4.           Duties of the
Fund and the General Partner.  The Fund and the General Partner
shall notify the Administrator promptly of any matter affecting the performance
by the Administrator of its services under this Agreement.  Where the
Administrator is providing fund accounting services pursuant to this Agreement,
the Fund and the General Partner shall promptly notify the Administrator as to
the accrual of liabilities of the Fund and of liabilities of the Fund not
appearing on the books of account kept by the Administrator, as well as to the
existence, status and proper treatment of reserves, if any, authorized by the

(collectively, the “KYC Requirements”).  For purposes of this
subsection, and in connection with all applicable KYC Requirements, the
Fund is the “client” or “customer” of the Administrator.The Fund and the General
Partner further represent that each will perform all obligations required under
applicable KYC Requirements with respect to its “customers” (as defined in the
KYC Requirements) and that, because these customers do not constitute
“customers” or “clients” of the Administrator under such applicable rules and
regulations, the Administrator is under no such similar
obligations.




5.
            Instructions.




5.1           The
Administrator shall not be liable for, and shall be indemnified by the Fund
against any and all losses, costs, damages or expenses arising from or as a
result of, any action taken or omitted in reliance upon Instructions or upon any
other written notice, request, direction, instruction, certificate or other
instrument believed by it to be genuine and signed or authorized by the proper
party or parties.  A list of persons so authorized by the General
Partner (“Authorized Persons”) is attached hereto as Appendix B and upon which
the Administrator may rely until its receipt of notification to the contrary by
the General Partner.




5.2           Instructions
shall include a written request, direction, instruction or certification signed
or initialed on behalf of the Fund by one or more persons as the General Partner
shall have from time to time authorized in writing.  Those persons
authorized to give Instructions may be identified by the General Partner by
name, title or position and will include at least one officer empowered by the
General Partner to name other individuals who are authorized to give
Instructions on behalf of the Fund.




5.3           Telephonic
or other oral instructions or instructions given by telefax transmission may be
given by any one of the above persons and will also be considered Instructions
if the Administrator believes them to have been given by a person authorized to
give such Instructions with respect to the transaction
involved.

5.4           With
respect to telefax transmissions, the Fund and the General Partner hereby
acknowledge that (i) receipt of legible instructions cannot be assured, (ii) the
Administrator cannot verify that authorized signatures on telefax instructions
are original, and (iii) the Administrator shall not be responsible for losses or
expenses incurred through actions taken in reliance on such telefax
instructions.  The Fund and the General Partner agree that such
telefax instructions shall be conclusive evidence of the Fund’s/General
Partner’s Instruction to the Administrator to act or to omit to
act.




5.5           Instructions
given orally will not be confirmed in writing and the lack of such confirmation
shall in no way affect any action taken by the Administrator in reliance upon
such oral Instructions.  The Fund and the General Partner authorize
the Administrator to tape record any and all telephonic or other oral
Instructions given to the Administrator by or on behalf of the Fund (including
any of the Fund’s or the General Partner’s officers, directors, trustees,
employees or agents or any investment manager or adviser or person or entity
with similar responsibilities which is authorized to give Instructions on behalf
of the Fund to the Administrator.)




6.           Expenses and
Compensation.  For the services to be rendered and the
facilities to be furnished by the Administrator as provided for in this
Agreement, the Fund shall pay the Administrator for its services rendered
pursuant to this Agreement a fee based on such fee schedule as may from time to
time be agreed upon in writing among the General Partner, Fund and the
Administrator.  Additional services performed by the Administrator as
requested by the Fund shall be subject to additional fees as mutually agreed
from time to time.  In addition to any such fees, the Administrator
shall bill the Fund separately for any out-of-pocket disbursements of the
Administrator based on an out-of-pocket disbursement schedule as may from time
to time be agreed upon in writing among the General Partner, the Fund and the
Administrator.  The initial fee schedule and out of pocket
disbursement schedule are attached as Appendix D-1 and D-2 to this
Agreement.  The foregoing fees and disbursements shall be billed to
the Fund by the Administrator and shall be paid promptly by wire transfer or
other appropriate means to the Administrator.




7.           Standard of
Care.  The Administrator
shall be held to the exercise of reasonable care and diligence in carrying out
the provisions of this Agreement, provided that the Administrator shall not
thereby be required to take any action which is in contravention of any
applicable law, rule or regulation or any order or judgment of any court of
competent jurisdiction.

8.           General
Limitations on Liability.  The Administrator shall incur no
liability with respect to any telecommunications, equipment or power failures,
or any failures to perform or delays in performance by postal or courier
services or third-party information providers (including, without limitation
those listed on Appendix C).




8.1 The
Administrator shall also incur no liability under this Agreement if the
Administrator or any agent or entity utilized by the Administrator shall be
prevented, forbidden or delayed from performing, or omits to perform, any act or
thing which this Agreement provides shall be performed or omitted to be
performed, by reason of causes or events beyond its control, including but not
limited to:




8.1.1 any
Sovereign Event.  A “Sovereign Event” shall mean any nationalization;
expropriation; devaluation; revaluation; confiscation; seizure; cancellation;
destruction; strike; act of war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; or any
other act or event beyond the Administrator’s control;




8.1.2 any
provision of any present or future law, regulation or order of the United States
or any state thereof, or of any foreign country or political subdivision
thereof, or of any securities depository or clearing agency;
and




8.1.3 any
provision of any order or judgment of any court of competent
jurisdiction.




8.2The Administrator shall not be held accountable or liable for any losses,
damages or expenses the General Partner, the Fund or any unitholder or former
unitholder of the Fund or any other person may suffer or incur arising from
acts, omissions, errors or delays of the Administrator in the performance of its
obligations and duties as provided in Section 3 hereof, including without
limitation any error of judgment or mistake of law, except a damage, loss or
expense directly resulting from the Administrator’s willful malfeasance, bad
faith or negligence in the performance of such Administrator’s obligations and
duties.




9.
            Specific
      Limitations on Liability.In addition to,
      and without limiting the application of the general limitations on
      liability contained in Section 8, above, the following specific
      limitations on the Administrator’s liability shall apply to the particular
      administrative services set forth on Appendix A
  hereto.




5


9.1           Liability for
Fund Accounting Services.  Without limiting the provisions in
Section 8 hereof, the Administrator’s liability for acts, omissions, errors or
delays relating to its fund accounting obligations and duties shall be limited
to the amount of any expenses associated with a required recalculation of net
asset value per unit (“NAV”) or any direct damages suffered by unitholders in
connection with such recalculation.  The Administrator’s liability or
accountability for such acts, omissions, errors or delays shall be further
subject to clauses 9.1.1 through 9.1.4 below.




9.1.1 The
parties hereto acknowledge that the Administrator’s causing an error or delay in
the determination of NAV may, but does not in and of itself, constitute
negligence or reckless or willful misconduct.  The parties further
acknowledge that in accordance with industry practice the liability of the
Administrator for fund accounting services shall accrue and the recalculation of
NAV shall be performed in accordance with this Section 9.1 only with regard to
errors in the calculation of the NAV that are (i) greater than or equal to $.01
per unit of the Fund and (ii) greater than or equal to 1⁄2% of the total net
assets of the Fund.




9.1.2 In no
event shall the Administrator be liable or responsible to the General Partner,
the Fund, any present or former unitholder of the Fund, or any other person for
any error or delay that continued or was undetected after the date of an audit
performed by the certified public accountants employed by or on behalf of the
Fund if, in the exercise of reasonable care in accordance with generally
accepted accounting standards, such accountants should have become aware of such
error or delay in the course of performing such audit.




9.1.3 The
Administrator shall not be held accountable or liable to the General Partner,
the Fund, any unitholder or former unitholder thereof or any other person for
any delays or losses, damages or expenses any of them may suffer or incur
resulting from (i) the Administrator’s usage of a third party service provider
for the purpose of storing records delivered to the Administrator by or on
behalf of the Fund and which the Administrator did not create in the performance
of its obligations hereunder; (ii) the Administrator’s failure to receive timely
and suitable notification concerning quotations or corporate actions relating to
or affecting portfolio securities of the Fund; or (iii) any errors in the
computation of NAV based upon or arising out of quotations or information as to
corporate actions if received by the Administrator either (a) from a source
which the Administrator was authorized to rely upon (including those sources
listed on Appendix C), or (b) from a source which in the Administrator’s
reasonable judgment was as reliable a source for such quotations or information
as such authorized sources; or (iv) any errors in the computation of NAV as a
result of relevant information known to the General Partner, the Fund, a futures
commission merchant, securities brokers or dealers, or any of the
Fund’s  other service providers including futures commission merchants
in contract with the Fund, which would impact the calculation of NAV, but was
not communicated to the Administrator.  To the extent that Fund assets
are not in the custody of the Administrator, the Administrator may conclusively
rely on any reporting in connection with such assets provided to the
Administrator by a third party on behalf of the Fund, including, without
limitation any futures commission merchant.




6


9.1.4 In
the event of any error or delay in the determination of such NAV for which the
Administrator may be liable, the General Partner, the Fund and the Administrator
will consult and make good faith efforts to reach agreement on what actions
should be taken in order to mitigate any loss suffered by the Fund or its
present or former unitholders, in order that the Administrator’s exposure to
liability shall be reduced to the extent possible after taking into account all
relevant factors and alternatives.  It is understood that in
attempting to reach agreement on the actions to be taken or the amount of the
loss which should appropriately be borne by the Administrator, the General
Partner, the Fund and the Administrator will consider such relevant factors as
the amount of the loss involved, the Fund’s/General Partner’s desire to avoid
loss of unitholder goodwill,the fact that other
persons or entities could have been reasonably expected to have detected the
error sooner than the time it was actually discovered, the appropriateness of
limiting or eliminating the benefit which unitholders or former unitholders
might have obtained by reason of the error, and the possibility that other
parties providing services to the Fund might be induced to absorb a portion of
the loss incurred.




10.
            Indemnification.




10.1         The
General Partner and the Fund hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrator, its partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers and
employees and any subsidiary or affiliate of the foregoing (“Affiliate”), and
the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, against any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable counsel
fees and expenses) resulting from any act, omission, error or delay or any
claim, demand, action or suit, in connection with or arising out of performance
of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, not resulting from the
willful malfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Administrator in the
performance of such obligations and duties.  The provisions of this
Section 10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.




7


10.1.1  If any action, suit
or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against the Administrator or any
such person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the General
Partner pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, the Administrator or such person
shall promptly notify the General Partner in writing of the institution of such
Proceeding and the General Partner shall assume the defense of such Proceeding,
including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission
to so notify the General Partner shall not relieve the General Partner from any
liability which they may have to the Administrator or any such person except to
the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and has not
otherwise learned of such Proceeding. The Administrator or such person shall
have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Administrator or of
such person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in
writing by the General Partner in connection with the defense of such Proceeding
or the General Partner shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in
light of the circumstances, employed counsel to have charge of the defense of
such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different
from, additional to or in conflict with those available to the General Partner
(in which case the General Partner shall not have the right to direct the
defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in
any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the General Partner
and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the General Partner
shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in
addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related
Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who
are parties to such Proceeding).




10.1.2  The General Partner
shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without the
General Partner’s written consent but if settled with the General Partner’s
written consent, the General Partner agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Administrator and any such person from and against any loss or liability by
reason of such settlement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if
at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to
reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated
by the second sentence of this paragraph, then the indemnifying party agrees
that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without
its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 Business
Days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii)
such indemnifying party shall not have fully reimbursed the indemnified party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such
indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 Business
Days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified
party.


8


10.2    Subject
to Sections 7, 8 and 9 of this Agreement, the Administrator agrees to indemnify
and hold harmless the General Partner and the Fund, its partners, stockholders,
members, directors, officers and employees and any Affiliate of the foregoing,
and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing persons, against any and
all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (including reasonable
counsel fees and expenses) resulting from any act, omission, error or delay or
any claim, demand, action or suit, in connection with or arising out of
performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, resulting from
the willful malfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Administrator in the
performance of such obligations and duties.  The provisions of this
Section 10 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.




10.2.1   If any
Proceeding is brought against the General Partner or any such person in respect
of which indemnity may be sought against the Administrator pursuant to the
foregoing paragraph, the General Partner or such person shall promptly notify
the Administrator in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the
Administrator shall assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the
employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and
payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so
notify the Administrator shall not relieve the Administrator from any liability
which they may have to the General Partner or any such person except to the
extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and has not
otherwise learned of such Proceeding. The General Partner or such person shall
have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the General Partner or
of such person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized
in writing by the Administrator in connection with the defense of such
Proceeding or the Administrator shall not have, within a reasonable period of
time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to have charge of the
defense of such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which
are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to the
Administrator (in which case the General Partner shall not have the right to
direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or
parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the
Administrator and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the
Administrator shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate
counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of
related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified
parties who are parties to such Proceeding).


9


10.2.2  The Administrator
shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without the
Administrator’s written consent but if settled with the Administrator’s written
consent, the Administrator agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the General
Partner and any such person from and against any loss or liability by reason of
such settlement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any
time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to
reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated
by the second sentence of this paragraph, then the indemnifying party agrees
that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without
its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 Business
Days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii)
such indemnifying party shall not have fully reimbursed the indemnified party in
accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such
indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 Business
Days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any
settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been
sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims
that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified
party.
