At any time, State Street may apply to the Fund and/or the Fund’s investment adviser for instructions and may consult with its own legal counsel or outside counsel for the Fund or the independent accountants for the Fund with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by State Street under this Agreement.

State Street shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person until receipt of written notice thereof from the Fund. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as imposing upon State Street any obligation to seek such instructions or advice, or to act in accordance with such advice when received.
Section 10. PROVISION OF INFORMATION
The Fund shall provide, or cause a third party to provide, certain data to State Street as a condition to State Street’s obligations under Section 7 of this Agreement.

State Street is authorized and instructed to rely upon the information it receives from the Fund or any third party authorized by the Fund (a “Third Party Agent”) to provide such information to State Street. State Street shall have no responsibility to
5
review, confirm, or otherwise assume any duty with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any information supplied to it by the Fund or any Third Party Agent.
Section 11. COMPLIANCE WITH GOVERNMENTAL RULES AND REGULATIONS
The Fund assumes full responsibility for complying with all securities, tax, commodities, and other laws, rules, and regulations applicable to it. At such times as State Street may reasonably request, the Fund shall provide, or cause to be provided, to State Street a certificate from the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser, and/or the independent accountants of the Fund, and each other service provider or agent acting on behalf of the Fund, as to such party’s compliance with such laws, rules, and/or regulations to which the Fund is subject. In each case, such certificate shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Xxxxx Xxxxxx.
Xxxxxxx 00. XXXXXXXX XX XXXX; LIMITATION ON LIABILITY
State Street shall at all times exercise reasonable care and diligence and act in good faith in the performance of its duties hereunder, provided, however, that State Street shall assume no responsibility and shall be without liability for any loss, liability, claim or expense suffered or incurred by the Fund unless caused by its own fraud, willful default, gross negligence or willful misconduct or that of its agents or employees. State Street shall be responsible for the performance of only such duties as are set forth in this Agreement (but including any additional duties as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time among the parties pursuant to Section 5 hereof) and, except as otherwise provided under Section 8, shall have no responsibility for the actions or activities of any other party, including other service providers to the Fund. State Street shall have no liability in respect of any loss, damage, or expense suffered by the Fund insofar as such loss, damage, or expense arises from the performance of State Street’s duties hereunder in reliance upon records that were created and/or maintained for the Fund by entities other than State Street prior to State Street’s appointment under this Agreement as a service provider to the Fund.
In any event, for the services provided pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, State Street’s cumulative liability for any calendar year, regardless of the form of action or legal theory, shall be limited to such amounts as may be agreed upon from time to time between the parties hereto.
Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, State Street shall in no event be liable for any loss or damage arising from causes beyond its reasonable control, including, without limitation, delay or cessation of services hereunder or any damages to the Fund resulting therefrom as a result of any work stoppage, power or other mechanical failure, computer virus, natural disaster, governmental action, communications disruption, or other impossibility of performance.
In no event shall either party to this Agreement be liable for indirect, special or consequential damages.

Section 13. INDEMNIFICATION
The Fund hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless State Street to the fullest extent permitted by law from and against any loss, liability, claim or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements) suffered or incurred by State Street in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, including, without limitation, any liability or expense suffered or incurred as a result of the acts or omissions of the Fund, the Fund’s investment adviser, any Third Party Agent, or any Authorized Price Source whose data or services, including records, reports or other information State Street must rely upon in performing State Street’s duties under this Agreement; as a result of acting upon any instructions reasonably believed by it to have been duly authorized by the Fund or the Fund’s investment adviser or any other designated person; or, as a result of any reliance by State Street upon records that were created and/or maintained for the Fund by entities other than State Street prior to State Street’s appointment under this Agreement as a service provider to the Fund; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not apply to any liability or expense occasioned by or resulting from the fraud, willful default, gross negligence, or willful misconduct of State Street in the performance of its duties hereunder.
The Fund shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense, or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any liability subject to the indemnification provided above. In the event that the Fund elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel, State Street, or any of its affiliated persons, named as defendant or defendants in the suit, may retain additional counsel but shall bear the fees and expenses of such counsel unless (i) the Fund shall have specifically authorized the retaining of such counsel, or (ii) State Street shall have determined in good faith that the retention of such counsel is required as a result of a conflict of interest.

If a successor to State Street shall be appointed by the Fund, then the Fund shall deliver to State Street a written order designating the successor agent and State Street shall, upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 15, deliver to such successor agent at the office of the successor agent all books and records of the Fund maintained by State Street hereunder. In the event that this Agreement is terminated by either party without the appointment of a successor agent, State Street shall, upon receipt of Proper Instructions, deliver such books and records in accordance with such instructions.
In the event that no written order designating a successor agent or Proper Instructions shall have been delivered to State Street on or before the effective date of such termination, then State Street shall have the right to deliver to the office of the Fund all books and records of the Fund maintained by State Street hereunder.
