Exhibit A
Appendix A
Foreside Compensation
Effective: March 1, 2013
(1) Compliance Services
Recurring Fees One-time |
Per Annum | |
Fee for services of the Fund Company’s CCO* |
$110,000 for Fund Company, plus $7,500 per Fund, calculated and billed monthly. |
Note: It is acknowledged that the recurring fee does not provide for unlimited access to the services of the Fund CCO and, in the case of regulatory examinations of the Fund Company that will require an extraordinary level of involvement by the Fund CCO, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith regarding fair compensation to Foreside for such additional services. For such purposes, the Fund Company agrees that $200/hour represents a fair assessment of the value of the Fund CCO’s services.
(2) AML Services
Recurring Fees One-time |
Per Annum | |
Fee for services of the Fund Company’s AML Officer |
$10,000, calculated and billed monthly. |
(3) Once each calendar year, the parties hereto shall review the fees payable hereunder and shall negotiate in good faith to determine whether any amendment to the fees is appropriate in light of the circumstances at that time, if it is determined that an amendment to the fees is appropriate, the parties shall amend the fee schedule as appropriate to reflect such amendment.
(4) Out-Of-Pocket and Related Expenses: The Fund Company shall also reimburse Foreside for reasonable out-of-pocket and ancillary expenses incurred in the provision of services pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to the following:
(i) | reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with the provision of the services pursuant to this Agreement; |
(ii) | reasonable travel expenses incurred in connection with travel requested by the Board; and |
(iii) | any other expenses incurred in connection with the provision of the services pursuant to this Agreement. |
