As used in this Article 6, the term "Adviser" shall include Directors, officers and employees of the Adviser as well as that corporation itself.
Limitation of Liability of the Investment Adviser The Investment Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or omission in the management of the Fund, except for willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder. As used in this Article IV, the term "Investment Adviser" shall include any affiliates of the Investment Adviser performing services for the Fund contemplated hereby and partners, directors, officers and employees of the Investment Adviser and of such affiliates.
Limitation of Liability of Sub-Adviser (a) The Sub-Adviser shall be liable for losses resulting from its own acts or omissions caused by the Sub-Adviser’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder or its reckless disregard of its duties under this Agreement, and nothing herein shall protect the Sub-Adviser against any such liability to the shareholders of the Fund or to the Adviser. Except as provided in the previous sentence, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Fund or to any shareholder of the Fund or to the Adviser for any claim or loss arising out of any investment or other act or omission in the performance of the Sub-Adviser’s duties under this Agreement, or for any loss or damage resulting from the imposition by any government of exchange control restrictions which might affect the liquidity of the Fund’s assets maintained with custodians or securities depositories in foreign countries, or from any political acts of any foreign governments to which such assets might be exposed, or for any tax of any kind (other than taxes on the Sub-Adviser’s income), including without limitation any statutory, governmental, state, provincial, regional, local or municipal imposition, duty, contribution or levy imposed by any government or governmental agency upon or with respect to such assets or income earned with respect thereto (collectively “Taxation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence and the provisions of Section 5(b), the Sub-Adviser shall be liable for taxes or tax penalties incurred by the Fund, or by any legal or beneficial owner of the Fund’s shares, for any failure of the Portfolio to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M, or to meet the diversification requirements of Section 817(h), of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to the extent resulting from the Sub-Adviser’s management of the Portfolio. (b) In the event the Sub-Adviser is assessed any Taxation in respect of the assets, income or activities of the Portfolio, the Adviser and the Fund jointly will indemnify the Sub-Adviser for all such amounts wherever imposed, together with all penalties, charges, costs and interest relating thereto and all expenditures, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by the Sub-Adviser in connection with the defense or settlement of any such assessment. The Sub-Adviser shall undertake and control the defense or settlement of any such assessment, including the selection of counsel or other professional advisers, provided that the selection of such counsel and advisers and the settlement of any assessment shall be subject to the approval of the Adviser and the Fund, which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Adviser and the Fund shall have the right to retain separate counsel and assume the defense or settlement on behalf of the Adviser and the Fund, as the case may be, of any such assessment if representation of the Adviser and the Fund by counsel selected by the Sub-Adviser would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interest.
Limitation of Liability of Sub-Adviser and Indemnification Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any costs or liabilities arising from any error of judgment or mistake of law or any loss suffered by the Fund or the Trust in connection with the matters to which this Contract relates except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of Sub-Adviser in the performance by Sub-Adviser of its duties or from reckless disregard by Sub-Adviser of its obligations and duties under this Contract. Any person, even though also an officer, partner, employee, or agent of Sub-Adviser, who may be or become a Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust, shall be deemed, when rendering services to a Fund or the Trust or acting with respect to any business of a Fund or the Trust to be rendering such service to or acting solely for the Fund or the Trust and not as an officer, partner, employee, or agent or one under the control or direction of Sub-Adviser even though paid by it.
Limitation of Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification The Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its general partner and the Administrator) shall not be liable to the Corporation for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Adviser in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Corporation, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Investment Company Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty (as the same is finally determined by judicial proceedings) with respect to the receipt of compensation for services, and the Corporation shall indemnify, defend and protect the Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its general partner and the Administrator, each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from and against all damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise based upon the performance of any of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Paragraph 9 to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall protect or be deemed to protect the Indemnified Parties against or entitle or be deemed to entitle the Indemnified Parties to indemnification in respect of, any liability to the Corporation or its security holders to which the Indemnified Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Adviser’s duties and obligations under this Agreement (as the same shall be determined in accordance with the Investment Company Act and any interpretations or guidance by the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff thereunder).
Limitation of Liability of the Sub-Adviser Neither the Sub-adviser nor any of its officers, directors, or employees, nor any person performing executive, administrative, trading, or other functions for the applicable Fund (at the direction or request of the Sub-adviser) or the Sub-adviser in connection with the Sub-adviser’s discharge of its obligations undertaken or reasonably assumed with respect to this Agreement, shall be liable for (i) any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund or (ii) any error of fact or mistake of law contained in any report or data provided by the Sub-adviser, except for any error, mistake or loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of its or his duties on behalf of the Fund or from reckless disregard by the Sub-adviser or any such person of the duties of the Sub-adviser pursuant to this Agreement.
Limitation of Liabilities IN NO EVENT WILL LICENSOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF USE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, COST OF COVER OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER ALLEGED AS A BREACH OF CONTRACT OR TORTIOUS CONDUCT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, EVEN IF LICENSOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL LICENSOR BE LIABLE TO LICENSEE OR ANY SUBLICENSEE OR ANY OTHER ENTITY FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LOSS CAUSED BY DELAY IN DELIVERY OR FURNISHING OF DATA USING THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. IN ADDITION, LICENSOR SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER IN EXCESS OF TWO MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($2,500,000.00). THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS SHALL NOT APPLY TO (I) INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS; (II) ANY CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH, OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY; OR (III) ANY CLAIMS BASED UPON LICENSOR'S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT; OR (IV) BREACHES OF THE CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS.
Limitation of Liability for Claims The Declaration, a copy of which, together with all amendments thereto, is on file in the Office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, provides that the name "Investors Fund Series" refers to the Trustees under the Declaration collectively as Trustees and not as individuals or personally, and that no shareholder of the Fund, or Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust, shall be subject to claims against or obligations of the Trust or of the Fund to any extent whatsoever, but that the Trust estate only shall be liable. You are hereby expressly put on notice of the limitation of liability as set forth in the Declaration and you agree that the obligations assumed by the Trust on behalf of the Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited in all cases to the Fund and its assets, and you shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligation from the shareholders or any shareholder of the Fund or any other series of the Trust, or from any Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust. You understand that the rights and obligations of each Fund, or series, under the Declaration are separate and distinct from those of any and all other series.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF ADVISER You may rely on information reasonably believed by you to be accurate and reliable. Except as may otherwise be required by the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder, neither you nor your shareholders, members, officers, directors, employees, agents, control persons or affiliates of any thereof shall be subject to any liability for, or any damages, expenses or losses incurred by the Trust in connection with, any error of judgment, mistake of law, any act or omission connected with or arising out of any services rendered under, or payments made pursuant to, this Agreement or any other matter to which this Agreement relates, except by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of any such persons in the performance of your duties under this Agreement, or by reason of reckless disregard by any of such persons of your obligations and duties under this Agreement. Any person, even though also a director, officer, employee, member, shareholder or agent of you, who may be or become an officer, director, trustee, employee or agent of the Trust, shall be deemed, when rendering services to the Trust or acting on any business of the Trust (other than services or business in connection with your duties hereunder), to be rendering such services to or acting solely for the Trust and not as a director, officer, employee, member, shareholder or agent of you, or one under your control or direction, even though paid by you.
Limitation of Liability of Manager As an inducement to your undertaking to render services pursuant to this Agreement, the Trust agrees that you shall not be liable under this Agreement for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to protect or purport to protect you against any liability to the Trust, the Fund or its shareholders to which you would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of your duties, or by reason of your reckless disregard of your obligations and duties hereunder.
