In connection with Acquiror seeking a PIPE Investment, Acquiror and the Company shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, cooperate with each other and their respective Representatives in connection with such PIPE Investment and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause such PIPE Investment to occur (including having the Company’s senior management participate in any investor meetings and roadshows as reasonably requested by Acquiror).

(c) Acquiror shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by any Subscription Agreement to which it is a party on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect such Subscription Agreement and to use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to Acquiror in such Subscription Agreement and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (ii) confer with the Company regarding timing for delivery of any closing notice pursuant to such Subscription Agreement, and (iii) enforce its rights under such Subscription Agreement in the event that all conditions in such Subscription Agreement (other than conditions that Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, to cause the applicable PIPE Investor to pay to (or as directed by) Acquiror the consideration set forth in such Subscription Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated by such Subscription Agreement at or prior to Closing, in accordance with its terms. (d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Acquiror shall give the Company prompt written notice: (i) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement known to Acquiror; (ii) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential, threatened or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any provisions of any Subscription Agreement; (iii) of any amendment, waiver or modification to any Subscription Agreement entered into by Acquiror that such Party was permitted to make without the prior written consent of the Company in accordance with this Section 8.04(d), it being understood that such amendment, waiver or modification is not conditioned on delivery of such notice and (iv) if Acquiror does not expect to receive all or any portion of financing proceeds on the terms, in the manner or from the applicable PIPE Investors as contemplated by the Subscription Agreements.

The Custodian shall physically segregate, keep and maintain the Securities of the Series separate and apart from each other Series and from other assets held by the Custodian. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Custodian will not be responsible for any Securities and money not actually received by it, unless the Custodian has been negligent or has engaged in willful misconduct with respect thereto. The Custodian will be entitled to reverse any credits of money made on the Fund's behalf where such credits have been previously made and money are not finally collected, unless the Custodian has been negligent or has engaged in willful misconduct with respect thereto. The Fund shall deliver to the Custodian a certified resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto, approving, authorizing and instructing the Custodian on a continuous and on-going basis to deposit in the Book-Entry System all Securities eligible for deposit therein, regardless of the Series to which the same are specifically allocated and to utilize the Book-Entry System to the extent possible in connection with its performance hereunder, including, without limitation, in connection with settlements of purchases and sales of Securities, loans of Securities and deliveries and returns of Securities collateral. Prior to a deposit of Securities specifically allocated to a Series in any Depository, the Fund shall deliver to the Custodian a certified resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Fund, substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto, approving, authorizing and instructing the Custodian on a continuous and on-going basis until instructed to the contrary by a Certificate to deposit in such Depository all Securities specifically allocated to such Series eligible for deposit therein, and to utilize such Depository to the extent possible with respect to such Securities in connection with its performance hereunder, including, without limitation, in connection with settlements of purchases and sales of Securities, loans of Securities, and deliveries and returns of Securities collateral. Securities and money deposited in either the Book-Entry System or a Depository will be represented in accounts which include only assets held by the Custodian for customers, including, but not limited to, accounts in which the Custodian acts in a fiduciary or representative capacity and will be specifically allocated on the Custodian's books to the separate account for the applicable Series. Prior to the Custodian's accepting, utilizing and acting with respect to Clearing Member confirmations for Options and transactions in Options for a Series as provided in this Agreement, the Custodian shall have received a certified resolution of the Fund's Board of Trustees, substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, approving, authorizing and instructing the Custodian on a continuous and on-going basis, until instructed to the contrary by a Certificate, to accept, utilize and act in accordance with such confirmations as provided in this Agreement with respect to such Series. All securities are to be held or disposed of by the Custodian for, and subject at all times to the instructions of, the Fund pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The Custodian shall have no power or authority to assign, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Securities except as provided by the terms of this Agreement, and shall have the sole power to release and deliver Securities held pursuant to this Agreement. 2. The Custodian shall establish and maintain separate accounts, in the name of each Series, and shall credit to the separate account for each Series all money received by it for the account of the Fund with respect to such Series. Such money will be held in such manner and account as the Fund and the Custodian shall agree upon in writing from time to time. Money credited to a separate account for a Series shall be subject only to drafts, orders, or charges of the Custodian pursuant to this Agreement and shall be disbursed by the Custodian only: (a) As hereinafter provided; (b) Pursuant to Resolutions of the Fund's Board of Trustees certified by an Officer and by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Fund setting forth the name and address of the person to whom the payment is to be made, the Series account from which payment is to be made, the purpose for which payment is to be made, and declaring such purpose to be a proper corporate purpose; provided, however, that amounts representing dividends or distributions with respect to Shares shall be paid only to the Transfer Agent Account; (c) In payment of the fees and in reimbursement of the expenses and liabilities of the Custodian attributable to such Series and authorized by this Agreement; or (d) Pursuant to Certificates to pay interest, taxes, management fees or operating expenses (including, without limitation thereto, Board of Trustees' fees and expenses, and fees for legal accounting and auditing services), which Certificates set forth the name and address of the person to whom payment is to be made, state the purpose of such payment and designate the Series for whose account the payment is to be made. 3. Promptly after the close of business on each day, the Custodian shall furnish the Fund with confirmations and a summary, on a per Series basis, of all transfers to or from the account of the Fund for a Series, either hereunder or with any co-custodian or sub-custodian appointed in accordance with this Agreement during said day. Where Securities are transferred to the account of the Fund for a Series but held in a Depository, the Custodian shall upon such transfer also by book-entry or otherwise identify such Securities as belonging to such Series in a fungible bulk of Securities registered in the name of the Custodian (or its nominee) or shown on the Custodian's account on the books of the Book-Entry System or the Depository. At least monthly and from time to time, the Custodian shall furnish the Fund with a detailed statement, on a per Series basis, of the Securities and money held under this Agreement for the Fund. 4. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 7 of this Article and in Article VIII, all Securities held by the Custodian hereunder, which are issued or issuable only in bearer form, except such Securities as are held in the Book-Entry System, shall be held by the Custodian in that form; all other Securities held hereunder may be registered in the name of the Fund, in the name of any duly appointed registered nominee of the Custodian as the Custodian may from time to time determine, or in the name of the Book-Entry System or a Depository or their successor or successors, or their nominee or nominees. The Fund agrees to furnish to the Custodian appropriate instruments to enable the Custodian to hold or deliver in proper form for transfer, or to register in the name of its registered nominee or in the name of the Book-Entry System or a Depository any Securities which it may hold hereunder and which may from time to time be registered in the name of the Fund. The Custodian shall hold all such Securities specifically allocated to a Series which are not held in the Book-Entry System or in a Depository in a separate account in the name of such Series physically segregated at all times from those of any other person or persons. 5. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and unless otherwise instructed to the contrary by a Certificate, the Custodian by itself, or through the use of the Book-Entry System or a Depository with respect to Securities held hereunder and therein deposited, shall with respect to all Securities held for the Fund hereunder in accordance with preceding paragraph 4: (a) Promptly collect all income and dividends due or payable; (b) Promptly give notice to the Fund and promptly present for payment and collect the amount of money or other consideration payable upon such Securities which are called, but only if either (i) the Custodian receives a written notice of such call, or (ii) notice of such call appears in one or more of the publications listed in Appendix D annexed hereto, which may be amended at any time by the Custodian without the prior consent of the Fund, provided the Custodian gives prior notice of such amendment to the Fund; (c) Promptly present for payment and collect for the Fund's account the amount payable upon all Securities which mature; (d) Promptly surrender Securities in temporary form in exchange for definitive Securities; (e) Promptly execute, as custodian, any necessary declarations or certificates of ownership under the Federal Income Tax Laws or the laws or regulations of any other taxing authority now or hereafter in effect; (f) Hold directly, or through the Book-Entry System or the Depository with respect to Securities therein deposited, for the account of a Series, all rights and similar securities issued with respect to any Securities held by the Custodian for such Series hereunder; and (g) Promptly deliver to the Fund all notices, proxies, proxy soliciting materials, consents and other written information (including, without limitation, notices of tender offers and exchange offers, pendency of calls, maturities of Securities and expiration of rights) relating to Securities held pursuant to this Agreement which are actually received by the Custodian, such proxies and other similar materials to be executed by the registered holder (if Securities are registered otherwise than in the name of the Fund), but without indicating the manner in which proxies or consents are to be voted. 6. Upon receipt of a Certificate and not otherwise, the Custodian, directly or through the use of the Book-Entry System or the Depository, shall: (a) Promptly execute and deliver to such persons as may be designated in such Certificate proxies, consents, authorizations, and any other instruments whereby the authority of the Fund as owner of any Securities held hereunder for the Series specified in such Certificate may be exercised; (b) Promptly deliver any Securities held hereunder for the Series specified in such Certificate in exchange for other Securities or cash issued or paid in connection with the liquidation, reorganization, refinancing, merger, consolidation or recapitalization of any corporation, or the exercise of any right, warrant or conversion privilege and receive and hold hereunder specifically allocated to such Series any cash or other Securities received in exchange; (c) Promptly deliver any Securities held hereunder for the Series specified in such Certificate to any protective committee, reorganization committee or other person in connection with the reorganization, refinancing, merger, consolidation, recapitalization or sale of assets of any corporation, and receive and hold hereunder specifically allocated to such Series in exchange therefor such certificates of deposit, interim receipts or other instruments or documents as may be issued to it to evidence such delivery or such Securities as may be issued upon such delivery; and (d) Promptly present for payment and collect the amount payable upon Securities which may be called as specified in the Certificate. 7.

The Fund shall deliver to the Custodian such a Certificate no later than the business day preceding the availability of any such instrument or certificate. Prior to such availability, the Custodian shall comply with Section 17(f) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 in connection with the purchase, sale, settlement, closing-out or writing of Futures Contracts, Options, or Futures Contract Options by making payments or deliveries specified in Certificates in connection with any such purchase, sale, writing, settlement or closing-out upon its receipt from a broker, dealer, or futures commission merchant of a statement or confirmation reasonably believed by the Custodian to be in the form customarily used by brokers, dealers, or futures commission merchants with respect to such Futures Contracts, Options, or Futures Contract Options, as the case may be, confirming that such Security is held by such broker, dealer or futures commission merchant, in book-entry form or otherwise, in the name of the Custodian (or any nominee of the Custodian) as custodian for the Fund, provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, payments to or deliveries from the Margin Account and payments with respect to Securities to which a Margin Account relates, shall be made in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Margin Account Agreement. Whenever any such instruments or certificates are available, the Custodian shall, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, make payment for any Futures Contract, Option, or Futures Contract Option for which such instruments or such certificates are available only against the delivery to the Custodian of such instrument or such certificate, and deliver any Futures Contract, Option or Futures Contract Option for which such instruments or such certificates are available only against receipt by the Custodian of payment therefor.
