COMPENSATION TO THE ADVISOR The Trust shall pay the Advisor, out of the assets of a Fund, as full compensation for all services rendered, an advisory fee for such Fund set forth below. Such fee shall be calculated by applying the following annual rates to the average daily net assets of such Fund for the calendar year computed in the manner used for the determination of the net asset value of shares of such Fund.
Asset Management Fee The fee payable to the Advisor for day-to-day professional management services in connection with the Company and its investments in Assets pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of this Agreement.
The Advisor Subject to the provisions of Section 3 of this Agreement, the Advisor and each officer, director, shareholder and employee of the Advisor and each person who controls the Advisor, shall be indemnified, defended and held harmless by the Company and the Administrator, jointly and severally, from and against any and all claims, losses, judgments, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable investigatory and attorneys’ fees and reasonable expenses) and amounts paid in settlement of any claims in compliance with the conditions specified below (collectively, “Losses”) sustained by the Advisor (i) in connection with any acts or omissions of the Advisor or any of its officers, directors or employees relating to its management of the Allocated Assets, including in connection with this Agreement or otherwise as a result of the Advisor’s performance of services on behalf of the Company or its role as trading advisor in respect of the Allocated Assets and/or (ii) as a result of a material breach of this Agreement by the Company; provided, however, that (i) such Losses were not the result of the gross negligence, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement on the part of the Advisor, its officers, directors, shareholders and employees and each person controlling the Advisor, (ii) the Advisor and its officers, directors, shareholders and employees and each person controlling the Advisor, acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed by it and them to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and (iii) any such indemnification will only be recoverable from the Allocated Assets and the assets of the Administrator; and provided further that no indemnification shall be permitted under this Section 2 for amounts paid in settlement if either (A) the Advisor fails to notify the Company of the terms of any settlement proposed, at least fifteen (15) days before any amounts are paid or (B) the Company does not approve the amount of the settlement within fifteen (15) days of any such notice (such approval not to be withheld unreasonably). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall at all times have the right to offer to settle any matter with the approval of the Advisor (which approval shall not be withheld unreasonably), and if the Company successfully negotiates a settlement and tenders payment therefor to the party claiming indemnification (the “Indemnitee”), the Indemnitee must either use its best efforts to dispose of the matter in accordance with the terms and conditions of the proposed settlement or the Indemnitee may refuse to settle the matter and continue its defense in which latter event the maximum liability of the Company and the Administrator to the Indemnitee shall be the amount of said proposed settlement.
Investment Management Fee For services provided under subparagraph (b) of paragraph 1 of this Agreement, the Advisor agrees to pay the Sub-Advisor a monthly Investment Management Fee. The Investment Management Fee shall be equal to: (i) 50% of the monthly management fee rate (including performance adjustments, if any) that the Portfolio is obligated to pay the Advisor under its Management Contract with the Advisor, multiplied by: (ii) the fraction equal to the net assets of the Portfolio as to which the Sub-Advisor shall have provided investment management services divided by the net assets of the Portfolio for that month. If in any fiscal year the aggregate expenses of the Portfolio exceed any applicable expense limitation imposed by any state or federal securities laws or regulations, and the Advisor waives all or a portion of its management fee or reimburses the Portfolio for expenses to the extent required to satisfy such limitation, the Investment Management Fee paid to the Sub-Advisor will be reduced by 50% of the amount of such waivers or reimbursements multiplied by the fraction determined in (ii). If the Sub-Advisor reduces its fees to reflect such waivers or reimbursements and the Advisor subsequently recovers all or any portion of such waivers and reimbursements, then the Sub-Advisor shall be entitled to receive from the Advisor a proportionate share of the amount recovered. To the extent that waivers and reimbursements by the Advisor required by such limitations are in excess of the Advisor's management fee, the Investment Management Fee paid to the Sub-Advisor will be reduced to zero for that month, but in no event shall the Sub-Advisor be required to reimburse the Advisor for all or a portion of such excess reimbursements.
