For purposes of verifying the identity of a Customer, GFS may rely on documents, so long as, based on that information, GFS can form a reasonable belief that it knows the identity of the Customer, including: · an individual’s unexpired government-issued identification evidencing nationality or residence and bearing a photograph or similar safeguard, (such as a driver’s license or passport); or · documents showing the existence of an entity, such as articles of incorporation, a government-issued business license, a partnership agreement, or trust instrument. To the extent that the Customer’s identity cannot be verified by relying on documents, other methods may be used by GFS, including, (i) contacting a Customer; (ii) independently verifying the Customer’s identity through the comparison of information provided by the Customer with information obtained from a consumer reporting agency, public database, or other source; (iii) checking references with other financial institutions; and (iv) obtaining a financial statement. In the event that GFS is not able to verify the identity of a Customer sufficiently that it can form a reasonable belief that it knows the true identity of a Customer, then GFS may, as appropriate: · not open an account for the Customer; · apply limited terms under which a Customer may use an account until the Customer’s identity is verified; · close an account, after attempts to verify a Customer’s identity have failed; or · assist the Fund in filing a Suspicious Activity Report in accordance with applicable law and regulation, regarding the Customer. Each Fund represents and agrees that it will provide Customers with adequate notice that the Fund is requesting information to verify their identities. The notice will be included in the application or the prospectus, or a document accompanying the application or prospectus provided it is reasonably designed to ensure that the customer views or otherwise receives the notice before opening the account. In consideration of the performance of the duties by GFS pursuant to this Section, the Trust agrees to pay GFS for the reasonable administrative expenses that may be associated with such additional duties.:
