SECTION 4 INDEMNIFICATION 
 4.01.
Indemnification of SIDCO. The Sponsor hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless (on an as-incurred basis), SIDCO and each of its affiliates, officers, principals, representatives, directors,
employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls such persons(each, a “SIDCO Indemnified Party”) within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “1933 Act”) from and against any
loss, liability, damages, cost or expense incurred by such SIDCO Indemnified Party (including the reasonable cost of investigating or defending any alleged loss, liability, claim, damages, or expense and reasonable counsel fees and disbursements
incurred in connection therewith) as a result of SIDCO’s performance of the Services hereunder, including (i) any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking made by the Sponsor in this Agreement, (ii) a failure of
the Sponsor to perform any obligations set forth in this Agreement (including any written procedures prepared in connection with the performance of this Agreement), (iii) any failure by the Sponsor to comply with applicable laws, including any
failure to comply with the terms of any exemptive relief with respect to the Funds, (iv) any act or omission by or on behalf of the Sponsor involving bad faith, negligence or fraud, (v) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in any Prospectus or any document incorporated by reference therein or filed as an exhibit thereto, or any marketing literature or materials prepared by the Sponsor with respect to the securities covered by the Prospectus or
the 







 
omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (vi) the operation of a customer contact
center or similar call center by the Sponsor or one of its affiliates or agents, (vii) an Authorized Participant’s failure to initially or subsequently fulfill a Fund’s creditworthiness standards, (viii) the failure to apply or
the inaccurate application of a Fund’s creditworthiness standards; (ix) SIDCO’s reliance on information contained in an Authorized Trader Form; or (x) any claim by an Authorized Participant related to SIDCO’s services;
provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Sponsor be obligated to indemnify any SIDCO Indemnified Party to the extent that such loss, liability, damages, cost or expense was caused by the Gross Negligence, fraud or bad
faith of any SIDCO Indemnified Party. “Gross Negligence” means a conscious, voluntary act or omission in reckless disregard of a legal duty and the rights of, or consequences to, others, and not merely a lack of due care. 

4.02. Indemnification of the Sponsor and its affiliates. SIDCO hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless (on an as-incurred basis), the Sponsor and each of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls such persons within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (each,
an “Sponsor Indemnified Party”) from and against any loss, liability, damages, cost or expense incurred by such Sponsor Indemnified Party (including the reasonable cost of investigating or defending any alleged loss, liability,
claim, damages, or expense and reasonable counsel fees and disbursements incurred in connection therewith) as a result of (i) any failure by SIDCO to comply with any applicable laws, including but not limited to the NASD Conduct Rules, or
(ii) an action or omission of SIDCO involving Gross Negligence, bad faith or fraud by SIDCO. 
 4.03. Indemnification Procedures.
In case any such action, suit, proceeding or claim for which indemnity may be payable hereunder shall be brought against a SIDCO Indemnified Party or an Sponsor Indemnified Party, as applicable (an “Indemnified Party”), and such
Indemnified Party shall notify the applicable indemnifying party of the commencement thereof as promptly as practicable, such indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and to the extent that such indemnifying party shall wish to assume
the defense thereof, retain its own counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party, subject to the further provisions of this paragraph. After written notice from such indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election to so
assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying party shall not be liable to the applicable Indemnified Parties for any additional attorneys’ fees or other expenses of litigation, other than reasonable costs of investigation subsequently incurred
by such Indemnified Parties in connection with the defense thereof, unless (i) the employment of counsel by such Indemnified Parties has been authorized in writing by such indemnifying party, such authorization not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed; (ii) such Indemnified Parties shall have obtained a written opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to such indemnifying party that there exists a conflict of interest between such Indemnified Parties and the relevant party in the
conduct of the defense of such action or that there are one or more defenses available to such Indemnified Parties that are unavailable to such indemnifying party (in which case such indemnifying party shall not have the right to direct the defense
of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Parties); or (iii) such indemnifying party shall not in fact have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Parties to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases the
reasonable fees and expenses of counsel utilized by such Indemnified Parties shall be at the expense of such indemnifying party, it being understood, however, that such indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate
but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys for an Indemnified Party,
which firm shall be designated in writing by the Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under the circumstances described in clause (ii) above, the applicable Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to retain an additional law firm, in
any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, provided such Indemnified Parties have obtained a written opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party that a conflict of interest exists that would preclude the use of a single law firm, in which case the indemnifying party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel designated by
the Indemnified Parties in writing. All such fees and expenses which are at the expense of an indemnifying party hereunder shall be promptly paid by such indemnifying party. 







 4.04. Additional Provision Regarding Indemnification. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed as limiting an Indemnified Party’s rights to employ counsel at its own expense or to obtain indemnification for amounts reasonably paid to adverse claimants in satisfaction of any judgments or in settlement of any actions, suit,
proceeding or claims, except that no party hereto shall be liable for any settlement of any action, suit, proceeding or claim effected without its written consent. None of the parties hereto shall settle or compromise any action, suit, proceeding or
claim if such settlement or compromise provides for an admission of liability on the part of an Indemnified Party without such Indemnified Party’s written consent. 

SECTION 5 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 
 5.01.
Limitation of Liability. THE DUTIES OF SIDCO SHALL BE CONFINED TO THOSE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, AND NO IMPLIED DUTIES ARE ASSUMED BY OR MAY BE ASSERTED AGAINST SIDCO. SIDCO’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE SPONSOR WILL BE
LIMITED TO LOSSES ARISING OUT OF SIDCO’S OR ITS DELEGATE’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH, FRAUD, CRIMINAL MISCONDUCT OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT WHEN PROVIDING THE SERVICES. For the avoidance of doubt, SIDCO shall have no liability related to any
breach in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement due to (i) the failure or delay of the Sponsor, a Fund or either of their respective agents to perform its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) activities or statements
of sales or wholesaler personnel who are employed and supervised by the Sponsor or its affiliates, (iii) any act or omission of the Funds’ transfer agent or index receipt agent, (iv) any misstatement or omission in the Funds’
registration statement, prospectus, shareholder report or other information filed or made public by the Funds or the Sponsor (as amended from time to time), provided that such misstatement or omission was not made in reliance upon, and in conformity
with, information furnished to the Sponsor or the Funds by SIDCO or inserted due to the Gross Negligence or willful misconduct of SIDCO, (v) the operation of a customer contact center or similar call center by the Sponsor or one of its
affiliates or agents, (vi) mistakes or errors in data provided to SIDCO by, or interruptions or delays or communications with, any other service providers to the Funds, or (vii) actions taken pursuant to any instruction (whether written or
verbal) which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or given by the proper person or persons. Each party shall have the duty to mitigate its damages for which another party may become responsible. As used in this
Section 5, the term “SIDCO” shall include the officers, directors, employees, affiliates and agents of SIDCO as well as that entity itself. 

5.02. Consequential Damages. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE
LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR OTHER NON-DIRECT DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHETHER SUCH LIABILITY IS PREDICATED ON CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY AND
REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE PARTY IS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH DAMAGES. 
 SECTION 6 TERM AND TERMINATION 

6.01. Initial Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and continue in full force and effect, unless
