APPENDIX A

 

SUB-ADVISORY FEES

 

The Adviser will pay the Sub-Adviser, as full compensation for all services provided under this Agreement, an annual fee computed at the following annual rates based on the Segment’s average daily net assets:

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, until the earlier of (i) six month anniversary of the effective date of this Agreement, and (ii) the Segment’s daily net asset value first equaling or exceeding $400 million (the “Commitment Amount”), the fee rate that will be used to calculate the fee will be as if the Segment’s daily net assets are the Commitment Amount. Thereafter, the fees will be calculated based on the fee schedule set forth above.

 

The Sub-Adviser’s fee shall be accrued for each calendar day and the sum of the daily fee accruals shall be paid monthly in arrears to the Sub-Adviser on or before the tenth business day of the next succeeding calendar month. The daily fee accruals will be computed by multiplying the fraction of one over the number of calendar days in the year by the applicable annual rate set forth in the schedule above and multiplying this product by the net assets of the Segment, as determined in accordance with the Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information as of the close of business on the previous business day on which the Fund was open for business. For each monthly fee payment, the Adviser will provide the Sub-Adviser with a worksheet accompanying payment of the sub-advisory fee that sets forth the computation of such sub-advisory fee.

 

If this Agreement becomes effective or terminates before the end of any month, the sub-advisory fee (if any) for the period from such effective date to the end of such month or from the beginning of such month to the date of such termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion which such period bears to the full month in which such effectiveness or termination occurs.
