In the event that CIT/VC determines that it has a Regulatory Problem, the Company agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take all such actions as are reasonably requested by CIT/VC in order (A) to effectuate and facilitate any transfer by CIT/VC of any Securities of the Company then held by CIT/VC to any Person designated by CIT/VC (subject, however, to compliance with Section 3 of this Agreement), (B) to permit CIT/VC (or any Affiliate of CIT/VC) to exchange all or any portion of the voting Securities of the Company then held by such Person on a share-for-share basis for shares of a class of non-voting Securities of the Company, which non-voting Securities shall be identical in all respects to such voting Securities, except that such new Securities shall be non-voting and shall be convertible into voting Securities on such terms as are requested by CIT/VC in light of regulatory considerations then prevailing, and (C) to continue and preserve the respective allocation of the voting interests with respect to the Company arising out of CIT/VC's ownership of voting Securities of the Company and/or provided for in this Agreement before the transfers and amendments referred to above (including entering into such additional agreements as are requested by CIT/VC to permit any Person(s) designated by CIT/VC to exercise any voting power which is relinquished by CIT/VC upon any exchange of voting Securities for nonvoting Securities of the Company); and the Company shall enter into such additional agreements, adopt such amendments to this Agreement, the Company's Charter and the Company's By-laws and other relevant agreements and taking such additional actions, in each case as are reasonably requested by CIT/VC in order to effectuate the intent of the foregoing. If CIT/VC elects to transfer Securities of the Company to a Regulated Holder in order to avoid a Regulatory Problem, the Company shall enter into such agreements with such Regulated Holder as it may reasonably request in order to assist such Regulated Holder in complying with applicable laws, and regulations to which it is subject. Such agreements may include restrictions on the 39. redemption, repurchase or retirement of Securities of the Company that would result or be reasonably expected to result in such Regulated Holder holding more voting securities or total securities (equity and debt) than it is permitted to hold under such laws and regulations.

Quality Assurance The parties endorse the underlying principles of the Company’s Quality Management System, which seeks to ensure that its services are provided in a manner which best conforms to the requirements of the contract with its customer. This requires the Company to establish and maintain, implement, train and continuously improve its procedures and processes, and the employees to follow the procedures, document their compliance and participate in the improvement process.

Where necessary, training will be provided in these activities.
Monitoring and Risk Assessment of Securities Depositories Prior to the placement of any assets of the Fund with a non-U.S. Securities Depository, the Custodian: (a) shall provide to the Fund or its authorized representative an assessment of the custody risks associated with maintaining assets within such Securities Depository; and (b) shall have established a system to monitor the custody risks associated with maintaining assets with such Securities Depository on a continuing basis and to promptly notify the Fund or its Investment Adviser of any material changes in such risk. In performing its duties under this subsection, the Custodian shall use reasonable care and may rely on such reasonable sources of information as may be available including but not limited to: (i) published ratings; (ii) information supplied by a Subcustodian that is a participant in such Securities Depository; (iii) industry surveys or publications; (iv) information supplied by the depository itself, by its auditors (internal or external) or by the relevant Foreign Financial Regulatory Authority. It is acknowledged that information procured through some or all of these sources may not be independently verifiable by the Custodian and that direct access to Securities Depositories is limited under most circumstances. Accordingly, the Custodian shall not be responsible for errors or omissions in its duties hereunder provided that it has performed its monitoring and assessment duties with reasonable care. The risk assessment shall be provided to the Fund or its Investment Advisor by such means as the Custodian shall reasonably establish. Advices of material change in such assessment may be provided by the Custodian in the manner established as customary between the Fund and the Custodian for transmission of material market information.
