Agreement

The Adviser and the Co-Adviser agree as follows:

Appointment.

Role of Co-Adviser. The Adviser appoints the Co-Adviser to provide certain co-investment advisory services to the Fund, subject to the oversight and direction of the Adviser and the Board, for the period set forth in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the previous statement, the Co-Adviser shall manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund in accordance with such investment strategies and within such limitations as the Adviser and the Co-Adviser shall agree in writing from time to time (the “Strategy”). The Co-Adviser acknowledges and agrees that the various investment advisory and other services to be performed by the Co-Adviser will apply to the portion of the Fund’s assets that Adviser or the Board shall from time to time designate, which may consist of all, a portion, or none of the Fund’s assets (the “Allocated Portion”). The Co-Adviser accepts its appointment and agrees, subject to the oversight of the Board and the Adviser, to render the services and to assume the obligations set forth in this Agreement for the compensation referenced in Section 5 of this Agreement. The Co-Adviser shall for all purposes of this Agreement be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, except as expressly provided or authorized (whether herein or otherwise), have no authority or obligation to act for or represent the Adviser, the Trust, or the Fund in any way.

Limitations of Co-Adviser’s Responsibility. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Co-Adviser shall not be responsible for aspects of the Fund’s investment program other than the management of the Allocated Portion in accordance with the Strategy or for any obligations of the Fund.

Co-Advisory Arrangement Not Exclusive for Fund. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Adviser may appoint from time to time other sub-advisers or co-advisers in addition to the Co-Adviser to manage the assets of the Fund that do not constitute the Allocated Portion and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted to grant the Co-Adviser an exclusive arrangement to act as the sole co-adviser to the Fund. It is further acknowledged and agreed that the Adviser makes no commitment to designate any portion of the Fund’s assets to the Co-Adviser as the Allocated Portion.

Co-Adviser Duties.

The Co-Adviser is granted (subject to the limitations expressed) the following authority and undertakes to provide the following services and to assume the following obligations:

It is acknowledged and agreed that, under appropriate circumstances and as agreed to by the Fund, any error that results in a gain to the Fund may be offset against any liability of the Co-Adviser under this Agreement.

The Co-Adviser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each affiliated person of the Company within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act (any said person, a “Company Indemnitee”) against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, or liabilities (including the reasonable cost of investigating and defending any alleged loss, claim, damage, expense, or liability and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) to which any said person may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the 1940 Act, or other U.S. federal or state statutory law or regulation, or Cayman Islands law, rule or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) a material breach by the Co-Adviser of this Agreement or of the representations and warranties made by the Co-Adviser herein; (ii) any trade error (as such term is used in Section 2(o) hereof); (iii) any untrue statement of a material fact by the Co-Adviser contained in any Disclosure Document relating to the Co-Adviser and the Co-Adviser’s affiliates (other than the Adviser), the Fund’s investment strategies and related risks, and other information supplied by Co-Adviser for inclusion therein, or the omission by the Co-Adviser from a Disclosure Document of a material fact regarding the Co-Adviser or the Co-Adviser’s investment program required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (iv) the Co-Adviser’s performance or non-performance of the Co-Adviser’s duties hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to protect any Company Indemnitee who is a director or officer of the Company against any liability to the Company or to the Company’s shareholders to which said Company Indemnitee otherwise would be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of said person’s office with the Company.

Promptly after receipt of notice of any action, arbitration, claim, demand, dispute, investigation, lawsuit or other proceeding (each a “Proceeding”) by a party seeking to be indemnified under Section 9(c), 9(d) or 9(e) (the “Indemnified Party”), the Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against a party against whom indemnification is sought under Section 9(c), 9(d) or 9(e) (the “Indemnifying Party”) notify the Indemnifying Party in writing of the commencement of such Proceeding; provided that, the failure to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any indemnification liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party; provided that such party is not materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. No Indemnifying Party shall be liable under this section for any settlement of any Proceeding entered into without its consent with respect to which indemnity may be sought hereunder.

The rights of indemnification provided in this section shall not be exclusive of or affect any other rights to which any person may be entitled by contract or otherwise by law, and shall not protect any person against any liability to which any such person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of such person’s duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of such person’s obligations and duties under this Agreement.

This Agreement shall terminate automatically and immediately upon termination of the Advisory Agreement or the Real Asset Co-Advisory Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate automatically and immediately in the event of its assignment. The terms “assignment,” “interested person” and “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities” shall have the meaning set forth for such terms in the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder. This Agreement may be amended at any time upon the mutual agreement of the Co- Adviser and the Adviser, subject to approval by the Board (including approval by those Trustees that are not “interested persons” of the Trust) and, if required by the 1940 Act or applicable SEC rules and regulations, a vote of a majority of Real Asset’s outstanding voting securities; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended or terminated in accordance with any exemptive order issued to the Adviser, the Trust or its affiliates.

15.

Confidentiality.

Except as expressly authorized in this Agreement or as required by applicable law, regulation, regulation of any self-regulatory organization, court order or other judicial process, or as requested by a regulator, each party hereto and its affiliates (each, for purposes of this section, the “Recipient Party”) shall keep confidential and shall not use or disclose, except with the consent of the other party hereto (each, for purposes of this section, the “Disclosing Party”), any and all non-public, proprietary or confidential information concerning the business of the Disclosing Parties and/or their affiliates or investors, or potential investors, therein obtained in connection with the services rendered under this Agreement, including, without limitation, Portfolio Information (the “Information”); provided that the Recipient Party may make such disclosure to its directors, officers, partners, employees, agents, advisors, service providers, potential financing counterparties or representatives, including legal and compliance personnel (collectively, the “Representatives”) who (i) need to know the Information in connection with this Agreement, (ii) have been informed of the confidential nature of such Information and (iii) have been advised that such Information is to be kept confidential and not used for any other purpose. The term “Information” will not include information that (i) is or becomes publicly available other than as a result of a disclosure by the Recipient Party in violation of this section; (ii) is or becomes available to the Recipient Party or its Representatives from a source other than the Disclosing Party, which source, to the knowledge of the Recipient Party or its Representatives, does not have an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party with respect to such information; (iii) was already in the Recipient Party’s possession or the possession of its Representatives prior to receiving such information from the Disclosing Party; or (iv) is developed independently by the Recipient Party or its Representatives without use of the Information. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 15(a) will be deemed to prevent the Recipient Parties from disclosing Information pursuant to any applicable law or in response to a request from a regulatory or judicial authority of competent jurisdiction. The Adviser agrees that it will not use the information provided by the Co-Adviser to try to “reverse engineer” the investment and trading methodologies and strategies of the Co-Adviser.

Portfolio Information. As used in this Agreement, “Portfolio Information” means confidential and proprietary information with regard to the portfolio holdings, investment activity and characteristics of the Fund. In addition to the requirements of subsection (a) above, the Adviser and the Co-Adviser will restrict access to the Portfolio Information to those employees of the Adviser and the Co-Adviser or their affiliates or agents who will use it only for purposes reasonably related to the provision of services to the Fund and the Adviser, and each of the Adviser and the Co-Adviser will be obligated to ensure that it is used only for such purposes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the Fund or the Adviser from providing Portfolio Information in connection with any bona fide due diligence request from a party that is under an obligation of confidentiality to the Fund or to the Adviser or any of its affiliates.

Each of the Adviser and the Co-Adviser agrees that it shall exercise the same standard of care that it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information, but no less than reasonable care, to protect the confidentiality of the Information.

Each Recipient Party acknowledges the global nature of each Disclosing Party’s businesses and the efforts the Disclosing Parties undertake to develop, preserve and protect their Information and their business and competitive advantage and goodwill. Accordingly, each Recipient Party acknowledges and agrees that the restrictions, limitations and obligations in this section are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Disclosing Parties and their affiliates. Each Recipient Party also acknowledges that the Disclosing Parties would not have entered into this Agreement unless the Recipient Party agreed to such restrictions, limitations, and obligations.

16.
