(c) The Sub-Adviser, in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement for the Funds, shall act in conformity with the most recent version of the Trust's Declaration of Trust, its By-Laws and the Funds' Prospectus that have been provided to it by the Adviser and with the reasonable instructions and directions of the Trust's Board of Trustees and the Adviser, and will conform to and comply with the requirements of the 1940 Act and all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations;

(d) The Sub-Adviser shall place portfolio transactions pursuant to its determinations either directly with the issuer or with any broker and/or dealer in such securities, subject to Section 3 below;

(e) The Sub-Adviser shall maintain books and records with respect to the securities transactions of the Sub-Advised Assets and shall render to the Adviser and the Trust's Board of Trustees such periodic and special reports as the Adviser or the Board may reasonably request;

(f) The Sub-Adviser shall provide the Trust's custodian and fund accountant on each business day with information about Fund securities transactions for which it is responsible, and with such other information relating to the Trust as may be required under the terms of the then cm-rent custody agreement between the Trust and the custodian;

(g) With respect to the Sub-Advised Assets, the Sub-Adviser shall respond as quickly as reasonably possible to any request from the Adviser or the Funds' fund accountant for assistance in obtaining price sources for securities held by the Funds or determining a price when a price source is not available, and shall periodically review the prices used by the fund accountant to determine net asset value and advise the fund accountant promptly if any price appears to be incorrect;

(h) With respect to the Sub-Advised Assets, the Sub-Adviser shall vote all proxies solicited by or with respect to the issuers of securities in which assets of the Funds may be invested from time to time. Such proxies will be voted in a manner that the Sub-Adviser deems, in good faith, to be in the best interests of the Funds and in accordance with the Sub-Adviser's proxy voting policy. The Sub-Adviser shall provided a copy of its proxy voting policy, and any amendments thereto, to the Adviser prior to the execution of this Agreement;

(i) The Sub-Adviser hereby represents that it has adopted a written code of ethics complying with the requirements of Rule 17j-1 under the 1940 Act and will provide the Adviser and the Trust with a copy of the code and evidence of its adoption. Within 45 days of the last calendar quat1er of each year while this Agreement is in effect, the Sub-Adviser shall provide to the Board a written report that describes any issues arising under the code of ethics since the last report to the Board, including, but not limited to, information about material violations of the code and sanctions imposed in response to the material violations; and which certifies that the Sub-Adviser has adopted procedures reasonably necessary to prevent access persons (as that tem1 is defined in Rule 17j-1) from violating the code;

G) The Sub-Adviser agrees to maintain adequate compliance procedures to ensure its compliance with the 1940 Act, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, and other applicable federal and state regulations. The Sub-Adviser shall provide to the Trust's Chief Compliance Officer the executive summary of its annual written report regarding the Sub Adviser's compliance program.

Section 3. Execution of Purchase and Sale Orders. In connection with purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the account of the Funds, the Sub-Adviser will arrange for the placing of all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the account with brokers or dealers selected by the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser's selection of brokers and dealers will be reviewed by the Board from time to time. The Sub-Adviser will be responsible for the negotiation and the allocation of principal business and portfolio brokerage. In the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of such orders, the Sub-Adviser will at all times seek for the Funds the best execution, taking into account such factors as price (including the applicable brokerage commission or dealer spread), the execution capability, financial responsibility and responsiveness of the broker or dealer and the brokerage and research services provided by the broker or dealer.

The Sub-Adviser should generally seek favorable prices and commission rates that are reasonable in relation to the benefits received. In seeking best execution, the Sub Adviser is authorized to select brokers or dealers who also provide brokerage and research services to the Funds and/or the other accounts over which it exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser is authorized to pay a broker or dealer who provides such brokerage and research services a commission for executing a Fund pm1folio transaction that is in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that the amount of the commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by the executing broker or dealer. The determination may be viewed in terms of either a pa11icular transaction or the Sub Adviser's overall responsibilities with respect to the Funds and to accounts over which the Sub Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Trust and the Sub-Adviser understand and acknowledge that, although the information may be useful to the Funds and the Sub-Adviser, it is not possible to place a dollar value on such information. The Board shall periodically review the commissions paid by the Funds to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods of time were reasonable in relation to the benefits to the Funds. The Sub-Adviser may not give consideration to sales of shares of the Funds as a factor in the selection of brokers and dealers to execute Fund portfolio transactions.

Subject to the provisions of the 1940 Act, and other applicable law, the Sub Adviser, any of its affiliates or any affiliates of its affiliates may retain compensation in connection with effecting the Funds' portfolio transactions, including transactions effected through others. If any occasion should arise in which the Sub-Adviser gives any advice to clients of the Sub-Adviser concerning the shares of the Funds, the Sub-Adviser will act solely as investment counsel for such client and not in any way on behalf of the Funds.

Section 4. Services to Other Companies or Accounts. The Sub-Adviser's services to the Funds pursuant to this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive and it is understood that the Sub-Adviser may render investment advice, management and other services to others, including other registered investment companies. The Adviser recognizes that, in some cases, having multiple clients for which a particular investment may be suitable may limit the size of the position of that investment that may be acquired or sold for the Funds. In addition, the Adviser understands that the persons employed by the Sub-Adviser to assist in the performance of the Sub-Adviser's duties hereunder will not devote their full time to such service and nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict the right of the Sub-Adviser or any affiliate of the Sub-Advisor to engage in and devote time and. attention to other business or to render services of whatever kind or nature.

Section 5. Books and Records. The Sub-Adviser shall keep the books and records required to be maintained by it pursuant to Section 2(e) of this Agreement.

The Sub-Adviser further agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act any such records as are required to be maintained by the Sub-Adviser with respect to the Trust by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act.

Section 6. Expenses of the Sub-Adviser. During the term of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this Agreement other than the cost of securities and investments purchased for the Funds (including taxes and brokerage conm1issions, if any). All other expenses to be incurred in the operation of the Funds will be home by the Funds, except to the extent specifically assumed by the Sub Adviser, the Adviser or a third pru1y.

Section 7. Compensation of the Sub-Adviser. For the services provided and the expenses borne pursuant to this Agreement, the Adviser will pay to the Sub-Adviser as full compensation therefor a monthly fee at an annual rate equal to 0.18% of the average daily net assets of the first $50 million of Sub-Advised Assets, 0.14% of the average daily net assets of the next $50 million of Sub-Advised Assets, 0.10% of the average daily net assets of the next $200 million of Sub-Advised Assets, 0.07% of the average daily net assets of the next $700 million of Sub-Advised Assets, and 0.05% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion of Sub Advised Assets. With respect Section 7 of this Agreement, the Sub-Advised Assets will include all assets the Sub-Adviser manages for the Trust. The minimum annual fee payable by Adviser to Sub-Adviser is $45,000. The annual minimum of $45,000 pertains to the aggregate fees from all accounts of the Trust and is not for each of the Trust's funds. This fee for each month will be paid to the Sub-Adviser during the succeeding month. The Adviser is solely responsible for the payment of the Sub-Adviser's fees, and the Sub-Adviser agrees not to seek payment of its fees from the Trust or the Funds.

Section 8. Use of Names. The Trust ru1d Sub-Adviser acknowledge that all rights to the name "LoCorr" belong to the Adviser, and that the Trust is being granted a limited license to use such words in its Funds name or in any class name.

The right to the name may also be withdrawn by the Adviser during the term of the Management Agreement upon 90 days' written notice by the Adviser to the Trust. Nothing contained herein shall impair or diminish in any respect the Adviser's right to use the name "LoCorr'" in the name of, or in connection with, any other business enterprises with which the Adviser is or may become associated. There is no charge to the Trust for the right to use this name.

The Adviser agrees to submit copies of all proposed prospectuses, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, sales literature, or other material prepared for distribution to interest holders of the Funds or the public that refer in any way to the Sub-Adviser (other than identifying the Sub-Adviser as Sub-Adviser to the Funds) to the Sub-Adviser at its principal office for review prior to use, and the Sub-Adviser agrees to review such materials by a reasonable and appropriate deadline. Neither the Adviser, nor the Funds nor any affiliate of the foregoing will use the registered trademarks, service marks, logos, names or any other proprietary designations of Sub-Adviser, its subsidiaries and/or affiliates (collectively, "Sub Adviser Marks") in any advertising or promotional materials without Sub-Adviser's prior written approval, which will not be unreasonably withheld. In the event of termination of this Agreement, the Adviser will continue to furnish to the Sub-Adviser copies of any of the above mentioned materials that refer in any way to the Sub-Adviser. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
