The Manager shall also make recommendations as to the manner in which voting rights, rights to consent to corporate action and any other rights pertaining to the Trust's portfolio securities shall be exercised. Should the Board of Trustees of the Trust at any time, however, make any definite determination as to investment policy applicable to the Trust and notify the Manager thereof in writing, the Manager shall be bound by such determination for the period, if any, specified in such notice or until similarly notified that such determination has been revoked. The Manager shall take, on behalf of the Trust, all actions which it deems necessary to implement the investment policies determined as provided above, and in particular to place all orders for the purchase or sale of securities for the Trust's account with the brokers or dealers selected by it, and to that end the Manager is authorized as the agent of the Trust to give instructions to the custodian or any subcustodian of the Trust as to deliveries of securities and payments of cash for the account of the Trust.
