Any arrangements involving soft dollars and/or brokerage services shall be effected in compliance with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the policies that the Adviser and the Board may adopt from time to time. The Subadviser agrees to provide reports to the Adviser as necessary for purposes of providing information on these arrangements to the Board.
