WITNESSETH :

WHEREAS, CMF is the general partner of the Partnership, a limited partnership organized for the purpose of speculative trading of commodity interests, including futures contracts, options, forward contracts, swaps and other derivative instruments with the objective of achieving substantial capital appreciation; and

WHEREAS, such trading is to be conducted directly or through investment in SECOR Master Fund L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Master Fund”) of which CMF is the trading manager and SECOR is the advisor; and

WHEREAS, the Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Partnership, dated as of October 31, 2017 (the “Partnership Agreement”), permits CMF to delegate to one or more commodity trading advisors CMF’s authority to make trading decisions on behalf of the Partnership; and

WHEREAS, the Advisor is registered as a commodity trading advisor with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and is a member of the National Futures Association (“NFA”); and

WHEREAS, CMF is registered as a commodity trading advisor and a commodity pool operator with the CFTC and is a member of the NFA; and

WHEREAS, CMF, the Partnership and the Advisor wish to enter into this Agreement in order to set forth the terms and conditions upon which the Advisor will render and implement advisory services in connection with the conduct by the Partnership of its commodity interest trading activities during the term of this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

1.    DUTIES OF THE ADVISOR. (a) For the period and on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Advisor shall have sole authority and responsibility, as one of the Partnership’s agents andattorneys-in-fact, for directing the investment and reinvestment of the assets and funds of the Partnership, whether directly or indirectly through the Master Fund, allocated to it from time to time by CMF in commodity interests, including commodity futures contracts, options on futures contracts, spot and forward contracts. The Advisor may also engage in swap transactions and other derivative transactions on behalf of the Partnership with the prior written approval of CMF. All such trading on behalf of the Partnership shall be in accordance with (i) the trading policies expressly set forth in Appendix B hereto (the “CMF

Trading Policies”), as such trading policies may be changed from time to time upon receipt by the Advisor of prior written notice of such change, and (ii) pursuant to the trading strategy selected by CMF to be utilized by the Advisor in managing the Partnership’s assets allocated to it. CMF has initially selected a variation of the program traded by SECOR Alpha Master Fund L.P. (the “Program”), as described in Appendix A attached hereto, to manage the Partnership’s assets allocated to it. Any open positions or other investments at the time of receipt of such notice of a change in trading policy shall not be deemed to violate the changed policy and shall be closed or sold in the ordinary course of trading. The Advisor may not deviate from the CMF Trading Policies without the prior written consent of the Partnership given by CMF. The Advisor makes no representation or warranty that the trading to be directed by it for the Partnership will be profitable or will not incur losses.

(b)    CMF acknowledges receipt of the description of the Program, attached hereto as Appendix A. All trades made by the Advisor for the account of the Partnership, whether directly or indirectly through the Master Fund, shall be made through such commodity broker or brokers as CMF shall direct, and the Advisor shall have no authority or responsibility for selecting or supervising any such broker in connection with the execution, clearance or confirmation of transactions for the Partnership or for the negotiation of brokerage rates charged therefor. However, the Advisor, with the prior written permission (by original, fax copy or email copy) of CMF, may direct any and all trades in commodity futures and options to a futures commission merchant or independent floor broker it chooses for execution with instructions togive-up the trades to the broker designated by CMF, provided that the futures commission merchant, independent floor broker or swap dealer and anygive-up or floor brokerage fees are approved in advance by CMF. The Advisor, with the prior written permission (by original, fax copy or email copy) of CMF, may enter into swaps and other derivative transactions with any swap dealer it chooses for execution with instructions togive-up the trades to the broker designated by CMF, provided that the swap dealer and anygive-up or other fees are approved in advance by CMF. Allgive-up or similar fees relating to the foregoing shall be paid by the Partnership, directly or indirectly through the Master Fund, after all parties have executed the relevantgive-up agreements (via EGUS or by original, fax copy or email copy).

(c)    The initial allocation of the Partnership’s assets to the Advisor shall be made to the Program, as described in Appendix A, attached hereto, provided that CMF, the Partnership and the Advisor agree that for so long as the Partnership trades through the Master Fund the amount of leverage applied to the assets of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor by CMF shall be in accordance with the terms of the agreement by and among CMF, the Master Fund and the Advisor, dated as of January 1, 2018 as such agreement may be amended from time to time. In the event the Advisor wishes to use a trading system or methodology other than or in addition to the Program in connection with its trading for the Partnership, either in whole or in part, it may not do so unless the Advisor gives CMF prior written notice of its intention to utilize such different trading system or methodology and CMF consents thereto in writing. In addition, the Advisor will provide five days’ prior written notice to CMF of any change in the trading system or methodology to be utilized for the Partnership which the Advisor deems material. If the Advisor deems such change in system or methodology or in markets traded to be material, the changed system or methodology or markets traded will not be utilized for the Partnership without the prior written consent of CMF. In addition, the Advisor will notify CMF of any changes to the trading system or methodology that would require a change in the description of

- 2 -

the trading strategy or methods described in Appendix A to be materially accurate. Further, the Advisor will provide the Partnership with a current list of all commodity interests to be traded for the Partnership’s account and the Advisor will not trade any additional commodity interests for such account without providing notice thereof to CMF and receiving CMF’s written approval. The Advisor also agrees to provide CMF, on a monthly basis, with a written report of the assets under the Advisor’s management together with all other matters deemed by the Advisor to be material changes to its business not previously reported to CMF. The Advisor further agrees that it will convert foreign currency balances (not required to margin positions denominated in a foreign currency) to U.S. dollars no less frequently than monthly. U.S. dollar equivalents in individual foreign currencies of more than $100,000 will be converted to U.S. dollars within one business day after such funds are no longer needed to margin foreign positions.

(d)    The Advisor agrees to make all material disclosures to the Partnership regarding itself and its principals as defined in Part 4 of the CFTC’s regulations (“principals”), its members, directors, officers and employees, their trading performance and general trading methods, its customer accounts (but not the identities of or identifying information with respect to its customers) and otherwise as are required in the reasonable judgment of CMF to be made in any filings required by federal or state law or NFA rule or order. Notwithstanding Sections 1(d) and 4(d) of this Agreement, the Advisor is not required to disclose the actual trading results of proprietary accounts of the Advisor or its principals unless CMF reasonably determines that such disclosure is required in order to fulfill its fiduciary obligations to the Partnership or the reporting, filing or other obligations imposed on it by federal or state law or NFA rule or order. The Partnership and CMF acknowledge that the trading advice to be provided by the Advisor is a property right belonging to the Advisor and undertakes to handle such trading advice, and any data or information from the Advisor received in fulfillment of this Agreement in a confidential manner, including, but not limited to, the Advisor’s proprietary trading programs, trading data, trading instructions, trade execution, research databases, computer software, systematic methodologies and the systematic trading approach (including positions established thereto, whether for the Partnership or other clients of the Advisor), and all other related information (the “Confidential Information”). Subject to CMF’s and the Partnership’s right to comply with any requirement or demand of any self-regulatory, regulatory, judicial or taxing authority having jurisdiction over either of them, the Partnership and CMF shall take all reasonable steps to protect the Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, using the same standard of care that the Partnership and CMF apply to safeguard their own respective proprietary, secret or confidential information and to store and handle the Confidential Information in such a way as to prevent any unauthorized disclosure thereof. The Partnership shall notify the Advisor within a reasonable time upon discovery of any unauthorized use of, access to, or disclosure of Confidential Information, and agrees to cooperate with reasonable requests by the Advisor to help regain possession of such Confidential Information and to prevent its further unauthorized use, disclosure or access. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the Partnership and CMF may provide the Confidential Information to its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, counsel, auditors, consultants, administrators, agents and service providers who need to know such information in connection with their duties to the Partnership or CMF, as the case may be;provided, that such persons are informed of the confidential nature of such information and agree to keep it confidential as provided herein. The term “Confidential Information” does not include any information which (i) is publicly available other than as a result of unauthorized disclosure by the Partnership, (ii) is available to the

- 3 -

Partnership on anon-confidential basis from a source other than the Advisor, (iii) is independently developed by the Partnership or on its behalf without any reference to the Confidential Information or (iv) is provided by the Advisor and is included in investor materials which have been reviewed and approved by the Advisor.

(e)    The Advisor understands and agrees that CMF may designate other trading advisors for the Partnership and apportion or reapportion to such other trading advisors the management of an amount of Net Asset Value of the Partnership (as defined in Section 3(b) hereof) as it shall determine in its absolute discretion. The designation of other trading advisors and the apportionment or reapportionment of Net Asset Value of the Partnership to any such trading advisors pursuant to this Section 1 shall neither terminate this Agreement nor modify in any regard the respective rights and obligations of the parties hereunder.

(f)    CMF may, from time to time, in its absolute discretion, select additional trading advisors and reapportion funds among the trading advisors for the Partnership as it deems appropriate. CMF shall use its best efforts to make reapportionments, if any, as of the first day of a calendar month. The Advisor agrees that it may be called upon at any time promptly to liquidate positions in CMF’s sole discretion so that CMF may reallocate the Partnership’s assets, meet margin calls on the Partnership’s account, fund redemptions, or for any other reason, except that CMF will not require the liquidation of specific positions by the Advisor. CMF will use its best efforts to give two business days’ prior notice to the Advisor of any reallocations or liquidations.

(g)    The Advisor shall assume financial responsibility for any errors committed or caused by it in transmitting orders for the purchase or sale of commodity interests for the Partnership’s account including payment to the brokers of the floor brokerage commissions, exchange, NFA fees, and other transaction charges andgive-up charges incurred by the brokers on such trades. The Advisor’s errors shall include, but not be limited to, inputting improper trading signals or communicating incorrect orders to the commodity brokers. The Advisor shall have an affirmative obligation to promptly notify CMF in accordance with the provisions of Section 8(a)(iii) of any errors with respect to the account, and the Advisor shall use its best efforts to identify and promptly notify CMF of any order or trade which the Advisor reasonably believes was not executed in accordance with its instructions to any broker utilized to execute orders for the Partnership.

2.    INDEPENDENCE OF THE ADVISOR. For all purposes herein, the Advisor shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and, unless otherwise expressly provided or authorized, shall have no authority to act for or represent the Partnership in any way and shall not be deemed an agent, promoter or sponsor of the Partnership, CMF, or any other trading advisor. The Advisor shall not be responsible to the Partnership, CMF, any trading advisor or any limited partners for any acts or omissions of any other trading advisor to the Partnership.

3.    COMPENSATION. (a) In consideration of and as compensation for all of the services to be rendered by the Advisor to the Partnership under this Agreement, the Partnership shall pay the Advisor (i) an incentive fee payable annually equal to 25% of New Trading Profits (as such term is defined below) earned by the Advisor for the Partnership (the

- 4 -

“Incentive Fee”) and (ii) a monthly fee for professional management services equal to 1/12 of 1.15% (1.15% per year) of the beginning of the month Net Asset Value of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor (computed monthly by multiplying the Net Asset Value of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor as of the first day of each calendar month by 1.15% and dividing the result thereof by 12) (the “Management Fee”).

(b)    “Net Asset Value of the Partnership” shall have the meaning set forth in Section 7(d)(1) of the Partnership Agreement and, unless the Advisor consents in writing, without regard to further amendments thereto, provided that in determining the Net Asset Value of the Partnership on any date, no adjustment shall be made to reflect any distributions, redemptions, administrative fees or incentive fees accrued or payable as of the date of such determination.

(c)    “New Trading Profits” shall mean the excess, if any, of Net Asset Value of the Partnership managed by the Advisor at the end of the fiscal period over Net Asset Value of the Partnership managed by the Advisor at the end of the highest previous fiscal period or Net Asset Value of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor at the date trading commences by the Advisor for the Partnership, whichever is higher, and as further adjusted to eliminate the effect on Net Asset Value of the Partnership resulting from new capital contributions, redemptions, reallocations or capital distributions, if any, made during the fiscal period decreased by interest or other income, not directly related to trading activity, earned on the Partnership’s assets during the fiscal period, whether the assets are held separately or in margin accounts. Ongoing expenses shall be attributed to the Advisor based on the Advisor’s proportionate share of Net Asset Value of the Partnership. Ongoing expenses shall not include expenses of litigation not involving the activities of the Advisor on behalf of the Partnership. No Incentive Fee shall be paid to the Advisor until the end of the first full calendar year of the Advisor’s trading for the Partnership, which fee shall be based on New Trading Profits (if any) earned from the commencement of trading by the Advisor on behalf of the Partnership through the end of the first full calendar year of such trading. Interest income earned, if any, will not be taken into account in computing New Trading Profits earned by the Advisor. If Net Asset Value of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor is reduced due to redemptions, distributions or reallocations (net of additions), there will be a corresponding proportional reduction in the related loss carryforward amount that must be recouped before the Advisor is eligible to receive another Incentive Fee.

(d)    Annual Incentive Fees and monthly Management Fees shall be paid within twenty (20) business days following the end of the period for which such fee is payable. In the event of the termination of this Agreement as of any date which shall not be the end of a calendar year or a calendar month, as the case may be, the annual Incentive Fee shall be computed as if the effective date of termination were the last day of the then current year and the monthly Management Fee shall be prorated to the effective date of termination. If, during any month, the Partnership does not conduct business operations or the Advisor is unable to provide the services contemplated herein for more than two successive business days, the monthly Management Fee shall be prorated by the ratio which the number of business days during which CMF conducted the Partnership’s business operations or utilized the Advisor’s services bears in the month to the total number of business days in such month.

- 5 -

(e)    The provisions of this Section 3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

4.    RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN OTHER ACTIVITIES. (a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the services provided by the Advisor hereunder are not to be deemed exclusive. CMF on its own behalf and on behalf of the Partnership acknowledges that, subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Advisor and its officers, directors, employees and members may render advisory, consulting and management services to other clients and accounts. The Advisor and its officers, directors, employees and members shall be free to trade for their own accounts and to advise other investors and manage other commodity accounts during the term of this Agreement and to use the same information, computer programs and trading strategies, programs or formulas which they obtain, produce or utilize in the performance of services to CMF for the Partnership. However, the Advisor represents, warrants and agrees that it believes the rendering of such consulting, advisory and management services to other accounts and entities will not require any material change in the Advisor’s basic trading strategies for the Partnership and will not affect the capacity of the Advisor to continue to render services to CMF for the Partnership of the quality and nature contemplated by this Agreement.

(b)    If, at any time during the term of this Agreement, the Advisor is required to aggregate the Partnership’s commodity positions with the positions of any other person for purposes of applyingCFTC- orexchange-imposed speculative position limits, the Advisor agrees that it will promptly notify CMF in writing if the Partnership’s positions are included in an aggregate amount which exceeds the applicable speculative position limit. The Advisor agrees that, if its trading recommendations are altered because of the application of any speculative position limits, it will not modify the trading instructions with respect to the Partnership’s account in such manner as to affect the Partnership substantially disproportionately as compared with the Advisor’s other accounts. The Advisor further represents, warrants and agrees that under no circumstances will it knowingly or deliberately use trading programs, strategies or methods for the Partnership that are inferior to strategies or methods employed for any other client or account and that it will not knowingly or deliberately favor any client or account managed by it over any other client or account in any manner, it being acknowledged, however, that different trading programs, strategies or methods may be utilized for differing sizes of accounts, accounts with different trading policies or risk parameters, accounts experiencing differing inflows or outflows of equity, accounts that commence trading at different times, accounts that have different portfolios or different fiscal years, accounts utilizing different executing brokers and accounts with other differences, and that such differences may cause divergent trading results.

(c)    CMF and the Partnership each acknowledge and agree that the Advisor and/or its officers, employees, directors and members presently act, and it is agreed that they may continue to act, as advisor for other accounts managed by them, and may continue to receive compensation with respect to services for such accounts in amounts which may be more or less than the amounts received from the Partnership.

(d)    The Advisor agrees that it shall make such information available to CMF respecting the performance of the Partnership’s account as compared to the performance of other accounts managed by the Advisor or its principals, if any, as shall be reasonably requested in

- 6 -

writing (including via email) by CMF. The Advisor presently believes and represents that existing speculative position limits will not materially adversely affect its ability to manage the Partnership’s account given the potential size of the Partnership’s account and the Advisor’s and its principals’ current accounts and all proposed accounts for which they have contracted to act as trading advisor.

5.    TERM. (a) This Agreement shall continue in effect until December 31, 2019 (the “Initial Termination Date”). If this Agreement is not terminated on the Initial Termination Date, as provided for herein, then, this Agreement shall automatically renew for an additionalone-year period and shall continue to renew for additionalone-year periods until this Agreement is otherwise terminated, as provided for herein.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order or settlement shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Advisor did not act in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership.

(ii)    Without limiting subsection (i) above, to the extent that the Advisor has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsection (i) above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, CMF shall indemnify the Advisor against the Losses incurred by it in connection therewith.

(iii)    Any indemnification under subsection (i) above, unless ordered by a court or administrative forum, shall be made by CMF only as authorized in the specific case and only upon a determination by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that such indemnification is proper in the circumstances because the Advisor has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsection (i) above. Such independent legal counsel shall be selected by CMF in a timely manner, subject to the Advisor’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Advisor will be deemed to have approved CMF’s selection unless the Advisor notifies CMF in writing, received by CMF within five days of CMF’s telecopying to the Advisor of the notice of CMF’s selection, that the Advisor does not approve the selection.

(iv)    In the event the Advisor is made a party to any claim, dispute or litigation or otherwise incurs any loss or expense as a result of, or in connection with, the Partnership’s or CMF’s activities or claimed activities unrelated to the Advisor, CMF shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Advisor against any Losses incurred in connection therewith.

- 8 -

(v)    As used in this Section 6(a), the term “Advisor” shall include the Advisor, its principals, officers, directors, members, partners and employees and the term “CMF” shall include the Partnership.

(b)    (i) The Advisor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless CMF, the Partnership and their affiliates against any Losses reasonably incurred by them (A) as a result of the material breach of any representations and warranties or covenants made by the Advisor in this Agreement, or (B) as a result of any act or omission of the Advisor relating to the Partnership if(i) there has been a final judicial or regulatory determination, or a written opinion of an arbitrator pursuant to Section 14 hereof, to the effect that such acts or omissions violated the terms of this Agreement in any material respect or involved negligence, bad faith, recklessness or intentional misconduct on the part of the Advisor (except as otherwise provided in Section 1(g)), or(ii) there has been a settlement of any action or proceeding with the Advisor’s prior written consent.

(ii)    In the event CMF, the Partnership or any of their affiliates is made a party to any claim, dispute or litigation or otherwise incurs any loss or expense as a result of, or in connection with, the activities or claimed activities of the Advisor or its principals, officers, directors, members or employees unrelated to CMF’s or the Partnership’s business, the Advisor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless CMF, the Partnership or any of their affiliates against any Losses incurred in connection therewith.

(iii)    Any indemnification under subsection (b)(i) above, unless ordered by a court or administrative forum, shall be made by the Advisor only as authorized in the specific case and only upon a determination by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that such indemnification is proper in the circumstances. Such independent legal counsel shall be selected by the Advisor in a timely manner, subject to the CMF’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. CMF will be deemed to have approved the Advisor’s selection unless CMF notifies the Advisor in writing, received by the Advisor within five days of the Advisor’s telecopying to CMF of the notice of the Advisor’s selection, that CMF does not approve the selection.

(c)    In the event that a person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 is made a party to an action, suit or proceeding alleging both matters for which indemnification can be made hereunder and matters for which indemnification may not be made hereunder, such person shall be indemnified only for that portion of the Losses incurred in such action, suit or proceeding which relates to the matters for which indemnification can be made.

(d)    None of the indemnifications contained in this Section 6 shall be applicable with respect to default judgments, confessions of judgment or settlements entered into by the party claiming indemnification without the prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, of the party obligated to indemnify such party.

- 11 -

Appendix B

The Partnership, either directly or indirectly through its investment in the Master Fund, and the Advisor will follow the trading policies set forth below:

1.    The Partnership will invest its assets only in commodity interests that the Advisor believes are traded in sufficient volume to permit ease of taking and liquidating positions. Sufficient volume, in this context, refers to a level of liquidity that the Advisor believes will permit it to enter and exit trades without noticeably moving the market.

2.    The Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity interest if these positions would result in aggregate positions requiring margin of more than 66 2/3% of the Partnership’s net assets allocated to the Advisor. To the extent the CFTC and/or exchanges have not otherwise established margin requirements with respect to particular contracts (i) forward contracts in currencies will be deemed to have approximately the same margin requirements as the same or similar futures contracts traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and (ii) swap contracts will be deemed to have margin requirements equivalent to the collateral deposits, if any, made with swap counterparties.

3.    The Partnership may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearinghouse, the physical commodity position will be fully hedged.

4.    The Advisor will not employ the trading technique commonly known as “pyramiding,” in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as margin for the purchase or sale of additional positions in the same or related commodities.

5.    The Partnership will not utilize borrowings except short-term borrowings if the Partnership takes delivery of any cash commodities.

6.    The Advisor may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership. The term “spread” or “straddle” describes a commodity futures trading strategy including the simultaneous holding of futures contracts on the same commodity but involving different delivery dates or markets and in which the trader expects to earn a profit from a widening or narrowing of the difference between the prices of the two contracts.

7.    The Partnership will not permit, and the Advisor will not engage in, the churning of its commodity trading accounts. The term “churning” refers to the practice of entering and exiting trades with a frequency unwarranted by legitimate efforts to profit from the trades, driven by the desire to generate commission income.

The program traded by the Advisor on behalf of the Partnership is a variation of the program traded by the SECOR Alpha Master Fund L.P. (the “Program”) which is described in Appendix A.
