Any

records retained by Northern shall be subject to observance of its confidentiality obligations under this Agreement.

     5. FEES AND EXPENSES.

          (a) As compensation for the services rendered to a Fund pursuant to this Agreement, the Fund shall cause to be paid to Northern the fees set out in Schedule B to this Agreement with respect to such Fund in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If fees begin to accrue in the middle of a month or if this Agreement terminates before the end of any month, all fees for the period from such mid-month date to the end of that month or from the beginning of that month to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be prorated according to the proportion that the period bears to the full month in which the effectiveness or termination occurs. Upon the termination of this Agreement, each Fund shall pay to the Transfer Agent such compensation as shall be due and payable by such Fund as of the effective date of termination.

          (b) For the purpose of determining fees calculated as a function of a Fund’s assets, the value of the Fund’s assets and net assets shall be computed as required by its Prospectus, generally accepted accounting principles, and resolutions of the Board.

          (c) Each Fund may request additional services, additional processing, or special reports (“Additional Services”) which are not contemplated in this Agreement, and will provide such specifications and requirements of said Additional Services, as Northern may request for the purpose of evaluating the request for Additional Services. If Northern elects to provide such Additional Services or arranges for such Additional Services to be provided, it shall be entitled to additional fees and expenses at such customary rates and charges as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties in writing.

          (d) Northern will bear its own expenses in connection with the performance of the services under this Agreement, except as provided herein or as agreed to by the parties in writing in the fee schedule as amended from time to time. Each Fund agrees to reimburse Northern for any equipment or supplies ordered by or for the Fund through Northern and for any other expenses that Northern may reasonably incur on the Fund’s behalf, at the Fund’s request or as consented to by the Fund in writing. Northern agrees to notify the Fund of any such expenses that exceed $2,500 as soon as reasonably practical. In addition, Northern may utilize one or more independent pricing services authorized and approved by a Fund in writing to obtain securities prices and to act as backup to the primary pricing services utilized by Northern in connection with determining the net asset values of the Fund. Each Fund will reimburse Northern for its share of the cost of such services based upon the actual usage by each Fund of the independent pricing services for the benefit of that Fund. All fees, out-of-pocket expenses, or additional charges of Northern payable by a Fund under this Section 5 and Schedule B shall be billed to the Fund on a quarterly basis and shall be due and payable by the Fund within a reasonable period of time after receipt of the invoice by the Fund; provided that no amounts under this Agreement shall be payable or begin to accrue with respect to a Fund, until the earlier of (i) the closing of the Fund’s offering or subscription period and (ii) the offering of the Fund’s shares to the public after the effectiveness of its Registration Statement. If for any reason a Fund does not close the offering of its shares after a subscription period or a Fund’s Registration Statement either does not become

effective or the Fund does not offer and sell its shares to the public after its Registration Statement becomes effective, no amounts under this Agreement, including fees, out-of pocket expenses or additional charges of Northern, shall be accrued or payable by such Fund, or the Trust with respect to such Fund, at any time.

          (e) In the event that a Fund is more than one hundred twenty (120) days’ delinquent in its payments of quarterly ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in connection with this Agreement (with the exception of specific amounts which may be contested in good faith by the Fund), this Agreement may be terminated with respect to such Fund upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Fund by Northern. Each Fund must notify Northern in writing of any contested amounts within sixty (60) days of receipt of an invoice for such amounts. Disputed amounts are not due and payable while they are being contested.

     6. DUTIES, RESPONSIBILITIES AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

          (a) Northern shall be responsible for the performance of only such duties, obligations and services as are set forth in this Agreement.

               (vi) provide the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and its Trustees and CCO with such certifications as may be reasonably requested by the Fund; and

               (vii) reasonably cooperate with each Fund’s independent public accountants and shall take all reasonable action in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement to assure that access to all reasonably necessary information and the appropriate personnel are made available to such accountants, to support the expression of the accountant’s opinion and their review of the appropriate internal controls and operations, as such may be required from time to time.

          (e) Upon request of a Fund, Northern shall provide such information and records in its possession relating to the Fund that the Fund may require, and shall cooperate with the Fund, in order for the Fund to respond to inquiries and requests for information by its regulators.

          (g) Northern hereby agrees to, subsequent to the date hereof, promptly notify the Trust on behalf of each Fund if Northern determines that it is no longer able to perform the services hereunder or that its ability to provide the services hereunder has been materially impaired.

          (h) Northern hereby agrees to, subsequent to the date hereof, promptly notify the Trust on behalf of each Fund (i) if an involuntary proceeding shall be commenced or an involuntary petition shall be filed seeking (a) liquidation, reorganization or other relief in respect of Northern or its debts, or of a substantial part of

its assets, under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or (b) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for Northern or for a substantial part of its assets, and, in any such case, such proceeding or petition shall continue undismissed and unstayed for a period of 60 or more days or an order or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered, or (ii) if Northern shall (a) voluntarily commence any proceeding or file any petition seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, (b) consent to the institution of, or fail to contest in a timely and appropriate manner, any proceeding or petition described in clause (i), (c) apply for or consent to the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for Northern or for a substantial part of its assets, (d) file an answer admitting the material allegations of a petition filed against it in any proceeding, (e) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or (f) take any action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing (clauses (i) and (ii), each a “Northern Bankruptcy Event”).

          (i) Northern hereby agrees to provide to each Fund’s distributor in a timely and accurate manner all such information that is in Northern’s possession (and in such reasonable medium) that the Fund’s distributor may reasonably request that may be necessary for such distributor to perform its duties for the Fund under the applicable distribution agreement.

     8. CONFIDENTIALITY.

          (a) During the term of this Agreement, Northern and a Fund may have access to confidential information relating to matters such as either party’s business, trade secrets, systems, procedures, manuals, products, contracts, personnel, and clients. As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information belonging to Northern or a Fund which is of value to such party and the disclosure of which could result in a competitive or other disadvantage to the non-disclosing party, including, without limitation, financial information, business practices and policies, know-how, trade secrets, market or sales information or plans, customer lists, business plans, and all provisions of this Agreement. Confidential Information includes information developed by either party in the course of engaging in the activities provided for in this Agreement, unless: (i) the information is or becomes publicly known, of which the party receiving the information should reasonably be aware, without breach of this Agreement, (ii) the information is disclosed to the other party by a third party not under an obligation of confidentiality to the party whose Confidential Information is at issue of which the party receiving the information should reasonably be aware, or (iii) the information is independently developed by a party from information received by a third party not under an obligation of confidentiality to the party whose Confidential Information is at issue on a non-confidential basis of which the party who developed the information should reasonably be aware. Each party will protect the other’s Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care it uses with respect to its own Confidential Information, and will not use the other party’s Confidential Information other than in connection with its duties and obligations hereunder. Each party hereby agrees not to disclose any Confidential Information other than to those of its officers, directors, employees, advisors

and representatives (collectively, “Representatives”) with a need to know the information contained therein and are under an obligation to maintain its confidentiality. Each party hereby acknowledges that it may receive material non-public information regarding securities in connection with this Agreement and agrees that it is aware, and that it will advise its Representatives, that the United States securities laws prohibit any person who has received material, non-public information concerning securities from purchasing or selling the securities of any issuer, or from communicating such information to any other person under circumstances in which it is reasonably foreseeable that such person is likely to purchase or sell such securities.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose the other’s Confidential Information if (i) required by law, regulation or legal process or if requested by any regulatory agency with jurisdiction over Northern, the Trust or the Fund, as applicable; (ii) it is advised by counsel that it may incur liability for failure to make such disclosure; or (iii) requested to by the other party or (iv) necessary to perform the services hereunder; provided that in the event of (i) or (ii) the disclosing party shall give, to the extent permitted under applicable law, the other party reasonable prior notice of such disclosure to the extent reasonably practicable and shall reasonably cooperate with the other party (at such other party’s expense) in any efforts to prevent such disclosure.

          (c) In the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure by a party of any Confidential Information of the other party, the disclosing party shall promptly (i) notify the other party of the unauthorized use or disclosure; (ii) take all reasonable actions to limit the adverse effect on the other party of such unauthorized use or disclosure; and (iii) take all reasonable action to protect against a recurrence of the unauthorized use or disclosure.

     9. NOTICES. Any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective on the date of personal delivery (by private messenger, courier service or otherwise) or upon confirmed receipt of telex or facsimile, whichever occurs first, or upon receipt if by mail to the parties at the following address (or such other address as a party may specify by notice to the other):

     10. WAIVER. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver nor shall it deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to the term of any term of this Agreement. Any waiver must be in writing signed by the waiving party.

     11. FORCE MAJEURE. Subject to Section 7(f), Northern shall not be responsible or liable for any harm, loss or damage suffered by a Fund, its shareholders, or other third parties or for any failure or delay in performance of Northern’s duties, obligations or services under this Agreement arising out of or caused, directly or indirectly, by circumstances beyond Northern’s control. In the event of a force majeure, any harm, loss, damage, failure or delay by Northern as a result of such force majeure will not give the Fund the right to terminate this Agreement.

     12. USE OF NAME. Northern will obtain the prior written consent of a Fund before using the name of the Fund, the Trust, or any of their respective affiliates, or any of the Fund’s materials in Northern’s materials.

     13. AMENDMENTS. This contract is a separate contract with respect to each Fund. This Agreement may be modified or amended with respect to a Fund from time to time by mutual written agreement between Northern and such Fund. No provision of this Agreement may be changed, discharged, or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, discharge or termination is sought.

     14. TERM.

          (a) This Agreement shall become effective with respect to each Fund listed on Schedule A hereof as of the date specified on Schedule A. Unless sooner terminated as provided under this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue in effect for three years from the date hereof (the “Initial Term”). Thereafter, if not terminated, this Agreement shall continue automatically in effect as to each Fund for successive one-year periods (each such year-to-year renewal term a “Renewal Term”), provided such continuance is approved by the Board of Trustees. Ninety (90) days before the expiration of the Initial Term or a Renewal Term, the parties to this Agreement will agree upon a Fee Schedule for the upcoming Renewal Term. Otherwise, the fee for any Renewal Term shall equal the fees then in place for the Initial Term or the prior Renewal Term, as applicable.

          (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated, without the payment of any penalty, with respect to a particular Fund (i) through a failure to renew this Agreement at the end of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term or (ii) upon mutual consent of the parties. Further, this Agreement may be terminated (x) in the event of a Fund’s reasonable dissatisfaction with Northern’s services under this Agreement upon no less than 60 days’ written notice by the Trust with respect to a Fund, provided, however, that in such case the Fund shall give notice to Northern specifying the nature of

the dissatisfaction in sufficient detail to permit Northern to identify and attempt to cure such dissatisfaction and if Northern fails to cure such dissatisfaction within 60 days of receipt of such notice the Fund may terminate this Agreement immediately, (y) or upon 180 days’ prior written notice by Northern to the Fund.
