XX Xxxxxx is authorized to act upon any instructions relating to your Account reasonably believed by XX Xxxxxx to have been given by a person (including officers, directors, employees or Investment Advisors acting for you) whom XX Xxxxxx reasonably believes has been authorized by you to give such instructions (each, an “Authorized Person”). XX Xxxxxx shall not be liable for acting in accordance with any such instruction; XX Xxxxxx has no duty to make any inquiry as to such Authorized Person’s actual authority. You are obligated to and will perform all your Obligations to, and Activities entered into with, XX Xxxxxx based upon instructions from an Authorized Person.

If either you or any Relevant Counterparty fails for any reason to settle the transaction and/or return any free delivery within a reasonable period of time, as determined by XX Xxxxxx, you will be solely liable to XX Xxxxxx for any and all loss, expenses or fail costs in connection therewith. XX Xxxxxx shall have no liability whatsoever to you in any such circumstance. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as imposing liability on any XX Xxxxxx Entity as a principal party in connection with any Clearing Transaction in which it is acting as agent and you shall not, under


				(MKL) Standard Form IAA 2017-02-15

any circumstance, represent to any third party broker or dealer or any other entity that any XX Xxxxxx Entity acts as a guarantor of any such Clearing Transaction.

(b) Ability to Complete Transactions. You will execute only bona-fide orders. If required for settlement, you will request a free delivery of cash or securities only when you have reasonable grounds to believe that the contra-party and the entity that executed your order have the financial capability to complete the contemplated transaction.

(c) Clearing Procedures and Timing. XX Xxxxxx will attempt to clear Clearing Transactions within a reasonable period as determined by it, and utilize the same procedures it utilizes when clearing transactions on behalf of other customers.

(d) Settlements of Hong Kong Securities.

Unless acting as executing broker or otherwise agreed, XX Xxxxxx in its capacity as prime broker does not have the authority to execute contract notes or act on your behalf in such transactions other than to perform the relevant settlement services. Even if XX Xxxxxx has agreed to make related filings on your behalf, you are responsible for attending to all stamp duty liabilities and other taxes and charges in respect of any transactions in Hong Kong securities. Where you give XX Xxxxxx an instruction to settle any transaction in Hong Kong securities on your behalf, you will be deemed to have confirmed to XX Xxxxxx at the time of the instruction, that all stamp duty obligations and liabilities have been met by you, unless you specifically request XX Xxxxxx’x services in writing in arranging for the payment of any applicable Hong Kong stamp duty.

12. SHORT AND LONG SALES; AUTHORITY TO BORROW.

(a) Designation. Where required by Applicable Laws, you will appropriately designate any sell orders as “short” or “long.” You agree that any sell order you designate as long shall be for securities you then own. If such securities cannot be delivered by XX Xxxxxx from your Accounts, the placing of such order shall constitute your representation that you will deliver them as soon as it is possible to do so, without undue inconvenience or expense to XX Xxxxxx.

(b) Authority to Borrow. If XX Xxxxxx is responsible for settling a short sale on your behalf, or if you fail to deliver any securities you have sold in a long sale, you authorize XX Xxxxxx to borrow the securities necessary to enable XX Xxxxxx to make delivery. You agree to be responsible for any cost or loss XX Xxxxxx may incur borrowing or maintaining the borrowing of such securities. In the event that XX Xxxxxx is unable to borrow or make delivery, you acknowledge that you will also be responsible of any resulting loss or cost sustained by XX Xxxxxx. You acknowledge that any such borrowing may be terminated or closed out at any time.

(c) Designation Discrepancies. Your executing broker may identify your sale as “short” or “long” in the trade information reported by it to XX Xxxxxx, and XX Xxxxxx may reconcile such information with the trade information reported to it by you. In order to enable XX Xxxxxx and your executing broker to comply with their obligations under Applicable Laws, you


				(MKL) Standard Form IAA 2017-02-15

acknowledge that XX Xxxxxx may advise your executing broker of any discrepancies between the trade information provided by your executing broker and the trade information provided by you.

(d) Threshold Securities. In order to enable XX Xxxxxx to comply with its obligations under Applicable Laws, XX Xxxxxx reserves the right to reject orders in Threshold Securities, as defined in Regulation SHO, in which XX Xxxxxx has aged fails in such securities.

(e) Substitute Dividend Payments. When income is paid in relation to any securities sold short on, or by reference to, an “ex-date” on which such short position remains open, XX Xxxxxx shall debit a sum of money or property from your account equivalent to the amount necessary to enable XX Xxxxxx to make the equivalent payment to its lender in relation to the applicable securities loan, together with such additional amounts as may be agreed by you and XX Xxxxxx.

13. OPTIONS TRANSACTIONS.

(a) Options Disclosures. In the event you purchase or write (i.e., sell) listed options, you hereby agree and acknowledge the following:

(i) all options transactions shall be subject to the constitution, rules, regulations, customs and usages of the Options Clearing Corporation and any exchange or other marketplace where executed;

A more detailed description of such random allocation procedure is available upon request.


				(MKL) Standard Form IAA 2017-02-15

You understand that XX Xxxxxx is required by Applicable Laws, including but not limited to FINRA Rule 2360, to obtain from you certain information regarding your investment objectives and financial situation in order to determine that options transactions are not unsuitable for you and you hereby agree to provide XX Xxxxxx with all information required to allow XX Xxxxxx to make such determination.

You hereby authorize XX Xxxxxx to liquidate or close-out any of your positions or exercise any other remedy in XX Xxxxxx’x sole discretion, without notice to you, if at any time, you exceed any applicable position or exercise limits. You shall be solely liable for any losses associated with such liquidation or close-out.

14. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION.

For the avoidance of doubt, your indemnity for claims as described above includes claims asserted by third party brokers or dealers in connection with Clearing Transactions (including XX Xxxxxx’x right to refuse to enter into a Clearing Transaction for you). Whether or not demand has been made, you authorize XX Xxxxxx to debit any of your accounts for any and all such Costs.

15. AGENTS; SUB-CUSTODIANS.

(a) Employment of Agents. JPMS may employ agents or subcontractors in the performance of its Obligations under this Agreement. The appointment of any such agent or subcontractor pursuant to this Section 15(a) shall not relieve JPMS of any of its Obligations under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Depository shall be considered an agent or subcontractor of JPMS and JPMS shall have no liability for any loss or damage arising

out of the insolvency, acts or omissions of any Depository used by it or one of its agents, subcontractors or sub-custodians.

(b) Appointment of Sub-custodians. JPMS may appoint sub-custodians, including JPM Affiliates, of assets held by or through your Accounts. JPMS will exercise reasonable skill, care and diligence in the selection of any such sub-custodian and will be responsible to you for satisfying itself as to the ongoing suitability of such sub-custodian to provide custodial services, will maintain an appropriate level of supervision over such sub-custodian and will make appropriate inquiries periodically to confirm that the obligations of such sub-custodian continue to be competently discharged. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, JPMS will be liable only for loss or damage (subject to the limitations in Section 14 above) arising out of the insolvency, acts or omissions of any sub-custodian appointed by it that is a JPM Affiliate, but shall not be liable for any such loss or damage arising out of the insolvency, acts or omissions of any sub-custodian appointed by it that is not a JPM Affiliate, provided that JPMS has complied with its undertakings in the preceding sentence.

16. REHYPOTHECATION.

(a) Use. Unless prohibited by Applicable Laws, you expressly authorize JPMS (i) to hold and register any Securities which constitute Margin hereunder in the name of JPMS or in another name other than your name, (ii) to pledge, repledged, hypothecate, rehypothecate, sell, lend or otherwise transfer or use any amount of the securities which constitute Margin hereunder (collectively with any of the uses described in clause (i), “Used”) either separately or in common with other property for any amounts due to JPMS thereon, and for a greater sum than, and for periods longer than, your Obligations, and XX Xxxxxx shall have no obligation to retain a like amount of similar property in its possession and control, and (iii) to use or invest cash Margin at its own risk.

(b) Rights of Ownership. You acknowledge that, with respect to Securities Used by JPMS (i) in certain circumstances you may not be able to exercise voting and other attendant rights of ownership, (ii) rather than a dividend you may receive a payment which will not be eligible for the preferential tax rate or treatment which may apply to dividends and (iii) JPMS may receive and retain certain benefits (e.g., payments) to which you will not be entitled. Other than as specifically described in this Section 16, no such Use shall limit JPMS’s Obligations to you hereunder.

17. TERMINATION; SURVIVAL; SUCCESSORS. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon 30 days’ prior written notice; provided, however, that your termination of this Agreement shall not be effective until you have fully satisfied your Obligations. Your indemnity under Section 14 shall survive termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall extend to and be binding upon all of the parties (whether now existing or hereafter added) and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

18. AMENDMENT. XX Xxxxxx may modify the terms of this Agreement at any time upon prior written notice to you to the extent that such modification is required by Applicable Law. This Agreement may not be waived or modified absent a written instrument signed by an authorized representative of XX Xxxxxx.

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 20 ARE APPLICABLE ONLY TO ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS ELIGIBLE FOR ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO FINRA RULE 10101 AND/OR THE RULES OF THE NYSE AS ADOPTED BY FINRA.

The parties intend to have any such application for a provisional remedy decided by the Court to which it is made and that such application shall not be referred to or settled by arbitration. No such application for a provisional remedy, nor any act or conduct by either party in furtherance of or in opposition to such application, shall constitute a relinquishment or waiver of any right to have the underlying dispute or controversy with respect to which such application is made settled by arbitration in accordance with paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

21. OTHER AGREEMENTS. The provisions of this Agreement shall amend and restate and supersede any prior Institutional Account Agreement or Professional Account Agreement entered into by and between you and XX Xxxxxx.

You understand that XX Xxxxxx is required by such AML and Sanctions Laws to obtain certain identification documents or other information in order to comply with its customer identification procedures and you acknowledge that until you provide the required information or documents, XX Xxxxxx may not be able to open or maintain accounts or effect any transactions for you. You hereby acknowledge and agree that you will not use your accounts in a manner that may cause a violation of AML and Sanctions Laws.

(b) Brokerage Account Mechanics-Impartial Lottery Allocation; Proxies and Related Material; Documentation as a Condition Precedent to the Transfer of Securities; and Disclosure to Issuers of Securities and Other Persons. The following shall apply to brokerage accounts maintained for you by XX Xxxxxx and the securities credited thereto.

(i) In the event XX Xxxxxx holds on your behalf bonds or preferred stocks in street name or bearer form which are callable in part, you agree that you will participate in the impartial lottery allocation system of the called securities in accordance with FINRA rules, or if not applicable, any other appropriate self-regulatory organization. When any such call is favorable, no allocation will be made to any account with respect to which XX Xxxxxx has actual knowledge that an officer, director or employee of a JPM Affiliate has any financial interest until all other customers are satisfied on an impartial lottery basis.

(ii) You hereby appoint each investment adviser specified in the Proxy and Related Material Delivery Chart (each, a “Proxy Agent”) to receive and act upon Proxy and Related Material related to the account specified opposite such Proxy Agent’s name on such chart (such account referred to herein as such Proxy Agent’s, “Proxied Account”) and you hereby instruct XX Xxxxxx to deliver all Proxy and Related Material for each Proxied Account to the Proxy Agent appointed therefor at the mailing address specified opposite such Proxy Agent’s name on such chart and to accept instructions related to such Proxy and Related Material from such Proxy Agent. If no Proxy Agent is appointed for an account, then all Proxy and Related Material will be delivered to you in accordance with Section 25(e). In connection with the foregoing appointment and instruction, if you have appointed a Proxy Agent, you acknowledge that (i) only one copy of Proxy and Related Material is available for distribution and accordingly you will receive such materials through your Proxy Agent and you will not receive a copy thereof and (ii) notwithstanding such appointment, material related to the reorganization of the capitalization of any issuer of securities credited to a Proxied Account will be delivered to you in accordance with Section 25(e) rather than through your Proxy Agent.

(iii) You will provide us with any necessary documentation (including prospectuses and opinions) in order to satisfy legal transfer requirements, in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(iv) You hereby instruct XX Xxxxxx not to disclose your name, address or holdings in securities to an issuer of common stock credited to your account who requests such information from XX Xxxxxx. You acknowledge that pursuant to Applicable Law,


				(MKL) Standard Form IAA 2017-02-15

(c) No Waiver. Neither XX Xxxxxx’x failure to insist at any time upon strict compliance with this Agreement or with any of the terms hereof, nor any continued course of such conduct on its part, shall constitute or be considered a waiver by XX Xxxxxx of any of its rights or privileges hereunder. For the avoidance of doubt, XX Xxxxxx may provide notices to you that it is not required to provide to you and may refrain from making Margin calls or otherwise insisting on strict performance of your Obligations, and you acknowledge and agree that no such conduct shall constitute, or be relied upon by you as constituting, a waiver of XX Xxxxxx’x rights to strict performance of all agreements with you or as imposing any obligation on XX Xxxxxx not contained in any agreement with you. No demands, calls, tenders or notices that XX Xxxxxx may have made or given in the past in any one or more instances shall constitute a requirement that XX Xxxxxx make or give the same in the future.

(d) Assignment. Any assignment of your rights and Obligations without obtaining the prior written consent of an authorized representative of XX Xxxxxx shall be null and void. Each XX Xxxxxx Entity shall have the right to assign all of its rights and Obligations to any other XX Xxxxxx Entity without prior notice to you, or to any third party if part of a general transfer of the prime brokerage business by XX Xxxxxx to such third party, with such notice as required under Applicable Law.

(f) Force Majeure. In no event shall JPMS be liable for (i) any cost, damages or delay caused, directly or indirectly, by war, acts of terrorism, riots, civil commotion, strikes, labor disputes, government acts, laws or regulations, exchange or market rulings, suspension of trading, embargoes, natural disasters, electrical failures, telephone communication line failures, computer failures, unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank wire or telex or otherwise or communication facility or otherwise or any other cause of contingency to the extent beyond XX Xxxxxx’x control that may prevent or delay the performance of any JPMS’s Obligations (an “Extraordinary Event”); or (ii) any damages caused, directly or indirectly, by your executing broker, by erroneous information received from you or by your failure to deliver instructions, including a failure which results in a lack of position or a failure to exercise rights on your behalf. In the event of an Extraordinary Event that may prevent or delay the performance of any of JPMS’s Obligations, the performance of JPMS’s Obligations shall be excused for the period of the delay and XX Xxxxxx will in no event be liable for any loss, liability, damage, claim, cost or expense (including fees and expenses of legal counsel) arising from such delay or non-performance.

You authorize XX Xxxxxx and, if applicable, your broker, in its or their discretion, to make and obtain reports concerning your credit standing and business conduct. You may make a written request within a reasonable period of time for a description of the nature and scope of the reports made or the information received by a XX Xxxxxx Entity pursuant to the foregoing authorization. You acknowledge that JPM Affiliates share many computer systems and employees, and also share information concerning their respective customers for the purpose of monitoring and approving credit, legal, regulatory and underwriting exposures and administration of the customer’s accounts with and transactions with or through any JPM Affiliate. Such information will be treated by each JPM Affiliate pursuant to its policies and procedures designed to protect the confidentiality and security of customer information and to ensure that such information is used only in a manner that is consistent with Applicable Laws.

(h) GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY CHOICE OF LAW RULES THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

(i) Severability. If any provision hereof is or should become inconsistent with any present or future law, rule or regulation of any sovereign government or regulatory body having jurisdiction over the subject matter of this Agreement, such provision shall be deemed to be rescinded or modified in accordance with any such law, rule or regulation. In all other respects, this Agreement shall continue to remain in full force and effect.

				(MKL) Standard Form IAA 2017-02-15

(k) Construction. References to times in this Agreement are to the prevailing time in New York City. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation.” Unless otherwise expressly provided, any time XX Xxxxxx is authorized or entitled to take any action, refrain from taking any action or make any determination, it may do so in its sole discretion, exercised in good faith. The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.

(l) Recording. For the protection of the parties, and as a way of correcting misunderstandings, you authorize XX Xxxxxx, at its discretion and without prior notice to you, to monitor and/or record any or all telephone conversations between you and any of XX Xxxxxx’x employees or agents which may be used in connection with any dispute between the parties or in any other way related to this Agreement.

(m) Right to Decline or Set Limits. Nothing in this Agreement obligates XX Xxxxxx to enter into any Activity with you, including but not limited to Clearing Transactions, notwithstanding past practice or market custom. Rather, XX Xxxxxx may (i) decline to execute, clear or settle any Clearing Transaction and (ii) decline to enter into, execute, extend, renew or “roll over” any other Activity with you, including any Activity done on an “open” or “demand” basis. Such a declination, in and of itself, shall not operate as a termination of this Agreement. XX Xxxxxx may, at any time, place a limit (expressed in dollars, positions, or number of units) on the size of transactions that XX Xxxxxx will accept for execution, clearance and/or settlement.

(n) Performance. Each Activity hereunder has been entered into in consideration of each other Activity hereunder and, unless otherwise determined by XX Xxxxxx, (i) your performance of each and every one of your Obligations when due is a condition precedent to XX Xxxxxx’x performance of its Obligations to you and (ii) the Obligation of each XX Xxxxxx Entity to you shall be suspended and shall not mature until you have paid and performed in full all of your Obligations when due to each XX Xxxxxx Entity.

(o) Netting Contract. It is understood that this Agreement constitutes a “netting contract” and each payment entitlement and payment obligation under any Activity hereunder shall constitute a “covered contractual payment entitlement” or “covered contractual payment obligation”, respectively (except insofar as one or both of the parties is not a “financial institution” as that term is defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991).

(p) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(q) Facsimiles or PDFs. Receipt of a facsimile or pdf copy hereof or of any writing delivered in connection herewith shall have the same force and effect as receipt of the original executed copy thereof.

The terms and conditions hereof (this “Supplement”) shall supplement and become part of the Institutional Account Agreement (the “IAA”) to which this Supplement is attached. This Supplement shall apply to Activities that are processed and cleared in a FIC PB Account (“Fixed Income Clearing Transactions”) but shall not apply to Activities that are processed and cleared in an Equity PB Account. Capitalized terms used without definition herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the IAA. Each Fixed Income Clearing Transaction shall be deemed a Clearing Transaction. In the event of any inconsistency between any term or provision contained in this Supplement and any term or provision contained in the IAA, the relevant term or provision contained in this Supplement shall govern solely to the extent of such inconsistency. Except as provided herein, all other terms of the IAA shall continue in full force and effect.

1. Fixed Income Clearance; Trade Reporting and Processing. It is agreed that you shall be the party in interest for each Fixed Income Clearing Transaction entered into with your trading counterparties (“Executing Counterparty or Counterparties”), and you shall bear any and all risks and costs related to such Fixed Income Clearing Transaction, including non-performance by an Executing Counterparty. Furthermore, you agree that you shall timely provide to XX Xxxxxx any securities or money required for XX Xxxxxx to complete such transaction and to satisfy any demand for margin made by an Executing Counterparty or XX Xxxxxx in respect of a Fixed Income Clearing Transaction.

You agree to report the Trade Details (as defined below) of all Fixed Income Clearing Transactions excluding same day settlement transactions) by 6:00 p.m. on the trade date. XX Xxxxxx may decline Fixed Income Clearing Transactions reported after such times. Fixed Income Clearing Transactions reported after 6:00 p.m. may be processed the next business day. You agree to be responsible for any costs associated with any fail resulting from late reporting, which may include a one-day, 50-basis-point surcharge to finance the Fixed Income Clearing Transaction and a $100 late fee.

XX Xxxxxx may, at any time, place a limit (expressed in dollars, positions, or number of units) on the size of transactions that XX Xxxxxx will accept for clearance and/or settlement. XX Xxxxxx may by notice to you, which may be provided orally, require you immediately to liquidate or otherwise reduce, reverse or hedge a position or account to reduce the amount of your Obligations or XX Xxxxxx’x obligations to third parties or otherwise mitigate risk, and you hereby authorize XX Xxxxxx to take such action on your behalf for your account and risk if you fail to comply with XX Xxxxxx’x request.

2. Repurchase, Reverse Repurchase, Buy/Sell Back, Sell/Buy Back Transactions or Securities Lending with Third Parties. If you request that XX Xxxxxx clear and settle repurchase transactions and/or reverse repurchase transactions that you may execute with third parties, you agree that: (a) each such repurchase and/or reverse repurchase transaction shall be deemed a Clearing Transaction, (b) you will notify XX Xxxxxx of the Trade Details (as defined below) of the repurchase and/or reverse repurchase transactions in the Federal Reserve Bank or

SUPPLEMENT TO INSTITUTIONAL ACCOUNT AGREEMENT

REGARDING PRIME BROKERAGE SERVICES

The terms and conditions hereof (this “Supplement”) shall supplement, become part of, and be subject to, the Institutional Account Agreement (the “IAA”) to which it is attached. This Supplement sets forth additional terms and conditions under which XX Xxxxxx will provide prime brokerage services for your accounts that are processed and cleared in an Equity PB Account. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else contained in this Supplement, this Supplement shall not apply to Activities that constitute clearance services to you for transactions executed away from XX Xxxxxx involving securities that are processed and cleared in a FIC PB Account (“Fixed Income Clearing Transactions”). Each transaction hereunder shall be deemed a “Clearing Transaction”, as defined in the IAA. All defined terms in the IAA shall have the same meanings herein as they have in the IAA. In the event of any inconsistency between any term or provision contained in this Supplement and any term or provision contained in the IAA, the relevant term or provision contained in this Supplement shall govern solely to the extent of such inconsistency. Except as provided herein, all other terms of the IAA shall continue in full force and effect. The prime brokerage services hereunder shall be provided in a manner not inconsistent with the no-action letter dated January 25, 1994 issued by the Division of Market Regulation of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC Letter”), as amended or supplemented.

1. Prior to the commencement of any prime brokerage activity, XX Xxxxxx will enter into an agreement with the executing broker you have designated which will set forth the terms and conditions under which your executing broker will be authorized to accept orders from you for settlement by XX Xxxxxx (each, a “PB Agreement”). Thereafter XX Xxxxxx will enter into PB Agreements with any additional executing brokers you designate to it from time to time. XX Xxxxxx will accept for clearance and settlement trades executed on your behalf by your executing broker with which it has executed a PB Agreement with respect to you. On the day following each transaction, XX Xxxxxx will send you a notification of each trade placed with your executing broker based upon the information provided by you. This notification contains some but not all of the information required to appear in a confirmation. Your executing broker is responsible for delivering to you a confirmation of each trade executed and settled on your behalf.

2. XX Xxxxxx may become obligated to settle trades executed on your behalf by your executing broker and reported to XX Xxxxxx by you and your executing broker, provided that you have reported to XX Xxxxxx promptly upon execution of the trade, but in no event later than 5:30 p.m. (New York time) on the trade date, or by such other time as XX Xxxxxx may advise you, all the details of such trades including the contract amount, the security involved, the number of shares or the number of units and whether the transaction was a long, or a short sale or a purchase, and further provided that XX Xxxxxx has not “DK’d” (“indicated it does not know”) or has not subsequently disaffirmed such trades. If XX Xxxxxx becomes obligated to settle a trade, you shall be responsible and liable to XX Xxxxxx for making the settlement payment (including the delivery of applicable securities) with respect to each such trade. If XX Xxxxxx determines not to settle a trade, XX Xxxxxx shall send you a cancellation notification to offset the notification sent to you under Section 1 of this Supplement whereupon you shall be solely

PBS-1


(v.2) Form # 0000		JPM Standard Form
01010		Prime Broker Supplement to IAA (2017-02-15)

responsible and liable to your executing broker for settling such trade and XX Xxxxxx shall not have settlement responsibility for such trade. In addition, XX Xxxxxx may be required to cease providing prime brokerage services to you in accordance with the PB Agreement.

3. If (a) (i) an insolvency, bankruptcy, or similar proceeding occurs in respect of your executing broker, (ii) your executing broker’s registration is terminated or it ceases to do business as a broker-dealer, or (iii) your executing broker fails, refuses or is unable, for any reason or for no reason, to settle a trade, and (b) XX Xxxxxx agrees to settle any trades executed on your behalf by such executing broker, regardless whether XX Xxxxxx did not DK and did not disaffirm such trades, then you shall be solely responsible, and liable to XX Xxxxxx, for any losses, costs or expenses arising out of or incurred in connection with XX Xxxxxx’x agreement to settle such trades.

4. You shall maintain in your account with XX Xxxxxx such minimum net equity in cash or securities as XX Xxxxxx may require, from time to time (the “XX Xxxxxx Net Equity Requirements”), which shall in no event be less than the minimum net equity required by the SEC Letter (the “SEC Net Equity Requirements”). In the event your account falls below the SEC Net Equity Requirements, you hereby authorize XX Xxxxxx to notify promptly all executing brokers with whom it has a PB Agreement on your behalf of such event. Moreover, if you fail to restore your account to compliance with the SEC Net Equity Requirements within the time specified in the SEC Letter, XX Xxxxxx shall: (a) notify all such executing brokers that XX Xxxxxx is no longer acting as your prime broker and (b) “DK” all prime brokerage transactions on your behalf with trade date after the business day on which such notification was sent. In the event either: (a) your account falls below the XX Xxxxxx Net Equity Requirements, (b) XX Xxxxxx determines that there would not be enough cash in your account to settle such transactions or that a maintenance margin call may be required as a result of settling such transactions, or (c) XX Xxxxxx determines that the continuation of prime brokerage services to you presents an unacceptable risk to XX Xxxxxx taking into consideration all the facts and circumstances, XX Xxxxxx may disaffirm all your prime brokerage transactions and/or cease to act as your prime broker.

5. If you have instructed your executing broker to send confirmations to you in care of XX Xxxxxx, as your prime broker, the confirmation sent by such executing broker is available to you promptly from XX Xxxxxx, at no additional charge.

6. If your account is managed on a discretionary basis, you hereby acknowledge that your prime brokerage transactions may be aggregated with those of other accounts of your advisor, according to your advisor’s instructions, for execution by your executing brokers in a single bulk trade and for settlement in bulk by XX Xxxxxx. You hereby authorize XX Xxxxxx to disclose your name, address and tax ID number to your executing brokers. In the event any trade is disaffirmed, as soon as practicable thereafter, XX Xxxxxx shall supply your executing brokers with the allocation of the bulk trade, based upon information provided by your advisor.
