Additional Trustee Compensation Sample Clauses
Additional Trustee Compensation. In addition to fees set forth elsewhere, the Company acknowledges that the Trustee may receive, as compensation for its services, any credit, interest or other earnings (collectively “Float”) on aggregate cash balances that the Trustee has on deposit with any third-party bank or other financial institution. Such cash balances may result from cash contributions not yet invested, cash pending trade settlements or cash pending distributions from the Trust.
(a) The Trustee has the authority to initiate investments on behalf of the Trust only upon receipt of instructions from the Administrator. The Trustee calculates its cash Float investment amount each business day by netting all cash activity and adjusting for cash reserved for investment or reinvestment and for cash reserved for distributions. The result is further adjusted by an additional reserve amount determined by the Trustee in its sole discretion as necessary to satisfy the Trust’s cash needs during the following day for settlement of trades and payments, which may be adjusted from time to time.
(b) The Trustee invests the net cash Float amount primarily in overnight and short-term investments, including money market funds, repurchase agreements, U.S. Government notes, bankers acceptances, and similar securities. The average maturity of the portfolio will not exceed ninety days. Thus the interest rates earned on Float approximate money market or federal funds rates. Exact rates earned for representative periods are available upon request.
(c) The Trustee will comply with the following service standards.
