGATIONS AS A COVERED PERSON
	A.	Categories of Covered Persons

Upon becoming subject to the provisions of this Code, each Covered Person is assigned to one of the following three categories below based on their responsibilities and/or privileges at Jackson Square:

1.	Access Person
2.	Investment Person
3.	Affiliated Person

You will be advised of the category to which you are assigned during your initial training on this Code. It is important to know the category to which you are assigned, as belonging to a certain category may cause you to be subject to additional obligations and/or limitations under the Code. A complete definition for each category is included in the Glossary. You are encouraged to review the definitions for each category carefully, as well as any sections of the Code that may pertain only to Covered Persons assigned to your category.

B. Immediate Family Members

In accordance with federal securities laws, certain restrictions and limitations found within the Code are also applicable to the personal investment activities of any immediate family members that reside in your household (“Immediate Family Members”). As a Covered Person, it is your responsibility to alert your Immediate Family Members of any applicable restrictions or limitations that may impact their personal investment activities to ensure that both you and your Immediate Family Members conduct all personal investment activities in a manner consistent with the Code.

C.	Your Obligations at Time of Hire
	1.	Initial Holdings Report
		All Access and Investment Persons must submit an initial holdings report within ten (10) calendar days of commencing employment with Jackson Square or otherwise becoming an Access or Investment Person to disclose the Required Holdings Information for both their own and their Immediate Family Members’ personal securities holdings. The information included in the initial holdings report must be current as of a date no more than forty-five (45) calendar days prior to the

	commencement of employment with Jackson Square (or becoming subject to the Code). These holding reports will be reviewed by the CCO or his delegate.
	Each holdings report must contain, at a minimum:
	a) The title and type of security, and as applicable the exchange ticker symbol or CUSIP number, number of shares, and principal amount of each security in which the access person has any direct or indirect Beneficial ownership; b) The name of any broker, dealer or bank with which the access person maintains an account in which any securities are held for the access person's direct or indirect benefit; and
	c) The date the Access and Investment Person submits the report
	The Holdings Initial & Annual Report is attached as Appendix C.
	2.	Disclosure of Outside Business Activities
		Covered Persons may not engage in full-time or part-time service as an officer, director, partner, manager, consultant or employee of any business organization or non-profit organization other than Jackson Square without receiving prior written approval from the CCO. Any such service is considered an “Outside Business Activity,” even if performed on a volunteer basis. Any existing Outside Business Activities must be disclosed at the time that you become subject to this Code and are subject to review and approval. Similarly, you have an ongoing obligation to disclose any Outside Business Activities that you undertake during your employment with Jackson Square and receive written approval from the CCO prior to participating in such activities.
	3.	Disclosure of Political Contributions
		In addition to the Code, all Covered Persons and their Immediate Family Members are subject to Jackson Square’s Political Contribution (“Pay-to-Play”) Policy. Covered Persons are required to disclose all political contributions made during the two year period prior to the date that they become subject to this Code. This disclosure must also include all political contributions made by your Immediate Family Members during the two year period. The information provided may be shared in the aggregate in response to requests for proposals or client information requests, but will otherwise remain strictly confidential.
	4.	Written Acknowledgement of Receipt of Code
		All Covered Persons are required to certify that they have received this Code within ten (10) calendar days of their hire date. You will also be required to certify your ongoing compliance with this Code on an annual basis and whenever the Code is
	updated.
	D.	Your Obligations on a Daily Basis
	1.	Pre-clearance of Personal Securities Transactions
	Covered	Persons and their Immediate Family Members must pre-clear each personal
	investment	transaction and receive approval for the activity prior to executing the
	transaction,	unless the transaction is subject to an exemption from the pre-clearance
	requirements	of the Code as outlined in Section II.D.1.b below.


a)	*Duration of Approval*

	Approval for a pre-clearance request is valid for the same day only and the
	trade must be executed on the same day that approval is granted. If a
	transaction is not executed (or is only partially completed) on the same day
	that you receive approval, you must repeat the pre-clearance process and
	receive approval on the day that you do execute (or complete) the
	transaction. Similarly, if the information in your pre-clearance request
	changes in any material way, you must resubmit your pre-clearance request
	prior to executing the transaction.

b)	*Exceptions to the Pre-clearance Requirement*

	You are not required to pre-clear and receive approval for the personal
	investment transaction types listed below prior to execution, although you
	are still responsible for complying with the reporting requirements of this
	Code for these transactions, as applicable.

	(1)	Involuntary transactions

		The acquisition or disposition of a security as the result of a stock
		dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, merger, consolidation,
		spin-off or other similar corporate distribution or reorganization
		applicable to all holders of a class of securities does not require
		pre-clearance under the Code.

	(2)	Purchases or sales of exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) that are
		linked to major indices

		A list of the ETFs that qualify under this exemption can be found
		in Appendix B. Only those ETFs listed in Appendix B are exempt
		from the pre-clearance and approval requirements of the Code.

	(3)	Transactions in Managed Accounts

		Pre-clearance is not required for transactions made in an account
		over which neither you nor an Immediate Family Member (a)
		exercises investment discretion, (b) receives notice of transactions
		prior to execution, and/or (c) otherwise has direct or indirect
		influence or control (“Managed Account”).

		Note: Covered Persons and their Immediate Family Members must
		receive approval from the CCO in order to maintain a Managed
		Account. You should be aware that Managed Accounts are still
subject to the reporting requirements of the Code.

	(4)	Donated Shares

		Pre-clearance and approval are not required for any securities that
		are donated to a charitable organization. However, such
		transactions are still subject to the reporting requirements of the
		Code.

c)	*Transactions Excluded from BOTH the Pre-clearance and Approval*
	*Requirement*	*and the Reporting Requirement*
	All	personal investment transactions by Covered Persons must be reported
	under	the Code with a few limited exceptions. The following types of
	personal	investment transactions are exempt from both the pre-clearance
	and	the reporting requirements of the Code.
	(1)	Purchases or sales of unaffiliated open-end mutual funds
		Note: Open-end (non-money market) mutual funds (including open-end mutual funds that are underlying investments in a 529 plan) to which Jackson Square provides advisory or sub-advisory services as well as any fund whose investment adviser or principal underwriter controls JSP, is controlled by JSP, or is under common control with JSP, are considered to be “Affiliated Mutual Funds” and require pre-clearance and approval prior to execution of a personal investment transaction.
	(2)	Purchases or sales of direct obligations of the U.S. Government or any other national government and futures and options with respect to such obligations;
	(3)	Purchases or sales of bank certificates of deposit, bankers acceptances, commercial paper and other high quality short- term debt instruments (having a maturity at issuance of less than 366 calendar days and rated in one of the two highest ratings categories by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization, including repurchase agreements);
	(4)	Purchases which are made by reinvesting cash dividends including reinvestments pursuant to an Automatic Investment Plan;
	(5)	Purchases or sales of money market funds; and
	(6)	Transactions in Section 529 plans with the exception of plans for which an Affiliated Mutual Fund is an underlying investment.

2. Compliance with Trading Restrictions

All Covered Persons and their Immediate Family Members are subject to certain trading restrictions on their personal investment activities.

a) All Covered Persons – Seven (7) Calendar Day Blackout Period

All Covered Persons and their Immediate Family Members are prohibited from trading a security in their personal brokerage accounts for seven (7) calendar days before and after Jackson Square executes a buy or sell transaction in that same security.

b)	*Holding Periods:*
	All	Covered Persons are prohibited from engaging in activities that could be
	considered	“market timing” in violation of Rule 22c-1 of the Investment
	Company	Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and, therefore, subject
	to	required holding periods.
	(1)	Access and Affiliated Persons – 14 Calendar Day General Holding Period
		If you are categorized as an Access Person or Affiliated Person
			this Code, you are subject to a fourteen (14) calendar day
		holding period for most personal securities transactions. Upon opening a position in a security, you are required to hold that security for a minimum of fourteen (14) calendar days before you may enter into a closing transaction for the same (or an equivalent) security. This holding period applies regardless of the potential
			or loss resulting from the closing transaction.
	(2)	Investment Persons ONLY – 60 Calendar Day General Holding Period
		Investment Persons are prohibited from engaging in short term trading in their personal investment accounts that results in a profit. Accordingly, Investment Persons must hold all opening positions, including those in stock options, for a total period of sixty (60) calendar days before they can be closed at a profit.
			Note: Investment Persons are permitted to close positions at a loss if they have held the position for a minimum of fourteen (14) calendar days prior to executing the closing transaction.
	(3)	All Covered Persons – 60 Calendar Day Holding Period for Affiliated Mutual Funds
		All Covered Persons must hold any newly opened positions in Affiliated Mutual Funds for sixty (60) calendar days before the position may be closed for a profit. Positions in Affiliated Mutual
			may be closed at a loss if the position has been held for a
	minimum	of fourteen (14) calendar days.
	c)	*Restricted Securities*
	Jackson	Square maintains a list of certain restricted securities that may not
	be	traded by Covered Persons (the “Restricted List”). You are generally
	prohibited	from purchasing or selling any security on the Restricted List,
	except	that this prohibition shall not apply to:

Involuntary and/or automatic transactions;
Transactions made in an approved Managed Account, provided that such transactions do not reflect a prohibited pattern of conduct; and


				Transactions for which specific approval has been granted
				due to unusual or unforeseen circumstances.

	d)	*Initial Public Offerings/Private Placements*

		(1)	Investment Persons

			Investment Persons are prohibited from participating in initial
			public offerings and may only participate in a private placement
			with prior written permission. Additionally, an Investment Person
			who purchased privately-placed securities prior to becoming
			subject to this Code is required to disclose the purchases to the
			CCO before they can participate in the consideration of an
			investment in the securities of that issuer or its affiliates for a
			Client account. In order to avoid a potential conflict of interest, any
			decision to invest in the issuer in question will be subject to an
			independent review by additional Investment Persons that do not
			have a personal interest in the issuer.

		(2)	Access and Affiliated Persons

			Access and Affiliated Persons are required to request and receive
			approval from the CCO before purchasing initial public offerings
			or private placements.

		(3)	Registered Representatives

			All Covered Persons holding valid FINRA registrations are
			prohibited from participating in initial public offerings.

All Covered Persons and their Immediate Family Members must submit a pre-clearance request and receive approval prior to making a political contribution. Examples of political contributions that would require pre-clearance and approval include, but are not limited to, donations of cash, stock, service or anything of value to a candidate for public office, a sitting public official, political party or a political action committee, whether at the local, state, and/or federal level. Please review Jackson Square’s Pay-to-Play Policy for more information on applicable restrictions and reporting obligations for political contributions.

	5.	Obligation to Report Changes to Personal Information
		You have an ongoing obligation to report any changes in your personal information that may impact your obligations under this Code. Examples include changes to your personal brokerage accounts (e.g., opening or closing an account), disclosures of new outside business activities for review and approval, and changes to your address, Immediate Family Members, or other personal information.
E.	Your Obligations on a Quarterly Basis
	1.	Quarterly Report/Certification of Transactions

Within thirty (30) calendar days after each quarter’s end, all Covered Persons must report and certify their personal investment activity during the previous quarter. These certifications and personal investment activity will be reviewed by the CCO or his delegate. Please note that all Covered Persons are required to complete the quarterly certification each quarter, even if they did not complete any personal investment transactions during the quarter. Additionally, Covered Persons will be asked to review the list of brokerage accounts that they have previously disclosed and certify to its accuracy.

Each Covered Person must also submit a quarterly transaction report, which report must contain, at a minimum, the following information about each personal investment transaction in which the Covered Person had, or as a result of the transaction acquired, any direct or indirect Beneficial Ownership:

Accordingly, within 30 calendar days after each quarter’s end, Covered Persons must also submit to Compliance brokerage confirmations and account statements for each brokerage account listed in the Quarterly Report, so long as the brokerage confirmations and account statements contain the information required in a transaction report.

The quarterly Report is attached as Appendix D.
