• Limitation on Liability; Indemnification (a) Rise assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder in good faith. Rise and its Affiliates, and any of their members, stockholders, managers, partners, personnel, officers, directors, employees, consultants and any person providing advisory or sub-advisory services to Rise, will not be liable to the Manager or the Manager’s stockholders, partners or members for any acts or omissions by any such Person (including errors that may result from ordinary negligence, such as errors in the investment decision making process or in the trade process) performed in accordance with and pursuant to this Agreement, except by reason of acts or omission constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of their respective duties under this Agreement, as determined by a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The Manager shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless Rise, its Affiliates, and any of their members, stockholders, managers, partners, personnel, officers, directors, employees, consultants and any person providing advisory or sub-advisory services to Rise (each, a “Rise Indemnified Party”), of and from any and all expenses, losses, damages, liabilities, demands, charges and claims of any nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) (collectively “Losses”) incurred by the Rise Indemnified Party 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 Manager or its security holders) arising from any acts or omissions of such Rise Indemnified Party performed in good faith under this Agreement and not constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties of such Rise Indemnified Party under this Agreement. (b) Rise shall, to the full extent lawful, reimburse, indemnify and hold harmless the Manager, and the directors, officers, stockholders, partners or members of the Manager (each, a “Manager Indemnified Party” and, together with a Rise Indemnified Party, an “Indemnified Party”) of and from any and all Losses in respect of or arising from (i) any acts or omissions of Rise constituting bad faith, willful misconduct, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties of Rise under this Agreement or (ii) any claims by Rise’s employees relating to the terms and conditions of their employment by Rise. Rise hereby agrees that from the date hereof until the termination of this Agreement, Rise shall maintain errors and omissions and other customary insurance coverage in such amounts and with such carriers as determined by Rise, in its sole discretion. (c) In case any such claim, suit, action or proceeding (a “Claim”) is brought against any Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnification may be sought by such Indemnified Party pursuant hereto, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the indemnifying party; provided, however, that the failure of the Indemnified Party to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have hereunder, except to the extent such failure actually materially prejudices the indemnifying party. Upon receipt of such notice of Claim (together with such documents and information from such Indemnified Party), the indemnifying party shall, at its sole cost and expense, in good faith defend any such Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate but, subject to the next sentence, not control, the defense of any such action, with its own counsel and at its own expense. Such Indemnified Party may elect to conduct the defense of the Claim, if (i) such Indemnified Party reasonably determines that the conduct of its defense by the indemnifying party could be materially prejudicial to its interests, (ii) the indemnifying party refuses to assume such defense (or fails to give written notice to the Indemnified Party within ten (10) days of receipt of a notice of Claim that the indemnifying party assumes such defense), or (iii) the indemnifying party shall have failed, in such Indemnified Party’s reasonable judgment, to defend the Claim in good faith. The indemnifying party may settle any Claim against such Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party’s consent, provided, that (i) such settlement is without any Losses whatsoever to such Indemnified Party, (ii) the settlement does not include or require any admission of liability or culpability by such Indemnified Party and (iii) the indemnifying party obtains an effective written release of liability for such Indemnified Party from the party to the Claim with whom such settlement is being made, which release must be reasonably acceptable to such Indemnified Party, and a dismissal with prejudice with respect to all claims made by the party against such Indemnified Party in connection with such Claim. The applicable Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party’s sole cost and expense, in connection with the defense or settlement of any Claim in accordance with the terms hereof. If such Indemnified Party is entitled pursuant to this Section 7 to elect to defend such Claim by counsel of its own choosing and so elects, then the indemnifying party shall be responsible for any good faith settlement of such Claim entered into by such Indemnified Party. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, no Indemnified Party may pay or settle any Claim and seek reimbursement therefor under this Section 7. (d) The Manager acknowledges that the duties owed by Rise to the Manager are contractual in nature and governed by the terms of this Agreement and that Rise shall owe no fiduciary duties to the Manager or its members. (e) The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

(e) The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities of a Covered Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Member to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Covered Person. (f) The foregoing provisions of this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

• Limitations on Indemnification (a) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2, Seller shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any of Buyer Indemnified Parties on account of any Buyer Indemnified Losses under Section 7.2 unless the liability of Seller in respect of such Buyer Indemnified Loss, when aggregated with the liability of Seller in respect of all Buyer Indemnified Losses under Section 7.2, exceeds $250,000 (the “Threshold Amount”), in which event Buyer Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification from Seller in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Buyer Indemnified Losses. In no event shall the aggregate liability of Seller under Section 7.2 of this Agreement exceed $2,000,000 (the “Ceiling Amount”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Threshold Amount nor the Ceiling Amount shall be applicable to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(iii) or Section 7.2(iv) or with respect to the representations and warranties of Seller set forth in the first and second sentences of Section 3.2, Section 3.2(e), Section 3.8 and Section 3.10. Seller may satisfy any obligations arising pursuant to this Article 7 in any combination of cash or the surrender of Consideration Units for redemption (valued at $21.00 per Consideration Unit); provided that, Seller must provide written notice to Buyer of the intent to make a payment (in whole or in part) by surrendering Consideration Units for redemption at least five business days prior to the due date of any such payment. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.3, Buyer shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any of the Seller Indemnified Parties on account of any Seller Indemnified Loss under Section 7.3 unless the liability of Buyer in respect of such Seller Indemnified Loss, when aggregated with the liability of Buyer in respect of all Seller Indemnified Losses under Section 7.3, exceeds the Threshold Amount, in which event Seller Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to indemnification from Buyer in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the Seller Indemnified Losses exceed the Threshold Amount. In no event shall Buyer be liable under Section 7.3 of this Agreement for any amount in excess of the Ceiling Amount. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Threshold Amount nor the Ceiling Amount shall be applicable to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.3(iii) or Section 7.3(iv) or with respect the representations and warranties of Buyer set forth in Section 4.6. (c) The amount of indemnity claim hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any tax benefit actually realized by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or the Seller Indemnified Parties as a result of such claim. (d) The amount of any indemnity claim hereunder shall be reduced by the amount of any proceeds of insurance actually received by the Buyer Indemnified Parties or Seller Indemnified Parties, as the case may be, in connection with such claim; provided, however, the foregoing shall not bar any insurance company that has made any payment to a Buyer Indemnified Party or Seller Indemnified Party from pursuing its lawful rights to subrogation. (e) Except as set forth in Section 9.6(b), the parties agree that the indemnification provisions in this Article 7 shall be the exclusive remedy of the parties with respect to any claims between the parties concerning this Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements.
