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.)
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.
Selection of Brokers The Sub-adviser is authorized to select the brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales of portfolio securities and other property for a Fund in a manner that implements the policy with respect to brokerage set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for the Fund or as the Board of Directors or the Investment Manager may direct from time to time and in conformity with federal securities laws. In executing Fund transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub-adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of the Fund 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 provided (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Consistent with any guidelines established by the Board of Directors and communicated to the Sub-adviser, the Sub-adviser is authorized to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for a Fund that 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 viewed in terms of that particular transaction or terms of the overall responsibilities of the Sub-adviser to the Fund. In addition, the Sub-adviser is authorized to allocate purchase and sale orders for securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Investment Manager, Sub-adviser or the Company's principal underwriter) to take into account the sale of shares of the Company if the Sub-adviser believes that the quality of the transaction and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will Fund assets be purchased from or sold to the Investment Manager, Sub-adviser, the Company's principal underwriter, or any affiliated person of either the Company, the Investment 4 Manager, Sub-adviser or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the 1940 Act.
Affiliated Brokers The Adviser or any of its affiliates may act as broker in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other investments for a Fund, subject to: (i) the requirement that the Adviser seek to obtain best execution and price within the policy guidelines determined by the Board and set forth in the Fund’s current prospectus and SAI; (ii) the provisions of the 1940 Act; (iii) the provisions of the Advisers Act; (iv) the provisions of the 1934 Act; and (v) other provisions of applicable law. These brokerage services are not within the scope of the duties of the Adviser under this Agreement. Subject to the requirements of applicable law and any procedures adopted by the Board, the Adviser or its affiliates may receive brokerage commissions, fees or other remuneration from a Fund for these services in addition to the Adviser’s fees for services under this Agreement.
No Broker Neither Seller nor any Affiliate of Seller has dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other Person, except for Buyer or an Affiliate of Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with any Transaction.

Participating Broker Dealer’s acceptance of this Agreement constitutes a representation and warranty to the Company and the Dealer Manager that Participating Broker-Dealer has established and implemented an anti-money laundering compliance program (“AML Program”) in accordance with applicable law, including applicable FINRA Rules, rules promulgated by the SEC and the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act (USA PATRIOT Act) of 2001, as amended by the USA Patriot Improvement and Reauthorization Act of 2005 (the “USA PATRIOT Act”), specifically including, but not limited to, Section 352 of the International Money Laundering Abatement and Anti-Terrorist Financing Act of 2001 (the “Money Laundering Abatement Act” and together with the USA PATRIOT Act, the “AML Rules”), reasonably expected to detect and cause the reporting of suspicious transactions in connection with the sale of Primary Shares. Participating Broker-Dealer covenants that it will perform all activities it is required to perform by applicable AML Rules and its AML Program with respect to all customers on whose behalf Participating Broker-Dealer submits orders to the Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Participating Broker-Dealer will share information with the Dealer Manager and the Company for purposes of ascertaining whether a suspicious activity report is warranted with respect to any suspicious transaction involving the purchase or intended purchase of Primary Shares. Upon request by the Dealer Manager at any time, Participating Broker-Dealer hereby agrees to (i) furnish a written copy of its AML Program and relevant legal requirements to the Dealer Manager for review, and (ii) furnish a copy of the findings and any remedial actions taken in connection with Participating Broker-Dealer’s most recent independent testing of its AML Program. Participating Broker-Dealer further represents and warrants that (i) it is currently in compliance with all AML Rules, specifically including, but not limited to, the Customer Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the Money Laundering Abatement Act and Participating Broker-Dealer will remain in compliance with such requirements, (ii) it has Know Your Customer (KYC) policies and procedures in place, (iii) the Participating Broker-Dealer’s AML Program has been adopted by a person with sufficient authority to oversee the AML policies and procedures, and (iv) the Participating Broker-Dealer’s AML Program has education and/or training programs for officers and employees regarding AML policies and procedures. Participating Dealer shall, upon request by the Dealer Manager, provide a certification to Dealer Manager that, as of the date of such certification (i) its AML Program is consistent with the AML Rules, (ii) it has continued to implement its AML Program and has complied with the provisions of its AML Program, and (iii) it is currently in compliance with all AML Rules, specifically including, but not limited to, the Customer Identification Program requirements under Section 326 of the Money Laundering Abatement Act.
