The Agreement will continue in effect for a period more than two years from the date of its execution only so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually either by the Trustees of the Trust or by a majority of the outstanding voting securities of each of the Portfolios, provided that in either event such continuance shall also be approved by the vote of a majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not interested persons (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of any party to this Agreement cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. Any required shareholder approval of the Agreement or of any continuance of the Agreement shall be effective with respect to any Portfolio if a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the series (as defined in Rule 18f-2(h) under the Investment Company Act) of shares of that Portfolio votes to approve the Agreement or its continuance, notwithstanding that the Agreement or its continuance may not have been approved by a majority of the outstanding voting securities of (a) any other Portfolio affected by the Agreement or (b) all the portfolios of the Trust. If any required shareholder approval of this Agreement or any continuance of the Agreement is not obtained, the Subadviser will continue to act as investment subadviser with respect to such Portfolio pending the required approval of the Agreement or its continuance or of a new contract with the Subadviser or a different adviser or subadviser or other definitive action; provided, that the compensation received by the Subadviser in respect of such Portfolio during such period is in compliance with Rule 15a-4 under the Investment Company Act.

Duration and Termination of Trust Unless terminated as provided herein, the Trust shall continue without limitation of time. Subject to the voting powers of one or more classes or series of Shares as set forth in the Bylaws, the Trust may be terminated at any time (i) by vote or consent of Shareholders holding at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Shares entitled to vote or (ii) by vote or consent of majority of the entire Board of Trustees and seventy-five percent (75%) of the Continuing Trustees upon written notice to the Shareholders. Any series or class of Shares may be terminated at any time (x) by vote or consent of Shareholders holding at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the Shares of such series of class entitled to vote or (y) by vote or consent of majority of the entire Board of Trustees and seventy-five percent (75%) of the Continuing Trustees upon written notice to the Shareholders of such series or class. For the avoidance of any doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Declaration, Shareholders shall have no separate right to vote with respect to the termination of the Trust or a series of class of Shares if the Trustees (including the Continuing Trustees) exercise their right to terminate the Trust or such series or class pursuant to clauses (ii) and (y) of this Section 4. Upon termination of the Trust or of any one or more series or classes of Shares, after paying or otherwise providing for all charges, taxes, expenses and liabilities, whether due or accrued or anticipated, of the Trust or of the particular series or class, as may be determined by the Trustees, the Trust shall in accordance with such procedures as the Trustees consider appropriate reduce the remaining assets to distributable form in cash or shares or other property, or any combination thereof, and distribute the proceeds to the Shareholders of the series or class(es) involved, ratably according to the number of Shares of such series or class held by the several Shareholders on the date of termination, except to the extent otherwise required or permitted by the preferences and special or relative rights and privileges of any classes or series of Shares.
Disposition and Termination (a) The Parties shall act in accordance with, and Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow Deposit or portion thereof in this Section 3(a) as follows:
(i) Party B will deliver a written direction letter, with e-mail being sufficient, in substantially the form of Exhibit A annexed hereto (the “Direction Letter”) to Escrow Agent (i) confirming to Escrow Agent that the closing under the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of January 16, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among Party B, Far Point Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“FPAC”) and the other parties thereto is scheduled to be consummated on the next Business Day following delivery of the Direction Letter and (ii) directing Escrow Agent to disburse from the Escrow Account the Escrow Deposit to the account of FPAC specified herein (the “FPAC Account”). Following receipt of the Direction Letter, Escrow Agent shall promptly disburse, via wire transfer of immediately available funds, the Escrow Deposit to the FPAC Account and provide to Party A and Party B federal reference numbers for the wire transfer. If the Forward Purchase Price (as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement dated as of May 18, 2018 between FPAC and Party A) is less than the Escrow Deposit, then Party A and Party B shall, no later than the Closing Date, deliver a direction letter (signed by each of them) to Escrow Agent to disburse the amount equal to the excess of the Escrow Deposit over the Forward Purchase Price to Party A on or promptly after the Closing Date. If the Merger Agreement has been terminated (as may be confirmed to Escrow Agent by Party A or Party B), then the Escrow Deposit will be immediately (and in any event, within one (1) Business Day) returned to Party A. The Parties acknowledge and agree that Party A shall have no right to object to any Direction Letter and any objection or other instruction which attempts to prevent or delay the release of any such funds pursuant to any Direction Letter shall be ignored by the Escrow Agent without any liability. Escrow Agent may rely upon the validity, accuracy, and content of the statements contained in any Direction Letter or confirmation delivered pursuant to this Section 3. Party B shall simultaneously provide a copy of any Direction Letter to Party A. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to conclusively presume that Party A contemporaneously received each Direction Letter received by Escrow Agent.
(ii) Escrow Agent shall disburse the Escrow Deposit, or any portion thereof, to Party A upon the joint written instruction of both Party A and Party B in substantially the form of Exhibit B annexed hereto (a “Joint Instruction”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 8, and other than as set forth above, any instructions setting forth, claiming, containing, objecting to, or in any way related to the transfer or distribution of the Escrow Deposit, must be in writing and executed by the appropriate Party or Parties as evidenced by the signatures of the person or persons signing this Agreement or one of the designated persons as set forth on the Designation of Authorized Representatives attached hereto as Schedule 1-A and 1-B (each an “Authorized Representative”), and delivered to Escrow Agent only by confirmed facsimile or as a Portable Document Format (“PDF”) attached to an email only at the fax number or email address set forth in Section 8 below. Each Designation of Authorized Representatives shall be signed by a Secretary, any Assistant Secretary or other duly authorized person of the named Party. No instruction for or related to the transfer or distribution of the Escrow Deposit shall be deemed delivered and effective unless Escrow Agent actually shall have received it by facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email only at the fax number or email address set forth in Section 8 and in the case of a facsimile, as evidenced by a confirmed transmittal to the Party’s or Parties’ transmitting fax number. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any Party or other person for refraining from acting upon any instruction for or related to the transfer or distribution of the Escrow Deposit if delivered to any other fax number or email address, including but not limited to a valid email address of any employee of Escrow Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Parties acknowledge and agree that Escrow Agent (i) shall have no obligation to take any action in connection with this Agreement on a non-Business Day and any action Escrow Agent may otherwise be required to perform on a non-Business Day may be performed by Escrow Agent on the following Business Day and (ii) may not transfer or distribute the Escrow Deposit until Escrow Agent has completed its security procedures.
(b) Each Party authorizes Escrow Agent to use the funds transfer instructions (“Initial Standing Instructions”) specified for it below to disburse any funds due to FPAC without a verifying call-back or email confirmation as set forth below: FPAC: Bank Name: Bank Address: ABA number: Credit A/C Name: Credit A/C # If Applicable: FFC A/C Name: FFC A/C #: FFC A/C Address:
(c) In the event any funds transfer instructions other than the Initial Standing Instructions are set forth in a permitted instruction from a Party or the Parties in accordance with this Agreement (any such additional funds transfer instructions, “Additional Standing Instructions” and, together with the Initial Standing Instructions, the “Standing Instructions”), Escrow Agent will confirm such Additional Standing Instructions by a telephone call-back or email confirmation to an Authorized Representative of such Party or Parties, and Escrow Agent may rely and act upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be that Authorized Representative. No funds will be disbursed until such confirmation occurs. Each Party agrees that after such confirmation, Escrow Agent may continue to rely solely upon such Additional Standing Instructions and all identifying information set forth therein for such beneficiary without an additional telephone call-back or email confirmation. Further, it is understood and agreed that if multiple disbursements are provided for under this Agreement pursuant to any Standing Instructions, only the date, amount and/or description of payments may change without requiring a telephone call-back or email confirmation.
(d) The persons designated as Authorized Representatives and telephone numbers for same may be changed only in a writing executed by an Authorized Representative or other duly authorized person of the applicable Party setting forth such changes and actually received by Escrow Agent via facsimile or as a PDF attached to an email. Escrow Agent will confirm any such change in Authorized Representatives by a telephone call-back or email confirmation to an Authorized Representative and Escrow Agent may rely and act upon the confirmation of anyone purporting to be that Authorized Representative.
(e) Escrow Agent, any intermediary bank and the beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer may rely upon the identifying number of the beneficiary’s bank or any intermediary bank included in a funds transfer instruction provided by a Party or the Parties and, if applicable, confirmed in accordance with this Agreement. Further, the beneficiary’s bank in the funds transfer instructions may make payment on the basis of the account number provided in such Party’s or the Parties’ instruction and, if applicable, confirmed in accordance with this Agreement even though it identifies a person different from the named beneficiary.
Dissolution and Termination (a) The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Substitute Members or Additional Members. The Company shall dissolve, and its affairs shall be wound up, upon:

(ii) the sale, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets and properties of the Company;
(iii) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware Act; or
(iv) at any time that there are no members of the Company, unless the business of the Company is continued in accordance with the Delaware Act.
Duration and Termination of the Agreement This Agreement shall become effective upon its execution; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not become effective with respect to any Portfolio now existing or hereafter created unless it has first been approved (a) by a vote of the Independent Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (b) if required under the 1940 Act, by an affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting shares of that Portfolio. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect continuously thereafter without the payment of any penalty as follows:
(a) By vote of a majority of the (i) Independent Trustees, or (ii) outstanding voting shares of the applicable Portfolios, the Trust may at any time terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all Portfolios by providing not more than 60 days’ written notice delivered or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Manager and the Subadviser.
(b) This Agreement will terminate automatically with respect to a Portfolio unless, within two years after its initial effectiveness with respect to such Portfolio and at least annually thereafter, the continuance of the Agreement is specifically approved by (i) the Board of Trustees or the shareholders of such Portfolio by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of such Portfolio, and (ii) a majority of the Independent Trustees, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval. If the continuance of this Agreement is submitted to the shareholders of any Portfolio for their approval and such shareholders fail to approve such continuance as provided herein, the Subadviser may continue to serve hereunder in a manner consistent with the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.
(c) The Manager may at any time terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all Portfolios by not less than 60 days’ written notice delivered or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Subadviser, and the Subadviser may at any time terminate this Agreement with respect to any or all Portfolios by not less than 90 days’ written notice delivered or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, to the Manager.
(d) This Agreement automatically and immediately will terminate in the event of its assignment. Upon termination of this Agreement with respect to any Portfolio, the duties of the Manager delegated to the Subadviser under this Agreement with respect to such Portfolio automatically shall revert to the Manager.
Liquidation and Termination On dissolution of the Company, the Manager shall act as liquidator or may appoint one or more Persons as liquidator. The liquidators shall proceed diligently to wind up the affairs of the Company and make final Distributions as provided herein and in the Act. The costs of liquidation shall be borne as a Company expense. Until final distribution, the liquidators shall continue to operate the Company properties with all of the power and authority of the Manager. The steps to be accomplished by the liquidators are as follows:
(a) as promptly as possible after dissolution and again after final liquidation, the liquidators shall cause a proper accounting to be made by a recognized firm of certified public accountants of the Company’s assets, liabilities and operations through the last day of the calendar month in which the dissolution occurs or the final liquidation is completed, as applicable;
(b) the liquidators shall cause the notice described in the Act to be mailed to each known creditor of and claimant against the Company in the manner described thereunder;
(c) the liquidators shall pay, satisfy or discharge from Company funds, or otherwise make adequate provision for payment and discharge thereof (including the establishment of a cash fund for contingent liabilities in such amount and for such term as the liquidators may reasonably determine): first, all expenses incurred in liquidation; and second, all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of the Company;
(d) all remaining assets of the Company shall be distributed to the Members (i) first to the Class B Unitholders, in an amount equal to their respective Class B Preferred Return Base Amount plus all outstanding an accrued Class B Preferred Return Amount, pro rata based on their Class B Units, and then (ii) the balance to the Class A Unitholders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests at the end of the Taxable Year during which the liquidation of the Company occurs (or, if later, by ninety (90) days after the date of the liquidation). The distribution of cash and/or property to the Members in accordance with the provisions of this Section 14.02 and Section 14.03 below constitutes a complete return to the Members of their Capital Contributions and a complete distribution to the Members of their interest in the Company and all the Company’s property. To the extent that a Member returns funds to the Company, such returning Member has no claim against any other Member for those funds; and
