Therefore, in consideration of the mutual premises and covenants, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties agree to the following:

1. Responsibilities of WI - Index Services

E.CLIENT will not use INDEX information or files for any purpose outside those outlined in this agreement.

3. Services to Other Clients and potential conflicts of interest

This Agreement covers CLIENT’s licensing of the Fidelis Multi-Cap Multi-Factor ESG Index. The CLIENT is not permitted to share or use the INDEX for the benefit of any other person or entity. CLIENT acknowledges that WI may provide the same service to various other clients; however, WI shall grant CLIENT the exclusive license rights to the INDEX for a period of 36 months following the date of this AGREEMENT, during which time WI shall not allow any other person or entity licensing rights to the INDEX. Additionally, at no time shall WI utilize the INDEX themselves in the creation or management of any investment product or service except for separately managed accounts with their direct clients. “Direct clients” does not include other registered investment advisory firms, broker-dealers or other investment management platforms. The CLIENT also acknowledges and agrees that WI may hold or deal in securities, property, or other assets which may be the same as those included in the Fidelis Multi-Cap Multi-Factor ESG Index. The fact that WI and their separate account (SA) clients own many of the same securities included in the INDEX creates a direct conflict of interest. To mitigate potential conflicts WI has segregated their Institutional (INDEX and research) business from their advisory business. At no point will Wallick Investment’s Advisory side have access to planned purchases or sales of securities in the INDEX prior to all licensees. Despite having a “fire wall” between institutional business and advisory business, Wallick Investments Advisory maintains separate accounts for their separate account clients which may buy and sell many of the same holdings as the INDEX. Members of the WI Fidelis Multi-Cap Multi-Factor ESG Index Investment Committee will be restricted from Wallick Investment’s Advisory investment meetings from 5 days prior to INDEX Selection Day to 5 days after INDEX Rebalance Day.

4.Fees a. WI’s fees set forth below are billed and payable no less frequently than quarterly, and due within thirty days following the end of the applicable billing period. Fees paid to WI as set forth in Exhibit A are for licensing the WI Fidelis Multi-Cap Multi-Factor ESG Index.

5. Terms of Agreement

This Agreement shall continue in effect for one year and will renew for consecutive one-year periods unless cancelled by written notice 180 days before the renewal date.

This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon at least (180) days written notice. Such termination will not affect the liabilities or the obligations of the parties under this Agreement arising from transactions initiated prior to such termination. No refunds will be issued. With termination, all investment products replicating the associated INDEX must also be terminated.
