The services provided by the Adviser or any such sub-adviser shall include: (i) furnishing continuously an investment program for each Fund; (ii) managing the investment and reinvestment of Fund assets; (iii) determining which investments shall be purchased, held, sold or exchanged for each Fund and what portion, if any, of the assets of each Fund shall be held uninvested; (iv) making changes on behalf of the Trust in the investments for each Fund; (v) providing the Trust with records concerning the activities that the Trust is required to maintain; and (vi) rendering reports to the Trust’s officers and Board of Trustees concerning the Adviser’s discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. In addition, the Adviser will arrange for other necessary services, including custodial, transfer agency and administration. The Adviser shall furnish to the Trust all office facilities, equipment, services and executive and administrative personnel necessary for managing the investment program of the Trust for each Fund. The Adviser may enter into arrangements with its parent or other persons affiliated or unaffiliated with the Adviser for the provision of certain personnel and facilities to the Adviser to enable the Adviser to fulfill its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

(b) The Adviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the supervision and control of the Board of Trustees of the Trust and in compliance with such policies as the Trustees may from time to time establish, each Fund’s investment objective and policies as set forth in the then current prospectus and statement of additional information for such Fund contained in the Trust’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A, as amended or supplemented from time to time, the Trust’s compliance manual, as in effect from time to time, and applicable laws and regulations.

Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31 a-2 under the 1940 Act that are prepared or maintained by the Adviser (or any investment sub-adviser) on behalf of the Trust are the property of the Trust and will be surrendered promptly to the Trust at its request (the “Records”). The Adviser agrees to preserve the Records for the periods prescribed in Rule 3la-2 under the 1940 Act. The Trust and the Adviser agree to furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, certified copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to their affairs as each may reasonably request. The Adviser shall keep confidential any information obtained in connection with its duties hereunder and disclose such information only if the Trust has authorized such disclosure or if such disclosure is expressly required or lawfully requested by applicable federal or state regulatory authorities.

4. Advisory Fees/Allocation of Expenses

(a) For the services to be provided by the Adviser hereunder with respect to each Fund, the Trust shall pay to the Adviser a fee at the rate set forth on Schedule A attached hereto.

All fees payable hereunder shall be accrued daily and paid as soon as practical after the last day of each month.

In any case of commencement or termination of this Agreement with respect to any Fund during any calendar month, the fee with respect to such Fund for that month shall be reduced proportionately based upon the number of calendar days during which it is in effect, and the fee shall be computed upon the average daily net assets of such Fund for the days during which it is in effect.

(b) The Adviser agrees to pay all expenses of the Trust, except for: (i) brokerage expenses and other fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses (such as stamp taxes) incurred in connection with the execution of portfolio transactions or in connection with creation and redemption transactions (including without limitation any fees, charges, taxes, levies or expenses related to the purchase or sale of an amount of any currency, or the patriation or repatriation of any security or other asset, related to the execution of portfolio transactions or any creation or redemption transactions); (ii) legal fees or expenses in connection with any arbitration, litigation or pending or threatened arbitration or litigation, including any settlements in connection therewith; (iii) compensation and expenses of the Trustees of the Trust who are not officers, directors/trustees, partners or employees of the Adviser or its affiliates (the “Independent Trustees”); (iv) compensation and expenses of counsel to the Independent Trustees, (v) compensation and expenses of the Trust’s chief compliance officer; (vi) extraordinary expenses (in each case as determined by a majority of the Independent Trustees); (vii) distribution fees and expenses paid by the Trust under any distribution plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-l under the 1940 Act; (viii) interest and taxes of any kind or nature (including, but not limited to, income, excise, transfer and withholding taxes); (ix) fees and expense related to the provision of securities lending services; and (x) the advisory fee payable to the Adviser hereunder. The internal expenses of pooled investment vehicles in which a Fund may invest (acquired fund fees and expenses) are not expenses of the Trust and are not paid by the Adviser. The payment or assumption by the Adviser of any expense of the Trust that the Adviser is not required by this Agreement to pay or assume shall not obligate the Adviser to pay or assume the same or any similar expense of the Trust on any subsequent occasion.
