WHEREAS, the Trust is an open-end investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), and is authorized to issue shares of common stock in separate series (each series, a "Fund," and, collectively, the "Funds") with each such series representing interests in a separate portfolio of securities and other assets;
WHEREAS, the Trust registered its shares of common stock (the "Shares") by filing a registration statement on Form N-lA (the "registration statement") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to the 1940 Act and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act");
WHEREAS, Distributor is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"); and
WHEREAS, the Trust and Distributor entered into the Distribution Agreement dated August 30, 2011 pursuant to which Distributor is the distributor of the Shares of the Funds listed on Schedule A thereto and any additional Shares and/or investment portfolios the Trust and Distributor may agree upon and include on Schedule A, as such schedule may be amended from time to time; and
WHEREAS, the Distribution Agreement is hereby amended and restated to establish a new effective date of the Agreement and provide for the subsequent change to the Agreement term.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, do hereby agree as follows:
1. | Appointment of the Distributor. |
The Trust hereby appoints Distributor as agent for the distribution of the Shares, on the terms and for the period set forth in this Agreement. Distributor hereby accepts such appointment as agent for the distribution of the Shares on the terms and for the period set forth in this Agreement.
2. | Services and Duties of the Distributor. |

2.2 At the direction of the Trust, Distributor may enter into servicing and/or selling agreements with qualified broker/dealers and other persons with respect to the offering of the Shares to the public. Distributor shall not be obligated to incur any specific expenses (other than the expenses Distributor believes are commercially reasonable in connection with Distributor's provision of services under the terms of this Agreement) nor sell any certain number of the Shares of any Fund.
2.3 All Shares of the Funds offered for sale by Distributor shall be offered for sale to the public at a price per share equal to their net asset value (the "offering price"), as determined in the manner set forth in each Fund's Prospectus then in effect (together with each Fund's Statement of Additional Information, the "Prospectus"). Distributor shall have no liability for the payment of the purchase price of the Shares sold pursuant to this Agreement or with respect to redemptions or repurchases of the Shares.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Distributor shall not be required to finance the payment to any dealer or other organization of any sales charges or fees.
2.4 If any Shares sold by a Fund are redeemed or repurchased by the Fund, or by Distributor as agent, or are tendered for redemption, within seven business days after the date of confirmation of the original purchase of said Shares, Distributor shall forfeit the amount above the net asset value received by Distributor in respect of such Shares, provided that the portion, if any, of such amount re-allowed by Distributor to broker/dealers or other persons shall be repayable to the Fund only to the extent recovered by Distributor from the broker/dealer or other person concerned. Distributor shall include in the forms of agreement with such broker/dealers and other persons a corresponding provision for the forfeiture by them of their concession with respect to the Shares sold by them or their principals and redeemed or repurchased by a Fund or by Distributor as agent (or tendered for redemption) within seven business days after the date of confirmation of such initial purchases.

The Trust agrees to incorporate reasonable changes to such materials as Distributor shall request. Distributor will file with FINRA, the Commission or any state securities commissioners, the materials as may be required. The Trust represents that it will not use or authorize the use of any advertising or sales material unless and until such materials have been approved and authorized for use by Distributor.

The Trust and Distributor shall mutually agree upon a reasonable turnaround time for such review.

In addition, the Trust shall furnish Distributor from time to time such information, documents and reports with respect to the Trust and the Shares as Distributor may reasonably request, and the Trust warrants that the statements contained in any such information shall be true and correct and fairly represent what they purport to represent.
3.5 The Trust represents to Distributor that all registration statements of the Trust and Prospectuses of the Funds, as well as amendments and supplements thereto, filed or to be filed with the Commission with respect to the Shares, have been and will be prepared in conformity with the requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. The Trust represents and warrants to Distributor that any registration statement and any Prospectuses, when such registration statement becomes effective, will contain all statements required to be stated therein in conformity with the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission; that all information contained in the registration statement and the Prospectuses will be true and correct in all material respects when such registration statement is effective; and that neither the registration statement nor any Prospectus, when such registration statement is effective will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. The Trust agrees to file from time to time such amendments, supplements, reports and other documents as may be necessary or required in order to comply with the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act and in order that there may be no untrue statement of a material fact in a registration statement or a Prospectus, or necessary or required in order that there may be no omission to state a material fact in the registration statement or a Prospectus, which omission would make the statements therein misleading. The Trust shall promptly notify Distributor of any advice given to it by counsel to the Trust regarding the necessity or advisability of amending or supplementing the registration statement.
4
3.6 The Trust shall not file any amendment to the registration statement or supplement to the Prospectus without giving Distributor reasonable notice thereof in advance and if Distributor declines to assent to such amendment (after a reasonable time), the Trust may terminate this Agreement forthwith by written notice to Distributor without payment of any penalty. If the Trust shall not propose an amendment or amendments and/or supplement or supplements promptly after receipt by the Trust of a written request in good faith from Distributor to do so, Distributor may, at its option, immediately terminate this Agreement. In addition, if, at any time during the term of this Agreement, Distributor requests the Trust to make any change in its governing instruments or in its methods of doing business which are necessary in order to comply with any requirement of applicable law or regulation, and the Trust fails (after a reasonable time) to make any such change as requested, Distributor may terminate this Agreement forthwith by written notice to the Trust without payment of any penalty. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall in any way limit the Trust's right to file at any time any amendments to any registration statement and/or supplements to the Prospectus, of whatever character, as the Trust may deem advisable, with advice of its counsel, such right being in all respects absolute and unconditional.
3.7 Whenever, in its judgment, such action is warranted by market, economic or political conditions, or by circumstances of any kind, the Trust may decline to accept any orders for, or make any sales of, any Shares until such time as it deems advisable to accept such orders and to make such sales and the Trust shall advise Distributor promptly of such determination.
3.8 The Trust agrees to advise Distributor promptly in writing:
(i) of any correspondence or other communication by the Commission or its staff relating to the Funds, including requests by the Commission for amendments to the Trust's registration statement or the Prospectus;
(ii) in the event of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the registration statement or the Prospectus then in effect or the initiation of any proceeding for that purpose;
(iii) of the happening of any event which makes untrue any statement of a material fact made in the registration statement or the Prospectus or which requires the making of a change in such registration statement or the Prospectuses in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and
(iv) of all actions taken by the Commission with respect to any amendments to any registration statement or the Prospectus which may from time to time be filed with the Commission.
