Allocation of Brokerage The Subadviser shall have authority and discretion to select brokers and dealers to execute Designated Series transactions initiated by the Subadviser, and to select the markets on or in which the transactions will be executed.
Selection of Brokers The Sub-adviser is authorized to select the brokers or dealers that will execute the purchases and sales of portfolio securities and other property for a Fund in a manner that implements the policy with respect to brokerage set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for the Fund or as the Board of Directors or the Investment Manager may direct from time to time and in conformity with federal securities laws. In executing Fund transactions and selecting brokers or dealers, the Sub-adviser will use its best efforts to seek on behalf of the Fund the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Sub-adviser shall consider all factors that it 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. In evaluating the best overall terms available, and in selecting the broker-dealer to execute a particular transaction, the Sub-adviser may also consider the brokerage and research services provided (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Consistent with any guidelines established by the Board of Directors and communicated to the Sub-adviser, the Sub-adviser is authorized to pay to a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for a Fund that is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if, but only if, the Sub-adviser determines in good faith that such commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer viewed in terms of that particular transaction or terms of the overall responsibilities of the Sub-adviser to the Fund. In addition, the Sub-adviser is authorized to allocate purchase and sale orders for securities to brokers or dealers (including brokers and dealers that are affiliated with the Investment Manager, Sub-adviser or the Company's principal underwriter) to take into account the sale of shares of the Company if the Sub-adviser believes that the quality of the transaction and the commission are comparable to what they would be with other qualified firms. In no instance, however, will Fund assets be purchased from or sold to the Investment Manager, Sub-adviser, the Company's principal underwriter, or any affiliated person of either the Company, the Investment 4 Manager, Sub-adviser or the principal underwriter, acting as principal in the transaction, except to the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and the 1940 Act.
Selection of Brokers and Dealers To the extent permitted by the policy guidelines set forth in the Trust's current Prospectus and SAI, in the selection of brokers and dealers to execute portfolio transactions, the Subadviser is authorized to consider not only the available prices and rates of brokerage commissions, but also other relevant factors, which may include, without limitation: the execution capabilities of the brokers and dealers; the research, custody, and other services provided by the brokers and dealers that the Subadviser believes will enhance its general portfolio management capabilities; the size of the transaction; the difficulty of execution; the operational facilities of these brokers and dealers; the risk to a broker or dealer of positioning a block of securities; and the overall quality of brokerage and research services provided by the brokers and dealers. In connection with the foregoing, the Subadviser is specifically authorized to pay those brokers and dealers who provide brokerage and research services to the Subadviser a higher commission than that charged by other brokers and dealers if the Subadviser determines in good faith that the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the services in terms of either the particular transaction or in terms of the Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to the Portfolio and to any other client accounts or portfolios that the Subadviser advises. The execution of such transactions shall not be considered to represent an unlawful breach of any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise.

Portfolio Transactions and Brokerage (a) The Manager is authorized, in arranging the purchase and sale of the Fund’s publicly-traded portfolio securities, to employ or deal with such members of securities exchanges, brokers or dealers (hereinafter “broker-dealers”), including broker-dealers that are affiliated persons of the Fund or the Manager, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, as may, in its best judgment, implement the policy of the Fund to obtain the best execution of the Fund’s portfolio transactions.
Real Estate Brokers (See also Paragraph 15)
Selection of Broker-Dealers In selecting broker-dealers qualified to execute a particular transaction, brokers or dealers may be selected who also provide brokerage or research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) to the Adviser and/or the other accounts over which the Adviser or its affiliates exercise investment discretion. The Adviser is authorized to pay a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage or research services a commission for executing a portfolio transaction for the Series that is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage or research services provided by such broker or dealer and is paid in compliance with Section 28(e). This determination may be viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities that the Adviser and its affiliates have with respect to accounts over which they exercise investment discretion. The Adviser may consider the sale of shares of the Series and of other investment companies advised by the Adviser as a factor in the selection of brokers or dealers to effect transactions for the Series, subject to the Adviser's duty to seek best execution. The Adviser may also select brokers or dealers to effect transactions for the Series that provide payment for expenses of the Series. The Board shall periodically review the commissions paid by the Series to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods of time were reasonable in relation to the benefits received.
