Loan Facility.

(a) Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 6 hereof, the Bank may, in its sole discretion, lend and relend to one or more Borrowing Funds, during the period from the Effective Date to the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date, or (ii) the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of the applicable Borrowing Fund or Borrowing Funds, unless waived in a writing signed by the Bank, such amounts as the Trust may from time to time request for such Borrowing Fund hereunder (each individually a “Loan” and collectively, the “Loans”) up to an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed either the Borrowing Fund Limit for each such Borrowing Fund or the Maximum Amount. If the aggregate amount of Loans made to any Borrowing Fund hereunder and outstanding at any one time exceeds such limits, then such Borrowing Fund shall immediately repay a sufficient amount of the Loans owing from such Borrowing Fund to bring the outstanding Loan amount within such limits. The proceeds of Loans may only be used by the Borrowing Funds for short term liquidity in connection with shareholder redemptions permitted under the Fund Statement and the Prospectus. Because of such limited usage, it is contemplated by both parties hereto that this facility shall consist of Loans due in forty-five (45) Business Days.

This Agreement does not establish a commitment or obligation of the Bank to lend money to any Borrowing Fund hereunder. The decision of whether or not to make any Loan shall be made by the Bank in its sole and absolute discretion. As noted above, it is contemplated by both parties hereto that this facility shall consist of (a) an initial Loan due in forty-five (45) Business Days, as to which the Bank may, but is not obligated to, relend to a Borrowing Fund prepaid amounts up to the applicable Borrowing Fund Limit during such terms, followed by (b) additional Loans up to such Borrowing Fund Limit with identical forty-five (45) Business Day repayment terms. For purposes of clarity, any second or additional Loans to the same Borrowing Fund allowed by the Bank during the 45-Business Day term of an outstanding Loan is due at the same time as such outstanding Loan (i.e. at the end of its 45 -Business Day period).

(b)

Evidence of Indebtedness.

(i) The Bank shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of each Borrower to the Bank resulting from each Loan made by the Bank from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Bank from time to time hereunder.

(ii) The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2(b)(i) shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded; provided that the failure of the Bank to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to pay such Borrower’s Obligations in accordance with their terms.

(iii) In the future, the Bank may request that its Loans be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit D, attached hereto and made a part hereof (as such note may be extended, amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, and together with any one or more notes which may be issued in exchange for such note, a “Note”). In such event, the Trust, not individually, but solely on behalf of each Borrowing Fund, shall prepare, execute, and deliver to the Bank such a Note payable to the order of the Bank. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times be represented by such Note payable to the order of the Bank, except to the extent that the Bank subsequently returns such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced as described in Section 2(b)(i).

(iv) Each Borrowing Fund, solely as to itself and not as to any other Borrowing Fund, authorizes the Bank to charge any account of such Borrowing Fund at the Bank (regardless of and including all account numbers related to such Borrowing Fund) or charge or increase any loan balance of such Borrowing Fund for the amount of any payments due to the Bank hereunder from such Borrowing Fund.

(c) Loan Requests. The Trust, on behalf of a Borrowing Fund, shall notify, by written notice or e-mail in the form of Exhibit F, attached hereto and made a part hereof (each such notice, a “Loan Request”), to such person at the Bank as the Bank may, from time to time, instruct the Trust, by 2:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on each day on which the Trust desires that a Fund obtain a Loan hereunder, which day must be a Business Day, specifying the amount of the Loan desired and the Fund borrowing the Loan. Any such e-mail shall be only from the confirmed e-mail address of an Authorized Officer who is an executive officer of the Trust (or other person designated by such an Authorized Officer as authorized to request advances and direct repayments under the Loan Agreement) and include approval by such Authorized Officer (or such other authorized person) of an attached Loan Request (whether or not signed, and if not signed being deemed to incorporate as accepted by the Borrowing Fund all terms and conditions of such Loan Request form). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Trust may verbally request a Loan hereunder, whether up to the initial Maturity Date or for a new Maturity Date, provided that the Trust shall, on the same day, send the Bank by e-mail or telecopy a follow-up Loan Request in respect thereof. The Bank may rely upon, and shall incur no liability for relying upon, any oral or written request the Bank believes to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or made by such an Authorized Officer or such other authorized person. In no event shall the Trust request any Loan which, if advanced, would cause the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding to exceed the applicable Borrowing Fund Limit or Maximum Amount. Each e-mail or verbal request for a Loan hereunder shall be deemed to include, and each written request shall include, a representation that all of the representations and warranties made by the applicable Borrowing Fund in the Loan Documents are and will be, after giving effect to the requested Loan, true and correct, that all the conditions precedent to such Loan as set forth in Section 6 hereof have been satisfied, and that the proceeds of the Loan will not be used for any purpose that is not permitted hereunder. Each advance of Loan proceeds hereunder shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000.00.

(d) Disbursement of Funds. Each Loan shall be effectuated by the Bank crediting an account maintained by the Bank for the designated Borrowing Fund, all as further specified in Exhibit A hereto.

(e)

Interest.

(i) Each Borrowing Fund shall pay interest on the outstanding principal balance of such Borrowing Fund’s Loan at a rate per annum equal to the greater of zero percent (0.0%) or the Prime Rate minus one-half of one percent (0.5%), which interest shall be payable monthly, in arrears, commencing on October 1, 2025 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter and on the date specified in clause (b) of the definition of Maturity Date; provided that a Borrowing Fund may at its option pay such interest whenever all or any part of its Loans are due, whether on the Maturity Date, by virtue of a mandatory prepayment, or by reason of demand, acceleration or otherwise (on the amount then due) and whenever such Borrowing Fund repays all or part of such Borrowing Fund’s Loan as a voluntary prepayment. The Bank will invoice the Trust on a monthly basis for interest due on Loans to its Borrowing Funds for the previous month.

(ii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder by a Borrowing Fund, at the option of the Bank, the Loans and other outstanding Obligations of such defaulting Borrowing Fund to the Bank shall bear interest (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest on the Loans to such Borrowing Fund prior to the occurrence of such Event of Default) payable on demand at a rate equal to three percent (3%) per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate (the “Default Rate”).

(iii) Interest on the Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.

(iv)

If any payment by a Borrowing Fund is not made within ten (10) days after the date due, such Borrowing Fund shall pay the Bank an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such payment or $50.00, whichever is greater.

(f) Maximum Outstanding Period. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Loan to a Borrowing Fund shall be outstanding for more than forty-five (45) Business Days after the date that the first Loan to such Borrowing Fund during such forty-five (45) Business Day period is made.

Payments.

(a)

Mandatory Prepayments.

(i) If (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding exceeds the Maximum Amount at any time or (B) the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding to a Borrowing Fund exceeds the Borrowing Fund Limit with respect to such Borrowing Fund at any time, such excess shall be immediately due and payable to the Bank and (x) all Borrowing Funds having outstanding Loans, pro rata based on the outstanding principal amount of such Loans in the case of clause (A) above, or (y) the applicable Borrowing Fund in the case of clause

(B) above, as applicable, shall repay such excess.

(ii) Each Borrowing Fund shall repay each of its Loans in full in cash together with interest accrued thereon and any other fees and charges hereunder on the Maturity Date of such Loan and, if earlier, the date on which such Loans become due, whether by virtue of a mandatory prepayment provision, by demand, acceleration or otherwise.

(b) Voluntary Prepayments. Each Borrowing Fund may prepay its Loans in whole or in part from time to time without premium or penalty; provided, however, that each prepayment shall designate the Loan being repaid and be in an amount equal to, or greater than, $1,000.00 or, if less, the outstanding balance of such Loan, and shall be made with interest accrued thereon to the date of payment.

(c) Increased Costs. If there shall occur any Change in Law which shall have the effect of imposing on the Bank (or the Bank’s holding company) any increase or expansion of or any new: tax (excluding taxes on its overall income and franchise taxes), charge, fee, assessment or deduction of any kind whatsoever, or reserve, capital adequacy, special deposits or similar requirements against credit extended by, assets of, or deposits with or for the account of the Bank or other conditions affecting the extensions of credit under this Agreement; then the Borrowing Funds (or, if such increased costs relate only to a certain Borrowing Fund, such related Borrowing Fund), pro rata, shall pay to the Bank such additional amounts as the Bank deems necessary to compensate the Bank for any increased costs to the Bank attributable to the extension(s) of credit under this Agreement and/or for any reduction in the rate of return on the Bank’s capital and/or the Bank’s revenue attributable to such extension(s) of credit. “Change in Law” means the occurrence, after the date of this Agreement, of any of the following: (a) the adoption or taking effect of any, law, rule, regulation or treaty, (b) any change in any law, rule, regulation or treaty or in the administration, interpretation, implementation, or application thereof by any governmental authority or (c) the making or issuance of any request, rule, guidance or directive (whether or not having the force of law) by any governmental authority; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a “Change in Law,” regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

The Bank’s determination of the additional amount(s) due under this paragraph shall be binding in the absence of manifest error, and such amount(s) shall be payable within 10 days of demand and, if recurring, as otherwise billed by the Bank. Failure or delay on the part of the Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 3(c) shall not constitute waiver of the Bank’s right to demand such compensation. The Bank, and any successor or assign of the Bank's rights and obligations hereunder, shall deliver to each Borrower at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit all payments to be made hereunder to be made. Failure or delay on the part of the Bank to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3(c) shall not constitute a waiver of the Bank's right to demand such compensation; provided that the applicable Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than three (3) months prior to the date that the Bank notifies such Borrower of such Change in Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive from any Governmental Authority giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the Bank's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if such Change in Law or change in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by the Bank with any request or directive from any Governmental Authority giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the three (3) month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(d) Taxes. All payments made by the Borrowing Funds under this Agreement and/or any Note shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes). If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Bank hereunder and/or under any Note, such amounts shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Bank (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement and/or any Note. Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes are payable by a Borrowing Fund, as promptly as possible thereafter the Trust shall send to the Bank a certified copy of an original official receipt received by such Borrowing Fund or the Trust, as the case may be, showing payment thereof. If a Borrowing Fund fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Bank the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Borrowing Fund shall indemnify the Bank for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Bank as a result of any such failure. The Bank, and any successor or assign of the Bank's rights and obligations hereunder, shall deliver to each Borrower at the time or times reasonably requested by the applicable Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit all payments to be made hereunder to be made without withholding or deduction as set forth above. To the extent the Bank or such successor or assign fails to deliver such documentation to the applicable Borrower, then the Borrower shall have no obligation to make any additional payments, or otherwise gross up, the Bank or such successor or assigns for any Non-Excluded Taxes.

(e) Place of Payment. All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the Bank at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇-▇▇-▇▇-▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, or at such other place as may be designated by the Bank to the Trust in writing.

(f) Business Day Payments. Whenever any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents provides that any payment to be made shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, if any, in connection with such payment.

(g) Application of Payment. Any payments received by the Bank from a Borrower on account of the Obligations of such Borrower will be applied in such order as the Bank may elect in its sole discretion.

Without limitation on the ability of the Bank to exercise all of its rights as to the Collateral or to initiate and prosecute any action or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction related to loan repayment, any Borrower and/or the Collateral, the Borrowing Funds, the Trust and the Bank agree that any action or proceeding commenced by or on behalf of the parties arising out of or relating to the Loans and/or this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in the District Court of the United States for the Southern District of Ohio, or any other court of applicable jurisdiction located in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The Bank may at any time, without the consent of the Trust and/or any Borrower, sell, assign, transfer, grant participations in, or otherwise dispose of any portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to any other Person and may provide information regarding the Trust, any Borrower, the Loan Documents and/or the Obligations to prospective assignees, transferees and participants. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained herein, the Bank will not assign or pledge any of its rights and obligations hereunder to any entity or group of entities whose identity or substitution for the Bank in the Loan Documents would cause the Trust or any Borrowing Fund to be in violation of the Act. Provided, however, the Bank may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of the Bank, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, that no such pledge or assignment may release the Bank from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for the Bank as a party hereto.

(i) Amendment. This Agreement may not be modified or amended except in a writing signed by the authorized officers of the Bank and by the Trust on behalf of the Borrowers. However, at the sole option of the Bank, the Maturity Date specified in clause (b) of the Section 1 definition thereof, may be extended for additional 364-day periods (subject to such extension being the only then change to this Agreement) if an Authorized Officer who is an executive officer of the Trust, on behalf of the Borrowers, delivers to the Bank (from such officer’s email address) at least thirty (30) days prior to the date then specified in clause (b) of the definition of Maturity Date, an extension request substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 attached hereto and made a part hereof (an “Extension Request”). The Extension Request shall confirm the continuance of and be subject to the conditions for Loans specified in Section 6(b) of this Agreement. If such an extension is granted by the Bank, it shall be evidenced by an extension approval letter substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 attached hereto and made a part hereof (an “Extension Approval Letter”) and this Agreement will be deemed amended to extent necessary to give effect to such extension. Agreement by the Bank to allow an extension in this manner does not commit the Bank to make any future extension similarly available – and the Bank may, at its option, require any such future extension of the term of this Agreement to be evidenced by an “Amendment to Loan Agreement” signed by all parties.

(j) Headings. The descriptive headings of the several Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement.

The term “City National Rochdale Funds” means and refers to the trustees from time to time serving under the Trust’s Declaration of Trust as the same may have been or may subsequently be, amended. It is expressly agreed that the obligations of Borrowing Funds hereunder shall not be binding upon any of the trustees, shareholders, nominees, officers, agents or employees of the Trust personally. The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been authorized by the trustees of the Trust and signed by officers of the Trust, acting as such, and neither such authorization by such trustees nor such execution and delivery by such offices shall be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on them personally. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the facility hereunder and under the other Loan Documents is intended to function as if each Borrowing Fund had entered into a separate, unrelated facility with the Bank and no cross-default or cross-collateralization shall exist with respect to the obligations of any Borrowing Fund in relation to any other Fund. In no event shall the rights, obligations or remedies of the Bank with respect to a particular Fund constitute a right, obligation or remedy applicable to any other Fund. Specifically, and without otherwise limiting the scope of this paragraph: (i) the Bank’s remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents upon the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be determined as if each Fund had entered into a separate loan facility with the Bank; and (ii) no Collateral pledged by or on behalf of any Fund shall secure the obligations of any other Fund under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Bank shall have no right to set off claims related to Loans entered into by a particular Fund against claims related to Loans entered into by any other Fund. It is further acknowledged and agreed that the Trust is entering into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents solely on behalf of its Funds and the Loan Documents are not intended to create obligations of the Trust independent of such Funds, the obligations of the Trust under the Loan Documents being limited to causing its Funds to comply with the terms and conditions thereof, except for obligations specifically imposed upon the Trust pursuant to the terms of the Loan Documents.

(l) USA PATRIOT Act Notification. The following notification is provided to the Trust and the Borrowing Funds pursuant to Section 326 of the PATRIOT Act: The Bank hereby notifies the Trust and each Borrowing Fund (each a “Loan Party”) that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow the Bank to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the PATRIOT Act.

(m) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. The foregoing sentence shall also apply to each other Loan Document.

(n) Document Imaging; Telecopy and PDF Signatures; Electronic Signatures. Without notice to or consent of the Trust or any Borrower, the Bank may create electronic images of any Loan Documents and destroy paper originals of any such imaged documents. Such images have the same legal force and effect as the paper originals and are enforceable against the Borrowers and any other parties thereto. The Bank may convert any Loan Document into a “transferrable record” as such term is defined under, and to the extent permitted by, UETA, with the image of such instrument in the Bank’s possession constituting an “authoritative copy” under UETA. If the Bank agrees, in its sole discretion, to accept delivery by telecopy or PDF of an executed counterpart of a signature page of any Loan Document or other document required to be delivered under the Loan Documents, such delivery will be valid and effective as delivery of an original manually executed counterpart of such document for all purposes. If the Bank agrees, in its sole discretion, to accept any electronic signatures of any Loan Document or other document required to be delivered under the Loan Documents, the words “execution,” “signed,” and “signature,” and words of like import, in or referring to any document so signed will deemed to include electronic signatures and/or the keeping of records in electronic form, which will be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature and/or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including UETA, E-SIGN, or any other states laws based on, or similar in effect to, such acts. The Bank may rely on any such electronic signatures without further inquiry.

(o) Bank as Lender and Custodian. The Bank as lender will, at the request of the Borrowers, serve in a dual capacity as a result of each Borrower’s custodial relationship with the Bank. Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Bank under this Agreement is acting solely as a lender in a completely separate capacity hereunder than its services as Custodian (and the Bank assumes hereunder none of the obligations of the Custodian under the Custody Agreement or under any applicable laws governing such custodial relationships). The Bank, as lender, shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers as a lender that is not acting as such a custodian – including without limitation if applicable the disposition and sale of any and all assets of the Borrowers pledged as collateral for the Obligations, and the parties agree that taking such action permitted hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in its capacity as the lender shall not constitute any conflict of interest or breach of fiduciary duty as a result of the Bank also being the Custodian for the applicable Borrower.

9. Termination. Trust, not individually but solely on behalf of each of the Borrowing Funds, may terminate this Agreement at any time by providing written notice to the Bank, subject solely to the condition that all outstanding Loans and any other accrued obligations under this Agreement (including any fees and interest) have been paid in full. Upon such termination, (i) no Borrowing Fund shall have any right to draw any Loans under this Agreement, and all amounts outstanding shall become immediately due and payable, (ii) this Agreement and all related Loan Documents, including without limitation any security agreement and any securities account control agreement, shall also be deemed terminated and of no further force or effect and (iii) the Bank shall release any security interests or controls held under the Loan Documents. Notice of termination given by Trust or any Borrowing Fund under this Agreement shall constitute notice and request for termination of all such related Loan Documents.

PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

THIS PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the 3rd day of September, 2025 by and between CITY NATIONAL ROCHDALE FUNDS, a Delaware statutory trust), not individually but solely on behalf of its Funds as set forth on Schedule A, separately and not jointly (each such Fund a “Debtor” and collectively the “Debtors”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association (the “Secured Party”), as follows:

1. Security Interest. To secure the prompt payment of all of each Debtor's Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement referred to below), under that certain Amended and Restated Loan Agreement between the Secured Party and the Debtors with respect to the loans such Debtor dated as of even date herewith (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) and all of the other Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement)), each Debtor hereby grants to the Secured Party a continuing first priority lien and security interest in and right of setoff against all of such Debtor's rights, title and interest, including without limitation such Debtor's securities entitlement (as such term is defined in Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of Ohio (the “UCC”)), in and to the following described securities account (as such term is defined in Article 8 of the UCC) held by U.S. Bank National Association, as custodian (the “Custodian”): the Fund trust accounts specified in Schedule A, attached hereto and made a part hereof in the name of the Debtor (collectively the “Securities Account”), together with all of such Debtor’s rights, title and interest in and to all securities and financial assets (as such terms are defined in Article 8 of the UCC) therein and all principal, interest, distributions, dividends (whether cash or stock), income, earnings, cash and other rights at any time received or receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange therefor, and all additions to, all replacements of, all substitutions for, and all proceeds of any or all of the foregoing (all of the foregoing being sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Collateral” of such Debtor). The Secured Party may also prepare and file on behalf of the Debtors appropriate UCC-1 financing statements evidencing the Secured Party's interest in the Collateral under Article 9 of the UCC.

2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Debtor represents and warrants to the Secured Party, and covenants with the Secured Party, which representations, warranties and covenants shall be continuing so long as any Obligations of such Debtor remain outstanding or this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any of the Secured Party's rights and remedies under any of them, remain in effect, that:

(a) Such Debtor has and will continue to maintain a securities entitlement to the Collateral of such Debtor, free and clear of all liens, security interests, setoffs and adverse claims whatsoever, except for the security interest of the Secured Party hereunder, and except that the Custodian may set off (i) all amounts due to the Custodian in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of the Securities Account of such Debtor and (ii) the face amount of any checks which have been credited to the Securities Account of such Debtor but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds.

(b) Such Debtor has not entered into and shall not enter into a control agreement with respect to the Collateral in favor of any party other than the Secured Party, and no financing statement covering any of the Collateral of such Debtor is or shall be on file against such Debtor in any public office except in favor of the Secured Party.

(c) Until such time as the Custodian receives from the Secured Party a Notice of Sole Control with respect to such Debtor, as defined in the Securities Account Control Agreement dated as of the date hereof among the Secured Party, the Debtors and the Custodian (the “Control Agreement”), but at no time thereafter unless the Secured Party has provided written notice to the Custodian of revocation of such Notice of Sole Control, such Debtor shall direct the Custodian with respect to the voting of the Collateral and may direct the Custodian with respect to substitution and disposition of Collateral and otherwise provide instructions and entitlement orders to the Custodian with respect to the Collateral. The Secured Party shall have the right to give a Notice of Sole Control at any time, but only if an Event of Default (as hereinafter defined) has occurred or then exists.

(d) Such Debtor shall defend its Collateral against the claims and demands of all persons and shall pay promptly all taxes and assessments with respect to such Collateral.

(e) At its option, the Secured Party may discharge taxes, liens, security interests and other claims against the Collateral of such Debtor and may pay for the maintenance, preservation and protection thereof, including costs and expenses incidental to any actions undertaken by the Secured Party pursuant to Section 4 hereof, and such Debtor shall reimburse the Secured Party on demand for any payments so made, which payments by the Secured Party shall become part of the Obligations of such Debtor secured hereby.

(f) Such Debtor shall from time to time execute such documents and instruments, including without limitation financing statements, in form and substance satisfactory to the Secured Party (and pay the cost of filing or recording them in whatever public offices the Secured Party reasonably deems necessary) and perform such other acts as the Secured Party may reasonably request from time to time to perfect and maintain a valid first priority security interest in the Collateral. Such Debtor hereby expressly grants the Secured Party a power of attorney, and appoints and constitutes the Secured Party as such ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s agent, for the purpose and with the power to sign on behalf of such Debtor in such Debtor's name, one or more financing statements covering any of the Collateral described herein.

3. Events of Default. The occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement by any Debtor shall constitute an Event of Default by such Debtor under this Agreement.

Remedies.

(a) Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by a Debtor hereunder and at any time thereafter while such Event of Default is continuing, the Secured Party shall have, in addition to all other rights and remedies available by agreement, at law or in equity, the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, including without limitation the right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations of such Debtor, without notice or demand, to take possession of the Collateral of such Debtor and any proceeds thereof wherever located, and to sell and/or liquidate such Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in its discretion and without notice to or consent of the affected Debtor, the Secured Party may take any one or more of the following actions (and the Secured Party is hereby irrevocably appointed such ▇▇▇▇▇▇'s attorney-in-fact to accomplish this), without liability except to account for property actually received by it: (i) give a Notice of Sole Control and give instructions and/or entitlement orders (as such terms are defined in Article 8 of the UCC) in regard to or in connection with the Securities Account of such Debtor, including any instructions to transfer, sell, redeem, close open trades or otherwise liquidate securities and financial assets in such Securities Account; (ii) transfer to or register in its name or the name of its designated custodian or nominee any of the Collateral of such Debtor, with or without indication of the security interest herein created, and whether or not so transferred or registered, exercise or cause to be exercised all voting rights with respect thereto, and receive the income, dividends and other distributions thereon and hold them or apply them to the Obligations of such Debtor in any order of priority; (iii) exchange any of the Collateral of such Debtor for other property upon a reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment and, in connection therewith, deposit any of such Collateral with any committee or depository upon such terms as the Secured Party may determine; (iv) in its name or in the name of the affected Debtor demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for any of the Collateral of such Debtor and, in connection therewith, endorse notes, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment; and (v) make any compromise or settlement deemed advisable with respect to any of the Collateral of such Debtor. Each Debtor shall, and hereby authorizes any securities intermediary with respect to its Collateral to, make such Collateral available to the Secured Party following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default at a place to be designated by the Secured Party that is reasonably convenient for both parties. The Secured Party may sell the Collateral of the affected Debtor, or any part thereof, at any public or private sale, upon credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices as the Secured Party may deem appropriate, and the Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral and thereafter may hold the same, absolutely, free from any right or claim of whatever kind. If notice is required, the Secured Party shall give to the affected Debtor at least five (5) days' prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral of such Debtor or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. The Secured Party shall also be entitled upon the occurrence of any Event of Default by a Debtor, without notice or demand and to the extent permitted by law, to have a receiver appointed to take charge of all or any part of the Collateral of such Debtor, exercising all of the rights granted to the Secured Party in such this Section 4.

(b) If the Secured Party in good faith believes that the Securities Act of 1933 or any other state or federal law prohibits or restricts the customary manner of sale or distribution of any of the Collateral, the Secured Party may sell such Collateral privately or in any other manner deemed advisable by the Secured Party at such price or prices as the Secured Party determines in its sole discretion. Each Debtor recognizes that such prohibition or restriction may cause the Collateral to have less value than it otherwise would have and that, consequently, such sale or disposition by the Secured Party may result in a lower sales price than if the sale were otherwise held. On any sale of any Collateral, the Secured Party is hereby authorized to comply with any limitation or restriction in connection with such sale that may be advised by counsel is necessary to avoid any violation of applicable law or in order to obtain any required approval of the purchaser by any governmental regulatory authority or officer or court.

(c) The Secured Party, instead of exercising any power of sale herein conferred upon it, may proceed by suit at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and sell the Collateral of a defaulting Debtor, or any portion thereof, under a judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) To the extent allowed by law, a defaulting Debtor shall pay the Secured Party all expenses of retaking, holding, preparing for sale, selling and the like, including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses, and such costs shall be paid out of the proceeds of disposition of the Collateral of such Debtor.

(e) The proceeds of disposition of the Collateral of a Debtor shall be applied to the Obligations of such Debtor in such manner and order of priority as the Secured Party may determine.

(f) The Secured Party shall be under no duty to exercise or to withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Secured Party in this Agreement, and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

(g) The Secured Party shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral if it takes such action for that purpose as the relevant Debtor shall request, but failure to honor any such request shall not of itself be deemed a failure to exercise reasonable care. The Secured Party shall not be required to take any steps necessary to preserve any rights in the Collateral against prior parties nor to protect, preserve, or maintain any security interest given to secure the Obligations.

Miscellaneous.

(a) Each of the rights, powers, and remedies provided herein or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power, or remedy provided for in this Agreement or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The exercise of any such rights, powers, or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any or all other such rights, powers, or remedies.

(b) No default shall be waived by the Secured Party except in writing and no waiver of any payment or other right under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any other payment or right.

(c) Each Debtor shall pay all fees and expenses, including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, incurred by the Secured Party in acting hereunder or in connection herewith with respect to such Debtor.

(d) The Secured Party may assign, transfer, or deliver any of the Collateral to any transferee of any of the Obligations, and thereafter shall be fully discharged from all responsibility with respect to such Collateral. Such transferee shall be vested with all the powers, rights and obligations of the Secured Party hereunder with respect to such Collateral, but the Secured Party shall retain all rights, powers and obligations hereunder with respect to any of the Collateral remaining.

(e) Without affecting any obligations of the Debtor under this Agreement, the Secured Party without notice or demand may renew, extend, or otherwise change any of the terms or conditions of any of the Obligations, release any of the Collateral or other security for the Obligations, and add or release any guarantor, endorser, surety, or other party to any of the Obligations.

(f) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent, notice or other communication required or contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be hand delivered, or sent by facsimile, telecopy, e-mail, overnight courier or United States mail, registered or certified with postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at their addresses set forth below:

SECURITIES ACCOUNT CONTROL AGREEMENT

This Securities Account Control Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of September 3, 2025 among CITY NATIONAL ROCHDALE FUNDS, a Delaware statutory trust, not individually, but solely on behalf of its respective Funds as set forth on Schedule A, separately and not jointly (each such Fund a “Debtor” and collectively the “Debtors”), U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as lender (the “Secured Party”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as custodian (the “Custodian”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned in the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement with respect to the Debtors dated as of even date herewith between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and the Secured Party (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”). All references herein to the “UCC” shall mean the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of Ohio.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, each Debtor is a mutual fund and the Financial Assets in the Securities Account (as such terms are hereinafter defined) of such Debtor are assets of such Debtor and such Debtor has full authority pursuant to its declaration of trust to borrow moneys and to grant a security interest to the Secured Party in the Financial Assets contained in such Securities Account;

WHEREAS, the Secured Party and the Debtors have entered into the Loan Agreement, pursuant to which the Secured Party, in its sole discretion, may make certain loans to the Debtors;

WHEREAS, as a condition to making such loans each Debtor must provide to the Secured Party a first priority lien and perfected security interest in the Securities Account of such Debtor; and

WHEREAS, the parties are entering into this Agreement for the purpose of perfecting the Secured Party's security interest in the Securities Account of each Debtor by granting the Secured Party control over each such Securities Account.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein made, the Debtors, the Secured Party and the Custodian hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Establishment of Securities Account. The Custodian hereby confirms that (i) the Custodian has established trust accounts as specified in Schedule A hereto in the name of each Debtor (such account and any successor account, the “Securities Account” of such Debtor), (ii) each Securities Account is an account to which Financial Assets are or may be credited, and the Custodian shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, treat the Secured Party as entitled to exercise the rights that comprise any Financial Asset credited to each such Securities Account, (iii) all property delivered to the Custodian by or on behalf of a Debtor will be promptly credited to the Securities Account of such Debtor and (iv) all securities or other property underlying any Financial Assets credited to the Securities Account of a Debtor shall be registered in the name of the Custodian and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to such Securities Account be registered in the name of such Debtor, payable to the order of such Debtor or specially indorsed to such Debtor.

Section 2. Financial Assets Election. The Custodian hereby agrees that each item of property (whether investment property, financial asset, security, instrument or cash) credited to a Securities Account (collectively, the “Financial Assets”) shall be treated as a “financial asset” within the meaning of Article 8 of the UCC.

Section 3. Entitlement Orders. If at any time the Custodian shall receive any entitlement order (as such term is defined in Article 8 of the UCC) from the Secured Party directing transfer or redemption of any Financial Asset relating to a Securities Account of a Debtor, including any instructions to transfer, sell, redeem, close open trades, or otherwise liquidate assets in the Securities Account, the Custodian agrees that it shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the relevant Debtor or any other person.

Section 4. Subordination of Lien; Waiver of Set-Off. In the event that the Custodian has or subsequently obtains by agreement, operation of law, or otherwise a security interest in a Securities Account or any security entitlement credited thereto, the Custodian hereby agrees that such security interest shall be subordinate to the security interest of the Secured Party. The Financial Assets and other items deposited in each Securities Account will not be subject to deduction, set-off, banker's lien, or any other right in favor of any person other than the Secured Party (except that the Custodian may set off (i) all amounts due to the Custodian in respect of its customary fees and expenses for the routine maintenance and operation of such Securities Account and (ii) the face amount of any checks which have been credited to such Securities Account but are subsequently returned unpaid because of uncollected or insufficient funds).

Section 5. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Ohio, including, without limitation, the laws thereof with respect to perfection, the effect of perfection and non-perfection, and the priority of security interests. Regardless of any provision in any other agreement, for purposes of the UCC, Ohio shall be deemed to be the Custodian's jurisdiction.

Section 6. Indemnification. Each Debtor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Custodian and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, expenses, causes of action, liabilities, lawsuits, and damages, including without limitation court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees, in any way related to or arising out of or in connection with this Agreement as it relates to such Debtor or the Securities Account of such Debtor, except such as may arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Custodian.

Section 7. Conflict with Other Agreements. This Agreement supplements each Debtor's existing agreements with the Custodian and in no way is this Agreement intended to abridge any rights that the Custodian might otherwise have, except as expressly provided herein. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement (or any portion hereof) and any other agreement now existing or hereafter entered into between the Custodian and a Debtor, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail and the Secured Party's security interest in the Securities Account will be prior to any other security interest therein.

Section 8. Amendments; Waiver. No amendment or modification of this Agreement or waiver of any right hereunder shall be binding on any party hereto unless it is in writing and is signed by all of the parties hereto.

Section 9. Notice of Adverse Claims. Except for the claims and interest of the Secured Party and of each Debtor in the Securities Account of such Debtor, the Custodian does not know of any claim to, or interest in, such Securities Account or in any Financial Asset credited thereto. If any person asserts any lien, encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against such Securities Account or in any Financial Asset carried therein, the Custodian will promptly notify the Secured Party and the relevant Debtor thereof. Furthermore, each Debtor agrees that it will not enter into any agreement or document purporting to grant any security interest in the Securities Account of such Debtor without the prior written consent of the Secured Party.

Section 10. Loans. The Secured Party agrees to notify the Custodian each time there is an increase or decrease in the outstanding principal balance of the Loans to a Debtor under the Loan Agreement.

Section 11. Maintenance of Securities Account. In addition to, and not in lieu of, the obligation of the Custodian to honor entitlement orders as agreed in Section 3 hereof, the Custodian agrees to maintain the Securities Account as follows:

(i) Notice of Sole Control. If at any time the Secured Party delivers to the Custodian a Notice of Sole Control in substantially the form set forth in Schedule B attached hereto and made a part hereof (a “Notice of Sole Control”), the Custodian agrees that after receipt of such notice, it will take all directions, instructions and entitlement orders with respect to the Securities Account specified in such Notice of Sole Control and the Financial Assets therein solely from the Secured Party without notice to or consent of the relevant Debtor.

(ii) Voting Rights.

PROMISSORY NOTE

$[300,000,000]

Cincinnati, Ohio

[Date]

CITY NATIONAL ROCHDALE FUNDS, a Delaware statutory trust (“Trust”), not individually but only on behalf of its Funds listed in Schedule A (attached hereto and made a part hereof) for which a borrowing is requested (each a “Borrower” or “Borrowing Fund” and collectively the “Borrowers” or “Borrowing Funds” hereunder), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, (the “Bank”), or its successors or assigns, on or before [September 2, 2026], or such earlier date specified in the Loan Agreement as the Maturity Date (“Maturity Date”), the principal sum of [Three Hundred Million] Dollars ($[300,000,000]), or such portion thereof as may be outstanding from time to time as Loans to the Borrowers which are related to the Trust under the hereinafter-described Loan Agreement, together with interest thereon as hereinafter provided.

This Promissory Note (this “Note”) is the “Note” to which reference is made in the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of September 3, 2025 between the Borrowers and the Trust party thereto and the Bank (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”) and is subject to the terms and conditions thereof, including without limitation the terms thereof providing for acceleration of maturity of the loans made by the Bank to the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement and evidenced by this Note (the “Loans”).

This Note shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of zero percent (0.0%) or the Prime Rate minus one-half of one percent (0.5%), which interest shall be payable monthly, in arrears, [commencing on October 1, 2025] and on the 1st day of each month thereafter and on the date specified in clause (b) of the definition of Maturity Date; provided that a Borrowing Fund may at its option pay such interest whenever all or any part of its Loans are due, whether on the Maturity Date, by virtue of a mandatory prepayment, or by reason of demand, acceleration or otherwise (on the amount then due) and whenever such Borrowing Fund repays all or part of such Borrowing Fund’s Loan as a voluntary prepayment. Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of three hundred sixty (360) days but applied to the actual number of days elapsed.

As used herein, the term “Prime Rate” shall mean the rate which the Bank announces as its prime lending rate, as in effect from time to time. The Prime Rate is determined solely by the Bank pursuant to market factors and its own operating needs and does not necessarily represent the lowest or best rate actually charged to any customer. The Bank may make commercial or other loans at rates of interest at, above or below the Prime Rate.

The principal of this Note is subject to mandatory prepayments, as follows: (i) if the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding to any Borrower exceeds the Borrowing Fund Limit for such Borrower at any time, such excess shall be immediately due and payable, (ii) if the aggregate principal amount of the Loans outstanding to all Borrowing Funds under the Loan Agreement exceeds the Maximum Amount at any time, the Borrower’s pro rata share of such excess (as determined pursuant to Section 3(a) of the Loan Agreement) shall be immediately due and payable and (iii) the principal of this Note shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date and, if earlier, the date on which the Loans become due, whether by virtue of demand, acceleration or otherwise. This Note may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time, without premium or penalty; provided, however that each prepayment of principal shall be in an amount equal to no less than $1,000.00 (or, if less, the then-outstanding balance of this Note).

If any payment due from a Borrowing Fund is not made within ten (10) days after the date due, such Borrowing Fund shall pay the Bank an amount equal to five percent (5%) of such payment or $50.00, whichever is greater.

An “Event of Default” as described in the Loan Agreement with respect to a Borrower shall constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Upon the occurrence of such an Event of Default, the Bank shall have all rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Agreement and otherwise available at law or in equity with respect to such Borrower. At the option of the Bank, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default with respect to a Borrowing Fund, this Note shall bear interest applicable to such Borrowing Fund (computed and adjusted in the same manner, and with the same effect, as interest prior to the occurrence of such Event of Default) payable on demand at a rate equal to three percent (3%) per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate.

All payments of principal and interest hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds to the Bank at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, M.L. CN-OH-W7SI, or at such other place as may be designated by the holder hereof to the Borrower in writing. Each Borrower and the Trust authorize the Bank to charge any account, in the name of such Borrower, or charge or increase any loan balance of such Borrower at the Bank for the amount of any interest or principal payments due to the Bank hereunder. The Bank is further authorized by each Borrower and the Trust to enter from time to time the balance of this Note and all payments thereon on the reverse of this Note or in the Bank’s regularly maintained data processing records, and the aggregate unpaid amount set forth thereon or therein shall be presumptive evidence of the amount owing to the Bank and unpaid on this Note, absent manifest error.

The Borrowing Fund’s and the Trust’s obligations under this Note are subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8(k) of the Loan Agreement, which provisions are incorporated by reference as if set forth in full herein. If any term or condition of this Note conflicts with the express terms or conditions of the Loan Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement shall control. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings herein as in the Loan Agreement.

IMPORTANT: This Note shall be deemed made in Ohio and shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, including all matters of construction, validity and performance.

Without limitation on the ability of the Bank to exercise all of its rights as to any of the Collateral provided by the Borrower or to initiate and prosecute any action or proceeding in any applicable jurisdiction related to loan repayment, each Borrower and the Bank agree that any action or proceeding commenced by or on behalf of the parties arising out of or relating to this Note shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, or any other court of applicable jurisdiction located in Cincinnati, Ohio. Each Borrower and the Bank also agree that a summons and complaint commencing an action or proceeding in any such Ohio courts by or on behalf of such parties shall be properly served and shall confer personal jurisdiction on a party to which said party consents, (i) if served personally or by registered or certified mail to the other party at any of its addresses noted herein, or

(ii) as otherwise provided under the laws of the State of Ohio. Each Borrower, the Trust, and the Bank hereby waive all rights to trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or related to this Note. The interest rate and all other terms of this Note negotiated with the Borrowers are, in part, related to the aforesaid provisions on jurisdiction, which the Bank deems a vital part of this loan arrangement.

Presentment for payment, notice of dishonor, protest, demand, notice of protest and all other notices are hereby waived.

(iv) The Federal Reserve Form U-1 given by the Borrower to the Bank. On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Trust is organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware and is registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

2. Each Fund has full power and authority to own its assets and to conduct its business as a management investment company.

3. Each Fund is a duly created and validly existing Series (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

4. The Trust has full power and authority to execute the Loan Documents on behalf of the Borrowing Funds and the Borrowing Funds to perform their obligations thereunder.

5. The execution and delivery of, and the performance by the Trust (on behalf of its Borrowing Funds) of their obligations under the Loan Documents (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary action, (b) are not in conflict with and do not violate any provisions of the Trust’s currently existing Declaration of Trust or other organizational or governing documents or any Fund’s Statement or Prospectus, (c) do not violate any law, rule or regulation, or to our knowledge, any order or decree, and (d) to our knowledge, are not in conflict with and do not result in any breach or default under any document, instrument or agreement to which the Trust or any Borrowing Fund is a party.

6. The Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Trust and constitute the legal, valid, binding obligations of the Trust and Borrowing Funds enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject, as to enforcement of remedies, to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the discretion of courts in granting equitable remedies.
