4.1Commissions, Managing Dealer Fees and Distribution and Shareholder Servicing Fee.

(a)Except as may be provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer, as compensation for all services to be rendered by the Managing Dealer pursuant to this Agreement, a commission of six percent (6.0%) of the gross proceeds from the completed sales of Class A Shares in the Primary Offering, and three percent (3.0%) of the gross proceeds from the completed sales of Class T Shares in the Primary Offering, regardless of whether such Shares are sold by the Managing Dealer or a Participating Broker. The Company will not pay commissions for sales of Class A or Class T Shares pursuant to the Distribution Reinvestment Plan, and will not pay commissions for sales of any Class D or Class I Shares in the Primary Offering or pursuant to the Distribution Reinvestment Plan. The Company may pay reduced commissions or eliminate commissions on certain sales of Shares in accordance with, and on the terms set forth in, the Prospectus and Section 4.2(a) and 4.2(b) herein, which reduction or elimination of commissions will not change the net proceeds to the Company. Such commission rate shall remain in effect during the full term of this Agreement unless

- 4 -

otherwise changed by a written agreement between the parties hereto. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or any portion of such selling commissions to Distribution Participants in its sole discretion in compliance with applicable law.

(b)Except as may be provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, which may be amended and supplemented from time to time, the Company shall pay to the Managing Dealer a dealer manager fee for assistance in selling and marketing the Shares of two and one-half percent (2.5%) of the gross proceeds from the completed sales of Class A Shares in the Primary Offering and a dealer manager fee for assistance in selling and marketing the Shares of one and three-fourths percent (1.75%) of the gross proceeds from the completed sales of Class T Shares in the Primary Offering. The Company will not pay a dealer manager fee for sales of Class A or Class T Shares pursuant to the Distribution Reinvestment Plan, and will not pay a dealer manager fee for sales of any Class D or Class I Shares in the Primary Offering or pursuant to the Distribution Reinvestment Plan. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or any portion of this dealer manager fee for each Share sold by a Distribution Participant that agrees to comply with one or more of the following conditions:

(i)have and use internal marketing support personnel (such as telemarketers or a marketing director) to assist the Managing Dealer’s marketing team;

(ii)have and use internal marketing communications vehicles, including, but not limited to, newsletters, conference calls, interactive technology and internal mail to promote the Company and this Offering;

(iv)assist investors with reinvestments and redemptions;

(v)maintain the technology necessary to adequately service investors as otherwise associated with the Offering; and

(vi)provide other services as requested by investors from time to time.

(c)Except as may be provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the Company will pay to the Managing Dealer an annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee in connection with sales of Class T Shares and Class D Shares in this Offering during the term of this Agreement, subject to the limitations set forth below. The annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee of 1.0% per annum and 0.50% per annum of the then-current Primary Offering price (or, once reported, the amount of the estimated net asset value per Share) per Class T Share and Class D Share, respectively, will accrue daily and be paid to the Managing Dealer monthly in arrears, as provided in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus. For Class T Shares and Class D Shares, the Managing Dealer agrees to provide oversight services related to administration of the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee, which may include oversight of the Company’s Transfer Agent, tracking underwriting compensation consistent with applicable regulatory limits, and assistance with shareholder share conversions. The Managing Dealer may reallow all or a portion of the distribution and shareholder servicing fee to one or more Distribution Participants or broker-dealers providing services with respect to the Class T Shares or Class D Shares, in its sole discretion, to the extent a Distribution Agreement or other Servicing Agreement with such Distribution Participant or servicing broker-dealer provides for such a reallowance. All determinations regarding reallowance of the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee will be made in good faith. Additionally, for Class T Shares and Class D Shares, the Managing Dealer also agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause a Participating Broker to make available on-going shareholder and account maintenance services with respect to the Company’s Shares.

(d)The Company will cease paying the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee with respect to Class T Shares held in any particular account, upon the conversion of those Class T Shares into a

- 5 -

number of Class A Shares in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement. If the Company redeems a portion, but not all of the Class T Shares held in a shareholder’s account, the total underwriting compensation limit and amount of underwriting compensation previously paid will be prorated between the Class T Shares that were redeemed and those Class T Shares that were retained in the account. Likewise, if a portion of the Class T Shares in a shareholder’s account is sold or otherwise transferred in a secondary transaction, the total underwriting compensation limit and amount of underwriting compensation previously paid will be prorated between the Class T Shares that were transferred and the Class T Shares that were retained in the account.

(e)The Company will cease paying the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee with respect to Class D Shares held in any particular account, upon the conversion of the Class D Shares into a number of Class A Shares in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement. If the Company redeems a portion, but not all of the Class D Shares held in a shareholder’s account, the total underwriting compensation limit and amount of underwriting compensation previously paid will be prorated between the Class D Shares that were redeemed and those Class D Shares that were retained in the account. Likewise, if a portion of the Class D Shares in a shareholder’s account is sold or otherwise transferred in a secondary transaction, the total underwriting compensation limit and amount of underwriting compensation previously paid will be prorated between the Class D Shares that were transferred and the Class D Shares that were retained in the account.

(f)The Company will further cease paying the annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee on any Class T or Class D Share that is redeemed or repurchased, as well as upon the Company’s dissolution, liquidation or the winding up of the Company’s affairs, or a merger or other extraordinary transaction in which the Company is a party and, with respect to Class T Shares, in which the Class T Shares as a class are exchanged for cash or other securities, or, with respect to Class D Shares, in which the Class D Shares as a class are exchanged for cash or other securities. If the Company liquidates (voluntarily or otherwise), dissolves or winds up its affairs, then, immediately before such liquidation, dissolution or winding up, the Class T Shares, Class D Shares, and Class I Shares will automatically convert to Class A Shares in accordance with the provisions of the Company’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement and the Company’s net assets, or the proceeds therefrom, will be distributed to the holders of Class A Shares, which will include all converted Class T Shares, Class D Shares, and Class I Shares, in accordance with their proportionate interests. A distribution and shareholder servicing fee will not be paid on any Class A Shares sold in the Primary Offering or pursuant to the Distribution Reinvestment Plan.

(g)The Managing Dealer may reimburse Distribution Participants for (i) technology costs and (ii) other costs and expenses associated with the Offering, the facilitation of the marketing of the Shares and the ownership of such Shares by the customers of Distribution Participants from the portion of the selling commissions and the dealer manager fee retained by the Managing Dealer.

4.2Reduced Fees and Other Fee Matters.

(a)Notwithstanding Section 4.1 herein, in accordance with and provided by the terms of the Prospectus, which may be amended and supplemented from time to time, discounts may be offered for the Company’s Shares. The amount of net proceeds to the Company will not be affected by reducing or eliminating commissions and dealer manager fees payable in connection with sales to investors described in this paragraph.

(b)In accordance with the volume discounts schedule set forth in the “Plan of Distribution” section of the Prospectus, the amount of selling commissions otherwise payable shall be reduced with respect to sales to a subscriber or group of subscribers based upon the aggregate number of Class A Shares purchased by such subscriber or group through the same Distribution Participant. Distribution Participants and/or subscribers are responsible for requesting that subscriptions be combined, if applicable, for the purpose of determining whether such subscriptions qualify for volume discounts.

(c)No selling commissions or dealer manager fees will be paid in connection with Shares purchased through the Distribution Reinvestment Plan.

- 6 -

(d)A Participating Broker may withhold the selling commissions and dealer manager fees to which it is entitled from the purchase price for the Shares in the Offering and forward the balance of the subscription proceeds to the Company if (i) the Participating Broker is legally permitted to do so and (ii) (A) the Participating Broker meets all applicable net capital requirements under the rules of FINRA or other applicable rules regarding such an arrangement; (B) the Participating Broker forwards the subscription agreement to the Company and receives the Company’s written acceptance of the subscription prior to forwarding the purchase price for the Shares, net of the selling commissions and dealer manager fees to which the Participating Broker is entitled, to the Company or an agent designated by the Company; and (C) the Participating Broker verifies that there are sufficient funds in the investor’s account with the Participating Broker to cover the entire cost of the subscription.

4.3Due Diligence.

(a)The Company shall reimburse the Managing Dealer for detailed and itemized bona fide third-party due diligence expenses incurred by the Managing Dealer or reimbursed by the Managing Dealer to the Distribution Participants or their agents in connection with the Offering.

(b)The Managing Dealer shall keep strictly confidential all materials sent to it in connection with due diligence conducted on the Offering, including but not limited to all materials labeled “for due diligence use only” unless such material is required to be disclosed pursuant to any applicable law, regulation, judicial or administrative order, decree or subpoena, or request by a regulatory organization having authority pursuant to applicable law.

4.4Completed Sale.

(a)The Company shall accept or reject each subscription within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof. If a subscription is rejected, all related subscription funds, without deduction for any expenses, shall be returned to the subscriber within ten (10) business days following the date such subscription is rejected. A sale of a Share shall be deemed by the Company to be completed for purposes of Section 4.1 herein if and only if (i) the Company has received a properly completed and executed Subscription Agreement, together with payment of the full applicable purchase price of each purchased Share, from an investor who satisfies the applicable suitability standards and minimum purchase requirements set forth in the Prospectus as determined by the Distribution Participant (or Managing Dealer if applicable) in accordance with Section 2.3 of this Agreement; (ii) the Company has accepted such subscription; (iii) the Minimum Offering has been reached, and (iv) such investor has been admitted as a shareholder of the Company. In addition, no sale of Shares shall be completed until at least five (5) business days after the date on which the subscriber receives a copy of the Prospectus.

(b)The Managing Dealer hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole and absolute discretion, may accept or reject any subscription, in whole or in part, for any reason whatsoever, and no commission, dealer manager fee or annual distribution and shareholder servicing fee will be paid to the Managing Dealer with respect to that portion of any subscription which is rejected.

4.5Payment. Except as otherwise provided herein, the commissions and dealer manager fees specified in Section 4.1 herein for the sale of any Shares shall be payable in cash by the Company no later than seven (7) days after the investor subscribing for the Shares is admitted as a shareholder of the Company. Investors whose subscriptions for Shares are accepted shall be admitted no later than the end of the calendar month following the month in which such subscriptions are accepted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that the Company pays any commission or fees to the Managing Dealer for a sale by it or a Distribution Participant of one or more Shares and the subscription is subsequently rescinded as to one or more of the Shares covered by such subscription, the Company shall decrease the next payment of commissions or other compensation otherwise payable to the Managing Dealer by the Company under this Agreement by an amount equal to the applicable rate established in Section 4.1 of this Agreement, multiplied by the price of the Shares as to which the subscription is rescinded. In the event that no payment of commissions or other compensation is due to the

- 7 -

Managing Dealer after such rescinded subscription occurs, the Managing Dealer shall pay the amount specified in the preceding sentence to the Company within seven (7) days following receipt of notice by the Managing Dealer from the Company stating the amount owed as a result of rescinded subscriptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no commissions, payments or amounts whatsoever will be paid to the Managing Dealer under this Article 4 unless or until the Minimum Offering has been reached. Until the Minimum Offering is reached, investments will be held in escrow. If the Minimum Offering is not reached within the time period specified in the Prospectus, investments will be promptly returned to investors in accordance with the Prospectus.

4.6The Company will not be liable or responsible to any Distribution Participant for direct payment of commissions, dealer manager fees or distribution and shareholder servicing fees to such Distribution Participant; it is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Managing Dealer for payment of commissions, reallowance of dealer manager fees and distribution and shareholder servicing fees to Distribution Participants.

4.7Non-Cash Compensation and Sales Incentives. The Company or its affiliates may provide certain non-cash compensation for registered representatives of the Managing Dealer and the Distribution Participants or other compensation as described in the Prospectus. In accordance with FINRA regulations, these items may not in any event exceed an aggregate of $100 per annum per participating registered representative and they may not be preconditioned on the achievement of a sales target. In the event any other sales incentives are provided to registered representatives of the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers, they shall be paid only in cash, and such payments shall be made only to the Managing Dealer or the Participating Brokers rather than to their registered representatives. Sales incentive programs offered to the Managing Dealer or to Participating Brokers must first have been submitted for review by FINRA, and must comply with FINRA Rule 5110 or 2310, as applicable. Costs incurred in connection with such sales incentive programs, if any, shall be considered underwriting compensation.

4.8FINRA Rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Company pay or give or cause to be paid or given any compensation or incentives in excess of amounts permitted under applicable FINRA rules or published guidance. The Managing Dealer agrees that all payments to a Participating Broker-Dealer (or a designated Approved Finder/Consultant) shall be made in compliance with applicable law.

None of: (i) the execution and delivery by the Managing Dealer of this Agreement; (ii) the consummation by the Managing Dealer of any of the transactions herein contemplated; and (iii) the compliance by the Managing Dealer with the provisions hereof, does or will in any material respect conflict with or result in a breach of any term or provision of the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Managing Dealer or conflict with, result in a breach, violation or acceleration of, or constitute a default under, the terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Managing Dealer is a party or by which it is bound or any material statute, order or regulation applicable to the Managing Dealer of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Managing Dealer. The Managing Dealer is not a party to, bound by or in breach or violation of any indenture or other agreement or instrument or subject to or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it that adversely affects: (A) the ability of the Managing Dealer to perform its obligations under this Agreement; or (B) the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Managing Dealer, except, with respect to any indenture, agreement or other instrument, such breach that would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect.

(g)The Managing Dealer, by virtue of entering into a Distribution Agreement, shall require Distribution Participants to verify the identity of each investor, if any, to whom it directly offers and sells Shares and to maintain a “customer identification program” to verify the source of the investor’s funds as required by the anti-money laundering rules of FINRA, the SEC and the Department of Treasury, and shall screen such investors against current lists of individuals and organizations available from the Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”). The Managing Dealer shall not accept subscriptions from any person, entity or organization in a blocked jurisdiction. The Managing Dealer shall file any necessary or appropriate suspicious activity reports and currency transaction reports and other required reports under applicable “know your customer” and “anti-money laundering” laws and regulations in respect of investors or potential investors. The Managing Dealer has in place and adheres to a comprehensive anti-money laundering program that meets the requirements of FINRA Rule 3310, Department of Treasury regulations issued pursuant to Title III of the USA PATRIOT Act and other applicable laws and regulations. The Managing Dealer agrees to cooperate with the Company in gathering additional information in respect of an investor or the source of the investor’s funds as reasonably requested by the Company, and agrees to cooperate with the Company in connection with anti-money laundering laws and regulations. By forwarding an investor’s subscription information to the Company, the Managing Dealer represents and warrants that it has verified the identity of the investor and the source of the investor’s funds, that the investor is not listed on the OFAC list, and that the Managing Dealer, after conducting commercially reasonable diligence, is not aware of any suspicious or illegal activity associated with the investor or the source of the investor’s funds. The Managing Dealer is not responsible for customer identification issues regarding investors identified by Distribution Participants but shall maintain a customer identification program with respect to any subscribers that the Managing Dealer offers and sells shares directly to through its accommodation accounts. With respect to a potential subscriber for Shares, who, as to the United States, is a non-resident alien individual, a foreign trust or estate, or a foreign corporation or other entity ("Foreign Investor"), the Managing Dealer shall require the Participating Broker acting on behalf of such Foreign Investor, prior to submitting a Subscription Agreement for a Foreign Investor, to have have conducted reasonable diligence to confirm (and shall have confirmed) that neither the Foreign Investor nor, as applicable, the beneficial owners of such Foreign Investor, appear on the Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List of OFAC, nor are they otherwise a party with which the Company is prohibited to deal under the laws of the United States.

(h)With respect to a potential subscriber for Shares who is a Foreign Investor, the Managing Dealer shall require the Participating Broker acting on behalf of such Foreign Investor, prior to submitting a Subscription Agreement for a Foreign Investor, to have confirmed that the Foreign Investor’s monies used to fund the purchase of the Shares are not derived from, invested for the benefit of, or related in any way to, the governments of, or persons within, any country (i) under a United States embargo enforced by OFAC, (ii) that has been designated as a “non-cooperative country or territory” by the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering, (iii) that has been

- 10 -

designated by the United States Secretary of the Treasury as a “primary money laundering concern,” or (iv) that based on reasonable diligence, such Participating Broker does not know or have any reason to suspect that the monies used to fund the Foreign Investor’s investment in the Shares have been or will be derived from or related to any illegal activities, including but not limited to, money laundering activities, or that the proceeds from the Foreign Investor’s investment in the Shares will be used to finance any illegal activities.

(i) With respect to a potential subscriber for Shares who is a Foreign Investor, the Managing Dealer shall require the Participating Broker acting on behalf of such Foreign Investor, prior to submitting a Subscription Agreement for a Foreign Investor, to inform such Foreign Investors (or, as applicable, the beneficial owners of such Foreign Investor) in writing that (i) the Shares have been registered only with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and in certain states and territories of the United States, (ii) that these registrations and their related protections do not apply to non-resident investors, (iii) that the Shares will not be registered under the securities laws of any foreign country, including the country where the Foreign Investor or, as applicable, the beneficial owners of the Foreign Investor are citizens, (iv) that the Prospectus is made available only in the English Language and will not be translated into other languages, and that any Foreign Investor who does not read or understand English should retain a qualified advisor or purchaser representative who can read and understand English and advise such Foreign Investor on an investment in the Shares (v) that the Company may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax from distributions or liquidation proceeds that are otherwise exempt from withholding tax (or taxable at a reduced treaty rate), (vi) that the Prospectus discusses only the taxation of “non-U.S. shareholders” generally, such that the tax consequences to a Foreign Investor entitled to claim the benefits of an applicable tax treaty may differ from those described in the Prospectus and (vii) that Foreign Investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in Shares.

(j)There are no actions or proceedings against, or investigations of, the Managing Dealer pending or, to the knowledge of the Managing Dealer, threatened, before any court, arbitrator, administrative agency or other tribunal: (i) asserting the invalidity of this Agreement; (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or (iii) that might materially and adversely affect the performance by the Managing Dealer of its obligations under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement.

(k)Solicitation and other activities by the Managing Dealer hereunder shall be undertaken only in accordance with this Agreement, the Prospectus, the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, FINRA and any other applicable securities or blue sky laws and regulations. The Managing Dealer agrees that it shall not, and by virtue of entering into a Distribution Agreement, each Distribution Participant shall agree not to, use or authorize the use of any solicitation material other than the Prospectus and Approved Sales Literature, which, in all cases, shall be accompanied or preceded by delivery of the Prospectus.

(l)The Managing Dealer agrees to be bound by the terms of the Escrow Agreement among UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent, the Managing Dealer and the Company, a copy of which is available upon request, and the Managing Dealer further agrees that it will not represent or imply that UMB Bank, N.A., as the escrow agent identified in the Prospectus, has investigated the desirability or advisability of an investment in the Company or has approved, endorsed or passed upon the merits of the Shares or the Company, nor will the Managing Dealer use the name of said escrow agent in any manner whatsoever in connection with the offer or sale of the Shares other than by acknowledgment that it has agreed to serve as escrow agent.

For purposes of this Article 9, “control person” means, with respect to any particular person, any other person who possesses, directly or indirectly, the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of such particular person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise. For purposes of this Article 9, “associated persons” shall be as defined under FINRA laws and regulations.

(b)The Company shall not be required to indemnify or hold harmless any Distribution Participant Indemnified Person from or against any Loss suffered by the Managing Dealer, or a Distribution Participant unless: (i) such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person has determined, in good faith, that its course of conduct was in the best interests of the Company; (ii) such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person was acting on behalf of or performing services on behalf of the Company; (iii) such Loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct on the part of such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person or any other Distribution Participant Indemnified Person; and (iv) such Loss is recoverable only out of the net assets of the Company and not from the personal assets of its shareholders.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 9.1(a), a Distribution Participant Indemnified Person shall not be indemnified by the Company for any Loss arising from or out of an alleged violation of federal or state securities laws by such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person unless one or more of the following conditions are met: (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities laws violations as to such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person; (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person; or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against such Distribution Participant Indemnified Person and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made, and the court considering the request for indemnification has been advised of the position of the SEC and of the published position of any state securities regulatory authority in which securities of the Company were offered or sold as to indemnification for violations of securities laws.

(d)The Managing Dealer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons (collectively, the “Company Indemnified Persons”), from and against any and all Losses to which the Company may become subject, insofar as such Losses (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon: (i) a breach or alleged breach by the Managing Dealer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants in this Agreement, (ii) any untrue statement

- 15 -

or alleged untrue statement of any material fact made by the Managing Dealer or any of its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons, to any offeree or purchaser of any Shares (other than any statement contained in the Prospectus or any Approved Sales Literature, or any amendment or supplement thereto, unless such statement was based on information supplied by the Managing Dealer), or (iii) any omission or alleged omission by the Managing Dealer or any of its officers, directors, partners, employees, associated persons, agents and control persons, to state to any offeree or purchaser of any Shares a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made to such offeree or purchaser not misleading in light of the circumstances under which they were made (other than any such material fact omitted from Approved Sales Literature, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, unless such omission was based on information supplied by the Managing Dealer); and shall reimburse each Company Indemnified Person for any legal or other expenses (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such Company Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any Proceeding, whether or not resulting in any liability.

(e)The Distribution Agreements shall contain a provision by which each Distribution Participant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company from and against certain Losses resulting from specified acts or omissions of such Distribution Participant, and designates the Company as a third-party beneficiary empowered to enforce such provision.

9.2Contribution and Notices.

(a)If the rights to indemnification provided for in Section 9.1 would by their terms be available to a person hereunder (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually, an “Indemnified Party”), but is held to be unavailable by a court of competent jurisdiction for any reason, then the Company, the Managing Dealer and the Distribution Participants, to the extent an indemnifying party with respect to an Indemnified Party (each to such extent, an “Indemnifying Party”), shall contribute to the aggregate of such losses, claims, damages and liabilities as are contemplated in those paragraphs (including, but not limited to, any investigation, legal and other expenses incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any claim, action, suit or proceeding) in the ratio in which the net proceeds of the Offering of Shares have been actually received and retained by such Indemnifying Party. However, the right of contribution described in the preceding sentences is subject to the following limitation: No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(b)Any Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification under this Article 8 shall, promptly after receipt of such notice of commencement of any action, suit, proceeding or claim against him or it in respect of which a claim for contribution or indemnification may be made against another Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties, notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties. Failure to so notify such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall not relieve such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties from any other obligation it or they may have hereunder or otherwise, unless the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced in its ability to defend the action as a result of such delay. If such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties are so notified, such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such action, suit, proceeding or claim at its or their own expense or in accordance with arrangements satisfactory to all parties who may be required to contribute. After notice from such other Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties to the Indemnified Party entitled to contribution or indemnification of its or their acknowledgement of its or their obligations hereunder and its or their election to assume its or their own defense, the Indemnifying Party or Indemnifying Parties so electing shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses of litigation subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification or contribution in connection with the defense thereof, other than the reasonable costs of investigation. No party shall be required to contribute or provide indemnification with respect to the settlement amount of any action or claim settled without its consent.
