Sub-Distributors MMLD may enter into sub-distributor’s agreements with persons (“Sub-Distributors”) pursuant to which MMLD delegates any or all of its functions hereunder to one or more Sub-Distributors provided that a majority of the Trust’s Board of Directors that are not interested persons of the Trust or MMLD approve the agreement.
