APPENDIX A

Net Asset Value Error Correction Policy and Procedures

1.	As used in this Agreement and the Schedules and Appendices to this Agreement, the following terms have the meaning hereinafter stated:

“NAV Error” is defined as one or more errors in the computation of net asset value which, when considered cumulatively, result in a difference between the originally computed NAV and the corrected NAV of at least $0.010 per share. This computation is based upon the actual difference and is not based upon the rounding of the NAV to the nearest cent per share.

“Per Share NAV Error” is the difference between the originally computed per share NAV, and the amount that would have been computed had the errors not occurred.

“NAV Error Period” comprises those days during which a NAV Error existed.

“Fund Loss” refers to a situation where a Fund has either paid excessive redemption proceeds as a result of an overstatement of the NAV or received insufficient subscription proceeds as a result of an understatement of the NAV. When such a Fund Loss occurs, the individual Shareholders effecting transactions received a corresponding benefit (a “Shareholder Benefit”).

“Fund Benefit” means a situation where a Fund has either paid insufficient redemption proceeds as a result of an understatement of NAV or received excessive subscription proceeds as a result of an overstatement of NAV. When such a Fund Benefit occurs, the individual Shareholders effecting transactions suffer a corresponding loss (a “Shareholder Loss”).

The term “responsible person” means a person who, by virtue of negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct, caused or contributed to an NAV Error.

2.	The following Procedures will be utilized by X.X. Xxxxxx with respect to NAV Error corrections:

(a)

If the error in the computation of the net asset value is less than $0.010 per share, no action shall be taken.

(b)

If a Per Share NAV Error is less than one half of one percent of the originally computed Per Share NAV, X.X. Xxxxxx, on behalf of the Funds, will determine whether total Fund Losses exceeded total Fund Benefits for the NAV Error Period. If the Fund incurred a net loss, the Customer will be responsible for obtaining reimbursement for such loss from the responsible person or persons. If the Fund had a net benefit, no action need be taken; however, such net benefit should not be carried forward to any analyses performed in the future for other NAV Errors that may arise.

(c)

If the Per Share NAV Error equals or exceeds one half of one percent of the originally computed per share NAV, 1) account adjustments should be made to compensate Shareholders for Shareholder Losses, and 2) the Customer will be responsible for obtaining reimbursement for such loss from the responsible person or persons for Fund Losses.

(i)

With respect to individual Shareholder Losses, the Customer will be responsible for causing the Fund (or responsible party) to pay to individual Shareholders any additional redemption proceeds owed and either refund excess subscription monies paid or credit the Shareholder

account as of the date of the NAV Error, for additional shares. Nevertheless, no correction of a given individual Shareholder account shall be made unless the applicable Shareholder Loss for such Shareholder equals or exceeds a de minimis amount of $25.

(ii)

With respect to Fund Losses, the Customer will be responsible for causing either the responsible person or persons or the individual Shareholders to reimburse the Fund for the amount of the Fund’s Losses. (Note that there is no netting of Fund Losses (as described in (c)(i) above) where the error equals or exceeds ¹⁄₂ of 1% of NAV, to the extent benefits were paid out by the Fund to Shareholders as account adjustments).

(d)

In the case of an error that fluctuates above and below one half of one percent, individual Shareholder adjustments should be effected for those days where the NAV Error was equal to or exceeded one half of one percent. With respect to the remaining days, the Fund level process described above in Section 2(b) may be applied.

(e)

If there is a subsequent discovery of an error which affects a NAV Error Period that had previously been corrected in the manner described above, the subsequently discovered NAV Error should be analyzed in isolation without taking into consideration the previously corrected NAV Errors.

(f)

In cases where a NAV Error has occurred, the Customer, upon X.X. Xxxxxx’x request, will instruct the Transfer Agent to reprocess transactions and to adjust each Shareholder’s Shares upwards or downwards accordingly, at the expense of the responsible person or persons. If the Transfer Agent does not agree to reprocess transactions resulting from a NAV Error for which X.X. Xxxxxx is a responsible person, X.X. Xxxxxx’x liability will be limited to the amount it would have been liable for had the reprocessing occurred.

(g)

In cases where X.X. Xxxxxx is not the responsible person with regard to an NAV Error, X.X. Xxxxxx shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for the work it performs with respect to the remediation of the NAV Error.

(h)

In cases where X.X. Xxxxxx is a responsible person with regard to an NAV Error, but not the sole responsible person, the Fund, to the extent customary under industry practice, shall seek recovery from each such responsible person, for its proportional share of the applicable Fund Loss or Shareholder Loss.
