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.
Limitation of Liability; Indemnity (a) Neither the Sole Member nor the Manager will be personally liable for monetary damages for any action taken as a member or manager, or for any failure to take any action, and neither the Sole Member nor the Manager shall be liable for any debts, obligations or liabilities of the Company whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise, solely by reason of being a member or manager. (b) The Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Sole Member and the Manager, and any of such party’s officers, directors, managers, employees, successors and assigns (each, an “Indemnified Party”) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law from and against any and all actual or alleged losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (collectively, “Damages”) of any nature whatsoever, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or in connection with any action taken or omitted by the Indemnified Party pursuant to authority granted by or otherwise in connection with this Agreement. Any indemnity under this Section shall be paid out of, and to the extent of, Company assets only, including insurance proceeds if available. (c) All expenses reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with a threatened or actual action or proceeding with respect to which such Indemnified Party is or may be entitled to indemnification under this Section shall be advanced or promptly reimbursed by the Company to such Indemnified Party in advance of the final disposition of such action or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party or on such Indemnified Party’s behalf to repay the amount of such advances, if any, as to which such Indemnified Party is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification or, where indemnification is granted, to the extent such advances exceed the indemnification to which such Indemnified Party is entitled. (d) No repeal or amendment of this Section, insofar as it reduces the extent of the indemnification of any person who could be an Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of such person, be effective as to such person with respect to any event, act or omission occurring or allegedly occurring prior to (a) the date of such repeal or amendment if on that date such Person is not serving in any capacity for which such Person could be an Indemnified Party or (b) the thirtieth (30th) day following delivery to such Person of written notice of such amendment as to any capacity in which such Person is serving on the date of such repeal or amendment for which such Person could be an Indemnified Party. No amendment of the LLC Law shall, insofar as it reduces the permissible extent of the right of indemnification of an Indemnified Party under this Section, be effective as to such Indemnified Party with respect to any event, act or omission occurring or allegedly occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment. This Section shall be binding on any successor to the Company, including any limited liability company, corporation or other entity which acquires all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. (e) The Company may, but need not, maintain insurance insuring the Company or persons entitled to indemnification under this Section for liabilities against which they are entitled to indemnification under this Section or insuring such persons for liabilities against which they are not entitled to indemnification under this Section. (f) The indemnification provided by this Section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which any person covered hereby may be entitled other than pursuant to this Section. The Company is authorized to enter into agreements with any such person or persons providing them rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses in addition to the provisions therefor in this Section to the full extent permitted by law. (g) The Company, in such instances and to such extent as shall be determined by the Manager, may indemnify and advance expenses to an employee or agent of the Company to the same extent and subject to the same conditions under which the Company may indemnify and advance expenses to the Sole Member and the Manager under this Section; and the Company may indemnify and advance expenses to persons who are not or were not employees or agents of the Company, but who are or were serving at the request of the Company as a manager, director, officer, partner, venturer, proprietor, trustee, employee, agent or similar functionary of another foreign or domestic limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in such a capacity or arising out of such person’s status as such a person to the same extent that the Company may indemnify and advance expenses to the Sole Member or the Manager under this Section.
Limitation on Liability The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.
Limitation of Liability; Indemnification (a) Funds Management shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, except a loss resulting from Funds Management’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence in the performance of its obligations and duties or that of its agents or sub-administrators, or by reason of its or their reckless disregard thereof. Any person, even though also an officer, director, employee or agent of Funds Management, 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 Funds Management’s duties as Administrator hereunder), to be acting solely for the Trust and not as an officer, director, employee, or agent or one under the control or discretion of Funds Management even though paid by it. (b) The Trust, on behalf of each Fund, will indemnify Funds Management against and hold it harmless from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) resulting from any claim, demand, action, or suit relating to the particular Fund and not resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence of Funds Management or its agents or sub-administrators in the performance of their obligations and duties hereunder, or by reason of its or their reckless disregard thereof. Funds Management will not confess any claim or settle or make any compromise in any instance in which the Trust will be asked to provide indemnification, except with the Trust’s prior written consent. Any amounts payable by the Trust under this Subparagraph shall be satisfied only against the assets of the Fund involved in the claim, demand, action, or suit and not against the assets of any other Fund. (c) Funds Management will indemnify the Trust against and hold it harmless from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) resulting from any claim, demand, action, or suit against the Trust or any Fund that resulted from a failure of Funds Management or its agents to act in accordance with the standard of care set forth in Subparagraph (a) above; provided that such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense did not result primarily from willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence of the Trust or its agents (other than Funds Management or agents of Funds Management) in the performance of their obligations and duties, or by reason of its or their reckless disregard thereof. The Trust will not confess any claim or settle or make any compromise in any instance in which Funds Management will be asked to provide indemnification, except with Funds Management’s prior written consent.
Limitation on Liabilities IF EITHER THE EXECUTIVE OR THE COMPANY IS AWARDED ANY DAMAGES AS COMPENSATION FOR ANY BREACH OR ACTION RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, A BREACH OF ANY COVENANT CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT (WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED BY EITHER LAW OR FACT), OR ANY OTHER CAUSE OF ACTION BASED IN WHOLE OR IN PART ON ANY BREACH OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT, SUCH DAMAGES SHALL BE LIMITED TO CONTRACTUAL DAMAGES AND SHALL EXCLUDE (I) PUNITIVE DAMAGES, AND (II) CONSEQUENTIAL AND/OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES (E.G., LOST PROFITS AND OTHER INDIRECT OR SPECULATIVE DAMAGES). THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF DAMAGES THAT THE EXECUTIVE MAY RECOVER FOR ANY REASON SHALL BE THE AMOUNT EQUAL TO ALL AMOUNTS OWED (BUT NOT YET PAID) TO THE EXECUTIVE PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT THROUGH ITS NATURAL TERM OR THROUGH ANY SEVERANCE PERIOD, PLUS INTEREST ON ANY DELAYED PAYMENT AT THE MAXIMUM RATE PER ANNUM ALLOWABLE BY APPLICABLE LAW FROM AND AFTER THE DATE(S) THAT SUCH PAYMENTS WERE DUE.
Indemnification and Limitation on Liability 1. Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless JPMS and its directors, officers, employees and affiliates from and against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities (including without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) arising out of or attributable to JPMS’s actions taken or not taken in compliance with this Sales Plan or arising out of or attributable to any breach by Seller of this Sales Plan (including Seller’s representations and warranties hereunder) or any violation by Seller of applicable laws or regulations. This indemnification shall survive termination of this Sales Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have no indemnification obligation to the extent any claims, losses, damages or liabilities are due to the gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of JPMS or any other indemnified person. 2. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, JPMS shall not be liable to Seller for: (a) special, indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages, or incidental losses or damages of any kind, even if advised of the possibility of such losses or damages or if such losses or damages could have been reasonably foreseen; or (b) any failure to perform or to cease performance or any delay in performance that results from a cause or circumstance that is beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to failure of electronic or mechanical equipment, strikes, failure of common carrier or utility systems, severe weather, market disruptions or other causes commonly known as “acts of God”.
Limitation on Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, the Company shall not be obligated pursuant to this Agreement:
Limits of Liability; Indemnification The Adviser assumes no responsibility under this Agreement other than to render the services called for hereunder. The Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or for any loss suffered by the Trust or the Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to receipt of compensation for services (in which case any award of damages shall be limited to the period and the amount set forth in Section 36(b)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940) or a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of, or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under, this Agreement. It is agreed that the Adviser shall have no responsibility or liability for the accuracy or completeness of the Trust's registration statement under the Act or the Securities Act of 1933, except for information supplied by the Adviser for inclusion therein. The Trust agrees to indemnify the Adviser to the full extent permitted by the Trust's Declaration of Trust.
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.
Limitations on Indemnification Obligations The rights of the Indemnified Parties to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b) are subject to the following provisions: (a) None of the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for any particular Loss pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) (except in the case of Fraud) unless such Loss equals or exceeds $10,000 (and no such Loss less than $10,000 shall be applied against the Deductible). (b) The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) (except in the case of Fraud) until the total amount which the Indemnified Parties would recover under Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i), as applicable, in the aggregate (as limited by the other provisions hereof), but for this Section 7.4(b), exceeds $1,192,500 (the “Deductible”), in which case the applicable Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to recover Losses in excess of such amount, subject to the other limitations herein. (c) Except, in each case, in the case of Fraud, (i) the maximum liability of Seller to the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any Losses of the Purchaser Indemnitees indemnifiable pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) shall not exceed $1,192,500 and (ii) the maximum liability of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, for indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this Article VII shall not exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price. (d) The amount of any and all Losses indemnifiable hereunder shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties under insurance policies (excluding, in the case of the Purchaser Indemnitees, the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy) or other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement) with respect to such Losses (which amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties shall be calculated, in each case, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery). In any case where a Purchaser Indemnitee actually recovers, under insurance policies (excluding, in the case of the Purchaser Indemnitees, the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy) or from other collateral sources, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was previously indemnified hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Responsible Party a refund equal to the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery), if and solely to the extent that such amount of recovery would have reduced the amount to which the Indemnified Party would have been entitled pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.4(d), but not in excess of the aggregate amount previously paid to the Indemnified Parties hereunder in respect of such matter. (e) The Purchaser Indemnitees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, to the extent available and subject to applicable retention and other coverage limitations thereunder, for any Losses for Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or for any Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) prior to seeking indemnification from Seller under this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 7.4(e) shall limit the Purchaser Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) to the extent that recovery is not available under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy for any reason with respect to all or any portion of such Losses. The amount of any and all indemnifiable Losses for Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or for any indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy with respect to such Losses (which amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties shall be calculated, in each case, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery). In any case where a Purchaser Indemnitee actually recovers under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was previously indemnified hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Responsible Party a refund equal to the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery), if and solely to the extent that such amount of recovery would have reduced the amount to which the Indemnified Party would have been entitled pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.4(e), but not in excess of the aggregate amount previously paid to the Indemnified Parties hereunder in respect of such matter; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall not be required to repay to Seller any amounts recovered under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy to the extent such repayment would, after taking into account the deductible and other limitations under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, have the effect of reducing the amount of indemnifiable Losses actually recovered by Purchaser with respect to such claim below the amount of indemnified Losses to which Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to recover from Seller pursuant to this Article VII, but for this Section 7.4(e). Purchaser covenants and agrees that the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy will expressly exclude any right of subrogation against the Seller Group (other than with respect to Fraud). (f) The Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for a Loss only once under Article VII even if a claim or claims for indemnification in respect of such Loss has been made as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement. (g) The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Loss to the extent such Loss was included in or otherwise expressly taken into account in the determination of the Aggregate Purchase Price. (h) The rights to indemnification of the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto (including by any of such party’s advisors or representatives) or by reason of the fact that such party or any of such advisors or representatives knew or should have known that any representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate. (i) For purposes of determining the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Article III or the Seller set forth in Article IV and in calculating the amount of any Losses attributable thereto, any “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” or similar qualifications in such representations and warranties shall be disregarded, except that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) the use of the term “Material Contract” in any representation or warranty or (ii) any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.4(a) or Section 3.6(a). (j) The Purchaser Indemnitees shall only be entitled to recover under this Article VII for any breach of any representations and warranties regarding Losses for Taxes with respect to taxable periods, or portions thereof, that end on or before the Closing Date, except to the extent such Losses arise from or are attributable to a breach of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.15(e), 3.15(k) or 3.15(l).
