The Trading Manager agrees not to override any such instructions for the reasons specified in clauses (ii) or (iii) of the preceding sentence unless the Trading Advisor fails to comply with a request of the Trading Manager to make the necessary amount of funds available to the Trading Company within two trading days of such request. The Trading Advisor shall not be liable for the consequences of any decision by the Trading Manager to override instructions of the Trading Advisor, except to the extent that such consequences result from a material breach of this Agreement by the Trading Advisor or the Trading Advisor fails to comply with the Trading Manager’s decision to override an instruction. (b) The Trading Advisor shall: (i) Exercise good faith and due care in trading futures interests for the account of the Trading Company in accordance with the prohibitions and Trading Policies, and the trading systems, methods, and strategies of the Trading Advisor as disclosed in the Disclosure Information, with such changes and additions to such trading systems, methods or strategies as the Trading Advisor, from time to time, incorporates into its trading approach for accounts (including both actual and notional funds) the size of the Trading Company. (ii) Provide the Trading Manager, within 45 days of the end of a calendar quarter, and within 45 days of a separate request which the Trading Manager may make from time to time, with summary information comparing the performance of the Trading Company’s account and the performance of all other client accounts (“Other Accounts”) directed by the Trading Advisor using the trading systems used by the Trading Advisor on behalf of the Trading Company adjusted for notional funding and leverage differences, if any, over a specified period of time for the purpose of confirming that the Trading Company has been treated equitably compared to such Other Accounts. In providing such information, the Trading Advisor may take such steps as are necessary to assure the confidentiality of the Trading Advisor’s clients’ identities and their account positions. The Trading Advisor shall, upon the Trading Manager’s request, consult with the Trading Manager concerning any discrepancies between the performance of such Other Accounts and the Trading Company’s account. The Trading Advisor shall promptly inform the Trading Manager in writing of any material discrepancies of which the Trading Advisor is aware. The Trading Manager acknowledges that the following differences in accounts may cause divergent trading results: different trading strategies, methods or degrees of leverage, different trading policies, accounts experiencing differing inflows or outflows of equity, different risk profiles, accounts which commence trading at different times and accounts which have different portfolios or different fiscal years. (iii) Inform the Trading Manager when the Trading Advisor’s open positions maintained by the Trading Advisor exceed the Trading Advisor’s applicable speculative position limits. (iv) Upon request of the Trading Manager, promptly provide the Trading Manager with all information concerning the Trading Advisor and its activities reasonably requested by the Trading Manager (including, without limitation, information relating to changes in control, key personnel, trading approach, or financial condition). (c) All purchases and sales of futures interests pursuant to this Agreement shall be for the account, and at the risk, of the Trading Company and not for the account, or at the risk of the Trading Advisor or any of its affiliates or each of their principals, stockholders, directors, officers, or employees, or any other person, if any, who controls the Trading Advisor. All brokerage commissions and related transaction fees arising from such trading by the Trading Advisor shall be for the account of the Trading Company. (d) Subject to Section 7(a) hereof, the Trading Advisor shall assume financial responsibility for any errors committed or caused by it in transmitting orders for the purchase or sale of futures interests for the Trading Company’s account including payment to the Commodity Brokers (as described in Section 4 hereof) of the floor brokerage commissions, exchange, NFA fees, and other transaction charges and give-up charges incurred by the Commodity Broker on such trades but only for the amount of the Commodity Brokers’ out-of-pocket costs in respect thereof. The Trading Advisor’s errors shall include, but not be limited to, inputting improper trading signals or communicating incorrect orders to the Commodity Brokers. The Trading Advisor shall have an affirmative obligation to promptly notify the Trading Manager upon discovery of its own errors with respect to the account, and the Trading Advisor shall use its best efforts to identify and promptly notify the Trading Manager of any order or trade which the Trading Advisor reasonably believes was not executed in accordance with its instructions to any Commodity Broker or such other commodity broker utilized to execute orders for the Trading Company. Nothing herein shall require the Trading Advisor to accept responsibility for, or be in any way liable on account of, errors caused by the executing or clearing brokers through whom positions are taken or maintained. (e) Prior to the commencement of trading by the Trading Company, the Trading Manager, on behalf of the Trading Company, shall deliver to the Trading Advisor a trading authorization appointing the Trading Advisor the Trading Company’s attorney-in-fact for such purpose (a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit B). (f) In performing services to the Trading Company, the Trading Advisor shall utilize its Global Markets Strategy - Futures Only (the “Trading Program”), as disclosed in the Disclosure Information, and as modified from time to time. The Trading Advisor shall give the Trading Manager prior written notice of any change in the Trading Program that the Trading Advisor considers to be material (and shall not effect such change on behalf of the Trading Company without the Trading Manager’s consent), including any additional futures interests to be traded by the Trading Advisor not already listed on Exhibit C. Changes in the futures interests traded, provided that such futures interests are listed on Exhibit C, shall not be deemed a modification of the Trading Program.
