Dear Shareholders:

**PERFORMANCE & PORTFOLIO CHANGES** 

The Hamlin High Dividend Equity Fund institutional class returned 12.12% in the fourth quarter of 2022, ahead of the S&P 500's 7.56% increase and in line with the Russell 1000 Value Index ETF's (IWD) 12.21%. The Fund slightly lagged the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend ETF's (DVY) 13.43% return. Year-to-date, the Hamlin High Dividend Equity Fund's -3.45% return compares favorably to the S&P 500 Index's -18.11% and the Russell 1000 Value Index ETF's (IWD) -7.74% declines. Hamlin trailed the Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend Index ETF's (DVY) 1.82% in 2022 – largely thanks to its low Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology weightings.

Within the portfolio, relative sector contributors to performance this quarter were Consumer Discretionary, Information Technology, and Communication Services. Relative sector detractors were Financials, Energy, and Materials. The largest individual stock performance contributors were Broadcom Inc., AbbVie, Inc., ConocoPhillips, Genuine Parts Company, and Procter & Gamble Company. The weakest performers were CME Group, Hasbro, Inc., Keurig Dr Pepper Inc., Target Corporation, and Paychex, Inc. During the quarter, we sold Hasbro, Inc.

*Twenty-three of Hamlin's twenty-five year end holdings increased their dividends in 2022, with an average increase of 11.6%. This welcome action validates our research analysis and increases portfolio cash flow. Corporate boards generally announce dividend increases only when they envision strong cash flow growth in the future. While past performance does not predict future results, we note that our current portfolio holdings have increased their dividends at a 9.9% compound annual rate over the last three years*.

**MARKET OUTLOOK** 

Knowing that markets rarely accommodate a consensus opinion, your Hamlin equity team is wondering what could confound the pundits' predictions for economic, earnings, and stock market weakness ahead. Beyond the Depression era, consecutive down years for the stock market are rare with the notable exceptions of 2000-2002 and 1973-1974. The third year of the presidential cycle has been reliably profitable for equity investors, with the S&P 500 Index advancing 18.8% on average with only two down years since 1929.<sup>1</sup>

Perhaps we will achieve the proverbial soft landing, whereby the Fed succeeds in slowing the rate of inflation without tipping us into recession. The inverted yield

curve, shrinking money supply, and the lagged impact from a myriad of global central bank rate hikes should dampen economic activity. Yet GDP would be slowing from an elevated rate of growth. Last quarter, the economy grew 3.2% and the Atlanta Fed GDP tracker currently predicts a 3.8% growth rate for Q1 2023 despite recessionary manufacturing data and recent lay-off announcements. Maybe wage growth, the remaining $900 million in excess savings, and milder inflation<sup>2</sup> can buttress consumer confidence—slowing GDP growth to a sustainable 2-2.5% clip just as the Fed pauses likely in the spring of 2023. A re-opening China could also soften the readily apparent macro headwinds.

If a recession does occur, we should expect an undercut of recent lows. Earnings typically drop 18.7% during downturns.<sup>3</sup> While our conversations with company management teams generally focus on through-the-cycle earnings power, we are trying to estimate earnings in both the soft landing and recessionary scenarios. Any purchases reflect our best assessment of earnings risk in a downturn.

Paying an attractive price for quality businesses that generate ample free cash today *matters* as we believe that discount rates should remain elevated for the foreseeable future. ZIRP<sup>4</sup> is over, and we think the risk-free rate is likely to plateau around 5%. Moreover, the equity risk premium may have increased. We expect margin volatility. Deglobalization and onshoring of supply chains should be costly, and last year's pace of price increases could prove unsustainable. New populist polices such as Modern Monetary Theory may also render the economic cycle inherently more volatile. This dynamic may extend the value sector's recent resurgence.

We remain excited about our companies' long-term revenue growth prospects driven by product cycles and market share gain opportunities, and we expect modest earnings growth for our twenty-five holdings in 2023. We are equally excited about several watchlist companies that meet Hamlin criteria and trade more cheaply than the broader market. Expecting another volatile year for stocks, we are comforted to own quality businesses with an average net debt-to-capital ratio of 37.5% and median 28.3% return on equity.

We remind you that we are not managing your account to track or beat the S&P 500 Index. We don't select securities to align your portfolio with any index's sector weightings or holdings. Our goal is to construct a quality portfolio with high current income. We strive to help our institutions and individual clients meet their spending objectives. We aim to preserve financial security and lifestyles by protecting against inflation with future dividend increases and long-term capital appreciation.

*† The graph is based on only Institutional Class Shares; performance for Investor Class Shares would be lower due to differences in fee structures.* 

*\*If the Adviser had not limited certain expenses, the Fund's total return would have been lower.* 

*The performance data quoted herein represents past performance and the return and value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that, when redeemed, may be worth less than its original cost.* 

*Past performance is no guarantee of future performance and should not be considered as a representation of the future results of the Fund.* 

*The Fund's performance assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains.* 

*Index returns assume reinvestment of dividends and, unlike a Fund's returns, do not reflect any fees or expenses. If such fees and expenses were included in the index returns, the performance would have been lower. Please note that one cannot invest directly in an unmanaged index.* 

*There are no assurances that the Fund will meet its stated objectives. The Fund's holdings and allocations are subject to change because it is actively managed and should not be considered recommendations to buy individual securities.* 

*Returns shown do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.* 

*See definition of comparative index on page 4.*

<br> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**<br>

**1.** **Organization:** 

**The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund** (the "Trust") is organized as a Massachusetts business trust under an Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated February 18, 1997. The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company with 28 funds. The financial statements herein are those of the Hamlin High Dividend Equity Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund is diversified and its investment objective is to seek high current income and long-term capital gain. The financial statements of the remaining funds of the Trust are presented separately. The assets of the Fund are segregated, and a shareholder's interest is limited to the fund in which shares are held.

**2.** **Significant Accounting Policies:** 

The following are significant accounting policies, which are consistently followed in the preparation of the financial statements of the Fund. The Fund is an investment company that applies the accounting and reporting guidance issued in Topic 946 by the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB").

*Use of Estimates* — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

*Security Valuation* — Securities listed on a securities exchange, market or automated quotation system for which quotations are readily available (except for securities traded on NASDAQ), including securities traded over the counter, are valued at the last quoted sale price on an exchange or market (foreign or domestic) on which they are traded on the valuation date (or at approximately 4:00 pm ET if a security's primary exchange is normally open at that time), or, if there is no such reported sale, at the most recent quoted bid price. For securities traded on the NASDAQ Stock Market (the "NASDAQ"), the NASDAQ Official Closing Price will be used. The prices for foreign securities are reported in local currency and converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates.

Securities for which market prices are not "readily available" are required to be fair valued under the 1940 Act.

In December 2020, the SEC adopted Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, establishing requirements to determine fair value in good faith for purposes of the 1940 Act. The rule permits fund boards to designate a fund's investment adviser to perform fair-value determinations, subject to board oversight and certain other conditions. The rule also defines when market quotations are "readily available" for purposes of the 1940 Act and requires a fund to fair value a portfolio investment when a market quotation is not readily available. The SEC also adopted new Rule 31a-4 under the 1940 Act, which sets forth recordkeeping requirements associated with fair-value determinations. The compliance date for Rule 2a-5 and Rule 31a-4 was September 8, 2022.

Effective September 8, 2022, and pursuant to the requirements of Rule 2a-5, the Trust's Board of Trustees (the "Board") designated the Adviser as the Board's valuation designee to perform fair-value determinations for the Fund through a Fair Value Committee (the "Committee") established by the Adviser and approved new Adviser Fair Value Procedures for the Fund. Prior to September 8, 2022, fair-value determinations were performed in accordance with the Trust's Fair Value Procedures established by the Trust's Board and were implemented through a Fair Value Committee designated by the Board.

Some of the more common reasons that may necessitate that a security be valued using fair value procedures include: the security's trading has been halted or suspended; the security has been de-listed from a national exchange; the security's primary trading market is temporarily closed at a time, when under normal conditions, it would be open; the security has not been traded for an extended period of time; the security's primary pricing source is not able or willing to provide a price; or trading of the security is subject to local government-imposed restrictions. In addition, the Fund may fair value its securities if an event that may materially affect the value of the Fund's securities that traded outside of the United States (a "Significant Event") has occurred between the time of the security's last close and the time that the Fund calculates its net asset value. A Significant Event may relate to a single issuer or to an entire market sector. Events that may be Significant Events include, but are not limited to: government actions, natural disasters, armed conflict, acts of terrorism and significant market fluctuations. If the Adviser becomes aware of a Significant Event that has occurred with respect to a security or group of securities after the closing of the exchange or market on which the security or securities principally trade, but before the time at which the Fund calculates its net asset value, it may request that a Committee meeting be called. When a

security is valued in accordance with the fair value procedures, the Committee will determine the value after taking into consideration relevant information reasonably available to the Committee.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. GAAP, the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or
liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (includes quoted prices for similar securities,
interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in active markets, adjusted quoted prices on foreign equity securities that were adjusted in accordance with pricing
procedures approved by the Board, etc.); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 — Prices, inputs or proprietary modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair
value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement. 

*Federal Income Taxes* — It is the Fund's intention to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company for Federal income tax purposes by complying with the appropriate provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), as amended. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made in the financial statements.

The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether it is "more-likely-than-not" (i.e., greater than 50-percent) that each tax position will be sustained upon

examination by a taxing authority based on the technical merits of the position. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Fund did not record any tax provision in the current period. However, management's conclusions regarding tax positions taken may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, examination by tax authorities (i.e., the last 3 year ends, as applicable), on-going analysis of and changes to tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

As of and during the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not recognize any interest or penalties.

*Security Transactions and Investment Income* — Security transactions are accounted for on trade date basis for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in determining realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are based on the specific identification method. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on the accrual basis from settlement date. Certain dividends from foreign securities will be recorded as soon as the Fund is informed of the dividend, if such information is obtained subsequent to the ex-dividend date.

*Return of Capital Estimates* — Distributions received from investments in master limited partnerships ("MLPs") generally are comprised of income and return of capital. The Fund records investment income and return of capital based on estimates made at the time such distributions are received. Such estimates are based on historical information available from each MLP and other industry sources. These estimates may subsequently be revised based on information received from MLPs after their tax reporting periods are concluded.

*Investments in REITs* — Dividend income from Real Estate Investment Trusts ("REITs") is recorded based on the income included in distributions received from the REIT investments using published REIT reclassifications, including some management estimates when actual amounts are not available. Distributions received in excess of this estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments or reclassified to capital gains. The actual amounts of income, return of capital, and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after its fiscal year-end, and may differ from the estimated amounts.

*Master Limited Partnerships* — Entities commonly referred to as "MLPs" are generally organized under state law as limited partnerships or limited liability companies. The Fund intends to primarily invest in MLPs receiving partnership taxation treatment under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, and whose interests or "units" are traded on securities exchanges like shares of corporate stock. To be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, an MLP whose units are traded on a securities exchange must receive at least 90% of its income from qualifying sources such as interest, dividends, real estate rents, gain from the sale or disposition of real property, income and gain from mineral or natural resources activities, income and gain from the transportation or storage of certain fuels, and, in certain circumstances, income and gain from commodities or futures, forwards and options with respect to commodities. Mineral or natural resources activities include exploration, development, production, processing, mining, refining, marketing and transportation (including pipelines) of oil and gas, minerals, geothermal energy, fertilizer, timber or industrial source carbon dioxide. An MLP consists of a general partner and limited partners (or in the case of MLPs organized as limited liability companies, a managing member and members). The general partner or managing member typically controls the operations and management of the MLP and has an ownership stake in the partnership. The limited partners or members, through their ownership of limited partner or member interests, provide capital to the entity, are intended to have no role in the operation and management of the entity and receive cash distributions. An investment in MLP units involves certain risks which differ from an investment in the securities of a corporation. Holders of MLP units have limited control and voting rights on matters affecting the partnership. In addition, there are certain tax risks associated with an investment in MLP units and conflicts of interest exist between common unit holders and the general partner, including those arising from incentive distribution payments. As a partnership, an MLP has no tax liability at the entity level. If, as a result of a change in current law or a change in an MLP's business, an MLP were treated as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, such MLP would be obligated to pay federal income tax on its income at the corporate tax rate. If an MLP were classified as a corporation for federal income tax purposes, the amount of cash available for distribution by the MLP would be reduced and distributions received by investors would be taxed under federal income tax laws applicable to corporate dividends (as dividend income, return of capital, or capital gain). Therefore, treatment of an MLP as a corporation for federal income tax purposes would result in a reduction in the after-tax return to investors, likely causing a reduction in the value of the Fund's shares.

*Classes* — Class specific expenses, such as distribution fees, are borne by that class of shares. Income, realized and unrealized gains/losses and non-class specific expenses are allocated to the respective class on the basis of relative net assets.

*Expenses* — Expenses that are directly related to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Other operating expenses of the Trust are prorated to the funds based on the number of funds and/or relative daily net assets.

*Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders* — The Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income semi-annually. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

*Redemption Fees* — The Fund retains redemption fees of 2.00% on redemptions of capital shares held for less than 7 days. Such fees are retained by the Fund for the benefit of the remaining shareholders and are recorded as additions to fund capital. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund retained no fees.

*Line of Credit* — The Fund entered into an agreement, which may be renewed annually, which enables it to participate in a $35 million unsecured committed revolving line of credit on a first come, first serve basis, with U.S. Bank National Association (the "Custodian") which expires June 20, 2023. The proceeds from the borrowings shall be used to finance the Fund's short-term general working capital requirements, including the funding of shareholder redemptions. Interest is charged to the Fund based on its borrowings during the year at the Custodian's current reference rate. As of December 31, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding.

**3.** **Transactions with Affiliates:** 

Certain officers of the Trust are also officers of SEI Investments Global Funds Services (the "Administrator"), a wholly owned subsidiary of SEI Investments Company, and/or SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"). Such officers are paid no fees by the Trust, other than the Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO") as described below, for serving as officers of the Trust.

A portion of the services provided by the CCO and his staff, who are employees of the Administrator, are paid for by the Trust as incurred. The services include regulatory oversight of the Trust's advisors and service providers, as required by SEC regulations. The CCO's services and fees have been approved by and are reviewed by the Board.

**4.** **Administration, Distribution, Shareholder Servicing, Custodian and Transfer Agent Agreements:** 

The Fund and the Administrator are parties to an Administration Agreement under which the Administrator provides administrative services to the Fund. For these services, the Administrator is paid an asset-based fee, which will vary depending on the number of share classes and the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund was charged $788,030 for these services.

The Fund has adopted the Distribution Plan (the "Plan") for the Investor Class Shares. Under the Plan, the Distributor, or third parties that enter into agreements with the Distributor, may receive up to 0.25% of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class Shares as compensation for distribution services. The Distributor will not receive any compensation for the distribution of Institutional Class Shares of the Fund. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund's Investor Class Shares incurred $31,731 of distribution fees, an effective rate of 0.25%.

The Fund has entered into shareholder servicing agreements with third-party service providers pursuant to which the service providers provide certain shareholder services to Fund shareholders (the "Service Plan"). Under the Service Plan, the Fund may pay service providers a fee at a rate of up to 0.25% annually of the average daily net assets attributable to Investor Class Shares, subject to the arrangement for provision of shareholder and administrative services. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund's Investor Class Shares incurred $6,346 of shareholder servicing fees, an effective rate of 0.05%.

MUFG Union Bank, N.A. serves as Custodian (the "Custodian") for the Fund. The Custodian plays no role in determining the investment policies of the Fund or which securities are to be purchased or sold by the Fund.

DST Systems, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund under a transfer agency agreement with the Trust. The Fund is able to earn cash management credits to offset transfer agent expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund did not earn any cash management credits.

**5.** **Investment Advisory Agreement:** 

Under the terms of an investment advisory agreement, Hamlin Capital Management, LLC (the "Adviser") provides investment advisory services to the Fund at a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly at an annual rate of 0.85% of the Fund's average daily net assets. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep the Institutional Class Shares'

total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 0.85% of the Fund's Institutional Class Shares' average daily net assets until April 30, 2023. The Adviser has contractually agreed to reduce fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to keep the Investor Class Shares' total annual operating expenses (excluding 12b-1 fees, shareholder servicing fees, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) from exceeding 0.85% of the Fund's Investor Class Shares' average daily net assets until April 30, 2023. This Agreement may be terminated: (i) by the Board, for any reason at any time; or (ii) by the Adviser, upon ninety (90) days' prior written notice to the Trust, effective as of the close of business on April 30, 2023. In addition, if at any point it becomes unnecessary for the Adviser to reduce fees or make expense reimbursements, the board may permit the Adviser to retain the difference between total annual operating expenses and 0.85% to recapture all or a portion of its prior reductions or reimbursements made during the preceding three-year period.

As of December 31, 2022, the amount the Adviser may seek as reimbursement of previously waived fees and reimbursed expenses is as follows:

---

**7.** **Investment Transactions:** 

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund made purchases of $461,282,461 and sales of $235,085,419 in investment securities other than long-term U.S. Government and short-term securities. There were no purchases or sales of long-term U.S. Government securities.

**8.** **Federal Tax Information:** 

The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid, if any, are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. These book/tax differences may be temporary or permanent. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in capital and distributable earnings, in the period that the differences arise.

As of December 31, 2022, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

---

---

Post October losses represent losses realized on investment transactions from November 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022, that, in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, the Fund may defer and treat as having arisen in the following fiscal year.

The difference between Federal tax cost and book cost is primarily due to wash sales, partnerships and real estate investment trust.

The Federal tax cost and aggregate gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments (including foreign currency and derivatives, if applicable) held by the Fund at December 31, 2022 were as follows:

**9.** **Concentration of Risks:** 

In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund and, therefore, cannot be established; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claim is considered remote.

**Equity Risk** – Since it purchases equity securities, the Fund is subject to the risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time. This price volatility is the principal risk of investing in the Fund.

**Dividend Paying Stocks Risk** – The Fund's emphasis on dividend-paying stocks involves the risk that such stocks may fall out of favor with investors and underperform the market. Also, a company may reduce or eliminate its dividend.

**Mid-Capitalization Company Risk** – The mid-capitalization companies in which the Fund may invest may have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, mid-cap stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies.

**Sector Risk** – Given the Fund's focus on dividend-paying securities, the Fund may, from time to time, have a greater exposure to higher dividend yield sectors and industries than the broad equity market. As a result, the value of the Fund's shares may be especially sensitive to factors and economic risks that specifically affect those sectors. The Fund's share price may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a mutual fund that invests in a broader range of sectors. The specific risks for each of the sectors in which the Fund may focus its investments include the additional risks described below:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Financial Services** - Companies in the financial services sector are subject to extensive governmental regulation which may limit both the amounts and types of loans and other financial commitments they can make, the interest rates and fees they can charge, the scope of their activities, the prices they can charge and the amount of capital they must maintain.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Consumer Staples** - Companies in the consumer staples sector are subject to government regulation affecting their products which may negatively impact such companies' performance. The success of food, beverage, household and personal products companies may be strongly affected by consumer interest, marketing campaigns and other factors affecting supply and demand.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Consumer Discretionary** - Companies in the consumer discretionary sector are subject to the performance of the overall international economy, interest

rates, competition and consumer confidence. Success depends heavily on disposable household income and consumer spending.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**• Energy** - Companies in the energy sector are subject to supply and demand, exploration and production spending, world events and economic conditions, swift price and supply fluctuations, energy conservation, the success of exploration projects, liabilities for environmental damage and general civil liabilities and tax and other governmental regulatory policies.

**Value Stock Risk** – The Fund pursues a value approach to investing. If the Adviser's assessment of a company's value or prospects for exceeding earnings expectations or market conditions is wrong, the Fund could suffer losses or perform poorly relative to other funds.

**Foreign Company Risk** – Investing in foreign companies poses additional risks since political and economic events unique to a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers.

**Pandemic and Natural Disaster Risk –** The impact of any epidemic, pandemic or natural disaster, or widespread fear that such events may occur, could negatively affect the global economy, as well as the economies of individual countries, the financial performance of individual companies and sectors, and the markets in general in significant and unforeseen ways.

**REIT Risk** – REITs are susceptible to the risks associated with direct ownership of real estate, such as: declines in property values; increases in property taxes, operating expenses, interest rates or competition; overbuilding; zoning changes; and losses from casualty or condemnation.

**MLP Risk** – MLPs often own several properties or businesses (or own interests) that are related to oil and gas industries or other natural resources, but they also may finance other projects. To the extent that an MLP's interests are all in a particular industry, the MLP will be negatively impacted by economic events adversely impacting that industry. Additional risks of investing in an MLP also include those involved in investing in a partnership as opposed to a corporation, such as limited control of management, limited voting rights and tax risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**<br>

To the Board of Trustees of The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund and Shareholders of Hamlin High Dividend Equity Fund

**Opinion on the Financial Statements** 

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Hamlin High Dividend Equity Fund (the "Fund") (one of the funds constituting The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund ("the Trust")), including the schedule of investments, as of December 31, 2022, and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund (one of the funds constituting The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund) at December 31, 2022, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

**Basis for Opinion** 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Trust in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022, by correspondence with the custodians. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Hamlin Capital Management investment companies since 2012.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**DISCLOSURE OF FUND EXPENSES**<br>

All mutual funds have operating expenses. As a shareholder of a mutual fund, your investment is affected by these ongoing costs, which include (among others) costs for fund management, administrative services, and shareholder reports like this one. It is important for you to understand the impact of these costs on your investment returns.

Operating expenses such as these are deducted from the mutual fund's gross income and directly reduce your final investment return. These expenses are expressed as a percentage of the mutual fund's average net assets; this percentage is known as the mutual fund's expense ratio.

The following examples use the expense ratio and are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your Fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period (July 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022).

The table on the next page illustrates your Fund's costs in two ways:

• **Actual Fund Return.** This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses after fee waivers that your
Fund incurred over the period. The "Expenses Paid During Period" column shows the actual dollar expense cost incurred by a $1,000 investment in the Fund, and the "Ending Account Value" number is derived from deducting that
expense cost from the Fund's gross investment return.

You can use this information, together with the actual amount you invested in the Fund, to estimate the expenses you paid over that period. Simply divide your ending starting account value by $1,000 to arrive at a ratio (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply that ratio by the number shown for your Fund under "Expenses Paid During Period."

• **Hypothetical 5% Return.** This section helps you compare your Fund's costs with those of other
mutual funds. It assumes that the Fund had an annual 5% return before expenses during the year, but that the expense ratio (Column 3) for the period is unchanged. This example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange
Commission requires all mutual funds to make this 5% calculation. You can assess your Fund's comparative cost by comparing the hypothetical result for your Fund in the "Expenses Paid During Period" column with those that appear in the
same charts in the shareholder reports for other mutual funds.

 **APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT** *(Unaudited)*

Pursuant to Section 15 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), the Fund's advisory agreement (the "Agreement") must be renewed at least annually after its initial two-year term: (i) by the vote of the Board of Trustees (the "Board" or the "Trustees") of The Advisors' Inner Circle Fund (the "Trust") or by a vote of a majority of the shareholders of the Fund; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or "interested persons" of any party thereto, as defined in the 1940 Act (the "Independent Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such renewal.

A Board meeting was held on November 15-16, 2022, to decide whether to renew the Agreement for an additional one-year term. In preparation for the meeting, the Trustees requested that the Adviser furnish information necessary to evaluate the terms of the Agreement. Prior to the meeting, the Independent Trustees of the Fund met to review and discuss the information provided and submitted a request for additional information to the Adviser, and information was provided in response to this request. The Trustees used this information, as well as other information that the Adviser and other service providers of the Fund presented or submitted to the Board at the meeting and other meetings held during the prior year, to help them decide whether to renew the Agreement for an additional year.

Specifically, the Board requested and received written materials from the Adviser and other service providers of the Fund regarding: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the Adviser's services; (ii) the Adviser's investment management personnel; (iii) the Adviser's operations and financial condition; (iv) the Adviser's brokerage practices (including any soft dollar arrangements) and investment strategies; (v) the Fund's advisory fee paid to the Adviser and overall fees and operating expenses compared with a peer group of mutual funds; (vi) the level of the Adviser's profitability from its relationship with the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the Adviser and its affiliates; (vii) the Adviser's potential economies of scale; (viii) the Adviser's compliance program, including a description of material compliance matters and material compliance violations; (ix) the Adviser's policies on and compliance procedures for personal securities transactions; and (x) the Fund's performance compared with a peer group of mutual funds and the Fund's benchmark indices.

Representatives from the Adviser, along with other Fund service providers, presented additional information and participated in question and answer sessions at the Board meeting to help the Trustees evaluate the Adviser's services, fee and other aspects of the Agreement. The Independent Trustees received advice from independent counsel and met in executive sessions outside the presence of Fund management and the Adviser.

At the Board meeting, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, based on their evaluation of the information provided by the Adviser and other service providers of the Fund, renewed the Agreement. In considering the renewal of the Agreement, the Board considered various factors that they determined were relevant, including: (i) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser; (ii) the investment performance of the Fund and the Adviser; (iii) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund, including both direct and indirect benefits accruing to the Adviser and its affiliates; (iv) the extent to which economies of scale are being realized by the Adviser; and (v) whether fee levels reflect such economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors, as discussed in further detail below.

**Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided by the Adviser** 

In considering the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Adviser, the Board reviewed the portfolio management services provided by the Adviser to the Fund, including the quality and continuity of the Adviser's portfolio management personnel, the resources of the Adviser, and the Adviser's compliance history and compliance program. The Trustees reviewed the terms of the Agreement. The Trustees also reviewed the Adviser's investment and risk management approaches for the Fund. The most recent investment adviser registration form ("Form ADV") for the Adviser was available to the Board, as was the response of the Adviser to a detailed series of questions which included, among other things, information about the investment advisory services provided by the Adviser to the Fund.

The Trustees also considered other services provided to the Fund by the Adviser such as selecting broker-dealers for executing portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Fund's investment restrictions, and monitoring compliance with various Fund policies and procedures and with applicable securities laws and regulations. Based on the factors above, as well as those discussed below, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Fund by the Adviser were sufficient to support renewal of the Agreement.

**Investment Performance of the Fund and the Adviser** 

The Board was provided with regular reports regarding the Fund's performance over various time periods. The Trustees also reviewed reports prepared by the Fund's administrator comparing the Fund's performance to its benchmark indices and a peer group of mutual funds as classified by Lipper, an independent provider of investment company data, over various periods of time. Representatives from the Adviser provided information regarding and led discussions of factors impacting the performance of the Fund, outlining current market conditions and explaining their expectations and strategies for the future. The Trustees determined

------

that the Fund's performance was satisfactory, or, where the Fund's performance was materially below its benchmarks and/or peer group, the Trustees were satisfied by the reasons for the underperformance and/or the steps taken by the Adviser in an effort to improve the performance of the Fund. Based on this information, the Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the investment results that the Adviser had been able to achieve for the Fund were sufficient to support renewal of the Agreement.

**Costs of Advisory Services, Profitability and Economies of Scale** 

In considering the advisory fee payable by the Fund to the Adviser, the Trustees reviewed, among other things, a report of the advisory fee paid to the Adviser. The Trustees also reviewed reports prepared by the Fund's administrator comparing the Fund's net and gross expense ratios and advisory fee to those paid by a peer group of mutual funds as classified by Lipper. The Trustees reviewed the management fees charged by the Adviser to other clients with comparable mandates. The Trustees considered any differences in management fees and took into account the respective demands, resources and complexity associated with the Fund and other client accounts as well as the extensive regulatory, compliance and tax regimes to which the Fund is subject. The Board concluded, within the context of its full deliberations, that the advisory fee was reasonable in light of the nature and quality of the services rendered by the Adviser.

The Trustees reviewed the costs of services provided by and the profits realized by the Adviser from its relationship with the Fund, including both direct benefits and indirect benefits, such as research and brokerage services received under soft dollar arrangements, accruing to the Adviser and its affiliates. The Trustees considered how the Adviser's profitability was affected by factors such as its organizational structure and method for allocating expenses. The Trustees concluded that the profit margins of the Adviser with respect to the management of the Fund were not unreasonable. The Board also considered the Adviser's commitment to managing the Fund and its willingness to continue its expense limitation and fee waiver arrangement with the Fund.

The Trustees considered the Adviser's views relating to economies of scale in connection with the Fund as Fund assets grow and the extent to which the benefits of any such economies of scale are shared with the Fund and Fund shareholders. The Board considered the existence of any economies of scale and whether those

were passed along to the Fund's shareholders through a graduated advisory fee schedule or other means, including fee waivers. The Trustees recognized that economies of scale are difficult to identify and quantify and are rarely identifiable on a fund-by-fund basis. Based on this evaluation, the Board concluded that the advisory fee was reasonable in light of the information that was provided to the Trustees by the Adviser with respect to economies of scale.

**Renewal of the Agreement** 

Based on the Board's deliberations and its evaluation of the information described above and other factors and information it believed relevant in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, the Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, with the assistance of Fund counsel and Independent Trustees' counsel, unanimously concluded that the terms of the Agreement, including the fees payable thereunder, were fair and reasonable and agreed to renew the Agreement for another year. In its deliberations, the Board did not identify any absence of information as material to its decision, or any particular factor (or conclusion with respect thereto) or single piece of information that was all-important, controlling or determinative of its decision, but considered all of the factors together, and each Trustee may have attributed different weights to the various factors (and conclusions with respect thereto) and information.

Notes:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the Trust's annual financial statements and services normally
provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Final tax compliance services provided to McKee International Equity Portfolio.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) Tax compliance services provided to service affiliates of the funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Non-audit assurance engagements for service affiliates of the funds.

(e)(1) The Trust's Audit Committee has adopted and the Board of Trustees has ratified an Audit and Non-Audit Services Pre-Approval Policy (the "Policy"), which sets forth the procedures and the conditions pursuant to which services proposed to be performed by the independent auditor of the Funds may be pre-approved.

The Policy provides that all requests or applications for proposed services to be provided by the independent auditor must be submitted to the Registrant's Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") and must include a detailed description of the services proposed to be rendered. The CFO will determine whether such services:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. require specific pre-approval;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. are included within the list of services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee pursuant to the Policy; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. have been previously pre-approved in connection with the independent
auditor's annual engagement letter for the applicable year or otherwise. In any instance where services require pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with
SEC's rules and whether the provision of such services would impair the auditor's independence.

------

Requests or applications to provide services that require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by the CFO. The Audit Committee will be informed by the CFO on a quarterly basis of all services rendered by the independent auditor. The Audit Committee has delegated specific pre-approval authority to either the Audit Committee Chair or financial expert, provided that the estimated fee for any such proposed pre-approved service does not exceed $100,000 and any pre-approval decisions are reported to the Audit Committee at its next regularly-scheduled meeting.

Services that have received the general pre-approval of the Audit Committee are identified and described in the Policy. In addition, the Policy sets forth a maximum fee per engagement with respect to each identified service that has received general pre-approval.

All services to be provided by the independent auditor shall be provided pursuant to a signed written engagement letter with the Registrant, the investment adviser, or applicable control affiliate (except that matters as to which an engagement letter would be impractical because of timing issues or because the matter is small may not be the subject of an engagement letter) that sets forth both the services to be provided by the independent auditor and the total fees to be paid to the independent auditor for those services.

In addition, the Audit Committee has determined to take additional measures on an annual basis to meet the Audit Committee's responsibility to oversee the work of the independent auditor and to assure the auditor's independence from the Registrant, such as (a) reviewing a formal written statement from the independent auditor delineating all relationships between the independent auditor and the Registrant, and (b) discussing with the independent auditor the independent auditor's methods and procedures for ensuring independence.

(e)(2) Percentage of fees billed applicable to non-audit services pursuant to (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X, waiver of pre-approval requirement were as follows (PwC):

## Ex-99.Code

**<u>Policy Statement</u>:** Sarbanes-Oxley effected sweeping corporate disclosure and financial reporting reform on public companies, including mutual funds, to address corporate malfeasance and assure investors that the companies in which the investors invest are accurately and completely disclosing financial information. Under Sarbanes-Oxley, all public companies (including the Funds) must either have a code of ethics for their senior financial officers, or disclose why the company does not have a code of ethics. Sarbanes-Oxley was intended to foster corporate environments which encourage employees to question and report unethical and potentially illegal business practices.

Each Fund has chosen to adopt a code of ethics ("Code of Ethics for Financial Officers") to encourage the Fund's Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial, and Accounting Officer and Controller (the "Financial Officers") for the purpose of promoting:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between
personal and professional relationships.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that a registrant files
with, or submits to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Funds.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Compliance with applicable laws and governmental rules and regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code of Ethics for Financial Officers to an appropriate person
or persons identified in the Code of Ethics of Financial Officers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Accountability for adherence to the Code of Ethics for Financial Officers.

**<u>Procedures</u>:** The Funds have adopted the following procedures regarding this matter:

A compliance officer is responsible for monitoring compliance with these procedures.

**FINANCIAL OFFICER CODE OF ETHICS** 

**I.** **Introduction** 

The reputation and integrity of Series Trusts, (each a "Trust" and, collectively, the "Trusts") are valuable assets that are vital to the each Trust's success. The Trusts' senior financial officers ("SFOs") are responsible for conducting the Trusts' business in a manner that demonstrates a commitment to the highest standards of integrity. The Trusts' SFOs include the principal executive officer, the principal financial officer, comptroller or principal accounting officer, and any person who performs a similar function.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act") effected sweeping corporate disclosure and financial reporting reform on public companies, including mutual funds, to address corporate malfeasance and assure investors that the companies in which the investors invest are accurately and completely disclosing financial information. Under the Act, all public companies (including the Trusts) must either have a code of ethics for their SFOs, or disclose why the company does not have a code of

------

ethics. The Act was intended to foster corporate environments which encourage employees to question and report unethical and potentially illegal business practices. Each Trust has chosen to adopt this Financial Officer Code of Ethics (the "Code") to encourage the Trust's SFOs to act in a manner consistent with the highest principles of ethical conduct.

**II.** **Purposes of the Code** 

The purposes of this Code are:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. To promote honest and ethical conduct by each Trust's SFOs, including the ethical handling of actual or
apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. To assist each Trust's SFOs in recognizing and avoiding conflicts of interest, including disclosing to
an appropriate person any material transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to such a conflict;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. To promote full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the
Trusts file with, or submit to, the SEC and in other public communications made by the Trusts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. To promote compliance with applicable laws, rules, and regulations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. To encourage the prompt internal reporting to an appropriate person of violations of this Code; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. To establish accountability for adherence to this Code.

**III.** **Questions about this Code** 

Each Trust's compliance officer designated to oversee compliance with the Trust's Code of Ethics adopted pursuant to Rule 17j-1 shall serve as Compliance Officer for the implementation and administration of this Code. You should direct your questions about this Code to the Compliance Officer.

**IV.** **Conduct Guidelines** 

Each Trust has adopted the following guidelines under which the Trust's SFOs must perform their official duties and conduct the business affairs of the Trust.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. **Ethical and honest conduct is of paramount importance.** Each Trust's SFOs must act with honesty
and integrity and avoid violations of this Code, including the avoidance of actual or apparent conflicts of interest with the Trust in personal and professional relationships.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. **SFOs must disclose material transactions or relationships.** Each Trust's SFOs must disclose to
the Compliance Officer any actual or apparent conflicts of interest the SFO may have with the Trust that reasonably could be expected to give rise to any violations of this Code. Such conflicts of interest may arise as a result of material
transactions or business or personal relationships to which the SFO may be a party. If it is not possible to disclose the matter to the Compliance Officer, the matter should be disclosed to the Trust's Chief Financial Officer, Chief Executive
Officer, or another appropriate person. In addition to

------

disclosing any actual or apparent conflicts of interest in which an SFO is personally involved, the Trusts' SFOs have an obligation to report any other actual or apparent conflicts which the SFOs discover or of which the SFOs otherwise become aware. If you are unsure whether a particular fact pattern gives rise to a conflict of interest, or whether a particular transaction or relationship is "material," you should bring the matter to the attention of the Compliance Officer. <br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Standards for quality of information shared with service providers of the Trusts.** Each Trust's
SFOs must at all times seek to provide information to the Trust's service providers (adviser, administrator, outside auditor, outside counsel, custodian, *etc.*) that is accurate, complete, objective, relevant, timely, and understandable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. **Standards for quality of information included in periodic reports.** Each Trust's SFOs must at all
times endeavor to ensure full, fair, timely, accurate, and understandable disclosure in the Trust's periodic reports.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. **Compliance with laws.** Each Trust's SFOs must comply with the federal securities laws and other
laws and rules applicable to the Trusts, such as the Internal Revenue Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. **Standard of care.** Each Trust's SFOs must at all times act in good faith and with due care,
competence, and diligence, without misrepresenting material facts or allowing your independent judgment to be subordinated. Each Trust's SFOs must conduct the affairs of the Trust in a responsible manner, consistent with this Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Confidentiality of information.** Each Trust's SFOs must respect and protect the confidentiality
of information acquired in the course of their professional duties, except when authorized by the Trust to disclose this information or where disclosure is otherwise legally mandated. You may not use confidential information acquired in the course
of your work for personal advantage.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **Sharing of information and educational standards.** Each Trust's SFOs should share information
with relevant parties to keep these parties informed of the business affairs of the Trust, as appropriate, and to maintain skills important and relevant to the Trust's needs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **Promote ethical conduct.** Each Trust's SFOs at all times should proactively promote ethical
behavior among peers in the SFOs work environment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **Standards for recordkeeping.** Each Trust's SFOs at all times must endeavor to ensure that the
Trust's financial books and records are thoroughly and accurately maintained to the best of the SFOs knowledge in a manner consistent with applicable laws and this Code.

**V. Waivers of this Code** 

You may request a waiver of a provision of this Code by submitting your request in writing to the Compliance Officer for appropriate review. For example, if a family member works for a service provider that prepares a Trust's financial statements, you may have a potential conflict of interest in reviewing those statements and should seek a waiver of this Code to review the work. An executive officer of each Trust, or another appropriate person (such as a designated Board or Audit Committee member), will decide whether to grant a waiver. All waivers of this code must be disclosed to the applicable Trust's shareholders and the designated Board to the extent required by SEC rules.

**VI. Affirmation of the Code** 

------

Upon adoption of the Code, each Trust's SFOs must affirm in writing that the SFO has received, has read, and understands the Code, and annually thereafter must affirm that they have complied with the requirements of the Code. To the extent necessary, each Trust's Compliance Officer will provide guidance on the conduct required by this Code and the manner in which violations or suspected violations must be reported and waivers must be requested.

**VII.** **Reporting Violations** 

In the event that an SFO discovers or, in good faith, suspects a violation of this Code, the SFO <u>must</u> immediately report the violation or suspected violation to the Compliance Officer. The Compliance Officer, in his or her discretion, may consult with another member of the Trust's senior management or the Board in determining how to address the suspected violation. For example, a Code violation may occur when a periodic report or financial statement of a Trust omits a material fact, or is technically accurate but, in the view of the SFO, is written in a way that obscures the report's or financial statement's meaning.

SFOs who report violations or suspected violations in good faith will not be subject to retaliation of any kind. Reported violations will be investigated and addressed promptly and will be treated as confidential to the extent possible.

**VIII.** **Violations of the Code** 

Dishonest or unethical conduct or conduct that is illegal will constitute a violation of this Code, regardless of whether this Code specifically refers to such particular conduct. A violation of this Code may result in disciplinary action, up to and including removal as an SFO of the Trust. A variety of laws apply to the Trusts and their operations, including the Securities Act of 1933, the Investment Company Act of 1940, state laws relating to duties owed by Trust officers, and criminal laws. The Trusts will report any suspected criminal violations to the appropriate authorities, and will investigate, address, and report, as appropriate, non-criminal violations.
