Any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus or offering document of a Fund or arising out of or based upon any alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in any prospectus or offering document or necessary to make the statements in any prospectus or offering document not misleading, unless such statement or omission was made in reliance upon, and in conformity with, information furnished in writing to the Fund by HASI specifically for use in the prospectus or offering document;

(iii)

Any act or omission of a Fund whose instruction or data, including records, reports and other information, including but not limited to information with respect to valuation and verification of assets, but excluding any data prepared by HASI or its agents or subcontractors, HASI must rely upon in performing its duties hereunder, or as a result of acting upon any instructions reasonably believed by HASI to have been duly authorized by a Fund or an authorized person of a Fund;

Section 10.

Term.

(a) Term. This Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and have an initial term of three (3) years from the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”) and will thereafter continue in effect indefinitely unless it is terminated pursuant to clause 10(b).

(b) Termination. Subject to clause 10(c):

(i)

Either party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause, but only after the expiration of the Initial Term, by giving the other party 90 days’ written notice.

(ii)

Either party may terminate this Agreement with cause on at least thirty (30) days’ written notice to the other party if the other party has materially breached any of its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that (i) the termination notice will describe the breach; (ii) no such termination will be effective if the breach is cured within thirty days’ notice; (iii) a material breach shall include failure to satisfy any agreed upon service level described in Exhibit F; and (iv) subject to applicable law, no such thirty (30) day notice period shall be required in the event the other party is insolvent or has submitted a voluntary petition for administration.

the other party no longer being permitted or able to perform its obligations under this Agreement pursuant to applicable law or regulation.

(iv)

This Agreement may be terminated by HASI immediately based on HASI’s reasonable opinion that the Trust has violated any law to which the Trust is subject.

(v)

Capitol Series Trust		9		Huntington Asset Services, Inc.

(i)

If the Trust has terminated this Agreement without cause during the Initial Term, the Trust will pay HASI as liquidated damages for such default, an amount equal to the balance that would be due HASI for its services under this Agreement during the Initial Term (“Liquidated Damages”). In the event that the Trust is, in part or in whole, liquidated, dissolved, merged into a third party, acquired by a third party, or involved in any other transaction that materially reduces the assets and/or accounts serviced by HASI pursuant to this Agreement, the Liquidated Damages provision set forth above will apply, and will be adjusted ratably if any of the events described above is partial. Any Liquidated Damages amount payable to HASI will be payable on or before the date of the event that triggers the payment obligation. Inasmuch as a default by the Trust will cause substantial damages to HASI and because of the difficulty of estimating the damages that will result, the parties agree that the Liquidated Damages is a reasonable forecast of probable actual loss to HASI and that this sum is agreed to as Liquidated Damages and not as a penalty.

(ii)

Upon termination, HASI will, at the expense and direction of the Trust, transfer to the Trust or any successor service provider(s) to the Trust copies of all Trust records, subject to the payment by the Trust of unpaid and undisputed amounts due to HASI hereunder, including any Liquidated Damages. If by the termination date the Trust has not given instructions to deliver the Trust records, HASI will keep the Trust Records until the Trust provides instructions to deliver the Trust records, provided that HASI will be entitled to charge the Trust then-standard fees for maintaining the Trust records.

•

Notwithstanding any provision of the AGREEMENT or any other agreement or instrument that expressly or by implication provides to the contrary, (a) it is expressly agreed and acknowledged that HASI cannot ensure that the Trust complies with all Applicable Law, and (b) whenever an employee or agent of HASI (or its Affiliates) serves as a Trust Officer, as long as that Trust Officer acts in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the Trust (and would not otherwise be liable to the Trust by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office), the Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless that Trust Officer from and against any and all actions, suits, claims, losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel feels and disbursements, payments, expenses and liabilities (collectively “Losses”) incurred arising out of or related to the service of such employee or agent of HASI as an Officer of the Trust.
