Notes to Financial Statements

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

1. Organization

Destra Multi-Alternative Fund (“the Fund”) was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on June 3, 2011, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the “1940 Act”), and is a non-diversified, exchange-listed closed-end management investment company.

The Fund changed its fiscal year end to March 31, effective March 1, 2022. The Fund’s shares began trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on January 13, 2022 under NYSE ticker symbol “DMA.” To facilitate the listing of the Fund’s shares on the NYSE, effective January 5, 2022, the Fund redesignated its Class A, Class C and Class T shares as Class I shares and eliminated all share class designations. Consequently, the Fund’s shares are now referred to as shares of beneficial interest or common shares (the “Common Shares”).

The Fund’s investment adviser is Destra Capital Advisors LLC (the “Adviser”), the Fund’s sub-adviser is Validus Growth Investors, LLC, doing business as Validex Global Investing, (“Validex” or the “Sub-Adviser” and together with the Adviser are referred to herein as the “Advisers”). See Note 3 for additional information regarding Validex, as the Fund’s Sub-Adviser.

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek returns from capital appreciation and income with an emphasis on income generation. The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in the income-producing securities of real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and alternative investment funds, as well as common stocks and structured notes, notes, bonds and asset-backed securities.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 “Financial Services — Investment Companies”.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash — Cash and cash equivalents include U.S. dollar deposits at bank accounts at amounts which may exceed insured limits. The Fund is subject to risk to the extent that the institutions may be unable to fulfill their obligations. As of September 30, 2024, the Fund had no restricted cash.

Distributions to Shareholders — Prior to July 1, 2023, distributions from investment income were declared and paid monthly. Beginning with the start of the Fund’s second fiscal quarter on July 1, 2023 distributions from investment income will only be paid annually. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and paid annually. The character of income and gains to be distributed is determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.

Security Valuation — The Fund records investments at fair value. Securities listed on an exchange are valued at the last reported sale price at the close of the regular trading session of the exchange on the business day the value is being determined, or in the case of securities listed on NASDAQ, at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In the absence of a sale, such securities shall be valued at the mean of the closing bid and asked prices on the day of valuation. Short-term investments that mature in 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost, provided such valuations represent fair value.

When price quotations for certain securities are not readily available, or if the available quotations are not believed to be reflective of market value by the Adviser, those securities will be valued at “fair value” as determined in good faith by a Valuation Committee using the Valuation Procedures. There can be no assurance that the Fund could purchase or sell a portfolio security at the price used to calculate the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”).

The Board of Trustees of the Fund (“the Board”) has approved valuation procedures for the Fund (the “Valuation Procedures”) which are used for determining the fair value of any Fund investments for which a market quotation is not readily available. The valuation of each of the Fund’s investments is performed in accordance with the principles found in Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act and in conjunction with FASB’s Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”).The Board has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee of the Fund. As valuation designee, the Adviser performs the fair value determination relating to any and all Fund investments, subject to the conditions and oversight requirements described in the Valuation Procedures. In furtherance of its duties as valuation designee, the Adviser has formed a valuation committee (the “Valuation Committee”), to perform fair value determinations and oversee the day-to-day functions related to the fair valuation of the Fund’s investments. The Valuation Committee may consult with representatives from the Fund’s outside legal counsel or other third-party consultants in their discussions and deliberations.

Destra Multi-Alternative Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

Valuation Procedures may be used to value a substantial portion of the assets of the Fund. The Fund may use the fair value of a security to calculate its NAV when, for example, (1) a portfolio security is not traded in a public market or the principal market in which the security trades is closed, (2) trading in a portfolio security is suspended and not resumed prior to the normal market close, (3) a portfolio security is not traded in significant volume for a substantial period, or (4) the Adviser determines that the quotation or price for a portfolio security provided by a broker-dealer or independent pricing service is inaccurate. The “fair value” of securities may be difficult to determine and thus judgment plays a greater role in the valuation process. The fair valuation methodology may include or consider the following guidelines, as appropriate: (1) evaluation of all relevant factors, including but not limited to, pricing history, current market level, supply and demand of the respective security; (2) comparison to the values and current pricing of securities that have comparable characteristics; (3) knowledge of historical market information with respect to the security; (4) other factors relevant to the security which would include, but would not be limited to, duration, yield, fundamental analytical data, the Treasury yield curve, and credit quality. Calls with the management teams of these securities are completed to gain further insight that might not be as evident through the reading of published reports or filings.

Often, significant back-testing or historical data analysis is employed to gain increased, tangible perspective into ways to enhance the accuracy of either existing, or potentially new fair valuation approaches. This also ensures that recent enhancements or additional methodologies are leading to more accurate valuations.

Ongoing “logic checks” and evaluations of underlying portfolios are used to identify potential disconnects between current methodologies and expected results.

The values assigned to fair valued investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, since such amounts depend on future developments inherent in long-term investments. Changes in the fair valuation of portfolio securities may be less frequent and of greater magnitude than changes in the price of portfolio securities valued at their last sale price, by an independent pricing service, or based on market quotations. Imprecision in estimating fair value can also impact the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation recorded for a particular portfolio security and differences in the assumptions used could result in a different determination of fair value, and those differences could be material.

The Fund invests in some securities which are not traded and the Fair Valuation Committee has established a methodology for the fair valuation of each type of security. Non-listed REITs that are in the public offering period (or start-up phase) are valued at cost according to the Fair Valuation Committee’s fair valuation methodology unless the REIT issues an updated valuation. The Fund generally purchases REITs at NAV or without a commission. However, startup REITs amortize a significant portion of their start-up costs and therefore, potentially carry additional risks that may impact valuation should the REIT be unable to raise sufficient capital and execute their business plan. As such, start-up REITs pose a greater risk than seasoned REITs because if they encounter going concern issues, they may see significant deviation in value from the fair value, cost basis approach as represented. Non-listed REITs that are in their offering period are generally categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Once a REIT closes to new investors, Management values the security based on the movement of an appropriate market index or a similar security that is publicly traded until the REIT issues an updated market valuation. Non-listed REITs that have closed to new investors are categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, due to the significance of the effect of the application of the movement of the market index on the overall fair valuation of the REIT. Other non-traded private investments are monitored for any independent audits of the investment or impairments reported on the potential value of the investment. Certain investments in preferred stocks or private companies are generally categorized as a Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Fund generally values investments in preferred stocks or private companies based on recent transactions and may initially value the investments at cost.

Valuation of Structured Notes — These instruments are notes where the principal and/or interest rate or value of the structured note is determined by reference to the performance of an underlying reference asset. The Fund primarily invests in structured notes that reference the performance of a basket of underlying equity securities. The interest and/or principal payments that may be made on a structured note may vary widely, depending on a variety of factors, including the volatility of the underlying reference asset. The performance results of structured notes will not replicate exactly the performance of the underlying reference asset that the notes seek to replicate due to transaction costs and other expenses. Issuers of structured notes can vary and may include corporations, banks, broker-dealers and limited purpose trusts or other vehicles. Structured notes may be exchange traded or traded OTC and privately negotiated. Structured notes are valued at cost which approximates fair value and monitored for impairment.

Valuation of Alternative Investment Funds — The Fund may invest in funds of open-end or closed-end investment companies (the “Alternative Investment Funds”). The Alternative Investment Funds value securities in their portfolios for which market quotations are readily available at their market values (generally the last reported sale price) and all other securities and assets at their fair value using the methods established by the board of directors of the Alternative Investment Funds. Open-end funds are valued at their NAV and closed-end funds that trade on an exchange are valued as described under security valuation.

Destra Multi-Alternative Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

For Alternative Investment Funds, including private real estate investment trusts, non-traded partnership funds, non-listed business development companies and hedge funds, that are themselves treated as investment companies under GAAP, the Fund follows the guidance in GAAP that allows, as practical expedient, the Fund to value such investments at their reported NAV per share (or if not unitized, at an equivalent percentage of the capital of the investee entity). Such investments typically provide an updated NAV or its equivalent on a quarterly basis. The Fair Valuation Committee meets frequently to discuss the fair valuation methodology and will adjust the value of a security if there is a public update to such valuation.

Non-listed business development companies provide quarterly fair value pricing which is used as an indicator of the valuation for the Fund. If the value significantly fluctuates, the Adviser will provide an updated price. If a significant event occurs that causes a large change in price, the Fair Valuation Committee will call a meeting to evaluate the fair value.

Hedge funds provide monthly fair value pricing which is used as an indicator of the valuation for the Fund. The Fund values the security based on the movement of an appropriate market index or a similar security that is publicly traded until the hedge fund issues an updated market valuation.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with an independent buyer in the principal market, or in the absence of a principal market the most advantageous market for the investment or liability. ASC 820-10 establishes three different categories for valuations. Level 1 valuations are those based upon quoted prices in active markets that the Fund has the ability to access. Level 2 valuations are those based upon quoted prices in inactive markets or based upon significant observable inputs (e.g., yield curves; benchmark interest rates; indices). Level 3 valuations are those based upon unobservable inputs (e.g., discounted cash flow analysis; non-market based methods used to determine fair valuation).

The Fund utilizes various methods to measure the fair value of its investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:

●

Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

●

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

●

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available; representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value of a security may fall into different levels (Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3) of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level within which the fair value measurement falls, in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant in its entirety to the fair value measurement.

Commitments and Contingencies — The Fund indemnifies the Fund’s officers and the Board for certain liabilities that might arise from their performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnifications. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

Exchange Traded Funds — The Fund may invest in exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). Most ETFs are a type of index fund bought and sold on a securities exchange. An ETF trades like common stock and represents a fixed (or managed) portfolio of securities designed to track the performance and dividend yield of a particular domestic or foreign market index. The Fund may purchase an ETF to gain exposure to a portion of the U.S. or a foreign market. The risks of owning an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities it is designed to track, although the lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in it being more volatile. Additionally, ETFs have fees and expenses that reduce their value.

Restricted securities — Restricted securities are securities that may be resold only upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer’s expense either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Board. The restricted securities may be valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, the fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board. The Alternative Investment Funds generally are restricted securities that are subject to substantial holding periods and are not traded in public markets, so that the Fund may not be able to resell some of its investments for extended periods, which may be several years.

Additional information on each restricted investment held by the Fund at September 30, 2024, is as follows:

Transferred at no cost as a result of a corporate action.

Options — The Fund may purchase put and call options on currencies or securities. A put option gives the purchaser the right to compel the writer of the option to purchase from the option holder an underlying currency or security or its equivalent at a specified price at any time during the option period. In contrast, a call option gives the purchaser the right to buy the underlying currency or security covered by the option or its equivalent from the writer of the option at the stated exercise price.

As a holder of a put option, the Fund will have the right to sell the currencies or securities underlying the option and as the holder of a call option, the Fund will have the right to purchase the currencies or securities underlying the option, in each case at their exercise price at any time prior to the option’s expiration date. The Fund may seek to terminate its option positions prior to their expiration by entering into closing transactions. The ability of the Fund to enter into a closing sale transaction depends on the existence of a liquid secondary market. There can be no assurance that a closing

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

purchase or sale transaction can be effected when the Fund so desires. The Fund may close out a position when writing options by purchasing an option on the same security with the same exercise price and expiration date as the option that it has previously written on the security. In such a case, the Fund will realize a profit or loss if the amount paid to purchase an option is less or more than the amount received from the sale of the option.

The hours of trading for options may not conform to the hours during which the underlying securities are traded. To the extent that the options markets close before the markets for the underlying securities, significant price and rate movements can take place in the underlying markets that cannot be reflected in the options markets. The purchase of options is a highly specialized activity which involves investment techniques and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The purchase of options involves the risk that the premium and transaction costs paid by the Fund in purchasing an option will be lost as a result of unanticipated movements in prices of the securities on which the option is based. Imperfect correlation between the options and securities markets may detract from the effectiveness of attempted hedging. Options transactions may result in significantly higher transaction costs and portfolio turnover for the Fund.

Security Transactions and Investment Income — Investment security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Cost is determined and gains and losses are based upon the specific identification method for both financial statement and federal income tax purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date and interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Purchase discounts and premiums on securities are accreted and amortized over the life of the respective securities.

Distributions received from investments in securities and private funds that represent a return of capital or capital gains are recorded as a reduction of cost of investment or as a realized gain, respectively. The calendar year-end amounts of ordinary income, capital gains, and return of capital included in distributions received from the Fund’s investments in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) are reported to the Fund after the end of the calendar year; accordingly, the Fund estimates these amounts for accounting purposes until the characterization of REIT distributions is reported to the Fund after the end of the calendar year. Estimates are based on the most recent REIT distribution information available.

Indemnification — The Fund indemnifies its officers and Trustees for certain liabilities that may arise from the performance of their duties to the Fund. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and warranties and which provide general indemnities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss due to these warranties and indemnities to be remote.

3. Investment Management and Other Agreements

The Fund has entered into an investment management agreement (the “Investment Management Agreement”) with the Adviser. Subject to the oversight of the Fund’s Board, the Adviser is responsible for managing the Fund’s business affairs and providing day-to-day administrative services to the Fund either directly or through others selected by it for the Fund.

Pursuant to the Investment Management Agreement dated January 13, 2022, the Adviser is entitled to a management fee, calculated and payable monthly in arrears, at an annual rate of 1.35%, based upon the Fund’s managed assets as of month-end (the “Management Fee”). “Managed Assets” means the total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to money borrowed for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund’s accrued liabilities (other than money borrowed for investment purposes). Prior to January 13, 2022, under the Fund’s prior investment management agreement, the Adviser was entitled to a management fee, calculated and payable monthly in arrears, at an annual rate of 1.35% of the Fund’s average daily net assets during such period. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Adviser earned a Management Fee of $786,794. As of the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Adviser was owed $108,312 in Management Fees, included in payables for Management Fee on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

The Fund and Adviser have entered into an investment sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) with the Sub-Adviser. Pursuant to the Sub-Advisory Agreement, dated January 13, 2022, the Adviser pays the Sub-Adviser a monthly sub-advisory fee (net of any waivers, reimbursement payments, supermarket fees and alliance fees waived, reimbursed or paid by the Adviser in respect of the Fund) with respect to the assets allocated to the Sub-Adviser (the “Sub-Advised Assets”) equal to 50% of the advisory fee paid to the Adviser for its services to the Fund with respect to the Sub-Advised Assets, equal to a percentage of the Sub-Advised Assets’ average daily managed assets. Prior to January 13, 2022, the Sub-Adviser received a sub-advisory fee at an annual rate equal to 50% of the net Management Fees received by the Adviser after any fee waivers and shared expenses between the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser, subject to a maximum of 0.675% of the Fund’s average daily net assets at month end.

Destra Multi-Alternative Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

Effective January 13, 2022, the Adviser and the Fund have entered into an expense limitation and reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Limitation Agreement”) under which the Adviser has agreed to reimburse and/or pay or absorb, on a quarterly basis, the “ordinary operating expenses” (as defined below) of the Fund to the extent that such expenses exceed 0.53% per annum of the Fund’s average daily net assets (the “Expense Limitation”). For the purposes of the Expense Limitation Agreement, “ordinary operating expenses” consist of all ordinary expenses of the Fund, including administration fees, transfer agent fees, organization and offering expenses, fees paid to the Fund’s trustees, administrative services expenses, and related costs associated with legal, regulatory compliance and investor relations, but excluding the following: (a) investment management fees, (b) portfolio transaction and other investment-related costs (including brokerage commissions, dealer and underwriter spreads, commitment fees on any leverage facilities, prime broker fees and expenses, and dividend expenses related to short sales), (c) interest expense and other financing costs, (d) taxes, (e) distribution fees and/or shareholder servicing fees, if any, (f) acquired fund fees and expenses and (g) extraordinary expenses. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Adviser waived Management Fees of $109,060.

Further, shareholders previously approved, subject to the Fund listing on the NYSE or other national securities exchange, a Secondary Market Support Services Agreement with Destra, whereby the Fund pays Destra a separate 0.10% fee, calculated and paid on Managed Assets, to provide services designed to communicate the investment strategy and investment objective of the Fund to the broader market. Effective March 1, 2022, Destra has voluntarily waived this fee. This voluntary waiver may be revised or terminated at any time without notice. This fee waiver is not subject to recoupment.

Any waiver or reimbursement by the Adviser under the Expense Limitation Agreement is subject to repayment by the Fund within three years from the date the Adviser waived any payment or reimbursed any expense, provided that the Fund is able to make the repayment without exceeding the expense limitation in place at the time of waiver or the current expense limitation and the repayment is approved by the Board. Unless terminated by the Board, the Expense Limitation Agreement will continue in effect until at least January 13, 2027. The Board may terminate this Expense Limitation Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Adviser.

The following amounts are subject to recapture by the Adviser by the following dates:

2/28/2025				3/31/2025				3/31/2026				3/31/2027
$	611,339			$	33,783			$	193,549			$	256,325

4. Investment Transactions

The cost of purchases and proceeds from the sale of securities, other than short-term securities, for the six months ended September 30, 2024, amounted to $31,476,934 and $27,941,795, respectively. The total securities sold short and covered amounted to $61,285 and $1,989,674, respectively.

5. Federal Tax Information

At September 30, 2024, the cost of securities on a tax basis and gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments and securities sold short for federal tax purposes were as follows:

Cost of investments	$	118,345,712
Gross unrealized appreciation		29,816,660
Gross unrealized depreciation		(25,378,630	)
Net unrealized appreciation(depreciation)	$	4,438,030

The difference between cost amounts for financial statement and federal income tax purposes is due primarily to timing differences in recognizing certain gains and losses in security transactions.

6. Credit Facility

On October 5, 2021, the Fund entered into a secured, revolving line of credit facility with Nexbank (the “Credit Facility”). Effective September 30, 2024, the Credit Agreement was extended for an additional year expiring on October 1, 2025. The Fund may borrow an amount up to the lesser of the Credit Facility maximum commitment financing of $15,000,000 or one-third of the value of its total assets less liabilities not represented by the payable to the Credit Facility. The interest rate on borrowings from the Credit Facility is equal to the 1-month U.S. Treasury rate plus 4.50% per annum, with a 4.75% floor. During the six months ended September 30, 2024, the average principal balance and weighted average interest rate was approximately $14,639,344 and 9.68% per annum, respectively, and the maximum outstanding balance of the Credit Facility was $15,000,000. At September 30, 2024, the principal balance outstanding was $12,000,000 at an

Destra Multi-Alternative Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)

September 30, 2024 (unaudited)

interest rate of 9.68% per annum. The Fund records loan origination and other expenses related to its debt obligations as debt issuance costs. These expenses are deferred and amortized over the life of the Credit Facility. Debt issuance costs are presented on the statement of assets and liabilities as a direct deduction from the debt liability. The Fund pays loan origination fees (aka: commitment fees) in connection with securing and renewing the Credit Facility. These fees are expensed over the corresponding term of the loan on a straight line basis and not inclusive of the expense limitation agreement. For the six months ended September 30, 2024, the Fund expensed $23,620 in loan origination fees and has a liability amount of $517 outstanding which is scheduled to amortize through October 2, 2024, the expiration date of the prior Credit Facility term.

Under the provisions of the 1940 Act, the Fund is permitted to issue senior securities, including debt securities and preferred stock, and borrow from banks or other financial institutions, provided that the Fund satisfies certain asset coverage requirements. With respect to senior securities representing indebtedness, such as the Credit Facility, the Fund is required to have asset coverage of at least 300%, as measured at the time of borrowing and calculated as the ratio of the Fund’s total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, over the aggregate amount of the Fund’s outstanding senior securities representing indebtedness. If the Fund’s asset coverage declines below 300%, the Fund would be prohibited under the 1940 Act from incurring additional debt or making certain distributions to its shareholders.

Please refer to the Fund’s Financial Highlights for summary of the Fund’s asset coverage with respect to senior securities.

The Destra Fund Complex (consisting of the Fund, the Destra Flaherty & Crumrine Preferred and Income Fund, the BlueBay Destra International Event-Driven Credit Fund, and the Destra Exchange-Traded Fund Trust, of which there is currently no active series) pays each Independent Trustee a retainer of $39,000 per year, and the Chairman of the Board a retainer of $46,000 per year for their services in this capacity.
