NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

The Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund (formerly, the Harbor Strategic Growth Fund) (the “Strategic Growth Fund” or the “Fund”) is a series of Manager Directed Portfolios (formerly, The Roxbury Funds) (the “Trust”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on April 4, 2006. The Fund is an open-end investment management company and is a diversified series of the Trust. The investment objective of the Fund is long-term growth of capital. The fund offers 3 classes of shares to investors: the Institutional, Investor, and Retirement classes. The Administrative class was collapsed into the Institutional class prior to conversion and shares were issued based upon the Institutional Shares’ net asset value per share. Each class of shares differs principally in its respective distribution or shareholder servicing expenses. Each class of shares has identical rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except for class-specific expenses and exclusive rights to vote on matters affecting only individual classes.

The Harbor Strategic Growth Fund (or the “Predecessor Fund”) is the successor in interest and has the same investment objective that was included as a series of another investment company, Harbor Funds, and that was advised by Harbor Capital and Sub-Advised by Mar Vista Investment Partners. On July 1, 2022, the shareholders of the Predecessor Fund approved the tax-free reorganization of the Predecessor Fund with and into the Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund, and effective as of the close of business on July 22, 2022, the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund were transferred to the Trust in exchange for shares of the Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund. For financial reporting purposes, assets received and shares issued by Mar Vista were recorded at fair value; however, the cost basis of the investments received from the Predecessor Fund was carried forward to align ongoing reporting of Mar Vista’s realized and unrealized gains and losses with amounts distributable to shareholders for tax purposes. Costs incurred by the Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund, in connection with the reorganization were paid by the Adviser. The fiscal year end of the Predecessor Fund was October 31, which remained the same. Operations prior to July 22, 2022 were that of the Predecessor Fund. The net assets were $73,590,993, including $26,342,178 of net unrealized appreciation, $56,484 of undistributed net investment income, and $13,509,548 of undistributed net realized gain and shares outstanding were 3,021,636, all of which were transferred into the Trust at NAV at the close of business on July 22, 2022.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund. These policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). 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” including FASB Accounting Standard Update ASU 2013-08.

	A.	Security Valuation: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value, as described in Note 3.

	B.	Federal Income Taxes: It is the Fund’s policy to continue to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provisions are required.

		The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions, and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The tax return for the Fund for the current fiscal period is open for examination. The Fund identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and the state of Delaware. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense on the Statements of Operations. Management of the Fund are required to determine whether a tax position taken by the Fund is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the applicable taxing authority. Based on its analysis, Management has concluded that the Fund does not have any unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions that would require a provision for income tax. Accordingly, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties for the six months ended April 30, 2024.

	C.	Securities Transactions, Income and Distributions: Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the Fund’s understanding of the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

		The Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income, if any, and net realized capital gains, if any, annually. Distributions from net realized gains for book purposes may include short-term capital gains. All short-term capital gains are included in ordinary income for tax purposes. The amount of dividends and distributions to shareholders from net investment income and net realized capital gains is determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which differ from GAAP. To the extent these book/tax differences are permanent, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax treatment.

		Investment income, expenses (other than those specific to the class of shares), and realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments are allocated to the separate classes of the Fund’s shares based upon their relative net assets on the date income is earned or expensed and realized and unrealized gains and losses are incurred.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

		The Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to it, such as investment advisory, custody and transfer agent fees. Expenses that are not attributable to the Fund are typically allocated among the funds in the Trust proportionately based on allocation methods approved by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”). Common expenses of the Trust are typically allocated among the funds in the Trust based on a fund’s respective net assets, or by other equitable means.

	D.	Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

	E.	Reclassification of Capital Accounts: GAAP requires that certain components of net assets relating to permanent differences be reclassified between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.

	F.	Events Subsequent to the Period End: In preparing the financial statements as of April 30, 2024, management considered the impact of subsequent events for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements and concluded that no additional disclosures are necessary.

NOTE 3 – SECURITIES VALUATION

The Fund has adopted authoritative fair value accounting standards which establish an authoritative definition of fair value and set out a hierarchy for measuring fair value. These standards require additional disclosures about the various inputs and valuation techniques used to develop the measurements of fair value, a discussion of changes in valuation techniques and related inputs during the period, and expanded disclosure of valuation levels for major security types. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

	Level 1 –	Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or 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.

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

Following is a description of the valuation techniques applied to the Fund’s major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Equity Securities: Equity securities, including common stocks, preferred stocks, foreign-issued common stocks, exchange-traded funds, closed-end mutual funds and real estate investment trusts (REITs), that are primarily traded on a national securities exchange shall be valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded on the day of valuation or, if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Securities primarily traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System for which market quotations are readily available shall be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If the NOCP is not available, such securities shall be valued at the last sale price on the day of valuation, or if there has been no sale on such day, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Over-the-counter securities that are not traded on a listed exchange are valued at the last sale price in the over-the-counter market. Over-the-counter securities which are not traded in the NASDAQ Global Market System shall be valued at the mean between the bid and asked prices. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Registered Investment Companies: Investments in registered investment companies (e.g., mutual funds) are generally priced at the ending NAV provided by the applicable registered investment company’s service agent and will be classified in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Short-Term Debt Securities: Debt securities, including short-term debt instruments having a maturity of less than 60 days, are valued at the evaluated mean price supplied by an approved pricing service. Pricing services may use various valuation methodologies including matrix pricing and other analytical pricing models as well as market transactions and dealer quotations. In the absence of prices from a pricing service, the securities will be priced in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Board. Short-term securities are generally classified in Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair market hierarchy depending on the inputs used and market activity levels for specific securities.

In the absence of prices from a pricing service or in the event that market quotations are not readily available, fair value will be determined under the Fund’s valuation procedures adopted pursuant to Rule 2a-5. Pursuant to those procedures, the Board has appointed the Advisor as the Fund’s valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to perform all fair valuations of the Fund’s portfolio investments, subject to the Board’s oversight. As the Valuation Designee, the Advisor has established procedures for its fair valuation of the Fund’s portfolio investments. These procedures address, among other things, determining when market quotations are not readily available or reliable and the methodologies to be used for determining the fair value of investments, as well as the use and oversight of third-party pricing services for fair valuation.

Depending on the relative significance of the valuation inputs, fair valued securities may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 4 – INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

For the six months ended April 30, 2024, Mar Vista Investment Partners, (the “Advisor”) provided the Fund with investment management services under an Investment Advisory Agreement. The Advisor furnishes all investment advice, office space, and facilities, and provides most of the personnel needed by the Fund. As compensation for its services, the Advisor is entitled to a monthly fee at an annual rate of 0.60% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Strategic Growth Fund incurred $184,497 in advisory fees. There were Advisory fees payable at April 30, 2024 in the amount of $1,480.

The Fund is responsible for its own operating expenses. The Advisor has contractually agreed to waive a portion of its fees and reimburse certain expenses for the Fund to ensure that the total annual fund operating expenses excluding front-end or contingent deferred loads, Rule 12b-1 plan fees, shareholder servicing plan fees, taxes, leverage, interest, brokerage commissions and other transactional expenses, expenses in connection with a merger or reorganization, dividends or interest on short positions, acquired fund fees and expenses or extraordinary expenses (collectively, “Excludable Expenses”) do not exceed the following amounts of the average daily net assets for each class of shares:

	Institutional Shares	0.71%
	Investor Shares	1.07%
	Retirement Shares	0.63%

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Advisor reduced its fees in the amount of $167,165 for the Fund. The waivers and reimbursements will be recoupable through February 28, 2025 unless terminated sooner by mutual agreement of the Board and the Advisor. As of April 30, 2024, the fund had no expense reimbursement receivable amount due from the Advisor.

The Advisor may request recoupment of previously waived fees and paid expenses in any subsequent month dating back to July 25, 2022, for the Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund, if the aggregate amount actually paid by the Fund toward the operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) will not cause the Fund to exceed the lesser of: (1) the expense limitation in place at the time of the management fee reduction and expense payment; or (2) the expense limitation in place at the time of the reimbursement. Any such reimbursement is also contingent upon Board of Trustees review and approval at the time the reimbursement is made. Such reimbursement may not be paid prior to the Fund’s payment of current ordinary operating expenses. Cumulative expenses subject to recapture pursuant to the aforementioned conditions expire as follows:

	Amount	Expiration
Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund	$ 92,451	10/31/2025
	311,525	10/31/2026

Certain officers of the Fund are employees of the Administrator and are not paid any fees by the Fund for serving in such capacities.

NOTE 5 – DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT AND PLAN

The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 (the “Plan”). The Plan permits the Fund to pay for distribution and related expenses at an annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund’s Investor Shares and Administrative Shares. The expenses covered by the Plan may include costs in connection with the promotion and distribution of shares and the provision of personal services to shareholders, including, but not necessarily limited to, advertising, compensation to underwriters, dealers and selling personnel, the printing and mailing of prospectuses to other than current Fund shareholders, and the printing and mailing of sales literature. Payments made pursuant to the Plan will represent compensation for distribution and service activities, not reimbursements for specific expenses incurred. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Strategic Growth Fund incurred distribution expenses of $1,694 on its Investor Shares.

NOTE 6 – SHAREHOLDER SERVICING FEE

The Fund has adopted a shareholder servicing plan (the “Plan”) on behalf of the Investor and Institutional Share classes on May 17, 2022 with an effective date of July 22, 2022. Under the Plan, the Investor and Institutional Share Classes are authorized to pay an annual shareholder servicing fee of up to 0.10% of each class’s average daily net assets. This fee is used to finance certain activities related to servicing and maintaining shareholder accounts. Payments made under the Plan may not be used to pay for any services in connection with the distribution and sale of the Investor and Institutional Shares.

Payments to the Advisor under the Plan may reimburse the Advisor for payments it makes to selected brokers, dealers and administrators which have entered into service agreements with the Advisor for services provided to Investor and Institutional Class shareholders of the Fund. The services provided by such intermediaries are primarily designed to assist Investor and Institutional Class shareholders of the Fund and include the furnishing of office space and equipment, telephone facilities, personnel, and assistance to the Fund in servicing such shareholders. Services provided by such intermediaries also include the provision of support services to the Fund and include establishing and maintaining shareholders’ accounts and record processing, purchase and redemption transactions, answering routine client inquiries regarding the Fund, and providing such other personal services to shareholders as the Fund may reasonably request. For the six months ended April 30, 2024, the Fund incurred, under the Agreement, shareholder servicing fees as follows:

NOTE 9 – SECURITIES LENDING

The Fund participates in securities lending arrangements whereby it lends certain of its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and financial institutions (not with individuals) in order to receive additional income and increase the rate of return of its portfolio. U.S. Bank, N.A. serves as the Fund’s securities lending agent.

U.S. Bank, N.A. oversees the securities lending process, which includes the screening, selection and ongoing review of borrowers, monitoring the availability of securities, negotiating rebates, daily marking to market of loans, monitoring and maintaining cash collateral levels, processing securities movements and reinvesting cash collateral as directed by the Adviser.

The Fund may lend securities pursuant to agreements that require the loans to be secured by collateral consisting of cash, securities of the U.S. Government or it agencies, or any combination of cash and such securities. At that time of loans, the collateral value should at least be equal to 102% of domestic securities and 105% of foreign securities. The value of loaned securities will then be marked-to-market daily and the collateral will be continuously secured by collateral equal to 100% of the market value of the loaned securities. Such loans will not be made if, as a result, the aggregate amount of all outstanding securities loans for the Fund exceeds one-third of the value of the Fund’s total assets taken at fair market value. The Fund will earn interest on the investment of the cash collateral in U.S. Government securities, short-term money market instruments or such other approved vehicle. However, the Fund will normally pay lending fees to such broker-dealers and related expenses from the interest earned on invested collateral. There may be risks of delay in receiving additional collateral or risks of delay in recovery of the securities and even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. However, loans are made only to borrowers deemed by the adviser to be of good standing and when, in the judgment of the adviser, the consideration that can be earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant risk. Either party, upon reasonable notice to the other party, may terminate the loan.

As of April 30, 2024, the Fund had loaned securities that were collateralized by cash. The cash collateral received was invested in securities as listed in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments.

NOTE 10 – PRINCIPAL RISKS

The following is a list of certain risks that may apply to your investment in the Fund. Further information about investment risks is available in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.

General Market Risk; Recent Market Events: The market value of a security may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry, sector of the economy or the market as a whole. U.S. and international markets have experienced volatility in recent months and years due to a number of economic, political and global macro factors, including rising inflation, the war between Russia and Ukraine and the impact of the coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic. While U.S. and global economies are recovering from the effects of COVID-19, labor shortages and the inability to meet consumer demand have restricted growth. Uncertainties regarding the level of central banks’ interest rate increases, political events, the Russia-Ukraine conflict, trade tensions and the possibility of a national or global recession have also contributed to market volatility.

Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, which increases the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers in a different country or region. Continuing market volatility because of recent market conditions or other events may have adverse effects on the Fund’s returns. The Adviser will monitor developments and seek to manage the Fund in a manner consistent with achieving the Fund’s investment objective, but there can be no assurance that they will be successful in doing so.

Growth-Style Investing Risk: An investment in a growth-oriented fund may be more volatile than the rest of the U.S. market as a whole. If the investment adviser’s assessment of a company’s prospects for earnings growth or how other investors will value the

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

company’s earnings growth is incorrect, the stock may fail to reach the value that the adviser has placed on it. Growth stock prices tend to fluctuate more dramatically than the overall stock market.

Foreign Security Risk: Foreign investments involve risks relating to political, economic, regulatory, or social instability, military action or unrest, or diplomatic developments and may be affected by actions of foreign governments adverse to the interest of U.S. investors.

IPO Risk: The Fund may purchase securities of companies engaged in initial public offerings (“IPOs”). The price of securities purchased in IPOs can be very volatile. The Fund’s investments in IPO shares may include the securities of “unseasoned” companies (companies with less than three years of continuous operations), which present risks considerably greater than common stocks of more established companies. These companies may be involved in new and evolving businesses and may be vulnerable to competition and changes in technology, markets and economic conditions. They may be more dependent on key managers and third parties and may have limited product lines. The effect of IPO investments on a Fund’s performance depends on a variety of factors, including the number of IPOs the Fund invests in relative to the size of the Fund, and whether and to what extent a security purchased in an IPO appreciates or depreciates in value. When the Fund’s asset base is small, a significant portion of the Fund’s performance could be attributable to investments in IPOs because such investments would have a magnified impact on the Fund. As the Fund’s asset grow, the effect of the Fund’s investments in IPOs on the Fund’s performance probably will decline, which could reduce the Fund’s performance.

Liquidity Risk: Certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that the seller would like. While the markets in securities of small companies have grown rapidly in recent years, such securities may trade less frequently and in smaller volumes than more widely held securities. The values of these securities may fluctuate more sharply than those of other securities, and the Fund may experience some difficulty in establishing or closing out positions in these securities at prevailing market prices. There may be less publicly available information about the issuers of these securities or less market interest in such securities than in the case of larger companies, and it may take a longer period of time for the prices of such securities to reflect the full value of their issuers’ underlying earnings potential or assets.

Mutual Fund and ETF Trading Risk: The Fund may invest in other mutual funds that are either open-end or closed-end investment companies as well as Exchange Traded Funds (“ETFs”). ETFs are investment companies that are bought and sold on a national securities exchange. Unlike mutual funds, ETFs do not necessarily trade at the net asset values of their underlying securities, which means an ETF could potentially trade above or below the value of the underlying portfolios. Additionally, because ETFs trade like

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

stocks on exchanges, they are subject to trading and commission costs unlike mutual funds. Also, both mutual funds and ETFs have management fees that are part of its costs, and the Fund will indirectly bear their proportionate share of the costs.

NOTE 11 – GUARANTEES AND INDEMNIFICATIONS

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.

NOTE 12 – CONTROL OWNERSHIP

The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act. As of April 30, 2024, U.S. Bank Global Custody held 30.4% of the outstanding shares of the Fund and Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Owned 28.8% of the outstanding shares of the fund. The Fund has no knowledge as to whether all or any portion of the shares owned of record by U.S. Bank Global Custody or Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., are also beneficially owned.

NOTE 13 – TAILORED SHAREHOLDER REPORTS

In October 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) adopted a final rule relating to Tailored Shareholder Reports for Mutual Funds and Exchange-Traded Funds; Fee Information in Investment Company Advertisements. The rule and form amendments will, among other things, require the Fund to transmit concise and visually engaging shareholder reports that highlight key information. The amendments will require that funds tag information in a structured data format and that certain more in-depth information be made available online and available for delivery free of charge to investors on request. The amendments became effective January 24, 2023. There is an 18-month transition period after the effective date of the amendment.

EXPENSE EXAMPLE

April 30, 2024 (Unaudited)

As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs including sales charges (loads) and redemption fees, if applicable; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1 fees); and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period indicated and held for the entire period from November 1, 2023, to April 30, 2024, for the Institutional, Investor, and Retirement Shares.

Actual Expenses

The information in the table under the heading “Actual” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in these columns together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the row entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. There are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts, such as Individual Retirement Accounts (generally, a $15 fee is charged to the account annually) that would increase the amount of expenses paid on your account. The example below does not include portfolio trading commissions and related expenses and other extraordinary expenses as determined under generally accepted accounting principles.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The information in the table under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As noted above, there are some account fees that are charged to certain types of accounts that would increase the amount of expense paid on your account.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the information under the heading “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses)” is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

STATEMENT REGARDING LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT PROGRAM

(Unaudited)

In accordance with Rule 22e-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Fund, a series of Manager Directed Portfolios (the “Trust”), has adopted and implemented a liquidity risk management program tailored specifically to the Fund (the “Program”). The Program seeks to promote effective liquidity risk management for the Fund and to protect Fund shareholders from dilution of their interests. The Board has designated the Fund’s investment adviser to serve as the administrator of the Program (the “Program Administrator”). Personnel of the Fund’s investment adviser conduct the day-to-day operation of the Program pursuant to policies and procedures administered by the Program Administrator. The Program Administrator is required to provide a written annual report to the Board and the chief compliance officer of the Trust regarding the adequacy and effectiveness of the Program and any material changes to the Program.

Under the Program, the Program Administrator manages the Fund’s liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Fund could not meet shareholder redemption requests without significant dilution of remaining shareholders’ interests in the Fund. The Program assesses liquidity risk under both normal and reasonably foreseeable stressed market conditions. This risk is managed by monitoring the degree of liquidity of the Fund’s investments, limiting the amount of the Fund’s illiquid investments, and utilizing various risk management tools and facilities available to the Fund for meeting shareholder redemptions, among other means. The Program Administrator’s process of determining the degree of liquidity of the Fund’s investments is supported by one or more third-party liquidity assessment vendors.

On May 14, 2024, the Board reviewed the Program Administrator’s assessment of the operation and effectiveness of the Program for the period January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023 (the “Report”) The Report noted that there were no breaches of the Fund’s restriction on holding illiquid investments exceeding 15% of its net assets during the review period. The Report confirmed that the Fund’s investment strategy was appropriate for an open-end management investment company. The Report also indicated that no material changes had been made to the Program during the review period.

The Program Administrator determined that the Fund is reasonably likely to be able to meet redemption requests without adversely affecting non-redeeming Fund shareholders through significant dilution. The Program Administrator concluded that the during the review period, the Program was adequately designed and effectively operating to monitor the liquidity risk to the Fund, taking into account the size of the Fund, the type of business conducted, and other relevant factors.

APPROVAL OF THE MAR VISTA STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

The Board of Trustees (the “Board” or “Trustees”) of Manager Directed Portfolios (the “Trust”) met on November 13, 2023 to consider the renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Trust, on behalf of the Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund (the “Fund”), a series of the Trust, and the Fund’s investment adviser, Mar Vista Investment Partners, LLC (“Mar Vista” or the “Adviser”). The Trustees, all of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Independent Trustees”), had previously met at a special meeting held on October 17, 2023 to discuss the renewal of the Advisory Agreement. Prior to these meetings, the Trustees requested and received materials to assist them in considering the continuation of the Advisory Agreement. The materials provided contained information with respect to the factors enumerated below, including a copy of the Advisory Agreement, a memorandum prepared by counsel to the Independent Trustees discussing factors relevant to the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, comparative performance information, Mar Vista’s Form ADV Part 1A, brochure and brochure supplements, due diligence materials provided by Mar Vista, including information regarding Mar Vista’s compliance program, personnel and financial condition, profitability information, and other pertinent information. The Board also reviewed the advisory fee payable by the Fund under the Advisory Agreement, the expense limitation agreement between Mar Vista and the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, and comparative fee and expense information as reported by a third-party analytics firm.

The Trustees met with the officers of the Trust and legal counsel to discuss the information provided and also met in executive session with legal counsel to the Independent Trustees to review their duties in considering the Advisory Agreement and the information provided. The Trustees noted that they had met in person with representatives of Mar Vista earlier in the year to discuss Mar Vista’s investment strategy for the Fund, the Fund’s performance, updates about the Adviser’s business and personnel and other matters. The Board took into account information reviewed periodically throughout the year regarding the services provided by the Adviser, the performance of the Fund, brokerage and trading services, Fund expenses, asset flows, compliance matters and other information deemed relevant.

Based on their evaluation of the information provided as part of the October and November meetings, as well as information provided over the course of the year, the Trustees approved the continuation of the Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term. Below is a summary of the material factors considered by the Board and the conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s approval of the Advisory Agreement.

1.	NATURE, EXTENT AND QUALITY OF SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE FUND

The Trustees considered the nature, extent and quality of services provided by the Adviser in the management of the Fund, including portfolio management, research, trading and compliance monitoring, as well as the qualifications and experience of

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

APPROVAL OF THE MAR VISTA STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

personnel at the Adviser who are involved in the day-to-day activities of the Fund. The Board considered the Adviser’s compliance program and past reports from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) regarding the CCO’s review of the Adviser’s compliance program. The Board also considered its previous experience with the Adviser providing investment management services to the Fund. The Trustees considered the information provided by the Adviser in response to the due diligence questionnaire and as part of the presentation by the Adviser earlier in the year. The Trustees concluded that the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Fund by the Adviser were appropriate and that the Fund was likely to continue to benefit from the services provided by the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement.

2.	INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND

The Trustees discussed the performance of the Fund for the one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods ended June 30, 2023 on an absolute basis and in comparison to (1) the Fund’s primary benchmark index, (2) the Morningstar large growth peer group, and (3) a peer group of funds constructed using Morningstar, Inc. data and presented by Barrington Partners, an independent third-party analytics firm (the “Barrington Cohort”).

The Trustees noted that the Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, for all periods. The Board considered Mar Vista’s commentary regarding the Fund’s performance versus its benchmark and the differences in holdings between the benchmark and the Fund. The Board also considered that the Fund outperformed its Morningstar peer group average for the three-year period and underperformed the peer group average for the one-year, five-year and ten-year periods. The Trustees noted that the Fund outperformed its Barrington Cohort average for the one-year and ten-year periods and underperformed the cohort for the three-year and five-year periods. The Trustees reviewed the Fund’s performance relative to Mar Vista’s composites of other separately managed accounts managed with investment strategies similar to the Fund but did not consider the composite performance to be a material factor.

The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s performance was satisfactory and that the Fund and its shareholders were likely to benefit from the Adviser’s continued management.

3.	ADVISORY FEES AND EXPENSES

The Trustees considered Mar Vista’s advisory fee rate, related statistical information and the cost structure of the Fund relative to its Barrington Cohort fee and expense comparisons. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s contractual management fee of 0.60% was lower than the Barrington Cohort average. The Trustees noted that the total net expense ratio for the Institutional Shares was lower than the Barrington Cohort average and the Morningstar category average. The Trustees considered the fee waivers and expense reimbursements previously provided by Mar Vista and Mar Vista’s commitment to renew the Fund’s expense limitation agreement.

Mar Vista Strategic Growth Fund

APPROVAL OF THE MAR VISTA STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (Continued)

The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s expenses and the management fee paid to Mar Vista were fair and reasonable in light of the comparative expense and management fee information and the quality of the services provided to the Fund by Mar Vista.

4.	COSTS OF SERVICES PROVIDED AND PROFITS REALIZED BY THE ADVISER

The Trustees considered Mar Vista’s financial statements and a profitability analysis prepared by Mar Vista based on the fees payable under the Advisory Agreement. The Trustees did not consider Mar Vista’s level of profitability from its relationship with the Fund to be a material factor because the Fund was not profitable to Mar Vista during the period presented.

5.	ECONOMIES OF SCALE

The Trustees compared the Fund’s expenses relative to its cohort and Morningstar peer group and considered potential economies of scale. The Trustees noted that the Fund’s management fee structure did not contain any breakpoint reductions as the Fund’s assets grow in size but considered that Mar Vista has been waiving fees or reimbursing expenses since the Fund reorganized into a series of the Trust in 2022. The Trustees concluded that the Fund’s current fee structure represents an appropriate sharing of economies of scale with shareholders at the Fund’s current asset level and in light of the expense limitation agreement that is in place.

6.	BENEFITS DERIVED FROM THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FUND

The Trustees considered the direct and indirect benefits that could be realized by Mar Vista from its association with the Fund. The Trustees concluded that other benefits Mar Vista may receive as a result of its relationship with the Fund, such as soft dollar research, appear to be reasonable.

CONCLUSION

In considering the renewal of the Advisory Agreement, the Trustees did not identify any one factor as all important but rather considered these factors collectively in light of the Fund’s surrounding circumstances. Based on this review, the Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, approved the renewal of the Advisory Agreement for an additional one-year term as being in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders.
