Broker Selection Sample Clauses

Broker Selection. The Sub-Adviser will select brokers, dealers, futures commission merchants and other counterparties to effect all transactions for the Fund, including without limitation, with respect to transactions in securities, derivatives, foreign currency exchange, commodities and/or any other investments. The Sub-Adviser will place all orders with brokers, dealers, counterparties or issuers, and will negotiate brokerage commissions, spreads and other financial and non-financial terms, as applicable. The Sub-Adviser will always seek the best possible price and execution in the circumstances in all transactions. Subject to the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser is directed at all times to seek to execute transactions for the Fund in accordance with its trading policies, as disclosed by the Sub-Adviser to the Fund from time to time, but in all cases subject to policies and practices established by the Fund and described in the Trust’s registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser may pay a broker-dealer that provides research and brokerage services a higher spread or commission for a particular transaction than otherwise might have been charged by another broker-dealer to the extent permitted by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and by the Trust’s registration statement, if the Sub-Adviser determines that the higher spread or commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services that such broker-dealer provides, viewed in terms of either the particular transaction or the Sub-Adviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to accounts managed by the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser may use for the benefit of the Sub-Adviser’s other clients, or make available to companies affiliated with the Sub-Adviser or to its directors for the benefit of its clients, any such brokerage and research services that the Sub-Adviser obtains from brokers or dealers.

Broker Selection. To the extent provided in the Registration Statement, and in accordance with applicable law and applicable policies and procedures of the Sub-Adviser, as approved by the Board (the “Sub-Adviser Procedures”), the Sub-Adviser shall, in the name of the Fund, place orders for the execution of portfolio transactions for the Allocated Portion, when applicable, with or through such brokers, dealers or other financial institutions described in Section 2(e) hereof. The Sub-Adviser shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the best execution and efficient execution on all portfolio transactions executed in respect of the Allocated Portion. The Sub-Adviser may, to the extent permissible by Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and consistent with applicable Sub-Adviser Procedures, consider, among other things, the financial responsibility, research and investment information, and other services provided by brokers or dealers who may effect or be a party to any such transaction or to other transactions to which other clients of the Sub-Adviser may be a party. On occasions when the Sub-Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a Commodity Interest to be in the best interest of the Fund as well as other clients of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser may, in accordance with applicable law and any relevant Sub-Adviser Procedures, aggregate the Commodity Interests to be so purchased or sold with other orders for other clients of the Sub-Adviser in order to obtain best execution. In such event, allocation of the Commodity Interests so purchased or sold, as well as of the fees and expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Sub-Adviser consistent with the Sub-Advisers Procedures and in the manner it considers to be equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other clients. On an ongoing basis, at such times as the Adviser or the Board shall request, the Sub-Adviser will provide a written report to the Adviser and the Board, in a form reasonably agreed between the Sub-Adviser and the Adviser, summarizing (i) the brokerage details with respect to transactions executed by the Sub-Adviser for the Allocated Portion and

Broker Selection. The Client hereby directs that transactions for the Account should be executed through a Broker/Dealer that will be appointed and hereby promises to notify the Investment Adviser of such appointment in writing. In selecting a Broker/Dealer, the Client has the sole responsibility for negotiating commission rates and other transaction costs with a Broker/Dealer. Although the Client will selected a Broker/Dealer, the Client acknowledges the Investment Advisor will not be required to effect any transaction through a Broker/Dealer if the Investment Advisor reasonably believes that such action may result in a breach of its duties as a fiduciary. The Client understands that by instructing the Investment Advisor to execute all transactions on behalf of the Investment Account through a Broker/Dealer, a disparity may exist between the commissions borne by the Account and the commissions borne by the Investment Advisor’s other clients that do not direct the Investment Advisor to use a particular Broker-Dealer. The Client also understands that by instructing the Investment Advisor to execute all transactions on behalf of the Account through a Broker/Dealer, the Client may not necessarily obtain commission rates and execution as favorable as those that would be obtained if the Investment Advisor was able to place transactions with other broker-dealers. The Client also may forego benefits that the Investment Advisor may be able to obtain for its other clients through, for example, negotiating volume discounts or block trades.

Broker Selection. Stock Management LLC and its related persons do not have the authority to determine the broker or dealer to be used or the commission rates paid. The broker is established at the time the account is opened and funded. Clients may specify the broker to be used, but are advised that a discount broker is recommended, such as Schwab, Fidelity or Scottrade, which allow appropriate management of client accounts and have reasonable fees. No broker is paid extra commissions in recognition of the value of services provided, unless the client has specifically requested the more expensive brokerage agreement. In such a case, no portion would go to Stock Management LLC. The custodian shall at all times be responsible for the physical custody of all assets held in such custodianship, and for the collection of interest, dividends and other income attributable thereof. Stock Management LLC shall have no liability for any acts or omissions of any custodian or administrator.

Broker Selection. In selecting the brokers to effect the portfolio transactions for the Fund, the Adviser shall give primary consideration to securing the most favorable price and efficient execution. Certain brokers also provide investment research and analysis and such brokers may execute brokerage transactions at a higher cost to the Fund. The Fund recognizes the value of investment research and analysis and therefore authorizes the Adviser to pay higher brokerage commissions to brokers who provide such research and analyses, subject to the review by the Fund’s trustees from time to time. It is understood that the investment research and analysis provided by such brokers may be useful to the Adviser in connection with its services to other clients. When the Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of the Fund and other clients, the Adviser, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may aggregate the security to be purchased or sold in order to obtain the most favorable price and efficient execution. In such event, the Adviser will allocate the securities so purchased or sold and the expenses incurred in the transaction, in the manner it considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to the Fund and to such other clients.

Broker Selection. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has a process for the selection of brokers, with whom it executes client orders, and brokers, with whom it places client orders for execution.

State Street shall fully comply with the written instructions, if of a continuing nature, until revoked.
