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 B hereto.

9.1           Portfolio Compliance Monitoring.  The compliance monitoring of the investments of the Fund with respect to investment restrictions and policies is subject to parameters that may vary over time and which may be beyond the control or knowledge of the Administrator. Consequently, the results of the monitoring as notified by the Administrator to the Fund are to be considered an indication of possible non-compliance with the investment restrictions and policies of the Fund rather than an affirmative statement as to non-compliance with the investment restrictions and policies. Moreover, the Administrator may not detect a breach and consequently might not notify the Fund thereof if information or data in its possession is inaccurate, incomplete or ambiguous.  The Administrator has no discretion over the Fund’s assets or choice of investments and shall not be liable for issues relating to such investment decisions.  In addition, the Fund agrees that the Administrator shall not be liable for the accuracy, completeness or use of any information or data that CRD (as defined in Appendix B hereof) or any other compliance system used by the Administrator generates in connection with such administrative compliance monitoring on any given date.

9.2           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

7

fund accounting obligations and duties shall be limited to the amount of any expenses associated with a required recalculation of net asset value per share (“NAV”) or any losses, damages and expenses suffered by the Fund and its shareholders in connection with such recalculation.  The Administrator’s liability or accountability for such acts, omissions, errors or delays shall be further subject to clauses 9.2.1 through 9.2.3 below.

9.2.1.       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 Administrator shall be liable and the recalculation of NAV shall be performed  only with regard to errors in the calculation of the NAV that are greater than or equal to $.01 per share of the Fund or greater than or equal to 1/2% of the total net assets of the Fund.

9.2.2.       The Administrator shall not be held accountable or liable to the Fund, any shareholder or former shareholder 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 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, but not limited to, the fair value pricing procedures of the Fund and those sources listed on Appendix D), or (b) from a source which in the Administrator’s reasonable judgment was as reliable a source for such quotations or information as such

8

authorized sources or (c) errors in the computation of NAV as a result of relevant information known to the Fund or its service provider which would impact the calculation of NAV but which is not communicated by the Fund or its service providers to the Administrator.  For purposes of clause (i) above, receipt by the Administrator in its capacity as custodian of Fund assets shall constitute receipt by the Administrator.

9.2.3.       In the event of any error or delay in the determination of such NAV for which the Administrator may be liable, 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 shareholders.  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 Fund and the Administrator will consider such relevant factors as the amount of the loss involved, the Fund’s desire to avoid loss of shareholder good will, 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 shareholders or former shareholders 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.  The Fund hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrator against and hold it harmless from 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, in good faith, 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.

9

11.                                 Reliance by the Administrator on Opinions of Counsel. The Administrator may consult with the Fund’s counsel in any case where so doing appears to the Administrator to be necessary or desirable. The Fund shall indemnify the Administrator against and save the Administrator harmless from any loss, damage or expense, or reasonable attorneys fees arising from any action reasonably taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrator in good faith in accordance with the written advice or opinion of counsel for the Fund.

12.                                 Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be terminated by either party in accordance with the provisions of this Section 12.

The Administrator shall be responsible for completing all actions in progress when such termination notice is given unless otherwise agreed.
