WHEREAS, the Trust is an investment company regulated by Federal and State regulatory bodies, and

WHEREAS, the Distributor is engaged in the business of promoting the distribution of the securities of investment companies and, in connection therewith and acting solely as agent for such investment companies and not as principal, advertising, promoting, offering and selling their securities to the public, and

WHEREAS, the Trust desires to enter into an agreement with the Distributor as of the date hereof, pursuant to which the Distributor shall serve as the national distributor of each class of each Series identified on Schedule I hereto, as from time to time amended, which Trust, Series and classes may do business under the names set forth on Schedule I hereto or such other names as the Board of Trustees may designate from time to time, on the terms and conditions set forth below.

2. (a)
The Distributor agrees to serve as distributor of each Series’ shares and, as agent for the Trust and not as principal, to advertise, promote and use its best efforts to sell each Series’ shares wherever their sale is legal, either through dealers or otherwise, in such places and in such manner, as may be mutually determined by the Trust and the Distributor from time to time and that comply with: (1) the provisions of this Agreement; (2) all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”), the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”), all rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) thereunder and all rules and regulations adopted by any securities association registered under the 1934 Act; (3) the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust and By-laws; (4) instructions received from the Trustees of the Trust; and (5) the Trust’s Registration Statement under the 1933 Act, including the Summary Prospectuses, the Statutory Prospectuses, and the Statements of Additional Information contained therein.
       
(b)
For the Class R6 and Institutional Class Shares of each Series, the Distributor will bear all costs of financing any activity which is primarily intended to result in the sale of that class of shares, including, but not necessarily limited to, advertising, compensation of underwriters, dealers and sales personnel, the printing and mailing of sales literature and distribution of that class of shares.


      (c)
For its services as agent for the Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class R Shares of each Series, the Distributor shall be entitled to compensation on each sale or redemption, as appropriate, of shares of such classes equal to any front-end or deferred sales charge described in the Prospectus for such Series, as amended and supplemented from time to time, and may allow concessions to dealers in such amounts and on such terms as are therein set forth.
       
(d)
For the Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class R Shares of each Series, the Trust shall, in addition, compensate the Distributor for its services as provided in the Distribution Plan as adopted on behalf of the Class A Shares, Class C Shares and Class R Shares, respectively, pursuant to Rule 12b-l under the 1940 Act (the “Plans”), copies of which as presently in force are attached hereto as Exhibits and at the rates set forth on Schedule I hereto, as from time to time amended, or at such lower rates as may be set from time to time by the Board in agreement with the Trust.
 
3. (a)
The Trust agrees to make available for sale by the Trust through the Distributor all or such part of the authorized but unissued shares of beneficial interest of the Series as the Distributor shall require from time to time and, except as provided in Paragraph 3(b) hereof, the Trust will not sell Series’ shares other than through the efforts of the Distributor.
       
(b)

4.
The Distributor may, at its expense, select and contract with one or more registered broker-dealers to perform some or all of the services for a Series for which it is responsible under this agreement. The Distributor will be responsible for paying the compensation, if any, to any such broker-dealer for its services with respect to the Series. The Distributor may terminate the services of any such broker-dealer at any time in its sole discretion, and shall at such time assume the responsibilities of such broker-dealer unless or until a replacement is selected and approved by the Board of Trustees.

2. (a) The Distributor shall use the monies paid to it pursuant to paragraph 1 above to furnish, or cause or encourage others to furnish, services and incentives in connection with the promotion, offering and sale of the relevant Class shares and, where suitable and appropriate, the retention of such Class shares by shareholders.

3. The Distributor shall report to the Trust at least monthly on the amount and the use of the monies paid to it under the Plan. The Service Providers shall inform the Trust monthly and in writing of the amounts each claims under the Plan; both the Distributor and the Service Providers shall furnish the Board of Trustees of the Trust with such other information as the Board may reasonably request in connection with the payments made under the Plan and the use thereof by the Distributor and the Service Providers, respectively, in order to enable the Board to make an informed determination of the amount of the Trust” payments with respect to each Class and whether the Plan should be continued with respect to each Class.

4. The officers of the Trust shall furnish to the Board of Trustees of the Trust, for their review, on a quarterly basis, a written report of the amounts expended under the Plan with respect to each Class and the purposes for which such expenditures were made.

6. (a) The Plan may be terminated as to the A Class of any particular Series at any time by vote of a majority of the non-interested Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of such Class.

(b) The Plan may not be amended as to the A Class of any particular Series to increase materially the amount to be spent for distribution pursuant to paragraph 1 hereof without approval by the shareholders of such Class.

7. All material amendments to this Plan shall be approved by the non-interested Trustees in the manner described in paragraph 5 above.

8. So long as the Plan is in effect, the selection and nomination of the Trust’s non-interested Trustees shall be committed to the discretion of such non-interested Trustees.

9. The definitions contained in Sections 2(a)(19) and 2(a)(42) of the Act shall govern the meaning of “interested person(s)” and “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities,” respectively, for the purposes of this Plan.

This Plan shall take effect on the Commencement Date, as previously defined.
