The parties acknowledge that the Sub-Adviser (i) is not a custodian of the Trust’s assets and will not take possession or custody of such assets and (ii) is not engaged to provide the official books and records of the Fund. The Adviser acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Sub-Adviser shall not be deemed to be the pricing or valuation agent for the Fund, and (ii) the Sub-Adviser is not obligated to provide pricing information to satisfy any regulatory requirements to which the Fund may be subject (e.g., FAS 157).

j. The Sub-Adviser shall not consult with any other sub-adviser of the Fund or the Trust, or the sub-adviser to any other investment company (or separate series of an investment company) managed by the Adviser concerning the Fund or Trust’s transactions in securities or other assets, except for purposes of complying with applicable law or regulation. The Adviser shall not be required to provide the Sub-adviser with Fund or Trust sales data.

k. Nothing in this Sub-Advisory Agreement shall prevent the Sub-Adviser from acting as investment adviser for any other person, firm, corporation or other entity and shall not in any way restrict the Sub-Adviser or any of its stockholders, directors, officers, employees or its affiliates from buying, selling or trading any securities for its or their own account or for the account of others from whom it or they may be acting; provided that such activities do not adversely affect the performance by any party of its duties under this Sub-Advisory Agreement.

Broker-Dealer Selection and Portfolio Transaction Information. The Sub-Adviser is authorized to place all orders for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities and investment instruments permitted by the Fund’s Registration Statement for the Fund either directly with the issuer or with brokers or dealers selected by the Sub-Adviser. To that end, the Sub-Adviser is authorized as the agent of the Fund to give instructions to the Custodian as to deliveries of securities and investment instruments and payments of cash for the account of the Fund. In connection with the selection of such brokers or dealers and the placing of orders for the Fund, the Sub-Adviser shall follow the relevant Fund Procedures, including the Policies and Procedures Relating to Fund Brokerage Allocation and Use of Fund Commissions. The Sub-Adviser will report to the Trust’s Board periodically on brokerage allocation, including with respect to use of Fund commissions to acquire research, indicating the broker-dealers to which such allocations have been made and the basis therefore as the Adviser or the Board reasonably requests.

The Sub-Adviser will arrange for the transmission to the Custodian on a daily basis such confirmation, trade tickets, and other documents and information, including, but not limited to, Cusip, Cedel, or other numbers that identify securities to be purchased or sold on behalf of the Fund, as may be reasonably necessary to enable the Custodian to perform its administrative and recordkeeping responsibilities with respect to the Trust.

Disclosure about Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser has received and reviewed the most current amendment to the Registration Statement for the Trust that contains or incorporates disclosure about the Sub-Adviser (if any), and represents and warrants that the disclosure, with respect to the Sub-Adviser, its personnel, and the investment policies and strategies followed by the Sub-Adviser in managing the Fund and the risks relating thereto is accurate in all material respects. The Sub-Adviser further represents and warrants that it is a duly registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act and will maintain such registration so long as this Agreement remains in effect and also complies with any other relevant regulatory requirements to operate its business. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that it has received a copy of the Sub-Adviser’s Form ADV (as filed with the SEC) prior to entering into this Agreement.

Duties of the Adviser. The Adviser undertakes to provide the Sub-Adviser with reasonable advance written notice of any action taken by the Adviser or the Trust’s Board that is likely to have any impact on the Sub-Adviser or its ability to provide services under this Agreement including, without limitation, any change to (i) the Fund’s investment objective(s), strategies, policies, and restrictions, (ii) the Fund Procedures, or (iii) the Fund’s Registration Statement as it relates to the services provided by the Sub-Adviser to the Fund. The Adviser agrees that, provided it is within its ability, it will allow for a reasonable implementation period for any such action and Sub-Adviser agrees it will make a reasonable effort to implement any such action within such implementation period.

Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will pay all expenses incurred by it and its staff and for their activities in connection with its duties under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, rental and overhead expenses, expenses of the Sub-Adviser’s personnel, insurance of the Sub-Adviser and its personnel, research services (except as permitted under the Fund Procedures), and taxes of the Sub-Adviser.

The Adviser and the Trust shall be responsible for all expenses of the Adviser’s and Fund’s operations, respectively, including, without limitation, those described in the Advisory Agreement.

Compensation. For the services provided to the Fund, the Adviser will pay the Sub-Adviser compensation in an amount equal to a percentage of the investable assets of the Fund per annum which are not invested in other investment companies for which Adviser or its affiliate (i) serves as adviser and (ii) receives an advisory fee (“Investable Assets”) as specified in Schedule A. The fee will be appropriately prorated to reflect any portion of a calendar month that this Agreement is not in effect. The Adviser is solely responsible for the payment of fees to the Sub-Adviser, and the Sub-Adviser agrees to seek payment of its fees solely from the Adviser. The Trust shall have no liability for Sub-Adviser’s fee hereunder.

Materials.

During the term of this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to furnish the Sub-Adviser at its principal office all prospectuses, statements of additional information, and sticker supplements relevant to the Sub-Adviser or its management of the Fund, as well as proxy statements and reports to shareholders prepared for distribution to shareholders of the Fund, which refer to the Sub-Adviser, prior to the use thereof, and neither the Adviser nor the Trust shall use any such materials if the Sub-Adviser reasonably objects in writing within a reasonable period of time (or such other period as may be mutually agreed) after receipt thereof. The Sub-Adviser’s right to object to such materials is limited to reasonable objections with respect to the accuracy or completeness of the disclosure in such documents or reports.

It is understood that the names “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇” and “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sachs Asset Management International” or any trademark, trade name, service ▇▇▇▇, or logo, or any variation of such trademark, trade name, service ▇▇▇▇, or logo of the Sub-Adviser or its affiliates (collectively, the “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Marks”) are the valuable property of the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates and that the Fund or its affiliates have the right to use such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Sachs Marks in offering materials of the Fund or any Fund only with the prior written approval of the Sub-Adviser and only for so long as the Sub-Adviser is a sub-adviser to the Fund. Upon termination of this Agreement or upon the earlier request of the Sub-Adviser, the Fund shall as soon as is reasonably possible cease to use the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Marks.

It is understood that the names “Boston Management and Research” and “▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Management” or any derivative thereof or logos associated with such names are the valuable property of the Adviser and its affiliates and that the Sub-Adviser has the right to use such names (or derivatives or logos) in client lists. Any other use shall require approval in advance from the Adviser. Upon termination of this Agreement the Sub-Adviser shall as soon as is reasonably possible cease to use such names (or derivatives or logos).

Compliance.

The Sub-Adviser has adopted written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violation by it, or any of its supervised persons, of the Advisers Act and the rules under the Advisers Act and other federal securities laws and regulations relevant to the performance of its duties under this Agreement (“Sub-Adviser Procedures”). The Sub-Adviser has designated a chief compliance officer (“CCO”) responsible for administering the Sub-Adviser Procedures. The CCO shall provide to the Adviser and/or the Trust and their respective CCOs written compliance reports relating to the operations and compliance procedures of the Sub-Adviser as may be required by law or regulation or as are otherwise reasonably requested. The Sub-Adviser agrees to implement other or additional compliance techniques as the Adviser or the Board may reasonably request, including written compliance procedures, provided that doing so would not cause the Sub-Adviser to incur additional significant fees or expenses or otherwise conflict with the Sub-Adviser’s compliance program.

The Sub-Adviser agrees that, if it is reasonably likely to have a material impact on the performance of its duties under this Agreement, it shall promptly notify, if legally permitted, the Adviser and the Trust (1) in the event that the SEC or other governing body has censured the Sub-Adviser; placed limitations upon its activities, functions or operations; suspended or revoked its registration as an investment adviser; or has commenced proceedings or an investigation (formal or informal) that is likely to reasonably result in any of these actions; or corresponded with the Sub-Adviser, including sending a deficiency letter or raising issues about the business, operations, or practices of the Sub-Adviser; (2) in the event of any notice of an investigation, examination, inquiry audit or subpoena of the Sub-Adviser or any of its officers or employees by any federal, state or other governmental agency or body, (3) upon having a reasonable basis for believing that the Fund has ceased to qualify or is likely not to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code, (4) upon detection of any breach of any of the Fund Procedures and of any violation of any applicable law or regulation, including the 1940 Act and Subchapter M of the Code, relating to the Fund, or (5) upon detection of any material violations of the Sub-Adviser Procedures that relate to the Fund or the Sub-Adviser’s activities generally, such as when the violation could be considered material to the Sub-Adviser’s advisory clients. The Sub-Adviser further agrees to promptly notify the Adviser and the Trust of any fact material to the Fund, the Adviser, the Board or shareholders of the Fund known to the Sub-Adviser respecting or relating to the Sub-Adviser that is not contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus for the Fund, or any amendment or supplement thereto received by the Sub-Adviser, or if any statement contained therein relating to the Sub-Adviser becomes untrue in any material respect.

The Adviser agrees that it shall promptly notify, if legally permitted, the Sub-Adviser (1) in the event that the SEC or other governing body has censured the Adviser or the Trust with respect to the Fund; placed limitations upon either of their activities, functions, or operations; suspended or revoked the Adviser’s registration as an investment adviser; or has commenced proceedings or an investigation that may result in any of these actions, (2) upon having a reasonable basis for believing that the Fund has ceased to qualify or might not qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code, or (3) of any regulatory matter involving the Fund’s investments or investment practices.

The Sub-Adviser will provide the Adviser with such reports, presentations, certifications and other information as the Adviser may reasonably request from time to time, in a format mutually agreed upon, concerning the business and operations of the Sub-Adviser in performing services hereunder or generally concerning the Sub-Adviser’s investment advisory services, the Sub-Adviser’s compliance with applicable federal, state and local law and regulations, changes in the Sub-Adviser’s key personnel, investment strategies, policies and procedures, and other matters that are likely to have a material impact on the Sub-Adviser’s duties hereunder.

10.

Books and Records. The Sub-Adviser hereby agrees that all records which it maintains for the Fund and the Trust are the property of the Trust and further agrees to surrender promptly to the Trust any of such records upon the Trust’s or the Adviser’s request in compliance with the requirements of Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, although the Sub-Adviser may, at its own expense, make and retain a copy of such records. The Sub-Adviser further agrees to preserve for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act the records required to be maintained by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act.

11.

Cooperation; Confidentiality. Each party to this Agreement agrees to cooperate with the other party and with all appropriate governmental authorities having the requisite jurisdiction (including, but not limited to, the SEC) in connection with any investigation or inquiry relating to this Agreement, the Fund or the Trust. Subject to the foregoing, each party shall treat as confidential all information pertaining to the Sub-Adviser, Adviser or the Fund or its shareholders or the Trust (as applicable), their actions with respect to the Fund and the Trust, and the business, operations and clients of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, except that the aforesaid information need not be treated as confidential if (a) required to be disclosed under applicable law, (b) generally available to the public through means other than by disclosure by the parties, or (c) available from a source other than the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or the Trust and without a breach of an obligation of confidentiality to the other party. Sub-Adviser acknowledges that the Adviser will have continuous access to the Fund’s holdings and information relating to portfolio management that is in the possession of the Custodian.

Neither the Adviser nor Sub-Adviser shall disclose or disseminate non-public information regarding the Fund, including a list of portfolio securities identified as being held by the Fund, which it receives or has access to in the course of performing its duties under this Agreement except as may be permitted by relevant Fund Procedures. Neither party shall use its knowledge of non-public information regarding the Fund as a basis to place or recommend any securities transactions for its own benefit, or the benefit of one or more of its clients, to the detriment of the Fund. To the extent that either Party has delegated any duties or services to an affiliate or a third-party, it shall ensure that any such affiliate or third-party abides by the confidentiality provision of this Section 11. Each Party shall ensure that any such affiliate or third-party shall enter into a written confidentiality agreement providing for the non-disclosure of such non-public information. Notice of such agreement shall be provided to the Trust.

12.

Control. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, it is understood and agreed that the Trust shall at all times retain the ultimate responsibility for and control of all functions performed pursuant to this Agreement and has reserved the right to reasonably direct any action hereunder taken on its behalf by the Sub-Adviser.

13.

Liability.

Except as may otherwise be required by the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder or other applicable law, the Adviser agrees that the Sub-Adviser, any affiliated person of the Sub-Adviser, and controlling persons thereof (each a “Sub- Adviser Controlling Person,” and collectively, “Sub-Adviser Controlling Persons”) shall not be liable for, or subject to any losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or litigation in connection with, any act or omission connected with or arising out of any services rendered under this Agreement, except by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence, in each such case, in the performance of the Sub-Adviser’s duties, or any material breach by the Sub-Adviser of its obligations or duties under this Agreement (the “Sub-Adviser Standard of Care”). In no case shall the Sub-Adviser, its affiliated persons or any of the Sub-Adviser Controlling Persons be liable for actions taken or non-actions with respect to the performance of services under this Agreement if the Sub-Adviser is instructed in

writing by the Adviser or the Trust to take such action or non-action. The Adviser understands and acknowledges that the Sub-Adviser does not warrant that the portion of the assets of the Fund managed by the Sub-Adviser will achieve any particular rate of return or that its performance will match any benchmark index or other standard or objective. In no case shall the Sub-Adviser, its affiliated persons or any of the Sub-Adviser Controlling Persons be liable for any portion of the assets of the Fund not managed by the Sub-Adviser (if any), and all representations and covenants of the Sub-Adviser in this Agreement shall be deemed to apply only to the portion of the assets of the Fund managed by the Sub-Adviser.

The Sub-Adviser agrees that neither the Trust nor the Fund shall bear any responsibility or shall be subject to any liability for any losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities or litigation of the Sub-Adviser connected with or arising out of its services under this Agreement.

14.

Indemnification.

The Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sub-Adviser, any affiliated person of the Sub-Adviser, and Sub-Adviser Controlling Persons (the Sub-Adviser and all of such persons being referred to as “Sub-Adviser Indemnified Persons”) against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities, or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses) to which a Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person may become subject under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“the 1933 Act”), the 1940 Act, the Advisers Act, under any other statute, at common law or otherwise, (1) arising out of the Adviser’s responsibilities to the Sub-Adviser which may be based upon the Adviser’s gross negligence, willful misfeasance, or bad faith in the performance of its duties, or any material breach by the Adviser of its obligations or duties under this Agreement, or (2) which may be based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus covering the Fund, or any amendment thereof or any supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading unless such statement or omission was made in reliance on disclosure reviewed by the Sub-Adviser in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement; provided however, that in no case shall the indemnity in favor of the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person be deemed to protect such person against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or any material breach of its obligations or duties under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding Section 13 of this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Adviser, any affiliated person of the Adviser, and controlling persons thereof (the Adviser and all of such persons being referred to as “Adviser Indemnified Persons”) against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses, liabilities, or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses) to which an Adviser Indemnified Person may become subject under the 1933 Act, 1940 Act, the Advisers Act, under any other statute, at common law or otherwise, (1) arising out of the Sub-Adviser’s responsibilities as sub-adviser of the Fund which may be based upon the Sub-Adviser’s breach of the Sub-Adviser Standard of Care; or (2) may be based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus covering the Fund, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact known or which should have been known to the Sub-Adviser and

was required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if such a statement was made in reliance upon disclosure reviewed by the Sub-Adviser in accordance with Section 8 of this Agreement or was omitted from a disclosure reviewed by the Sub-Adviser in accordance with such Section 8; provided, however, that in no case shall the indemnity in favor of an Adviser Indemnified Person be deemed to protect such person against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of its material breach of its obligations or duties under this Agreement.

The Adviser shall not be liable under Paragraph (a) of this Section 14 with respect to any claim made against a Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person unless such Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person shall have notified the Adviser in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person (or after such Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Adviser of any such claim shall not relieve the Adviser from any liability which it may have to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person against whom such action is brought except to the extent the Adviser is prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. In case any such action is brought against the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person, the Adviser will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof or, after notice to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person. If the Adviser assumes the defense of any such action and the selection of counsel by the Adviser to represent both the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person would result in a conflict of interests and therefore, would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person, adequately represent the interests of the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person, the Adviser will, at its own expense, assume the defense with counsel to the Adviser and, also at its own expense, with separate counsel to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person, which counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Adviser and to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person. The Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Adviser shall not be liable to the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The Adviser shall not have the right to compromise on or settle the litigation without the prior written consent of the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person if the compromise or settlement results, or may result, in a finding of wrongdoing on the part of the Sub-Adviser Indemnified Person.

The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable under Paragraph (b) of this Section 14 with respect to any claim made against an Adviser Indemnified Person unless such Adviser Indemnified Person shall have notified the Sub-Adviser in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Adviser Indemnified Person (or after such Adviser Indemnified Person shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Sub-Adviser of any such claim shall not relieve the Sub-Adviser from any liability which it may have to the Adviser Indemnified Person against whom such action is brought except to the extent the Sub-Adviser is prejudiced by the failure or delay in giving such notice. In case any such action is brought against the Adviser Indemnified Person, the Sub-Adviser will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof or, after notice to the Adviser Indemnified Person, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Adviser Indemnified Person. If the Sub-Adviser assumes the defense of any such action and the selection of counsel by the Sub-Adviser to represent both the Sub-Adviser and the Adviser Indemnified Person would result in a conflict of interests and therefore, would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Adviser Indemnified Person, adequately represent the interests of the Adviser Indemnified Person, the Sub-Adviser will, at its own expense, assume the defense with counsel to the Sub-Adviser and, also at its own expense, with separate counsel to the Adviser Indemnified Person, which counsel shall be reasonably

satisfactory to the Sub-Adviser and to the Adviser Indemnified Person. The Adviser Indemnified Person shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Adviser Indemnified Person under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Adviser Indemnified Person independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The Sub-Adviser shall not have the right to compromise on or settle the litigation without the prior written consent of the Adviser Indemnified Person if the compromise or settlement results, or may result, in a finding of wrongdoing on the part of the Adviser Indemnified Person.

15.
