The Code of Ethics applies to each Registered Investment Company or Private Fund Client or series thereof (each of which is considered to be a Company for this purpose) for which any of the Companies listed above presently or hereafter provides investment advisory or principal underwriting services, other than a money market fund or a fund that does not invest in Securities.

INTRODUCTION

This Code of Ethics establishes rules of conduct for persons who are associated with the companies named above or with the registered investment companies for which such companies provide investment advisory or principal underwriter services. The Code governs their personal investment and other investment-related activities.

The basic rule is very simple: we all have a fiduciary duty to put the client’s interests first. In particular, you are reminded that investment opportunities must be offered first to clients before the firms or staff may act on them. This is one of the important objectives that the procedures set forth in this Code are intended to accomplish. The rest of the rules elaborate this principle. Some of the rules are imposed specifically by law. For example, the laws that govern investment advisers specifically prohibit fraudulent activity, making statements that are not true or that are misleading or omit something that is significant in the context and engaging in manipulative practices. These are general words, of course, and over the years the courts, the regulators and investment advisers have interpreted these words and established codes of conduct for their employees and others who have access to their investment decisions and trading activities. Indeed, the rules obligate investment advisers to adopt written rules that are reasonably designed to prevent the illegal activities described above and must follow procedures that will enable them to prevent such activities.

The purpose of this Code is to reinforce and enhance the long-standing commitment of the firms to the highest standards of ethical business conduct. Our business depends on our reputation for integrity and principled business conduct, and this reputation, in turn, depends on the day-to-day actions of every staff member. Accordingly, we must avoid conflicts of interest, which may occur when your private interests interfere in any way, or


Revised: March 9, 2017		S-1		INTERNAL USE ONLY

even appear to interfere, with the interests of the firms or its clients. A conflict situation can arise when you take actions or have interests that make it difficult for you to perform your work objectively and effectively. Your obligation to conduct the firms’ business in an ethical manner includes the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and business relationships, including full disclosure of such conflicts. Each staff member is responsible for conducting himself in a lawful, honest and ethical manner at all times, and in accordance with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to our business, including this Code and all other internal policies and procedures adopted by the firms.

This Code is intended to assist the companies in fulfilling their obligations under the law. The first part lays out who the Code applies to, the second part deals with personal investment activities, the third part deals with other sensitive business practices, and subsequent parts deal with reporting and administrative procedures.

The Code is very important to the Companies and their staff members. Violations can not only cause the Companies embarrassment, loss of business, legal restrictions, fines, and other punishments, but for staff members, can lead to demotion, suspension, firing, ejection from the securities business, and very large fines.

I.	APPLICABILITY

The Code applies to each of the following:

The Companies named or described at the top of page one of the Code and all entities that are under common management with these Companies or otherwise agree to be subject to the Code (“Affiliates”). A listing of the Affiliates, which is periodically updated, is attached as Exhibit A.

Any officer, director or employee of any Company, Affiliate or Fund Client (as defined below) whose job regularly involves him in the investment process. This includes the formulation and making of investment recommendations and decisions, the purchase and sale of securities for Clients and the utilization of information about investment recommendations, decisions and trades. Due to the manner in which the Companies and the Affiliates conduct their business, every employee should assume that he is subject to 1 the Code unless the Compliance Officer specifies otherwise.¹

¹	Consultants, interns and part-time employees are subject to the restrictions and reporting requirements of personal investment activities promulgated under the Code.


Revised: March 9, 2017		S-2		INTERNAL USE ONLY

With respect to all of the Companies, Affiliates and Fund Clients, any natural person who Controls any of the Companies, Affiliates or Fund Clients and who obtains information regarding the Companies’ or the Affiliates’ investment recommendations or decisions. However, a person whose Control arises only as a result of his official position with such entity is excluded. Disinterested directors of Fund Clients and Independent Directors, for example, are excluded from coverage under this item.

As an exception, the Code does not apply to any director, officer or employee of any Fund Client (such as certain of The Teton Westwood Funds) with respect to which the Companies’ services do not involve the formulation or making of investment recommendations or decisions or the execution of portfolio transactions if that person is also a director, officer or employee of any entity that does perform such services (such as Westwood Management Corp.). These individuals are covered by codes of ethics adopted by such entities.

Definitions

Access Persons. The (i) Companies, (ii) the persons described in items (A)2 and (A)3 above and (iii) such person’s Immediate Family, other than those excluded by item (A)4 above.

Access Person Account. Other than Client Accounts, includes all advisory, brokerage, trust or other accounts over which one or more Access Persons has (i) a substantial proportionate economic interest or (ii) Control. Control is defined as having investment and/or trade discretion over the account.

A substantial proportionate economic interest will generally be 25% of the equity in the account in the case of any single Access Person or 25% of the equity in the account in the case of all Access Persons in the aggregate. Interests in Private Fund Clients and similar indirect means of ownership of underlying securities shall also be treated as Access Person Accounts for purposes of this Code.¹

¹	Affiliated Mutual Funds shall not be treated as Access Person Accounts for purposes of this Code.

Because there are investment limitations imposed by the Investment Company Act over the investment activity of Affiliated Mutual Funds, the firms take the positions that the indirect benefit potentially gained by an Access Person through the trading activity of these Clients to the potential detriment of other Clients of the firms is sufficiently mitigated. In addition, the firms have determined that the risk to other investors in Affiliated Mutual Funds caused by subjecting these Clients to the trading restrictions imposed by this


Revised: March 9, 2017		S-3		INTERNAL USE ONLY

As an exception, accounts in which one or more Access Persons and/or their immediate family have a substantial proportionate interest which are managed by an investment adviser who has no affiliation with the Companies and with respect to which no Access Person has, in the judgment of the Compliance Officer after reviewing the terms and circumstances, any direct or indirect influence or control over the investment or portfolio execution process, are not Access Person Accounts, but nonetheless, are reportable under Section IV below.

As a further exception, subject to the provisions of Article II(I)7, bona fide market making accounts of G.research, LLC are not Access Person Accounts.

As a further exception, subject to the provisions of Article II(I)7, bona fide error accounts of the Companies and the Affiliates are not Access Person Accounts.

Affiliated Mutual Funds. Registered open-end investment companies or series thereof advised or sub-advised by any of the Companies or their Affiliates.

Associate Portfolio Managers. Access Persons who are engaged in securities research and analysis for designated Clients or are responsible for investment recommendations for designated Clients but who are not principally responsible for investment decisions with respect to any Client accounts.

Clients. Investment advisory accounts maintained with any of the Companies or Affiliates by any person, other than Access Person Accounts. However, Fund Clients covered by item (A)(5) above are considered Client accounts only with respect to employees specifically identified by the Compliance Officer as having regular information regarding investment recommendations or decisions or portfolio transactions for such Fund Clients.

Client Accounts. Shall mean accounts of Clients (i) that are Controlled by an Access Person and (ii) in which no Access Person has a substantial proportionate economic interest; provided that, the Client pays a management, advisory or any other similar arms-

Code outweigh the risks to other Clients of the firms that the firms will seek to benefit the Access Person to the detriment of the firms’ other Clients. In addition, subject to the review of the Chief Compliance Officer, market making accounts controlled by G.research, LLC and error accounts of Access Persons shall not be deemed Access Person Accounts for purposes of this Code.


Revised: March 9, 2017		S-4		INTERNAL USE ONLY

length fee to the Access Person and the beneficiary of the Client Account is not an Immediate Family member of an Access Person.

Companies. The companies named or described at the top of page one of the Code.

12.

Independent Directors. A director of any of the Companies or Affiliates, other than an investment advisor to a Fund Client, who would not be an “interested person” of any of such entities under Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 but for the fact that he serves as such a director and may own beneficially securities of any such entity constituting less than 5% of the voting securities thereof and may be an associated person of or own securities in a broker-dealer or parent company thereof and who does not have any involvement in the day-to-day activities of any of the Companies or Fund Clients.

13.

Minor Children. A child, whether natural or via adoption, of an Access Person, under the age of twenty-one years.

14.

Minor Descendants. Direct descendants of an Access Person, whether natural or via adoption, under the age of twenty-one years.

Revised: March 9, 2017		S-5		INTERNAL USE ONLY

17.

Security. Any financial instrument treated as a security for investment purposes and any related instrument such as a futures, forward or swap contract entered into with respect to one or more securities, a basket of or an index of securities or components of securities. However, the term security does not include securities issued by the Government of the United States, bankers’ acceptances, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper and high quality short-term debt instruments, including repurchase agreements, or shares of registered open-end investment companies. Shares of affiliated registered open-end investment companies are not securities but are subject to special rules under this Code.

RESTRICTIONS ON PERSONAL INVESTING ACTIVITIES

Basic Restriction on Investing Activities

If a purchase or sale order is pending or under active consideration for any Client Account by any Company or Affiliate, neither the same Security nor any related Security (such as an option, warrant, right, futures contract or convertible security) may be bought or sold for any Access Person Account.

Revised: March 9, 2017		S-9		INTERNAL USE ONLY

Pre-Clearance Process

No Securities may be purchased or sold for any Access Person Account unless the particular transaction has been approved in writing by the Compliance Officer or, in his absence, the General Counsel of GAMCO Investors, Inc., Associated Capital Group, Inc. or their designees; or via an automated Compliance pre-clearance system. The Compliance Officer or a designee shall review reports from the trading desk (or, if applicable, confirmations from brokers) to assure that all transactions effected for Access Person Accounts are effected in compliance with this Code.

No Securities may be purchased or sold for any Access Person Account other than through the trading desk of G.research, LLC, unless express permission is granted by the Compliance Officer. Such permission may be granted only on the condition that the third party broker supply the Compliance Officer, on a timely basis, duplicate copies of confirmations of all personal Securities transactions for such Access Person in the accounts maintained with such third party broker and copies of periodic statements for all such accounts.

A Trading Approval Form, attached as Exhibit B, must be completed and submitted to the Compliance Officer or a designee for approval prior to entry of an order.

After reviewing the proposed trade, the level of potential investment interest on behalf of Clients in the Security in question and the Companies’ restricted lists, the Compliance Officer shall approve (or disapprove) a trading order on behalf of an Access Person as expeditiously as possible. The Compliance Officer will generally approve transactions described in paragraph (G) above unless the Security in question or a related security is on the Restricted List or the Compliance Officer believes for any other reason that the Access Person Account should not trade in such Security at such time.

Once an Access Person’s Trading Approval Form is approved, the form must be forwarded to the trading desk (or, if a third party broker is permitted, to the Compliance Officer) for execution on the same day. If the Access Person’s trading order request is not approved, or is not executed on the same day it is approved, the clearance lapses although such trading order request may be resubmitted at a later date.


Revised: March 9, 2017		S-10		INTERNAL USE ONLY

In the absence of the Compliance Officer, an Access Person may submit his or her Trading Approval Form to the General Counsel of GAMCO Investors, Inc., Associated Capital Group, Inc. or a designee; or via an automated Compliance pre-clearance system. Trading approval for the Compliance Officer must be obtained from the General Counsel, and trading approval for the General Counsel must be obtained from the Compliance Officer or a designee. In no case will the Trading Desk accept an order for an Access Person Account unless it is accompanied by a signed Trading Approval Form; or a Trading Approval Form generated by an automated Compliance pre-clearance system that approves the trade.

The Compliance Officer shall review all Trading Approval Forms, all initial, quarterly and annual disclosure certifications and the trading activities on behalf of all Client accounts with a view to ensuring that all Covered Persons are complying with the spirit as well as the detailed requirements of this Code. The Compliance Officer will review all transactions in the market making accounts of G.research, LLC. and the error accounts of the Companies and the Affiliates in order to ensure that such transactions are bona fide market making or error transactions or are conducted in accordance with the requirements of this Article II.

Report submitted by:

Print Name

This transaction report (the “Report”) is submitted pursuant to Section IV (B) of the Code of Ethics of the Companies and supplies information with respect to transactions in any Security or Affiliated Mutual Fund in which you, or an Access Person, may be deemed to have, or by reason of such transaction acquire, any direct or indirect beneficial ownership interest, and with respect to accounts established by you, or an Access Person, in which any Securities or Affiliated Mutual Funds were held for your direct or indirect benefit, or for the benefit of an Access Person, for the period specified below¹. If you were not employed by or affiliated with us during this entire period, amend the dates specified below to cover your period of employment or affiliation.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all terms used in the Report shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Code of Ethics.

If you have no reportable transactions or new accounts, sign and return this page only. If you have reportable transactions or new accounts, complete, sign and return page two only and include any attachments.

Every employee is considered an Access Person and is therefore subject to the Firms’ Code of Ethics. Access Person Accounts, which exclude client accounts, include all advisory, brokerage, trust or other accounts or forms of direct beneficial ownership in which one or more Access Persons and/or one or more members of an Access Person’s immediate family have a substantial proportionate economic interest or control. “Immediate family” is defined as your spouse and minor descendants. With respect to accounts for the benefit of minor descendants who are not also minor children, any account that you control. Minor children is any child, whether natural or via adoption, of an Access Person, under the age of twenty-one years. A substantial proportionate economic interest will generally be 25% of the equity in the account in the case of any single Access Person or 25% of the equity in the account in the case of all Access Persons in the aggregate. Interests in investment partnerships and similar indirect means of ownership of underlying securities shall also be treated as Access Person Accounts for purposes of this Code.

I HAD NO REPORTABLE SECURITIES OR AFFILIATED MUTUAL FUND TRANSACTIONS OR ACCOUNTS ESTABLISHED DURING THE PREVIOUS CALENDAR QUARTER. I CERTIFY THAT I AM FULLY FAMILIAR WITH THE CODE OF ETHICS AND THAT, TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, THE INFORMATION FURNISHED IN THIS REPORT IS TRUE AND CORRECT.

Managed Accounts:

When the personal account of an access person is managed by a third party, or in the case of a trust where an access person is the grantor or beneficiary that provides a trustee with management authority over the trust, the access person should not, in any way, directly or indirectly have influence or control over the personal account/trust.

Please certify to one of the following:

☐	I do NOT have any accounts managed by a third party or trustee.³

☐	I do have account(s) managed by a third party or trustee and I do NOT have trade or investment discretion over the account(s). I did not direct, suggest or consult a third party or trustee to make any purchases or sales of securities in the account(s) or trust during the previous calendar quarter.³

☐

I do have account(s) managed by a third party or trustee and I have investment and/or trade discretion over at least one of the accounts or trusts and did direct, suggest or consult the manager to make purchases or sales of securities in the account(s) or trust(s) during the previous calendar quarter.³

A hedge fund would be considered an account managed by a third party if it is managed as a separate account, but would not apply if you are one of other limited partners. An investment in a mutual fund managed by a third party would not apply because it is not solely for your benefit.

If you have an account or trust that was not previously disclosed, please list the details in the “New Accounts Established” section above and contact the Legal/Compliance department immediately.

I CERTIFY THAT I AM FULLY FAMILIAR WITH THE CODE OF ETHICS AND THAT, TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, THE INFORMATION IN THIS REPORT IS TRUE AND CORRECT FOR THE PREVIOUS CALENDAR QUARTER.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP

For purposes of the attached Code of Ethics, “beneficial ownership” shall be interpreted in the same manner as it would be in determining whether a person is subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder, except the determination of direct or indirect beneficial ownership shall apply to all securities that a Covered Person has or acquires. The term “beneficial ownership” of securities would include not only ownership of securities held be a Covered Person for his own benefit, whether in bearer form or registered in his name or otherwise, but also ownership of securities held for his benefit by others (regardless of whether or how they are registered) such as custodians, brokers, executors, administrators, or trustees (including trusts in which he has only a remainder interest), and securities held for his account by pledges, securities owned by a partnership in which he is a member if he or she may exercise a controlling influence over the purchase, sale of voting of such securities, and securities owned by any corporation or similar entry in which he or she owns securities if the shareholder is a control-ling shareholder of the entity and has or shares investment control over the entity’s portfolio.

Ordinarily, this term would not include securities held by executors or administrators in estates in which a Covered Person is a legatee or beneficiary unless there is a specified legacy to such person of such securities or such person is the sole legatee or beneficiary and there are other assets in the estate sufficient to pay debts ranking ahead of such legacy, or the securities are held in the estate more than a year after the decedent’s death.

Securities held in the name of another should be considered as beneficially owned by a Covered Person where such person enjoys “financial benefits substantially equivalent to ownership.” The Securities and Exchange Commission has said that, although the final determination of beneficial ownership is a question to be determined in the light of the facts of the particular case, generally a person is regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of his or her spouse and their minor children. Absent special circumstances such relationship ordinarily results in such person obtaining financial benefits substantially equivalent to ownership, e.g., application of the income derived from such securities to maintain a common home, or to meet expenses that such person otherwise would meet from other sources, or the ability to exercises a controlling influence over the purchase, sale or voting of such securities.

A Covered Person also may be regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of another person, if by reason of any contract, understanding, relationship, agreement, or other agreement, he obtains therefrom financial benefits substantially equivalent to those of ownership.

A Covered Person also is regarded as the beneficial owner of securities held in the name of a spouse, minor children or other person, even though he or she does not obtain therefrom the aforementioned benefits of ownership, if he or she can vest or re-vest title in himself at once or at some future time.
