In any event, the Administrator’s cumulative liability for each calendar year (a “Liability Period”) with respect to the services performed under this Agreement regardless of the form of action or legal theory shall be limited to its total annual compensation earned and fees payable hereunder during the preceding Compensation Period, as defined herein, for any liability or loss suffered by the Fund. “Compensation Period” shall mean the calendar year ending immediately prior to each Liability Period in which the event(s) giving rise to the Administrator’s liability for that period have occurred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Compensation Period for purposes of calculating the annual cumulative liability of the Administrator for the Liability Period commencing on the date of this Agreement and terminating on December 31, 2022 shall be the date of this Agreement through December 31, 2022, calculated on an annualized basis, and the Compensation Period for the Liability Period commencing January 1, 2023 and terminating on December 31, 2023 shall be the date of this Agreement through December 31, 2022, calculated on an annualized basis.

9.1.1Subject to Section 9.2 and Section 9.3, Confidential Information will not be disclosed by the Receiving Party to any third party without the prior consent of the Disclosing Party.

9.2Use of Confidential Information and Data

9.2.1Subject to this Section 9.2 and Section 9.3, all Confidential Information, including Data, will be used by the Receiving Party solely for the purpose of providing or receiving services, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise discharging its obligations under this Agreement.

9.2.2The Administrator and its Affiliates may use Data to develop, publish or otherwise distribute to third parties certain investor behaviour “indicators” or “indices” that represent broad trends in the flow of investment funds into various markets, sectors or investment instruments (collectively, the “Indicators”), but only so long as (i) the Data is combined or aggregated with (A) information relating to other customers of the Administrator and/or (B) information derived from other sources, in each case such that the Indicators do not allow for attribution to or identification of such Data with the Fund, (ii) the Data represents less than a statistically meaningful portion of all of the data used to create the Indicators and (iii) the

-6-

Administrator publishes or otherwise distributes to third parties only the Indicators and under no circumstance publishes, makes available, distributes or otherwise discloses any of the Data to any third party, whether aggregated, anonymized or otherwise, except as expressly permitted under this Agreement.

9.2.3The Fund acknowledges that the Administrator may seek and realize economic benefit from the publication or distribution of the Indicators.

9.3Disclosure of Confidential Information and Data

9.3.1The Receiving Party may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party’s consent to its attorneys, accountants, auditors, consultants and other similar advisors that have a reasonable need to know such Confidential Information (“Representatives”), provided such Confidential Information is disclosed under obligations of confidentiality that prohibit the disclosure or use of such Confidential Information by the Representatives for any purpose other than the specific engagement with the Receiving Party for which the Representative has been retained and that are otherwise no less restrictive than the confidentiality obligations contained in this Agreement. The Parties acknowledge that use of Confidential Information by a Representative to represent its other clients in dealing with the Disclosing Party would constitute a breach of this Section 24.3. Where the Administrator is the Receiving Party, “Representatives” will include its Affiliates and Service Providers (as defined below).

9.3.2The Administrator may disclose and permit use (as applicable) of Confidential Information of the Fund without the Fund’s consent:

9.3.2.2

to its Affiliates in connection with the management of the businesses of the Administrator and its Affiliates, including, but not limited to, financial and operational management and reporting, risk management, legal and regulatory compliance and client service management and marketing.

Where possible, such Confidential Information must be disclosed under obligations of confidentiality or in a manner consistent with industry practice.

9.3.3Each Party may store Confidential Information with third-party providers of information technology services, and permit access to Confidential Information by such providers as reasonably necessary for the receipt of cloud computing and storage services and

related hardware and software maintenance and support. Such Confidential Information must be disclosed under obligations of confidentiality.

9.3.5Each party acknowledges that the disclosure to any non-authorized third party of Confidential Information or the use of Confidential Information in breach of this Agreement, may immediately give rise to continuing irreparable injury inadequately compensable in damages at law, and in such cases the Receiving Party agrees to waive any defense that an adequate remedy at law is available if the Disclosing Party seeks to obtain injunctive relief against any such breach or any threatened breach.

9.3.6Each party will be responsible for any use or disclosure of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in breach of this Agreement by its Representatives as though such party had used or disclosed such Confidential Information itself

9.3.7In no event will the Administrator allow representatives of its asset management division or Affiliates engaged in asset management to have access to or to use Confidential Information of the Fund, including Data.
