(b)

Prior to each of the quarterly and annual reviews which will take place pursuant to this Section 6.3, the Sponsor and the Marketing Agent will jointly prepare and circulate among the parties, a report covering the quarterly or annual period which is the subject of each review, with such report to cover such topics described above.

6.5 Marketing Materials.

In addition, appropriate personnel of the Marketing Agent shall review all sales and marketing materials and presentations relating to the Fund for compliance with applicable laws, file such materials with FINRA to the extent necessary or appropriate, and seek FINRA comment on such materials.

6.6 Information Provided to Marketing Agent. In performing its duties hereunder, the Marketing Agent shall be entitled to rely on and shall not be responsible in any way for information provided to it by the Sponsor and its service providers and shall not be liable or responsible for the errors and omissions of such service providers, provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to protect the Marketing Agent against any liability to the Sponsor or the Fund to which the Marketing Agent would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

6.7 Conditions to Marketing Agent’s Obligations.

The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements by the Sponsor set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on behalf of the Marketing Agent or any controlling Person of the Marketing Agent, or the Sponsor, or any officer or director or any controlling Person thereof, and shall survive the execution, delivery, performance and termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 7

INDEMNIFICATION

7.1 Indemnification of Marketing Agent. The Sponsor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Marketing Agent, its partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers and employees of the foregoing, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing Persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which the Marketing Agent or any such Person may incur under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon:

(a)

any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended or supplement) or in a Prospectus (the term Prospectus for the purpose of this Section 7 being deemed to include the Prospectus and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented), or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated in either such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or necessary to make the statements made therein not misleading, except insofar as any such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in and in conformity with information concerning the Marketing Agent furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Marketing Agent to the Sponsor expressly for use in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus;

(b)

any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or breach by the Sponsor of any representation or warranty contained in Section 2 hereof or in any certificate delivered by the Sponsor pursuant to paragraph (o) of Section 5.1 hereof;

(c)

the failure by the Sponsor to perform when and as required any agreement or covenant contained herein;

(d)

any untrue statement of any material fact contained in any audio or visual materials provided by the Sponsor or based upon written information furnished by or on behalf of the Sponsor including, without limitation, slides, videos, films or tape recordings used in connection with the marketing of the Units;

(e)

the Marketing Agent’s performance of its duties under this Agreement except in the case of this clause (e), for any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Marketing Agent; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in clause (a) above with respect to any amended Preliminary Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of the Marketing Agent (or to the benefit of any Person controlling the Marketing Agent) if the Prospectus corrected any such alleged untrue statement or omission in any case where the Marketing Agent was required to send or give a copy of the Prospectus to such Person by the 1933 Act, the Sponsor had notified the Marketing Agent of the amendment or supplement prior to the sending of the written confirmation of sale and the Marketing Agent failed to send or give a copy of the Prospectus to such Person, unless the failure is the result of noncompliance by the Sponsor with paragraph (c) of Section 5.1 hereof.

In no case is the indemnity of the Sponsor in favor of the Marketing Agent and such other Persons as are specified in this Section 7.1 to be deemed to protect the Marketing Agent and such Persons against any liability to the Sponsor or the Fund to which the Marketing Agent would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

If any action, suit or proceeding (each, a “Proceeding”) is brought against the Marketing Agent or any such Person in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Sponsor pursuant to the foregoing paragraphs, the Marketing Agent or such Person shall promptly notify the Sponsor in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the Sponsor shall have the right, by providing notice to the Marketing Agent or such Person within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, to assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify the Sponsor shall not relieve the Sponsor from any liability which it may have to the Marketing Agent or any such Person except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and has not otherwise learned of such Proceeding. If the Sponsor assumes the defense of the Proceeding, the Marketing Agent or such Person shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Marketing Agent or of such Person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Sponsor in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the Sponsor shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from, additional to or in conflict with those available to the Sponsor (in which case the Sponsor shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Sponsor and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the Sponsor shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding).

The Sponsor shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Sponsor’s written consent but if settled with the Sponsor’s written consent, the Sponsor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Marketing Agent and any such Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, then the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have fully reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

7.2 The Marketing Agent agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each of the Trust, the Fund, the Sponsor, their partners, members, directors, officers and employees, holders of Units, and any Person who controls the Sponsor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and the successors and assigns of all of the foregoing Persons, from and against any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim (including the reasonable cost of investigation) which the Sponsor any such Person may incur under the 1933 Act, the Exchange Act, the common law or otherwise, insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in and in conformity with information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Marketing Agent to the Sponsor expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or in the Registration Statement as amended or supplemented by any post-effective amendment thereof) or in a Prospectus, or arises out of or is based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in connection with such information required to be stated in such Registration Statement or such Prospectus or necessary to make such information not misleading.

The Marketing Agent will also indemnify the Sponsor as stated above insofar as such loss, damage, expense, liability or claim arises out of or is based upon the Marketing Agent’s performance of its duties under this Agreement, except in the case of any loss, damage, expense, liability or claim resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Sponsor. In no case is the indemnity of the Marketing Agent in favor of the Sponsor to be deemed to protect the Sponsor and such Persons against any liability to the Marketing Agent to which the Sponsor would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

If any Proceeding is brought against the Sponsor or any Person referred to in the preceding paragraphs in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Marketing Agent pursuant to the foregoing paragraph, the Sponsor or such Person shall promptly notify the Marketing Agent in writing of the institution of such Proceeding and the Marketing Agent shall have the right, by providing notice to the Sponsor or such Person within twenty (20) Business Days thereafter, to assume the defense of such Proceeding, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party and payment of all fees and expenses; provided, however, that the omission to so notify the Marketing Agent shall not relieve the Marketing Agent from any liability which it may have to the Sponsor or any such Person except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and has not otherwise learned of such Proceeding. If the Marketing Agent assumes the defense of such Proceeding, the Sponsor or such Person shall have the right to employ their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Sponsor or such Person unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by the Marketing Agent in connection with the defense of such Proceeding or the Marketing Agent shall not have, within a reasonable period of time in light of the circumstances, employed counsel to defend such Proceeding or such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or additional to or in conflict with those available to the Marketing Agent (in which case the Marketing Agent shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the indemnified party or parties, but the Marketing Agent may employ counsel and participate in the defense thereof but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Marketing Agent), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the Marketing Agent and paid as incurred (it being understood, however, that the Marketing Agent shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel (in addition to any local counsel) in any one Proceeding or series of related Proceedings in the same jurisdiction representing the indemnified parties who are parties to such Proceeding).

The Marketing Agent shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without the written consent of the Marketing Agent but if settled with the written consent of the Marketing Agent, the Marketing Agent agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sponsor and any such Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second sentence of this paragraph, then the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement and (iii) such indemnified party shall have given the indemnifying party at least 30 days’ prior notice of its intention to settle. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and does not include an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of such indemnified party.

7.3 The indemnity agreements contained in this Section 7 and the covenants, warranties and representations of the Sponsor contained in this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Marketing Agent, its partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers, employees and or any Person (including each partner, stockholder, member, director, officer or employee of such Person) who controls the Marketing Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or by or on behalf of each of the Sponsor, the Trust, the Fund, their partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers, employees or any Person who controls the Sponsor, the Trust or the Fund within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and shall survive any termination of this Agreement or the initial issuance and delivery of the Units. The Sponsor and the Marketing Agent agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any Proceeding against it and, in the case of the Sponsor, against any of the Sponsor’s officers or directors in connection with the issuance and sale of the Units, or in connection with the Registration Statement or the Prospectus.

SECTION 8

DURATION

8.1 This Agreement shall become effective on the date hereof and continue for an initial term of two (2) years from the date of this Agreement or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Term”). Upon and after the completion of the such Term, either the Marketing Agent, on the one hand, or the Sponsor, on the other hand, may elect to terminate this Agreement at any time upon 90 days’ notice thereof to the other party.

8.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be terminated by any party upon written notice to the other parties if (a) the Fund is terminated, (b) any other party becomes insolvent or bankrupt or files a voluntary petition, or is subject to an involuntary petition, in bankruptcy or attempts to or makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors or consents to the appointment of a trustee or receiver, provided that the Sponsor may not terminate this Agreement pursuant to this provision if the event relates to the Sponsor or the Fund or (c) any other party willfully and materially breaches its obligations under this Agreement and such breach has not been cured to the reasonable satisfaction of the non-breaching party prior to the expiration of ninety (90) days after notice by the non-breaching party to the breaching party of such breach.

SECTION 9

CONFIDENTIALITY

9.1	Confidentiality.

(a)

The Sponsor and the Marketing Agent shall during the Term and for one (1) year thereafter maintain in confidence, use only for the purposes provided for in this Agreement, and not disclose to any third party, without first obtaining the other party’s consent in writing, any and all Confidential Information (as defined below) such party receives from the other party; provided, however, that either party may disclose Confidential Information received from the other party to those of its Representatives as may be necessary for such party to carry out its obligations under this Agreement.

“Confidential Information” shall mean all information or data of a party that is disclosed to or received by the other party, whether orally, visually or in writing, in any form, including, without limitation, information or data which relates to such party’s business or operations, research and development, marketing plans or activities, or actual or potential products.

(b)

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, a party shall have no liability to the other party for the disclosure or use of any Confidential Information of the other party if the Confidential Information:

(i)

is known to such party at the time of disclosure other than as the result of a breach of this Section 9 by such party;

(ii)

has been or becomes publicly known, other than as the result of a breach of this Section 9 by such party, or has been or is publicly disclosed by the other party;

(iii)

is received by such party after the date of this Agreement from a third party (unless such third party breaches an obligation of confidentiality to the other party); or

(iv)

is required to be disclosed by Law or similar compulsion or in connection with any legal proceeding, provided that such party shall promptly inform the other party in writing of such requirement and that such disclosure shall be limited to the extent so required and, except to the extent prohibited by Law, such party shall reasonably cooperate with the other party (at the expense of the other party) in seeking a protective order or other suitable confidentiality protections.

(c)

The parties recognize and acknowledge that a breach or threatened breach by a party of the provisions of this Section 9 may cause irreparable and material loss and damage to the other party which cannot be adequately remedied at law and that, accordingly, in addition to, and not in lieu of, any damages or other remedy to which the non-breaching party may be entitled, the issuance of an injunction or other equitable remedy (without the requirement that a bond or other security be posted) is an appropriate remedy for the non-breaching party for any breach or threatened breach of the obligations set forth in this Section 9.

(d)

Each party agrees that it will use the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, in safeguarding the Confidential Information of the other party as it uses for its own Confidential Information of a similar nature. Each party shall promptly notify the other party in writing of any misuse, misappropriation or unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other party which may come to such party’s attention.

(e)

Upon the termination of this Agreement, if requested in writing by a party, the other party shall, at such party’s option, promptly destroy or return to the party all Confidential Information received from the other party, all copies and extracts of such Confidential Information and all documents or other media containing any such Confidential Information.

10.6 Severability. The parties hereto desire that the provisions of this Agreement be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the Law and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought.
