5 

5.             Portfolio Transactions and Brokerage.

(a)             The Manager is authorized, in arranging the purchase and sale of the Fund’s publicly-traded portfolio securities, to employ or deal with such members of securities exchanges, brokers or dealers (hereinafter “broker-dealers”), including broker-dealers that are affiliated persons of the Fund or the Manager, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act, as may, in its best judgment, implement the policy of the Fund to obtain the best execution of the Fund’s portfolio transactions.

(b)             The Manager may effect the purchase and sale of securities in private transactions on such terms and conditions as are customary in such transactions, may use a broker to effect said transactions, and may enter into a contract in which the broker acts either as principal or as agent.

(c)             The Manager shall select broker-dealers to effect the Fund’s portfolio transactions on the basis of its estimate of their ability to obtain best execution of particular and related portfolio transactions. The abilities of a broker-dealer to obtain best execution of particular portfolio transaction(s) will be judged by the Manager on the basis of all relevant factors and considerations including, insofar as feasible, the execution capabilities required by the transaction or transactions; the ability and willingness of the broker-dealer to facilitate the Fund’s portfolio transactions by participating therein for its own account; the importance to the Fund of speed, efficiency, or confidentiality; the broker-dealer’s apparent familiarity with sources from or to whom particular securities might be purchased or sold; as well as any other matters relevant to the selection of a broker-dealer for particular and related transactions of the Fund. Subject to such policies as the Trustees may determine, the Manager shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Management Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of its having caused the Fund to pay a broker or dealer that provides brokerage and research services to the Manager an amount of commission for effecting a portfolio investment transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Manager determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Manager’s overall responsibilities with respect to the Fund and to other clients of the Manager as to which the Manager exercises investment discretion.

(d)             In any case where a Subadviser has been retained in respect of some or all of the assets of the Fund as contemplated by Section 9 below, the Manager shall report periodically to the Board of Trustees as to the brokerage activities of the Subadviser in respect of the Fund, at such times and in such format as the Board of Trustees may reasonably specify.

6.             Duration.

Unless terminated earlier pursuant to Section 7 hereof, this Management Agreement shall remain in effect until two years from the date first above written. Thereafter it shall continue in effect from year to year, so long as such continuance shall be approved at least annually by the Trust’s Board of Trustees or by the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, and in either case by a majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not parties to this Management Agreement or interested persons of any such party cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

6 

7.             Termination and Amendment.

This Management Agreement shall terminate automatically upon its assignment; it may also be terminated without penalty: (i) at any time for cause or by agreement of the parties or (ii) by either party upon sixty days’ written notice to the other party.

This Management Agreement may be amended at any time by mutual consent of the parties, provided that such consent on the part of the Fund shall have been approved by the vote of the majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not parties to this Management Agreement or interested persons of any such party cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and by the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, if such approval is required by the 1940 Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

8.             Standard of Care; Limitation of Liability; Reliance; etc.

(a)             Standard of Care. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Management Agreement, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence on the part of the Manager, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder, the Manager, including its officers, directors, and partners, shall not be subject to any liability to the Trust or the Fund, or to any shareholder, officer, director, partner, or Trustee thereof, for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder.

(b)             Legal Advice. On issues that are legal in nature, the Manager will be entitled to receive and act upon the advice of legal counsel of its own selection, which can be counsel for the Trust, and will be without liability for any action taken or thing done or omitted to be done in accordance with this Management Agreement in good faith conformity with such advice.

(c)             Good Faith Reliance. The Manager will be protected and not be liable, and will be indemnified and held harmless, for any action reasonably taken or omitted to be taken by it in its capacity as investment adviser in reasonable reliance upon any document, certificate, or instrument which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons.

(d)             Damages. Notwithstanding anything in this Management Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Manager or the Trust be liable to the other, or to any third party, for special, punitive or consequential damages arising, directly or indirectly from this Management Agreement, even if said party has been advised by the other party of the possibility of such damages.

(e)             Acts of God. In the event either party is unable to perform its obligations under the terms of this Management Agreement, despite having taken commercially reasonable precautions, because of acts of God, interruption of electrical power or other utilities, equipment or transmission failure or damage reasonably beyond its control, or other causes reasonably beyond its control, such party shall not be liable to the other for any damages resulting from such failure to perform or otherwise from such causes. The Manager and the Trust shall notify each other as soon as reasonably possible following the occurrence of an event described in this subsection.

9.             Investment Subadvisory Contracts.

(a)  Subject to the provisions of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust and the 1940 Act, the Manager, at its expense, may, in its discretion, subject to approval by the Trust’s Board of Trustees and, if required by applicable law, the Trust’s shareholders, select and contract with one or more Subadvisers for the Fund with respect to all or a portion of the Fund’s assets. If the Manager retains a Subadviser hereunder, then unless otherwise provided in the applicable subadvisory agreement, the Subadviser (and not the Manager) shall have the obligation (as to the portion of the Fund’s assets for which it acts as subadviser) of furnishing continuously an investment program and determining which securities will be purchased or sold for the Fund, and what portion may be held uninvested, and placing all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities for the Fund and selecting broker-dealers in connection therewith.

7 

(b)  The Manager will be responsible for payment of all compensation to any Subadviser and other persons and entities to which Manager delegates any duties hereunder.

(c)  The Manager’s obligations to a Fund in respect of the performance by any Subadviser of its obligations in respect of the Fund shall be only those obligations set out in Section 2(b) of this Management Agreement and the applicable subadvisory agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Manager shall have no liability to the Fund or any of its shareholders or to any other person for the failure or refusal of any Subadviser to perform its obligations in respect of the Fund, including without limitation any mistake or error of judgment on the part of the Subadviser or any employee or agent of the Subadviser or any failure by the Subadviser to comply with applicable law, the applicable subadvisory agreement, any investment objective or policies of the Fund, or any instructions from the Board of Trustees or the Manager.
