Selection of Brokers and Dealers To the extent permitted by the policy guidelines set forth in the Fund's current registration statement, in the selection of brokers and dealers to execute portfolio transactions, the Subadviser is authorized to consider not only the available prices and rates of brokerage commissions, but also other relevant factors, which may include, without limitation: the execution capabilities of the brokers and dealers; the research, custody, and other services provided by the brokers and dealers that the Subadviser believes will enhance the Subadviser's general portfolio management capabilities; the size of the transaction; the difficulty of execution; the operational facilities of these brokers and dealers; the risk to this broker or dealer of positioning a block of securities; and the overall quality of brokerage and research services provided by these brokers and dealers. In connection with the foregoing, the Subadviser is specifically authorized to pay those brokers and dealers who provide brokerage and research services to the Subadviser, a higher commission than that charged by other brokers and dealers if the Subadviser determines in good faith that the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of these services in terms of either the particular transaction or in terms of the Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to the Portfolio Segment and to any other client accounts or portfolios that the Subadviser advises. The execution of these transactions shall not be considered to represent an unlawful breach of any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise.

Finders and Brokers Except as set forth on Schedule 3.17, no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission from the Purchaser, the Target Companies or any of their respective Affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Purchaser.
Use of Securities Brokers and Dealers In placing purchase and sale orders for the Fund with brokers or dealers, the Sub-Advisor will attempt to obtain “best execution” of such orders. “Best execution” shall mean prompt and reliable execution at the most favorable terms of execution, taking into account price, speed and efficiency of execution, other factors that may be deemed relevant by the Sub-Advisor, and the other provisions hereinafter set forth. Whenever the Sub-Advisor places orders, or directs the placement of orders, for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities on behalf of the Fund, in selecting brokers or dealers to execute such orders, the Sub-Advisor is expressly authorized to consider the fact that a broker or dealer has furnished statistical, research or other information or services that enhance the Sub-Advisor’s research and portfolio management capability generally. It is further understood in accordance with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that the Sub-Advisor may negotiate with and assign to a broker a commission that may exceed the commission that another broker would have charged for effecting the transaction if the Sub-Advisor determines in good faith that the amount of commission charged was reasonable in relation to the value of brokerage and/or research services (as defined in Section 28(e)) provided by such broker, viewed in terms either of the Fund’s or the Sub-Advisor’s overall responsibilities to the Sub-Advisor’s discretionary accounts (the “Section 28(e) Actions”); provided, however, that Sub-Advisor’s ability to engage in Section 28(e) Actions shall be subject to review by the Trustees from time to time, and if such Trustees reasonably determine that the Fund does not benefit, directly or indirectly, from such Section 28(e) Actions, the Sub-Advisor shall be prohibited from engaging in the same. Unless otherwise directed by the Trust or the Advisor in writing, the Sub-Advisor may utilize the service of whatever securities brokerage firm or firms it deems appropriate to the extent that such firms are competitive with respect to price of services and execution, and so long as the Sub-Advisor complies with the “best execution” practices described above and applicable law and regulation.
Brokers and Advisors The Purchaser has taken no action which -------------------- would give rise to a valid claim against any party hereto for a brokerage commission, finder's fee, counseling or advisory fee, or like payment.
Time Brokerage Agreement The Time Brokerage Agreement shall be in full force and effect, and Buyer shall have complied in all material respects with its obligations thereunder.
The Broker Dealer understands and agrees that in performing the services covered by this Agreement, it is acting in the capacity of an independent contractor and not as an agent or employee of PEPCO, and that it is not authorized to act for, or make any representation on behalf of, PEPCO or the Insurer except as specified herein. Broker-Dealer understands and agrees that PEPCO shall execute telephone transfer orders only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the then current prospectus applicable to the contracts and/or policies and agrees that, in consideration for the Broker-Dealer's right to exercise the telephone transfer privilege, neither PEPCO nor the Insurer will be liable for any loss, injury or damage incurred as a result of acting upon, nor will they be held responsible for the authenticity of, any telephone instructions containing unauthorized, incorrect or incomplete information. Broker-Dealer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless PEPCO and the Insurer against any loss, injury or damage resulting from any telephone exchange instruction containing unauthorized, incorrect or incomplete information received from Broker-Dealer or any of its registered representatives. (Telephone instructions are recorded on tape.)
No Brokers The Company has taken no action which would give rise to any claim by any person for brokerage commissions, transaction fees or similar payments relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
Selection of Brokers and Affiliated Transactions (a) Subject to the policies established by, and any direction from the Trust’s Board of Trustees, the Adviser will be responsible for selecting the brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales for a Fund. Subject to the foregoing, it is understood that the Adviser will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Trust or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Trust under this Agreement, or otherwise, solely by reason of its having directed a securities transaction on behalf of a series to a broker-dealer in compliance with the provisions of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or as otherwise permitted from time to time by a series’ Prospectus and SAI.
Brokers, Finders and Agents Buyer is not directly or indirectly obligated to anyone as a broker, finder or in any other similar capacity in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
