CONSULTING AGREEMENT

This Consulting Agreement (“Agreement”), effective as of January 28, 2022, is entered into by and between NORTHERN LIGHTS COMPLIANCE SERVICES, LLC, a Nebraska limited liability company, with offices at 80 Arkay Drive, Suite 110, Hauppauge, New York 11788 (“NLCS”), and THE TIMOTHY PLAN, a Delaware business trust (the “Client”; and together with NLCS, the “Parties” and each a “Party”), on its own behalf and on behalf of the Timothy Plan Funds listed on Appendix A attached hereto (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”).

SCOPE OF SERVICES

NLCS shall provide Client with the consulting services (the “Services”) described in the attached Schedule I (the “Services Schedule”). From time to time, the Parties may enter into one or more additional schedules (each a “Schedule”), each of which shall be sequentially numbered (e.g., I, II, etc.), and will serve to supplement and/or modify the Services Schedule.

NLCS shall also supply the Client with an Anti-Money Laundering Officer (“AMLO”) who shall perform the Anti-Money Laundering Officer Services as described in the attached Schedule II.

COMPENSATION

In consideration of NLCS’s performance of the Services, Client will compensate NLCS in accordance with the Schedule that corresponds to the relevant Services.

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AND SCOPE OF SERVICES

a. NLCS shall act as an independent contractor and not as an agent of Client. NLCS shall not hold itself out as an agent of Client.

b. NLCS does not offer legal or accounting services and does not purport to replace the services provided by legal counsel or that of a certified public accountant. NLCS will make every reasonable effort to provide the Services in a timely and professional manner; however, there is no guarantee that work performed by NLCS will be favorably received by any regulatory agency, and may not be used by Client as the basis for any fraud or other claim by Client. NLCS will not perform management functions or make management decisions for Client. However, NLCS may provide advice, research materials, and recommendations to assist Client’s management in performing its functions and making decisions.

NLCS-0011

c. Although NLCS’s work may involve analysis of accounting and/or financial records, at no time will work performed by NLCS be deemed to be an audit of Client or any financial or accounting information in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or otherwise, nor will any work performed by NLCS consist of a review of the internal controls of Client.

d. Except to the extent necessary to perform NLCS’s obligations under this Agreement, nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict NLCS’s right, or the right of any of NLCS’s managers, officers or employees who also may be a director, trustee, officer or employee of the Client or a Fund, or who are otherwise affiliated persons of the Client or a Fund, to engage in any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, or to render services of any kind to any other corporation, company, firm, trust, association or individual.

CLIENT SERVICES IN SUPPORT OF SERVICES

Certain documentation, information and assistance will be requested by NLCS during the course of this engagement in order for NLCS to appropriately complete the engagement objectives related to the Services as Client may outline to NLCS. In performing the Services, NLCS will be relying on the accuracy and reliability of data, documents and representations provided to NLCS by Client. If NLCS believes that failure to make reasonably requested information available prohibits NLCS from providing the Services, including reviewing documents, processes, procedures, policies or assessments, or communicating with appropriate persons, in accordance with engagement objectives, NLCS will notify Client. In such event, Client will not hold NLCS responsible and all fees and expenses will be paid to NLCS in accordance with the terms of this engagement.

CONFIDENTIALITY

e. NLCS and the Client agree that all books, records, information, and data pertaining to the business of the other Party, any Fund, or any Service Provider (as defined below) that is exchanged or received pursuant to the negotiation or the carrying out of this Agreement shall remain confidential, and shall not be voluntarily disclosed to any other person, except that NLCS may release such information to the Board as contemplated by this Agreement and as permitted or required by law or approved in writing by the Client, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and may not be withheld where NLCS may be exposed to civil or criminal liability or proceedings for failure to release such information. This provision shall not preclude NLCS from sharing its compliance reports about the Client with other Service Providers to the Client. “Service Provider” shall mean investment advisers, underwriters, administrators, transfer agents, or other service providers of the Client.

f. Except as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, in accordance with Title 17, Chapter II, part 248 of the Code of Federal Regulations (17 CFR 248.1 – 248.30) (“Reg S-P”), NLCS will not directly, or indirectly through an affiliate, disclose any non-public personal information as defined in Reg S-P, received from the Client, any Fund, or any Service Provider to any person that is not affiliated with the Client, such Fund, or such Service Provider; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, NLCS may disclose such information to an affiliate of NLCS if, but only to the extent, such affiliate has agreed to be bound by the same limits on non-disclosure as set forth herein.

The Client acknowledges that the databases, computer programs, screen formats, report formats, interactive design techniques, and documentation manuals maintained by NLCS on databases under the control and ownership of NLCS or a third party constitute copyrighted, trade secret, or other proprietary information (collectively, “NLCS Proprietary Information’’) of substantial value to NLCS or the third party.
