Fund Accounting Services (a) BNY, in performing the services required of it under the terms of this Agreement, shall be entitled to rely fully on the accuracy and validity of any and all instructions, explanations, information, specifications and documentation furnished to it by a Fund and shall have no duty or obligation to review the accuracy, validity or propriety of such instructions, explanations, information, specifications or documentation, including, without limitation, evaluations of securities; the amounts or formula for calculating the amounts and times of accrual of Fund's liabilities and expenses; the amounts receivable and the amounts payable on the sale or purchase of securities; and amounts receivable or amounts payable for the sale or redemption of Fund shares effected by or on behalf of the Fund. In the event BNY's computations hereunder rely, in whole or in part, upon information, including, without limitation, bid, offer or market values of securities or other assets, or accruals of interest or earnings thereon, from a pricing or similar service utilized, or subscribed to, by BNY which BNY in its judgment deems reliable, or any other third party pricing source designated by the Trust, BNY shall not be responsible for, under any duty to inquire into, or deemed to make any assurances with respect to, the accuracy or completeness of such information. BNY shall not be required to inquire into any valuation of securities or other assets by the Fund or any third party described in this Section, even though BNY in performing services similar to the services provided pursuant to this Agreement for others may receive different valuations of the same or different securities of the same issuers.
(b) Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the direction and approval of the Trust's Board, BNY shall perform the computations described in Schedule II at such times and dates and in the manner specified or described in the then-current prospectus(es) of a Fund. To the extent valuation of securities or a computation specified or described in a Fund's Pricing Procedures or then-current effective prospectus(es) is at any time inconsistent with any applicable laws or regulations, the Trust or BAAI shall immediately so notify BNY in writing and thereafter shall furnish BNY at all appropriate times with the values of such securities and such Fund's net asset value or other amounts otherwise to be calculated by BNY, or, subject to the prior approval of BNY, instruct BNY in writing to value securities and make such computations in a manner which the Trust or BAAI then represents in writing to be consistent with all applicable laws and regulations. The Trust or BAAI may also from time to time, subject to the prior approval of BNY, instruct BNY in writing to make computations other than as specified in this Section of this Agreement. By giving such instruction, the Trust or BAAI shall be deemed to have represented that such instruction is consistent with all applicable laws and regulations and the then-current effective prospectus(es) of the particular Fund. The Trust or BAAI shall have sole responsibility for determining the method of valuation of securities and the method of computations, and all computations, valuation of securities and the method of computing each Fund's net asset value shall be subject to approval by the Trust and BAAI. BNY shall not be liable for relying on any price provided by any pricing service believed by BNY to be reliable, and the Trust or BAAI shall furnish values when the same are not available from a pricing service utilized by BNY, with such furnishing to constitute an instruction to BNY to rely on the provided values.
(c) BNY shall be responsible for determining and properly reflecting in the computations made by it under this Agreement: (i) the taxable nature of any distribution or amount received or deemed received by, or payable to, a Fund; (ii) the taxable nature or effect on a Fund or its shareholders of any corporate actions, class actions, tax reclaims, tax refunds, or similar events; (iii) the taxable nature or taxable amount of any distribution or dividend paid, payable or deemed paid, by a Fund to its shareholders; (iv) the effect under any federal, state, or foreign income tax laws of a Fund making or not making any distribution or dividend payment, or any election with respect thereto; or (v) any tax accounting; provided, however, that if BNY is not certain of the taxable nature, amount or effect of any such item, it may seek instructions regarding the proper treatment of such item from the Trust or BAAI in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1(e), above, and shall have no liability for acting in reliance on such instructions.

Department Responsibilities The use of sick leave may properly be denied if these procedures are not followed. Abuse of sick leave on the part of the employee is cause for disciplinary action. Departmental approval of sick leave is a certification of the legitimacy of the sick leave claim. The department head or designee may make reasonable inquiries about employee absences. The department may require medical verification for an absence of three (3) or more working days. The department may also require medical verification for absences of less than three (3) working days for probable cause if the employee had been notified in advance in writing that such verification was necessary. Inquiries may be made in the following ways:
1. Calling the employee's residence telephone number or other contact telephone number provided by the employee if telephone notification was not made in accordance with departmental sick leave call-in guidelines. These inquiries shall be subject to any restrictions imposed by the employee under Section 14.4.a.
2. Obtaining the employee's signature on the Absence/Overtime Record, or on another form established for that purpose, as employee certification of the legitimacy of the claim.
3. Obtaining the employee's written statement regarding the sick leave claim and duration.
4. Requiring the employee to obtain a physician's certificate or verification of the employee's illness, date(s) the employee was incapacitated, and the employee's ability to return to work, as specified above.
5. In absences of an extended nature, requiring the employee to obtain from their physician a statement of progress and anticipated date on which the employee will be able to return to work, as specified above. Department heads are responsible for establishing timekeeping procedures which will insure the submission of a time card covering each employee absence and for operating their respective offices in accordance with these policies and with clarifying regulations issued by the Office of the County Administrator. To help assure uniform policy application, the Director of Human Resources or designated management staff of the County Human Resources Department should be contacted with respect to sick leave determinations about which the department is in doubt.
