(b)  Except as set forth in Section 5, the Series will bear all expenses of the Series #KAWHIBASKET Asset and shall reimburse the Asset Manager for any such expenses paid by the Asset Manager on behalf of the Series together with a reasonable rate of interest (a rate no less than the Applicable Federal Rate (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code)) as may be imposed by the Asset Manager in its sole discretion (“Operating Expenses Reimbursement Obligation”).

(a)  The relationship between the Asset Manager and the Series is as described in this Agreement and nothing in this Agreement, none of the services to be provided pursuant to this Agreement, nor any other matter, shall oblige the Asset Manager to accept responsibilities that are more extensive than those set forth in this Agreement.

 

(b)  The Asset Manager’s services to the Series are not exclusive.  The Asset Manager may engage in other activities on behalf of itself, any other Managing Party and other clients (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include other series of the Company).  The Series acknowledges and agrees that the Asset Manager may, without prior notice to the Series, give advice to such other clients.  The Asset Manager shall not be liable to account to the Series for any profits, commission or remuneration made or received in respect of transactions effected pursuant to the Asset Manager’s advice to another client and nor will the Asset Manager’s fees be abated as a result.

10.  Power of Attorney.  For so long as this Agreement is in effect, the Series constitutes and appoints the Asset Manager, with full power of substitution, its true and lawful attorney-in-fact and in its name, place and stead to carry out the Asset Manager’s obligations and responsibilities to the Series under this Agreement, solely with respect to the Series #KAWHIBASKET Asset.

Overview and authentication

 

	·	Series #KAWHIBASKET represents a collection of thirty ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2012-2013 Panini Prizm Rookie Cards, all graded PSA GEM-MT 10. Serial numbers for each individual asset is listed in the table below.
	·	The 2012 Panini Prizm Rookie Cards are a coveted and valuable collectors item.
	·	The cards feature ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ in his black, white and silver Spurs jersey palming the ball in his right hand.
	·	2012-2013 was the first production run for Panini Prizm cards, a popular line which has continued to expand, adding another notable element to its significance.
	·	The make-up of the original 2012-2013 Prizm is unique and primitive compared to more contemporary vintages of this category. For example, the 2018-10291 Panini Prizm set has over 30 parallels. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ 2012-2013 Prizm RC has just three.
	·	▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ historic NBA finals run with the Toronto Raptors, and his recent move to Los Angeles, has elevated his stature as a premier investable athlete.
	·	According to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇, there are only 766 ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ 2012 Panini Prizm GEM-MT 10’s in population. This offering represents thirty of them.
