In using its best efforts to obtain the most favorable price and execution available, the Subadviser, bearing in mind the Trust’s best interests at all times, shall consider all factors it deems relevant, including by way of illustration, price, the size of the transaction, the nature of the market for the security, the amount of the commission, the timing of the transaction taking into account market prices and trends, the reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker involved and the quality of service rendered by the broker in other transactions. Subject to such policies as the Board of Trustees may determine, the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of its having caused a Portfolio to pay a broker that provides brokerage and research services to the Subadviser an amount of commission for effecting a portfolio investment transaction in excess of the amount of commission another broker would have charged for effecting that transaction if the Subadviser 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, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Subadviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to the Trust and to other clients of the Subadviser as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In no instance will portfolio securities of any Portfolio be purchased from or sold to the Subadviser or any affiliated person of the Subadviser. The Trust agrees that any entity or person associated with the Manager or the Subadviser which is a member of a national securities exchange is authorized to effect any transaction on such exchange for the account of the Trust which is permitted by Section 11(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and the Trust has consented to the retention of compensation for such transactions in accordance with Rule 11a2-2(T)(a)(2)(iv).
