5.The Committee shall oversee an annual evaluation by all Board members of Board effectiveness and the adequacy of the Board’s adherence to industry corporate governance best practices. This evaluation shall include a consideration of the effectiveness of the committee structure of the Board and the number of Funds on whose Boards each Trustee serves, and to make recommendations to the Board with respect to any changes to such process. The Committee shall recommend to the Board or its committees the implementation of proposed enhancements resulting from the annual evaluation.

6.The Committee shall periodically review, at such times as determined to be appropriate by the Committee or when requested by the Disinterested Board members, the compensation of the Independent Board members (including the compensation of the Chair of the Board and of each committee thereof) and to make recommendations to the Independent Board members regarding such compensation.
