The Sub-Administrator shall have no liability in respect of any loss, damage or expense suffered by the Administrator or a Fund insofar as such loss, damage or expense arises from the performance of the Sub-Administrator’s duties hereunder in reliance upon records that were maintained for the Administrator or the Fund by entities other than the Sub-Administrator prior to the Sub-Administrator’s appointment as Sub-Administrator hereunder. The Sub-Administrator shall have no liability for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss or damage resulting from the performance or nonperformance of its duties hereunder unless solely caused by or resulting from the negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, or reckless disregard of the Sub-Administrator, its officers, or employees of their obligations and duties under this Agreement.

kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees related to claims therefore) under any provision of this Agreement or for any such damages arising out of any act or failure to act hereunder, each of which is hereby excluded by agreement of the parties regardless of whether such damages were foreseeable or whether either party or any entity had been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Except as may arise from the Sub-Administrator’s negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, or reckless disregard of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Sub-Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, work stoppage, power or other mechanical failure, computer virus, natural disaster, governmental action or communication disruption; however, the Sub-Administrator shall take reasonable measures to resume performance as soon as possible in these situations.

Except as set forth below, the Administrator shall indemnify and hold the Sub-Administrator and its directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from all loss, cost, damage and expense, including reasonable fees and expenses for counsel, incurred by the Sub-Administrator resulting from any claim, demand, action or suit in connection with the Sub-Administrator’s acceptance of this Agreement, any action or omission by it in the performance of its duties hereunder, or as a result of acting upon any instructions reasonably believed by it to have been duly authorized by the Trust or the Administrator, or upon reasonable reliance on information or records given or made by the Trust or the Administrator, provided that this indemnification shall not apply to actions or omissions of the Sub-Administrator, its directors, officers, or employees in cases of its or their own negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith, or reckless disregard of their obligations and duties under this Agreement.

The limitation of liability and indemnification contained herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Neither party will use or disclose confidential information for purposes other than the activities contemplated by this Agreement or except as required by law, court process or pursuant to the lawful requirement of a governmental agency, or if the party is advised by counsel that it may incur liability for failure to make a disclosure, or except at the request or with the written consent of the

other party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party acknowledges that the other party may provide access to and use of confidential information relating to the other party to the disclosing party’s employees, contractors, agents, professional advisors, auditors or persons performing similar functions.

The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information (i) that is publicly available when provided or thereafter becomes publicly available, other than through a breach of this Agreement, (ii) that is independently derived by a party hereto without the use of any information provided by the other party hereto in connection with this Agreement, (iii) that is required in any legal or regulatory proceeding, investigation, audit, examination, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, or by operation of law or regulation, or (iv) where the party seeking to disclose has received the prior written consent of the party providing the information, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Furthermore, and notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Sub-Administrator may aggregate Fund data with similar data of other customers of the Sub-Administrator (“Aggregated Data”) and may use Aggregated Data for purposes of constructing statistical models so long as such Aggregated Data represents a sufficiently large sample that no Fund data can be identified either directly or by inference or implication.

The undertakings and obligations contained in this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement for a period of three (3) years.
