Fund Services shall promptly notify the Fund in writing of any breach of security, misuse or misappropriation of, or unauthorized access to, (in each case, whether actual or alleged) any Personal Information (any or all of the foregoing referred to individually and collectively for purposes of this provision as a “Security Breach”). Fund Services shall promptly investigate and remedy, and bear the cost of the measures (including notification to any affected parties), if any, to address any Security Breach.

12.

Data Necessary to Perform Services

The Fund or its agents shall furnish to Fund Services the data necessary to perform the services described herein at such times and in such form as mutually agreed upon.

The foregoing shall not affect USBFS’s responsibilities for compliance and related matters delegated to Fund Services by the Fund as expressly provided herein.
