Use of Name and Logo The Trust agrees that it shall furnish to the Manager, prior to any use or distribution thereof, copies of all prospectuses, statements of additional information, proxy statements, reports to stockholders, sales literature, advertisements, and other material prepared for distribution to stockholders of the Trust or to the public, which in any way refer to or describe the Manager or which include any trade names, trademarks or logos of the Manager or of any affiliate of the Manager. The Trust further agrees that it shall not use or distribute any such material if the Manager reasonably objects in writing to such use or distribution within five (5) business days after the date such material is furnished to the Manager. The Manager and/or its affiliates own the names "Sierra", "Composite" and any other names which may be listed from time to time on a Schedule B to be attached hereto that they may develop for use in connection with the Trust, which names may be used by the Trust only with the consent of the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, consents to the use by the Trust of such names or any other names embodying such names, but only on condition and so long as (i) this Agreement shall remain in full force, (ii) the Fund and the Trust shall fully perform, fulfill and comply with all provisions of this Agreement expressed herein to be performed, fulfilled or complied with by it, and (iii) the Manager is the manager of each Fund of the Trust. No such name shall be used by the Trust at any time or in any place or for any purposes or under any conditions except as provided in this section. The foregoing authorization by the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, to the Trust to use such names as part of a business or name is not exclusive of the right of the Manager and/or its affiliates themselves to use, or to authorize others to use, the same; the Trust acknowledges and agrees that as between the Manager and/or its affiliates and a Fund or the Trust, the Manager and/or its affiliates have the exclusive right so to use, or authorize others to use, such names, and the Trust agrees to take such action as may reasonably be requested by the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, to give full effect to the provisions of this section (including, without limitation, consenting to such use of such names). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trust agrees that, upon (i) any violation of the provisions of this Agreement by the Trust or (ii) any termination of this Agreement, by either party or otherwise, the Trust will, at the request of the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, made within six months after such violation or termination, use its best efforts to change the name of the Trust so as to eliminate all reference, if any, to such names and will not thereafter transact any business in a name containing such names in any form or combination whatsoever, or designate itself as the same entity as or successor to an entity of such names, or otherwise use such names or any other reference to the Manager and/or its affiliates, except as may be required by law. Such covenants on the part of the Trust shall be binding upon it, its Trustees, officers, shareholders, creditors and all other persons claiming under or through it. The provisions of this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
