Expense Limitation As part of the consideration for the Fund entering into this Agreement, the Manager hereby agrees to limit the aggregate expenses of every character incurred by the Fund, including but not limited to Fees of the Manager computed as hereinabove set forth, but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage, and other expenditures which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and extraordinary expenses (“Manager Limitation”). Under the Manager Limitation, the Manager agrees that through a certain date (“Certain Date”), such expenses shall not exceed a certain level of the average daily net assets of the Fund (“Expense Limitation”). To determine the Manager’s liability for the Fund’s expenses over the Expense Limitation, the amount of allowable year-to-date expenses shall be computed daily by prorating the Expense Limitation based on the number of days elapsed within the fiscal year of the Fund, or limitation period, if shorter (“Prorated Limitation”). The Prorated Limitation shall be compared to the expenses of the Fund recorded through the prior day in order to produce the allowable expenses to be recorded for the current day (“Allowable Expenses”). If the Fund’s Management Fee and other expenses for the current day exceed the Allowable Expenses, the Management Fee for the current day shall be reduced by such excess (“Unaccrued Fees”). In the event the excess exceeds the amount due as the Management Fee, the Manager shall be responsible to the Fund for the additional excess (“Other Expenses Exceeding Limit”). If at any time up through and including the Certain date, the Fund’s Management Fee and other expenses for the current day are less than the Allowable Expenses, the differential shall be due to the Manager as payment of cumulative Unaccrued Fees (if any) or as payment for cumulative Other Expenses Exceeding Limit (if any). If cumulative Unaccrued Fees or cumulative Other Expenses Exceeding Limit remain at the Certain Date, these amounts shall be paid to the Manager in the future provided that: (1) no such payment shall be made to the Manager after a two year reimbursement period following the Certain Date; and (2) such payment shall only be made to the extent that it does not result in the Fund’s aggregate expenses exceeding the Expense Limitation. The Manager may voluntarily agree to an additional expense limitation (any such additional expense limitation hereinafter referred to as an “Additional Expense Limitation”), at the same or a different level and for the same or a different period of time beyond the Certain Date (any such additional period being hereinafter referred to an as “Additional Period”) provided, however, that: (1) the calculations and methods of payment shall be as described above; (2) no payment for cumulative Unaccrued Fees or cumulative Other Expenses Exceeding Limit shall be made to the Manager more than two years after the end of the Additional Period; and (3) payment for cumulative Unaccrued Fees or cumulative Other Expenses Exceeding Limit after the expiration of the Additional Period shall only be made to the extent it does not result in the Fund’s aggregate expenses exceeding the Additional Expense Limitation to which the unpaid amounts relate.
Transition Period Due to the nature of our purchasing process, the District often requires an existing service provider to continue to provide goods and/or services while the District is in the process of advertising, evaluating, and awarding a contract for the provision of the same goods and/or services in the future. To accommodate this process, the Contractor shall agree to maintain the same terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for a period up to ninety (90) days after the automatic termination of this Agreement at the end of its term, if requested by the District, as a transition period. In addition, if the Contractor is not the successful bidder for a future solicitation for the same or similar services, he or she shall agree to provide the same goods and/or services provided in this Agreement for a period up to ninety (90) days to allow for an orderly transition to the new provider. The District and the Contractor may mutually agree to a longer transition period.
