(c) The Adviser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust, each affiliated person of the Trust within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act, and each person who controls the Trust within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (any such person, an "Indemnified Party") against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (including the reasonable cost of investigating and defending any alleged loss, claim, damage, expense or liability and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) to which any such person may become subject under the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the 1940 Act or other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) a breach by the Adviser of this Agreement or of the representations and warranties made by the Adviser herein; (ii) any Improper Investment; (iii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Disclosure Document or the omission or alleged omission from a Disclosure Document of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; or (iv) the Adviser's performance or non-performance of its duties hereunder; provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed to protect any Indemnified Party who is a Trustee or officer of the Trust against any liability to the Trust or to its shareholders to which such Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason or willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of such person's office with the Trust.

Litigation; Compliance with Law Except as disclosed, there is no (i) action, suit, claim, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Company, at law or in equity, or before or by any municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign; (ii) arbitration proceeding relating to the Company pending under collective bargaining agreements or otherwise; or (iii) governmental inquiry pending or, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Company (including, without limitation, any inquiry as to the qualification of the Company to hold or receive any license or permit), and, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, there is no reasonable basis for any of the foregoing. The Company is not in default with respect to any governmental order, writ, judgment, injunction or decree known to or served upon the Company of any court or of any governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign.

The Company has complied in all respects with all laws, rules, regulations and orders applicable to its businesses, operations, properties, assets, products and services, and the Company has all necessary permits, licenses and other authorizations required to conduct its business as conducted and as proposed to be conducted, except to the extent failure to comply or obtain any such permits, licenses or authorizations will not have a material adverse effect. There is no existing law, rule, regulation or order, and the Company is not aware of any proposed law, rule, regulation or order, which would prohibit or materially restrict the Company from, or otherwise materially and adversely affect the Company in, conducting its business in any jurisdiction in which it is now conducting business or in which it proposes to conduct business.

Effect and invariability of the Clauses These Clauses set out appropriate safeguards, including enforceable data subject rights and effective legal remedies, pursuant to Article 46(1) and Article 46(2)(c) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and, with respect to data transfers from controllers to processors and/or processors to processors, standard contractual clauses pursuant to Article 28(7) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, provided they are not modified, except to select the appropriate Module(s) or to add or update information in the Appendix. This does not prevent the Parties from including the standard contractual clauses laid down in these Clauses in a wider contract and/or to add other clauses or additional safeguards, provided that they do not contradict, directly or indirectly, these Clauses or prejudice the fundamental rights or freedoms of data subjects.
Applicability of this Agreement The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to future investments made by investors of one Contracting Party in the territory of the other Contracting Party, and also to the investments existing in accordance with the laws of the Contracting Parties on the date this Agreement came into force. However, the provisions of this Agreement shall not apply to claims arising out of events which occurred, or to claims which had been settled, prior to its entry into force.

Nothing in this Section 5.1 shall require the Company to provide Parent or Acquisition Co. with any information relating to an Alternative Transaction Proposal.
