SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. IA-5549]

Notice of Intention To Cancel Registration Pursuant to Section
203(H) of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940

July 27, 2020.
    Notice is given that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
``Commission'') intends to issue an order, pursuant to Section 203(h)
of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the ``Act''), cancelling the
registration of Europa Investment Bank Inc. [File No. 801-74257],
hereinafter referred to as the ``registrant.''
    Section 203(h) provides, in pertinent part, that if the Commission
finds that any person registered under Section 203, or who has pending
an application for registration filed under that section, is no longer
in existence, is not engaged in business as an investment adviser, or
is prohibited from registering as an investment adviser under section
203A, the Commission shall by order, cancel the registration of such
person.
    The registrant is not eligible for registration with the Commission
under the Act and the rules issued under the Act. This belief is based
on our understanding that registrant is relying on rule 203A-1(a)(1) to
remain registered with the Commission, though it has insufficient
regulatory assets under management.\1\ Registrant does not currently
have regulatory assets under management of $100 million or more; and it
did not have regulatory assets under management of $90 million or more
at the time of filing its most recent annual updating amendment. In
addition, our belief also is based on our understanding that the
registrant is no longer in existence or otherwise engaged in business
as an investment adviser. Accordingly, the Commission believes that
reasonable grounds exist for a finding that this registrant is no
longer eligible to be registered with the Commission as an investment
adviser and that the registration should be cancelled pursuant to
section 203(h) of the Act.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Rule 203A-1(a)(1) under the Act generally requires an
adviser to have assets under management of at least $100 million or
at least $90 million at the time of filing its most recent annual
updating amendment.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Notice is also given that any interested person may, by August 21,
2020, at 5:30 p.m., submit to the Commission in writing a request for a
hearing on the cancellation, accompanied by a statement as to the
nature of his or her interest, the reason for such request, and the
issues, if any, of fact or law proposed to be controverted, and he or
she may request that he or she be notified if the Commission should
order a hearing thereon. Any such communication should be emailed to
the Commission's Secretary at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>    At any time after August 21, 2020, the Commission may issue an
order cancelling the registration, upon the basis of the information
stated above, unless an order for a hearing on the cancellation shall
be issued upon request or upon the Commission's own motion. Persons who
requested a hearing, or who requested to be advised as to whether a
hearing is ordered, will receive any notices and orders issued in this
matter, including the date of the hearing (if ordered) and any
postponements thereof. Any adviser whose registration is cancelled
under delegated authority may appeal that decision directly to the
Commission in accordance with rules 430 and 431 of the Commission's
rules of practice (17 CFR 201.430 and 431).

ADDRESSES: The Commission<EMAIL_ADDRESS>

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY

40 CFR Part 52

[EPA-R07-OAR-2006-0086; FRL-8037-9]

Approval and Promulgation of Implementation Plans; State of Iowa

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Direct final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: EPA is approving a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision
submitted by the state of Iowa for the purpose of establishing
exemptions for indoor sources of air pollution that are not directly
vented to the outside but have emissions that leave the building
through doors, vents or other means. This revision also clarifies that
the permitting exemptions do not relieve the owner or operator of any
source from any obligation to comply with any other applicable
requirements. The state has determined that air pollution emissions
from this equipment are negligible and these exemptions are likely to
result in no significant impact on human health or the environment.

DATES: This direct final rule will be effective May 1, 2006, without
further notice, unless EPA receives adverse comment by March 30, 2006.
If adverse comment is received, EPA will publish a timely withdrawal of
the direct final rule in the Federal Register informing the public that
the rule will not take effect.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by Docket ID No. EPA-R07-
OAR-2006-0086, by one of the following methods:
    1. http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the on-line instructions for

submitting comments.

your comment. If you send an e-mail comment directly to EPA without
going through http://www.regulations.gov, your e-mail address will be

automatically captured and included as part of the comment that is
placed in the public docket and made available on the Internet. If you
submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you include your name
and other contact information in the body of your comment and with any
disk or CD-ROM you submit. If EPA cannot read your comment due to
technical difficulties and cannot contact you for clarification, EPA
may not be able to consider your comment. Electronic files should avoid
the use of special characters, any form of encryption, and be free of
any defects or viruses.
    Docket: All documents in the electronic docket are listed in the
http://www.regulations.gov index. Although listed in the index, some

information is not publicly available, i.e., CBI or other information
whose disclosure is restricted by statute. Certain other material, such
as copyrighted material, is not placed on the Internet and will be
publicly available only in hard copy form. Publicly available docket
materials are available either electronically in http://www.regulations.gov
 or in hard copy at the Environmental Protection

Agency, Air Planning and Development Branch, 901 North 5th Street,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Throughout this document whenever

``we,'' ``us,'' or ``our'' is used, we mean EPA. This section provides
additional information by addressing the following questions:

What Is a SIP?
What Is the Federal Approval Process for a SIP?
What Does Federal Approval of a State Regulation Mean to Me?
What Is Being Addressed in This Document?
Have the Requirements for Approval of a SIP Revision Been Met?
What Action Is EPA Taking?

What is a SIP?

    Section 110 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) requires states to develop
air pollution regulations and control strategies to ensure that state
air quality meets the national ambient air quality standards
established by EPA. These ambient standards are established under
section 109 of the CAA, and they currently address six criteria
pollutants. These pollutants are: Carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide,
ozone, lead, particulate matter, and sulfur dioxide.
    Each state must submit these regulations and control strategies to
us for approval and incorporation into the Federally-enforceable SIP.
    Each Federally-approved SIP protects air quality primarily by
addressing air pollution at its point of origin. These SIPs can be
extensive, containing state regulations or other enforceable documents
and supporting information such as emission inventories, monitoring
networks, and modeling demonstrations.

What Is the Federal Approval Process for a SIP?

    In order for state regulations to be incorporated into the
Federally-enforceable SIP, states must formally adopt the regulations
and control strategies consistent with state and Federal requirements.
This process generally includes a public notice, public hearing, public
comment period, and a formal adoption by a state-authorized rulemaking
body.
    Once a state rule, regulation, or control strategy is adopted, the
state submits it to us for inclusion into the SIP. We must provide
public notice and seek additional public comment regarding the proposed
Federal action on the state submission. If adverse comments are
received, they must be addressed prior to any final Federal action by
us.
    All state regulations and supporting information approved by EPA
under section 110 of the CAA are incorporated into the Federally-
approved SIP. Records of such SIP actions are maintained in the Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) at title 40, part 52, entitled ``Approval and
Promulgation of Implementation Plans.'' The actual state regulations
which are approved are not reproduced in their entirety in the CFR
outright but are ``incorporated by reference,'' which means that we
have approved a given state regulation with a specific effective date.

What Does Federal Approval of a State Regulation Mean to Me?

    Enforcement of the state regulation before and after it is
incorporated into the Federally-approved SIP is primarily a state
responsibility. However, after the regulation is Federally approved, we
are authorized to take enforcement action against violators. Citizens
are also offered legal recourse to address violations as described in
section 304 of the CAA.

What Is Being Addressed in This Document?

    EPA is approving a revision to the SIP for the State of Iowa to
establish exemptions for indoor sources of air pollution that are not
directly vented to the outside but have emissions that leave the
building through doors, vents or other means. The introductory
paragraph to the Iowa Administrative Code 567-22.1(2) ``Exemptions'' is
being changed to state that these additional permitting exemptions do
not relieve the owner or operator of any source from any obligation to
comply with any other applicable requirements. The change further
states that the exemptions from construction permitting listed in the
subrule with this rulemaking may be used provided that a permit is not
needed to create federally enforceable limits that restrict potential
to emit.
    The exemptions include equipment, processes and activities
identified in the rule and summarized below. The reader should refer to
the Iowa Administrative Code, Chapter 22.1(2)x. through ii. which is
part of the docket for this rulemaking for more detail concerning the
exemptions.
    1. The following equipment, processes, and activities: (1)
Facilities used for preparing food or beverages primarily for
consumption at the source; (2) Consumer use of certain office equipment
and products; (3) Janitorial services and consumer use of janitorial
products; (4) Internal combustion engines used for lawn care,
landscaping, and groundskeeping purposes; (5) Laundry activities, not
including dry cleaning and steam boilers; (6) Bathroom vent emissions;
(7) Blacksmith forges; (8) Plant maintenance and upkeep activities and
repair or maintenance shop activities, provided that these activities
are not conducted as part of a manufacturing process; (9) Air
compressors and vacuum pumps, including hand tools; (10) Batteries and
battery charging stations, except at battery manufacturing plants; (11)
Certain equipment used to store, mix, pump, handle or package soaps,
detergents, and other materials listed in the rule; (12) Equipment used
exclusively to slaughter animals; (13) Vents from continuous emissions
monitors and other analyzers; (14) Natural gas pressure regulator
vents, excluding venting at oil and gas production facilities; (15)
Certain equipment used by surface coating operations that apply the
coating by brush, roller, or dipping; (16) Hydraulic and hydrostatic
testing equipment; (17) Environmental chambers not using gases which
are hazardous air pollutants; (18) Shock chambers, humidity chambers,
and solar simulators; (19) Fugitive dust emissions related to movement
of passenger vehicles on unpaved road surfaces, provided that the
emissions are not counted for applicability purposes and that any
fugitive dust control plan or its equivalent is submitted as required
by the department; (20) Process water filtration systems and
demineralizers; (21) Boiler water treatment operations, not including
cooling towers or lime silos; (22) Oxygen scavenging (deaeration) of
water; (23) Fire suppression systems; (24) Emergency road flares; (25)
Steam vents, safety relief valves, and steam leaks; and, (26) Steam
sterilizers.
    2. Certain direct-fired equipment based on specified fuel types and
maximum heat input.
    3. Closed refrigeration systems, including storage tanks used in
refrigeration systems, excluding combustion equipment associated with
such systems.
    4. Pretreatment application processes that use aqueous-based
chemistries designed to prepare a substrate for an organic coating,
provided that the chemical concentrate contains no more than 5 percent
organic solvents by weight.
    5. Indoor-vented powder coating operations with filters or powder
recovery systems.
    6. Certain electric curing ovens or curing ovens used for powder
coating operations, and meeting fuel, heat input, and powder usage
restrictions.
    7. Small production painting, adhesive or coating units unless a
particular unit is subject to requirements of other rules specified in
the exemption.

    8. Production surface coating activities that use only
nonrefillable hand-held aerosol cans, where the total volatile organic
compound emissions from all these activities at a stationary source do
not exceed 5.0 tons per year.
    9. Production welding meeting specified design and usage
restrictions.
    10. Electric hand soldering, wave soldering, and electric solder
paste reflow ovens.
    11. Pressurized piping and storage systems for natural gas,
propane, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and refrigerants, where
emissions could only result from an upset condition.
    12. Emissions from the storage and mixing of paints and solvents
associated with the painting operations, provided that the emissions
from the storage and mixing are accounted for in an enforceable permit
condition or are otherwise exempt.
    Based on review of IDNR's technical evaluation documented in the
exemption justification document submitted with the rule and included
in the docket, these activities generate emissions that have little or
no environmental or human health consequences and can be exempted from
the requirement to obtain a construction permit.

Have the Requirements for Approval of a SIP Revision Been Met?

    The state submittal has met the public notice requirements for SIP
submissions in accordance with 40 CFR 51.102. The submittal also
satisfied the completeness criteria of 40 CFR part 51, appendix V. In
addition, as explained above and in more detail in the technical
support document that is part of this document, the revision meets the
substantive SIP requirements of the CAA, including section 110 and
implementing regulations.

What Action Is EPA Taking?

    EPA is approving a revision which adds permitting exemptions to the
Iowa Administrative Code. This revision also clarifies that the
permitting exemptions do not relieve the owner or operator of any
source from any obligation to comply with any other applicable
requirements.
    We are processing this action as a direct final action because the
revisions make minor changes to the existing rules that are
noncontroversial. Therefore, we do not anticipate any adverse comments.
Please note that if EPA receives adverse comment on part of this rule
and if that part can be severed from the remainder of the rule, EPA may
adopt as final those parts of the rule that are not the subject of an
adverse comment.

Statutory and Executive Order Reviews

    Under Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, October 4, 1993), this
action is not a ``significant regulatory action'' and therefore is not
subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. For this
reason, this action is also not subject to Executive Order 13211,
``Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy
Supply, Distribution, or Use'' (66 FR 28355, May 22, 2001). This action
merely approves state law as meeting Federal requirements and imposes
no additional requirements beyond those imposed by state law.
Accordingly, the Administrator certifies that this rule will not have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). Because
this rule approves pre-existing requirements under state law and does
not impose any additional enforceable duty beyond that required by
state law, it does not contain any unfunded mandate or significantly or
uniquely affect small governments, as described in the Unfunded
Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-4).
    This rule also does not have tribal implications because it will
not have a substantial direct effect on one or more Indian tribes, on
the relationship between the Federal Government and Indian tribes, or
on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Federal
Government and Indian tribes, as specified by Executive Order 13175 (65
FR 67249, November 9, 2000). This action also does not have Federalism
implications because it does not have substantial direct effects on the
States, on the relationship between the national government and the
States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the
various levels of government, as specified in Executive Order 13132 (64
FR 43255, August 10, 1999). This action merely approves a state rule
implementing a Federal standard, and does not alter the relationship or
the distribution of power and responsibilities established in the CAA.
This rule also is not subject to Executive Order 13045, ``Protection of
Children from Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks'' (62 FR
19885, April 23, 1997), because it is not economically significant.
    In reviewing SIP submissions, EPA's role is to approve state
choices, provided that they meet the criteria of the CAA. In this
context, in the absence of a prior existing requirement for the State
to use voluntary consensus standards (VCS), EPA has no authority to
disapprove a SIP submission for failure to use VCS. It would thus be
inconsistent with applicable law for EPA, when it reviews a SIP
submission, to use VCS in place of a SIP submission that otherwise
satisfies the provisions of the CAA. Thus, the requirements of section
12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995
(15 U.S.C. 272 note) do not apply. This rule does not impose an
information collection burden under the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
    The Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 801 et seq., as added by the
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996, generally
provides that before a rule may take effect, the agency promulgating
the rule must submit a rule report, which includes a copy of the rule,
to each House of the Congress and to the Comptroller General of the
United States. EPA will submit a report containing this rule and other
required information to the U.S. Senate, the U.S. House of
Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the United States prior
to publication of the rule in the Federal Register. A major rule cannot
take effect until 60 days after it is published in the Federal
Register. This action is not a ``major rule'' as defined by 5 U.S.C.
804(2).
    Under section 307(b)(1) of the Clean Air Act, petitions for
judicial review of this action must be filed in the United States Court
of Appeals for the appropriate circuit by May 1, 2006. Filing a
petition for reconsideration by the Administrator of this final rule
does not affect the finality of this rule for the purposes of judicial
review nor does it extend the time within which a petition for judicial
review may be filed, and shall not postpone the effectiveness of such
rule or action. This action may not be challenged later in proceedings
to enforce its requirements. (See section 307(b)(2).)

using the Company name box, at http://www.sec.gov/search/search.htm or
by calling<PHONE_NUMBER>.

Applicants' Representations

    1. The Trust, an Ohio business trust, is registered under the Act
as an open-end management investment company and currently is comprised
of two individually registered series, the LoCorr Managed Futures
Strategy Fund and LoCorr Long/Short Commodities Strategy Fund
(together, the ``LoCorr Funds''). Each of the LoCorr Funds currently
employs one unaffiliated investment subadviser (``Subadviser'').\1\
LFM, a Minnesota limited liability company, is, and each other Adviser
will be, registered as an investment adviser under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940 (the ``Advisers Act''). LFM serves as the
investment adviser of the LoCorr Funds, and an Adviser will serve as
investment adviser to the future Funds, pursuant to an investment
advisory agreement. The LoCorr Funds have entered into an investment
advisory agreement with LFM (the ``Advisory Agreement''),\2\ approved
by the Trust's board of trustees (the ``Board''),\3\ including a
majority of the trustees who are not ``interested persons,'' as defined
in section 2(a)(19) of the Act, of the Trust or the Adviser (the
``Independent Trustees''), and by shareholders representing a majority
of each of the LoCorr Funds' shares.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Applicants also request relief with respect to any existing
or future series of the Trust and any other existing or future
registered open-end management investment company or series thereof
that: (a) Is advised by the Adviser or any entity controlling,
controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser or its
successors (included within the term ``Adviser''); (b) uses the
manager of managers structure (``Manager of Managers Structure'')
described in the application; and (c) complies with the terms and
conditions of the application (together with the LoCorr Funds, the
``Funds'' and each, individually, a ``Fund''). For the purposes of
the requested order, ``successor'' is limited to any entity or
entities that would result from a reorganization into another
jurisdiction or a change in the type of business organization. All
existing entities that currently intend to rely on the requested
order are named as applicants, and the LoCorr Funds are the only
Funds that currently intend to rely on the requested order. If the
name of any Fund contains the name of a Subadviser, the name of the
Adviser will precede the name of the Subadviser.
    \2\ The Adviser will enter into substantially similar investment
advisory agreements to provide investment management services to
future Funds (``Future Advisory Agreements''). The terms of Future
Advisory Agreements will comply with section 15(a) of the Act and
Future Advisory Agreements will be approved by shareholders and by
the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, in the
manner required by sections 15(a) and 15(c) of the Act and rule 18f-
2 thereunder. References to any Advisory Agreement or Advisory
Agreements include Future Advisory Agreements as they pertain to
future Funds.
    \3\ The term ``Board'' also includes the board of trustees or
directors of a future Fund.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    2. Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is
responsible for the overall management of the LoCorr Funds' business
affairs and selecting investments according to the LoCorr Funds'
investment objectives, policies and restrictions. For the investment
management services that it provides to the LoCorr Funds, the Adviser
receives the fee specified in the Advisory Agreement. The Advisory
Agreement also permits the Adviser to retain one or more subadvisers
for the purpose of managing the investments of all or a portion of the
assets of the LoCorr Funds. Pursuant to this authority, the Adviser
intends to enter into investment subadvisory agreements with one or
more Subadvisers to provide investment advisory services to the Funds
(each, a ``Subadvisory Agreement'' and together, the ``Subadvisory
Agreements''). Each Subadviser will be registered as an investment
adviser under the Advisers Act. The Adviser will supervise, evaluate
and allocate assets to the Subadvisers, and make

recommendations to the Board about their hiring, retention or release,
at all times subject to the authority of the Board. The Adviser will
compensate each Subadviser out of the fees paid to the Adviser under
the Advisory Agreement.
    3. Applicants request an order to permit the Adviser, subject to
Board approval, to enter into and materially amend Subadvisory
Agreements without obtaining shareholder approval. The requested relief
will not extend to any subadviser that is an affiliated person, as
defined in section 2(a)(3) of the Act, of the Trust, a Fund or the
Adviser, other than by reason of serving as a subadviser to one or more
of the Funds (an ``Affiliated Subadviser'').
    4. Funds will inform shareholders of the hiring of a new Subadviser
pursuant to the following procedures (``Modified Notice and Access
Procedures''): (a) Within 90 days after a new Subadviser is hired for
any Fund, that Fund will send its shareholders either a Multi-manager
Notice or a Multi-manager Notice and Multi-manager Information
Statement; \4\ and (b) the Fund will make the Multi-manager Information
Statement available on the Web site identified in the Multi-manager
Notice no later than when the Multi-manager Notice (or Multi-manager
Notice and Multi-manager Information Statement) is first sent to
shareholders, and will maintain it on that Web site for at least 90
days. In the circumstances described in the application, a proxy
solicitation to approve the appointment of new Subadvisers provides no
more meaningful information to shareholders than the proposed Multi-
manager Information Statement. Moreover, as indicated above, the Board
would comply with the requirements of sections 15(a) and 15(c) of the
Act before entering into or amending Subadvisory Agreements.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ A ``Multi-manager Notice'' will be modeled on a Notice of
Internet Availability as defined in rule 14a-16 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange Act''), and specifically will,
among other things: (a) Summarize the relevant information regarding
the new Subadviser; (b) inform shareholders that the Multi-manager
Information Statement is available on a Web site; (c) provide the
Web site address; (d) state the time period during which the Multi-
manager Information Statement will remain available on that Web
site; (e) provide instructions for accessing and printing the Multi-
manager Information Statement; and (f) instruct the shareholder that
a paper or email copy of the Multi-manager Information Statement may
be obtained, without charge, by contacting the Funds. A ``Multi-
manager Information Statement'' will meet the requirements of
Regulation 14C, Schedule 14C and Item 22 of Schedule 14A under the
Exchange Act for an information statement. Multi-manager Information
Statements will be filed electronically with the Commission via the
EDGAR system.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Applicants' Legal Analysis

    1. Section 15(a) of the Act provides, in relevant part, that it is
unlawful for any person to act as an investment adviser to a registered
investment company except pursuant to a written contract that has been
approved by the vote of a majority of the company's outstanding voting
securities. Rule 18f-2 under the Act provides that each series or class
of securities in a series investment company affected by a matter must
approve that matter if the Act requires shareholder approval.
    2. Section 6(c) of the Act provides that the Commission may exempt
any person, security, or transaction or any class or classes of
persons, securities, or transactions from any provisions of the Act, or
from any rule thereunder, if such exemption is necessary or appropriate
in the public interest and consistent with the protection of investors
and the purposes fairly intended by the policy and provisions of the
Act. Applicants state that the requested relief meets this standard.
    3. Applicants assert that the shareholders expect the Adviser and
the Board to select the Subadvisers for the Funds that are best suited
to achieve each Fund's investment objective. Applicants assert that,
from the perspective of the investor, the role of the Subadvisers is
substantially equivalent to that of the individual portfolio managers
employed by the Adviser. Applicants state that requiring shareholder
approval of each Subadvisory Agreement would impose costs and
unnecessary delays on the Funds, and may preclude the Adviser from
acting promptly in a manner considered advisable by the Board.
Applicants note that the Advisory Agreement and any Subadvisory
Agreement with an Affiliated Subadviser will remain subject to section
15(a) of the Act and rule 18f-2 under the Act, including the
requirement for shareholder voting.

Applicants' Conditions

    Applicants agree that any order granting the requested relief will
be subject to the following conditions:
    1. Before a Fund may rely on the requested order, the operation of
the Fund in the manner described in the application will be approved by
a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities, as defined in
the Act, or in the case of a Fund whose public shareholders purchase
shares on the basis of a prospectus containing the disclosure
contemplated by condition 2 below, by the initial shareholder(s) before
offering shares of that Fund to the public.
    2. Each Fund relying on the requested order will disclose in its
prospectus the existence, substance, and effect of any order granted
pursuant to the application. Each Fund will hold itself out to the
public as utilizing the Manager of Managers Structure. The prospectus
will prominently disclose that the Adviser has ultimate responsibility
(subject to oversight by the Board) to oversee the Subadvisers and
recommend their hiring, termination, and replacement.
    3. Funds will inform shareholders of the hiring of a new Subadviser
within 90 days after the hiring of the new Subadviser pursuant to the
Modified Notice and Access Procedures.
    4. The Adviser will not enter into a subadvisory agreement with any
Affiliated Subadviser without such agreement, including the
compensation to be paid thereunder, being approved by the shareholders
of the applicable Fund.
    5. At all times, at least a majority of the Board will be
Independent Trustees, and the nomination of new or additional
Independent Trustees will be placed within the discretion of the then-
existing Independent Trustees.
    6. Whenever a subadviser change is proposed for a Fund with an
Affiliated Subadviser, the Board, including a majority of the
Independent Trustees, will make a separate finding, reflected in the
applicable Board minutes, that such change is in the best interests of
the Fund and its shareholders, and does not involve a conflict of
interest from which the Adviser or the Affiliated Subadviser derives an
inappropriate advantage.
    7. The Adviser will provide general management services to each
Fund, including overall supervisory responsibility for the general
management and investment of each Fund's assets and, subject to review
and approval of the Board, will: (a) Set each Fund's overall investment
strategies; (b) evaluate, select and recommend Subadvisers to manage
all or a part of each Fund's assets; (c) allocate and, when
appropriate, reallocate each Fund's assets among one or more
Subadvisers; (d) monitor and evaluate the performance of Subadvisers;
and (e) implement procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the
Subadvisers comply with each Fund's investment objective, policies and
restrictions.
    8. No trustee or officer of the Trust or a Fund, or director,
manager, or officer of the Adviser, will own directly or indirectly
(other than through a pooled

investment vehicle that is not controlled by such person), any interest
in a Subadviser, except for (a) ownership of interests in the Adviser
or any entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common
control with the Adviser or (b) ownership of less than 1% of the
outstanding securities of any class of equity or debt of any publicly
traded company that is either a Subadviser or an entity that controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with a Subadviser.
    9. In the event the Commission adopts a rule under the Act
providing substantially similar relief to that in the order requested
in the application, the requested order will expire on the effective
date of that rule.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
under delegated authority.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-74192; File No. SR-ICC-2015-003]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; ICE Clear Credit LLC; Notice of
Filing of Proposed Rule Change To Provide for the Clearance of
Additional Standard Emerging Market Sovereign Single Names

February 3, 2015.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder \2\ notice is hereby given that
on January 23, 2015, ICE Clear Credit LLC (``ICC'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule
change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have
been prepared primarily by ICC. The Commission is publishing this
notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested
persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change

    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to adopt rules that will
provide the basis for ICC to clear additional credit default swap
contracts. Specifically, ICC is proposing to amend Subchapter 26D of
its rules to provide for the clearance of additional Standard Emerging
Market Sovereign CDS contracts (collectively, ``SES Contracts'').
    ICC has been approved to clear eight SES Contracts: The Federative
Republic of Brazil, the United Mexican States, the Bolivarian Republic
of Venezuela, the Argentine Republic, the Republic of Turkey, the
Russian Federation, the Republic of Hungary, and the Republic of South
Africa. The proposed change to the ICC Rules would provide for the
clearance of additional SES Contracts, specifically the Republic of
Chile, the Republic of Peru, the Republic of

Colombia, Ukraine, and the Republic of Poland.

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, ICC included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. ICC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B,
and C below, of the most significant aspects of these statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    The purpose of the proposed rule change is to adopt rules that will
provide the basis for ICC to clear additional credit default swap
contracts. ICC has been approved to clear eight SES Contracts: The
Federative Republic of Brazil, the United Mexican States, the
Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the Argentine Republic, the Republic
of Turkey, the Russian Federation, the Republic of Hungary, and the
Republic of South Africa. ICC proposes amending Subchapter 26D of its
Rules to provide for the clearance of additional SES Contracts,
specifically the Republic of Chile, the Republic of Peru, the Republic
of Colombia, Ukraine, and the Republic of Poland. These additional SES
Contracts will be offered on the 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives
Definitions. The addition of these SES Contracts will benefit the
market for emerging market credit default swaps by providing market
participants the benefits of clearing, including reduction in
counterparty risk and safeguarding of margin assets pursuant to
clearing house rules. Clearing of the additional SES Contracts will not
require any changes to ICC's Risk Management Framework or other
policies and procedures constituting rules within the meaning of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'').
    These additional SES Contracts have terms consistent with the other
SES Contracts approved for clearing at ICC and governed by Subchapter
26D of the ICC rules, namely the Federative Republic of Brazil, the
United Mexican States, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the
Argentine Republic, the Republic of Turkey, the Russian Federation, the
Republic of Hungary, and the Republic of South Africa. Minor revisions
to Subchapter 26D (Standard Emerging Market Sovereign (``SES'') Single
Name) are made to provide for clearing the additional SES Contracts and
described as follows.
    Rule 26D-102 is modified to include the Republic of Chile, the
Republic of Peru, the Republic of Colombia, Ukraine, and the Republic
of Poland in the list of specific Eligible SES Reference Entities to be
cleared by ICC.
    Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act \3\ requires, among other things,
that the rules of a clearing agency be designed to promote the prompt
and accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions and,
to the extent applicable, derivative agreements, contracts, and
transactions. The clearance of additional SES Contracts will allow
market participants an increased ability to manage risk. ICC believes
that acceptance of these new contracts, on the terms and conditions set
out in the ICC Rules, is consistent with the prompt and accurate
clearance of and settlement of securities transactions and derivative
agreements, contracts and transactions cleared by ICC, the safeguarding
of securities and funds in the custody or control of ICC, and the
protection of investors and the public interest, within the meaning of
Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(F).
    \4\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Clearing of the additional SES Contracts will also satisfy the
requirements of Rule 17Ad-22.\5\ In particular, in terms of financial
resources, ICC will apply its existing margin methodology to the
additional SES Contracts. ICC believes that this model will provide
sufficient margin to cover its credit exposure to its clearing members
from clearing such contracts, consistent with the requirements of Rule
17Ad-22(b)(2).\6\ In addition, ICC believes its Guaranty Fund, under
its existing methodology, will, together with the required margin,
provide sufficient financial resources to support the clearing of the
new contracts consistent with the requirements of Rule 17Ad-
22(b)(3).\7\ ICC also believes that its existing operational and
managerial resources will be sufficient for clearing of the additional
SES Contracts, consistent with the requirements of Rule 17Ad-
22(d)(4),\8\ as the new contracts are similar from an operational
perspective to existing SES Contracts. Similarly, ICC will use its
existing settlement procedures and account structures for the new
contracts, consistent with the requirements of Rule 17Ad-22(d)(5), (12)
and (15) \9\ as to the finality and accuracy of its daily settlement
process and avoidance of the risk to ICC of settlement failures.
Finally, ICC will apply its existing default management policies and
procedures for the new contracts. ICC believes that these procedures
allow for it to take timely action to contain losses and liquidity
pressures and to continue meeting its obligations in the event of
clearing member insolvencies or defaults in respect of the additional
SES Contracts, in accordance with Rule 17Ad-22(d)(11).\10\

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The additional SES Contracts will be available to all ICC
Participants for clearing. The clearing of these additional SES
Contracts by ICC does not preclude the offering of the additional SES
Contracts for clearing by other market participants. Accordingly, ICC
does not believe that clearance of the additional SES Contracts will
impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others

    Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not been
solicited or received. ICC will notify the Commission of any written
comments received by ICC.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Within 45 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period up to 90 days (i) as the
Commission may designate if it finds such longer period to be
appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) By order approve or disapprove such proposed rule change, or
    (B) institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

    Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.

Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods:

B. What Should I Consider as I Prepare My Comments for EPA?

    1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this information to EPA through
regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark the part or all of the
information that you claim to be CBI. For CBI information in a disk or
CD ROM that you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the disk or CD ROM as
CBI and then identify electronically within the disk or CD ROM the
specific information that is claimed as CBI. In addition to one
complete version of the comment that includes information claimed as
CBI, a copy of the comment that does not contain the information
claimed as CBI must be submitted for inclusion in the public docket.
Information so marked will not be disclosed except in accordance with
procedures set forth in 40 CFR part 2.
    2. Tips for preparing your comments. When submitting comments,
remember to:
    i. Identify the document by docket ID number and other identifying
information (subject heading, Federal Register date and page number).
    ii. Follow directions. The Agency may ask you to respond to
specific questions or organize comments by referencing a Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR) part or section number.
    iii. Explain why you agree or disagree; suggest alternatives and
substitute language for your requested changes.

    iv. Describe any assumptions and provide any technical information
and/or data that you used.
    v. If you estimate potential costs or burdens, explain how you
arrived at your estimate in sufficient detail to allow for it to be
reproduced.
    vi. Provide specific examples to illustrate your concerns and
suggest alternatives.
    vii. Explain your views as clearly as possible, avoiding the use of
profanity or personal threats.
    viii. Make sure to submit your comments by the comment period
deadline identified.

II. What Action is the Agency Taking?

    EPA is printing a summary of a pesticide petition received under
section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), 21
U.S.C. 346a, proposing the establishment or amendment of regulations in
40 CFR part 180 for residues of pesticide chemicals in or on various
food commodities. EPA has determined that this pesticide petition
contains data or information regarding the elements set forth in FFDCA
section 408(d)(2); however, EPA has not fully evaluated the sufficiency
of the submitted data at this time or whether the data support granting
of the pesticide petition. Additional data may be needed before EPA
rules on this pesticide petition.
    Pursuant to 40 CFR 180.7(f), a summary of the petition included in
this notice, prepared by the petitioner is available on EPA's
Electronic Docket at http://www.regulations.gov. To locate this

information on the home page of EPA's Electronic Docket, select ``Quick
Search'' and type the OPP docket ID number. Once the search has located
