Not applicable.
| Item 30. | Indemnification |
Article IV of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust of Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, a Delaware business trust (incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit (a) hereto), provides for indemnification of the Trustees and officers of the Trust, subject to certain limitations.
The Management Agreements provide that the applicable Investment Adviser will not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by a Fund, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of the Investment Adviser or from reckless disregard by the Investment Adviser of its obligations and duties under the Management Agreements. The Management Agreements are incorporated herein by reference as Exhibits (d)(1) and (d)(5).
Section 9 of the Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement between the Registrant and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit (e)(1)) and Section 7 of the Amended and Restated Transfer Agency Agreement between the Registrant and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (incorporated herein by reference as Exhibit (h)(1)) provide that the Registrant will indemnify Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC against certain liabilities.
Mutual fund and Trustees and officers liability policies purchased jointly by the Registrant and Goldman Sachs Trust insure such persons and their respective trustees, partners, officers and employees, subject to the policies’ coverage limits and exclusions and varying deductibles, against loss resulting from claims by reason of any act, error, omission, misstatement, misleading statement, neglect or breach of duty.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is therefore unenforceable.
| Item 31. | Business and Other Connections of Investment Adviser. |
Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (“GSAM LP”) and Goldman Sachs Asset Management International (“GSAMI”) are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. and serve as investment advisers to the Registrant. GSAM LP and GSAMI are engaged in the investment advisory business. GSAM LP and GSAMI are part of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., a public company that is a bank holding company, financial holding company and a world-wide, full-service financial services organization. The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. is the general partner and principal owner of GSAM. Information about the officers and partners of GSAM, and officers and directors of GSAMI, is included in their Forms ADV filed with the Commission (registration numbers 801-37591 and 801-38157, respectively) and is incorporated herein by reference.
| Item 32. | Principal Underwriters. |
(a) Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC or an affiliate or a division thereof currently serves as distributor for shares of Goldman Sachs Trust, Goldman Sachs Variable Insurance Trust, Goldman Sachs Trust II, and Goldman Sachs Real Estate Diversified Income Fund. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, or a division thereof currently serves as administrator and distributor of the units or shares of The Commerce Funds.
(b) Set forth below is certain information pertaining to the Managing Directors of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, the Registrant’s principal underwriter, who are members of The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.’s Management Committee. None of the members of the management committee holds a position or office with the Registrant.
