(C)   Other Terms and Conditions Related to the Officer.

(i) Individuals that Service Provider makes available as Officers need not be employees or agents of Service Provider and may be independent contractors or employees or agents of a third party.

(ii) If Service Provider can no longer secure the services of, or has decided to sever its relationship with, an individual that is currently serving as an Officer, the Client may secure such service directly in any manner deemed appropriate by the Client.  If this does not occur, Service Provider’s only obligation shall be to use reasonable efforts to make another individual available to serve in the same capacity as such an Officer.

(iii) In connection with Service Provider’s obligation to make an individual available to serve as an Officer, Service Provider shall pay a level of total compensation to such person that is consistent with Service Provider’s compensation of employees having similar duties, similar seniority, and working at the same or similar geographical location, and Service Provider shall not be required to pay compensation in any greater amount.

(iv) If any employee of Service Provider acts as an Officer of the Client, any such relationship shall be subject to the internal policies of Service Provider concerning the activities of its employees and their service as officers of funds; if such policies prohibit any such employee from acting as an Officer of the Client, Service Provider’s only obligations shall be to provide reasonable advance notice of any change to its policies which would prohibit is employees from serving as Officer, in order to enable an orderly transition, and to use reasonable efforts to make a non-employee available to serve in the same capacity as such an Officer.

(G)   Indemnification of Officers; Insurance.  The Client’s Organic Documents and/or resolutions of its Board shall contain mandatory indemnification provisions that are applicable to all Officers made available by Service Provider, that are designed and intended to have the effect of fully indemnifying such officers and holding each harmless with respect to any claims, liabilities and costs arising out of or relating to such Officer’s service in good faith in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Client, except to the extent such Officer would otherwise be liable to the Client or to its security holders by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of office.  In addition, the Client shall secure insurance coverage from a reputable insurance company for all Officers under a directors and officers liability policy that is consistent with standards in the mutual fund industry taking into account the size of the Client and each series thereof (each, a “Fund”) and the nature of their investment portfolio and other relevant factors.

(H)   Resignation of Officers.  Any Officer may resign for any reason.  Service Provider may terminate this Agreement for cause pursuant to Section 7(B)(ii), and shall have no obligation to endeavor to make available another individual to act as an Officer, if
