Contracts With Service Providers 13 Section 1.
Agreements with Intermediaries The Fund authorizes Price Services to enter into agreements with Intermediaries, which maintain and service Indirect Accounts, to carry out the following: · Orders. Process the purchase, sale, exchange and transfer of Fund shares by shareholders (including Retirement Accounts) and transmit and settle such orders to Price Services in accordance with procedures established by such agreement. Receipt of orders by the Intermediary by the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on a day when the NYSE is open (or such other time as determined by the Fund) shall be deemed receipt by the Fund for that day’s net asset value to the extent permitted by Rule 22c-1 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“’40 Act”) and the agreement between Price Services and the Intermediary. · To comply with Rule 22c-2 of the ’40 Act. Enter into agreements, on behalf of the Fund, with Intermediaries who hold shares in omnibus accounts for purposes of compliance with Rule 22c-2 of the ’40 Act (“Shareholder Information Agreements”) unless such intermediary enforces the Funds’ excessive trading policy or an acceptable alternative policy or has accounts that are otherwise exempt from the policy. Price Services, or its agent, shall monitor the omnibus accounts for certain trading activity in accordance with the Fund’s excessive trading procedures and when certain activity is identified, pursuant to the Shareholder Information Agreement, Price Services, or its agent, shall request from the Intermediary Indirect Account personal and transaction data. Alternatively, Price Services, or its agent, will request and receive regular periodic reporting from Intermediaries of Indirect Account personal and transaction data. Once received, Price Services, or its agent, will review the data to determine if the Fund’s excessive trading policy has been violated. Pursuant to the terms of the Shareholder Information Agreement, if Price Services, or its agent, determines that the Fund’s policy has been violated, Price Services, or its agents, shall instruct the Intermediary to restrict or prohibit future purchases of Fund shares by Indirect Account holders (or warn these Indirect Account holders when appropriate) identified by Price Services or its agent as having violated the policy. · Fee Payments. The Funds have instituted a program whereby they may, in their discretion, pay an Intermediary or a Plan a fee to compensate the third party providing certain services to Indirect Accounts in accordance with the Funds’ Administrative Fee Payment (“AFP”) Program or 12b-1 Plan (collectively “Fee Payments”). Each Fund authorizes Price Services or its affiliate to enter into, on its behalf, agreements with such Intermediaries for payment of AFP in consideration of such Intermediary’s performance of services to the Indirect Accounts pursuant to the Fund’s AFP Program. Any payments owed under Fee Payment agreements shall be the obligation of the applicable Fund, not Price Services or its affiliates. Price Services or its agent shall also act as paying agent for such Fee Payments.
Investment Advisory and Management Services The Investment Adviser hereby appoints the Subadviser to serve as subadviser to the Fund and the Subadviser hereby accepts such appointment. Subject to the supervision of the Investment Adviser, Subadviser will regularly provide the Fund with investment advice and investment management services concerning the investments of the Fund. The Subadviser will determine what securities shall be purchased, held or sold by the Fund and what portion of the Funds assets shall be held uninvested in cash and cash equivalents, subject always to the provisions of the Trusts Declaration of Trust and By-laws and the 1940 Act, and to the investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund (including, without limitation, the requirements of Subchapters L and M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) (the Code), as each of the same shall be from time to time in effect or set forth in the Funds Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as well as any other investment guidelines or policies the Board of Trustees or the Investment Adviser may from time to time establish and deliver in writing to the Subadviser. To carry out such determinations the Subadviser will exercise full discretion, subject to the preceding paragraph, and act for the Fund in the same manner and with the same force and effect as the Trust might or could do with respect to purchases, sales or other transactions, as well as with respect to all other things necessary or incidental to the furtherance or conduct of such purchases, sales or other transactions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subadviser shall, upon written instructions from the Investment Adviser, effect such portfolio transactions for the Fund as the Investment Adviser may from time to time direct. Such instructions will be given in reasonable circumstances, including, without limitation, any termination of this Agreement. The Subadviser will also make its officers and employees available to meet with the officers of the Investment Adviser and the Trusts officers and Trustees at least quarterly on due notice to review the investments and investment program of the Fund in the light of current and prospective economic and market conditions. From time to time as the Board of Trustees of the Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request, the Subadviser will furnish to the Investment Adviser and Trusts officers and to each of its Trustees, at the Subadvisers expense, reports on portfolio transactions and reports on issues of securities held by the Fund, all in such detail as the Trust or the Investment Adviser may reasonably request. The Subadviser shall maintain all books and records required by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act relating to its responsibilities provided hereunder with respect to the Fund, and shall preserve such records for the periods and in a manner prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act. The Subadviser shall permit the Investment Adviser, the Funds officers and its independent public accountants to inspect and audit such records at reasonable times during normal business hours upon due notice. If any occasion should arise in which the Subadviser gives any advice to its clients concerning the shares of the Fund, the Subadviser will act solely as investment counsel for such clients and not in any way on behalf of the Fund. The Subadvisers services to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive, and it is understood that the Subadviser may render investment advice, management and other services to others.
