TRANSFER AGENCY AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

Exhibit H.1

TRANSFER AGENCY AND SERVICES AGREEMENT

THIS AGREEMENT, between The Xxxxxxxx & Orkin Funds, Inc., organized as a corporation under the laws of Maryland (the “Fund”), and ALPS Fund Services, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“ALPS”) is made as of August 21, 2009 and effective as of the date of conversion of the Fund to ALPS.

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), as an open-end, registered investment company, presently consisting of the portfolios listed in Appendix A;

WHEREAS, ALPS provides certain transfer agency services to investment companies; and

WHEREAS, the Fund desires to appoint ALPS as its transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent and agent in connection with certain other activities, and ALPS desires to accept such appointment.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows.

ALPS Appointment and Duties.

(a) The Fund hereby appoints ALPS to provide the transfer agent and other specified services set forth in Appendix B hereto, as amended from time to time, upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. ALPS hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to furnish such specified services. ALPS shall for all purposes be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, except as otherwise expressly authorized in this Agreement, have no authority to act for or represent the Fund in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Fund.

(b) ALPS may employ or engage such persons or organizations as ALPS believes to be desirable to assist ALPS in the performance of its duties hereunder; provided that, in such event, the compensation of such persons or organizations shall be paid by and be the sole responsibility of ALPS, and the Fund shall bear no cost or obligation with respect thereto; and provided further that ALPS shall not be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement in such event and shall be responsible for all acts of any such persons or organizations taken in furtherance of this Agreement to the same extent it would be for its own acts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, ALPS may not employ or engage persons or organizations for assistance in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder if such employment or engagement would effectively cause such services to not be performed by ALPS.

ALPS Compensation; Expenses.

(a) In consideration for the services to be performed hereunder by ALPS, the Fund shall pay ALPS the fees listed in Appendix C hereto. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, fees billed for the services to be performed by ALPS under this Agreement are based on information provided by the Fund and the manner in which the Fund has historically operated as indicated by its public filings and such fees are subject to renegotiation between the parties to the extent changes in the Fund’s operations take place that cause such information to be materially different, as agreed to by the Fund and ALPS, from what the Fund originally provided to ALPS and disclosed in its public filings.

(b) ALPS will bear all expenses in connection with the performance of its services under this Agreement, except as otherwise provided herein. ALPS will not bear any of the costs of Fund personnel. Other Fund expenses incurred shall be borne by the Fund or the Fund’s investment adviser, including, but not limited to, initial organization and offering expenses; litigation expenses; taxes; costs of preferred shares; expenses of conducting repurchase offers for the purpose of repurchasing Fund shares; administrative and accounting expenses; custodial expenses; interest; Fund directors’ fees; brokerage fees and commissions; state and federal registration fees; advisory fees; insurance premiums; fidelity bond premiums; fees and expenses of Fund counsel; costs of maintenance of Fund existence; printing and delivery of materials in connection with meetings of the Fund’s directors; printing and mailing of shareholder reports, prospectuses, statements of additional information, other offering documents, supplements, proxy materials, and other communications to shareholders; securities pricing data and expenses in connection with electronic filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Right to Receive Advice.

(a) Advice of the Fund and Service Providers. If ALPS is in doubt as to any action it should or should not take, ALPS may request directions, advice or instructions from the Fund or the Fund’s investment adviser or, as applicable, the Fund’s custodian or other service providers.

(b) Advice of Counsel. If ALPS is in doubt as to any question of law pertaining to any action it should or should not take, ALPS may request advice from counsel of its own choosing (who may be counsel for the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser, or ALPS, at the option of ALPS). If counsel other than Fund or investment adviser counsel is consulted by ALPS, the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be ALPS’ responsibility.

(c) Conflicting Advice. In the event of a conflict between directions, advice or instructions ALPS receives from the Fund or any authorized service provider on behalf of the Fund and the advice ALPS receives from counsel, the Fund and ALPS shall mutually agree upon the directions, advice or instructions to follow. Upon request, ALPS will provide the Fund with a copy of the advice of counsel received pursuant to Section 3(b).

Standard of Care; Limitation of Liability; Indemnification.

(a) ALPS shall be obligated to act in good faith and to exercise commercially reasonable care and diligence in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, including with regard to the processing of investments checks using mutually agreed upon procedures. The parties agree that any encoding or payment processing errors

shall be governed by this standard of care and Section 4-209 of the Uniform Commercial Code is superseded by this Section 4 of this Agreement.

(b) In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence, or reckless disregard by ALPS in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities set forth in this Agreement, ALPS and its affiliates, including their respective officers, directors, agents and employees, shall not be liable for, and the Fund agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless such persons from, all taxes, charges, expenses, disbursements, assessments, claims, losses, damages, penalties, actions, suits, judgments and liabilities (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements and liabilities arising under applicable federal and state laws) arising directly or indirectly from the following:

(i) the inaccuracy of factual information furnished to ALPS by the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser or custodian or any authorized third party on behalf of the Fund;

(ii) any reasonable error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates;

(iii) ALPS’ reliance on any instruction, direction, notice, instrument or other information provided by the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser or custodian or any authorized third party on behalf of the Fund that ALPS reasonably believes to be genuine;

(iv) failure to satisfy requests to cancel or amend payment orders, if ALPS receives such requests without reasonable time to comply with such requests;

(v) failure to detect any erroneous payment order, provided that ALPS complies with the payment order instructions as received and with the Security Procedure (as defined below);

(vi) lost interest with respect to the refundable amount of an unauthorized payment order, unless ALPS is notified of the unauthorized payment order within 30 days of notification by ALPS of the acceptance of such payment order; or

(vii) any other action or omission to act which ALPS properly takes in connection with the provision of services to the Fund pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) ALPS shall indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees from and against any and all taxes, charges, expenses, disbursements, assessments, claims, losses, damages, penalties, actions, suits, judgments and liabilities (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements and liabilities arising under applicable federal and state laws) arising directly or indirectly from ALPS’ willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities set forth in this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, neither party shall be liable under this Agreement to the other party hereto for any punitive, consequential, special or indirect losses or damages.

(e) In any case in which either party (the “Indemnifying Party”) may be asked to indemnify or hold the other party (the “Indemnified Party”) harmless, the Indemnified Party will notify the Indemnifying Party promptly after identifying any situation which it believes presents or appears likely to present a claim for indemnification against the Indemnifying Party although the failure to do so shall not prevent recovery by the Indemnified Party (except to the extent that the failure to so notify results in additional costs or damages or results in prejudice to the rights and defenses otherwise available to the Indemnifying Party) and shall keep the Indemnifying Party reasonably advised with respect to all developments concerning such situation. The Indemnifying Party shall have the option to defend the Indemnified Party against any claim which may be the subject of this indemnification, and, in the event that the Indemnifying Party so elects, such defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party and reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, and thereupon the Indemnifying Party shall take over defense of the claim and to the extent that thereafter the Indemnified Party shall sustain legal or other expenses in respect of such claim, they shall be the Indemnified Party’s sole responsibility. The Indemnified Party will not confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the Indemnifying Party will be asked to provide indemnification, except with the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

5. Force Majeure. No party shall be liable for losses, delays, failures, errors, interruptions or losses of data in its performance of its obligations under this Agreement if and to the extent it is caused, directly or indirectly, by reason of circumstances beyond their reasonable control, including without limitation, acts of God, action or inaction of civil or military authority, war, terrorism, riot, fire, flood, sabotage, labor disputes, elements of nature or non-performance by a third party. In any such event, the non-performing party shall be excused from any further performance and observance of obligations so affected only for so long as such circumstances prevail and such party continues to use commercially reasonable efforts to recommence performance or observance as soon as practicable.

6. Activities of ALPS. The services of ALPS under this Agreement are not to be deemed exclusive, and ALPS shall be free to render similar services to others. The Fund recognizes that from time to time directors, officers and employees of ALPS may serve as directors, officers and employees of other corporations or businesses (including other investment companies) and that such other corporations and businesses may include ALPS as part of their name and that ALPS or its affiliates may enter into administrative, bookkeeping, pricing agreements or other agreements with such other corporations and businesses.

7. Accounts and Records. The accounts and records maintained by ALPS shall be the property of the Fund. ALPS shall prepare, maintain and preserve such accounts and records as required by the 1940 Act and other applicable securities laws, rules and regulations. ALPS shall surrender such accounts and records to the Fund, in the form in which such accounts and records have been maintained or preserved, promptly upon receipt of instructions from the Fund. The Fund shall have access to such accounts and records at all times during ALPS’ normal business hours. Upon the reasonable request of the Fund, copies of any such books and records shall be provided promptly by ALPS to the Fund at the Fund’s expense. ALPS shall assist the Fund, the Fund’s independent auditors, or, upon approval of the Fund, any regulatory body, in any requested review of the Fund’s accounts and records, and reports by ALPS or its independent accountants concerning its accounting system and internal auditing controls will be

open to such entities for audit or inspection upon reasonable request. In the event ALPS receives a request or demand for the inspection of records relating specifically to the Fund, ALPS will promptly notify the Fund of such request in writing and obtain instructions from the Fund as to the handling of such request.

8. Confidential and Proprietary Information. In addition to any obligations imposed by Regulation S-P and other relevant rules and regulations, ALPS agrees that it will, on behalf of itself and its officers and employees, treat all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and all records and information relative to the Fund and its current and former shareholders and other information germane thereto, as confidential and as proprietary information of the Fund and not to use, sell, transfer, or divulge such information or records to any person for any purpose other than performance of its duties hereunder, except after prior notification to and approval in writing from the Fund, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Approval may not be withheld where ALPS may be exposed to civil, regulatory or criminal proceedings for failure to comply, when requested to divulge such information by duly constituted authorities, or when requested by the Fund. When requested to divulge such information by duly constituted authorities, ALPS shall immediately notify the Fund and use reasonable commercial efforts to request confidential treatment of such information. ALPS shall have in place and maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards reasonably designed to protect the security, confidentiality, and integrity of, and to prevent unauthorized access to or use of records and information relating to the Fund and its current and former shareholders.

9. Compliance with Rules and Regulations. ALPS shall comply (and to the extent ALPS takes or is required to take action on behalf of the Fund hereunder shall cause the Fund to comply) with all applicable requirements of the 1940 Act, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and other applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders and code of ethics, as well as all investment restrictions, policies and procedures adopted by the Fund of which ALPS has knowledge (it being understood that ALPS is deemed to have knowledge of all investment restrictions, policies or procedures set out in the Fund’s public filings or otherwise provided to ALPS). Except as set out in this Agreement, ALPS assumes no responsibility for such compliance by the Fund. ALPS shall maintain at all times a program reasonably designed to prevent violations of the federal securities laws (as defined in Rule 38a-1 under the 0000 Xxx) with respect to the services provided, and shall provide to the Fund a certification to such effect no less than annually or as otherwise reasonably requested by the Fund. ALPS shall make available its compliance personnel and shall provide at its own expense summaries and other relevant materials relating to such program as reasonably requested by the Fund.

10.

Wire Transfer Operating Guidelines/Article 4A of the Uniform Commercial Code

(a) Obligation of Sender. ALPS is authorized to promptly debit the appropriate Fund account(s) upon the receipt of a payment order in compliance with the selected security procedure attached as Appendix D hereto (the “Security Procedure”) and in the amount of money that ALPS has been instructed to transfer. ALPS shall execute payment orders in compliance with the Security Procedure and with the Fund instructions on the execution date provided that such payment order is received by the customary deadline for processing such a request, unless the payment order specifies a later time. All payment orders and communications received after the customary deadline will be deemed to have been received the next business day.

(b) Security Procedure. The Fund acknowledges that the Security Procedure it has designated on Appendix D, was selected by the Fund. The Fund must notify ALPS immediately of any change in the Fund’s authorized personnel. ALPS shall verify the authenticity of all Fund instructions according to the Security Procedure. ALPS is authorized to make exceptions to the Security Procedure if instructed by the Fund. For purposes of this Section 12 only, instructions received from representatives of the Fund’s investment adviser will be considered to be instructions from the Fund.

(c) Account Numbers. ALPS shall process all payment orders on the basis of the account number contained in the payment order. In the event of a discrepancy between any name indicated on the payment order and the account number, the account number shall take precedence and govern.

(d) Rejection. ALPS reserves the right to decline to process or delay the processing of a payment order (i) which is in excess of the collected balance in the account to be charged at the time of ALPS’ receipt of such payment order; (ii) if initiating such payment order would cause ALPS, in ALPS’ sole judgment, to exceed any volume, aggregate dollar, network, time, credit or similar limits which are applicable ALPS; or (iii) if ALPS, in good faith, is unable to satisfy itself that the transaction has been properly authorized.

(e) ACH Credit Entries/Provisional Payments. When the Fund initiates or receives Automated Clearing House credit and debit entries pursuant to these guidelines and the rules of the National Automated Clearing House Association and the New England Clearing House Association, ALPS will act as an Originating Depository Financial Institution and/or Receiving Depository Financial Institution, as the case may be, with respect to such entries. Credits given by ALPS with respect to an ACH credit entry are provisional until ALPS receives final settlement for such entry from the Federal Reserve Bank. If ALPS does not receive such final settlement, the Fund agrees that ALPS shall receive a refund of the amount credited to the Fund in connection with such entry, and the party making payment to the Fund via such entry shall not be deemed to have paid the amount of the entry.

(f) Confirmation. Confirmation of ALPS’ execution of payment orders shall ordinarily be provided within twenty four (24) hours notice of which may be delivered

through ALPS’ information systems, or by facsimile or call-back. The Fund must report any objections to the execution of an order within thirty (30) days.

13. Documents. The Fund has furnished or will furnish, upon request, ALPS with copies of the Fund’s Articles of Incorporation, advisory agreement, custodian agreement, transfer agency agreement, administration agreement, current prospectus, statement of additional information, periodic Fund reports, and all forms relating to any plan, program or service offered by the Fund. The Fund shall furnish, within a reasonable time period, to ALPS a copy of any amendment or supplement to any of the above-mentioned documents. Upon request, the Fund shall furnish promptly to ALPS any additional documents necessary or advisable to perform its functions hereunder. As used in this Agreement the terms “registration statement,” “prospectus” and “statement of additional information” shall mean any registration statement, prospectus and statement of additional information filed by the Fund with the SEC and any amendments and supplements thereto that are filed with the SEC.

14. Consultation Between the Parties. ALPS and the Fund shall regularly consult with each other regarding ALPS’ performance of its obligations under this Agreement. In connection therewith, the Fund shall submit to ALPS at a reasonable time in advance of filing with the SEC reasonably final copies of any amended or supplemented registration statement (including exhibits) under the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Agreement shall in any way limit the Fund’s right to file at any time such amendments to any registration statement and/or supplements to any prospectus or statement of additional information, of whatever character, as the Fund may deem advisable, such right being in all respects absolute and unconditional.

15. Business Interruption Plan. ALPS shall maintain in effect a business interruption plan, and enter into any agreements necessary with appropriate parties making reasonable provisions for emergency use of electronic data processing equipment customary in the industry. In the event of equipment failures, ALPS shall, at no additional expense to the Fund, take commercially reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions.

16. Customer Identification Program. To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires each financial institution to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account with that financial institution. Consistent with this requirement, ALPS will request each party’s name, address, taxpayer identification number or other government-issued identification number, and if such party is a natural person, that party’s date of birth. ALPS may also ask for additional identifying information, and ALPS may take steps to verify the authenticity and accuracy of these data elements.

17.

Duration and Termination of this Agreement.

(a) Initial Term. This Agreement shall become effective as of the effective date of the conversion of the Fund to ALPS (the “Start Date”) and shall continue thereafter throughout the period that ends three (3) years after the Start Date (the “Initial Term”). Until the end of the Initial Term, this Agreement may be terminated without penalty only by agreement of the parties or for cause pursuant to Section 17(c) hereof. All data conversion fees will be waived with a three (3) year Initial Term.

(b) Renewal Term. If not sooner terminated, this Agreement shall renew at the end of the Initial Term and shall thereafter continue for successive annual periods until terminated by either party upon not less than sixty (60) days’ written notice prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or the then current renewal term or for cause pursuant to Section 17(c) hereof.

(c) Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Fund may terminate this Agreement for cause immediately at any time, without penalty, without default and without the payment of any Termination Payment or other liquidated damages. For purposes of this Section 17, “cause” shall mean:

(i) willful misfeasance, bad faith, negligence or reckless disregard on the part of ALPS in the performance of its duties, obligations, and responsibilities set forth in this Agreement;

(ii) in the event ALPS is no longer permitted to perform its duties, obligations, or responsibilities hereunder pursuant to applicable law, or regulatory, administrative, or judicial proceedings against ALPS which result in a determination that ALPS has violated, or has caused the Fund to violate, in any material respect any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or code of ethics, or any material investment restriction, policy or procedure adopted by the Fund of which ALPS had knowledge (it being understood that ALPS is deemed to have knowledge of all investment restrictions, policies or procedures set out in the Fund’s public filings or otherwise provided to ALPS); or

(iii) financial difficulties on the part of ALPS that impair the ability of ALPS to perform its duties, obligations and responsibilities hereunder; or

(iv) in the event of a material breach by ALPS of its duties, obligations and responsibilities hereunder, which breach, if curable, is not cured within ten (10) days of the Fund’s notification of such breach, or sooner if so required by applicable law.

(d) Deliveries Upon Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, ALPS agrees to cooperate in the orderly transfer of transfer agency duties and shall deliver to the Fund or as otherwise directed by the Fund (in the case of termination by the Fund, at the expense of the Fund) all records and other documents made or accumulated in the performance of its duties for the Fund hereunder. In the event ALPS gives notice of termination under this Agreement, it will continue to provide the services contemplated hereunder after such termination at the contractual rate for up to 180 days, provided that the Fund uses all reasonable commercial efforts to appoint such replacement on a timely basis. In no event will ALPS be required to assist any new service or system provider in modifying or altering the ALPS’ or the new agent’s system or software, but shall offer reasonable assistance in converting the records of the Fund from ALPS systems to whatever services or systems are selected by the Fund.

18. Assignment. This Agreement shall extend to and shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided, however, that this Agreement shall not be assignable by the Fund without the prior written consent of ALPS, or by ALPS without the prior written consent of the Fund.

19. Governing Law. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado and the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder. To the extent that the laws of the State of Colorado conflict with the 1940 Act or such rules, the latter shall control.

20. Names. The obligations of the Fund entered into in the name or on behalf thereof by any director, shareholder, representative, or agent thereof are made not individually, but in such capacities, and are not binding upon any of the directors, shareholders, representatives or agents of the Fund personally, but bind only the property of the Fund, and all persons dealing with the Fund must look solely to the property of the Fund for the enforcement of any claims against the Fund.

21. Amendments to this Agreement. This Agreement may only be amended by the parties in writing.
