TRADING ADVISORY AGREEMENT

Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund

Trading Advisory Agreement (this “Agreement”) entered into as of the 23 March, 2018, by and among THE RBB FUND, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Fund”) on behalf of the Abbey Capital Multi Asset Fund (the “Portfolio”), ABBEY CAPITAL LIMITED, an Irish limited company (the “Adviser”), ABBEY CAPITAL MULTI ASSET OFFSHORE FUND LIMITED, an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Portfolio as defined below (the “Subsidiary”) and Revolution Capital Management LLC, a limited liability company formed under the laws of Colorado with its principal office at 000 Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 000, Xxxxxxxxxx, XX 00000 (the “Trader”).

This Agreement shall take effect on the date that the Portfolio or the Subsidiary initially deposits cash or securities in the Managed Account (as defined in the Supplemental Trading Agreement dated 23 March 2018 between the Parties) (the “Effective Date”).

WHEREAS, the Adviser has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement dated the 27 February, 2018 (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with the Fund, relating to the provision of investment advisory services to the Portfolio;

WHEREAS, the Adviser has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement dated the 27 February, 2018 (together with the Investment Advisory Agreement, the “Advisory Agreement”) with the Subsidiary, relating to the provision of investment advisory services to the Subsidiary;

WHEREAS, the Adviser, on behalf of the Portfolio, may allocate a portion of the Portfolio’s assets not to exceed in the aggregate 25% of its assets to the Subsidiary;

WHEREAS, the Advisory Agreement provides that the Adviser may delegate any or all of its investment advisory responsibilities under the Advisory Agreement to one or more sub-advisers;

WHEREAS, the Adviser and the Board of Directors of the Fund desire to retain the Trader to render portfolio management services to the Portfolio and the Subsidiary in the manner and on the terms set forth in this Agreement, and the Trader is willing to provide such services.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Trading Services.

(a) The Adviser hereby appoints the Trader to act as a commodity trading advisor (“CTA”) to the Portfolio and to the Subsidiary with respect to that portion of the Portfolio’s assets and the Subsidiary’s assets, respectively allocated from time to time to the Trader by the Adviser for the periods and on the terms herein set forth (the “Allocated Assets”). The Trader accepts such appointment and agrees to render the services herein set forth, for the compensation herein provided.

(b) The Trader shall, subject to the supervision and oversight of the Adviser, trade the Allocated Assets on behalf of the Portfolio and the Subsidiary, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Supplemental Trading Agreement entered into by the Adviser and the Trader in relation to the Allocated Assets and in accordance with (i) the investment objective, policies and restrictions of the Subsidiary and the Portfolio set forth in the Portfolio’s prospectus and statement of additional information, as they may be amended from time to time, any additional policies or guidelines, including without limitation compliance policies and procedures, established by the Adviser, the Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, or by the Fund’s Board of Directors (“Board”) that have been furnished in writing to the Trader, (ii) the written instructions and directions received from the Adviser and the Fund as delivered; and (iii) all federal and state laws applicable to the Subsidiary and the Trader’s duties under this Agreement, all as may be in effect from time to time. The foregoing are referred to below together as the “Policies.”

For purposes of compliance with the Policies, the Trader shall be entitled to treat the Allocated Assets as though the Allocated Assets constituted the entire Portfolio, and the Trader shall not be responsible in any way for the compliance of any assets of the Portfolio, other than the Allocated Assets, with the Policies. Subject to the foregoing, the Trader is authorized, in its discretion and without prior consultation with the Adviser, to buy, sell, lend and otherwise trade in any commodity interests, including futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts or commodities and swaps (the “Commodity Interests”) on behalf of the Portfolio and/or Subsidiary, as applicable, without regard to the length of time the Commodity Interests have been held and the resulting rate of portfolio turnover or any tax considerations; and the majority or the whole of the Allocated Assets may be invested in such proportions of Commodity Interests as the Trader shall determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1(b), however, (i) the Trader shall, upon and in accordance with written instructions from the Adviser, effect such portfolio transactions for the Allocated Assets as the Adviser shall determine are necessary in order for the Portfolio and/or Subsidiary to comply with the Policies, and (ii) upon notice to the Trader, the Adviser may effect in-kind redemptions with shareholders of the Portfolio with securities included within the Allocated Assets.

(c) Absent instructions from the Adviser or the officers of the Fund to the contrary, the Trader shall place orders pursuant to its determinations with any futures commission merchant the Trader so chooses, provided, however, the orders are settled with a futures commission merchant with which the Portfolio or Subsidiary, as applicable, has an account.

(d) The Trader hereby agrees that it shall not consult with any other investment adviser or CTA to the Fund with respect to transactions in Commodity Interests for the Allocated Assets or any other transactions in the Fund’s assets, other than for the purposes of complying with the conditions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of Rule 12d3-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”).

(e) The Trader may, on occasions when it deems the purchase or sale of a Commodity Interest to be in the best interests of the Portfolio or Subsidiary, as applicable, as well as other fiduciary or agency accounts managed by the Trader, aggregate, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, the Commodity Interests to be sold or purchased in order to obtain the best overall terms available. In such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Trader in the manner it considers to be most fair and equitable over time to the Portfolio or the Subsidiary, as applicable, and to its other accounts. In that connection, however, the Trader agrees that: (i) in rendering consulting, advisory and management services to other Commodity Interest trading accounts and entities, it will use its best efforts to achieve an equitable treatment of all accounts and will use a fair and reasonable system of order entry for all accounts; and (ii) it will not deliberately use any trading strategies for the Portfolio or Subsidiary which it or its principals know are inferior to those employed by other accounts. The Trader further agrees to be aware of the position limits imposed on certain Commodity Interest contracts by the CFTC or applicable contract market. The Trader will be entitled to use that portion of the applicable position limits that bears the same relationship that the Allocated Assets bears to all of the Portfolio’s or Subsidiary's assets, as applicable. If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, the Trader is required to aggregate the Portfolio’s or Subsidiary's Commodity Interest positions with the positions of any other person for purposes of applying the CFTC or exchange imposed speculative position limits, the Trader will promptly notify the Adviser if the Portfolio’s or Subsidiary's positions are included in an aggregate amount which exceeds the applicable speculative position limit. If the speculative positions limits are reached in any Commodity Interest contract, the Trader will modify the trading instructions to the Portfolio and Subsidiary, as applicable, and its other accounts in a reasonable and good faith effort to achieve an equitable treatment of all accounts. The Trader currently believes and represents that such speculative limits will not materially affect its trading recommendations or strategy for the Portfolio or Subsidiary given the Trader's current accounts and all proposed accounts for which the Trader has a contract to act as a CTA.

(f) The Trader, in connection with its rights and duties with respect to the Portfolio, Subsidiary and the Fund shall use the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims.

(g) The services of the Trader hereunder are not deemed exclusive and the Trader shall be free to render similar services to others (including other investment companies) so long as its services under this Agreement are not impaired thereby. The Trader will waive enforcement of any non-compete agreement or other agreement or arrangement to which it is currently a party that restricts, limits, or otherwise interferes with the ability of the Adviser to employ or engage any person or entity to provide investment advisory or other services and will transmit to any person or entity notice of such waiver as may be required to give effect to this provision; and the Trader will not become a party to any non-compete agreement or any other agreement, arrangement, or understanding that would restrict, limit, or otherwise interfere with the ability of the Adviser and the Fund or any of their affiliates to employ or engage any person or organization, now or in the future, to manage the Subsidiary, the Portfolio or any other assets managed by the Adviser.

(h) The Trader shall furnish the Adviser and the administrator of the Fund (the “Administrator”) daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly and annual reports concerning portfolio transactions and performance of the Allocated Assets as the Adviser may reasonably determine in such form as may be mutually agreed upon, and agrees to review the Allocated Assets with the Adviser and discuss the management of the Allocated Assets. The Trader shall promptly respond to requests by the Adviser, the Administrator, and the Fund CCO or their delegates for copies of the pertinent books and records maintained by the Trader relating directly to the Portfolio and/or Subsidiary. The Trader shall also provide the Adviser with such other information and reports, including information and reports related to compliance matters, as may reasonably be requested by it from time to time, including without limitation all material requested by or required to be delivered to the Board.

(i) Unless otherwise instructed by the Adviser, the Trader shall not have the power, discretion or responsibility to vote any proxies in connection with Commodity Interests in which the Allocated Assets may be invested, and the Adviser shall retain such responsibility.

(j) The Trader shall cooperate promptly and fully with the Adviser, the Portfolio, Subsidiary and/or the Fund in responding to any regulatory or compliance examinations or inspections (including any information requests) relating to the Fund, the Portfolio, the Subsidiary or the Adviser brought by any governmental or regulatory authorities. The Trader shall provide to the Fund CCO or his or her delegate notice of any deficiencies that are identified by the CFTC or the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in written correspondence to the Trader and that relate to the services provided by the Trader to the Portfolio or Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement. The Trader shall provide such notification within a reasonable period after receiving the correspondence. The Trader shall provide additional information with respect to such deficiencies as is reasonably requested by the Fund CCO or his or her delegatee.

(k) The Trader shall maintain separate detailed records of all matters pertaining to the Allocated Assets, including, without limitation, brokerage and other records of all securities transactions. Any records required to be maintained and preserved, pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the 1940 Act and/or by the CFTC, that are prepared or maintained by the Trader in respect of the Allocated Assets are the property of the Fund and will be surrendered promptly to the Fund upon request. The Trader further agrees to preserve for the periods, prescribed in Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act the records required to be maintained under Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act, and/or by the CFTC.

(l) The Trader shall promptly notify the Adviser of any financial condition that is likely to impair the Trader’s ability to fulfill its commitments under this Agreement.
