IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1.Appointment of Investment Adviser

The initial Investment Guidelines are attached hereto as Exhibit A and made a part hereof. Client hereby agrees to furnish to Investment Adviser information, authorizations and documentation as it may from time to time require to enable it to carry out its obligations under this Agreement or as required by law.
Section 2.Discretionary Authority
2.01
Subject to the Investment Guidelines, Investment Adviser shall have complete discretion, full power and authority, without obtaining Client's instructions, to make and implement such investment decisions, including sales, exchanges, investments or reinvestments, or to take any action that it deems necessary or desirable in connection with the assets in the Account, and in connection therewith to execute or cause to be executed on behalf of Client and the Account any and all documents as Investment Adviser determines are appropriate.
2.02
Subject to any restrictions and limitations in the Investment Guidelines, investments may be made in, but are not limited to, securities of any kind, whether issued by a domestic issuer or a foreign issuer, including common or preferred stocks, warrants, rights, corporate or government bonds or

2.03
To the extent authorized by the Investment Guidelines, Client authorizes Investment Adviser to invest Account assets in any of the registered, open-end investment companies listed in the Investment Guidelines for which Investment Adviser or an affiliate serves as investment adviser (“JPMorgan Funds”).

Client understands Investment Adviser’s relationship with the JPMorgan Funds and approves the investment advisory and other fees paid by each JPMorgan Fund to Investment Adviser and its affiliates through Client’s investments in the JPMorgan Fund, recognizing that such fees differ among the JPMorgan Funds and may be higher or lower than the advisory fee otherwise payable hereunder.

Investment Adviser will allocate such orders at the average price of the aggregated order, except in instances where it is impractical or inappropriate. Further information regarding Investment Adviser’s order aggregation practices is available in Part 2A of Investment Adviser’s Form ADV.
2.05
Unless and until revoked by Client, Client hereby delegates to Investment Adviser, and Investment Adviser hereby accepts, all power and authority to vote all proxies with respect to securities held in the Account in accordance with its proxy voting guidelines and procedures in effect from time to time.

In the event that Client instructs Investment Adviser to trade ahead of receipt of sufficient cash or monies into the custody account to settle or arrange for the settlement of the initial transactions on behalf of the Account, such instruction will be treated as a forward dated receivable and Client agrees that it shall bear any charges incurred on the Account, including overdraft charges, trading costs, buy-in fees or any other costs associated with settlement failures, and shall be liable to Investment Adviser for all losses or damages incurred by Investment Adviser as a result of late receipt of the cash or monies into the custody account.

Alternatively, if Investment Adviser determines it is in the best interests of Client not to return the Account to compliance with the Investment Guidelines, Investment Adviser may make a written recommendation to Client on revisions or other appropriate response to the deviation and Investment Adviser shall be entitled to implement its recommendation unless Client directs Investment Adviser to the contrary within a reasonable time, provided that any implementation of such recommendation prior to the receipt of any such contrary direction from Client shall not constitute a breach of the Investment Guidelines.

14.01
Client acknowledges that JPMorgan, including Investment Adviser, performs investment advisory services for various clients.

It is Investment Adviser's policy to allocate investment opportunities among clients over a period of time on a fair and equitable basis. One or more of Investment Adviser’s other client accounts may at any time hold, acquire, increase, decrease, dispose or otherwise deal with positions in investments in which another client account may have an interest from time-to-time. Client agrees that Investment Adviser shall not have any obligations to purchase or sell, or to recommend for purchase or sale, for the Account any security that JPMorgan may purchase or sell for its own accounts or for the account of any other client, if in the opinion of Investment Adviser such transaction or investment appears unsuitable, impractical or undesirable for the Account. Client agrees that JPMorgan may make different investment decisions with respect to each of its clients or for its own account, and that such fact shall not be relied upon by Client or any of its agents or representatives as evidence of a breach of Investment Adviser's duties hereunder. The fact that any bank or non-bank subsidiary of JPMorgan Chase & Co. is selling or providing services to and receiving remuneration from or in connection with a repurchase agreement, investment company, investment trust or other investment product as counterparty, investment advisor, custodian, transfer agent, registrar or otherwise shall not preclude Investment Adviser from investing the assets in the Account in the security.
14.02
Client acknowledges that Investment Adviser may be prevented from dealing in certain securities which are on a banned list. Securities may be recorded on such a list notably because Investment

10


Adviser or its affiliates may be holding non-public price sensitive information on such securities or for regulatory reasons.

Exhibit A – 2


Exhibit B
Brokerage and Execution Services
(a)Investment Adviser will use the execution services of such broker-dealers as it may select from time to time, which will be entitled to compensation for their services, to effect transactions for the purchase and/or sale of securities and other investments by the Account. In connection with transactions effected for the Account, Client authorizes Investment Adviser to establish and trade in accounts in its or the name of the Account with members of national or regional securities exchanges and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, including "omnibus" accounts established for the purpose of combining orders for more than one client. All brokerage and execution services provided or chosen by Investment Adviser shall at all times be subject to the pursuit of and adherence by Investment Adviser to the principles of best execution as set forth in Investment Adviser’s best execution policies and procedures, a copy of which shall be available to Client upon its request, as well as any restrictions or limitations contained in the Investment Guidelines.
(b)Client hereby authorizes Investment Adviser to effect transactions for the Account through affiliated broker-dealers ("Affiliated Broker-Dealers") and the Affiliated Broker-Dealers may retain commissions in connection with effecting such agency transactions for the Account. Client understands that other broker-dealers may be willing to effect transactions for Client at lower commission rates than those charged by Affiliated Broker-Dealers. When executing trades through Affiliated Broker-Dealers, Investment Adviser shall seek to obtain the most favorable terms for Client transactions that are reasonably available under the circumstances and consistent with Investment Adviser’s best execution policies and procedures, a copy of which have been provided or will be provided to Client upon request. If Client's Account is subject to Section 11(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, Client authorizes the Affiliated Broker-Dealers that may be members of a U.S. securities exchange, or have the right to trade on such an exchange, to execute transactions on such exchange for the Account.
(c)In selecting brokers through which transactions for client accounts will be executed, including, but not limited to, Affiliated Broker-Dealers, Investment Adviser's primary consideration will be the broker's ability to provide best execution of trades. In making a decision about best execution (and subject to section 28(e) of the Exchange Act), Investment Adviser may consider a number of factors including, but not limited to, trade price and commission and quality of research services the broker may provide. The commission rates paid to any broker for execution of transactions will be determined through negotiations with the broker, taking into account industry norms for the size and type of transaction and the nature of brokerage and research services provided. Such research services may include, but are not be limited to, analysis and reports concerning economic factors and trends, industries, specific securities and portfolio strategies. Research services furnished by brokers will generally be used in connection with all of Investment Adviser's advisory accounts, although not all such services may be used with any particular account that paid commissions to the brokers providing such services.
(d)Investment Adviser is also hereby authorized to effect “agency cross transactions” (as defined in Rule 206(3)-2 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended) with its Affiliated Broker-Dealers whereby they will act as agent for, and receive

Exhibit B – 1


commissions from, the Account and the party on the other side of the transaction. Client understands that in addition to receiving commissions from both parties, the Affiliated Broker-Dealers may have a potentially conflicting division of loyalties and responsibilities to both parties to the transaction. Client's consent to execute “agency-cross transactions” may be revoked at any time by written notice from Client to Investment Adviser.
(e)Subject to the requirements of applicable law, Investment Adviser may also execute transactions for the Account through an electronic communication network, alternative trading system, or similar execution system or trading venue (collectively, “Trading Platforms”), including Trading Platforms in which Investment Adviser and/or its affiliates may hold a minority interest.


Exhibit B – 2


Exhibit C
Advisory Fee
Annual Fee
Investment Adviser’s annual fee for acting as investment manager of the assets in the Account is as follows:
Tranche
Fee
First $10 million
1.10%
Next $10-$50 Million
1.00%
Next $50-$100 Million
0.75%
Over $100 Million
0.60%


Billing Period
The investment management fee will be calculated as of the last business day of each calendar quarter-end (i.e. March, June, September, December) and billed in arrears.
Fee Calculation Methodology
The market value used for calculating the investment management fee will be based on the average of Investment Adviser’s three month-end market values comprising the billing period.
Cash Flow Prorations
The market value(s) that form(s) the basis for each investment management fee calculation will be adjusted to pro-rate any contributions and withdrawals that occurred during the billing period when the daily sum of such activity exceeds the greater of $1million or 2% of the Account’s market value. For purposes of determining this percentage threshold, each day's contributions and withdrawals will be measured against the immediately preceding month-end market value.
Special Considerations
If applicable, the above investment management fee will be applied against the Account’s total market value, exclusive of mutual fund assets advised by the Investment Adviser. Investments in mutual fund assets advised by Investment Adviser will be subject to the expense ratios in effect for each such fund.
Billing/Payment Method
Immediately following the billing period, Investment Adviser shall provide Client with a fee invoice describing in reasonable detail the manner in which such fees were calculated. Client agrees to pay the fee invoice in full within thirty days of receipt. The fee invoice will be emailed to Client.

(4) To the extent not securities, “financial contracts” entered into for investment purposes or in connection with investments. “Financial contracts” means any arrangement that (a) takes the form of an individually negotiated contract, agreement, or option to buy, sell, lend, swap, or repurchase, or other similar individually negotiated transaction commonly entered into by participants in the financial markets; (b) is in respect of securities, commodities, currencies, interest or other rates, other measures of value, or any other financial or economic interest similar in purpose or function to any of the foregoing; and (c) is entered into in response to a request from a counterparty for a quotation, or is otherwise entered into and structured to accommodate the objectives of the counterparty to such arrangement;
(5) In the case of a client that is a commodity pool operator or an investment company excepted from registration by Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act, any amounts payable to such client pursuant to a firm agreement or similar binding commitment pursuant to which a person has agreed to acquire an interest in, or make Capital Contributions to, the client upon the demand of the client; and
(6) Cash and cash equivalents (including foreign currencies) held for investment purposes. “Cash and cash equivalents” include bank deposits, certificates of deposits, bankers acceptances and similar bank instruments held for investment purposes and the net cash surrender value of an insurance policy.
