Each party shall be liable for any damages, losses or costs arising out of such party’s failure to perform its duties under this Agreement to the extent such damages, losses or costs arise out of its willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder.

A copy of the Fund’s formation document is on file with the Secretary of State (or equivalent authority) of the state in which the Fund is organized, and notice is hereby given that this instrument is executed on behalf of the Fund and not the Directors or Trustees (as applicable) of the Fund individually and that the obligations of this instrument are not binding upon any of the Directors, Trustees, officers or shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Fund, and Ultimus shall look only to the assets of the Fund for the satisfaction of such obligations.

Xxxxxxx shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any officer, agent, representative or employee of the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser or any of the Fund’s other service providers until receipt of written notice thereof from the Fund. As used in this Agreement, the term “investment adviser” includes all sub-advisers or persons performing similar services.

The Board has and retains primary responsibility for oversight of all compliance matters relating to the Fund, including, but not limited to, compliance with the Investment Company Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the policies and limitations of the Fund relating to the portfolio investments as set forth in the prospectus and statement of additional information. Ultimus’ monitoring and other functions hereunder shall not relieve the Board of its primary day-to-day responsibility for overseeing such compliance.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Fund agrees to limit Ultimus’ liability for the Fund’s Losses (as defined below) to an amount that shall not exceed the total compensation received by Ultimus under this Agreement during the most recent rolling 12-month period or the actual time period this Agreement has been in effect if less than 12 months. This limitation shall apply regardless of the cause of action or legal theory asserted.

In no event shall Ultimus be liable for trading losses, lost revenues, special, incidental, punitive, indirect, consequential or exemplary damages or lost profits, whether or not such damages were foreseeable or Xxxxxxx was advised of the possibility thereof. Xxxxxxx shall not be liable for any corrupt, faulty or inaccurate data provided to Ultimus by any third-parties for use in delivering Ultimus’ Services to the Fund and Ultimus shall have no duty to independently verify and confirm the accuracy of third-party data. The parties acknowledge that the other parts of this Agreement are premised upon the limitation stated in this section.

10.3.

Indemnification

Each party (the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify, defend, and protect the other party, including its trustees, directors, managers, officers, employees, and other agents (collectively, the “Indemnitees” and each an “Indemnitee”), and shall hold the Indemnitees harmless from and against any actions, suits, claims, losses, damages, liabilities, and reasonable costs, charges, and expenses (including attorney fees and investigation expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of (1) the Indemnifying Party’s failure to exercise the standard of care set forth above unless such Losses were caused in part by the Indemnitees own willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence; (2) any violation of Applicable Law (defined below) by the Indemnifying Party or its affiliated persons or agents relating to this Agreement and the activities thereunder; and (3) any material breach by the Indemnifying Party or its affiliated persons or agents of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, the Fund shall indemnify Ultimus for Ultimus’ Losses arising from circumstances under Section 10.2.A.

Upon the assertion of a claim for which either party may be required to indemnify the other, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of such assertion, and shall keep the Indemnifying Party advised with respect to all developments concerning such claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Indemnitee to timely notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

The Indemnifying Party shall have the option to participate with the Indemnitee in the defense of such claim or to defend against said claim in its own name or in the name of the Indemnitee. The Indemnitee shall in no case confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the Indemnifying Party may be required to indemnify the Indemnitee except with the Indemnifying Party’s prior written consent.

The provisions of this Section 10 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
