THIS SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made as of [ ] (the “Effective Date”) by and between XXXXXXX XXXXX ASSET MANAGEMENT, L.P. (“Investment Manager”) and [Sub-Adviser] (“Sub-Adviser”).

WHEREAS, Xxxxxxx Sachs Trust II, a Delaware statutory trust (“Trust”), is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”); and

WHEREAS, pursuant to a Management Agreement (“Management Agreement”) by and between the Trust and the Investment Manager, a copy of which has been provided to the Sub-Adviser, the Trust has appointed the Investment Manager to furnish investment advisory and other services to the Trust on behalf of Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Multi-Manager Alternatives Fund, a series of the Trust (“Fund”); and

WHEREAS, the Management Agreement authorizes the Investment Manager to provide, either directly or through third parties, investment advisory services with respect to the Fund; and

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Investment Manager desires to retain the Sub-Adviser to furnish sub-investment advisory services on behalf of the Fund;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, it is agreed between the parties hereto as follows:

1. Engagement of the Sub-Adviser. (a) The Investment Manager hereby engages the services of the Sub-Adviser in furtherance of the Management Agreement with the Trust on behalf of the Fund. The Investment Manager may, in its sole discretion, allocate all, only a portion or none of the Fund’s assets to the Sub-Adviser for management. The Sub-Adviser will be responsible for the investment of only the assets which the Investment Manager allocates to the Sub-Adviser for management under this Agreement, plus all investments, reinvestments and proceeds of the sale thereof, including, without limitation, all interest, dividends and appreciation on investments, less depreciation thereof and withdrawals by the Investment Manager therefrom (the “Allocated Assets”), there being no minimum or maximum percentage of the Fund’s assets to be allocated to the Sub-Adviser from time to time hereunder. The Sub-Adviser accepts its engagement under this Section 1.

(b) Pursuant to this Agreement and subject to the supervision and oversight of the Investment Manager, the Sub-Adviser shall, with respect to the Allocated Assets, provide the Fund with investment research, advice and supervision and furnish a continuous investment program for and manage the investment and reinvestment of the Allocated Assets. In this regard, the Sub-Adviser shall, with respect to the Allocated Assets, determine in its discretion the securities, cash and other financial instruments to be purchased, retained or sold for the Fund within the parameters of the investment approach, policies, restrictions and guidelines applicable to the Allocated Assets as provided by the Investment Manager to the Sub-Adviser, as amended in writing from time to time by the Investment Manager (the “Investment Guidelines”), the provisions of this Agreement, all applicable laws, rules and regulations and the Fund’s registration statement on Form N-1A under the 1940 Act as amended from time to time, or any successor form thereto (the “Registration Statement”).

(c) The Sub-Adviser’s authority hereunder shall include the power to buy, sell, and hold such securities and other instruments, to open accounts and execute trading agreements and any other reasonable and customary documents and representation letters on behalf of the Fund (i.e., with respect to the Allocated Assets) as the Sub-Adviser deems appropriate within the parameters of Section 1(b) and the conditions of this Agreement. The Sub-Adviser agrees that, prior to opening (or amending) any accounts, including prime brokerage and futures accounts with brokerage firms or other financial institutions and any related clearing agreements or control agreements on behalf of the Fund, the Fund shall have an opportunity to review and consent to the terms of, and the use of, any such account opening documents, prime brokerage, futures and related clearing agreements or control agreements. The Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser acknowledge and agree that the Sub-Adviser shall neither be required nor authorized to enter into on behalf of the Fund any ISDA master agreement, master repurchase agreement, master securities lending agreement, or any other master swap or other master over-the-counter trading documentation, including any schedule or credit support annex thereto (“OTC Agreements”). The Sub-Adviser agrees that it shall execute all applicable transactions using OTC Agreements entered into by the Investment Manager on behalf of the Fund. The exercise or the performance of any consent right by the Fund (as described above) shall not relieve the Sub-Adviser of its liability, if any, or responsibilities hereunder. The Sub-Adviser agrees to comply with “Counterparty Terms” as provided by the Investment Manager to the Sub-Adviser in writing from time to time with respect to each applicable Counterparty (as defined below) and executing broker and each applicable transaction with a Counterparty and to provide Counterparty reports of the type described in Section 6(c). For purposes of this section, the term “Counterparty” includes a clearing broker, prime broker, dealer, foreign currency dealer, futures commission merchant, or bank.

(d) The Sub-Adviser is hereby appointed the Fund’s agent and attorney-in-fact to exercise in its discretion all rights and perform all duties which may be exercisable in relation to any Allocated Assets, including without limitation the right to vote (or in its discretion, refrain from voting), tender, exchange, endorse, transfer, or deliver any securities on behalf of the Fund, to participate in or consent to any class action, distribution, plan of reorganization, creditors committee, merger, combination, consolidation, liquidation, underwriting, or similar plan with reference to such securities; and to execute and bind the Fund in waivers, consents and covenants related thereto. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sub-Adviser has sole and full discretion to vote (or not to vote) any securities in the Allocated Assets and neither the Fund nor the Investment Manager will, directly or indirectly, attempt to influence the Sub-Adviser’s voting decisions. Further, to the extent the Investment Manager is affiliated with a bank holding company, the Investment Manager will not provide instruction to the Sub-Adviser on how to vote securities of any U.S. bank holding company (as that term is defined in the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended). The Sub-Adviser represents and covenants that it has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures as required under Rule 206(4)-6 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (“Advisers Act”), a copy of which has been provided to the Fund and the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”), and that it will promptly provide (i) any updates of such policies and procedures to the Fund and the Board, (ii) its voting records with respect to the Allocated Assets to the Fund or the Fund’s proxy voting service, as the Fund may direct, so that the Fund meets its annual disclosure requirement pursuant to Rule 30b1-4 under the 1940 Act, and (iii) reports to the Investment Manager and/or the Board, as the Fund may direct, in instances where the Sub-Adviser votes counter to its proxy voting policies. The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for responding to any class action claim with respect to any investment(s) made with the Allocated Assets and shall notify promptly the Fund of any such claims.

(e) The Sub-Adviser shall discharge its responsibilities hereunder subject to the supervision of the Investment Manager, the Board and the officers of the Trust and in compliance with (i) the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act, and the rules and regulations adopted under each from time to time; (ii) the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code); (iii) the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (“CEA”), and the rules and regulations adopted thereunder from time to time; (iv) all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations, including without limitation, the rules of any self-regulatory organization; (v) the Trust’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and By-Laws, as each may be amended from time to time; (vi) the objectives, policies and limitations for the Fund set forth in the Registration Statement; and (vii) the Investment Guidelines and such other guidelines, policies and procedures adopted by the Board or implemented by the Investment Manager with respect to the Fund or to the Sub-Adviser’s activities under this Agreement and provided to the Sub-Adviser in writing (“Board/Investment Manager Procedures”). The Sub-Adviser shall maintain compliance procedures and operational processes for the Fund to ensure the Fund’s compliance with the foregoing and that the Sub-Adviser reasonably believes are adequate to ensure its compliance with applicable law. No supervisory activity undertaken by the Investment Manager shall limit the Sub-Adviser’s full responsibility for any of the foregoing.

(f) The Sub-Adviser shall not consult with any other sub-investment adviser for the Fund or the Trust or any other fund under common control with the Trust, concerning transactions for the Fund in securities or other assets, except that such consultations are permitted between the current and successor sub-investment advisers of the Fund in order to effect an orderly transition of sub-advisory duties so long as such consultations are not concerning transactions prohibited by Section 17(a) of the 1940 Act.

(g) In providing investment advisory and other services to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser shall not provide any such services from any jurisdiction other than [ ] or any other jurisdiction that the Investment Manager may permit in writing (each of the foregoing, an “Authorized Jurisdiction”). In the event that the Investment Manager notifies the Sub-Adviser in writing that it is no longer permitted to provide services to the Fund from an Authorized Jurisdiction, such jurisdiction shall cease to be an Authorized Jurisdiction and the Sub-Adviser shall promptly cease providing services to the Fund from such jurisdiction. With respect to any services provided by the Sub-Adviser from an Authorized Jurisdiction, the Sub-Adviser shall ensure that none of its portfolio managers, traders or other employees, agents or representatives conduct their activities on behalf of the Fund in a manner that would create in such jurisdiction a permanent establishment or other taxable presence for the Fund or its investors.

2. Fund Transactions. (a) In connection with purchases and sales of portfolio securities and other instruments for the account of the Fund, neither the Sub-Adviser nor its affiliated persons (as defined in the 0000 Xxx) or any of their respective partners, officers or employees shall act as principal, except as otherwise permitted by the 1940 Act. The Sub-Adviser or its agents shall arrange for the placing of orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other instruments for the Fund’s account either directly with the issuer or with any broker or dealer, foreign currency dealer, futures commission merchant or other party selected by the Sub-Adviser (each of the foregoing, a “Transaction Party”), provided that the Sub-Adviser complies with the Counterparty Terms described in Section 1(c) with respect to each such Transaction Party.

(b) In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders the Sub-Adviser is directed at all times to seek for the Fund the most favorable execution and net price available. It is also understood that it may be desirable for the Fund that the Sub-Adviser have access to supplemental investment and market research and security and economic analyses that are consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and are provided by brokers who

may execute brokerage transactions at a higher cost to the Fund than may result when allocating brokerage to other brokers on the basis of seeking the most favorable price and efficient execution. Therefore, subject to compliance with the safe harbor provided by Section 28(e) of the 1934 Act and such other conditions and limitations as may be established by the Investment Manager from time to time, if any, the Sub-Adviser is authorized to consider such services provided to the Fund and other accounts over which the Sub-Adviser or any of its affiliates exercises investment discretion and to place orders for the purchase and sale of securities for the Fund with such brokers, if the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that the amount of commissions for executing such portfolio transactions is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such brokers, subject to review by the Investment Manager and the Board from time to time with respect to the extent and continuation of this practice. It is understood that the services provided by such brokers may be useful to the Sub-Adviser in connection with its services to other clients. The Sub-Adviser may, on occasions when it deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interests of the Fund as well as its other clients, aggregate, to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations, the securities to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the best net price and the most favorable execution. In such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, shall be made by the Sub-Adviser in the manner it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its obligations to the Fund and to such other clients. The Board may from time to time adopt policies and procedures that modify and/or restrict the Sub-Adviser’s authority regarding the execution of the Fund’s portfolio transactions provided herein.

(c) The Sub-Adviser shall not acquire on behalf of the Fund any equity securities registered under Section 12 of the 1934 Act with the purpose or effect, at the time of such acquisition, of changing or influencing control of the issuer of the securities or in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having such purpose or effect, including any transaction subject to Rule 13d-3(b) promulgated under the 1934 Act. The Sub-Adviser further agrees that it will prepare and cause to be filed in a timely manner (i) if required, quarterly information on Form 13F, which shall include all applicable securities within the Allocated Assets (it being understood that the Sub-Adviser shall consider such securities as being subject to its investment discretion for purposes of Section 13(f) of the 1934 Act), and (ii) if required, periodic information on Schedule 13G, reporting such securities as being beneficially owned by the Sub-Adviser for purposes of Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act. If any investments made by the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the Fund are required to be disclosed in any other reports to be filed by the Sub-Adviser with any governmental or self-regulatory agency or organization or exchange, the Sub-Adviser shall provide the Investment Manager with prompt written notice thereof, setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of the report and the investments of the Fund to be reported.

3. Compensation of the Sub-Adviser. (a) For all services to be rendered and payments made as provided in this Agreement, the Investment Manager shall pay the Sub-Adviser, in arrears, each calendar quarter a fee at an annual rate equal to the percentage of the average daily net Allocated Assets, set forth with respect to the Fund on Annex A. The “average daily net Allocated Assets” shall be determined on the basis set forth in the Fund’s prospectus(es) or otherwise consistent with the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(b) The fee for any calendar quarter during which this Agreement is in effect for less than the entire quarter shall be pro-rated based on the number of calendar days during such quarter that the Agreement was in effect.

(c) If, at any time, (i) the Sub-Adviser or any of its affiliates provides to any other investment company registered under the 1940 Act investment advisory services using investment strategies comparable to those provided by the Sub-Adviser to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the value of the assets under management with respect to which the Sub-Adviser provides such services to such other

investment company is comparable to or less than the value of the Allocated Assets, and (iii) the Sub-Adviser is compensated for providing such services at a rate less than the rate set forth on Annex A, then the Sub-Adviser shall promptly notify the Investment Manager of the foregoing in reasonable detail and, as of the date of such notice, the rate set forth on Annex A shall immediately and without requirement of further action be deemed amended to reflect a rate equal to the lower rate at which the Sub-Adviser is compensated by such other investment company.

4. Expenses. The Sub-Adviser agrees, at its own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement. The Fund shall be responsible for payment of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, registration costs, transaction-related taxes and other similar costs and transaction-related expenses and fees arising out of transactions effected on behalf of the Fund, which shall be deducted from the Allocated Assets. Subject to the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser will pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement, including without limitation, all costs associated with attending or otherwise participating in regular or special meetings of the Board or shareholders, or with the Investment Manager, as requested, and additions or modifications to the Sub-Adviser’s operations necessary to perform its services hereunder in compliance with this Agreement, the Investment Guidelines, any other Board/Investment Manager Procedures and applicable law. The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for all costs associated with any information statements and/or other disclosure materials that are for the primary benefit of the Sub-Adviser (including, but not limited to, the legal fees associated with preparation, printing, filing and mailing thereof, as well as any shareholder meeting and/or solicitation costs, if applicable).

5. Delivery of Information, Reports and Certain Notifications. (a) The Investment Manager shall cause the Sub-Adviser to be kept informed with regard to the funds available, or to become available, for investment. The Investment Manager agrees to furnish to the Sub-Adviser current prospectuses, statements of additional information, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, financial statements, Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and By-Laws and such other information with regard to the affairs of the Fund as the Sub-Adviser may reasonably request.

(b) The Sub-Adviser shall report regularly on a timely basis to the Investment Manager and to the Board and shall make appropriate persons, including portfolio managers, available for the purpose of reviewing with representatives of the Investment Manager and the Board on a regular basis at reasonable times the management of the Allocated Assets, the performance of the Allocated Assets in relation to standard industry indices and the Fund’s own performance benchmark, and general conditions affecting the marketplace. The Sub-Adviser agrees to render to the Investment Manager such other periodic and special reports on a timely basis regarding its activities under this Agreement as the Investment Manager may reasonably request.

(c) The Sub-Adviser shall provide the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Board with such information and assurances (including certifications and sub-certifications) and with such assistance as the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Board may reasonably request from time to time in order to assist it in complying with applicable laws, rules, regulations and exemptive orders, including requirements in connection with the Investment Manager’s, the Sub-Adviser’s or the Board’s fulfillment of its responsibilities under Section 15(c) of the 1940 Act and the preparation and/or filing of periodic and other reports and filings required to maintain the registration and qualification of the Fund, or to meet other regulatory or tax requirements applicable to the Fund, under federal and state securities, commodities and tax laws and other applicable laws. The Sub-Adviser shall review draft reports to shareholders, registration statements or amendments thereto or portions thereof that relate to the Fund or the Sub-Adviser and other documents provided to the Sub-Adviser, provide comments on such drafts on a timely basis, and provide certifications or sub-certifications on a timely basis as to the accuracy of the information provided by the Sub-Adviser and/or contained in such reports or other documents.

(d) The Sub-Adviser agrees to provide and update no less frequently than quarterly a list of all the affiliates of the Sub-Adviser, and to promptly notify the Investment Manager and the Fund of any change of control of those affiliates.

(e) If required by the CEA or the rules and regulations thereunder promulgated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), the Sub-Adviser will provide the Fund with a copy of its most recent CFTC disclosure document or a written explanation of the reason why it is not required to deliver such a disclosure document.

6. Cooperation with the Fund, the Investment Manager and Other Service Providers. (a) The Sub-Adviser agrees to cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the Investment Manager, the Fund, the Fund’s custodian, accounting agent, administrator, pricing agents, independent auditors and all other agents, representatives and service providers of the Fund and the Investment Manager, and to provide the foregoing persons such information with respect to the Allocated Assets as they may reasonably request from time to time in the performance of their obligations; provide prompt responses to reasonable requests made by such persons; and establish and maintain appropriate operational programs, procedures and interfaces with such persons so as to promote the efficient exchange of information and compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, and the guidelines, policies and procedures adopted or implemented with respect to the Fund and/or the Sub-Adviser.

(b) The Fund’s assets (including the Allocated Assets) shall be held by a custodian appointed by the Fund pursuant to a separate custody agreement; the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates shall at no time have custody or physical control of any assets or cash of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser shall advise the Fund’s custodian and accounting agent on a prompt basis of each purchase and sale of a portfolio security or other financial instrument specifying the name of the issuer or Counterparty, the description, terms and amount of shares or principal amount of the security or other financial instrument purchased or sold, the market price, commission and gross or net price, trade date, settlement date and identity of the effecting broker or dealer and such other information as may reasonably be required.

(d) The Sub-Adviser shall reconcile all trades with each executing broker and Counterparty daily to ensure accurate trade settlement and verify open positions (including cash). The Fund or its designee may also conduct a reconciliation of trades as reported from executing brokers and Counterparties and the Sub-Adviser shall cooperate with the Fund or such designee in order to effect such reconciliation, including without limitation by arranging for access by the Fund or such designee to the files and websites of the executing brokers and Counterparties. In addition, the Sub-Adviser shall promptly review each holdings reconciliation report that it receives from the Fund’s custodian and accounting agent and/or the Investment Manager, as appropriate, and shall work to resolve all open reconciliation items, including trade breaks, contained in such report immediately.

(e) The Sub-Adviser shall provide assistance to the Board, the Investment Manager, the custodian or administrator for the Fund in determining or confirming, consistent with the Board/Investment Manager Procedures and the Registration Statement, the value of any portfolio securities or other assets or liabilities of the Allocated Assets for which the Investment Manager, custodian or administrator seeks assistance from the Sub-Adviser or identifies for review by the Sub-Adviser. This assistance includes (but is not limited to): (i) designating and providing access to one or more employees of the Sub-Adviser who are knowledgeable about the security or other asset or liability, its issuer or counterparty (as applicable), its financial condition, trading and/or other relevant factors for valuation, which employees shall be available for consultation when the Board or a designated committee thereof convenes; (ii) assisting the Board, Investment Manager, the custodian or the administrator in obtaining bids and offers or quotes from broker-dealers or market-makers with respect to investments held in the Allocated Assets, upon the reasonable request of the Investment Manager, custodian or administrator; (iii) upon the request of the Board, Investment Manager, the custodian or the administrator, providing recommendations for pricing and fair valuations (including the methodology and rationale used in making such recommendation and such other relevant information as may be requested); and (v) maintaining adequate records and written backup information with respect to the investments valuation assistance provided hereunder, and providing such information to the Board, Investment Manager or the Fund upon request, with such records being deemed Fund records. The Sub-Adviser shall promptly notify the Investment Manager if, for any reason, the Sub-Adviser believes that the price of any security or other investment among the Allocated Assets may not accurately reflect the value thereof. In addition, the Sub-Adviser shall provide to the Investment Manager, on a timely basis after the end of each month, a report listing all securities and other instruments among the Allocated Assets for which the Sub-Adviser has made its own valuation determinations or has obtained valuation determinations made by others, which report shall include for each security or instrument the date on which a value was determined, the value determined, the source of the valuation, and the methodology and rationale used in making such determination. Additionally, the Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for obtaining valuations for derivative instruments from Counterparties and for providing that information (and any valuation determinations made by the Sub-Adviser) to the Investment Manager for its consideration on the monthly reports required under this Section 6(e).

(f) From time to time as the Board or the Investment Manager may reasonably request, the Sub-Adviser shall furnish to the Investment Manager, the Board and the officers of the Trust reports on portfolio transactions and reports on issuers of securities and other financial instruments, Counterparties and underlying reference terms of OTC Agreements and any other relevant information regarding any positions held in the portfolio, all in such detail as the Trust or the Investment Manager may reasonably request, including but not limited to, quarterly reports documenting the Sub-Adviser’s compliance with Sections 10(f), 17(a) and 17(e) of the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder, in its management of Fund assets, quarterly compliance checklists developed for the Fund by the Investment Manager, quarterly certifications under Rule 38a-1 of the 1940 Act and under Rule 206(4)-7 of the Advisers Act, annual reports under Rule 206(4)-7 of the Advisers Act and an annual due diligence questionnaire and, to the extent available, any external third party audit reports, including pursuant to Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE) No. 16.

(h) The Sub-Adviser shall further notify the Investment Manager promptly upon detection of any error in connection with its management of the Fund, including but not limited to any trade errors. In the event of an error, the Sub-Adviser shall provide a memorandum to the Investment Manager that sufficiently describes any such error and the action to be taken to prevent future occurrences of such error or, alternatively, a statement that the Sub-Adviser has reviewed the relevant controls, and has determined those controls are reasonably designed to prevent additional errors in the future (and, to the extent relevant, that such controls are reasonably designed to prevent violations of the federal securities laws), and as such no further action is required. Further, the Sub-Adviser shall provide access to the Investment Manager and the Fund, or their agents, to all documents and information related to any error, its analysis and correction, and the correction of all errors impacting the Fund must be corrected to the satisfaction of the Investment Manager and the Fund, which may include reimbursement to the Fund of costs incurred due to the error.

7. Compliance. (a) The Sub-Adviser shall notify the Investment Manager promptly (and, in any event, within 24 hours) upon detection of any breach of any of the Investment Guidelines, Board/Investment Manager Procedures and of any violation of any applicable law or regulation, including the 1940 Act and Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, relating to the Allocated Assets. The Sub-Adviser shall also notify the Investment Manager promptly upon detection of any violations of the Sub-Adviser’s own compliance policies and procedures that relate to (1) its management of the Fund, or (2) its activities as investment adviser generally to the extent such violation could be considered material to the Sub-Adviser’s advisory clients. In addition, the Sub-Adviser shall promptly provide the Investment Manager a memorandum of the type described in Section 6(f).

(b) The Sub-Adviser shall provide its compliance policies and procedures pertaining to the Sub-Adviser’s services provided to the Fund under this Agreement to the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer to permit the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer to conduct review and oversight of such policies and procedures in accordance with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act and shall promptly notify the Investment Manager of: (1) any material changes to its compliance policies and procedures; (2) any new policies and procedures that the Sub-Adviser adopts pursuant to Rule 206(4)-7 under the Advisers Act or otherwise as they pertain to activities performed for or on behalf of the Fund; and (3) the retirement of any policies and procedures previously adopted by the Sub-Adviser pursuant to Rule 206(4)-7 under the Advisers Act or otherwise as they pertained to activities performed for or on behalf of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser shall also prepare and provide to the Investment Manager and the Board summaries of its compliance policies and procedures that reflect the objective and key controls of each corresponding policy. The Fund, the Investment Manager, or the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer may make any reasonable request for the provision of information or for other cooperation from the Sub-Adviser with respect to the Sub-Adviser’s duties under this Agreement, and the Sub-Adviser shall use its best efforts to promptly comply with such request, including without limitation furnishing the Fund, the Investment Manager, or the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer with such documents, reports, data and other information as the Fund may reasonably request regarding transactions on behalf of the Fund, the Sub-Adviser’s performance hereunder or compliance with the terms hereof, and participating in such meetings (and on-site visits among representatives of the Fund and the Sub-Adviser) as the Fund may reasonably request. Further, the Sub-Adviser shall provide the Fund’s custodian with such documents, reports, data and other information as the Fund may reasonably request.

(c) The Sub-Adviser has adopted a written code of ethics complying with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and Section 204A of the Advisers Act and has provided the Fund with a copy of the code of ethics and evidence of its adoption, and will notify the Sub-Adviser of any material changes to (including policies added to or deleted from) its code of ethics. Within forty-five (45) days of the end of the last calendar quarter of each year while this Agreement is in effect or upon the written request of the Fund, the Investment Manager, or the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, the president or a vice president or general partner or managing member or the equivalent of the Sub-Adviser shall certify to the Fund that the Sub-Adviser has complied with the requirement of Rule 17j-1 and Section 204A during the previous year and that there has been no violation of the Sub-Adviser’s code of ethics or, if such a violation has occurred, that appropriate action was taken in response to such violation. Upon the written request of the Fund, the Investment Manager, or the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, the Sub-Adviser shall permit the Fund, the Investment Manager, and their employees or agents to examine the reports required to be made to the Sub-Adviser by Rule 17j-1(d)(1).

(d) The Sub-Adviser has established and will keep in effect a “disaster recovery” preparedness plan that sets forth procedures for recovery of critical business functions at minimum operating levels and can be implemented within a 24 hour time period. The Sub-Adviser shall notify the Investment Manager, as soon as practicable by telephone, electronic mail or such other method of prompt communication as may be available under the circumstances, of the occurrence of any event requiring the Sub-Adviser to implement any procedures under such plan.

8. Insurance. The Sub-Adviser shall maintain errors and omissions insurance coverage and fidelity insurance coverage, each in such amounts as agreed upon from time to time by the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser, and from insurance providers that are in the business of regularly providing insurance coverage to investment advisers. In no event shall the Sub-Adviser’s errors and omissions insurance coverage be less than $1 million or the Sub-Adviser’s fidelity insurance coverage be less than $1 million. The Sub-Adviser shall provide prior written notice to the Investment Manager (i) of any material changes in its insurance policies or insurance coverage; or (ii) if any material claims will be made on its insurance policies. Furthermore, it shall upon request provide to the Investment Manager any information it may reasonably require concerning the amount of or scope of such insurance.

9. Status of the Sub-Adviser. (a) The Sub-Adviser shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Investment Manager or the Fund in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Investment Manager or the Fund.

(b) Subject to the limitations set forth in the immediately following paragraph of this Section 9, the Investment Manager represents that it and the Trust understand that the Sub-Adviser now acts, shall continue to act, or may act in the future as investment adviser or investment Sub-Adviser to fiduciary and other managed accounts, and that the Investment Manager and the Trust have no objection to the Sub-Adviser so acting, provided that such other relationships do not adversely impact the performance of the Sub-Adviser hereunder and the Sub-Adviser duly performs all obligations under this Agreement.

(c) The Investment Manager and the Trust understand that the Sub-Adviser may give advice and take action with respect to any of its other clients or for its own account which may differ from the timing or nature of action taken by the Sub-Adviser with respect to the Fund.
