PROVISION OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY SERVICES
Subject to the delegation of any of the following duties to one or more persons permitted by Section 19 of
this Agreement, the Adviser shall render the following services to the Trust:
(a)The Adviser shall assume all investment duties and have full discretionary power and authority with
respect to investment of the assets of each Fund. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Adviser shall,
with respect to the assets of each Fund: (i) obtain and evaluate such information and advice relating to the economy,
securities markets and securities as it deems necessary or useful to discharge its duties hereunder; (ii) continuously
invest the assets in a manner consistent with the Organic Documents, other written guidelines or restrictions, as may
be amended from time to time, agreed upon in writing by the Trust and the Adviser which guidelines and restrictions
shall not be inconsistent with the Prospectuses (“Written Guidelines”), and the Trust Procedures, as may be provided
to the Adviser consistent with Section 1(a)(i) of this Agreement; (iii) determine the securities to be purchased, sold
or otherwise disposed of and the timing of such purchases, sales and dispositions; (iv) vote all proxies for securities
and exercise all other voting rights with respect to such securities in accordance with the Adviser’s written proxy

its sole discretion, to carry out its duties under this Agreement.
(b)The Adviser shall also furnish to or place at the disposal of the Trust such information, evaluations,
analyses and opinions formulated or obtained by the Adviser in the discharge of its duties, as the Trust may, from
time to time, reasonably request.
(c)The Adviser agrees, that in performing its duties hereunder, it will comply, in all material respects, with
(i) the 1940 Act, the Advisers Act and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; (ii) all other federal and state
laws and regulations applicable to the Adviser; (iii) applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended; and (iv) the provisions of the Organic Documents.
(d)The Adviser shall keep accurate and detailed records concerning its services under this Agreement and
all such records shall be open to inspection at all reasonable times by the Trust and any appropriate regulatory
-3-
authorities. The Adviser shall provide to the Trust copies of any and all documentation relating to each Fund’s
transactions upon reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that all records which it maintains for each Fund are the
property of the Fund and it further agrees to surrender promptly to the Fund copies of any such records upon the
Fund’s request, provided that the Adviser shall be entitled to keep copies of any such records.
(e)At the request of the Trust from time to time, the Adviser shall provide pricing and valuation
information with respect to particular securities it has purchased for each Fund if the Trust has determined that such
pricing and valuation information is not otherwise reasonably available to it through standard pricing services. In the
event that the Adviser believes a valuation provided by a pricing service for a security it has purchased for a Fund is
materially inaccurate, the Adviser agrees to promptly notify the Trust.
(f)From time to time at the request of the Trust, the Adviser will (i) meet, either in person or via
teleconference, with such other persons as the Trust may designate, including the Board, on reasonable notice and at
reasonable times and locations, to discuss general economic conditions, performance, investment strategy and other
matters relating to each Fund; and/or (ii) provide written materials to the Trust , including the Board, on reasonable
notice, discussing general economic conditions, performance, investment strategy and other matters relating to each
Fund.
(g)The Adviser shall be responsible for filing any required reports on its behalf with the Securities and
Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 13(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”) and the
rules and regulations thereunder.
(h)To the extent reasonably requested by the Trust, the Adviser will use its best efforts to assist the Trust
in connection with the Trust’s compliance with the Federal securities laws, as such term is defined in Rule 38a-1
under the 1940 Act, (“Federal Securities Laws”), including, without limitation, providing the Chief Compliance
Officer of the Trust with: (i) Compliance Procedures, as may be amended from time to time (including prompt
notice of any material changes thereto); (ii) a summary of the Compliance Procedures in connection with the annual
review thereof by the Trust; (iii) upon request, a certificate of the chief compliance officer of the Adviser to the
effect that the policies and procedures of the Adviser are reasonably designed to prevent violation of the Federal
Securities Laws; (iv) direct access to the Adviser’s chief compliance officer, as reasonably requested by the Chief
Compliance Officer of the Trust; (v) a completed quarterly informational questionnaire regarding the Adviser’s
compliance program; and (vi) quarterly certifications indicating whether there were Material Compliance Matters (as
that term is defined by Rule 38a-1) that arose under the compliance policies and procedures of the Trust and/or
Compliance Procedures in such detail as may be reasonably requested by the Chief Compliance Officer of the Trust.
(i)Except as permitted by the Trust Procedures, the Adviser will not disclose but shall treat confidentially
all information in respect of the investments of each Fund, including, without limitation, the identification and
market value or other pricing information of any and all portfolio securities or other financial instruments held by
the Fund, and any and all trades of portfolio securities or other transactions effected for the Fund (including past,
pending and proposed trades).
(j)The Trust or its agent will provide timely information to the Adviser regarding such matters as inflows
to and outflows from each Fund and the cash requirements of, and cash available for investment in each Fund. The
Trust or each Fund’s custodian (the “Custodian”) will timely provide the Adviser with copies of monthly accounting
statements for each Fund, and such other information as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order for the
Adviser to perform its responsibilities hereunder.
(k)The Adviser shall not consult with any other investment adviser (other than affiliates of the Adviser) of
any other series of the Trust concerning portfolio transactions for a Fund or any other series of the Trust.
(m)The Adviser shall maintain errors and omissions insurance in an amount at least equal to that disclosed
to the Board in connection with the approval of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement.
3.
BROKERAGE
The Adviser is responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for each Fund, for broker-dealer selection,
and for negotiation of brokerage commission rates, provided that the Adviser shall not direct an order to an affiliated
-4-
person of the Adviser without general prior authorization to use such affiliated broker or dealer from the Trust’s Chief
Compliance Officer. The Adviser’s primary consideration in effecting a securities transaction will be to seek best
execution. In selecting broker-dealers to execute transactions, the Adviser may take the following, among other things,
into consideration: the best net price available; the reliability, integrity and financial condition of the broker-dealer; the
size of and the difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected contribution of the broker-dealer to the
investment performance of a Fund on a continuing basis. The execution price of a transaction may be less favorable than
that available from another broker-dealer if the difference is reasonably justified by other aspects of the execution
services offered.
Subject to such policies as the Board may determine and consistent with Section 28(e) of the 1934 Act, the
Adviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or
otherwise solely by reason of its having caused a Fund to pay a broker or dealer that provides (directly or indirectly)
brokerage or research services to the Adviser an amount of commission for effecting a portfolio transaction in excess
of the amount of commission another broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the
Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular
transaction or the Adviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to a Fund and to other clients of the Adviser as to
which the Adviser exercises investment discretion. Subject to the same policies and legal provisions, the Adviser is
further authorized to allocate the orders placed by it on behalf of a Fund to such brokers or dealers who also provide
research or statistical material, or other services to the Trust, the Adviser or any affiliate of either. Such allocation
shall be in such amounts and proportions as the Adviser shall determine, and the Adviser shall report on such
allocations regularly to the Trust, indicating the broker-dealers to whom such allocations have been made and the
basis therefor.
On occasions when the Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of a Fund
as well as of other clients, the Adviser, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may aggregate the
securities to be so purchased or sold in order to obtain the most favorable price or lower brokerage commissions and
the most efficient execution. In such event, the allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expense incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Adviser in the manner it considers to be equitable and
consistent with its fiduciary obligations to a Fund and to such other clients.
The Trust authorizes and empowers the Adviser to open and maintain trading accounts in the name of a
Fund and to execute for the Fund as its agent and attorney-in-fact standard institutional customer agreements with
such broker or brokers as the Adviser shall select as provided herein. The Adviser shall cause all securities and other
property purchased or sold for a Fund to be settled at the place of business of the Custodian or as the Custodian shall
direct. All securities and other property of a Fund shall remain in the direct or indirect custody of the Custodian
except as otherwise authorized by the Board.
The Adviser further shall have the authority to instruct the Custodian to pay cash for securities and other
property delivered to the Custodian for a Fund and deliver securities and other property against payment for the
Fund, and such other authority granted by the Trust from time to time. The Adviser shall not have authority to cause
the Custodian to deliver securities and other property or pay cash to the Adviser except as expressly provided herein.
4.
ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES
(a)With respect to the operation of a Fund, the Adviser shall be responsible for (i) the Fund’s
organizational expenses; (ii) providing the personnel, office space and equipment reasonably necessary to perform
its obligations hereunder; (iii) the expenses of printing and distributing extra copies of the Fund’s prospectus,
statement of additional information, and sales and advertising materials (but not the legal, auditing or accounting
fees attendant thereto) to prospective investors (but not to existing shareholders) to the extent such expenses are not
covered by any applicable plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (each, a “12b-1 Plan”); (iv) the
costs of any special Board meetings or shareholder meetings convened for the primary benefit of, and requested by,
the Adviser; and (v) any costs of liquidating or reorganizing the Fund if the liquidation or reorganization is made at
the request of the Adviser (unless such cost is otherwise allocated by the Board). If the Adviser has agreed to limit
the operating expenses of a Fund, the Adviser also shall be responsible on a monthly basis for any operating
expenses that exceed the agreed upon expense limit, subject to the terms of such agreement.
-5-
(b)A Fund is responsible for and has assumed the obligation for payment of its expenses, other than as
stated in Section 4(a) above, including but not limited to: fees and expenses (including legal fees) incurred in
connection with the issuance, registration (and maintenance of registration) and transfer of its shares; commissions,
spreads, fees and other expenses connected with the acquisition, holding, disposition of securities and other
investments including placement and similar fees in connection with direct placements entered into on behalf of the
Fund; all expenses of transfer, receipt, safekeeping, servicing and accounting for the cash, securities and other
property of the Trust for the benefit of the Fund including all fees and expenses of its custodian, shareholder
services agent and accounting services agent; all expenses incurred in connection with borrowings; dividend
expenses related to short sales; costs and expenses of pricing and calculating its daily net asset value and of
maintaining its books of account required under the 1940 Act; taxes, if any; its portion of expenditures in
connection with meetings of the Board that are properly payable by the Fund; its allocable portion of expenditures
in connection with meetings of shareholders as determined by the Board; its allocable portion of salaries and
expenses of officers of the Trust other than officers and employees of U.S. Bancorp Fund Services, LLC or any
duly appointed successor (the “Administrator”) (except the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer if determined to be
appropriate by the Board); its allocable portion of fees and expenses of members of the Board or members of any
advisory board or committee who are not members of, affiliated with or interested persons of the Adviser or the
Administrator; its allocable portion of the Trust’s insurance premiums on property or personnel of the Fund which
inure to its benefit, including liability and fidelity bond insurance; the cost of preparing and printing reports, proxy
statements, Prospectuses of the Fund or other communications for distribution to existing shareholders; its
allocable portion of the Trust’s legal, auditing and accounting fees; its allocable portion of the Trust’s trade
association dues or educational program expenses determined appropriate by the Board; all expenses of
maintaining and servicing shareholder accounts of the Fund maintained with the Trust’s transfer agent, including
all charges for transfer, shareholder recordkeeping, distribution disbursing, redemption; and all other charges and
costs of its operation plus any extraordinary and non-recurring expenses including litigation, proceedings, claims
and indemnification obligations to its directors, officers, service providers and shareholders, except as herein
otherwise prescribed.
(c)The Adviser may voluntarily or contractually absorb certain Fund expenses.
(d)To the extent the Adviser incurs any costs by assuming expenses which are an obligation of a Fund as
set forth herein, the Fund shall promptly reimburse the Adviser for such costs and expenses, except to the extent the
Adviser has otherwise agreed to bear such expenses. To the extent the services for which a Fund is obligated to pay
are performed by the Adviser, the Adviser shall be entitled to recover from such Fund to the extent of the Adviser’s
actual costs for providing such services. In determining the Adviser’s actual costs, the Adviser may take into
account an allocated portion of the salaries and overhead of personnel performing such services.
(e)To the extent that the Adviser pays fees in addition to any Fund distribution or servicing fees to
financial intermediaries, including without limitation banks, broker-dealers, financial advisors, or pension
administrators, for sub-administration, sub-transfer agency or any other shareholder servicing or distribution
services associated with shareholders whose shares are held in omnibus or other group accounts, the Adviser shall
report such payments regularly to the Trust on the amounts paid and the relevant financial institutions.
(f)The fee payable to the Adviser under this Agreement with respect to a Fund may be reduced to the
extent of any receivable owed by the Adviser to the Fund (provided that such obligation is not subject to a good
faith dispute) or as required under any operating expense limitation agreement applicable to the Fund.
5.
INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES
(a)For all of the services rendered with respect to a Fund as herein provided, the Trust shall pay to the
Adviser a fee at an annual rate based on the Current Net Assets (as defined below) of the Fund as set forth in
Schedule A attached hereto and made a part hereof. Such fee shall be accrued by a Fund daily and shall be payable
monthly in arrears, within fifteen business days after the last day of each month. If fees begin to accrue with respect
to a Fund during the middle of a month, all fees for the period from that date to the end of the month shall be
prorated according to the proportion that the period bears to the full month. In the case of termination of this
Agreement with respect to a Fund during any month, all fees accrued from the beginning of that month to, but
excluding, the date of termination, shall be prorated according to that proportion that the period bears to the full
month and shall be paid promptly following such termination. For purposes of computing the amount of advisory
-6-
fee accrued for any day, “Current Net Assets” shall mean a Fund’s net assets as of the most recent preceding day for
which the Fund’s net assets were computed.
(b)The Adviser voluntarily may reduce any portion of the compensation or reimbursement of expenses
due to it pursuant to this Agreement and may agree to make payments to limit the expenses which are the
responsibility of a Fund under this Agreement. Any such reduction or payment shall be applicable only to such
specific reduction or payment and shall not constitute an agreement to reduce any future compensation or
reimbursement due to the Adviser hereunder or to continue future payments. Any such reduction will be agreed to
prior to accrual of the related expense or fee and will be estimated daily and reconciled and paid on a monthly basis.
(c)Any such reductions made by the Adviser in its fees or payment of expenses which are a Fund’s
obligation are subject to reimbursement by the Fund to the Adviser for a period of thirty-six months following the
end of the month in which such reduction or payment was accrued, if so requested by the Adviser, if the aggregate
amount actually paid by the Fund toward the operating expenses for such month (taking into account the
reimbursement) does not exceed the applicable limitation on Fund expenses. Such reimbursement may not be paid
prior to a Fund’s payment of current ordinary operating expenses.
(d)The Adviser may agree not to require payment of any portion of the compensation or reimbursement
of expenses otherwise due to it pursuant to this Agreement. Any such agreement shall be applicable only with
respect to the specific items covered thereby and shall not constitute an agreement not to require payment of any
future compensation or reimbursement due to the Adviser hereunder.
6.LIABILITY; STANDARD OF CARE
(a)The Adviser shall have responsibility for the accuracy and completeness (and liability for the lack
thereof) of any information with respect to the Adviser, its personnel or a Fund’s strategies providing in writing to
the Trust for inclusion in the Fund’s offering materials (including the Prospectus and advertising and sales
materials).
(b)The Adviser shall act at all times in the best interests of each Fund and shall discharge its duties with
the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent person acting in a like
capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of a similar enterprise. The Adviser shall not be
liable to the Trust, a Fund, or a Fund’s shareholders for any action or inaction of the Adviser relating to any event
whatsoever in the absence of bad faith, willful misfeasance or negligence in the performance of or the reckless
disregard of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, federal
securities laws and certain state laws impose liabilities under certain circumstances on persons who have acted in
good faith, and therefore nothing herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the
Trust, a Fund or any shareholder of the Fund may have under federal securities laws or state laws.
(c)In no event shall the Adviser be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in performance of its
obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its
reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of civil or military authority, national emergencies, labor
difficulties (other than those related to the Adviser’s employees), fire, mechanical breakdowns, flood or catastrophe,
acts of God, insurrection, war, riots or failure of the mails, transportation, communication or power supply.
(d)The Adviser, its affiliates, agents and employees, shall not be liable to the Trust or a Fund for failure
to act or any action taken in good faith reliance upon:
(i)The Fund’s directions to the Custodian, or brokers, dealers or others with respect to the
making, retention or sale of any investment or reinvestment hereunder; or
(ii)Acts or omissions of the Custodian or a Fund, their respective affiliates, agents or
employees.
(e)No party to this Agreement shall be liable to another party for consequential damages under
any provision of this Agreement.
(f)The Adviser shall not be deemed by virtue of this Agreement to have made any representation or
warranty that any level of investment performance or level of investment results will be achieved.
-7-
(g)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each party to this Agreement (as an “Indemnifying
Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the other party and the shareholders, directors, officers, and employees of
the other parties (any such person, an “Indemnified Party”) against any loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
(including the reasonable cost of investigating and defending any alleged loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense
and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) arising out of the Indemnifying Party’s performance
or non-performance of any duties under this Agreement, provided, however, that indemnification shall not be paid
hereunder with respect to any matter to the extent to which the loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense was caused
by the Indemnified Party’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or
reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement, and provided further, however, that the Adviser
shall only be required to indemnify and hold harmless an Indemnified Party to the extent the loss, liability, claim,
damage, or expense of such Indemnified Party was attributable to the Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or
negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or reckless disregard of the Adviser’s obligations or duties
hereunder.
(h)If indemnification is to be sought hereunder, then the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the
Indemnifying Party of the assertion of any claim or the commencement of any action or proceeding in respect
thereof and will keep the Indemnifying Party advised with respect to all developments concerning such claim, action
or proceeding; provided, however, that the failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the
Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may otherwise have to the Indemnified Party provided such failure shall
not affect in a material adverse manner the position of the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party with respect
to such claim. Following such notification, the Indemnifying Party may elect in writing to assume the defense of
such action or proceeding and, upon such election, it shall not be liable for any legal costs incurred by the
Indemnified Party (other than reasonable costs of investigation previously incurred) in connection therewith, unless
(i) the Indemnifying Party has failed to provide counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party in a timely
manner or (ii) counsel which has been provided by the Indemnifying Party reasonably determines that its
representation of the Indemnified Party would present it with a conflict of interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to employ separate counsel at its own expense and, in such event, the
Indemnified Party may participate in such defense as it deems necessary. The Indemnified Party shall in no case
confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the Indemnifying Party may be required to
indemnify it except with the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld,
conditioned or delayed; notwithstanding this Section 6 hereof, in the event the Indemnified Party has not secured
such consent, the Indemnifying Party will have no obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party. Upon request and
at the Indemnifying Party’s expense, the Indemnified Party shall provide reasonable assistance to the Indemnifying
Party so that the Indemnifying Party can defend against such claim, action or proceeding.
(i)The provisions of Sections 6(g) and (h) shall not apply in any action where the Indemnified Party is
the party adverse, or one of the parties adverse, to the other party.
7.
TERM AND TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT
(a)This Agreement shall become effective with respect to a Fund immediately upon the latter of
approval by a majority of the Trust’s Trustees who are not interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) and, if
required by applicable law, by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund. The Agreement
shall, unless terminated as hereinafter provided, continue in effect for a period of two (2) years from the date of
effectiveness with respect to a Fund. This Agreement shall continue in effect thereafter for additional periods not
exceeding one (1) year so long as such continuation is approved for a Fund at least annually by (i) the Board or by
the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Trustees
of the Trust who are not parties to this Agreement nor interested persons thereof, cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval. The terms “majority of the outstanding voting securities” and
“interested persons” shall have the meanings as set forth in the 1940 Act.
(b)This Agreement may be terminated by the Trust on behalf of a Fund at any time without payment of
any penalty, by the Board, or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, upon sixty (60)
days’ written notice to the Adviser, and by the Adviser upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Fund. In the event
of a termination, the Adviser shall cooperate in the orderly transfer of a Fund’s affairs and, at the request of the
Board, transfer any and all books and records of the Fund maintained by the Adviser on behalf of the Fund.
(c)This Agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of any transfer or assignment thereof,
as defined in the 1940 Act.
-8-
8.SERVICES NOT EXCLUSIVE
The services of the Adviser to a Fund are not to be deemed exclusive and it shall be free to render similar
services to others so long as its services hereunder are not impaired thereby. It is specifically understood that directors,
officers and employees of the Adviser and of its subsidiaries and affiliates may continue to engage in providing portfolio
management services and advice to other investment advisory clients. The Trust agrees that Adviser may give advice and
take action in the performance of its duties with respect to any of its other clients which may differ from advice given or
the timing or nature of action taken with respect to a Fund. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to require
Adviser, its principals, affiliates, agents or employees to purchase or sell for any Fund any security which it or they may
purchase or sell for its or their own account or for the account of any other client.
9.NO SHORTING; NO BORROWING
The Adviser agrees that neither it nor any of its officers or employees shall take any short position in the shares of
the Fund. This prohibition shall not prevent the purchase of such shares by any of the officers or employees of the
Adviser or any trust, pension, profit-sharing or other benefit plan for such persons or affiliates thereof, at a price not
less than the net asset value thereof at the time of purchase, as allowed pursuant to rules promulgated under the 1940
Act. The Adviser agrees that neither it nor any of its officers or employees shall borrow from a Fund or pledge or
use the Fund’s assets in connection with any borrowing not directly for the Fund’s benefit.
10.AMENDMENT
No provision of this Agreement may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an
instrument in writing signed by all parties and approved by the Trust in the manner set forth in Section 7(a).
11.CONFIDENTIALITY
(a)“Confidential Information” as used in this agreement shall mean and include all tangible and
intangible information and materials being disclosed in connection with this Agreement by one of the Parties
(“Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (“Receiving Party”), in any form or medium (and without regard to whether
the information is owned by a Party or by a third party), that satisfy at least one of the following criteria:
(i)Information related to the Disclosing Party’s, its affiliates’ or its third-party licensors or vendors’
