WHEREAS, AMGD desires to accept such appointment, and to serve as distributor and provide the services described in this Agreement in connection therewith; and
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

(a) The Fund hereby appoints AMGD as the exclusive distributor (“Distributor”) to introduce Affiliate and the Fund to Financial Intermediaries and other potential investors in connection with the Offering to “accredited investors” within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act (the “Investors”), in a manner consistent with the terms of the Prospectus.
(b) AMGD hereby accepts its appointment as distributor of the Fund to certain Financial Intermediaries and to potential Investors as described in Section 1(a). AMGD will act on a “best efforts” basis and is not obligated to sell any Units or to purchase any Units for its own account.

Affiliate also agrees to make available to Financial Intermediaries and to potential Investors additional material, data or other information relating to the Fund and Affiliate as they may reasonably request, provided that Affiliate possesses the same or is able to obtain it without expending unreasonable effort or incurring unreasonable expense, and provided that such information is not confidential information of Affiliate, the Fund or any third party such as an underlying portfolio fund or manager. The Fund will provide AMGD with copies of the Prospectus for AMGD’s review, distribution and files.
(d) The Fund and Affiliate will promptly forward to AMGD any non-routine communications received from any securities or other regulatory authority in any jurisdiction relating to the Offering, and promptly notify AMGD of any claim, action, suit or proceeding to which Affiliate or the Fund is made a party relating to the Offering. Similarly, AMGD will promptly forward to the Fund and Affiliate any such communication received by AMGD during such period and AMGD agrees to notify the Fund and Affiliate promptly of any such claim, action, suit or proceeding to which AMGD becomes a party relating to the Offering.
(e) AMGD will not conduct the Offering by means of any marketing materials or representations (including materials delivered electronically) unless such materials or representations have been previously approved by Affiliate or the Fund. In addition, Affiliate will not distribute any marketing materials that reference AMGD unless such materials have been previously approved by AMGD.

(g) AMGD shall not, directly or indirectly, pay or award any finder’s fees, commissions or other compensation to any Financial Intermediary engaged by an Investor for investment advice to induce such advisor to advise or recommend the purchase of Units; provided, however, the normal sales commissions payable to a registered broker-dealer or other properly licensed person for selling Units shall not be prohibited hereby. Except as set forth in this Agreement, AMGD shall not, in its capacity as Distributor, accept any direct or indirect compensation of any kind from any person or entity other than Affiliate or the Fund in connection with the Offering without the prior written consent of Affiliate.
(h) AMGD shall be responsible for ensuring that all selling activity by AMGD with Financial Intermediaries and potential Investors in the Fund is made solely by duly licensed registered representatives of AMGD. AMGD shall be responsible for supervising the activities of such representatives and ensuring their compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Affiliate will ensure that any selling activity by its personnel under this Agreement is conducted only by Affiliate personnel who are duly licensed registered representatives of AMGD.

(d) This Agreement may only be amended by a written agreement signed by the parties hereto and, with respect to the Fund, approved in the same manner as provided for the continuance of this Agreement in Section 8(a).
9. Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the provisions, policies or principles thereof relating to the choice or conflict of laws, provided that nothing herein shall be construed in a manner inconsistent with the 1940 Act or the Securities Act, or any rules, orders or interpretations of the SEC or its staff thereunder.
10. Forum for Adjudication of Disputes
Any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the services provided hereunder or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by any party hereto or its successors or assigns may be brought and determined only in the state courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the District of New York, and each party hereto submits with regard to any action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.
8
Each party hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to lawfully serve process, (b) that it or its property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.
11. Indemnification
(a) Each of the Fund, AMGD and Affiliate (each, for purposes hereof, an “Indemnitor”) hereby agrees to, and will, indemnify and hold harmless the others, the others’ affiliates (as such term is used in the 1940 Act), and the respective directors, officers, partners, members, agents and employees of the others and their affiliates (each of the foregoing, an “Indemnitee”) from and against any losses, claims, damages, judgments, assessments, costs and other liabilities (collectively, “Liabilities”), and will reimburse each Indemnitee for all fees and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in investigating, preparing, pursuing or defending any claim, action, proceeding or investigation (collectively, “Proceeding”), caused by or arising out of or in connection with (i) any material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of the Indemnitor (or any facts or circumstances constituting such breach) contained in this Agreement or (ii) the negligence, fraud or willful misconduct of the Indemnitor, in each case, except to the extent such Liabilities or such fees and expenses are caused by or arise out of or in connection with the Indemnitees’ negligence, fraud, willful misconduct or material breach of this Agreement.
(b) An Indemnitee seeking indemnification under this Section 11 will promptly notify the Indemnitor of its receipt of any notice of a Proceeding, provided, that the failure to furnish such notice will not relieve the Indemnitor of any liability under this Section 11 other than to the extent, if any, that the Indemnitor is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnitor may assume the defense of any Proceeding against the Indemnitee and, if it does so, will employ legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee may also employ separate counsel who may participate in the defense of the Proceeding (but shall not appear as counsel of record) at the Indemnitee’s sole expense; provided, however; that the Indemnitor will bear the expense of such separate counsel (but not more than one such counsel for all Indemnitees) if the Indemnitor fails to assume the defense of the Proceeding or in the event that the Indemnitor’s counsel would have a conflict of interest in representing both parties. No party may, without the written consent of the other parties, settle or compromise any Proceeding, unless the other parties are released unconditionally from all Liabilities arising out of such Proceeding.
(c) If any indemnification provided for under this Section 11 is unavailable or insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless, the Indemnitor will contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnitee in respect of any Liability for which such indemnification was sought in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits to the Indemnitee on the one hand, and the Indemnitor on the other, in connection with the Offering, but also the relative fault of the parties, as well as any equitable considerations.
9
12. Confidentiality
Each party hereby agrees to keep confidential any confidential information provided by any other party in connection with this Agreement, and not to use or disclose such information without the prior written consent of such other party.
13. Miscellaneous
(a) No member or any person other than the Fund, AMGD and Affiliate is a party to this Agreement or shall be entitled to any right or benefit arising under or in respect of this Agreement; there are no third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement is intended to, or shall be read to, (i) create in any member or person other than the Fund (including without limitation any member in the Fund) any direct, indirect, derivative or other rights against AMGD or Affiliate, or (ii) create or give rise to any duty or obligation on the part of AMGD or Affiliate (including without limitation any fiduciary duty) to any member or person other than the Fund, all of which rights, benefits, duties and obligations are hereby expressly excluded.
(b) This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the parties hereto and replaces and supersedes all other understandings, commitments and agreements relating to the subject matter hereof.

(e) If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be unenforceable the remaining provisions shall remain enforceable to the extent permissible.
(f) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement or any related document by facsimile transmission or by email with an attached copy of the executed agreement shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement or such related document.

No party has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility under this Agreement in favor of the other parties in this Agreement.
10
(h) The failure of any party to seek redress for violation, or to insist on strict performance, of any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall not prevent a subsequent act which would have constituted a violation from having the effect of an original violation.
