Brokerage In connection with the services provided under subparagraph (b) of paragraph 1 of this Agreement, the Sub-Advisor shall place all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Portfolio's account with brokers or dealers selected by the Sub-Advisor, which may include brokers or dealers affiliated with the Advisor or Sub-Advisor. The Sub-Advisor shall use its best efforts to seek to execute portfolio transactions at prices which are advantageous to the Portfolio and at commission rates which are reasonable in relation to the benefits received. In selecting brokers or dealers qualified to execute a particular transaction, brokers or dealers may be selected who also provide brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to the Portfolio and/or to the other accounts over which the Sub-Advisor or Advisor exercise investment discretion. The Sub-Advisor is authorized to pay a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for the Portfolio which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Sub-Advisor determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer. This determination may be viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities which the Sub-Advisor has with respect to accounts over which it exercises investment discretion. The Trustees of the Trust shall periodically review the commissions paid by the Portfolio to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods of time were reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Portfolio.
Brokerage Transactions Subject to the provisions of this Section 5 ---------------------- and absent instructions from the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Subadviser will have full discretionary authority to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the account of the Fund with such brokers or dealers as it may select. In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders, the Subadviser is directed at all times to seek for the Fund the most favorable execution and net price available. It is also understood, however, that it is desirable for the Fund that the Subadviser have access to supplemental investment and market research and security and economic analyses provided by certain brokers who may execute brokerage transactions at higher commissions to the Fund than may result when allocating brokerage to other brokers solely on the basis of seeking the most favorable price and efficient execution. Therefore, the Subadviser is authorized to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the Fund with such certain brokers, subject to applicable laws and regulations and review by the Investment Adviser and the Trust's Board of Trustees from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of this practice. It is understood that the services provided by such brokers may be useful to the Subadviser in connection with its services to other clients. On occasions when the Subadviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of the Fund as well as other clients of the Subadviser, the Subadviser, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and efficient execution. In such event, allocation of securities so sold or purchased, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the manner the Subadviser considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other clients. The Subadviser will report on such allocations at the request of the Investment Adviser, the Fund or the Trust's Board of Trustees, providing such information as the number of aggregated trades to which the Fund was a party, the broker(s) to whom such trades were directed and the basis of the allocation for the aggregated trades. Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5 and at the direction of the Investment Adviser or the Trust, the Subadviser may also consider sales of Fund shares as a factor in the selection of brokers or dealers for a Fund's portfolio transactions. In connection with purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the account of the Fund, neither the Subadviser nor any of its affiliated persons, will act as a principal or agent or receive directly or indirectly any compensation in connection with the purchase or sale of investment securities by the Fund, except as permitted by applicable law and with the express written consent of the Trust and the Investment Adviser. The Subadviser will advise the Fund's custodian and the Investment Adviser on a prompt basis of each purchase and sale of a portfolio security, specifying the name of the issuer, the description and amount or number of shares of the security purchased or sold, the market price, commission and gross or net price, trade date, settlement date and identity of the effecting broker or dealer, and such other information as may be reasonably required.
Purchases (1) The Transfer Agent shall receive orders and payment for the purchase of Shares and, establish accounts in the Fund for the purchasers of the Fund’s Shares (i.e., Shareholders) on the Transfer Agent’s recordkeeping system and record the initial purchase by such Shareholders in the Fund, which are received in good order ("Good Purchase Orders") according to the then current processing guidelines of the Transfer Agent, as the same may be changed from time to time upon provision of a revised version thereof to the administrator of the Fund (the "Processing Guidelines"), and promptly deliver the payments received therefor to the custodian of the relevant Fund (the "Custodian"), for credit to the account of such Fund. The Transfer Agent shall notify each Custodian, on a daily basis, of the total amount of Good Purchase Orders received. Orders which are not Good Purchase Orders will be promptly rejected by the Transfer Agent, absent Proper Instructions to the contrary, and the Shareholder or would-be Shareholder, as applicable, will be promptly notified of such action.
