Funds' shareholders confidentially and as proprietary information of the
Advisor and the Funds, not to use such information other than for purposes
of fulfilling its duties under the Agreement, and not to disclose such

"5(a) The Sub-Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment
or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Advisor or the Funds in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except for a
loss resulting from the Sub-Administrator's willful misfeasance, bad faith
or negligence in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard
by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. The
Sub-Administrator agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Advisor, its employees, agents, officers, directors, and nominees from
and against any and all claims, demands, actions and suits, and from and
against any and all judgments, liabilities, losses, damages, costs,
charges, reasonable counsel fees, and other expenses of every nature and
character which may be asserted against the Advisor or for which the

obligations and duties under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Sub-Administrator shall not be liable for (i) any action
taken or omitted to be taken in accordance with written or oral
instructions received by the Sub-Administrator from an officer or
representative of the Advisor or the Funds, or (ii) any action taken or
omitted by any prior service provider."

Sub-Administrator, its employees, agents, officers, directors, and
nominees from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, and suits,
and from and against any and all judgments, liabilities, losses, damages,

nature and character which may be asserted against the Sub-Administrator
or for which the Sub-Administrator may be held liable (a "Claim") arising
out of or in any way relating to (i) the Sub-Administrator's actions or
omissions, except to the extent a Claim resulted from the
Sub-Administrator's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or negligence in the
performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its
obligations and duties hereunder, or (ii) the Sub-Administrator's reliance
on, or use of information, data, records, and documents received by the
Sub-Administrator from any party referenced in Section 2 hereof, or other
representative of the Advisor or the Funds, or (iii) the reliance on, or
the implementation of, any instructions, directions, or any other requests
of the Funds, or (iv) any action taken or omitted by any prior service
provider."
