TERMS:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and each of the Parties hereto intending to be legally bound, it is agreed as follows:

1. Fee Waiver. 

(a) Alpha Architect 1-3 Month Box ETF. The Adviser agrees to waive receipt of its management fees and/or assume expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses of the Fund (excluding payments under the Fund’s Rule 12b-1 distribution and service plan (if any), brokerage expenses, taxes (including tax-related services), interest (including borrowing costs), litigation expense (including class action-related services) and other non-routine or extraordinary expenses) do not exceed 0.1949% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.

The level of the fee waiver described above may only be modified by a majority vote of the “non-interested” trustees of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act). 

2. Recoupment. There shall be no recoupment of any waived fees or expenses by the Adviser.

3. Term and Termination. This Waiver Agreement shall, with respect to the Fund, commence on the Fund’s launch date and remain in effect for at least one year (the “Effective Period”). This Waiver Agreement shall automatically terminate with respect to the Fund upon termination of the Advisory Agreement with respect to the Fund. The Board of Trustees of the Trust, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Waiver Agreement after the Effective Period only by a majority vote of the “non-interested” trustees of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act).

4. Entire Agreement; Modification; Amendment. This Waiver Agreement constitutes the complete understanding and agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior communications with respect thereto. Each provision herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the enforceability of any such other provision or agreement. No modification or amendment of this Waiver Agreement shall be binding unless in writing and executed by the Parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Waiver Agreement to be executed as of the date first written above.
