| 1 | With respect to the Institutional Class, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will first reduce the “Class Specific Expenses” and then, to the extent necessary, further reduce “All Other Expenses” to limit the total Operating Expenses of the Institutional Class to the Expense Cap. With respect to the Investor Class, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ will reduce the same amount (in annual percentage terms) of “All Other Expenses” reduced for the Institutional Class without first reducing any Class Specific Expenses of the Investor Class. As used herein, the “Class Specific Expenses” of a Class means the Operating Expenses of that Class that are specific to that Class, including, without limitation, intermediary fees; and “All Other Expenses” of a Class means all Operating Expenses other than the Class Specific Expenses of that Class. All Other Expenses are the same in annual percentage terms for both the Institutional Class and the Investor Class of the same Fund. With respect to the expense cap for the Investor Class of a Fund, “X” represents the sum of (i) the amount (in annual percentage terms) of the Class Specific Expenses incurred by the Investor Class that exceed those incurred by the Institutional Class; and (ii) the amount (in annual percentage terms) of the Class Specific Expenses reduced for the Institutional Class and not the Investor Class. |
