Transactions for the Account. Manager will arrange for securities transactions for the Account to be executed through those brokers, dealers or banks that Manager believes will provide best execution. In choosing a broker, dealer or bank, Manager will consider the broker, dealer or bank's execution capability, reputation and access to the markets for the securities being traded for the Account. Manager will seek competitive commission rates, but not necessarily the lowest rates available. Manager may also send transactions for the Account to brokers who charge higher commissions than other brokers, provided that Manager determines in good faith that the amount of commissions Manager pays is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided, viewed in terms either of that particular transaction or Manager’s overall responsibilities with respect to all clients whose accounts Manager manages on a discretionary basis. Portfolio transactions for each client account generally are completed independently. However, if Manager decides to purchase or sell the same securities for Client and other clients at about the same time, Manager may combine Client's order with those of other clients if Manager reasonably believes that it will be able to negotiate better prices or lower commission rates or transaction costs for the combined order than for Client's order alone. Client will pay the average price and transaction costs obtained for such combined orders. Manager generally will allocate securities purchased or sold as part of a combined order to Client's Account and to accounts of other clients according to the size of the order placed for each client. If Manager is unable to obtain execution for the total amount of the securities in the combined orders, adjustments to the allocation will generally be made on a random methodology basis with the exception of certain alternative high yield fixed income security transactions which are allocated on a pro-rata basis. However, Manager may increase or decrease the amounts of securities allocated to each client if necessary to avoid having odd or small number of shares held for the account of any client and may deviate from a selected allocation methodology based on, among other factors, available cash in the account or account-specific investment guidelines. Each client that participates in a combined order will receive or pay the average share price and/or transactions costs for all transactions executed as part of the combined order. If Client directs Manager to use particular brokers, dealers or banks to execute transactions for the Account, Manager will do so, but Manager will not seek better execution services or prices for Client from other brokers, dealers or banks, and Client may pay higher prices or transaction costs as a result. Manager also may not be able to seek better execution services for Client by combining Client's orders with those of other clients. Client may direct all transactions for the Account to a particular broker, dealer or bank, by providing written notice to Manger with the name and address of that broker, dealer or bank. Client understands and accepts the limitations that this direction will place on Manager's ability to seek best execution for the Account. Any tax-related documentation required by broker/dealers and/or custodian banks shall be completed by Client. This includes Forms W-9 or W-8 which are necessary to confirm Client's tax identification number and certification of tax status. Upon receipt, Client shall process promptly as failure to do so may result in transactions in the Client's account to be subject to backup withholding payments.
