Long Service Leave (1) Subject to subclause (3) of this clause, an employee who has completed ten years’ continuous service with the employer shall be entitled to (a) up to 31 December 2006, ten weeks’ long service leave (b) from 1 January 2007, thirteen weeks’ long service leave (c) For each subsequent period of ten years’ service an employee shall be entitled to an additional thirteen weeks’ long service leave. (2) An employee who has accrued a minimum entitlement of ten weeks’ long service leave shall be entitled to take such leave. (3) Employees are entitled to take long service leave in minimum periods of one week. (4) In calculating an employee’s entitlement under this clause, continuous service with the employer prior to the 1st day of January 1997 shall be taken into account in the following manner: (a) In the case of an employee who has already accrued an entitlement to long service leave with the employer prior to the 1st day of January, 1997, the employee shall continue to accrue subsequent entitlements to long service leave in accordance with the provisions of subclause (1) of this clause. (b) In the case of an employee who, at the 1st day of January 1997, had not accrued an entitlement to long service leave, the employee’s entitlement shall be calculated on the following basis: For any period of continuous employment prior to the 1st day of January 1997, an amount calculated on the basis of 13 weeks’ long service leave on full pay for each 15 years of continuous service, in accordance with the relevant award. (c) In the case of employees who have worked less than full-time during the accrual period, long service leave shall be paid at the rate of the average of hours worked over the accrual period. (5) The expression “continuous service” includes any period during which the employee is absent on full pay from their duties, but does not include: (a) Any period exceeding two weeks during which the employee is absent on leave without pay. In the case of leave without pay which exceeds eight weeks in a continuous period, the entire period of that leave is excised in full; (b) Any service of an employee who resigns or is dismissed, other than service prior to such resignation or prior to the date of any offence in respect of which they are dismissed by the employer, when that prior service has actually entitled the employee to long service leave under this clause. (6) Any entitlement to annual leave that falls due during the period of long service leave shall be recognised as extra leave and not included in the long service leave. (7) Any public holiday which occurs during the period an employee is on long service leave shall be treated as part of the long service leave and extra days in lieu thereof shall not be granted. (8) Where an employee has become entitled to a period of long service leave in accordance with this clause, the employee shall commence such leave as soon as possible after the accrual date, or in a manner mutually agreed between the employer and employee. (9) Payment for long service leave shall be made; (a) in full before the employee goes on leave, or (b) by the normal fortnightly payment intervals; (c) or by agreement between the employee and the employer. (10) Where an employee has completed at least 7 years’ service but less than 10 years’ service and employment is terminated- (a) by their death; (b) in any circumstances, other than serious misconduct, the amount of leave shall be such proportion to the number of completed years of such service bears to 10 years. (11) In the case to which subclause (8) of this clause applies and in any case in which the employment of the employee who has become entitled to leave hereunder is terminated before such leave is taken or fully taken the employer shall, upon termination of employment otherwise than by death, pay to the employee and upon termination by death, pay to the personal representative of the employee upon request by the personal representative, a sum equivalent to the amount which would have been payable in respect of the period of leave to which they are entitled or deemed to have been entitled and which would have been taken but for termination. Such payment shall be deemed to have satisfied the obligation of the employer in respect of leave hereunder. (12) Where an employee is ill during a period of long service leave and produces at the time, or as soon as practicable thereafter, medical evidence that would satisfy a reasonable person that as a result of illness or injury the employee was confined to their place of residence or a medical facility for a period of at least fourteen (14) consecutive days, the employer shall grant sick leave for the period the employee was so confined and reinstate long service leave equivalent to the period of confinement.
Jury Service Leave An employee required to attend for jury service will be entitled to have their pay made up by the employer to equal their ordinary rate for eight (8) hours (inclusive of accrued entitlements prescribed by Clause 31 – Hours of work) per day plus fares whilst meeting this requirement. The employee will give the employer proof of such attendance and the amount received in respect of such jury service.

Quality and Extent of Services The Board considered the terms of the Agreement, including the scope of advisory services provided under the Agreement. The Board noted that, under the Agreement, XXXX provides portfolio management services to the Fund and that, pursuant to a separate administrative services agreement, DIMA provides administrative services to the Fund. The Board considered the experience and skills of senior management and investment personnel and the resources made available to such personnel. The Board also considered the risks to XXXX in sponsoring or managing the Fund, including financial, operational and reputational risks, the potential economic impact to XXXX from such risks and XXXX’s approach to addressing such risks. The Board reviewed the Fund’s performance over short-term and long-term periods and compared those returns to various agreed-upon performance measures, including market index(es) and a peer universe compiled using information supplied by Morningstar Direct (“Morningstar”), an independent fund data service. The Board also noted that it has put into place a process of identifying “Funds in Review” (e.g., funds performing poorly relative to a peer universe), and receives additional reporting from XXXX regarding such funds and, where appropriate, XXXX’s plans to address underperformance. The Board believes this process is an effective manner of identifying and addressing underperforming funds. Based on the information provided, the Board noted that, for the one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2020, the Fund’s performance (Class A shares) was in the 2nd quartile of the applicable Morningstar universe (the 1st quartile being the best performers and the 4th quartile being the worst performers). The Board also observed that the Fund has underperformed its benchmark in the one-, three- and five-year periods ended December 31, 2020. Fees and Expenses. The Board considered the Fund’s investment management fee schedule, operating expenses and total expense ratios, and comparative information provided by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”) and the Fee Consultant regarding investment management fee rates paid to other investment advisors by similar funds
