(a) As to the services to be provided hereunder, Citi may rely conclusively upon the terms of the Fund’s Governing Documents and Offering Documents, to the extent that such services are described therein, and other records of the Fund unless Citi receives written instructions to the contrary in a timely manner from the Fund.

(c) The parties hereto may amend such procedures as may be set forth herein by written agreement as may be appropriate or practical under the circumstances, and Citi may conclusively assume that any special procedure which has been approved by an authorized officer of the Fund (other than an officer or employee of Citi) does not conflict with or violate any requirements of the Fund’s Governing Documents and Offering Documents, or any rule, regulation, or requirement of any regulatory body.

Also, Citi shall be protected in acting upon any document that it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person or persons. Citi will not be held to have notice of any change of the authority of any officers, employees or agents of the Fund until receipt of written notice thereof from the Fund.

or other instrument or communication, reasonably believed by Citi to be genuine and to have been properly made, signed or authorized by an officer or other authorized agent of the Fund or by the investor or investor’s agent, as the case may be, and shall be entitled to receive as conclusive proof of any fact or matter required to be ascertained by it hereunder a certificate signed by an officer of the Fund or any other person authorized by the Board or by the investor or Investor’s Agent, as the case may be.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement, “cause” shall mean (i) a material breach of this Agreement that has not been remedied for thirty (30) days following written notice of such breach from the non-breaching party, (ii) a final unappealable judicial, regulatory, or administrative ruling or order in which the party to be terminated has been found guilty of criminal or unethical behavior in the conduct of its business, or (iii) financial difficulties on the part of the party to be terminated which are evidenced by the authorization or commencement of a voluntary, or failure to diligently contest an involuntary, case under Title 11 of the United States Code, as from time to time is in effect, or any applicable law, other than said Title 11, of any jurisdiction relating to the liquidation or reorganization of debtors or to the modification or alteration of the rights of creditors.

(c) This Agreement may be terminated only (i) by provision of a written notice of non-renewal provided at least 90 days prior to the end of the Initial Term or any Rollover Period

(which notice of non-renewal will cause this Agreement to terminate as of the end of the Initial Term or such Rollover Period, as applicable), (ii) by mutual agreement of the parties, or (iii) for “cause,” as defined above, upon the provision of 30 days advance written notice by the party alleging cause.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing termination provisions, following any such termination, in the event that Citi in fact continues to perform any one or more of the services contemplated by this Agreement (or any Schedule or exhibit to this Agreement) with the prior written consent of the Fund, the provisions of this Agreement, including without limitation the provisions dealing with compensation and indemnification, shall continue in full force and effect. Fees and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Citi but unpaid by the Fund upon such termination shall be immediately due and payable upon and notwithstanding such termination. The Fund shall pay to Citi, in addition to the fees and expenses provided in Section 5 of this Agreement, the amount of all of Citi’s reasonable cash disbursements in connection with Citi’s activities in effecting such termination, including without limitation, the delivery to the Fund, its investment adviser and/or other parties of the Fund’s property, records, instruments and documents, such amount to be paid before the date of such termination.

(e) If, for any reason other than (i) the non-renewal of this Agreement, (ii) mutual agreement of the parties or (iii) “cause”, the Fund terminates this Agreement, or the Fund terminates Citi’s services, or Citi is replaced as service provider to the Fund or some or all of its portfolios, then the Fund shall make a one-time cash payment to Citi, in consideration of the fee structure and services to be provided under this Agreement, equal to the balance that would be due Citi for its services under this Agreement during the lesser of (x) the balance of the Initial Term or any applicable Rollover Period, as the case may be, or (y) 12 months, assuming for purposes of the calculation of the one-time payment that the fees that would be earned by Citi for each month would be based upon the average fees payable to Citi monthly during the 12 months before the date of the event that triggers such payment.

(f) In the event that the Fund or any of its investment portfolios is, in part or in whole, liquidated, dissolved, merged into a third party, acquired by a third party, or involved in any other transaction that materially reduces the assets and/or accounts serviced by Citi pursuant

to this Agreement, the liquidated damages provision set forth above shall be applicable in those instances in which Citi is not retained to provide services consistent with this Agreement. The one-time cash payment referenced above shall be due and payable on the day prior to the first day in which services are terminated, Citi is replaced or a third party is added.

(g) If one of the events described above is partial (e.g., a termination of Citi as provider of some but not all of the services set forth in this Agreement, or a liquidation of some but not all of the Funds), the liquidated damages amount payable by the Fund shall be appropriately adjusted on a pro rata basis.

(h) The parties further acknowledge and agree that, upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Subsection (e) above: (i) a determination of actual damages incurred by Citi would be extremely difficult, and (ii) the liquidated damages payment described above is intended to adequately compensate Citi for damages incurred and is not intended to constitute any form of penalty.

7) Limitation of Liability; Indemnification

(a) Citi shall use reasonable professional diligence in the performance of its services performed under this Agreement, but shall not be liable to the Fund for any action taken or omitted by Citi in the absence of bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties. The duties of Citi shall be confined to those expressly set forth herein, and no implied duties are assumed by or may be asserted against Citi hereunder.

(b) Citi shall maintain adequate and reliable computer and other equipment necessary or appropriate to carry out its obligations under this Agreement. Upon the Fund’s reasonable request, Citi shall provide supplemental information concerning the aspects of its disaster recovery and business continuity plan that are relevant to the services provided hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, Citi assumes no responsibility hereunder, and shall not be liable for, any damage, loss of data, delay or any other loss whatsoever caused by events beyond its reasonable control. Events beyond Citi’s reasonable control (“Force Majeure Events”) include, without limitation, natural disasters,

actions or decrees of governmental bodies, terrorist actions, communication lines failures that are not the fault of either party, and computer or other equipment failures or similar events beyond its reasonable control. In the event of a Force Majeure Event, Citi shall follow applicable procedures in its disaster recovery and business continuity plan and use all commercially reasonable efforts to minimize any service interruption.

(c) The Fund agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Citi, its affiliates, subsidiaries and parents, and their respective employees, agents, directors, officers and nominees from and against any and all claims, demands, actions and suits, judgments, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, charges, counsel fees and other expenses of every nature and character (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of or in any way relating to Citi’s performance of services under this Agreement or based, if applicable, upon reasonable reliance on information, records, documents, or instructions given or made to Citi by the Fund or any authorized agents of the Fund (including, without limitation, the placement agents, underwriters and distributors); provided that this indemnification shall not apply to actions or omissions of Citi in cases of its own bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or reckless disregard by Citi of its obligations and duties.

(d) Citi shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Fund, its affiliates, subsidiaries and parents, and their respective employees, agents, directors, officers and nominees from and against any and all Losses arising out of or in any way relating to Citi’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder; provided that this indemnification shall not apply to actions or omissions of the Fund in cases of its own bad faith, willful misfeasance, negligence or reckless disregard by the Fund of its obligations and duties.

(e) The indemnification rights hereunder shall include the right to reasonable advances of defense expenses in the event of any pending or threatened litigation with respect to which indemnification hereunder may ultimately be merited. In order that the indemnification provisions contained herein shall apply, however, it is understood that if in any case a party may be asked to indemnify or hold the other party harmless, the indemnifying party shall be fully and promptly advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and it is further understood that the indemnified party will use all reasonable care to notify the indemnifying

- -

party promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears likely to present the probability of a claim for indemnification against the indemnifying party, but failure to do so in good faith shall not affect the rights hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced thereby. The indemnified party shall not settle or compromise any claim or action for which indemnity may be sought without the consent of the indemnifying party (which shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably by the indemnifying party).

(f) The indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate at its own expense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any claims subject to this indemnity provision. If the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any such claim, the defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by it and reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that the indemnifying party elects to assume the defense of any suit and retain counsel, the indemnified party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it. If the indemnifying party does not elect to assume the defense of suit, it will reimburse the indemnified party for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the indemnified party. The indemnifying party shall not settle or compromise any claim or action without the consent of the indemnified party (which shall not be withheld or delayed unreasonably by the indemnified party) if such settlement or compromise imposes any liability, responsibility, restriction, or other obligation or consequence on the indemnified party. The indemnity and defense provisions set forth herein shall indefinitely survive the termination of this Agreement.

(g) NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY HERETO, ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR SUB-AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR LOST PROFITS EACH OF WHICH IS HEREBY EXCLUDED BY AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE OR WHETHER EITHER PARTY OR ANY ENTITY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

(h) Citi shall provide the services described herein in accordance with the Service Level Standards set forth in Schedule C and shall be liable to the Fund for any failure to achieve such Service Level Standards as set forth therein. For the avoidance of doubt, the payment of Service Credits (if any) in relation to breaches of applicable Service Level Standards are intended by the parties to help ensure service quality and shall be the Fund’s sole remedy for the breach of a Service Level Standard unless such breach is also an independent breach by Citi of its standard of care as set forth in Section 7(a).

(i) The provisions of this Section 7 are subject to the provisions of Sections 2 and 4 hereof.

8) Activities of Citi

The services of Citi rendered to the Fund hereunder are not to be deemed exclusive. Citi is free to render such services to others and to have other businesses and interests.

It is understood that the Fund’s directors, officers, general partners, employees, and investors are or may be or become interested in Citi, as officers, employees or otherwise and that directors, officers, employees, and shareholders of Citi and its counsel are or may be or become similarly interested in the Fund as an investor or otherwise and that Citi may be or become interested in the Fund as an investor or otherwise.

purposes. To the extent that the performance of such services shall require Citi directly to disburse amounts for payment of dividends, redemption proceeds or other purposes, the Fund shall provide such bank or banks with all instructions and authorizations necessary for Citi to effect such disbursements provided that Citi does so in accordance with the established procedures for the Funds including ensuring proper authorization for the disbursement of funds by authorized representatives of both the Adviser and Citi.
