Performance of Service; Limitation of Liability A. PFS shall exercise reasonable care in the performance of its duties under this Agreement. PFS shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Trust in connection with matters to which this Agreement relates, including losses resulting from mechanical breakdowns or the failure of communication or power supplies beyond PFS's control, except a loss arising out of or relating to PFS's refusal or failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or from bad faith, negligence, or willful misconduct on its part in the performance of its duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if PFS has exercised reasonable care in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless PFS from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities (whether with or without basis in fact or law) of any and every nature (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which PFS may sustain or incur or which may be asserted against PFS by any person arising out of any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in performing the services hereunder, except for any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities arising out of or relating to PFS's refusal or failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or from bad faith, negligence or from willful misconduct on its part in performance of its duties under this Agreement, (i) in accordance with the foregoing standards, or (ii) in reliance upon any written or oral instruction provided to PFS by any duly authorized officer of the Trust, such duly authorized officer to be included in a list of authorized officers furnished to PFS and as amended from time to time in writing by resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. PFS shall indemnify and hold the Trust harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities (whether with or without basis in fact or law) of any and every nature (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which the Trust may sustain or incur or which may be asserted against the Trust by any person arising out of any action taken or omitted to be taken by PFS as a result of PFS's refusal or failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, its bad faith, negligence, or willful misconduct. In the event of a mechanical breakdown or failure of communication or power supplies beyond its control, PFS shall take all reasonable steps to minimize service interruptions for any period that such interruption continues beyond PFS's control. PFS will make every reasonable effort to restore any lost or damaged data and correct any errors resulting from such a breakdown at the expense of PFS. PFS agrees that it shall, at all times, have reasonable contingency plans with appropriate parties, making reasonable provision for emergency use of electrical data processing equipment to the extent appropriate equipment is available. Representatives of the Trust shall be entitled to inspect PFS's premises and operating capabilities at any time during regular business hours of PFS, upon reasonable notice to PFS. B. In order that the indemnification provisions contained in this section shall apply, it is understood that if in any case the indemnitor may be asked to indemnify or hold the indemnitee harmless, the indemnitor shall be fully and promptly advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and it is further understood that the indemnitee will use all reasonable care to notify the indemnitor promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears likely to present the probability of a claim for indemnification. The indemnitor shall have the option to defend the indemnitee against any claim which may be the subject of this indemnification. In the event that the indemnitor so elects, it will so notify the indemnitee and thereupon the indemnitor shall take over complete defense of the claim, and the indemnitee shall in such situation initiate no further legal or other expenses for which it shall seek indemnification under this section. The indemnitee shall in no case confess any claim or make any compromise in any case in which the indemnitor will be asked to indemnify the indemnitee except with the indemnitor's prior written consent. C. PFS is hereby expressly put on notice of the limitation of shareholder, Trustee, officer, employee or agent liability as set forth in the Declaration of Trust of the Trust and agrees that obligations assumed by the Trust pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited in all cases to the Trust and its assets, and if the liability relates to one or more Funds, the obligations hereunder shall be limited to the respective assets of such Fund. PFS further agrees that it shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligation from any shareholder of a Fund, nor from any Trustee, officer, employee or agent of the Trust.
