Management fee: 1.40% of daily net assets per year, current as of latest filed disclosure. Research only: not used in a fee distribution. SEC source 0001213900-26-066828.

Filed fee conditions

In consideration of its services to the Fund, the Adviser is entitled to a management fee equal to 1.40% on an annualized basis of the Fund's daily net assets, provided the fee shall in no instance be greater than one computed on the value of net assets as of the close of business on the last business day of the relevant month (including Shares pending repurchase) -- a valuation-timing proviso, not a second rate. The Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser 50% of the Management Fee out of this amount, not an additional fund-level charge.
