Distribution Agreement Amendment 2

Schedule A to this Amendment
Amendments 

Effective as of September 11, 2020, the Existing Agreement is amended as follows:

1. Section 4 of the Existing Agreement shall be amended by adding the following sub-section:

“(p) At the request and direction of the Trust, ALPS enters into agreements with financial intermediaries in connection with the sale of Fund shares (each, an “Intermediary Agreement”). ALPS will not be obligated to make payments to any such financial intermediaries unless ALPS has received an authorized payment from the Trust, if subject to a distribution plan or other such plan approved by the Trust’s board of trustees, and/or the applicable fund’s investment adviser. In addition, to the extent that ALPS is requested or required by the Trust to enter into Intermediary Agreements on behalf of the Trust, ALPS and each of its affiliates, members, shareholders, directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, successors or assigns (“ALPS Associates”) shall not be liable to the Trust for any action or inaction of any ALPS Associate except to the extent of direct Losses¹ finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of ALPS in the performance of ALPS’ duties, obligations, representations, warranties or indemnities under an Intermediary Agreement. Under no circumstances shall ALPS Associates be liable for Losses that are indirect, special, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary or enhanced or that represent lost profits, opportunity costs or diminution of value. The Trust shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless ALPS Associates from and against Losses (including legal fees and costs to enforce this provision) that ALPS Associates suffer, incur, or pay as a result of any third-party claim or claim among the parties arising out of the subject matter of or otherwise in any way related to an Intermediary Agreement (“Claims”). Any expenses (including legal fees and costs) incurred by ALPS Associates in defending or responding to any Claims (or in enforcing this provision) shall be paid by the Trust on a quarterly basis prior to the final disposition of such matter upon receipt by the Trust of an undertaking by ALPS to repay such amount if it shall be determined that a ALPS Associate is not entitled to be indemnified. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this paragraph or elsewhere in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver by the Trust of any of its legal rights available under U.S. federal securities laws or any other laws whose applicability is not permitted to be contractually waived.”

¹  As used in this Agreement, the term “Losses” means any and all compensatory, direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, punitive, exemplary, enhanced or other damages, settlement payments, attorneys’ fees, costs, damages, charges, expenses, interest, applicable taxes or other losses of any kind.
