(a) The Fund hereby appoints ALPS, and ALPS hereby agrees, to provide a qualified person to serve as the Fund’s Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), to the Funds for the period and on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

(b) In connection therewith, the Trust has delivered to ALPS copies of: (i) the Trust’s Trust Instrument and Bylaws (collectively, as amended from time to time, “Organizational Documents”); (ii) the Funds’ current Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the 1940 Act (the “Registration Statement”); (iii) the Fund’s current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (collectively, as currently in effect and as amended or supplemented, the “Prospectus” or “SAI”, as the case may be, or the “Disclosure Documents”); (iv) each plan of distribution or similar document that may be adopted by the Fund under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (“Plan”) and each current shareholder service plan or similar document adopted by the Trust on behalf of the Funds (“Service Plan”); (v) all policies, programs and procedures adopted by the Trust with respect to the Funds, and shall promptly furnish ALPS with all amendments of or supplements to the foregoing.

In addition, the Trust shall deliver, or cause to deliver, to ALPS upon ALPS’s reasonable request any other documents that would enable ALPS to perform the services described in this Agreement.

SECTION 2. DUTIES OF ALPS

(a) Subject to the approval of the Board, ALPS shall make available a qualified person who is competent and knowledgeable regarding the management and internal controls of the Funds to serve as the Funds’ PFO, who will have the authority normally incident to such office, including the authority to execute documents required to be executed by the Funds’ “Principal Financial Officer”.

(b) ALPS shall provide such other services and assistance relating to the affairs of the Funds as the Trust may, from time to time, reasonably request pursuant to mutually acceptable compensation and implementation agreements.

(c) ALPS shall maintain records relating to its services, such as policies and procedures, relevant Board presentations, and other records, as are required to be maintained under the relevant securities laws. Such reports shall be maintained in the manner and for the periods as are required under the applicable rule or regulation. The books and records pertaining to the Funds that are in the possession of ALPS shall be the property of the Trust. The Trust, or the Trust’s authorized representatives, shall have access to such books and records at all times during ALPS’s normal business hours. Upon the reasonable request of the Trust, copies of any such books and records shall be provided promptly by ALPS to the Trust or the Trust’s authorized representatives at the Fund’s expense.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require ALPS to perform any service that could cause ALPS to be deemed an investment adviser for purposes of the 1940 Act or the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or that could cause the Funds to act in contravention of the Funds’ Prospectus or any provision of the 1940 Act. Except with respect to ALPS’s duties as set forth in this Section 2 and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Trust assumes all responsibility for ensuring that the Fund complies with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the 1940 Act and any laws, rules and regulations of governmental authorities with jurisdiction over the Trust. All references to any law in this Agreement shall be deemed to include reference to the applicable rules and regulations promulgated under authority of the law and all official interpretations of such law or rules or regulations.

(e) In order for ALPS to perform the services required by this Section 2, the Funds (i) shall take reasonable steps to encourage all Service Providers to furnish any and all information to ALPS as reasonably requested; and (ii) shall take reasonable steps to obtain the result that ALPS has access to all records and documents maintained by the Funds or any service provider to the Funds.

(f) ALPS shall provide the services as set forth on Appendix B.

SECTION 3. STANDARD OF CARE; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

(a) ALPS shall be under no duty to take any action except as specifically set forth herein or as may be specifically agreed to by ALPS in writing. ALPS shall use its best judgment and efforts in rendering the services described in this Agreement. ALPS shall not be liable to the Trust, the Funds, or any of the Funds’ stockholders for any action or inaction of ALPS relating to any event whatsoever in the absence of bad faith, reckless disregard, negligence or willful misfeasance in the performance of ALPS’s duties or obligations under this Agreement. Further, ALPS shall not liable to the Trust, the Funds, or any of the Funds’ stockholders for any action taken or failure to act in good faith reliance upon: (i) the advice and opinion of Fund counsel; and (ii) any certified copy of any resolution of the Board; and ALPS shall not be under any duty or obligation to inquire into the validity or invalidity or authority or lack thereof of any statement, oral or written instruction, resolution, signature, request, letter of transmittal, certificate, opinion of counsel, instrument, report, notice, consent, order, or any other document or instrument which ALPS reasonably believes in good faith to be genuine.

(b) The Trust agrees to indemnify and hold harmless ALPS, its employees, agents, directors, officers and managers, and any person who controls ALPS within the meaning of section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (“ALPS Indemnitees”), against and from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments, administrative proceedings or investigations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising out of or in any way related to ALPS’s actions taken or failures to act with respect to the Fund in connection with the performance of any duties or obligations under this Agreement (a “ALPS Claim”); provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall entitle a ALPS Indemnitee to indemnification with respect to any ALPS claim arising from ALPS’s own bad faith, reckless disregard, negligence or willful malfeasance, or breach of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, ALPS’s bad faith, willful malfeasance, or reckless disregard shall not include any action taken or not taken by ALPS consistent with the last sentence of Section 3(a). Further, the Trust shall not be required to indemnify any ALPS Indemnitee if, prior to confessing any ALPS Claim against the ALPS Indemnitee, ALPS or the ALPS Indemnitee does not give the Fund written notice of and reasonable opportunity to defend against the ALPS claim in its own name or in the name of the ALPS Indemnitee.

(c) ALPS agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust, its employees, agents, directors, officers and managers (“Fund Indemnitees”), against and from any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments, administrative proceedings and investigations, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character arising out of or in any way related to (i) ALPS’s actions taken or failures to act with respect to the Fund that are not consistent with Section 3(a); (ii) any breach of this Agreement with ALPS; or (iii) any breach of ALPS’s representations set forth in Section 4 (a “Fund Claim”). ALPS shall not be required to indemnify any Fund Indemnitee if, prior to confessing any Fund Claim against the Fund Indemnitee, the Fund or the Fund Indemnitee does not give ALPS written notice of and reasonable opportunity to defend against the Fund Claim in its own name or in the name of the Fund Indemnitee.

SECTION 9. ACTIVITIES OF ALPS

(a) Except to the extent necessary to perform ALPS’s obligations under this Agreement, nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict ALPS’s right, or the right of any of ALPS’s managers, officers or employees who also may be a director, officer or employee of the Fund (including, without limitation, the PFO), or who are otherwise affiliated persons of the Fund, to engage in any other business or to devote time and attention to the management or other aspects of any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to render services of any kind to any other corporation, trust, firm, individual or association.

(b) Upon prior approval by the Trust, ALPS may subcontract any or all of its functions or responsibilities pursuant to this Agreement to one or more persons, which may be affiliated persons of ALPS who agree to comply with the terms of this Agreement; provided, that any such subcontracting shall not relieve ALPS of its responsibilities hereunder. ALPS may pay those persons for their services, but no such payment will increase ALPS’s compensation or reimbursement of expenses from the Fund.
