The Fund Manager agrees to provide an annual certification with respect to compliance with the Selective Disclosure Policy. | |

the following sections: “The portfolio’s investment goal,” and “What the portfolio invests in”
(collectively, “Portfolio Description”) is consistent with the manner in which the Fund Manager
intends to manage each Portfolio, and the description of “Risks you should be aware of” (“Risk
Description”) is consistent with risks known to the Fund Manager that arise in connection with the
