ELECTRONIC RETAIL BROKER BUSINESS MODEL Sample Clauses

ELECTRONIC RETAIL BROKER BUSINESS MODEL. The business model under which VERSUS (as defined in the license agreement for the services referred herein) and E*TRADE will operate is based on the E*TRADE international model. This business model is providing electronic retail brokerage services to users, both prospective clients and private clients, via two primary electronic access points -- telephones and personal-computers. Both access points will use international telecommunications networks, both public (Internet) and private (e.g., America On-line), to provide to the retail client ---- a range of services for financial securities transactions in various regulatory jurisdictions around the world. The governing principal for this comprehensive global securities trading service, is providing clients with a consistent user interface and substantially ------------------------- comparable features from any and all domestic access points. In this business ------------------- model there are three classes of service: access services, prospect marketing services and brokerage services. Generally speaking, the front-end access services and marketing services are to be performed either by E*TRADE or VERSUS or jointly, while the back-end, or client, brokerage services and functions are provided exclusively by VERSUS (see Attachment C for detailed descriptions or roles and responsibilities). Consequently, as a service offered by VERSUS, this venture will operate under the Canadian regulatory environment, where executions, clearing and settlement must occur and customer accounts will be opened and maintained.

The Sub-Adviser shall manage the Sub-Advised Assets in conformity with (i) the investment objective, policies and restrictions of the Fund set forth in the Trust’s prospectus and statement of additional information relating to the Fund, 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 Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer, or by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (“Board”) that have been furnished in writing to the Sub-Adviser, (ii) the written instructions and directions received from the Adviser and the Trust as delivered; and (iii) the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (“Advisers Act”), and all other federal and state laws applicable to registered investment companies and the Sub-Adviser’s duties under this Agreement, all as may be in effect from time to time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2(a), however, (i) the Sub-Adviser shall, upon and in accordance with written instructions from the Adviser, effect such portfolio transactions for the Sub-Advised Assets as the Adviser shall determine are necessary in order for the Fund to comply with the Policies, and (ii) upon notice to the Sub-Adviser, the Adviser may effect in-kind redemptions with shareholders of the Fund with securities included within the Sub-Advised Assets.

To carry out such obligations, the Adviser shall exercise full discretion and act for the Funds in the same manner and with the same force and effect as the Funds themselves might or could do with respect to purchases, sales or other transactions, as well as with respect to all other such things necessary or incidental to the furtherance or conduct of such purchases, sales or other transactions. No reference in this Agreement to the Adviser having full discretionary authority over each Fund's investments shall in any way limit the right of the Board, in its sole discretion, to establish or revise policies in connection with the management of a Fund's assets or to otherwise exercise its right to control the overall management of a Fund.
