    2.          In addition

        the “Global Services”, which CWA, under the terms of its engagement letters and advisory contracts, with trustees and sponsors of pension and retirement

        T Bank, N.A., for and on behalf of any of the Pension Clients, and then to remit the AUM Fees, so collected from T Bank, N.A., as and when so collected, to CWA. CWA will continue to pay FMR, its compensation, under the terms of B and C of Article
        IV, of the Agreement.

        Family Legacy Trust Company.

    INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

  

  
    

    

    This Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of this 23 day of August 2012 by and between Τ BANK, N.A., a national banking association (“T Bank”), and III:I Financial Management Research, L.P. (“FMR”),

    RECITALS

  

  
    

    

    WHEREAS, FMR and Τ Bank previously entered into an Advisory Services Agreement dated April 27, 2006, and amended by that certain letter, dated December 14, 2007 and the Amendment No. 2 to the Advisory Services Agreement, dated
      October 4, 2010 (as so amended, the “2006 Agreement”);

  

  
    

    

    WHEREAS, Τ Bank

      has established certain collective investment funds (collectively, the “CIFs”) pursuant to 12 CFR 9.18(a)(1) (the “Al Funds”), which are
      maintained exclusively for the collective investment and reinvestment of money contributed to Al Funds by T Bank, in its capacity as trustee, executor, administrator, guardian or custodian under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, and pursuant to 12 CFR
      9.18(a)(2) (the “A2 Funds”), which are maintained for the collective investment and reinvestment of funds consisting solely of assets of a retirement,
      pension, profit sharing, stock bonus or other trusts that are exempt from federal income tax.

  

  
    

    

     WHEREAS, T Bank has decided to make certain changes with respect to the administration of

     WHEREAS, effective as of the date hereof, the parties to the 2006 Agreement have terminated
      the 2006 Agreement and, in lieu thereof, T Bank and FMR have entered into this Agreement.

    5.           Fees.

  

  
    

    

    5.01      Calculation of Fees. As consideration for FMR’s performance of the services described in this Agreement, Τ Bank agrees, during the Term of this Agreement, to pay to FMR amounts as calculated by Τ Bank based on the Assets Under Investment (as defined below) of Participating Accounts (as defined below) invested in the CIFs, as follows:

  

  
    

    

     (a)         Other
        than with respect to the CIFs set forth on Schedule 5(b) hereto, Τ Bank shall pay FMR, a fee equal to (i) 0.88% (annualized) of the average daily Assets
        Under Investment up to and including $500,000,000; (ii) 0.90% (annualized) of the average daily Assets Under Investment exceeding $500,000,000 and up to and including $1,000,000,000; and (iii) 0.92% (annualized) of the average daily Assets Under
        Investment exceeding $1,000,000,000. The FMR fees shall be reduced by the amounts described in Section 5.03 and any custodian segregated account expenses.

  

  
     

     (b)         With
        respect to the CIFs set forth on Schedule 5(b) hereto, which Schedule 5(b) may be amended from time to time upon the mutual agreement of FMR and Τ Bank, Τ Bank shall pay FMR, a fee equal to 0.75% (annualized) of the average daily Assets Under Investment. The FMR fees shall be reduced by the amounts described in
        Section 5.03 and any custodian segregated account expenses.

  

  
    

    

     (c)         Such
        fees shall be calculated and paid monthly based on the prior month’s end CIF valuation. As promptly as administratively feasible following each month end, Τ Bank

        will provide to FMR for review the calculation of all amounts due to FMR. For purposes of this Agreement, the calculation by Τ Bank of the amounts due to
        FMR shall govern, absent manifest error.

  

  
     

     (d)        With
        respect to the CIFs set forth on Schedule 5(c) hereto, which Schedule 5(c) may be amended from time to time upon the mutual agreement of FMR and Τ Bank,
        FMR shall reimburse Τ Bank for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of any tax return for such CIFs.

  

  
    
      4

      
        
 

    

  

  As used herein, “Assets
        Under Investment” means the valuation of the CIF interests and cash or money market investments held by Participating Accounts, as determined by Τ Bank

    each month in accordance with the terms of the written plan associated with each CIF. As used herein, “Participating Account” means an account of a Client
    for which Τ Bank serves as custodian or trustee. As used herein, “Client”
    means a person with a Participating Account for which Τ Bank’s trust accounting system identifies Cain Waiters & Associates, P.L.L.C. as providing
    investment advice to such person. Absent manifest error, Τ Bank’s determination of Participating Accounts and Clients, including, without limitation,
    individuals and benefit plans, shall govern.

  
     

    Any amounts due to FMR pursuant to this Agreement shall be payable by direct deposit into accounts owned by FMR at Τ Bank.

  

  
    

    

     5.02      Expenses of FMR and Τ Bank. Both parties shall be responsible to pay all of their respective
        expenses. Neither party shall be obligated to the other for the payment or reimbursement of any expense without the prior written approval of the other party.

  

  
     

     5.03      Compensation of Fund Managers. FMR understands and agrees that Τ Bank shall deduct from any fees due to FMR pursuant to Section 5.01 any and all compensation due to Fund Managers in accordance with this Section 5.03. Each
        month prior to the payment of FMR’s fee, FMR shall estimate the fees due to the Fund Managers based on the Assets Under Investment applicable to each Fund Manager (the “Fund Manager Estimate”) and shall deduct from any fees payable to FMR an amount equal to the Fund Manager Estimate. Upon receipt of an invoice from a Fund Manager for the immediately preceding quarter (the “Fund Manager Invoice”), Τ Bank shall pay the amount of the
        Fund Manager Invoice to such Fund Manager. In the event that the applicable Fund Manager Invoice exceeds the amount of the applicable Fund Manager Estimate, Τ Bank

        shall pay the Fund Manager Invoice and shall withhold from the next monthly payment to FMR an amount equal to the amount by which the Fund Manager Invoice exceeded the Fund Manager Estimate. In the event that the Fund Manager Invoice is less than
        the Fund Manager Estimate, Τ Bank shall pay the Fund Manager Invoice and shall remit to FMR the amount by which the Fund Manager Estimate exceeds the Fund
        Manager Invoice.

  

  
    

    

    6.          Representations of FMR. FMR hereby represents and warrants to Τ Bank as follows:

  

  
    

    

    6.01       Registered Investment Advisor. FMR is and shall remain at all times during the Term of this Agreement registered as an investment adviser
        with the SEC.

  

  
     

    6.02      Performance of Obligations. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, only FMR will perform the
        services described herein. In performing the services herein, FMR shall perform, and shall cause any agent or designee of FMR to perform, in a manner consistent with all applicable federal and state securities laws and state ethics laws, and the
        rules and regulations thereunder. FMR has all permits, licenses, certificates of authority, orders and approvals of, and has made all filings, applications and registrations with, federal, state or local governmental or regulatory bodies that are
        required in order to permit FMR to perform its duties hereunder in accordance with applicable law. Neither FMR nor any person associated with FMR are persons (a) subject to an SEC order issued under Section 203(f) of the Investment Advisers Act of
        1940 (“Advisers Act”), (b) convicted within the previous ten years of any felony or misdemeanor involving conduct described in Section
        203(e)(2)(A)-(D) of the Advisers Act, (c) who have been found by the SEC to have engaged, or have been convicted of engaging, in any of the conduct specified in paragraphs (1), (5) or (6) of Section 203 of the Advisers Act, or (d) subject to an
        order, judgment or decree described in Section 203(e)(4) of the Advisers Act. 

    

  

  
    
      5

      
        
 

    

     6.03       No Conflicts of Interest. FMR is free to engage in the work necessary to actively provide the
        services hereunder without (a) conflict with the interests of any other person, including, without limitation, the Clients, or (b) interference from any other activity.

  

  
    

    

     6.04       No Advertising of CIFs. FMR has not engaged in any general solicitation or general
        advertisement of the Al Funds to the general public in any manner that would violate the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and has not advertised or publicized the A2 Funds, except pursuant to any electronic or written materials
        provided, from time to time, to FMR by Τ Bank. Further, FMR has not engaged in any conduct that would require the registration of the CIFs or any interests
        therein under the Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

  

  
     

     6.05       Execution and Delivery. FMR has full legal capacity and authority to execute,
        deliver, and perform this Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of FMR, enforceable against FMR in accordance with its terms.

        any derivative thereof. FMR shall pay all royalties and license fees, shall defend suits or claims for infringement of patent rights, and shall hold Τ Bank
