Clients that engage Meader as their investment adviser as a result of a referral by a Promoter will receive a written Promoter disclosure statement describing the nature and terms of the arrangement, including the amount payable to the Promoter. 8. Local Government Investment Pools. Where appropriate, Meeder may recommend the use of local government investment pools in which Meeder or one of its affiliates earn advisory and/or administration fees. Assets placed in these pools are not included among eligible assets when calculating the investment advisory fee. Because Meeder or its affiliates receive fees in connection with programs we sponsor or recommend, use of these programs presents a conflict of interest. 9. Third -Party Payments. Meader or its affiliates receive compensation from unaffiliated third parties for endorsing or recommending certain financial products to its clients. This arrangement presents a conflict of interest because it provides Meeder with an incentive to solicit and secure participation in the program. Asset based advisory fees are not charged for assets invested in products that pay indirect compensation to Meader. 10. Proxy Voting. Meader does not accept or assume authority to vote proxies for its public fund clients. Clients will receive their proxies or other solicitations directly from their Custodian. Client agrees that Meader will not advise or act for Client in any legal proceedings, including bankruptcies or class actions, involving securities held or previously held by the Account or the issuers of such securities. 11. Electronic Delivery. Client consents to electronic delivery of all documents from Meeder, including but not limited to a copy of the executed Agreement, statements, confirmations, Meeder's Form ADV Part 2 and amendments thereto, and other general communications delivered to Client's electronic mail address of record. Delivery of communications to Clients in this fashion will be deemed effective unless Meeder is notified otherwise. Client is responsible for maintaining an accurate and up to date email address and to ensure that Client at all times has the ability to receive communications directed in this manner. 12. Confidentiality. All information and advice furnished by either party to the other, including their respective agents and employees, shall be treated as confidential and shall not be disclosed to third parties except as otherwise required by law or as agreed to in writing by Client. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Client consents to the use of Client's name in sales and marketing material used by Meader or its affiliates solely for the purpose of identifying the Client as an investment advisory client. 13. Services to Other Clients. Client understands that Meader serves as investment adviser for other Clients and will continue to do so. Client also understands that Meader, its personnel and affiliates ("Affiliated Persons") may give advice or take action in performing their duties to other clients, or for their own accounts, that differ from advice given to or action taken for Client. Meeder is not obligated to buy, sell or recommend for Client any security or other investment that Meader or its Affiliated Persons may buy, sell or recommend for any other client or their own accounts. 14.
