Portfolio Transactions The Manager is authorized to select the brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales of portfolio securities for the Portfolio and is directed to use its best efforts to obtain the best available prices and most favorable executions, except as prescribed herein. It is understood that the Manager will not be deemed to have acted unlawfully, or to have breached a fiduciary duty to the Fund or to the Portfolio, or be in breach of any obligation owing to the Fund or to the Portfolio under this Agreement, or otherwise, solely by reason of its having caused the Portfolio to pay a member of a securities exchange, a broker, or a dealer a commission for effecting a securities transaction for the Portfolio in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker, or dealer would have charged if the Manager determines in good faith that the commission paid was reasonable in relation to the brokerage or research services provided by such member, broker, or dealer, viewed in terms of that particular transaction or the Manager’s overall responsibilities with respect to its accounts, including the Fund, as to which it exercises investment discretion. The Manager will promptly communicate to the officers and directors of the Fund such information relating to transactions for the Portfolio as they may reasonably request.
