8.3.

Termination. A party may terminate this Agreement under the following circumstances.

Termination for Good Cause. Except for a termination by the Trust pursuant to Section 8.3.C, during the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, a party (the “Terminating Party”) may only terminate the Agreement against the other party (the “Non-Terminating Party”) for good cause.

Page 4 of 17

(2)

the Non-Terminating Party takes a position regarding compliance with Federal Securities Laws that the Terminating Party reasonably disagrees with, the Terminating Party provides 30 days’ prior written notice of such disagreement, and the parties fail to come to agreement on the position within the 30-day notice period;

(3)

a final and unappealable judicial, regulatory, or administrative ruling or order in which the Non-Terminating Party has been found guilty of criminal or unethical behavior in the conduct of its business;

(4)

the authorization or commencement of, or involvement by way of pleading, answer, consent, or acquiescence in, a voluntary or involuntary case under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States Code, as then in effect.

Change of Control. In the event Xxxxxxx experiences a Change of Control, the Trust shall have the right for a period of two (2) years from and after the effective date of such Change of Control to terminate this Agreement. In the event the Trust exercises its right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 8.3.B., the Trust will not be subject to payment of any Early Termination Fee (as defined in Section 8.3.D.) or deconversion fee but shall be obligated to reimburse Ultimus for all of Ultimus’ cash disbursements reasonably made for services in connection with Ultimus’ activities in effecting such termination, including, without limitation, the delivery to the Trust or its designees of the Trust’s property, records, instruments, and documents. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: (i) an acquisition of Ultimus by another entity by means of any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, any reorganization, merger or consolidation), or (ii) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of Ultimus, so long as in either case the beneficial owners (whether such ownership is held directly or indirectly) of Ultimus as of the commencement of the Initial Term hereof, immediately after such event or series of related events, hold less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the surviving or acquiring entity.

End-of-Term Termination. A party can terminate this Agreement at the end of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term by providing written notice of termination to the other party at least 120 days prior to the end of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term.

Early Termination. Any termination by the Trust or Fund other than termination under Section 8.3.A-C, or G is deemed an “Early Termination.” The Trust or Fund that provides a notice of early termination is subject to an “Early Termination Fee” equal to the pro rated fee amount due to Ultimus through the end of the then-current term as calculated in the applicable Fee Letter.

Final Payment. Any unpaid compensation, reimbursement of expenses, or Early Termination Fee is due to Ultimus within 30 calendar days of the termination date provided in the notice of termination.

Standard of Care. Xxxxxxx’ duties are limited to those expressly set forth in this Agreement and Xxxxxxx does not assume any implied duties. Ultimus shall use its best efforts in the performance of its duties and act in good faith in performing the Services or its obligations under this Agreement. Ultimus shall be liable for any damages, losses or costs, including any loss incurred by a Fund or which will be incurred by a Fund upon the passage of time, arising out of Ultimus’ willful malfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence in the performance of its duties, reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder, or breach of a material duty hereunder.

Xxxxxxx shall not be liable for any Losses (as defined below) arising from the following:

(1)

performing Services or duties pursuant to any oral, written, or electric instruction, notice, request, record, order, document, report, resolution, certificate, consent, data, authorization, instrument, or item of any kind that Ultimus reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed, presented, or furnished by a duly authorized representative of the Trust or any Fund (other than an employee or other

Ultimus Master Services Agreement

Page 6 of 17

affiliated persons of Xxxxxxx who may otherwise be named as an authorized representative of the Trust for certain purposes);

(2)

using valuation information provided by the Trust’s approved third-party pricing service(s) or the investment adviser(s) to the Fund for the purpose of valuing a Fund’s portfolio holdings;

(3)

any default, damages, costs, loss of data or documents, errors, delay, or other loss whatsoever caused by events beyond Ultimus’ reasonable control, including, without limitation, corrupt, faulty or inaccurate data provided to Ultimus by third-parties (other than third parties engaged by Xxxxxxx for which Xxxxxxx is responsible pursuant to Section 6); and

(4)

any error, action or omission by the Trust or other past or current service provider.

Ultimus may apply to the Trust at any time for instructions and may consult with counsel for the Trust or a Fund, counsel for the Trust’s independent Trustees, and with accountants and other experts with respect to any matter arising in connection with Xxxxxxx' duties or the Services. Ultimus shall not be liable or accountable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith in accordance with such instruction or with the reasonable opinion of such counsel, accountants, or other experts qualified to render such opinion.

A copy of the Trust’s Agreement and Declaration of Trust (the “Declaration of Trust”) is on file with the Secretary of State (or equivalent authority) of the state in which the Trust is organized, and notice is hereby given that this instrument is executed on behalf of the Trust and not the Trustees individually and that the obligations of this instrument are not binding upon any of the Trustees, officers or shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Trust (or if the matter relates only to a particular Fund, that Fund), and Xxxxxxx shall look only to the assets of the Trust (or the particular Fund, as applicable), 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 Trust or any Fund, the Trust’s or any Fund’s investment adviser or any of the Trust’s or Fund’s other service providers until receipt of written notice thereof from the Trust or Fund (as applicable). 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 Funds, 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 each 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 Trust agrees to limit Ultimus’ liability for the Trust’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 Trust or a Fund and Xxxxxxx 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 and to the extent that such Losses were caused in part by the Indemnitee’s 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 Trust or Fund shall indemnify Ultimus for Xxxxxxx’ 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

Tax Matters

Legal Representation

Notwithstanding any provision of the Master Services Agreement or this Fund Administration Addendum to the contrary, Xxxxxxx will not provide legal representation to the Trust or any Fund, including through the use of attorneys that are employees of, or contractually engaged by, Xxxxxxx. The Trust acknowledges that in-house Ultimus attorneys exclusively represent Xxxxxxx and will rely on outside counsel retained by the Trust to review all services provided by in-house Ultimus attorneys and to provide independent judgment on the Trust’s behalf.
