relates to establishment and maintenance of a fire wall between the investment adviser and personnel of the broker-dealer or broker-dealer affiliate, as applicable, applicable to an Investment Companys Actual Portfolio and/or Proxy Portfolio or changes thereto, and not just to the underlying portfolio, as is the case with Managed Fund Shares.

In addition, Rule 20647 under the Advisers Act makes it unlawful for an investment adviser to provide investment advice to clients unless such investment adviser has i adopted and implemented written policies and procedures reasonably designed to prevent violations, by the investment adviser and its supervised persons, of the Advisers Act and the Commission rules adopted thereunder; ii implemented, at a minimum, an annual review regarding the adequacy of the policies and procedures established pursuant to subparagraph i above and the effectiveness of their implementation; and iii designated an individual who is a supervised person responsible for administering the policies and procedures adopted under subparagraph i above.
