In executing portfolio transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub- Adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of the Series the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Sub-Adviser shall consider all factors that it deems relevant, including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer, and the reasonableness of the commission, if any, both for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Sub-Adviser may also consider the brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) provided to the Series and other accounts over which the Sub-Adviser or an affiliate of the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser is authorized, subject to the prior approval of the Adviser and the Fund's Board of Directors, to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for any of the Series which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if, but only if, the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer as viewed in terms of that particular transaction or in terms of the overall responsibilities of the Sub-Adviser to the Series. In addition, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to take into account the sale of the Fund's shares in allocating purchase and sale orders for portfolio securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or the Fund's principal underwriter), provided that the Sub-Adviser believes that the quality of the execution and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, the Fund's principal underwriter or any affiliated person of any of the Fund, the Adviser, Sub-Adviser, or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission and other applicable federal and state laws and regulations; (f) maintain historical tax lots for each portfolio security held by the Series; (g) transmit trades to the Fund's custodian for proper settlement; and (h) prepare a quarterly broker security transaction summary and monthly security transaction listing for each Series.
