Cross Transactions. Cross transactions are transactions between the Company or one of its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and an account (other than the Company or one of its subsidiaries) that is managed or advised by the Manager, Xxxxxxxxx or one of Xxxxxxxxx’x other investment advisory affiliates, on the other hand (each a “Cross Transaction”). The Manager is authorized to execute Cross Transactions for the Company in accordance with applicable law and the Xxxxxxxxx Compliance Policies; provided however that the Manager shall not cause the Company to enter into any Cross Transaction involving any asset other than a Level One Asset which is being crossed at market price as determined by the Manager without the prior written approval of a majority of the Independent Trustees. The Company acknowledges that the Manager has a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities regarding each party to a Cross Transaction. The Company may at any time, upon written notice to the Manager, revoke its consent to the Manager to execute Cross Transactions. In addition, unless approved in advance by a majority of the Company’s Independent Trustees or pursuant to and in accordance with a policy that has been approved by a majority of the Company’s Independent Trustees, all Cross Transactions must be effected at then-prevailing market prices.
