In particular, the Trust, will bear all Trust expenses that are incurred by the Trust, or by the Administrator on the Trust’s behalf (e.g., typesetting, XBRL-tagging, page changes and all other print vendor and EDGAR charges), in its operation unless otherwise assumed by the Administrator, including as part of the services or as otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the Trust and the Administrator.

From time to time, the Administrator is authorized to and may employ, associate or contract with such person or persons as the Administrator may deem desirable to assist it in performing its duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the compensation of such person or persons shall be paid by the Administrator and that the Administrator shall be as fully responsible to the Trust for the acts and omissions of any such person or persons as it is for its own acts and omissions. As mutually agreed by the Trust and the Administrator, but in any event at least annually, the Administrator shall discuss with the Trust any assistance the Administrator has deemed desirable in performing its duties under this Agreement.

Proper Instructions and Advice

a. The Trust or any other person duly authorized by the Trust shall communicate to the Administrator by means of Proper Instructions (as defined in Section 7.a. below). Proper Instructions shall mean (i) a writing signed or initialed by one or more persons as an officer or trustee of the Trust (references to officers and/or trustees of the Trust as used herein shall be deemed to include officers and/or trustees/directors of the Sponsor), or the delegate thereof, shall have from time to time authorized or (ii) communication effected directly between the Trust or its third-party agents and the Administrator by electro-mechanical or electronic devices, provided that the Trust and the Administrator agree to security procedures. The Administrator may rely upon any Proper Instruction reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been properly issued by or on behalf of the Trust. Oral instructions shall be considered Proper Instructions if the Administrator reasonably believes them to have been given by a person authorized to give such instructions; provided, however, that the Trust shall cause all authorized oral instructions to be confirmed in accordance with clauses (i) or (ii) above, as appropriate.

b. At any time, the Administrator may apply to any officer of the Trust or his or her designee for instructions and may consult with the independent accountants for the Trust, with respect to any matter arising in connection with the services to be performed by the Administrator under this Agreement. Where circumstances arise that the Administrator believes advice from counsel may be necessary, the Administrator will notify the Trust. The Administrator shall be entitled to rely on and may act upon advice of counsel (who may be counsel for the Trust) on all matters, and shall be without liability for any action reasonably taken or omitted pursuant to such advice provided, however, with respect to the performance of any action or omission of any action upon such advice, the Administrator shall be acting within the standard of care set forth in Section 8. The Administrator shall promptly notify the Trust of the receipt of such advice. The

-5-

Administrator shall not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any person until receipt of written notice thereof from the Trust. Nothing in this section shall be construed as imposing upon the Administrator any obligation to seek instructions or advice.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

The Administrator shall be responsible for the performance only of such duties as are set forth in this Agreement and, except as otherwise provided under Section 6, shall have no responsibility for the actions or activities of any other party, including other service providers. The Administrator shall at all times act in good faith and without negligence and agrees to exercise the care and expertise of a leading provider of fund administration and fund accounting services in carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and use all reasonable efforts in performing the services under this Agreement. The Administrator shall be kept indemnified by and shall be without liability to the Trust for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection with the provision of services hereunder, provided that the Administrator shall not be indemnified against any liability (or any expenses incident to such liability) arising out of the Administrator’s own bad faith, negligence, willful misconduct or disregard of its duties and obligations under this Agreement. The Administrator shall have no liability in respect of any loss, damage or expense suffered by the Trust insofar as such loss, damage or expense arises directly from the performance of the Administrator’s duties hereunder in reliance upon records that were maintained for the Trust by entities other than the Administrator prior to the Administrator’s appointment as administrator for the Trust (“Prior Records”) except as may arise from Administrator’s own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of an agent of the Administrator provided that the Administrator shall notify the Trust as soon as practicable after becoming aware in the course of performing its duties hereunder of an error or incomplete information in such Prior Records. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrator shall have no responsibility to review, confirm or otherwise verify the accuracy or completeness of any Prior Records. The Administrator shall have no liability for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss or damage resulting from the performance or nonperformance of its duties hereunder except to the extent arising directly from the failure to exercise the standard of care set out in this Section 8 or the bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrator, its agents, officers or employees.

Except as may arise from the Administrator’s failure to exercise its standard of care, the Administrator shall not be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond its control, including without limitation, work stoppage, power or other mechanical failure, computer virus, natural disaster, governmental action or communication disruption.

The Administrator shall, at no additional expense to the Trust, take reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions in the event of equipment failure, work stoppage, governmental action, communication disruption or other impossibility of performance beyond the Administrator’s control. The Administrator shall enter into and shall maintain in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement with appropriate parties one or more agreements making reasonable provision, at a level the Administrator believes consistent with other similarly situated providers of fund administration services, for (i) periodic back-up of the computer files

-6-

and data with respect to the Trust and (ii) emergency use of electronic data processing equipment to provide services under this Agreement. Upon reasonable request, the Administrator shall discuss with the Trust any business continuity/disaster recovery plan of the Administrator and/or provide a high-level presentation summarizing such plan.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, neither party shall be liable for any indirect, special or consequential damages; provided that the foregoing limitation shall not apply with respect to damages or claims arising out of or relating to that party’s fraud or willful misconduct.

In any event, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties hereto, the Administrator’s cumulative liability for each calendar year (a “Liability Period”) with respect to the Trust under this Agreement regardless of the form of action or legal theory shall be limited to its total annual compensation earned and fees payable hereunder during the preceding Compensation Period, as defined herein, for any liability or loss suffered by the Trust including, but not limited to, any liability relating to qualification of the Trust as a regulated investment company or any liability relating to the Trust’s compliance with any federal or state tax or securities statute, regulation or ruling during such Liability Period. “Compensation Period” shall mean the calendar year ending immediately prior to each Liability Period in which the event(s) giving rise to the Administrator’s liability for that period have occurred. For any partial first year, the annual cumulative liability hereunder shall be the Administrator’s total compensation earned and fees payable hereunder during such partial first year on an annualized basis.

The limitation of liability and indemnification contained herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

Confidentiality

The parties hereto agree that each shall treat confidentially all information provided by each party to the other party regarding its business and operations, including information related to the development of new Trusts or new series. The Administrator shall treat confidentially all information obtained in the ordinary course of performing its duties hereunder about the Trust’s prior, present or potential shareholders or relative to the advisor or distributor and their prior, present or potential customers (including all “personal information” described in Section 17 of this Agreement). All confidential information provided by a party hereto shall be used by any other party hereto solely for the purpose of rendering or receiving services pursuant to this Agreement and, except as may be required in carrying out this Agreement, shall not be disclosed to any third party. The foregoing shall not be applicable to any information (i) that is publicly available when provided or thereafter becomes publicly available, other than through a breach of this Agreement, (ii) that is independently derived by either party hereto without the use of any information provided by the other party hereto in connection with this Agreement, (iii) that is disclosed, upon prior notice to the party whose information is being disclosed (to the extent such notice is permissible), in the manner and to the extent required in any legal or regulatory proceeding, investigation, audit, examination, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other similar process, or by operation of law or regulation, or (iv) where the party seeking to disclose has received the prior written consent of the party providing the information, which consent shall

-7-

not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party acknowledges that the other party may provide access to and use of confidential information relating to the other party to the disclosing party’s employees, contractors, agents, professional advisors, auditors or persons performing similar functions, as necessary solely for the purpose of rendering services under this Agreement, provided that each person or entity shall be subject to confidentiality obligations substantially similar to those set forth herein. Further, each party agrees and represents that in no case would information it receives under this Agreement be used against the other party in a manner that is adverse to the other party’s interests (including the other party’s interests in competitive businesses). Nothing herein shall prohibit or restrict the right of each party (or its affiliates) to develop, use or market products or services similar to or competitive with those of the other party (or its affiliates) provided that any such development, use or marketing does not violate the confidentiality obligations set forth herein. Additionally, each party acknowledges that the other party (or its affiliates) may already possess or have developed products or services similar to or competitive with those of the other party.

The Administrator will employ reasonable safeguards designed to protect the Trust’s confidential information, which may include but are not limited to the use of encryption technologies, passwords and any other safeguards the Administrator may choose to employ. If either party becomes aware of a breach of this confidentiality provision, it will notify promptly the other party of such breach and provide such details as it deems appropriate and in accordance with the standard of care hereunder regarding the extent of the breach of confidentiality.

To the extent reasonably possible, shareholder information made available to third parties by the Administrator will be provided on a non-disclosed basis (that is, without information disclosing the identity of the shareholder). The Administrator affirms that it has, and will continue to have throughout the term of this Agreement, procedures in place that are reasonably designed to protect the privacy of non-public personal consumer/customer financial information to the extent required by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

The undertakings and obligations contained in this Section shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

10.

Compliance with Governmental Rules and Regulations; Records

The Administrator agrees to perform its duties hereunder in accordance with applicable law; however, the Administrator assumes no responsibility for ensuring that the Trust complies with all securities, tax, commodities and other laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Trust.

The Administrator agrees that all records which it maintains for the Trust shall at all times remain the property of the Trust, shall be readily accessible during normal business hours, and shall be promptly surrendered upon the termination of the Agreement or otherwise on written request except as otherwise provided in Section 12. Records may be surrendered in either written or machine-readable form, at the option of the Administrator. Upon the reasonable request of the Trust, copies of any such books and records shall be provided by the Administrator.

11.

Services Not Exclusive

The services of the Administrator are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Administrator shall be free to render similar services to others. The Administrator shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided herein or authorized by the Trust from time to time, have no authority to act or represent the Trust in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Trust.

12.

Effective Period and Termination

This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for an initial term ending March 31, 2019 (the “Initial Term”). After the expiration of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless a written notice of non-renewal is delivered by the non-renewing party no later than ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as the case may be. During the Initial Term and thereafter, either party may terminate this Agreement: (i) in the event of the other party’s material breach of a material provision of this Agreement that the other party has either (a) failed to cure or (b) failed to establish a remedial plan to cure that is reasonably acceptable, within 60 days’ written notice of such breach, (ii) in the event of the appointment of a conservator or receiver for the other party or upon the happening of a like event to the other party at the direction of an appropriate agency or court of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) based upon the Trust’s determination that there is a reasonable basis to conclude that the Administrator is insolvent or that the financial condition of the Administrator is deteriorating in any material respect.

Upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section with respect to the Trust, the Trust shall pay the Administrator its compensation due and shall reimburse the Administrator for its costs, expenses and disbursements except, if termination is based on termination for a material breach of this Agreement coupled with the Administrator’s failure to meet its standard of care under this Agreement, less any losses or damages caused by such event.

Termination of this Agreement with respect to any one particular Trust shall in no way affect the rights and duties under this Agreement with respect any other Trust.

As soon as reasonably practicable following the termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Administrator agrees to transfer such records and related supporting documentation as are held by it under this Agreement to any replacement provider of the services or to such other person as the Trust may direct. If directed by the Trust, the Administrator will provide the services hereunder until a replacement administrator is in place, for a reasonable period of time up to nine (9) months, subject to the terms of this Agreement, including compensation. The Administrator will also provide reasonable assistance to its successor, for such transfer, subject to the payment of such reasonable expenses and charges as the Administrator customarily charges for such assistance.
