        In this example, the performance fee of the Private Dividend Yield Trust (Wholesale Trust) is 15% of the amount by which its
        performance (before tax but including imputation credits) exceeds the hurdle rate of return. In year one, the Wholesale Trust
        outperforms the hurdle rate by 2% accruing a performance fee which is then paid at the end of the performance period and a new high-
        water mark set.

        In year two, the Wholesale Trust underperforms the hurdle rate and consequently no performance fee is accrued. Any underperformance
        is carried forward and must be recovered before any future performance fee is accrued. This is illustrated in year three, when the
        Wholesale Trust returns more than the hurdle rate and the year two underperformance is recovered. As the outperformance in year
        three exceeds the underperformance from year two, a performance fee is accrued in year three. However, no performance fee is paid at
        the end of year three as the Wholesale Trust is below the last high-water mark (set in year one).

        The performance fee accrued in year three is not paid until the end of year four, when the Wholesale Trust exceeds the high-water mark.
        A new high-water mark is set at the end of year four.
