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.
Concurrent Transactions All documents or other deliveries required to be made by Purchaser or Seller at Closing, and all transactions required to be consummated concurrently with Closing, shall be deemed to have been delivered and to have been consummated simultaneously with all other transactions and all other deliveries, and no delivery shall be deemed to have been made, and no transaction shall be deemed to have been consummated, until all deliveries required by Purchaser and Seller shall have been made, and all concurrent or other transactions shall have been consummated.
Sale Transaction Paragraph (a) of the definition of “Sale Transaction” is amended and restated as follows: “(a) A sale or other disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of its assets;”. The word “or” is inserted (i) after the end of Paragraph (a) of the definition of Sale Transaction and before the beginning of Paragraph (b) of the definition of Sale Transaction; and (ii) after the end of Paragraph (b) of the definition of Sale Transaction and before the beginning of Paragraph (c) of the definition of Sale Transaction. Paragraph (d) of the definition of Sale Transaction shall be deleted in its entirety.
Separate Account Transactions Investment decisions for the Separate Account shall be made by the Sub-Advisor independently from those for any other investment companies and accounts advised or managed by the Sub-Advisor. The Separate Account and such investment companies and accounts may, however, invest in the same securities. When the Sub-Advisor seeks to purchase or sell the same security at substantially the same time on behalf of the Separate Account and/or another investment company or account, the Sub-Advisor shall, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent reasonably practicable, aggregate such orders or otherwise effect such transaction on an average price basis, and available investments will be allocated as to amount in a manner which the Sub-Advisor believes to be equitable to the Fund and such other investment company or account. In some instances, this investment procedure may adversely affect the price paid or received by the Fund or the size of the position obtained or sold by the Fund. To the extent permitted by law, the Sub-Advisor may aggregate the securities to be sold or purchased for the Separate Account with those to be sold or purchased for other investment companies or accounts in order to obtain best execution on an overall basis for all the Sub-Advisor’s clients. The Sub-Advisor shall place orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Separate Account and will solicit broker-dealers to execute transactions in accordance with the Fund’s policies and restrictions regarding brokerage allocations. If applicable, the Sub-Advisor shall place orders pursuant to its investment determinations for the Separate Account either directly with the issuer or with any broker or dealer. If it executes portfolio transactions and selects brokers or dealers, the Sub-Advisor shall use its reasonable best efforts to seek the most favorable execution of orders, after taking into account all factors the Sub-Advisor 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. Consistent with this obligation, the Sub-Advisor may, to the extent permitted by law, purchase and sell portfolio securities to and from brokers and dealers who provide brokerage and/or research services (within the meaning of Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to or for the benefit of the Separate Account and/or other accounts over which the Sub-Advisor or any of its affiliates exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Advisor is authorized to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and/or research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for the Separate Account which is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Sub-Advisor determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Sub-Advisor’s overall responsibilities to the Fund. In no instance will portfolio securities be purchased from or sold to the Advisor or the Sub-Advisor or any affiliated person of either thereof; except as permitted by Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
