RESPONSIBILITY OF ADMINISTRATOR A. The Company shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Investment Company in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Company shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the Investment Company) on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice. Any person, even though also an officer, director, trustee, partner, employee or agent of the Company, who may be or become an officer, director, trustee, partner, employee or agent of the Investment Company, shall be deemed, when rendering services to the Investment Company or acting on any business of the Investment Company (other than services or business in connection with the duties of the Company hereunder) to be rendering such services to or acting solely for the Investment Company and not as an officer, director, trustee, partner, employee or agent or one under the control or direction of the Company even though paid by the Company. B. The Company shall be kept indemnified by the Investment Company and be without liability for any action taken or thing done by it in performing the Administrative Services in accordance with the above standards. In order that the indemnification provisions contained in this Article 10 shall apply, however, it is understood that if in any case the Investment Company may be asked to indemnify or hold the Company harmless, the Investment Company shall be fully and promptly advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and it is further understood that the Company will use all reasonable care to identify and notify the Investment Company promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears likely to present the probability of such a claim for indemnification against the Investment Company. The Investment Company shall have the option to defend the Company against any claim which may be the subject of this indemnification. In the event that the Investment Company so elects, it will so notify the Company and thereupon the Investment Company shall take over complete defense of the claim, and the Company shall in such situation initiate no further legal or other expenses for which it shall seek indemnification under this Article. The Company shall in no case confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the Investment Company will be asked to indemnify the Company except with the Investment Company's written consent.
