As used herein, the term “Account” refers to each and every account (cash, margin or otherwise) that has established in Client’s name, or in Client’s name together with others, or in which Client has a beneficial interest, now or in the future. The term refers, collectively and individually, to, its present and future affiliates, and their respective partners, officers, directors, employees and agents.

Both the New Account Agreement and any applicable Supplements are subject to approval. and Client hereby agree to the following with respect to any of Client’s Accounts with and all transactions with.

1. Ownership. Client represents that no one except the Client has a direct beneficial interest in Client’s Account unless such interest is revealed in the title of such Account or is otherwise disclosed to in writing and in any such case, Client has the interest indicated in such title. Client warrants it will inform of any changes in the information supplied to in connection with the establishment and maintenance of an Account for Client. Client agrees that all funds, securities and other property held for the account and the proceeds thereof shall be held for the Account in the manner indicated in the account title, with all the legal and equitable rights of every nature and kind, and subject to all the obligations and conditions, that such form of ownership imposes. As used herein, the term “securities and/or other property” shall include securities and other property currently in or in the future held, carried or maintained by, or in the possession or control of, in or for any of Client’s current or future Accounts, including any Account in which Client may have an interest, and regardless of the purpose for which the securities and other property are so held, carried, maintained, possessed or controlled.

2. Exchange or Market. Client’s Account and transactions effected and/or executed through the Account will be subject to and shall be in accordance with the rules and customs of any applicable national securities exchange, electronic communication network, national securities association, alternative trading system, contract market, derivatives transaction execution facility or other exchange or market (domestic or foreign) (each an “Exchange” and collectively “Exchanges”) and their respective clearing houses, as well as any applicable self-regulatory organization, if any, where the transactions are executed, or that otherwise apply to Client’s Account or transactions, and in conformity with applicable law and regulations of governmental authorities and future amendments or supplements thereto, and Client agrees to use the Accounts only in accordance with such rules, customs, laws and regulations. Client understands that the Exchanges have the right to break any executed transaction on various grounds, including if the executed transaction was, in their opinion, “clearly erroneous,” and will not be liable for such broken transactions.

3. General Lien; Delivery of Collateral. Client hereby grants a first priority perfected security interest in, and right of setoff against, all securities and other property, and the proceeds thereof, and all obligations, whether or not due, which are held, carried or maintained by or in the possession or control of or which are, or may become, due to Client (either individually or jointly with others or in which Client has any interest) and all rights Client may have against as security for the performance of all Client’s obligations to. Client further agrees that may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, require Client to deliver collateral to margin and secure Client’s performance of any obligations to. Such collateral shall be delivered, upon demand, in such amount and form and to such account or recipient as shall specify. may, in its discretion and without notice to Client, deduct any amounts from Client’s Account and apply or transfer any of Client’s securities and other property interchangeably between any of Client’s Accounts, each of which constitutes unconditional security for all obligations of Client. Client acknowledges that and its present and future affiliates act as agents for each other in respect of the assets subject to the security interest as described above and that and each such affiliate shall comply with any entitlement orders or instructions originated by any of them with respect to such assets or distribute any value in respect of any such assets at the direction of any of them, in each case without any further consent of Client. For purposes of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code (“UCC”), to the extent that Client has any control with respect to any such assets, upon the occurrence of a Close-Out Event as defined below, Client shall no longer have any control over such assets. and each such affiliate and Client agree that all such assets credited to any securities account maintained on the books of or any such affiliate shall be treated as a financial asset for purposes of the UCC. and each such affiliate hereby notify each other of, and each of them acknowledges, the first priority perfected security interest granted by Client hereunder. The Client (and each person acting on the Client’s behalf) agrees that any assets pledged as collateral by the Client in connection with any transaction entered into under this New Account Agreement will not constitute “plan assets” under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”) or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”).

4. Payment and Settlement. Client agrees to pay on demand all balances (including accrued but unpaid interest thereon) and any other obligations owing with respect to Client’s Account. Client agrees that all cash account transactions will be handled on a cash basis and Client shall pay for any security purchased for Client’s cash account, and deliver any securities sold for Client’s cash account, on or before the settlement date. Client warrants that for all cash accounts, no sale of securities is contemplated before the securities are paid for as provided above and that each item sold will be owned by Client at the time of sale.

5. Default. If Client defaults in the performance of any obligation under any transaction or agreement with, or becomes bankrupt, insolvent or subject to any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding, if the security interest hereunder is not or ceases to be a first priority perfected security interest, or if for any reason deems it advisable for its protection (each a “Close-Out Event”), may, without notice or demand to Client, and at such times and places as may determine, cancel, terminate, accelerate, liquidate and/or close-out any or all transactions and agreements between Client and, sell or otherwise transfer any securities or other property which may hold for Client or which is due to Client (either individually or jointly with others) and apply the proceeds to the discharge of Client’s obligations, set-off, net and recoup any obligations (whether physical or financial and whether or not then due) to Client against any obligations (whether physical or financial and whether or not then due) to, exercise all rights and remedies of a secured creditor in respect of all collateral in which has a security interest under the UCC (whether or not the UCC is otherwise applicable in the relevant jurisdiction) or right of set-off, cover any open positions of Client (by buying in or borrowing securities or otherwise) and take such other actions as deems appropriate, provided that if applicable law would stay or otherwise impair the ability of to take any such action upon any such bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding, will be deemed to have taken such action with respect to the cancellation, termination, acceleration, liquidation and/or close-out of transactions, and the application of appropriate set-offs, and if and to the extent deems it appropriate, the sale or disposition of securities or other property of Client, the exercise of rights of a secured creditor, and the application of proceeds immediately prior to such bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding. Client shall remain liable for any deficiency and shall promptly reimburse for any loss or expense incurred thereby, including losses sustained by reason of an inability to borrow any securities or other property sold for Client’s Account. Client agrees to immediately notify upon the occurrence of a Close-Out Event, but the failure to provide such notice shall not prejudice ’right to determine that a Close-Out Event has occurred.

6. Interest, Fees. Client agrees to pay interest charges which may be imposed by in accordance with ’s usual custom, with respect to late payments in conjunction with any transaction, including for securities purchased, in Client’s Account and prepayments in Client’s Account (i.e., the crediting of the proceeds of sale prior to settlement date or prior to receipt by of the item sold in good deliverable form). Client acknowledges receipt of the attached supplement entitled “Interest Charges and Margin Requirements Disclosure Statement” and a side rate letter, if applicable, and agrees to be bound thereby. Client agrees to pay promptly any amount which may become due in order to meet requests for additional deposits or marks to market with respect to any transactions including unissued securities purchased or sold by Client. Client agrees to pay promptly any custody or other fees which may be imposed by with respect to the account. Client authorizes to automatically debit Client’s Account in payment of any charges posted to the Account. Except as required by applicable law, each payment by Client, and all deliveries of margin or collateral, under this New Account Agreement shall be made, and the value of any margin or collateral shall be calculated, without withholding or deducting any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, assessments or fees of any nature, including interest, penalties and additions thereto that are imposed by any taxing authority (“Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted, Client shall pay such additional amounts as necessary to ensure that the actual net amount received by is equal to the amount that would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. With respect to payments by to Client under this New Account Agreement, Client will provide with any forms or documentation reasonably requested by in order to reduce or eliminate withholding tax thereon. is hereby authorized to withhold Taxes from any payment made hereunder and remit such Taxes to the relevant taxing authorities to the extent required by applicable law.

7. Orders. Except as provided in the next sentence, the giving of each sell order by Client shall constitute a designation of the sale as “long” and

G. New Account Agreement

a certification that the securities to be sold are owned by Client and, if such securities are not in ’s possession, the placing of such order shall constitute a warranty and covenant by Client that Client shall deliver such securities to on or before settlement date. If Client maintains a margin account, Client agrees to designate all sell orders as “long”, “short”, or “short exempt”. Client agrees that may cancel or “buy-in” any sell order, if such securities are not in the Account, are not timely delivered or are not in “good deliverable form.” In a “buy-in,” the party that failed to deliver the securities, or failed to deliver the securities in good deliverable form, is accountable for any resulting losses or expenses. See Section 11 below regarding “mandatory close-outs.” Prior to placing an order for the sale or transfer of any securities subject to Rule 144 or Rule 145(d) or Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933 or any other rule relating to restricted or control securities or securities that are otherwise contractually restricted (“Restricted Securities”), Client agrees that it will advise of the status of the securities and furnish with the necessary documents (including opinions of legal counsel, if so requests) to satisfy legal transfer requirements. Restricted Securities may not be sold or transferred until they satisfy legal transfer requirements. Client agrees that even if the necessary documents are furnished in a timely manner, there may be delays in the processing of Restricted Securities, which may result in delays in the delivery of securities and the crediting of cash to Client’s Account. Client is responsible for any delays, expenses and losses associated with compliance or failure to comply with all of the requirements and rules relating to Restricted Securities, and agrees to hold harmless in connection therewith.

Client acknowledges that when Client or sends an order for Client’s Account to an Exchange for execution, such order may be matched with a bid or offer by affiliated entities of that are specialists, market-makers and traders of these products on exchanges and in other marketplaces. Client hereby consents to the execution of all or part of Client’s orders with such entities.

8. Orders, Recommendations, Average Price Trades. Client acknowledges that, on occasion, may not be in a position to make a recommendation or render an opinion with respect to any security. Client acknowledges that may, in its sole discretion and without prior notice to Client, refuse to accept or execute any order from Client and, in such case, shall endeavor to give Client notice of such refusal as soon as practical. Client agrees that, in its sole discretion, may, but is not required to combine or “bunch” orders for Client’s account with orders for other clients’ accounts or accounts in which has beneficial interest and allocate the securities as proceeds acquired among the participating accounts in a manner that believes is fair and equitable, and/or in accordance with directions of Client’s agents, if applicable. In addition, there may be circumstances in which does not obtain the same price or execution for all of Client’s order or for the bunched order described above. In either event, Client will receive an average price for these transactions, unless Client’s agent otherwise instructs. Client agrees that the confirmation price for such transactions will reference an average price execution and that details will be furnished upon request.

Client acknowledges that, unless has expressly agreed in writing otherwise, is acting in the capacity of Client’s broker or dealer in connection with any transaction executed for or with Client’s Account and not as a financial adviser or a fiduciary, and no advice provided by has formed or shall form a primary basis for any investment decision by or on behalf of Client. may make available certain information about securities and investment strategies, including its own research reports and market commentaries as well as materials prepared by others. None of this information is personalized or in any way tailored to reflect Client’s personal financial circumstances or investment objectives and the securities or investment strategies discussed might not be suitable for Client. Therefore, Client should not view the fact that is making this information available as a recommendation to Client of any particular security or investment strategy. To the extent that Client’s transactions differ from a specific recommendation made by, if any, to Client with respect to the security, size, price and timing of a recommended transaction, or to the extent there have been variations in the facts relevant to the transaction, Client agrees that has no responsibility for determining the suitability of these transactions to Client.

9. Information, Reports, Statements, Communications. Client will promptly furnish to any information (including financial information) about Client upon request. Client represents (which representation shall be deemed repeated on each date on which this New Account Agreement is in effect) that Client’s financial statements or similar documents previously or hereafter provided to (i) do or will fairly present the financial condition of Client as of the date of such financial statements and the results of its operations for the period for which such financial statements are applicable, (ii) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted account principles consistently applied and, (iii) if audited, have been certified without reservation by a firm of independent public accountants.

Reports or confirmations of the execution of orders and statements of Client’s Account shall be conclusive if not objected to in writing within ten (10) days after forwarding by to Client by mail, web-reporting or otherwise.

Communications mailed, electronically transmitted or otherwise sent to Client at the address specified in records shall, until has received notice in writing of a different address and has updated its records (which update may take up to three (3) business days after receipt), be deemed to have been forwarded by when sent and the Client waives all claims resulting from failure to receive such communications.

10. Custodial Arrangements. If acts as custodian for the securities and other property in Client’s Account, is authorized to register such securities and other property in the name of, or any nominee, including sub-custodians, or cause such securities and other property to be registered in the name of, or in the name of the nominee of, a recognized depository or clearing organization. Client understands that when holds on Client’s behalf bonds or preferred stocks that are callable in part by the issuer, such securities will be subject to an impartial lottery allocation system in which the probability of Client’s securities being selected as called is proportional to the holdings of all clients of such securities held in bulk by or for. Client further understands that will withdraw such securities from any depository prior to the first date on which such securities may be called unless such depository has adopted an impartial lottery system which is applicable to all participants. is authorized to withdraw securities sold or otherwise disposed of, and to credit Client’s Account with the proceeds thereof or make such other disposition thereof as Client may direct. is further authorized to collect all income and other payments which may become due on Client’s securities, to surrender for payment maturing obligations and those called for redemption and to exchange certificates in temporary form for like certificates in definitive form, or, if the par value of any shares is changed, to effect the exchange for new certificates. It is understood and agreed by Client that although will use reasonable efforts to effect the authorization set forth in the preceding sentence, will incur no liability for its failure to do so. is subject to Exchange rules and regulations that may require it to forward to its clients certain written materials relating to the securities and other property in such client’s account (including proxy materials). Except as otherwise required by these rules and regulations, is not otherwise responsible for obtaining, notifying Client of its receipt of, or forwarding to Client, any written materials relating to the securities and other property in Client’s Account.

Under SEC Rule 15c3-3, is required to obtain and, thereafter, to maintain possession or control of customer fully-paid securities and excess margin securities, as such terms are defined in that rule. If determines that it does not have sufficient securities under its possession or control as required (such a condition is referred to as a segregation deficiency), it is required by that rule to take certain steps to obtain possession or control, including, without limitation, recalling securities from loans, and is permitted the period of time set forth in that rule in which to obtain possession or control. To the extent that has a segregation deficiency in shares over a record date for a vote, dividend or other corporate action or distribution, will allocate such deficiency to either (a) the client(s) to whom such a deficiency is attributed (if any); or (b) if the deficiency cannot practically be attributed to any particular customer, will allocate such deficiency to its customers using a random impartial lottery. Client understands and agrees that may change its allocation method at any time. The customers to whom such deficiency is allocated will be unable to vote or give consent in respect of such corporate action.

11. Locates of Borrowable Securities. Subject to certain limited exceptions, before executing a short sale, a broker-dealer is required to make an “affirmative determination” as to whether the broker-dealer will receive delivery of the security from the customer or the securities can be borrowed by the settlement date. This process is commonly referred to as “obtaining a locate.” If a sufficient quantity of securities is not available from the broker-dealer’s inventory, the broker-dealer may, among other things, contact third-party lenders to ascertain whether they have securities available for lending. If a sufficient quantity of securities appears borrowable, the broker-dealer may proceed to execute the short sale on behalf of its customer. A locate is simply an indication that, as of the time the locate is obtained, it appears that securities will be available for borrowing on the settlement date. A locate is not a guarantee that securities will actually be available for lending and delivery on the settlement date or that the lender will not thereafter require the return of the borrowed securities at any time. If the securities are not available for borrowing for any reason by the settlement date, Client, as the seller, will “fail to deliver” to the purchaser. A purchaser or securities lender may, in addition to other remedies and at any time after the giving of any required notice, buy-in the securities that were not timely delivered and Client will be responsible for all losses and costs of the buy-in. If (i) executes a short sale of any securities on behalf of Client, (ii) is responsible for settling a short sale on behalf of Client that was executed at another firm,

G-2

G. New Account Agreement

or (iii) if Client fails to deliver any securities it has sold in a long sale, is authorized to borrow the securities necessary to enable to make delivery. Client agrees to be responsible for any cost or loss may incur in sourcing and maintaining the borrow, or the cost may incur in obtaining the securities if is unable to borrow such securities. Client hereby appoints as its agent to complete all such transactions and authorizes to make advances and expend monies as are required. In respect of short positions maintained by Client over a corporate action record date, will, on the relevant payment date for such corporate action, if any, charge Client’s Account for money or property equal in value to the cost of such corporate action attributable to Client’s short position, including the costs of any lost tax benefits for the lenders. Client acknowledges that may source a borrow of securities from its own proprietary accounts or from customer margin shares. Client is ultimately responsible for the delivery of securities on the settlement date, the consequences of a failure to deliver, the timely return of securities borrowed on Client’s behalf, and all costs associated with such borrowings, including costs relating to any corporate actions.

12. Mandatory Close-Out & Pre-borrow Requirement. Regulations applicable to mandate that close-out sale transactions in certain equity securities for which delivery has not occurred within the period prescribed by the regulations after the normal settlement date. The close-out is to be effected by purchasing in the market securities of like kind and quantity for which delivery is owed. Any loss arising from this close-out will be for the account of the customer whose positions are closed out. A list of securities subject to this mandatory close-out requirement is or will be published by U.S. exchanges and U.S. securities associations for the securities that trade on that exchange or association.

If such failing to deliver transactions are not closed out, regulations applicable to, upon their effective date, will mandate that, until such failing to deliver transactions are closed out, (i) not accept short sale orders for those accounts determined by to have contributed to the fail unless or the Client has entered into a bona-fide arrangement to borrow the securities; or (ii) impose a “pre-borrow” requirement on all short sale orders for the firm’s or any client’s account.

To the extent that effects a close-out transaction by buying-in shares as described above, it will allocate the shares so acquired to those of its clients maintaining short positions on a pro-rata basis. Such allocation methodology is subject to change at any time in sole discretion based on individual facts and circumstances, provided that, in no case will any client who obtained a “locate” from for such shares be allocated more than its pro-rata shares of the buy-in.

13. Close-Out or Liquidation of Listed Option Positions. In addition to the rights granted to under this New Account Agreement and any other agreement between and Client, Client expressly authorizes to liquidate or close-out any of Client’s listed option positions, without notice to Client and without Client’s prior consent, in sole and absolute discretion, (i) if and when Client’s open positions exceed applicable position limits so as to reduce such open positions to a level that is in compliance with such limits, or (ii) upon the occurrence of a Close-Out Event. Client will bear and be solely responsible for any losses associated with such a reduction or liquidation.

14. Buy-in of Government Securities. Regulations issued under the Government Securities Act of 1986 require to initiate buy-in procedures for mortgage-backed securities that have been purchased for Client and that remain in a fail-to-receive status for more than 60 calendar days (referred to below as “fully paid fails”). Mandatory buy-ins are also required to complete a sale by Client (referred to below as “sell order fails”) of government securities which have not been received from Client within 30 calendar days after the settlement date (or in the case of mortgage-backed securities, 60 calendar days after settlement date). The Bond Market Association Buy-in Procedures for Mortgage Backed Securities and the Bond Market Association Buy-in Procedures for Government Securities permit the use of alternatives other than purchasing securities (e.g., securities may be borrowed, substituted or bought back) in closing out fully paid fails and sell order fails and also provide an exemption for short sales.

15. Additional Listed Options Provisions; Options “Style,” Exercise Assignment Notices. If Client trades listed option contracts, Client is aware of and agrees to be bound by all laws and rules applicable to the trading of option contracts. In particular, Client, either acting alone or in concert with others, agrees not to violate directly or indirectly (through as broker or otherwise), or contribute to the violation of the position or exercise limits of the Exchanges, which limits can be obtained by contacting a sales representative. Client acknowledges that the “style” of an option refers generally to when that option is exercisable. Specifically, (i) an “American-style” option is an option that may be exercised at any time (i.e., on a business day in which the option Exchange on which the option trades is open for trading) prior to its expiration, (ii) a “European-style” option is an option that may be exercised only on a specified exercise date (or expiration date) or during a specified time period before the option expires, and (iii) a “capped” option is an option that is automatically exercised prior to expiration if the market or Exchange on which the option trades determines that the value of the underlying interest at a specified time has reached the “cap price” for the option. Client understands that exercise assignment notices for option contracts are allocated among customer short positions pursuant to an automated procedure that randomly selects from among all customer short option positions, including positions established on the day of assignment, those contracts which are subject to exercise. Client understands and agrees that may change its allocation method at any time. Client further understands that all short positions in “American-style” options are liable for assignment at any time. A more detailed description of this random allocation procedure is available upon request.

16. Termination. Each party agrees that the Accounts maintained hereunder may be terminated by either party at any time effective upon the giving of notice of such termination to the other party. All applicable provisions will survive the termination of the Accounts and this New Account Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, upon any such termination, the provisions of this New Account Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to all securities and other property then held in such Accounts, all assets subject to the security interest hereunder, and all transactions and agreements then outstanding between Client and.

17. Power and Authority. Client (and each person acting on the Client’s behalf) represents and warrants that it has all necessary power and authority to execute and perform this Agreement and that the execution and performance of this Agreement will not cause it to violate any provisions in its charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, trust agreement or other constituent agreement or instrument, and that neither this Agreement nor any transaction entered into or contemplated hereunder will violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or constitutional provision (including, without limitation, any provision of ERISA, Section 4975 of Code or any tax “qualification” rule under the Code). Client further represents and warrants that this Agreement, as amended from time to time, is a legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against Client in accordance with its terms. Each of the persons executing this Agreement on Client’s behalf represents that he or she acting alone has full power and authority to deal with on Client’s behalf without notice to Client or any other undersigned person. Client agrees that will be entitled to act upon the instructions of any officer, director or employee of the Client having actual or apparent authority to act on behalf of the Client.

18. Notice of Bankruptcy, Insolvency, Reorganization, Dissolution, Termination, Incompetence & Death. In the event of any change which affects the manner in which the securities and other property in the Account is held (including, as applicable and without limitation, the death, resignation or incompetence of a joint owner or general partner or the bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or dissolution of Client or other similar event that affects Client’s legal standing), Client shall immediately give written notice thereof and, in addition to the actions permitted under this New Account Agreement and any other agreements relating to Client’s Account, is authorized to take such action, require such documents and tax waivers, and retain such portion of or restrict transactions in the Account, all as may deem advisable.

19. Margin. If Client maintains a margin account, Client represents and warrants to that Client has had an opportunity to discuss with the risks associated with the use of margin and that the use of margin is consistent with Client’s investment objectives. Client agrees to maintain margins for Client’s Account as may require from time to time. Client agrees to promptly satisfy all margin and maintenance calls, pay interest charges which are imposed, in accordance with usual custom, with respect to Client’s Account and to pay on demand any debit balance owing with respect to Client’s Account. Client agrees that securities and other property in Client’s Account may be carried in general loans and may be pledged, repledged, hypothecated, rehypothecated, sold, lent or otherwise transferred or used separately or in common with other securities and any other property for the sums due to thereon or for a greater sum. Client understands (1) that might not retain in its possession or control for delivery a like amount of similar securities or other property and (2) that certain rights of ownership, including the right to vote such securities, may be transferred to or by to others. Client agrees that may, in its sole discretion, transfer securities held in Client’s other Accounts with, including Client’s cash account, to Client’s margin account. Any securities so transferred may be used by as provided in this New Account Agreement. Client understands that notwithstanding a general policy of giving clients notice of a margin deficiency, is not obligated to request additional margin from Client, and that there may be circumstances where will liquidate securities in the Account without notice to Client in accordance with Section 5 of this New Account Agreement.

20. Use of Name. Client agrees not to use name for any purpose without prior written consent, including, but not limited to, in any advertisement, publication or offering material.

21. Background Check. Client authorizes and any agent or service provider to use, verify and confirm any of the information that Client or its agent provides, including obtaining reports concerning Client’s (and its principals’) background, credit standing and business conduct and to share all such information with their successors, assigns, agents and service providers to determine Client’s eligibility for an Account or any feature or otherwise. Upon Client’s written request, will inform Client whether has obtained credit reports, and, if so, will provide Client with the name and address of the reporting agency that furnished the reports. Client agrees that, without notifying Client, may request a new credit report in connection with any review, extension, or renewal of the Account. Client further agrees that may submit information reflecting on Client’s credit record to a credit reporting agency. Client authorizes to share with its affiliates credit bureau information, information contained in Client’s application to open an Account, information obtained from third parties and similar information, or to use such information consistent with privacy policy.

22. Disclaimer of Liability; Indemnification. Except as otherwise provided by law, no entity shall be liable for any expense, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges, claims, penalties, fines and excise taxes of any kind or nature (including legal expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Losses”) by or with respect to any matters pertaining to the Account, except to the extent that such Losses are actual Losses and are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitration panel in a final non-appealable judgment or order to have resulted solely from such entity’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, Client agrees that shall have no liability for, and agrees to indemnify and hold harmless from, all Losses that result from: (a) Client’s or its agent’s misrepresentation, act or omission or alleged misrepresentation, act or omission, (b) following Client’s or its agent’s directions or failing to follow Client’s or its agent’s unlawful or unreasonable directions, (c) any activities or services of in connection with the Account or otherwise (including, without limitation, any technology services, reporting, trading, research or capital introduction services) and (d) the failure by any person not controlled by to perform any obligations to Client.

Client understands that the use of Automated Systems entails risks, such as interruption or delays of service, system failure and errors in the design or functioning of such Automated Systems (collectively, a “System Failure”) that could cause substantial damage, expense or liability to Client. Client understands and agrees that will have no liability whatsoever for any claim, loss, cost, expense, damage or liability of Client arising out of or relating to a System Failure.
