AMENDMENT
NO. 4 TO THE
AMENDED
AND RESTATED
DECLARATION
OF TRUST
AND
TRUST AGREEMENT
OF
MLM
INDEX™ FUND
This
AMENDMENT (“Amendment”) is made and entered into as of the 29th day of April,
2002 by and between MOUNT XXXXX MANAGEMENT CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation,
as manager (the “Manager”) and the Interest Holders whose signatures appear on
the execution page hereof and who hold in the aggregate more than 10% of the
outstanding Interests of each Series as of the date hereof (exclusive of the
Interests of the Manager) (the “Signing Interest Holders”), and is made with
reference to, and pursuant to the authority granted by Section 11.1 of that
certain Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement dated
the
31st day of August, 1998, by and among the Manager, the Trustee and the Interest
Holders of the MLM Index™ Fund (the “Trust”), as amended by that Amendment No. 1
to the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement of the
Trust entered into as of March 23, 1999, that Amendment No. 2 to the Amended
and
Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement of the Trust entered into
as
of February 2000 and that Amendment No. 3 to the Amended and Restated
Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement of the Trust entered into as of June
14, 2001 (as amended, the “Trust Agreement”). Capitalized terms used
but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Trust
Agreement.
WHEREAS,
it is desired that the Trust Agreement be amended as provided
below;
NOW,
THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:
1. Amendment
No. 3 to the Trust Agreement stated that the Trust would issue Interests in
a
separate Series entitled the “Class C Leveraged Series,” but the actual
intention of the parties was that such Interests be issued not in a new Series,
but rather in a new Class of the existing Leveraged Series and the parties
desire that the Trust Agreement be corrected to reflect that the Class C
Interests issued by the Trust pursuant to Amendment No. 3 were Class C Interests
in the existing Leveraged Series. In addition, the parties wish to
add a new Class to the existing Unleveraged Series and to provide that the
Manager, in its sole discretion, may, from time to time hereafter, cause the
Trust to issue additional Interests in then-existing Series and Classes, and
to
create additional Series and Classes (including additional Classes of existing
Series) and issue Interests therein, and such additional Interests, Series
and
Classes may, in the sole discretion of the Manager, have different rights and
obligations and be subject to different fee structures. Accordingly,
Section 3.1(e) shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with the
following:
8
“The
Trust may issue multiple Series of Interests, and shall issue Interests only
in
designated Series. Such Series may consist of separate
Classes. The Trust currently has issued Interests only in the
Unleveraged Series and the Leveraged Series. The Unleveraged Series
will attempt to replicate the MLM Index™ at a leverage ratio of 1 to 1, and the
Leveraged Series shall trade the MLM Index™ at a leverage ratio of 3 to
1. Within the Unleveraged Series, the Trust has currently issued the
following classes of Interests: Class A-1, Class B-1, Class A and
Class B. Within the Leveraged Series, the Trust has currently issued
the following classes of Interests: Class A-1, Class B-1, Class A,
Class B and Class C. The Trust will issue Class C Interests in the
Unleveraged Series. The Manager, in its sole discretion, may, from
time to time hereafter, cause the Trust to (i) issue additional Interests in
then-existing Series and Classes, and (ii) create additional Series and Classes
(including additional Classes of existing Series) and issue Interests
therein. Such additional Interests, Series and Classes may, in the
sole discretion of the Manager, have different rights and obligations and be
subject to different fee structures, all of which shall be documented in writing
by the Manager. The Trust will maintain separate and distinct records
for each Series and the assets associated with each such Series shall be held
and accounted for separately from the other assets of the Trust and of any
other
Series thereof. The debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses
incurred, contracted for or otherwise existing with respect to a particular
Series shall be enforceable against the assets of such Series only and not
against the assets of the Trust generally or the assets of any other
Series.”
2. Section
4.8 shall be replaced in its entirety to read as follows:
“The
Manager shall receive from the relevant Class of each Series a management fee
at
an annual rate of one and one-quarter percent (1.25%) for Class A-1 of the
Unleveraged Series, one and one-half percent (1.5%) for Class A of the
Unleveraged Series, one-quarter percent (.25%) for Class B-1 of the Unleveraged
Series, one-half percent (0.5%) for Class B of the Unleveraged Series, one
percent (1%) for Class C of the Unleveraged Series, one and sixty five-one
hundredths percent (1.65%) for Class A-1 of the Leveraged Series, two and
eight-tenths percent (2.80%) for Class A of the Leveraged Series, sixty five-one
hundredths percent (0.65%) for Class B-1 of the Leveraged Series, one and
three-tenths percent (1.3%) for Class B of the Leveraged Series and two and
five
one hundredths percent (2.05%) for Class C of the Leveraged Series based upon
the Net Asset Value of the relevant Class and Series, determined and paid as
of
the first day of each calendar month. The compensation to the Manager
applicable to new Series or Classes (including additional Classes of the
Unleveraged Series and the Leveraged Series) after May 30, 2002 shall be as
documented by the Manager in writing. The Manager shall, in its
capacity as an Interest Holder, be entitled to receive allocations and
distributions pursuant to the provisions of this Trust Agreement.
3. This
Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws
of
the State of Delaware (without regard to principles or rules of conflicts of
laws);
4. This
Amendment may be executed and delivered in any number of counterparts, each
of
which shall be an original, with the same effect as if all signatures were
on
the same instrument.
5. The
parties confirm that this Amendment does not: (i) adversely affect any of the
rights, duties or liabilities of the Trustee; (ii) adversely affect the
limitations on liability of the Interest Holders as described in Section 8.3
of
the Trust Agreement; (iii) adversely affect the status of each Series as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes without the consent of any affected
Interest Holder; (iv) change any Interest Holder’s share of the profits or
losses of a Series without the consent of such Interest Holder; (v) extend
the
duration of the Trust and each Series; or (vi) change the provisions of Section
11.1 of the Trust Agreement. The parties also confirm that the
adoption of this Amendment (a) is for the benefit of, or not adverse to, the
interests of the existing Interest Holders which have not consented to the
Amendment, (b) is consistent with Section 4.1 of the Trust Agreement, and (c)
does not affect the allocation of profits and losses among the Interest Holders
or between the other Interest Holders and the Manager.
