Distribution of Shares: Retail Class shares are sold primarily to retail investors through approved financial supermarkets, investment advisors and consultants, financial planners, brokers, dealers and other investment professionals and their agents. The Funds’ shares are also offered directly through their distributor. Institutional Class shares are offered primarily for direct investments by investors such as pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts, endowments, foundations, corporations and high net worth individuals. R6 Class shares are offered primarily to large, institutional retirement plans.

Minimum Investment Amounts: The minimum initial investment in Retail Class shares is $10,000 for regular accounts and $5,000 for retirement accounts. The minimum initial investment in Institutional Class shares is $5,000,000 for all accounts. The minimum initial investment in R6 Class shares is $30,000,000. Once an account is established, subsequent investments of $500 may be made for the Retail Class and subsequent investments of $100 may be made through an automatic investment plan. Once an account is established, subsequent investments may be made in any amount for the Institutional Class and R6 Class.

Voting Rights: Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each share held on the record date for any action requiring a vote by the shareholders and a proportionate fractional vote for each fractional vote held. Shareholders of the Trust will vote in the aggregate and not by Fund or Class except as otherwise expressly required by law or when the Trustees determine that the matter to be voted upon affects only the interests of the shareholders of a particular Fund or Class.

4.	Allocation of Expenses

a)	Class Expenses. Each Class of shares may be subject to different Class expenses (collectively, “Class Expenses”) consisting of:

Front-end sales charges or CDSCs;

ii.	Rule 12b-1 plan distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees, if applicable to a particular Class;

iii.	Transfer agency and other recordkeeping costs to the extent allocated to a particular Class;

iv.	SEC and blue sky registration fees incurred separately by a particular Class;

v.	Litigation or other legal expenses relating solely to a particular Class;

vi.	Printing and postage expenses related to the preparation and distribution of Class specific materials such as shareholder reports, prospectuses and proxies to shareholders of a particular Class;

vii.	Expenses of administrative personnel and services as required to support the shareholders of a particular Class;

viii.

Audit or accounting fees or expenses relating solely to a particular Class;

ix.	Trustee fees and expenses incurred as a result of issues relating solely to a particular Class; and

Any other expenses subsequently identified that should be properly allocated to a particular Class, which shall be approved by the Board of Trustees.

Other Expenses. Except for the Class Expenses discussed above (which will be allocated to the appropriate Class), all expenses incurred by the Fund will be allocated to all Classes of shares on the basis of the net asset value of each Class to the net asset value of the Trust or the Fund, as the case may be. Excess expenses created by the imposition of an operating expense limit on one or more Classes shall be considered general Fund expenses.

(c)

Waivers and Reimbursements of Expenses. The Fund's investment adviser and any provider of services to the Fund may waive or reimburse the expenses of a particular Class or Classes; provided, however, that such waiver shall not result in cross-subsidization between Classes.

5. Allocation of Income. The Fund will allocate income and realized and unrealized capital gains and losses based on the relative net assets of each Class of shares.

6. Exchange Features. Shares of each Fund may be exchanged for shares of the same Class of any other Fund, subject to minimum purchase requirements.

7. Conversions. A shareholder of Retail Class shares may request or be allowed to convert their Retail Class shares to Institutional Class shares if they are eligible in accordance with the Funds’ current registration statement. Any implementation of a conversion feature is subject to the continuing availability of a ruling or regulations of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), or of an opinion of counsel or tax adviser, stating that the conversion of one Class of shares to another does not constitute a taxable event under federal income tax law. The conversion feature may be suspended if such a ruling, regulation or opinion is not available. R6 Class shares do not have conversion rights.

8. Board Review. The Board of Trustees of the Trust shall review the Plan as it deems necessary. Prior to any material amendment(s) to the Plan with respect to any of the Fund’s shares, the Trust’s Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees that are not interested persons of the Trust, shall find that the Plan, as proposed to be amended (including any proposed amendments to the method of allocating class and/or fund expenses), is in the best interest of each class of shares of the Fund individually and the Fund as a whole. In considering whether to approve any proposed amendment(s) to the Plan, the Trustees of the Trust shall request and evaluate such information as they consider reasonably necessary to evaluate the proposed amendment(s) to the Plan.

9. Effectiveness. This Plan shall become effective with respect to each Class (a) to the extent required by Rule 18f‑3, after approval by a majority vote of: (i) the Board; (ii) the members of the Board who are not interested persons of the Trust and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Trust’s Plan, and (b) upon execution of an exhibit adopting this Plan with respect to such Class.

This Multiple Class Plan is adopted by Advisors Series Trust with respect to the Classes of the Funds, series of Advisors Series Trust, as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto.

WITNESS the due execution hereof this 28th day of January, 2018.
