1. #### Organization
Venerable

Variable

Insurance

Trust

(the

"Trust")

was

organized

as

a

Delaware

statutory

trust

on

October

2,

2023

and

is

registered

under

the

Investment

Company

Act

of

1940,

as

amended

("Investment

Company

Act"),

as

an

open-end

management

investment

company.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

Trust

offered

five

different

investment

portfolios

(each

a

"Fund"

and

collectively,

the

"Funds").

Each

Fund's

shares

are

offered

at

net

asset

value

("NAV")

to

qualified

insurance

company

separate

accounts

serving

as

investment

options

under

variable

insurance

products.

Venerable

Investment

Advisers,

LLC

("VIA"

or

the

"Adviser"),

a

wholly-owned

subsidiary

of

Venerable

Holdings,

Inc.,

serves

as

the

investment

adviser

to

the

Funds.

VIA

oversees

all

investment

advisory

and

portfolio

management

services.

The

Adviser

acts

as

a

manager

of

managers

and

makes

recommendations

with

respect

to

the

selection

and

continued

employment

of

the

sub-

advisers

to

manage

the

Funds'

assets.

The

Adviser

performs

diligence

on

and

monitors

the

sub-advisers

and

reviews

investment

performance

and

adherence

to

compliance

procedures.

The

Funds

are

authorized

to

issue

shares

of

beneficial

interest

in

one

or

more

classes.

Certain

of

the

Funds

currently

offer

two

classes

of

shares:

Class

V

and

Class

I. Class

V

is

subject

to

a

Rule

12b-1

distribution

fee

while

Class

I

is

not

subject

to

a

Rule

12b-1

fee.

Each

of

the

Funds

is

diversified.

Under

the

Investment

Company

Act,

a

diversified

company

is

defined

as

a

management

company

which

meets

the

following

requirements:

at

least

75%

of

the

value

of

its

total

assets

is

represented

by

cash

and

cash

equivalents

(including

receivables),

government

securities,

securities

of

other

investment

companies,

and

other

securities

for

the

purposes

of

this

calculation

limited

in

respect

of

any

one

issuer

to

an

amount

not

greater

in

value

than

five

percent

of

the

value

of

the

total

assets

of

such

management

company

and

not

more

than

10%

of

the

outstanding

voting

securities

of

such

issuer.

Unless

otherwise

specified,

"period"

(as

used

within

the

financial

statements)

refers

to

the

fiscal

period

ended

June

30,

2025. The

Venerable

Moderate

Allocation

Fund

pursues

its

investment

objective

by

investing

exclusively

in

other

affiliated

mutual

funds

managed

by

the

Adviser.

The

Venerable

Large

Cap

Index

Fund,

the

Venerable

Strategic

Bond

Fund

and

the

Venerable

High

Yield

Fund

each

use

a

sub-adviser

to

pursue

its

Fund

uses

a

multi-style

and

multi-manager

approach

including

the

use

of

sub-advisers

and

money

managers

to

pursue

its

investment

objective.

2. #### Significant

#### Accounting

#### Policies
The

Funds'

financial

statements

are

prepared

in

accordance

with

U.S.

generally

accepted

accounting

principles

("U.S.

GAAP")

which

require

the

use

of

management

estimates

and

assumptions

at

the

date

of

the

financial

statements.

Actual

results

could

differ

from

those

estimates.

The

Funds

are

considered

investment

companies

under

U.S.

GAAP

and

follow

the

accounting

and

reporting

guidance

applicable

to

investment

companies

under

the

Financial

Accounting

Standards

Board

("FASB")

Accounting

Standards

Codification

("ASC")

Companies.

The

following

is

a

summary

of

the

significant

accounting

policies

consistently

followed

by

each

Fund

in

the

preparation

of

its

financial

statements.

Segment

Reporting

Topic

defines

an

operating

segment

as

a

component

of

a

public

entity

that

engages

in

business

activities

from

which

it

may

recognize

revenues

and

incur

expenses,

has

operating

results

that

are

regularly

reviewed

by

its

chief

operating

decision

maker

("CODM")

to

assess

performance

and

make

resource

allocation

decisions.

VIA

serves

as

the

CODM.

Since

VIA

evaluates

the

performance

of

each

Fund

holistically

as

outlined

in

the

Fund's

prospectus,

each

Fund

is

a

single

reporting

segment.

VIA

uses

the

holdings

composition

data,

total

returns,

Fund

expense

information,

and

share

transactions

presented

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements

to

assess

the

single

segment

performance

and

make

resource

allocation

decisions.

The

accounting

policies

of

the

segment

are

the

same

as

those

described

in

the

summary

of

significant

accounting

policies.

Segment

assets

and

significant

segment

expenses

are

reflected

in

each

Funds'

Statement

of

Assets

Security

Valuation

The

Funds

value

portfolio

instruments

according

to

securities

valuation

procedures

and

pricing

sources

and

services,

which

include

market

value

procedures,

fair

value

procedures,

other

key

valuation

procedures

and

a

description

of

the

pricing

sources

and

services

used

by

the

Funds.

With

respect

to

a

Fund's

investments

that

do

not

have

readily

available

market

quotations,

the

Board

of

Trustees

("the

Board")

has

designated

VIA

as

the

valuation

designee

to

perform

fair

valuations

pursuant

to

Rule

2a-5

under

the

Investment

Company

Act.

U.S.

GAAP

defines

fair

value

as

the

price

that

a

Fund

would

receive

to

sell

an

asset

or

pay

to

transfer

a

liability

in

an

orderly

transaction

between

market

participants

at

the

measurement

date.

It

establishes

a

fair

value

hierarchy

that

prioritizes

inputs

to

valuation

methods,

requires

a

separate

disclosure

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

for

each

major

category

of

assets

and

liabilities,

and

segregates

fair

value

measurements

into

levels

(Level

1,

2,

and

3).

Inputs

may

be

observable

or

unobservable

and

refer

broadly

to

the

assumptions

that

market

participants

would

use

in

pricing

the

asset

or

liability.

Observable

inputs

reflect

the

assumptions

market

participants

would

use

in

pricing

the

asset

or

liability

based

on

market

data

obtained

from

sources

independent

of

the

reporting

entity.

Unobservable

inputs

reflect

the

reporting

entity's

own

assumptions

about

the

assumptions

that

market

participants

would

use

in

pricing

the

asset

or

liability

developed

based

on

the

best

information

available

under

the

circumstances.

The

inputs

or

methodology

used

for

valuing

securities

are

not

necessarily

an

indication

of

the

risk

associated

with

investing

in

those

securities.

Levels

1,

and

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

defined

as

follows:

Level

—

Unadjusted

quoted

prices

in

active

markets

for

identical

assets

or

liabilities

that

the

Funds

have

the

ability

to

access.

Level

—

Observable

inputs

other

than

quoted

prices

included

in

Level

that

are

observable,

for

the

asset

or

liability,

either

directly

or

indirectly.

These

inputs

may

include

quoted

prices

for

the

identical

instrument

in

an

inactive

market,

prices

for

similar

instruments

in

markets

that

are

active,

interest

rates,

prepayment

speeds,

credit

risk,

yield

curves,

default

rates

and

similar

data.

Level

—

Unobservable

inputs

for

the

asset

or

liability,

to

the

extent

relevant

observable

inputs

are

not

available.

The

availability

of

observable

inputs

can

vary

from

security

to

security

and

is

affected

by

a

wide

variety

of

factors,

including,

for

example,

the

type

of

security,

whether

the

security

is

new

and

not

yet

established

in

the

marketplace,

the

liquidity

of

markets,

and

other

characteristics

particular

to

the

security.

To

the

extent

that

valuation

is

based

on

models

or

inputs

that

are

less

observable

or

unobservable

in

the

market,

the

determination

of

fair

value

requires

more

judgment.

Accordingly,

the

degree

of

judgment

exercised

in

determining

fair

value

is

greatest

for

instruments

categorized

in

Level

3. The

inputs

used

to

measure

fair

value

may

fall

into

different

levels

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

In

such

cases,

for

disclosure

purposes,

the

level

in

the

fair

value

hierarchy

within

which

the

fair

value

measurement

falls

is

determined

based

on

the

lowest

level

input

that

is

significant

to

the

fair

value

measurement

in

its

entirety.

The

valuation

techniques

and

significant

inputs

used

in

determining

the

fair

market

values

of

financial

instruments

categorized

as

Level

and

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

as

follows:

Equity

securities,

including

common

and

preferred

stock,

short

securities,

Exchange

Traded

Funds

("ETFs"),

and

restricted

securities

that

are

traded

on

a

national

exchange

(or

reported

on

the

NASDAQ

national

market),

are

stated

at

the

last

reported

sales

price

on

the

day

of

valuation

or

official

closing

price,

as

applicable.

Equity

securities

and

ETFs

traded

on

the

NASDAQ

are

valued

in

accordance

with

the

NASDAQ

Official

Closing

Price,

which

may

not

be

the

last

If

on

a

particular

day

an

equity

security

or

ETF

does

not

trade,

then

the

mean

between

the

bid

and

ask

prices

is

used,

which

approximates

fair

Securities

listed

on

a

are

at

the

official

on

the

foreign

on

which

the

if

Foreign

equity

securities

for

which

an

official

is

not

available

are

at

the

NAV.

U.S.

government

and

agency

securities

are

valued

at

the

evaluated

price,

which

approximates

fair

value.

To

the

extent

these

securities

are

actively

traded,

and

valuation

adjustments

are

not

applied,

they

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

equities

traded

on

or

valued

by

to

similar

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

Certain

foreign

equity

securities

may

be

fair

valued

using

a

pricing

service

that

considers

the

correlation

of

the

patterns

of

the

foreign

security

to

the

intraday

in

the

U.S.

such

as

American

service

providers

that

use

broker-dealer

factors.

Derivatives

may

be

classified

into

two

that

they

are

traded:

privately

over-the-counter

("OTC")

derivatives

that

or

intermediary

and

exchange-traded

derivatives

that

are

or

other

regulated

exchanges.

OTC

derivatives

are

normally

valued

on

the

basis

of

broker-dealer

quotations

or

pricing

service

providers.

Depending

on

the

product

and

the

terms

of

the

transaction,

the

value

of

the

derivative

instrument

can

be

estimated

by

a

pricing

service

provider

using

a

series

of

techniques,

including

simulation

pricing

models.

The

pricing

models

use

inputs

that

are

observed

from

actively

markets

such

as

issuer

details,

indices,

spreads,

interest

rates,

yield

curves,

dividends

and

Level

Fair

Value

Investments

The

valuation

techniques

and

significant

inputs

used

in

determining

the

fair

values

of

financial

instruments

classified

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy

are

as

follows:

Securities

and

other

assets

for

which

market

quotes

are

not

readily

available,

or

are

not

reliable,

are

valued

at

fair

value

as

determined

in

good

faith

by

VIA

and

are

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Market

quotes

are

considered

not

readily

available

in

circumstances

where

there

is

an

absence

of

current

or

reliable

market-based

data

(e.g.,

trade

information

or

broker

quotes).

When

VIA

applies

fair

valuation

methods

that

use

significant

unobservable

inputs

to

determine

a

Fund's

NAV,

securities

will

not

be

priced

on

the

basis

of

quotes

from

the

primary

market

in

which

they

are

traded,

but

instead

may

be

priced

by

another

method

that

VIA

believes

accurately

reflects

fair

value

and

will

be

categorized

as

Level

of

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

Fair

value

pricing

may

require

subjective

determinations

about

the

value

of

a

security.

While

the

securities

valuation

procedures

are

intended

to

result

in

a

calculation

of

a

Fund's

NAV

that

fairly

reflects

security

values

as

of

the

time

of

pricing,

the

process

cannot

guarantee

that

fair

values

determined

by

VIA

would

accurately

reflect

the

price

that

a

Fund

could

obtain

for

a

security

if

it

were

to

dispose

of

that

security

as

of

the

time

of

pricing

(for

instance,

in

a

forced

or

distressed

sale).

The

prices

used

by

a

Fund

may

differ

from

the

value

that

would

be

realized

if

the

security

was

sold.

VIA

employs

third-party

pricing

vendors

to

provide

fair

value

measurements.

VIA

oversees

third-party

pricing

service

providers

in

order

to

support

the

valuation

process.

VIA

may

also

utilize

the

Funds'

sub-administrator

to

assist

with

the

determination

of

the

hierarchy

level

for

fair

values

securities

and

in

completing

the

required

financial

reporting

disclosure

for

Level

fair

value

securities.

For

fair

valuations

using

significant

unobservable

inputs,

U.S.

GAAP

requires

a

reconciliation

of

the

beginning

to

ending

balances

for

reported

fair

values

that

present

changes

attributable

to

total

realized

and

unrealized

gains

or

losses,

purchases

and

sales,

and

transfers

in/out

of

the

Level

category

during

the

period.

Additionally,

U.S.

GAAP

requires

quantitative

information

regarding

the

significant

unobservable

inputs

used

in

the

determination

of

fair

value

of

assets

categorized

as

Level

in

the

fair

value

hierarchy.

In

accordance

with

the

requirements

of

U.S.

GAAP,

a

fair

value

hierarchy,

a

Level

reconciliation

and

an

additional

disclosure

about

fair

value

measurements,

if

any,

has

been

included

in

the

Presentation

of

Portfolio

Holdings

for

each

respective

Fund.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

had

no

transfers

into

or

out

of

Level

of

the

fair

hierarchy.

Investment

Transactions

Investment

transactions

are

reflected

as

of

the

trade

date

for

financial

reporting

purposes.

This

may

cause

the

NAV

stated

in

the

financial

statements

to

be

different

from

the

NAV

at

which

shareholders

may

transact.

Realized

gains

and

losses

from

securities

transactions,

if

applicable,

are

recorded

on

the

basis

of

specific

identified

cost

incurred

within

a

particular

Fund.

Investment

Income

Dividend

income

is

recorded

net

of

applicable

withholding

taxes

on

the

ex-dividend

date,

except

that

certain

dividends

from

foreign

securities

are

recorded

as

soon

as

the

Funds

are

informed

of

the

dividend,

subsequent

to

the

ex-dividend

date.

To

the

extent

the

dividend

represents

a

return

of

capital

or

capital

gain

for

tax

purposes,

reclassifications

are

made

which

may

be

based

on

management's

estimates.

Interest

income

is

recorded

daily

on

the

accrual

basis.

The

Funds

classify

gains

and

losses

realized

on

prepayments

received

on

mortgage-backed

securities

as

an

adjustment

to

interest

income.

Losses

realized

on

principal

paydowns

may

result

in

negative

interest

income

on

the

Fund's

Statement

of

Operations

if

there

is

insufficient

interest

income

to

offset

such

losses.

All

premiums

and

discounts,

including

original

discounts,

are

amortized/accreted

using

the

effective

interest

method.

Debt

securities

may

be

placed

in

a

non-accrual

status

and

related

interest

may

be

reduced

by

stopping

Revenue

Code

of

1986,

as

amended

(the

"Code").

If

a

Fund

so

qualifies,

it

will

not

be

subject

to

federal

income

tax

on

the

portion

of

its

income

and

gains

that

it

distributes

to

shareholders.

Each

Fund

intends

to

comply

with

the

diversification

requirements

of

Section

817(h)

of

the

Code

and

the

Treasury

regulations

promulgated

thereunder

such

that

the

owners

of

Variable

Contracts

should

not

currently

be

subject

to

federal

income

tax

on

distributions

by

a

Fund

of

its

net

investment

income

and

net

realized

capital

gains

that

are

left

to

accumulate

in

the

contracts

or

under

a

qualified

pension

or

retirement

plan.

The

Funds

comply

with

the

authoritative

guidance

for

uncertainty

in

income

taxes

which

requires

management

to

determine

whether

a

tax

position

of

the

Funds

is

more

likely

than

not

to

be

sustained

upon

examination,

including

resolution

of

any

related

appeals

or

litigation

processes,

based

on

the

technical

merits

of

the

position.

For

tax

positions

meeting

the

more

likely

than

not

threshold,

the

tax

amount

recognized

in

the

financial

statements

is

reduced

by

the

largest

benefit

that

has

a

greater

than

50%

likelihood

of

being

realized

upon

ultimate

settlement

with

the

relevant

taxing

authority.

Management

determined

that

no

accruals

need

to

be

made

in

the

financial

statements

due

to

uncertain

tax

positions.

Management

continually

reviews

and

adjusts

the

Funds'

liability

for

income

taxes

based

on

analyses

of

tax

laws

and

regulations,

as

well

as

their

interpretations,

and

other

relevant

factors.

Each

Fund

files

a

U.S.

tax

return.

The

Funds

have

analyzed

the

tax

positions

taken

or

expected

to

be

taken

on

the

Funds'

federal

income

tax

return

from

the

period

from

September

4,

2024

through

the

period

ended

December

31,

2024,

and

have

concluded

that

no

provision

for

federal

income

tax

is

required

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements.

If

applicable,

the

Funds

recognize

interest

accrued

on

unrecognized

tax

benefits

in

interest

expense

and

penalties

in

other

expenses

on

the

Statement

of

Operations.

During

the

period

from

January

1,

2025

through

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds

did

not

incur

any

interest

or

tax

penalties.

The

Funds

are

not

aware

of

any

tax

positions

for

which

it

is

reasonably

possible

that

the

total

amounts

of

unrecognized

tax

benefits

will

significantly

change

in

the

next

twelve

months.

Dividends

and

Distributions

to

Shareholders

Each

Fund

intends

to

pay

dividends

at

least

annually

from

its

net

investment

income.

Capital

gains,

if

any,

may

be

paid

at

least

annually.

A

Fund

may

distribute

dividends

and

capital

gains

more

frequently,

if

necessary,

in

order

to

reduce

or

eliminate

federal

excise

or

income

taxes

on

the

Fund.

The

amount

of

any

distribution

will

vary,

and

there

is

no

guarantee

a

Fund

will

pay

either

dividends

or

capital

gain

distributions.

Dividends

and

distributions

from

a

Fund

will

be

automatically

reinvested

in

shares

of

that

Fund

unless

the

shareholder

elects

to

receive

distributions

in

cash.

The

timing

and

characterization

of

certain

income

and

capital

gain

distributions

are

determined

in

accordance

with

federal

tax

regulations

which

may

differ

from

U.S.

GAAP.

As

a

result,

net

investment

income

and

net

realized

gain

(or

loss)

on

investments

and

foreign

currency-related

transactions

for

a

reporting

period

may

differ

significantly

from

distributions

during

such

period.

The

differences

between

tax

regulations

and

U.S.

GAAP

primarily

relate

to

investments

in

options,

futures,

forward

contracts,

swap

contracts,

passive

foreign

investment

companies,

foreign-denominated

investments,

mortgage-backed

securities,

certain

securities

sold

at

a

loss,

wash

sale

deferrals

and

capital

loss

carryforwards.

Accordingly,

the

Funds

may

periodically

make

reclassifications

among

certain

of

their

capital

accounts

without

impacting

their

NAVs.

Expenses

The

Funds

pay

their

own

expenses

other

than

those

expressly

assumed

by

VIA,

the

Funds'

adviser

and

administrator.

Most

expenses

can

be

directly

attributed

to

the

individual

Funds.

Expenses

which

cannot

be

directly

attributed

to

a

specific

Fund

are

allocated

among

all

Funds

principally

based

on

their

relative

net

assets.

Foreign

Currency

Translations

The

books

and

records

of

the

Funds

are

maintained

in

U.S.

dollars.

Foreign

currency

amounts

and

transactions

of

the

are

translated

into

(a) Fair

at

arise

from

in

the

value

of

assets

and

liabilities,

other

than

investments

in

securities,

as

a

result

of

changes

in

the

exchange

rates.

The

Funds

do

not

isolate

that

portion

of

the

results

of

operations

of

the

Funds

that

arises

as

a

result

of

changes

in

rates

from

that

portion

that

arises

from

changes

in

prices

of

investments

during

the

period.

Such

fluctuations

are

included

with

the

net

realized

and

unrealized

gain

or

loss

from

investments.

However,

for

federal

income

tax

purposes,

the

Funds

do

isolate

the

effects

of

changes

in

foreign

exchange

rates

from

the

fluctuations

arising

from

changes

in

market

for

realized

(or

on

Foreign

currency

spot

contracts

are

categorized

as

Level

Derivatives

The

Funds

may

invest

in

derivatives.

Derivatives

are

instruments

or

agreements

whose

value

is

derived

from

an

underlying

security

or

index.

They

include,

among

others,

options,

futures,

swaps

and

forwards.

These

instruments

offer

unique

characteristics

and

risks

that

facilitate

the

Funds'

investment

strategies.

The

Funds

typically

use

derivatives

in

three

ways:

exposing

cash

to

markets,

risk

management

(hedging)

purposes

and

return

enhancement.

In

addition,

certain

Funds

may

enter

into

foreign

currency

exchange

contracts

for

trade

settlement

purposes.

Certain

Funds

may

pursue

their

strategy

of

being

fully

invested

by

exposing

cash

to

the

performance

of

appropriate

markets

by

purchasing

securities

and/or

derivatives.

This

is

intended

to

cause

such

Funds

to

perform

as

though

cash

were

actually

invested

in

those

markets.

Hedging

may

be

used

by

certain

Funds

to

limit

or

control

risks,

such

as

adverse

movements

in

exchange

rates

and

interest

rates.

Return

enhancement

can

be

accomplished

through

the

use

of

derivatives

in

a

Fund,

including

using

derivatives

as

a

substitute

for

holding

physical

securities,

and

using

them

to

express

various

macro

views

(e.g.,

interest

rate

movements,

currency

movements,

and

macro

credit

strategies).

By

purchasing

certain

instruments,

the

Funds

may

more

effectively

achieve

the

desired

portfolio

characteristics

that

assist

them

in

meeting

their

investment

objectives.

Depending

on

how

the

derivatives

are

structured

and

utilized,

the

risks

associated

with

them

may

vary

widely.

These

risks

include,

but

are

not

limited

to,

market

risk,

liquidity

risk,

leveraging

risk,

counterparty

risk,

basis

risk,

reinvestment

risk,

political

risk,

prepayment

risk,

extension

risk,

operational

risk,

legal

risk,

valuation

risk

and

credit

risk.

Futures,

certain

options

and

cleared

swaps

are

traded

or

cleared

on

an

exchange

or

central

exchange

clearing

house.

Exchange-

traded

or

exchange-cleared

transactions

generally

present

less

counterparty

risk

to

a

Fund.

The

exchange's

clearing

house

stands

between

the

Fund

and

the

broker

to

the

contract

and

therefore,

credit

risk

is

generally

limited

to

the

failure

of

the

clearing

house

and

the

clearing

member.

Cleared

swap

contracts

are

subject

to

clearing

house

rules,

including

initial

and

variation

margin

requirement,

daily

settlement

of

obligations

and

the

clearing

house

guarantee

of

payments

to

the

broker.

There

is,

however,

still

insolvency

risk

of

the

broker

with

respect

to

any

margin

held

in

the

broker's

customer

accounts.

While

clearing

members

are

required

to

segregate

customer

assets

from

their

own

assets,

in

the

event

of

insolvency,

there

may

be

a

shortfall

in

the

amount

of

margin

held

by

the

broker

for

its

clients.

Collateral

and

margin

requirements

for

exchange-traded

or

exchange-cleared

derivatives

are

established

through

regulation,

as

well

as

set

by

the

broker

or

applicable

clearing

house.

Margin

for

exchange-

traded

and

exchange-cleared

transactions

are

detailed

in

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

as

receivables

for

variation

margin

on

futures

contracts

and

payables

for

variation

margin

on

futures

contracts.

Securities

and

cash

pledged

as

collateral

are

reflected

as

assets

on

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

as

either

a

component

of

investments

at

fair

value

(securities)

or

receivable

from

broker.

Cash

collateral

received

is

not

typically

held

in

a

segregated

account

and

as

such

is

reflected

as

a

liability

on

the

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities

as

due

to

broker.

Typically,

the

Funds

and

counterparties

are

not

permitted

to

repledge,

rehypothecate

or

otherwise

use

collateral

pledged

by

the

Futures

Contracts

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

futures

contracts

(i.e.,

interest

rate,

foreign

currency

and

index

futures

contracts).

The

face

or

contract

value

of

these

instruments

reflect

the

extent

of

the

Funds'

exposure

to

off

balance

sheet

risk.

The

primary

risks

associated

with

the

use

of

futures

contracts

are

an

imperfect

correlation

between

the

change

in

fair

value

of

the

securities

held

by

the

Funds

and

the

prices

of

futures

contracts,

and

the

possibility

of

an

illiquid

market.

Upon

entering

into

a

futures

contract,

the

Funds

are

required

to

deposit

with

a

broker

an

amount,

termed

the

initial

margin,

which

typically

represents

5%

to

10%

of

the

purchase

price

indicated

in

the

futures

contract.

Payments

to

and

from

the

broker,

known

as

variation

margin,

are

typically

required

to

be

made

on

a

daily

basis

as

the

price

of

the

futures

contract

fluctuates.

Changes

in

initial

settlement

value

are

accounted

for

as

unrealized

appreciation

(depreciation)

until

the

contracts

are

terminated,

at

which

time

realized

gains

and

losses

are

recognized.

For

the

period

ended

June

30,

2025,

the

following

Funds

entered

into

futures

contracts

primarily

for

the

strategies

listed

below:

Mortgage-Related

and

Other

Asset-Backed

Securities

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

mortgage

or

other

asset-backed

securities

("ABS").

These

securities

may

include

mortgage

instruments

issued

by

U.S.

government

agencies

("agency

mortgages")

or

those

issued

by

private

entities

("non-

agency

mortgages").

Specific

types

of

instruments

may

include

reverse

mortgages,

mortgage

pass-through

securities,

collateralized

mortgage

obligations

("CMO"),

commercial

mortgage-backed

securities,

mortgage

dollar

rolls,

CMO

residuals,

stripped

mortgage-backed

securities

and

other

securities

that

directly

or

indirectly

represent

a

participation

in,

or

are

secured

by

a

payable

from,

mortgage

loans

on

real

property.

Forward

Commitments

Certain

Funds

may

contract

to

purchase

securities

for

a

fixed

price

at

a

future

date

beyond

customary

settlement

time.

The

price

of

the

underlying

securities

and

the

date

when

the

securities

will

be

delivered

and

paid

for

are

fixed

at

the

time

the

transaction

is

negotiated.

A

Fund

may

dispose

of

a

forward

commitment

transaction

prior

to

settlement

if

it

is

appropriate

to

do

so

and

may

realize

short-term

gains

(or

losses)

upon

such

sale.

Certain

Funds

may

also

invest

in

to-be-announced

("TBA")

mortgage-backed

securities.

A

TBA

security

is

a

forward

mortgage-

backed

securities

trade

in

which

a

seller

agrees

to

issue

a

TBA

mortgage-backed

security

at

a

future

date.

The

securities

are

purchased

and

sold

on

a

forward

commitment

basis

with

an

approximate

principal

amount

and

maturity

date.

A

Fund

may

enter

into

TBA

commitments

to

purchase

securities

and/or

enter

into

TBA

sale

commitments

to

hedge

its

portfolio

positions,

to

sell

securities

it

owns

under

delayed

delivery

arrangements,

or

take

a

short

position

in

mortgage-backed

securities.

Due

to

timing

differences,

TBAs

may

be

reflected

as

Securities

Sold

Short

in

the

Schedule

of

Investments.

The

actual

principal

amount

and

maturity

date

will

be

determined

upon

settlement

when

the

specific

mortgage

pools

are

assigned.

These

securities

are

within

the

parameters

of

industry

"good

delivery"

standards.

These

transactions

involve

a

commitment

by

a

Fund

to

purchase

securities

for

a

predetermined

price

or

yield

with

payment

and

delivery

taking

place

more

than

three

days

in

the

future,

or

after

a

period

longer

than

the

customary

settlement

period

for

that

type

of

security.

No

interest

will

be

earned

by

a

Fund

on

such

purchases

until

the

securities

are

delivered;

however,

the

market

value

may

change

prior

to

delivery.

Inflation-Indexed

Bonds

Certain

Funds

may

invest

in

inflation-indexed

securities,

which

are

typically

bonds

or

notes

designed

to

provide

a

return

higher

than

the

rate

of

inflation

(based

on

a

designated

index)

if

held

to

maturity.

A

common

type

of

inflation-indexed

security

is

a

U.S.

Treasury

Inflation-Protected

Security

("TIPS").

The

principal

of

a

TIPS

increases

with

inflation

and

decreases

with

deflation,

as

measured

by

the

Consumer

Price

Index.

When

a

TIPS

matures,

the

adjusted

principal

or

original

principal

is

paid,

whichever

is

greater.

TIPS

pay

interest

twice

a

year,

at

a

fixed

rate.

The

rate

is

applied

to

the

adjusted

principal;

so,

like

the

principal,

interest

payments,

in

the

form

of

investment

income,

rise

with

inflation

and

fall

with

deflation.

VIA

and

the

have

contractually

agreed,

until

September

6,

2026,

to

waive

all

or

a

to

#### Ownership
As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

following

table

includes

shareholders

of

record

with

greater

than

10%

of

the

total

outstanding

shares

of

each

respective

Fund:

7. #### Restricted

#### Securities
Restricted

Securities

are

subject

to

contractual

restrictions

on

resale,

are

often

issued

in

private

placement

transactions,

and

are

not

registered

under

the

Securities

Act

of

1933,

as

amended

("the

Act").

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

restricted

securities

held

in

the

Funds

were

acquired

under

Rule

144A

of

the

Act

and

may

be

sold

to

qualified

institutional

buyers

in

transactions

exempt

from

registration.

As

of

June

30,

2025,

the

Funds'

exposure

to

restricted

securities

(as

a

percentage

of

net

assets)

was

as

follows:

8. #### Contractual

#### Obligations
In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Funds

may

enter

into

contracts

that

contain

a

variety

of

representations

which

provide

general

indemnifications.

The

Funds'

maximum

exposure

under

these

arrangements

is

unknown

as

this

would

involve

future

claims

that

may

be

made

against

the

Funds

that

have

not

yet

occurred.

However,

the

Funds

expect

the

risk

of

loss

to

be

remote.

9. #### Risk

#### Factors
In

the

normal

course

of

business,

the

Funds

trade

financial

instruments

and

enter

into

financial

transactions

where

risk

of

potential

loss

exists

due

to

changes

in

the

market

(market

risk)

or

failure

of

the

other

party

to

a

transaction

to

perform

(credit

risk).

Similar

to

credit

risk,

the

Funds

may

also

be

exposed

to

counterparty

risk

or

risk

that

an

institution

or

other

entity

with

which

the

Funds

have

unsettled

or

open

transactions

will

default.

The

potential

loss

could

exceed

the

value

of

the

relevant

assets

recorded

in

the

Funds'

financial

statements

(the

"Assets").

The

Assets

consist

principally

of

cash

due

from

counterparties

and

investments.

The

extent

of

the

Funds'

exposure

to

market,

credit

and

counterparty

risks

with

respect

to

the

Assets

approximates

their

carrying

value

as

recorded

in

the

Funds'

Statements

of

Assets

and

Liabilities.

Global

economies

and

financial

markets

are

increasingly

interconnected

and

political

and

economic

conditions

(including

instability

and

volatility

due

to

international

trade

disputes)

and

events

(including

natural

disasters,

pandemics,

epidemics,

social

unrest

and

government

shutdowns)

in

one

country,

region

or

financial

market

may

adversely

impact

issuers

in

a

different

country,

region

or

financial

market.

As

a

result,

issuers

of

securities

held

by

a

Fund

may

experience

significant

declines

in

the

value

of

their

assets

and

even

cease

operations.

This

could

occur

whether

or

not

the

Fund

invests

in

securities

of

issuers

located

in

or

with

significant

exposure

to

the

countries

directly

affected.

Such

conditions

and/or

events

may

not

have

the

same

impact

on

all

types

of

securities

and

may

expose

a

Fund

to

greater

market

and

liquidity

risk

and

potential

difficulty

in

valuing

portfolio

instruments

held.

This

could

cause

a

Fund

to

underperform

other

types

of

investments.

From

time

to

time,

outbreaks

of

infectious

illness,

public

health

emergencies

and

other

similar

issues

("public

health

events")

may

occur

in

one

or

more

countries

around

the

globe.

Such

public

The

Sub-Advisers

provide

investment

sub-advisory

services

to

the

Funds.

In

connection

with

its

deliberations,

the

Board

considered

information

requested

on

behalf

of

the

Independent

Trustees

and

prepared

by

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Advisers

including

memoranda

and

other

materials

provided

to

the

Trustees

prior

to

and

during

the

meetings.

The

information

provided

to

the

Trustees

described,

among

other

things,

the

services

to

be

provided

by

and

fees

paid

to

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Advisers;

related

performance

information;

and

other

matters.

The

Board

considered

that

the

Adviser

had

conducted

extensive

due

diligence

on

the

proposed

Sub-Advisers

from

an

investment

management,

operational

and

compliance

perspective.

The

Independent

Trustees

also

met

in

executive

session

during

each

meeting

to

discuss

the

Agreements

and

review

the

information

provided.

The

Independent

Trustees

were

assisted

by

independent

legal

counsel

prior

to

and

during

the

meetings

and

during

their

deliberations

regarding

the

Agreements,

and

also

received

from

legal

counsel

materials

addressing,

among

other

things,

the

legal

standards

applicable

to

their

consideration

of

the

Agreements.

As

applicable,

the

Board

also

considered

the

foregoing

and

other

information

provided

at

the

Board's

April

2-3,

2024

meeting.

In

approving

the

Agreements

with

respect

to

each

Fund,

each

Trustee,

after

considering

all

factors

they

deemed

relevant,

reached

a

determination,

with

the

assistance

of

Independent

Trustees'

counsel

and

fund

counsel

and

through

the

exercise

of

their

own

business

judgment,

that

the

proposed

fee

payable

to

the

Adviser

and

the

Sub-Advisers,

as

applicable,

was

fair

and

reasonable

and

that

the

approval

of

the

Agreements

was

in

the

best

interests

of

each

applicable

Fund

and

its

investors.

The

Board

considered

each

Fund

and

each

Agreement

separately.

In

considering

the

Agreements,

the

Trustees

did

not

identify

any

particular

factor

or

information

that

was

all-important

or

controlling,

and

each

Trustee

may

have

given

different

weights

to

different

factors

and,

thus,

each

Trustee

may

have

had

a

different

basis

for

his

or

her

decision.

Although

the

Board

gave

attention

to

all

information

provided,

some

of

the

primary

factors

the

Board

deemed

relevant

to

its

decision

to

approve

the

Agreements

with

respect

to

each

Fund

are

discussed

below.

Appointment

of

as

Investment

Adviser

and

Approval

of

the

Investment

Management

Agreements

(All

Funds)

• Nature,

Quality

and

Extent

of

Services

The

Board

evaluated

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided

to

the

Funds

by

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates,

and

the

Adviser's

responsibilities

with

respect

to

each

of

the

Funds.

The

Board

considered

that

the

Adviser

would

be

responsible

for,

among

other

things,

developing

the

investment

strategy

for

the

Funds;

researching,

selecting

and

hiring

any

sub-adviser(s),

and

conducting

on-going

due

diligence

on

and

monitoring

of

any

sub-adviser(s);

overseeing

the

selection

of

investments

for

the

Funds;

monitoring

and

evaluating

the

performance

of

the

Funds;

monitoring

the

investment

operations

and

composition

of

the

Funds

and,

in

connection

therewith,

monitoring

compliance

with

each

Fund's

investment

objective,

policies

and

restrictions,

as

well

as

each

Fund's

compliance

with

applicable

law;

monitoring

brokerage

selection,

commission

and

other

trading

costs,

quality

of

execution,

and

other

brokerage

matters;

coordinating

and

managing

the

flow

of

information

and

communications

relating

to

the

Funds

among

any

sub-adviser

and

other

applicable

parties;

coordinating

responses

to

regulatory

agency

inquiries

relating

to

the

operations

of

the

Trust

and

coordinating

litigation

matters

involving

the

Adviser

and

the

Trust;

and

implementing

Board

directives

as

they

relate

to

the

Funds.

The

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

the

Adviser's

process

for

selecting

and

monitoring

any

sub-advisers

to

the

Funds

and

the

other

service

providers

to

each

Fund,

as

well

as

its

process

for

evaluating,

monitoring

and

overseeing

any

sub-adviser's

investment

strategy.

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

information

regarding

the

qualifications

and

experience

of,

and

resources

available

to,

the

Adviser

personnel

who

would

perform

those

functions

with

respect

to

the

Funds.

The

Board

further

considered

that

the

Adviser

also

provides

the

Trust

with

personnel,

including

Trust

officers,

in

connection

with

carrying

out

its

responsibilities

and

is

responsible

for

coordinating

the

development

of

new

initiatives

and

evaluating

the

impact

of

proposed

products

and

services

on

the

Trust

and

its

assets.

The

Board

also

considered

that

the

Adviser

has

assumed

significant

entrepreneurial

risk

in

sponsoring

the

Funds

and

that

the

Adviser

would

bear

and

assume

significant

ongoing

risks,

including

investment,

operational,

enterprise,

litigation,

regulatory

and

compliance

risks,

with

respect

to

each

Fund.

The

Board

considered

that

the

Adviser's

responsibilities

with

respect

to

the

Funds

Advisory

Contracts

would

include

monitoring

of

investment,

operational,

enterprise,

litigation,

regulatory

and

compliance

risks

as

they

relate

to

the

Funds.

The

Board

also

considered

the

benefits

that

would

be

provided

to

shareholders

from

participation

in

a

Fund

sponsored

by

the

Adviser,

including

the

benefits

of

investing

in

a

fund

that

is

part

of

a

large

fund

complex

that

offers

a

wide

range

of

portfolios,

sub-advisers

and

investment

styles.

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

administrative,

investor

servicing

and

distribution

services

that

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates

would

provide

to

the

Funds

and

their

shareholders.

The

Board

noted

that

the

Funds

did

not

have

any

performance

history

as

each

is

a

newly

created

series

of

the

Trust

and

none

had

commenced

operations

as

of

the

date

of

the

meeting.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined

that

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided

by

the

Adviser

were

appropriate

for

the

Funds.

• Expenses

The

Board

considered

each

Fund's

proposed

advisory

fee

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided

by

the

Adviser.

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

the

relative

level

of

the

sub-advisory

fee

to

be

paid

to

each

Fund's

sub-adviser

and

the

advisory

fee

to

be

retained

by

the

Adviser

in

light

of,

among

other

factors,

the

nature

and

extent

of

responsibilities

retained,

and

risks

assumed

by

the

Adviser

and

not

delegated

to

or

assumed

by

a

sub-adviser.

With

respect

to

the

Advisory

Agreement,

the

Board

also

considered

information

provided

by

the

Adviser

comparing

the

proposed

advisory

fee

rate

and

expense

ratios

for

each

Fund

to

the

advisory

fee

rates

and

expense

ratios

of

comparable

mutual

funds,

including

information

compiled

with

data

from

Broadridge,

an

independent

provider

of

mutual

fund

industry

data.

In

particular,

the

Board

noted

the

following

information

included

in

the

Broadridge

data:

• With

respect

to

the

Venerable

US

Small

Cap

Fund,

the

Board

noted

that

the

Fund's

proposed

Management

Fee

was

slightly

above

the

median

of

its

expense

group

and

similar

to

the

median

of

its

expense

universe.

In

addition,

the

Board

noted

the

Fund's

estimated

total

expenses

were

among

the

lowest

in

its

expense

group

and

universe.

• With

to

the

Venerable

the

noted

in

it

was

not

The

Board

also

noted

the

estimated

were

higher

its

higher

than

median

of

expense

group,

although

not

significantly

so,

and

below

the

median

of

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

that

the

Adviser

had

contractually

agreed

to

make

payments

or

waive

all

or

a

portion

of

its

fees

so

that

each

Fund's

net

expense

ratios

would

not

exceed

certain

levels

as

set

forth

in

each

Fund's

prospectus.

The

Board

also

noted

that,

to

the

extent

that

the

Adviser

waived

fees

pursuant

to

the

expense

limitation

arrangement,

the

Fund's

actual

advisory

fee

could

be

lower

than

its

contractual

advisory

fee.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined

that

the

Adviser's

proposed

fee

for

each

Fund

was

fair

and

reasonable.

• Profitability

and

Costs

The

Board

considered

the

anticipated

level

of

profits

to

be

realized

by

the

Adviser

in

connection

with

the

operation

of

each

Fund.

The

Board

referred

to

a

report

included

in

the

meeting

materials

that

included

the

Adviser's

estimated

profitability

by

Fund

for

the

first

year

of

operations.

The

Board

noted

the

report

took

into

account

the

revenue

the

Adviser

would

receive

under

both

the

Advisory

Agreement

and

the

administrative

services

agreement

between

the

Trust

and

the

Adviser

with

respect

to

each

Fund.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board

did

not

consider

the

Adviser's

estimated

profitability

to

be

excessive

but

noted

that

it

would

continue

to

periodically

evaluate

profitability.

• Economies

of

Scale

The

Board

considered

whether

economies

of

scale

or

efficiencies

would

be

realized

by

the

Adviser

as

the

Funds

grow

larger

and

the

extent

to

which

this

is

reflected

in

the

proposed

advisory

and

administrative

fee

schedules

for

each

Fund.

While

recognizing

that

any

precise

determination

is

inherently

subject

to

assumptions

and

subjective

assessments,

the

Board

considered

that

any

economies

of

scale

or

efficiencies

may

be

shared

with

Funds

and

their

shareholders

in

a

variety

of

ways

including

(i) subsidizing

a

expenses

by

making

payments

or

waiving

all

or

a

portion

of

the

advisory

fee

or

other

fees

so

that

the

Fund's

total

expense

ratio

does

not

exceed

certain

levels,

(ii) setting

the

advisory

fee

or

other

fees

so

that

a

portfolio

is

priced

to

scale,

which

assumes

that

the

Fund

has

sufficient

assets

from

inception

to

operate

at

a

competitive

fee

rate

without

any

fee

waiver

or

expense

reimbursement

from

the

manager,

and

(iii) reinvestment

in,

and

enhancements

to,

the

services

that

a

manager

and

its

affiliates

provide

to

a

Fund

and

its

shareholders.

The

Adviser

explained

that

it

had

agreed,

for

a

period

of

two

years

from

the

commencement

of

operations,

to

assume

certain

expenses

of

each

of

the

Funds

by

making

payments

or

waiving

all

or

a

portion

of

its

and

its

affiliates'

advisory,

administrative

and

other

fees

so

that

each

Fund's

net

expense

ratios

do

not

exceed

certain

contractual

levels.

The

Board

also

considered

that

the

Adviser

could

potentially

share

economies

of

scale

or

efficiencies

with

the

Funds

through

reinvestment

in,

and

enhancements

to,

the

services

that

the

Adviser

provides

to

the

Funds

and

their

shareholders

over

time,

such

as

hiring

additional

personnel,

providing

additional

resources

in

areas

relating

to

management

and

administration

of

the

Funds,

and

the

ongoing

development

of

the

Adviser's

infrastructure.

The

Board

considered

these

factors,

and

the

relationship

they

bore

to

the

fee

charged

to

each

Fund

by

the

Adviser

and

concluded

that

there

would

be

a

reasonable

sharing

of

benefits

from

any

economies

of

scale

or

efficiencies

with

each

Fund

once

it

commences

operations

and

at

reasonably

anticipated

asset

levels.

The

Board

noted,

however,

that

it

would

monitor

future

growth

in

each

Fund's

assets

to

determine

whether

economies

of

scale

or

efficiencies

continued

to

be

reflected

in

the

applicable

Fund's

fee

arrangements.

• Fall-Out

and

Other

Benefits

The

Board

considered

the

extent

to

which

fall-out

benefits

could

accrue

to

the

Adviser

and

its

affiliates

as

a

result

of

the

Adviser's

relationship

with

the

Trust.

In

particular,

the

Board

noted

that

it

was

proposed

that

the

Adviser

would

also

serve

as

the

administrator

for

the

Funds

and

would

receive

compensation

for

acting

in

that

capacity

and

that

it

was

proposed

that

Directed

Services

LLC,

an

affiliate

of

the

Adviser,

receive

payments

through

a

Rule

12b-1

plan

to

compensate

it

for

providing

distribution

and

shareholder

services

to

owners

of

variable

annuity

contracts

and

variable

life

insurance

policies

that

may

invest

in

the

Funds.

The

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser's

affiliated

insurance

company,

as

depositor

of

the

insurance

company

separate

accounts

investing

in

each

of

the

Funds,

would

receive

certain

significant

tax

benefits

associated

with

such

investments

as

well

as

other

potential

benefits.

The

Board

considered

that

the

Funds

would

be

offered

as

investment

options

through

variable

insurance

contracts

offered

and

sold

by

the

Adviser's

insurance

company

affiliate

and

that

the

performance

of

a

Fund

may

impact,

positively

or

negatively,

the

insurance

company's

ability

to

hedge

the

risks

associated

with

guarantees

that

each

insurance

company

may

provide

as

the

issuer

of

such

contracts.

The

Board

also

noted

that

the

Adviser's

insurance

company

affiliate

and

Directed

Services

LLC

each

received

compensation,

which

could

include

sales

charges,

separate

account

fees

and

charges,

and

other

variable

contract

fees

and

charges,

from

the

sale

and

administration

of

these

variable

insurance

contracts.

The

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined

that

it

would

continue

to

review

any

"fall-out"

and

other

benefits

on

an

ongoing

basis.

of

Services

The

evaluated

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

proposed

to

be

provided

to

each

RIM

Fund

by

RIM.

The

Board

considered

RIM's

responsibilities

with

respect

to

each

RIM

Fund

pursuant

to

the

RIM

Agreement,

and

RIM's

relevant

experience.

The

Board

noted

that,

subject

to

the

oversight

of

the

Adviser,

RIM

would

be

responsible

for

making

investment

decisions

with

respect

to

each

RIM

Fund;

placing

with

brokers

or

dealers

orders

for

the

purchase

and

of

investments

for

each

RIM

Fund;

assisting

the

Adviser

in

overseeing

any

RIM

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Advisers

to

a

RIM

Fund;

and

performing

certain

related

administrative

and

compliance

functions.

The

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

RIM's

process

for

selecting

investments

for

each

RIM

Fund,

as

well

as

information

regarding

the

qualifications

and

experience

of

RIM's

portfolio

managers

who

would

provide

services

to

each

RIM

Fund.

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

the

Adviser's

familiarity

with,

and

confidence

in,

RIM,

and

the

results

of

the

Adviser's

due

diligence.

The

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

RIM's

procedures

for

executing

portfolio

transactions

for

each

RIM

Fund

and

RIM's

policies

and

procedures

for

selecting

brokers

and

dealers.

In

addition,

the

Board

considered

information

regarding

RIM's

trading

experience

and

how

RIM

would

seek

to

achieve

"best

execution"

on

behalf

of

each

RIM

Fund.

The

Board

then

reviewed

performance

data

relating

to

RIM's

management

of

other

funds

with

a

similar

investment

strategy

to

those

proposed

for

the

RIM

Funds,

as

compared

to

an

appropriate

benchmark

and

peer

group.

The

Board

also

considered

RIM's

expertise,

resources,

proposed

investment

strategy,

and

personnel

for

advising

each

RIM

Fund.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined,

with

respect

to

each

RIM

Fund,

that

the

nature,

quality,

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided

by

RIM

were

appropriate

for

the

RIM

Funds

in

light

of

their

investment

objective

and,

thus,

supported

a

decision

to

approve

the

amended

Sub-Management

Agreement.

• Fee

With

respect

to

the

RIM

Agreement

relating

to

each

RIM

Fund,

the

Board

considered

the

proposed

sub-advisory

fee

for

RIM

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

proposed

to

be

provided

by

RIM.

The

Board

considered

the

relative

level

of

the

sub-advisory

fee

to

be

paid

to

RIM

with

respect

to

each

RIM

Fund

and

the

advisory

fee

to

be

retained

by

the

Adviser

in

light

of,

among

other

factors,

the

nature

and

extent

of

responsibilities

retained,

and

risks

assumed

by

the

Adviser

and

not

delegated

to

or

assumed

by

RIM.

The

Board

further

noted

that

the

Adviser,

and

not

the

RIM

Funds,

would

pay

RIM

and

that

the

proposed

sub-

advisory

fees

were

negotiated

between

RIM

and

the

Adviser.

Moreover,

the

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser

believed

that

the

fees

agreed

upon

with

RIM

were

reasonable

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality,

and

extent

of

the

investment

sub-advisory

services

to

be

provided.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined,

with

respect

to

each

RIM

Fund,

that

the

proposed

sub-advisory

fee

for

RIM

was

fair

and

reasonable.

• Fall-Out

and

Other

Benefits

The

Board

also

considered

possible

fall-out

benefits

and

other

types

of

benefits

that

could

accrue

to

RIM

and

its

affiliates

as

a

result

of

its

relationship

with

the

Trust.

In

particular,

the

Board

noted

(i) RIM's

affiliated

broker,

Russell

Investments

Implementation

Services,

LLC,

could

receive

commissions

as

it

was

being

considered

for

effecting

portfolio

transactions

for

the

RIM

Funds;

(ii) RIM,

its

affiliates

and

their

fund

complexes

could

obtain

lower

commission

rates

and

more

effective

trade

execution

from

aggregation

of

trades

of

the

RIM

Funds

and

other

clients;

(iii) RIM,

its

affiliates

and

their

fund

complexes

could

benefit

from

fee

schedules

negotiated

with

certain

service

providers

which

are

based

on

global

assets

under

management

(e.g.,

non-discretionary

sub-advisers

and

assisting

in

to

an

The

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

Franklin's

process

for

selecting

for

each

FT

as

well

as

information

regarding

the

qualifications

and

experience

of

Franklin's

portfolio

managers

who

would

provide

services

to

each

FT

The

Board

also

considered

the

Adviser's

familiarity

with,

and

confidence

in,

Franklin,

and

the

results

of

the

Adviser's

due

diligence.

The

Board

also

considered

information

regarding

Franklin's

procedures

for

executing

portfolio

transactions

for

each

FT

and

Franklin's

policies

and

procedures

for

selecting

In

the

considered

information

regarding

Franklin's

trading

experience

and

how

Franklin

would

seek

to

achieve

"best

execution"

on

then

reviewed

for

the

all

representative

of

that

will

The

Board

also

considered

Franklin's

expertise,

resources,

proposed

investment

strategy,

and

personnel

for

advising

each

FT

Fund.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

determined,

with

respect

to

each

FT

Fund,

that

the

nature,

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided

by

Franklin

were

appropriate

for

the

FT

Fund

in

light

of

its

objective

and,

thus,

supported

a

to

approve

the

Franklin

Agreement.

• Fee

With

respect

to

the

Franklin

Agreement

relating

to

each

FT

the

Board

considered

the

proposed

sub-advisory

fee

for

Franklin

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

of

the

services

proposed

to

be

provided

by

Franklin.

The

Board

considered

the

relative

levels

of

the

sub-advisory

fee

to

be

paid

to

Franklin

with

respect

to

each

FT

Fund

and

the

advisory

fee

to

be

retained

by

the

Adviser

in

light

of,

among

other

factors,

the

nature

and

extent

of

responsibilities

retained

and

risks

assumed

by

the

Adviser

and

not

delegated

to

or

assumed

by

Franklin.

The

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser,

and

not

the

FT

Funds,

would

pay

Franklin

and

that

each

proposed

sub-

advisory

fee

was

negotiated

between

Franklin

and

the

Adviser.

Moreover,

the

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser

believes

the

fee

agreed

upon

with

Franklin

is

reasonable

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

investment

services

to

be

provided.

Based

on

its

the

determined,

with

that

the

proposed

for

• Fall-Out

and

Other

Benefits

The

Board

also

considered

possible

fall-out

benefits

and

other

types

of

benefits

that

could

accrue

to

Franklin

as

a

result

of

its

relationship

with

the

In

particular,

the

noted

In

generated

by

the

Research/services

obtained

with

client

generated

by

Franklin's

could

be

shared

The

supported

a

the

RIM

Sub-

Management

Agreements.

• Fee

With

respect

to

each

RIM

Sub-Management

Agreement

relating

to

the

World

Equity

Fund,

the

Board

considered

the

proposed

sub-management

fees

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

proposed

to

be

provided

by

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser.

The

Board

considered

the

relative

levels

of

the

sub-management

fee

to

be

paid

to

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

with

respect

to

the

World

Equity

Fund,

the

sub-advisory

fee

to

be

retained

by

RIM,

and

the

advisory

fee

to

be

retained

by

the

Adviser,

in

light

of,

among

other

factors,

the

nature

and

extent

of

responsibilities

retained

and

risks

assumed

by

the

Adviser

and

not

delegated

to

or

assumed

by

RIM

or

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser.

The

Board

further

noted

that

the

Adviser,

and

not

the

World

Equity

Fund,

would

pay

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-

Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

and

that

the

proposed

non-discretionary

sub-adviser

fees

were

negotiated

between

RIM

and

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser,

with

final

sign-off

by

the

Adviser

prior

to

submission

to

the

Board

for

approval.

Moreover,

the

Board

noted

that

the

Adviser

believes

that

the

fee

agreed

upon

with

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

is

reasonable

in

light

of

the

nature,

quality

and

extent

of

the

services

to

be

provided.

Based

on

its

review,

the

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined,

with

respect

to

the

World

Equity

Fund,

that

the

proposed

non-discretionary

sub-adviser

fee

for

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

is

fair

and

reasonable.

• Fall-Out

and

Other

Benefits

The

Board

also

considered

possible

fall-out

benefits

and

other

types

of

benefits

that

could

accrue

to

each

proposed

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

as

a

result

of

its

relationship

with

the

Trust,

including

greater

exposure

in

the

marketplace.

The

Board

noted

that

each

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

could

benefit

indirectly

from

its

relationship

with

the

World

Equity

Fund,

including

through

the

reputation

of

being

engaged

by

the

Adviser

and

RIM,

and

if

a

RIM

World

Equity

Non-

Discretionary

Sub-Adviser

included

the

World

Fund's

assets

and

performance

record

in

composites

it

used,

which

could

contribute

to

a

RIM

World

Equity

Non-Discretionary

Sub-Adviser's

ability

to

obtain

other

clients

for

their

investment

services.

The

Board,

including

the

Independent

Trustees,

determined

that

it

would

continue

to

review

any

"fall-out"

and

other

benefits

on

an

ongoing

basis.

The

Board

discussed

profitability

and

economies

of

scale

as

factors

of

consideration

and

determined

that

they

were

most

relevant

in

the

context

of

the

Board's

consideration

of

the

Advisory

Agreement

and

the

aggregate

advisory

fee

to

be

paid

by

each
