The Trading Advisor shall trade the Trading Company’s assets on the basis of the Trading Level.
2. The first sentence of Section 5(a)(i) shall be deleted and replaced by the following:
The Trading Company shall pay the Trading Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.5% (a 1.5% annual rate) of the Assets (as defined in Section 2(a) hereof) of the Trading Company allocated to the Trading Advisor as of the first day of each month (the “Management Fee”).
