NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and the mutual promises hereinafter set forth, the parties, intending to be legally bound hereby, mutually agree as follows:

1. Limit on Operating Expenses. The Adviser hereby agrees to limit the Fund's current Operating Expenses to an annual rate, expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets, to 0.75% until at least February 28, 2022 (the “Operating Expense Limitation”). In the event that the current Operating Expenses of the Fund, as accrued each month, exceeds the respective Operating Expenses Limitation, the Adviser will, as needed, waive its fees and pay to the Fund, on a monthly basis, the excess expense within 30 days of being notified that an excess expense payment is due.

2. Definition. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Operating Expenses” with respect to the Fund, is defined to include all expenses necessary or appropriate for the operation of the Fund and including the Adviser’s investment advisory or management fee detailed in the Management Agreement, but does not include (i) any front-end or contingent deferred loads; (ii) brokerage fees and commissions; (iii) unaffiliated acquired fund fees and expenses; (iv) fees and expenses associated with investments in other collective investment vehicles or derivative instruments (including for example option and swap fees and expenses); (v) borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short) (vi) taxes; (vii) foreign custody transaction costs and foreign account set up fees and (viii) extraordinary expenses such as litigation expenses (which may include indemnification of Fund officers and Trustees, and contractual indemnification of Fund service providers, including the Adviser)).

3. Reimbursement of Fees and Expenses. The Adviser retains its right to receive reimbursement of any excess expense payments paid by it pursuant to this Agreement for three years from the date on which the waiver or reimbursement occurs, if such reimbursement can be achieved within the lesser of the Operating Expense Limitation listed in Section 1 of the Agreement or the expense limits in place at the time of recoupment. The Adviser’s right to receive such reimbursement shall survive the termination of either this Agreement or the Management Agreement.

4. Term. This Agreement as to the Fund shall become effective on the date specified herein and shall remain in effect until the date specified in Section 1 of the Agreement unless sooner terminated as provided in Paragraph 5 of this Agreement.

5. Termination.

This Agreement will automatically terminate, with respect to the Fund listed in Section 1 of the Agreement if the Management Agreement for the Fund is terminated, with such termination effective upon the effective date of the Management Agreement’s termination for the Fund.

6. Assignment. This Agreement and all rights and obligations hereunder may not be assigned without the written consent of the other party.

7. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or made invalid by a court decision, statute or rule, or shall be otherwise rendered invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

8. Governing Law.
