The parties may agree that Sub-Administrator will provide additional services to the Administrator. The Sub-Administrator shall perform such other services for the Trust that are mutually agreed to by the parties in writing from time to time, which may be required to be in the form of an amendment to this Agreement, for which the Administrator will pay such fees, including the Sub-Administrator’s reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, as may be mutually agreed upon. Sub-Administrator will not begin performing any additional service until the parties have agreed in writing upon the terms and conditions of such additional service. Upon the parties’ written agreement to add the additional services, such additional services shall be included within the scope of the services to the same extent and in the same manner as if specifically described above. Such additional services may include, subject to the Sub-Administrator being able to perform the services for such fees that are mutually agreed upon and the services being those that are customarily performed by the Sub-Administrator as an administrator, services requested by the Administrator and related to the Administrator receiving a ruling, order, enforcement action or similar directive from a regulatory body or court of law.

The Sub-Administrator shall provide the office facilities and the personnel determined by it to perform the services contemplated herein. Furthermore, the Sub-Administrator represents and warrants that it conducts background checks on employees as part of its standard hiring practices and based on applicable regulatory requirements. Sub-Administrator shall not knowingly assign, nor remain to allow assigned, any personnel to Administrator’s account or otherwise permit any of its personnel to have access to personal information, as defined in Section 17 below, who have been found to have engaged in criminal acts that involve fraud, dishonesty, or breach of trust, or that constitute a felony under applicable law.

6.	FEES; EXPENSES; EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT

The Sub-Administrator shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and expenses as agreed upon from time to time between the Administrator and the Sub-Administrator. All rights of compensation and expense reimbursement under this Agreement for services performed as of the termination date shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

The Administrator agrees promptly to reimburse the Sub-Administrator for any equipment and supplies specially ordered by or for the Administrator or Trust through the Sub-Administrator and for any other expenses not contemplated by this Agreement that the Sub-Administrator may incur on the Trust’s or the Administrator’s behalf provided that the Trust or the Administrator gives its prior written consent.

Each of the Sub-Administrator and the Administrator agrees to bear its own operating expenses in connection with this Agreement. The Administrator will bear all Trust expenses that are incurred by the Administrator on behalf of the Trusts in its operation, unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties hereto.

For the avoidance of doubt, the types of the Administrator’s or the Trust’s operational costs that the Sub-Administrator will not bear include: organizational expenses; cost of services of independent accountants and outside legal and tax counsel (including such counsel’s review of the Registration Statement, Form N-CSR, Form N-Q, Form N-PX, Form N-MFP, Form N-SAR, proxy materials, federal and state tax qualification as a regulated investment company and other notices, registrations, reports, filings and materials prepared by the Sub-Administrator under this Agreement); cost of any services contracted for by the Trust directly from parties other than the Sub-Administrator; cost of trading operations and brokerage fees, commissions and transfer taxes in connection with the purchase and sale of securities for the Trust; investment advisory fees; taxes, insurance premiums and other fees and expenses applicable to its operation; costs incidental to any meetings of shareholders including, but not limited to, legal and accounting fees, proxy filing fees and the costs of preparation (e.g., typesetting, XBRL-tagging, page changes and all other print vendor and XXXXX charges, collectively referred to herein as “Preparation”), printing, distribution and mailing of any proxy materials; costs incidental to Board meetings, including fees and expenses of Board members; the salary and expenses of any officer, director\trustee or employee of the Trust; costs of Preparation, printing, distribution and mailing, as applicable, of the Trust’s Registration Statements and any amendments and supplements thereto and shareholder reports; cost of Preparation and filing of the Trust’s tax returns, Form N-1A, Form N-CSR, Form N-Q, Form N-PX, Form N-MFP and Form N-SAR, and all notices, registrations and amendments associated with applicable federal and state tax and securities laws; all applicable registration fees and filing fees required under federal and state securities laws; the cost of fidelity bond and D&O/E&O liability insurance; and the cost of independent pricing services used in computing the Fund(s)’ net asset value.

The Sub-Administrator is authorized to and may employ, associate or contract with such person or persons as the Sub-Administrator may deem desirable to assist it in performing its duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the compensation of such person or persons shall be paid by the Sub-Administrator and that the Sub-Administrator shall be as fully responsible to the Administrator for the acts and omissions of any such person or persons as it is for its own acts and omissions. The Sub-Administrator shall reasonably cooperate with the Administrator in its interaction with sub-advisors of the Trusts, and other third parties with respect to the provision of the services hereunder.

7.	INSTRUCTIONS AND ADVICE

At any time, the Sub-Administrator may apply to the Administrator or any officer of a Trust or his or her designee for instructions and may consult with the independent accountants for the Trust with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Sub-Administrator under this Agreement. In consultation with the Administrator, the Sub-Administrator shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon advice of counsel (who may be counsel for a Trust ) on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice. The Sub-Administrator shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person until receipt of written notice thereof from the Administrator. Nothing in this section shall be construed as imposing upon the Sub-Administrator any obligation to seek instructions or advice.

8.	LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION

8.1. The Sub-Administrator shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties as are set forth in this Agreement and, except as otherwise provided under Section 6, shall have no responsibility for the actions or activities of any other party, including other service providers. The Sub-Administrator shall act in good faith and with reasonable care and without negligence in carrying out the provisions of this Agreement (the “Standard of Care”). The Sub-Administrator shall be kept indemnified by the Administrator and shall be without liability to the Administrator or any Trust for any action taken or omitted by it in accordance with the Standard of Care, including without limitation acting in accordance with instructions reasonably believed by the Sub-Administrator to have been duly authorized by the Administrator or any Trust or upon reasonable reliance on information, instructions or records given or made by the Administrator or any Trust or any authorized persons. The Sub-Administrator shall have no liability in respect of any loss, damage or expense suffered by the Administrator or any Trust insofar as such loss, damage or expense arises from the performance of the Sub-Administrator’s duties hereunder in reliance upon records that were maintained for the Administrator or the Trust by entities other than the Sub-Administrator prior to the Sub-Administrator’s appointment as sub-administrator for the Trust, unless such loss, damage or expense is caused by or results directly from Sub-Administrator’s (i) failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the Standard of Care; or (ii) its negligence, fraud, criminal acts, bad faith or willful or intentional misconduct. The Sub-Administrator shall have no liability for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss or damage resulting from the performance or nonperformance of its duties hereunder unless caused by or resulting directly from its failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the Standard of Care, or its negligence, bad faith, fraud, criminal act or willful or intentional misconduct.

8.2. In any event, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties hereto, the Sub-Administrator’s cumulative liability for each contract year (a “Liability Period”) with respect to the Administrator and any Trust under this Agreement, regardless of the form of action or legal theory shall be limited to its total annual compensation earned and fees payable hereunder during the preceding Compensation Period, as defined below, for any liability or loss suffered by the Administrator and any Trust including, but not limited to, any liability relating to qualification of the Trust as a regulated investment company or any liability relating to the Trust’s compliance with any federal or state tax or securities statute, regulation or ruling during such Liability Period. “Compensation Period” shall mean the contract year ending immediately prior to each Liability Period in which the event(s) giving rise to the Sub-Administrator’s liability for that period have occurred.

8.3. Administrator’s aggregate liability during the term of this Agreement arising out of or resulting from the performance and non-performance of its obligations hereunder shall be limited to direct damages incurred by Sub-Administrator for each event that is the subject matter of a claim or cause of action. The Sub-Administrator agrees that for services rendered under this Agreement, or for any claim by the Sub-Administrator in connection with services rendered under this Agreement, regardless of whether such claim is in the nature of contract, tort or otherwise, the Sub-Administrator will look to the Administrator, not the Trusts, for satisfaction.

8.4. In no event shall either party be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages. This Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

8A.

CONDUCT OF CLAIMS

In connection with any indemnification provided hereunder, the indemnified party may make claims for indemnification by giving written notice thereof to the indemnifying party after it receives notice of a claim, but the failure to do so shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability except to the extent that it is materially prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. Such notice shall summarize the bases for the claim for indemnification and any claim or liability being asserted.

Within thirty (30) days after receiving any such notice, the indemnifying party shall give written notice to the indemnified party stating whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and whether it will defend against any claim at its own cost and expense. If the indemnifying party fails to give notice that it disputes an indemnification claim within thirty (30) days after the receipt of notice thereof, it shall be deemed to have accepted and agreed to indemnify the claim.

The indemnifying party shall be entitled to direct the defense against a claim with counsel selected by it (subject to the consent of the indemnified party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) as long as the indemnifying party is conducting a good faith and diligent defense. The indemnified party shall at all times have the right to fully participate in the defense of a claim at its own expense directly or through counsel; provided, however, that if the named parties to the action or proceeding include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, and the indemnified party is advised that representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct, the indemnified party may engage separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. If no such notice of intent to dispute and defend a claim is given by the indemnifying party, or if such good faith and diligent defense is not being or ceases to be

conducted by the indemnifying party, the indemnified party shall have the right, at the expense of the indemnifying party, to undertake the defense of such claim (with counsel selected by the indemnified party), and to compromise or settle it, exercising reasonable business judgment. If the claim is one that by its nature cannot be defended solely by the indemnifying party, then the indemnified party shall make available such information and assistance as the indemnifying party may reasonably request and shall cooperate with the indemnifying party in such defense, at the expense of the indemnifying party. The indemnifying party shall have the right to settle any third-party claim without the consent of the indemnified party provided that such settlement (i) fully releases the indemnified party from any liability and provides no admission of wrongdoing, and (ii) does not subject the indemnified party to any additional obligation, whether financial or otherwise. In the event that any such settlement does not meet the requirements of (i) and (ii) above, then the indemnified party must consent to such settlement in writing, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9.	CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that in order to perform the duties called for in this Agreement, it may be necessary for a party (“disclosing party”) to disclose to the other party (“receiving party”) certain “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information means non-public, proprietary information, data or know-how of an owner. Receiving party will not use disclosing party’s Confidential Information except as required for the performance of this Agreement. Each party will use commercially reasonable efforts to hold in confidence a party’s Confidential Information. Excluding “personal information” as defined in Section 17 below, the parties’ confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement do not apply to Confidential Information that the disclosing party can reasonably demonstrate is: (i) already in the possession of the receiving party or its subsidiaries and not subject to a confidentiality obligation to the disclosing party; (ii) independently developed by the receiving party; (iii) publicly disclosed or in the public domain through no fault of the receiving party; (iv) rightfully received by the receiving party or its subsidiaries from a third party that is not under any obligation to keep such information confidential; or (v) disclosed pursuant to the requirements of any legal or regulatory proceeding, investigation, audit, examination, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, or by operation of law or regulation. The receiving party will, to the extent practicable and except as may be prohibited by law, regulation or legal process, provide the disclosing party with prompt written notice to permit the disclosing party to object to the disclosure or seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy. Upon termination of this Agreement, each party shall return to the other party or permanently destroy all copies of Confidential Information received from the other party hereunder, other than materials or information required to be retained by such party under applicable laws or regulations or its internal recordkeeping and archival policies. This Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

10.

COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL RULES AND REGULATIONS; RECORDS

The Sub-Administrator shall comply with all laws and regulations applicable to it as such laws and regulations relate to the Sub-Administrator’s performance of the services hereunder. In compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Sub-Administrator agrees that all records which it maintains for each Trust shall at all times remain the property of the Trust, shall be readily accessible during normal business hours, and shall be

promptly surrendered upon the termination of the Agreement or otherwise on written request. The Sub-Administrator further agrees that all records that it maintains for the Trust pursuant to Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act will be preserved for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act unless any such records are earlier surrendered as provided above. Records may be surrendered in either written or machine-readable form, at the option of the Sub-Administrator. The Administrator acknowledges that each Trust assumes full responsibility for complying with all securities, tax, commodities and other laws, rules and regulations applicable to it. The Sub-Administrator shall provide the Administrator with copies of periodic SSAE 16 reports that include a review of the Sub-Administrator’s operations that relate to the services provided hereunder.

11.

SERVICES NOT EXCLUSIVE

The services of the Sub-Administrator are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Sub-Administrator shall be free to render similar services to others. The Sub-Administrator shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided herein or authorized by the Administrator from time to time, have no authority to act or represent the Administrator or any Trust in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Administrator or any Trust.

12.

EFFECTIVE PERIOD AND TERMINATION

12.1. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for an initial term ending five (5) years from the date hereof (the “Initial Term”). After the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless a written notice of non-renewal is delivered by the non-renewing party no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as the case may be.

12.2. During the Initial Term and thereafter, this Agreement may be terminated only by provision of a notice of nonrenewal as set forth above or by mutual written agreement of the parties. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, either party may terminate this Agreement by providing one hundred and twenty (120) days written notice to the other party in any of the following circumstances: (a) a material breach (including non-payment of fees or expenses by the Administrator) of this Agreement by the party to be terminated that has not been remedied for thirty (30) days following written notice of such breach from the non-breaching party; (b) a final, unappealable judicial, regulatory or administrative ruling or order in which the party to be terminated has been found guilty of criminal or unethical behavior in the conduct of its business; (c) financial difficulties on the part of the party to be terminated which are evidenced by the authorization or commencement of, or involvement by way of pleading, answer, consent or acquiescence in, a voluntary or involuntary case under Title 11 of the United States Code, as from time to time is in effect, or any applicable law, other than said Title 11, of any jurisdiction relating to the liquidation or reorganization of debtors or to the modification or alteration of the rights of creditors (and in the event of any involuntary case, such case is not discharged within ninety (90) days); or (d) solely with respect to the Sub-Administrator, that it shall be indicted for a crime, or shall suffer any other material adverse change in its conditions, operations or professional reputation that is determined by the Administrator in its reasonable discretion to threaten the continuing performance of services hereunder or the reputation of the Administrator. In addition, either

party hereto may terminate this Agreement by notice to the other party, effective at any time specified therein, in the event that (a) the other party ceases to carry on its business or (b) a receiver, conservator or similar officer is appointed for the other party and such conservatorship or receivership is not discharged within ninety (90) days. In addition, this Agreement may be terminated by the Administrator immediately in the event of the appointment of a conservator or receiver for the Sub-Administrator by the Comptroller of the Currency or upon the happening of a like event at the direction of an appropriate regulatory agency or court of competent jurisdiction.

12.3. In the event of termination or non-renewal of this Agreement, the Administrator will promptly pay the Sub-Administrator its compensation due through the date of such termination and shall reimburse the Sub-Administrator for its costs, expenses and disbursements through the date of such termination. In the event of: (i) the Administrator’s termination of this Agreement with respect to any Trust or its Fund(s) for any reason other than as set forth in Section 12.2 hereof or (ii) a transaction not in the ordinary course of business pursuant to which the Sub-Administrator is not retained to continue providing services hereunder to a Trust or Fund (or its respective successor), the Administrator shall pay the Sub-Administrator its compensation due through the end of the then-current term (based upon the average monthly compensation previously earned by Sub-Administrator with respect to such Trust or Fund) and shall reimburse the Sub-Administrator for its costs, expenses and disbursements. For the avoidance of doubt, provided that the Administrator has provided one hundred and twenty (120) days prior written notice of termination to the Sub-Administrator, no payment will be required pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 12.3 in the event of any transaction such as (a) the liquidation or dissolution of a Trust or Fund and the distribution of such Trust’s or Fund’s assets as a result of the Board’s determination in its reasonable business judgment that the Trust or Fund is no longer viable, (b) a merger of a Trust or Fund into, or the consolidation of a Trust or Fund with, another entity, or (c) the sale by a Trust or Fund of all, or substantially all, of its assets to another entity.

12.4. Termination of this Agreement with respect to any one particular Trust or Fund shall in no way affect the rights and duties under this Agreement with respect to any other Trust or Fund. In the event that this Agreement is terminated or not renewed for any reason, the Sub-Administrator shall provide such termination assistance as may be reasonably requested by the Administrator and mutually agreed to, for such compensation as may be agreed to.

DATA PRIVACY

The Sub-Administrator has established, and shall maintain, a written information security program, in compliance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and any other applicable laws and regulations, that contains appropriate security measures to safeguard the personal information of the Trusts’ shareholders, employees, directors and/or officers that the Sub-Administrator receives, stores, maintains, processes or otherwise accesses in connection with the provision of services hereunder. For these purposes, “personal information” shall mean (i) an individual’s name (first initial and last name or first name and last name), address or telephone number plus (a) social security number, (b) driver’s license number, (c) state identification card number, (d) debit or credit card number, (e) financial account number or (f) personal identification number or password that would permit access to a person’s account or (ii) any combination of the foregoing that would allow a person to log onto or access an individual’s account. Notwithstanding the foregoing “personal information” shall not include information that is lawfully obtained from publicly available information, or from federal, state or local government records lawfully made available to the general public. For the avoidance of doubt, “personal information” shall include (i) all “personal information” as defined in Section 17.02 of the Standards for The Protection of Personal Information of Residents of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (201 CMR 17), and (ii) any “nonpublic personal information” as defined under the Xxxxx-Xxxxx-Xxxxxx Act of 1999, each as may be amended from time to time.

If the Sub-Administrator discovers that unauthorized disclosure of personal information in the possession of the Sub-Administrator or its agents has occurred which requires notification to (a) the Administrator and (b) the affected individuals under applicable law, then the Sub-Administrator will, as soon as practicable and at Sub-Administrator’s own expense, (i) notify the Administrator of the nature of the breach and reasonably cooperate with Administrator’s requests for information; (ii) in coordination with the Administrator, notify the affected individuals of such unauthorized disclosure to the extent required by applicable law; (iii) investigate and address the unauthorized disclosure; and (iv) advise the Administrator as to the steps being taken that are reasonably designed to prevent future similar unauthorized disclosures. This provision will survive termination or expiration of the Agreement for so long as the Sub-Administrator continues to possess or have access to personal information related to the Trust.

18.

WAIVER

The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver nor shall it deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any term of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing signed by the waiving party.

19.

SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the balance of the Agreement shall remain in effect, and if any provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstance it shall nevertheless remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances.

20.

GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions thereof interpreted under and in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions.

21.

REPRODUCTION OF DOCUMENTS

This Agreement and all schedules, exhibits, attachments and amendments hereto may be reproduced by any digital, photographic, xerographic, photostatic, microfilm, micro-card, miniature photographic or other similar process. The parties hereto all/each agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.

22.	ADDITIONAL TRUSTS

In the event that any management investment company in addition to those listed on Schedule A hereto desires to have the Sub-Administrator render services under the terms hereof, the Administrator shall notify the Sub-Administrator in writing. Upon written acceptance by the Sub-Administrator, such investment company shall become a Trust hereunder and be bound by all terms and conditions and provisions hereof.

23.	ADDITIONAL FUNDS

In the event that any Trust establishes one or more funds in addition to the Funds listed on Schedule A with respect to which it desires to retain the Sub-Administrator to act as Sub-Administrator under the terms hereof, the Administrator shall notify the Sub-Administrator in writing. Upon written acceptance by the Sub-Administrator, such fund shall become a Fund hereunder and be bound by all terms and conditions and provisions hereof.

24.

SERVICE LEVEL DOCUMENTS

The Administrator and the Sub-Administrator may from time to time, in good faith, agree on certain performance measures by which the Sub-Administrator is expected to provide the services contemplated by this Agreement (“Service Level Documents”). The Service Level Documents are designed to provide metrics and other information which may be utilized by the parties to help measure performance. The parties agree Service Level Documents reflect performance measures as opposed to specific contractual obligations, except as may be otherwise agreed to.

25.

BUSINESS CONTINUITY/DISASTER RECOVERY

In the event of equipment failure, data corruption, work stoppage, governmental action, communication disruption or other impossibility of performance beyond the Sub-Administrator’s control, the Sub-Administrator shall take reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions. The Sub-Administrator shall enter into and shall maintain in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement with appropriate parties one or more agreements making reasonable provision for (i) periodic back-up of the computer files and data with respect to the Trusts; and (ii) emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to provide services under this Agreement. Upon reasonable request, the Sub-Administrator shall discuss with the Administrator any business continuity/disaster recovery plan of the Sub-Administrator and/or provide a high-level presentation summarizing such plan.

26.

INSURANCE

The Sub-Administrator shall at all times during the term of this Agreement maintain, at its cost, insurance coverage regarding its business in such amount and scope as it deems adequate. Upon the Administrator’s reasonable request, which in no event shall be more than once annually, the Sub-Administrator shall furnish to the Administrator a summary of the Sub-Administrator’s applicable insurance coverage.

27.

FORCE MAJEURE

Each party will be excused from performance under the Agreement for any period and to the extent (and only to the extent) that it is prevented from or delayed in performing any obligations pursuant to the Agreement, in whole or in part, as a result of a Force Majeure Event. If either party is prevented from, or delayed in performing any of its obligations under the Agreement by, a Force Majeure Event, it shall promptly notify the other party verbally (to be confirmed in writing within twenty-four (24) hours of the inception of the delay) of the occurrence of a Force Majeure Event and shall describe, in reasonable detail, the circumstances constituting the Force Majeure Event and the obligations, the performance of which are thereby delayed or prevented. The party claiming that a Force Majeure Event has occurred shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact or consequence of the event on the other party and to recommence performance whenever and to whatever extent possible without unreasonable delay. The affected party shall provide the other party with daily updates (and more frequent updates if requested) as to the status of its efforts to recommence performance and written notice upon conclusion of the Force Majeure Event. A Force Majeure Event occurs when either party is unable, other than as may arise from its own negligence or willful misconduct, to perform its obligations under the terms of this Agreement because of acts of God, acts of war or terrorism, strikes, or equipment or transmission failure or damage reasonably beyond its control, or other causes reasonably beyond its control, such party shall not be liable for damages to the other for any damages resulting from such failure to perform or otherwise from such causes.

28.

ANTI-CORRUPTION COMPLIANCE

The Sub-Administrator represents and warrants that it maintains policies, procedures and controls that are reasonably designed to prevent Sub-Administrator personnel from engaging in corrupt, unfair or fraudulent practices in connection with the provision of the

services hereunder, including, but not limited to, the Sub-Administrator or its personnel accepting bribes or making offers, payments, or promise to pay to any person, including, but not limited to, an executive, official, employee or agent of (i) a governmental department, agency or instrumentality, (ii) a wholly or partially government-owned or controlled company or business, or (iii) a political party (collectively, “Government Official”), for the purpose of influencing any act, decision or failure to act by such persons or a Government Official or securing an improper advantage in order to obtain, retain or direct business. The Sub-Administrator’s anti-corruption compliance program is rooted in the Sub-Administrator’s corporate Standard of Conduct and a fundamental requirement contained therein that Sub-Administrator employees must conduct themselves in a manner consistent with the highest level of legal, ethical and professional integrity. The program includes employee training and awareness and risk based procedural controls at the business unit level, pre-clearance approval of expenditures made to or for the benefit of government officials and employees through a centralized Ethics Office function, and recordkeeping controls.

29.

AUDITS; REGULATORY EXAMINATIONS

During the term of this Agreement, Sub-Administrator shall provide to Administrator and to its internal and external auditors, inspectors, regulators and other authorized representatives of the Administrator access to Sub-Administrator’s books and records and locations where it performs services for the purpose of conducting financial, operational, regulatory audits. Such audits shall be conducted at the Administrator’s expense (which shall include costs related to providing materials, copying, faxing, retrieving stored materials, and similar expenses) and shall occur during the Sub-Administrator’s regular business hours and upon advance notice to the Sub-Administrator and, except as otherwise agreed to by the parties or for regulatory audits, no more frequently than twice a year. Audits will be conducted with representatives of the Sub-Administrator present at all times. The Administrator’s representatives will comply with all standard safety, confidentiality and security procedures of the Sub-Administrator. In connection with such audits, the Administrator’s representatives shall not attempt to access, nor will they review, the records of any other clients of the Sub-Administrator and the Administrator shall conduct the visit/inspection in a manner that will not interfere with the Sub-Administrator’s normal and customary conduct of its business activities, including the provision of services to the Administrator and to other clients. The Sub-Administrator shall have the right to immediately require the removal of any Administrator’s representatives from its premises in the event that their actions, in the reasonable opinion of the Sub-Administrator, jeopardize the information security of its systems and/or other client data or otherwise are disruptive to the business of the Sub-Administrator. The Sub-Administrator may require any persons seeking access to its facilities to provide reasonable evidence of their authority. The Sub-Administrator may also reasonably require any of the Administrator’s representatives to execute a confidentiality agreement before granting such individuals access to its facilities. Nothing contained herein shall obligate the Sub-Administrator to provide access to or otherwise disclose: (i) any information that is unrelated to the Administrator or the Trusts and the provision of the services hereunder; (ii) any information that is treated as confidential under the Sub-Administrator’s corporate policies, including, without limitation, internal audit reports, compliance or risk management plans or reports, work papers and other reports and information relating to management functions; (iii) any other documents, reports or other information that the Sub-Administrator is obligated to maintain in confidence by contract, by

its regulators or otherwise as a matter of law, legal privilege or regulation; or (iv) access to the extent that such access would, in the Sub-Administrator’s reasonable opinion, compromise the security of its technology systems or the confidentiality of its customers.
