The Sub-Adviser will determine from time to time what securities and other investments will be purchased, retained or sold with respect to the Sub-Advised Assets of each Fund, and the brokers and dealers through whom trades will be executed. (b) The Sub-Adviser agrees that, in placing orders with brokers and dealers, it will attempt to obtain the best net result in terms of price and execution. Consistent with this obligation, the Sub-Adviser may, in its discretion, purchase and sell portfolio securities from and to brokers and dealers who sell shares of the Funds or provide the Funds, Adviser's other clients, or Sub-Adviser's other clients with research, analysis, advice and similar services. The Sub-Adviser may pay to brokers and dealers, in return for such research and analysis, a higher commission or spread than may be charged by other brokers and dealers, subject to the Sub-Adviser determining in good faith that such commission or spread is reasonable in terms either of the particular transaction or of the overall responsibility of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser to the Funds and their other clients and that the total commissions or spreads paid by each Fund will be reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Fund over the long term. In no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Sub-Adviser, or any affiliated person thereof, except in accordance with the applicable securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder and any exemptive orders currently in effect. Whenever the Sub-Adviser simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the same security on behalf of a Fund and one or more other accounts advised by the Sub-Adviser, such orders will be allocated as to price and amount among all such accounts in a manner believed to be equitable to each account. (c) The Sub-Adviser will maintain all required books and records with respect to the securities transactions of the Funds, and will furnish the Board and Adviser with such periodic and special reports as the Board or Adviser reasonably may request. Sub-Adviser hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the Adviser are the property of the Adviser, and agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by applicable law any records which it maintains for the Adviser and which are required to be maintained, and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Adviser any records which it maintains for the Adviser upon request by the Adviser.

(b) Invesco PowerShares Capital Management agrees that, in placing orders with brokers, it will attempt to obtain the best net result in terms of price and execution; provided that, on behalf of any Fund, Invesco PowerShares Capital Management may, in its discretion, use brokers who provide Invesco PowerShares Capital Management with research, analysis, advice and similar services, and Invesco PowerShares Capital Management may cause a Fund to pay to those brokers in return for brokerage and research services a higher commission than may be charged by other brokers, subject to Invesco PowerShares Capital Management’s determining in good faith that such commission is reasonable in relation to the research and execution services received. In no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to Invesco PowerShares Capital Management, or any affiliated person thereof, except in accordance with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, or any applicable exemptive orders. Invesco PowerShares Capital Management may aggregate sales and purchase orders with respect to the assets of the Funds with similar orders being made simultaneously for other accounts advised by Invesco PowerShares Capital Management or its affiliates. Whenever Invesco PowerShares Capital Management simultaneously places orders to purchase or sell the same security on behalf of a Fund and one or more other accounts advised by Invesco PowerShares Capital Management, such orders will be allocated as to price and amount among all such accounts in a manner believed to be equitable, over time, to each account.
