Each party shall be liable for any damages, losses or costs arising out of such party’s failure to perform its duties under this Agreement to the extent such damages, losses or costs arise out of its willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder.

C.A copy of the Fund’s formation document is on file with the Secretary of State (or equivalent authority) of the state in which the Fund is organized, and notice is hereby given that this instrument is executed on behalf of the Fund and not the Directors or Trustees (as applicable) of the Fund individually and that the obligations of this instrument are not binding upon any of the Directors, Trustees, officers or shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Fund, and Ultimus shall look only to the assets of the Fund for the satisfaction of such obligations.

D.Ultimus shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any officer, agent, representative or employee of the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser or any of the Fund’s other service providers until receipt of written notice thereof from the Fund. As used in this Agreement, the term “investment adviser” includes all sub-advisers or persons performing similar services.

E.The Fund is responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations, , including, but not limited to, compliance with the Investment Company Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the policies and limitations of the Fund relating to the portfolio investments as set forth in the prospectus and statement of additional information. Ultimus’ monitoring and other functions hereunder shall not relieve the Fund of its primary day-to-day responsibility for overseeing such compliance.

F.To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Fund agrees to limit Ultimus’ liability for the Fund’s Losses (as defined below), other than liability resulting from Ultimus’ willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder), to an amount that shall not exceed the total compensation received by Ultimus under this Agreement during the most recent rolling 12-month period or the actual time period this Agreement has been in effect if less than 12 months.

Page 8 of 18


Indemnitees harmless from and against any actions, suits, claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and reasonable costs, charges, and expenses (including attorney fees and investigation expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of (1) the Indemnifying Party’s failure to exercise the standard of care set forth above unless and to the extent such Losses were caused by the Indemnitees own willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence;

B.Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Fund shall indemnify Ultimus for Ultimus’ Losses arising from circumstances under Section 10.2.A.

C.Upon the assertion of a claim for which either party may be required to indemnify the other, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such assertion and shall keep the Indemnifying Party advised with respect to all developments concerning such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Indemnitee to timely notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

D.The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its option, to assume the defense of any action that is the subject of the indemnification provisions hereunder, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Indemnitee. Any Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnitee (and shall not be subject to reimbursements hereunder), unless:
(i) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee; or (ii) the named parties to any such action (including any impleaded parties) include such Indemnitee and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnitee shall have been advised by counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which materially conflict with those available to the Indemnifying Party; provided that the Indemnifying Party shall not in such event be responsible hereunder for the fees and expenses of more than one firm or separate counsel in connection with any action in the same jurisdiction, in addition to any local counsel.

E.The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any action effected without its written consent, with such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. In addition, the Indemnifying Party will not, without prior written consent of the Indemnitee, settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in or otherwise seek to terminate any pending or threatened action in respect of which indemnification has been or may be sought hereunder (whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto)

unless such settlement, compromise, consent or termination includes an unconditional release of each Indemnitee from all Losses arising out of such action and does not include any findings of fact or admissions of fault or culpability as to the Indemnitee.


10.4.The provisions of this Section 10 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

11.Force Majeure.

Neither party will be liable for Losses, loss of data, delay of Services, or any other issues caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, delays by third party vendors and/or communications carriers, acts of civil or military authority, national emergencies, labor difficulties, fire, flood, catastrophe, acts of God, insurrection, war, riots, pandemics, failure of the mails, transportation, communication, or power supply.
