No fee, shall be payable hereunder with respect to a Fund during any period in which the Fund invests all (or substantially all) of its investment assets in a registered, open-end, management investment company, or separate series thereof, in accordance with and reliance upon Section 12(d)(1)(E) under the 1940 Act (“Dormant Provision”).
If the Sub-Adviser shall provide management and other services for less than the whole of a month, or if the Sub-Adviser shall become entitled to received fees by reason of a Fund not investing in accordance with the Dormant Provision for less than the whole of a month, the foregoing compensation shall be prorated based on the number of days in the month that such Sub-Adviser provided such services to the Fund or was entitled to fees.
The net assets under management against which the foregoing fees are to be applied are the net assets as of the last day of the month. If this fee agreement becomes effective subsequent to the first day of a month or shall terminate before the last day of a month, compensation for that part of the month this agreement is in effect shall be subject to a pro rata adjustment based on the number of days elapsed in the current month as a percentage of the total number of days in such month. During any period when the determination of net asset value is suspended, the net asset value for the last day prior to such suspension shall for this purpose be deemed to be the net asset value at the close of the month.
