Exhibit A to U.S. PB Agreement – Account Agreement

This account agreement (including all schedules attached hereto, this “Account Agreement”) is entered into between Customer and BNP PARIBAS PRIME BROKERAGE, INC. (“BNPP PB, Inc.”), on behalf of itself and as agent for the BNPP Entities. This Account Agreement is incorporated as an exhibit to the U.S. PB Agreement (the “Agreement”) and sets forth the terms and conditions on which BNPP PB, Inc. will open and maintain accounts (the “Accounts”) for cash loans and other products or services and otherwise transact business with Customer. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 18.

1. Collateral Maintenance, Repayment of Financing - The provisions of this Subsection shall apply except to the extent any such provisions contravene the Committed Facility Agreement (as defined herein) and such Committed Facility Agreement has not been terminated or the commitment therein has not expired. Customer will at all times maintain in, and upon written or oral demand furnish to, the Accounts, or otherwise provide to the BNPP Entities in a manner satisfactory to the BNPP Entities, assets of the types and in the amounts required by the BNPP Entities in light of outstanding Contracts (“Deliverable Collateral”). Immediately upon written or oral demand by BNPP PB, Inc., Customer shall pay to BNPP PB, Inc. in immediately available U.S. funds any principal balance of, accrued unpaid interest on, and any other Obligation owing in respect of, any Account.

2. Security Interest - 

(a) Grant of Security Interest. Customer hereby assigns and pledges to the BNPP Entities all Collateral, and Customer hereby grants a continuing first priority security interest therein, a lien thereon and a right of set off against any Collateral, and all such Collateral shall be subject to a general lien and a continuing first security interest and fixed charge, in each case securing the discharge of all Obligations, Contracts with BNPP Entities and liabilities of Customer to the BNPP Entities hereunder and thereunder, whether now existing or hereafter arising and irrespective of whether or not any of the BNPP Entities have made advances in connection with such Collateral, and irrespective of the number of accounts Customer may have with any of the BNPP Entities, and of which BNPP Entity holds such Collateral.

(b) No other Liens. All Collateral delivered to a BNPP Entity shall be free and clear of all prior liens, claims and encumbrances (other than liens solely in favor of the BNPP Entities), and Customer will not cause or allow any of the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be or become subject to any liens, security interests, mortgages or encumbrances of any nature other than security interests solely in the BNPP Entities’ favor. Furthermore, Collateral consisting of securities shall be delivered in good deliverable form (or the BNPP Entities shall have the power to place such securities in good deliverable form) in accordance with the requirements of the primary market or markets for such securities.

(c) Perfection. Customer shall execute such documents and take such other actions as the BNPP Entities shall reasonably request solely in order to perfect the BNPP Entities’ rights with respect to any such Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer agrees to record the security interests granted hereunder in any internal or external register of mortgages and charges maintained by or with respect to Customer under Applicable Law. Customer shall pay the fees for any filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest contemplated by this Agreement and pay, or cause to be paid, from the Accounts any and all Taxes imposed on the Collateral by any authority. In addition, Customer appoints the BNPP Entities as Customer’s attorney-in-fact to act on Customer’s behalf to sign, seal, execute and deliver all documents, and do all acts, solely as may be required or as any BNPP Entity shall determine in good faith to be advisable, to perfect the security interests created hereunder in, provide for any BNPP Entity to have control of, or realize upon any rights of any BNPP Entity in, any or all of the Collateral. The BNPP Entities and Customer each acknowledge and agree that each account maintained by any of the BNPP Entities to which any Collateral is credited is a “securities account” within the meaning of Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code, as in effect in the State of New York (the “NYUCC”), and all property and assets held in or credited from time to time to such an account shall be treated as a “financial asset” for purposes of Article 8 of the NYUCC, provided that any such account may also be a “deposit account” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(29) of the NYUCC) or a “commodity account” (within the meaning of Section 9-102(a)(14) of the NYUCC). Each BNPP Entity represents and warrants that it is a “securities intermediary” within the meaning of Article 8 of the NYUCC and is acting in such capacity with respect to each such account maintained by it.

(d) Effect of Security Interest. The BNPP Entities’ security interest in the Collateral shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the payment and performance in full of Customer’s Obligations, (ii) be binding upon Customer, its successors and permitted assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the BNPP Entities and their respective successors, transferees and assigns.

(e) Contract Status. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement and each Contract entered into pursuant to this Agreement are each a “securities contract”, “swap agreement,” “forward contract,” or “commodity contract” within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code (Title 11 of the United States Code) (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and that each delivery, transfer, payment and grant of a security interest made or required to be made hereunder or thereunder or contemplated hereby or thereby or made, required to be made or contemplated in connection herewith or therewith is a “transfer” and a “margin payment” or a “settlement payment” within the meaning of Sections 362(b)(6),(7),(17) and/or (27) and Sections 546(e), (f), (g) and/or (j) of the Bankruptcy Code. The parties further acknowledge that this Agreement is a “master netting agreement” within the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code and a “netting contract” within the meaning of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991.

3. Maintenance of Collateral - 

(a) General. Each BNPP Entity that holds Collateral holds such Collateral for itself and also as agent and bailee for all other BNPP Entities that are secured parties under any Contract or as to which Customer has any Obligation. Except where otherwise required by Applicable Law or where adverse regulatory capital, reserve or other similar costs (“Adverse Costs”) would thereby arise, the security interests of the BNPP Entities in any Collateral shall rank in such order of priority as the BNPP Entities may agree from time to time; provided, however, that BNPP PB, Inc. shall have first priority interest in the assets that it holds other than assets held in a cash account. In the event that any BNPP Entity is obliged by Applicable Law to maintain a first priority lien, or where such BNPP Entity would suffer Adverse Costs if it did not maintain a first priority lien, such BNPP Entity’s interest in the applicable Collateral shall have priority over that of the other BNPP Entities to the extent required to satisfy the requirements of Applicable Law or avoid such Adverse Costs. In the event that two or more BNPP Entities are so obliged to maintain a first priority lien, or would suffer Adverse Costs if they did not maintain a first priority lien, such BNPP Entities shall determine among themselves the priority of their respective interests in the relevant Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as otherwise agreed among the BNPP Entities, the security interest of the BNPP Entities in any Collateral consisting of the Customer’s right, title or interest in, to or under any Contract shall be subject to any enforceable right of setoff or netting (including, without limitation, any such right granted pursuant to Section 8 hereof) that any BNPP Entity that is party to such Contract may have with respect to the obligations of the Customer to such BNPP Entity (whether arising under such Contract or any other Contract).

(b) Transfers of Collateral between Accounts. Customer agrees that the BNPP Entities, at any time, at any BNPP Entity’s discretion and subject to using good faith efforts to provide prior notice to Customer, may use, apply, or transfer any and all Collateral interchangeably between the BNPP Entities in any accounts in which Customer has an interest. With respect to Collateral pledged principally to secure Obligations under any Contract, the BNPP Entities shall have the right, but in no event the obligation, to apply all or any portion of such Collateral to Customer’s Obligations to any of the BNPP Entities under any other Contract, to transfer all or any portion of such Collateral to secure Customer’s Obligations to any of the BNPP Entities under any other Contract or to release any such Collateral. Under no circumstances shall any Collateral pledged principally to secure Obligations to any of the BNPP Entities under any Contract be required to be applied or transferred to secure Obligations to any of the other BNPP Entities or to be released if (i) any BNPP Entity determines that such transfer would render it undersecured with respect to any Obligations, (ii) an event of default has occurred and is continuing with respect to Customer under any Contract or Obligation or (iii) any such application, transfer or release would be contrary to Applicable Law.

(c) Control by BNPP Entities. Each BNPP Entity that (i) is the securities intermediary in respect of any securities account constituting Collateral, or to which any Collateral is credited or in which any Collateral is held or carried, agrees that it will comply with entitlement orders originated by any other BNPP Entity with respect to any such securities account or Collateral without any further consent by Customer, (ii) is the bank in respect of any deposit account constituting Collateral, or to which any Collateral is credited or in which any Collateral is held or carried, agrees with Customer and each other BNPP Entity (each of whom so agrees with it) that it will comply with instructions originated by any other BNPP Entity directing disposition of the funds in such deposit account without further consent by Customer and (iii) is the commodity intermediary in respect of any commodity contract or commodity account constituting Collateral, or any commodity account to which any Collateral is credited or in which any Collateral is held or carried, agrees with Customer and each other BNPP Entity (each of whom so agrees with it) that it will apply any value on account of any such Collateral as directed by any other BNPP Entity without further consent by Customer. Customer hereby consents to the foregoing agreements of the BNPP Entities. Each of the BNPP Entities that is the securities intermediary, commodity intermediary or bank with respect to any such securities, commodity or deposit account or any such commodity contract represents and warrants that it has not, and agrees that it will not, agree to comply with entitlement orders, directions or instructions concerning any such account or any security entitlements, financial assets, commodity contracts or funds credited thereto or held or carried thereon that are originated by any person other than (i) a BNPP Entity or (ii) (until a BNPP Entity shall have given a “notice of sole control”) Customer. Each BNPP Entity hereby notifies each other BNPP Entity of its security interest in, and the assignment by way of security to it of, the Collateral. Each BNPP Entity acknowledges such notice from each other BNPP Entity and each BNPP Entity and Customer consent to the security interest granted by this Section. For the avoidance of doubt, each BNPP Entity when not acting in its capacity as a securities intermediary agrees that it shall not issue an entitlement order unless and until an amount is owing by Customer pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or an Event of Default with respect to Customer has occurred and is continuing.

4. Rehypothecation - See Exhibit B.

5. Representations and Warranties - Customer (and, if a person or entity is signing this Agreement on behalf of Customer, such person or entity) hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof, which representations and warranties will be deemed repeated on each date on which this Agreement is in effect, that:

(a) Due Organization; Organizational Information. Customer is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization; Customer’s jurisdiction of organization, type of organization, place of business (if it has only one place of business) or chief executive office (if it has more than one place of business) and organizational identification number are, in each case as set forth on the cover page hereof or as shall have been notified to BNPP PB, Inc. not less than 30 days prior to any change of such information; and unless Customer otherwise informs BNPP PB, Inc. in writing, Customer does not have any place of business in the United Kingdom.

(b) UNon-Contravention; Compliance with Applicable Laws.  Customer is and will at all times be, in compliance with (i) Applicable Law that relates to (a) felonies, (b) fraud, (c) activities related to the conduct of Customer’s business or (d) activities related to the securities industry (except in the case of (c) or (d), where the failure to do so would not have a material adverse effect on Customer or its ability to perform under the Contracts, as determined by the BNPP Entities), (ii) all orders and awards binding on Customer or its property, (iii) Customer’s internal documents and policies (including organizational documents) (except where such failure would not have a material adverse effect on Customer or its ability to perform under the Contracts, as determined by the BNPP Entities), and (iv) all material contracts (including this Agreement) or other instruments binding on or affecting Customer or any of its property.  Further, Customer maintains adequate controls to be reasonably assured of such compliance.  To the best of the Customer’s knowledge, there are and have been no legal or governmental proceedings or investigations pending or threatened to which Customer or any Related Person is a party or to which any of the properties of Customer or any Related Person is subject. Further, to Customer’s knowledge, the education, employment and other qualifications for the officers for the Customer in the prospectus provided to any investors or otherwise made available by the Customer are correct in all material respects.

(c) Full Power. Customer has full power and is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. Customer has full power to enter into and engage in any and all transactions (i) in any Account with any BNPP Entity or (ii) that is subject to this Agreement. Further, this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Customer, and constitutes a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of Customer, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

(d) No Consent. No consent of any person and no authorization or other action by, and no notice to, or filing with, any governmental authority or any other person is required that has not already been obtained (i) for the due execution, delivery and performance by Customer of this Agreement; or (ii) for the exercise by any of the BNPP Entities of the rights or remedies provided for in this Agreement, including rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral.

(e) No Prior Lien. Customer is the lawful owner of all Collateral, free and clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances and transfer restrictions, except such as are created under this Agreement, other liens in favor of one or more BNPP Entities, and Customer will not cause or allow any of the Collateral, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to be or become subject to any liens, security interests, mortgages or encumbrances of any nature other than those in favor of the BNPP Entities. No person (other than any BNPP Entity) has an interest in any Account or any other accounts of Customer with any of the BNPP Entities, any Collateral or other assets or property held therein or credited thereto or any other Collateral. Unless Customer has notified BNPP PB, Inc. to the contrary, none of the Collateral are “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933.

(f) ERISA. (i) The assets used to consummate the transactions provided hereunder shall not constitute the assets of (A) an “employee benefit plan” that is subject to Part 4, Subtitle B, Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), (B) a “plan” within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, or (C) a person or entity the underlying assets of which are deemed to include plan assets as determined under Section 3(42) of ERISA and the regulations thereunder, and (ii) either (A) the assets used to consummate the transactions provided hereunder shall not constitute the assets of a governmental plan that is subject to any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to the provisions of Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (a “Similar Law”) or (B) the transactions hereunder do not violate any applicable Similar Law. Customer will notify BNPP PB (1) if Customer is aware in advance that it will breach the foregoing representation and warranty (the “Representation”), reasonably in advance of it breaching the Representation, or (2) promptly upon becoming aware that it is in breach of the Representation. If Customer provides such notice or if BNPP PB is aware that Customer is in breach or will be in breach of the Representation, upon a BNPP Entity’s written request, Customer will terminate any or all transactions under this Agreement (x) if Customer gave advance notice that it would breach the Representation, prior to breaching the Representation, (y) if Customer gave no notice but BNPP PB is aware that Customer will be in breach of the Representation, prior to breaching the Representation (unless Customer avoids the occurrence of such breach) or, (z) if Customer is in breach of the Representation, immediately.

(g) Market Timing. Customer does not presently engage in and will not engage in any Market-Timing Trading Activity, and Customer will not use the proceeds of any financing in furtherance of any Market-Timing Trading Activity. Customer does not presently engage in and will not engage in any transactions and does not and will not cause any person to engage in any transactions, that would constitute, for any party to such transactions, a violation of (i) Rule 22c-1 of the Investment Company Act or (ii) analogous Applicable Law relating to the timing of purchases, sales and exchanges of non-U.S. mutual funds, non-U.S. unit trusts or analogous non-U.S. investment vehicles.

(h) UInformation Provided by Customer; Financial Statements.U Any information provided by Customer to any BNPP Entity in connection with this Agreement is correct in all material respects and Customer agrees promptly to notify the relevant BNPP Entity if there is any material change with respect to any such information. Customer’s financial statements or similar documents previously or hereafter provided to the BNPP Entities (i) do or will fairly present the financial condition of Customer as of the date of such financial statements and the results of its operations for the period for which such financial statements are applicable, (ii) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied and, (iii) if audited, have been certified without reservation by a firm of independent public accountants. Customer will promptly furnish to the relevant BNPP Entity any information (including financial information) about Customer upon such BNPP Entity’s reasonable request.

(i) Anti-Money Laundering. To the best of Customer’s knowledge, none of Customer, any person controlling or controlled by Customer, any person having a beneficial interest in Customer, or any person for whom Customer acts as agent or nominee in connection herewith is: (i) an individual or entity, country or territory, that is named on a list issued by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), or an individual or entity that resides, is organized or chartered, or has a place of business, in a country or territory subject to OFAC’s various sanctions/embargo programs; (ii) a resident in, or organized or chartered under the laws of (A) a jurisdiction that has been designated by the Secretary of the Treasury under the USA PATRIOT Act as warranting special measures and/or as being of primary money laundering concern, or (B) a jurisdiction that has been designated as non-cooperative with international anti-money laundering principles by a multinational or inter-governmental group such as the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (“FATF”) of which the United States is a member; (iii) a financial institution that has been designated by the Secretary of the Treasury as warranting special measures and/or as being of primary money laundering concern; (iv) a “senior foreign political figure,” or any “immediate family” member or “close associate” of a senior foreign political figure, in each case within the meaning of Section 5318(i) of Title 31 of the United States Code or regulations issued thereunder; or (v) a prohibited “foreign shell bank” as defined in Section 5318(j) of Title 31 of the United States Code or regulations issued thereunder, or a U.S. financial institution that has established, maintains, administers or manages an account in the U.S. for, or on behalf of, a prohibited “foreign shell bank”.

BNPP PB, Inc. hereby represents and warrants as of the date hereof, which representations and warranties will be deemed repeated on each date on which this Agreement is in effect, that:

(x) BNPP PB, Inc. is duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization;

(y) BNPP PB, Inc. has full power and is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.

7. No Obligation - Customer and BNPP PB, Inc. agree that BNPP PB, Inc. shall not place any limit on the type or size of transactions which are to be settled and cleared by BNPP PB, Inc. more restrictive than those imposed by Applicable Law.

8. Events of Default; Setoff - 

(a) Events of Default. The following Events of Default shall apply only to the extent the Committed Facility Agreement has been terminated or the commitment therein has expired. (i) In the event of default by Customer on any Obligation under any transaction or contract or a default, event of default, declaration of default, termination event, exercise of default remedies, or other similar condition or event under any transaction or contract (howsoever characterized, which, for the avoidance of doubt, includes the occurrence of an Additional Termination Event or Specified Condition under an ISDA Master Agreement between Customer and any BNPP Entity, affiliate of a BNPP Entity or a third party entity, if applicable) in respect of Customer, (ii) if Customer shall become bankrupt, insolvent, or subject to any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or similar proceeding or all or substantially all its assets become subject to a suit, levy, enforcement, or other legal process where a secured party maintains possession of such assets, has a resolution passed for its winding-up, official management or liquidation (other than pursuant to a consolidation, amalgamation or merger), seeks or becomes subject to the appointment of an administrator, provisional liquidator, conservator, receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar official for it or for all or substantially all its assets, has a secured party take possession of all or substantially all its assets, or takes any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in, any of the foregoing acts, or (iii) if any representation or warranty made or deemed made by Customer under the Agreement proves false or misleading when made or deemed made (each of the foregoing, an “Event of Default”), BNPP PB, Inc. and any and all the BNPP Entities are hereby authorized, in their discretion, upon the occurrence of such Event of Default, if such Event of Default is then continuing, to take Default Action upon prior written notice to Customer. If BNPP PB, Inc. or any other BNPP Entity elects to sell any Collateral, buy in any property, or cancel any orders upon an Event of Default, such sale, purchase or cancellation may be made on the exchange or other market where such business is then usually transacted, or at public auction or at private sale, without advertising the same and without any notice of the time or place of sale to Customer or to the personal representatives of Customer, and without prior tender, demand or call of any kind upon Customer or upon the personal representatives of Customer, all of which are expressly waived. The BNPP Entities will comply with NYUCC Section 9-610(b), to the extent applicable, when exercising any such sale, purchase or cancellation. The BNPP Entities may purchase or sell the property to or from any BNPP Entity or third parties in whole or in any part thereof free from any right of redemption, and Customer shall remain liable for any deficiency. A prior tender, demand or call of any kind from the BNPP Entities, or prior notice from the BNPP Entities, of the time and place of such sale or purchase shall not be considered a waiver of the BNPP Entities’ right to sell or buy any Collateral at any time as provided herein.

(b) Close-out. Upon the Close-out of any Contract, the Close-out Amount for such Contract shall be due. If, however, Applicable Law would stay or otherwise impair the enforcement of the provisions of this Agreement or any Contract upon the occurrence of an insolvency related Close-out or Event of Default, then Close-out shall automatically occur immediately prior to the occurrence of such insolvency related Close-out or Event of Default.

(c) Setoff. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, BNPP PB, Inc. and any and all BNPP Entities are hereby authorized, in their discretion, to set off and otherwise apply any and all of the obligations of any and all BNPP Entities then due to Customer against any and all Obligations of Customer then due to such BNPP Entities (whether at maturity, upon acceleration or termination or otherwise). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, upon the occurrence of the Close-out of any Contract, each BNPP Entity shall have the right to net the Close-out Amounts due from it to Customer and from Customer to it, so that a single settlement payment (the “Net Payment”) shall be payable by one party to the other, which Net Payment shall be immediately due and payable (subject to the other provisions hereof and of any Contract); provided that if any Close-out Amounts may not be netted against all other Close-out Amounts, such excluded Close-out Amounts shall be netted among themselves to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law. Upon the occurrence of a Close-out, each BNPP Entity may also (i) liquidate, apply and set off any or all Collateral against any Net Payment, payment, or Obligation owed to it or any other BNPP Entity under any Contract and (ii) set off and net any Net Payment, payment or obligation owed by it or any other BNPP Entity under any Contract against (x) any or all collateral or margin (or the Cash value thereof) posted by it or any other BNPP Entity to Customer under any Contract and (y) any Net Payment, payment or Obligation owed by Customer to any BNPP Entity (whether mature or unmatured, fixed or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated).

(d) Reinstatement of Obligations. If the exercise of any right to reduce and set-off pursuant to this Agreement shall be avoided or set aside by a court or shall be restrained, stayed or enjoined under Applicable Law, the obligations in respect thereof shall be reinstated or, in the event of restraint, stay or injunction, preserved in at least the amounts as of the date of restraint, stay or injunction between the applicable BNPP Entities, on the one hand, and Customer on the other, until such time as such restraint, stay or injunction shall no longer prohibit exercise of such right.

(e) BNPP Entity Consent. No BNPP Entity shall make any payment to Customer in respect of a Close-Out Amount without the consent of each other BNPP Entity that has a security interest in such Close-Out Amount.

(f) BNPP Insolvency. If the Securities Investor Protection Corporation files an application for a protective decree against BNPP PB, Inc., Customer shall, subject to Applicable Law and any general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law, have the contractual right to set-off or net any Obligations owed by Customer to BNPP PB, Inc. against any obligations owed by BNPP PB, Inc. to Customer under this Agreement.

9. Indemnity - 

(a) General. Customer agrees to indemnify and hold the BNPP Entities harmless from and fully reimburse the BNPP Entities for any Indemnified Losses. The indemnities under this Section 9 shall be separate from and in addition to any other indemnity under any Contract.

(b) Delivery Failures. In case of the sale of any security, commodity, or other property by the BNPP Entities at the direction of Customer and the BNPP Entities’ inability to deliver the same to the purchaser by reason of failure of Customer to supply the BNPP Entities therewith, Customer authorizes the BNPP Entities to borrow or purchase any such security, commodity, or other property reasonably necessary to make delivery thereof. Customer hereby agrees to be responsible for any cost, expense or loss which the BNPP Entities may sustain thereby, except any such loss caused by a BNPP Entity’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud.

10. Limitation of Liability - 

(a) General. None of the BNPP Entities, nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or counsel, shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or in connection herewith except for the gross negligence, willful misconduct or fraud of the applicable BNPP Entity and as specified in Section 10(b).

(b) Third Parties. The BNPP Entities may execute any of their duties and exercise their rights hereunder by or through agents (which may include affiliates) or employees. None of the BNPP Entities shall be liable for the acts or omissions of any subcustodian or other agent selected by it with reasonable care, unless such subcustodian is an affiliate of any BNPP Entity, except to the extent caused by the relevant BNPP Entity’s failure to monitor or reasonably appoint such sub-custodian or agent, as set forth below. Upon Customer’s request, BNPP PB, Inc. will provide Customer with a list of sub-custodians or other third parties employed by it to custody Customer’s Collateral and will use best efforts to give prior notice to Customer of any changes in the identity of sub-custodians or third parties employed by BNPP PB, Inc. to custody Customer’s Collateral, but only to the extent that such change affects the custody of Customer’s Collateral. BNPP PB, Inc. will be responsible to Customer for satisfying itself as to the ongoing suitability of such sub-custodians to provide custodial services to customers of BNPP PB, Inc. as a general matter. BNPP PB, Inc. will maintain what it considers to be an appropriate level of supervision over such sub-custodians and will make appropriate inquiries, as determined by BNPP PB, Inc., periodically to confirm that the obligations of such sub-custodians continue to be competently discharged. All transactions effected with a third party for Customer shall be for the account of Customer and the BNPP Entities shall have no responsibility to Customer or such third party with respect thereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall create, or be deemed to create, any third party beneficiary rights in any person or entity (including any investor or adviser of Customer), other than the BNPP Entities.

(c) No Liability for Indirect, Consequential, Exemplary or Punitive Damages; Force Majeure. In no event shall the BNPP Entities or Customer be held liable for indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages. In no event shall the BNPP Entities be held liable for any loss of any kind caused, directly or indirectly, by any Force Majeure Event.

11. Taxes - 

(a) Withholding Tax. Except as required by Applicable Law, each payment by Customer and all deliveries of Deliverable Collateral or Collateral under this Agreement shall be made, and the value of any Deliverable Collateral or Collateral shall be calculated, without withholding or deducting any Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted, subject to Section 16(d) of this Agreement, Customer shall pay such additional amounts as necessary to ensure that the actual net amount received by the BNPP Entities is equal to the amount that the BNPP Entities would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required. Customer will provide the BNPP Entities with any forms or documentation reasonably requested by the BNPP Entities in order to reduce or eliminate withholding tax on payments made to Customer with respect to this Agreement. The BNPP Entities (and Customer only to the extent provided for under Section 16(d) of this Agreement) are hereby authorized to withhold Taxes from any payment in delivery made hereunder and remit such Taxes to the relevant taxing authorities to the extent required by Applicable Law. Each of BNP Paribas Prime Brokerage International, Ltd. and BNPP PB, Inc.

Customer further acknowledges that although Customer may receive from BNPP PB, Inc. a Form 1099-DIV indicating which dividends may qualify for the reduced tax rate, as required by applicable rules, Customer is responsible for determining which dividends qualify for the reduced tax rate based on Customer’s own tax situation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, Customer agrees that the BNPP Entities may rely upon any authorized instructions or any notice, request, waiver, consent, receipt or other document which the BNPP Entities reasonably believe to be genuine and transmitted by an authorized person listed on Appendix B attached hereto.

Exhibit B – Rehypothecation Exhibit

This Exhibit B (the “Rehypothecation Agreement”) is entered into between Customer and BNP PARIBAS PRIME BROKERAGE, INC. (“BNPP PB, Inc.”), on behalf of itself and as agent for the BNPP Entities. This Rehypothecation Agreement is incorporated as an exhibit to the U.S. PB Agreement (the “Agreement”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 18 of the Account Agreement.

1. Rehypothecation -

(a) Customer expressly grants BNPP PB, Inc. the right, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so under Applicable Law and subject to the terms and conditions of this Rehypothecation Agreement, to re-register the Collateral in its own name or in another name other than Customer’s, to use or invest the proceeds of any securities lending transaction at its own risk, and to pledge, repledge, hypothecate, rehypothecate, sell, lend, or otherwise transfer or use the Collateral (the “Hypothecated Securities”), with all attendant rights of ownership except as provided below. For the purposes of the return of any Hypothecated Securities to Customer, BNPP PB, Inc.’s return obligations shall be satisfied by delivering the Hypothecated Securities or securities identical to such Hypothecated Securities (such securities having the same cusip number as the subject Hypothecated Securities, or in the case of a reorganization or recapitalization of the issuer, the equivalent of the subject Hypothecated Securities) (“Equivalent Securities”). For the avoidance of doubt, Customer hereby grants BNPP PB, Inc. its consent to hypothecate its securities for the purposes of Rule 15c2-1(a)(1) of the Exchange Act, subject to the limits of this Agreement.

(b) Collateral held by Custodian (including any successor thereto) pursuant to the Special Custody and Pledge Agreement (the “Margin Collateral”) shall be transferred to BNPP PB, Inc. for purposes of rehypothecation only against a request to Custodian for release of Margin Collateral (“Hypothecation Request”) that meets the following requirements: (i) the Hypothecation Request is issued by a duly authorized representative of BNPP PB, Inc. in accordance with the requirements for instructions set forth for in the Special Custody and Pledge Agreement, (ii) subject to Section 2(c)(B), the fair market value of the securities which are subject to the Hypothecation Request, together with the value of any outstanding Hypothecated Securities, shall not exceed the value of the loan against which the Margin Collateral was pledged (“Hypothecation Limit”), provided that if the Maximum Commitment Financing (as defined in the Committed Facility Agreement) is increased pursuant to the mutual agreement of the parties, then the fair market value of the securities which are subject to the Hypothecation Request, together with the value of any outstanding Hypothecated Securities, shall not exceed the lesser of (A) the Hypothecation Limit or (B) thirty-three and one-third percent (33⅓%) of the total assets of the Customer based on the most recent financial information provided by the Customer, (iii) the securities which are subject to the Hypothecation Request shall not represent the entire position of such security held by Customer, and (iv) the securities which are subject to the Hypothecation Request are not Ineligible Securities (as defined below) and have not been recalled by the Customer or if the securities which are subject to the Hypothecation Request were recalled by the Customer other than for the purpose of selling the securities, the record date that was the reason for the recall or event has passed.

2. Eligibility; Recall Rights -

(a) Customer shall have the right, in its sole discretion and without condition, to designate any Margin Collateral as ineligible for rehypothecation for any valid business reason, in the sole discretion of Customer, including, without limitation, an imminent sale, dividend declaration or other corporate action (“Ineligible Securities”), provided that the amount of Ineligible Securities designated by Customer cannot cause the market value of the Margin Collateral that has not been designated as Ineligible Securities to be below the Outstanding Debit Financing (as defined in the Committed Facility Agreement). Except as limited herein, Customer shall have the right, upon demand and without condition, to recall any Hypothecated Securities and BNPP PB, Inc. shall, to the extent commercially reasonable under the circumstances, return such security or an Equivalent Security to the Special Custody Account (as defined in the Special Custody and Pledge Agreement, the “Special Custody Account”) within a commercially reasonable period (in any event, if securities have been recalled by noon on any Business Day, no later than the standard settlement cycle for such securities after such request).

(b) Customer shall provide, or cause the Custodian to provide, a daily report to BNPP PB, Inc. of portfolio transactions relating to securities in the Special Custody Account. With respect to any Hypothecated Security that is the subject of a sell order, on the date such report is delivered to BNPP PB, Inc., BNPP PB, Inc. shall, without any further action by Customer and to the extent commercially reasonable under the circumstances, return such security or an Equivalent Security to the Special Custody Account within a commercially reasonable period (in any event, if securities have been recalled by noon on any Business Day, no later than five business days after such request).

(c) If as of the close of business on any Business Day the value of all outstanding Hypothecated Securities exceeds the Hypothecation Limit (such excess amount, the “Rehypothecation Excess”), BNPP PB, Inc. shall, at its option, either (A) reduce the amount of outstanding Hypothecated Securities so that the total value of such securities does not exceed the Hypothecation Limit or (B) deliver to, and maintain within, the Special Custody Account an amount of cash at least equal to any Rehypothecation Excess (for the avoidance of doubt, if there is no Rehypothecation Excess, BNPP PB, Inc. can recall any cash delivered hereunder).

3. Corporate Actions -

(a) Income Payments. Customer shall be entitled to receive with respect to any Hypothecated Security, an amount equal to any principal thereof and all interest, dividends or other distributions paid or distributed on or in respect of the Hypothecated Securities (“Income”) that is not otherwise received by Customer. BNPP PB, Inc. shall, on the date such Income is paid or distributed either transfer to or credit to the Special Custody Account such Income with respect to any Hypothecated Securities, provided that BNPP PB, Inc. shall make commercially reasonable efforts to return Hypothecated Securities receiving Income prior to the record date for a distribution.

(b) Income in the Form of Securities. Where Income, in the form of securities, is paid in relation to any Hypothecated Securities, such securities shall be delivered to the Special Custody Account.

(c) Other Corporate Actions. Where, in respect of any Hypothecated Securities, any rights relating to conversion, sub-division, consolidation, pre-emption, rights arising under a takeover offer, rights to receive securities or a certificate which may at a future date be exchanged for securities or other rights, including those requiring election by the record holder of such securities at the time of the relevant election, become exercisable prior to the redelivery of Equivalent Securities, then Customer may, within a reasonable time before the latest time for the exercise of the right or option give written notice to BNPP PB, Inc. that on redelivery of Equivalent Securities, it wishes to receive Equivalent Securities in such form as will arise if the right is exercised or, in the case of a right which may be exercised in more than one manner, is exercised as is specified in such written notice, and BNPP PB, Inc. shall, to the extent commercially reasonable under the circumstances, return such Hypothecated Security or an Equivalent Security to the Special Custody Account within a commercially reasonable period (in any event, if securities have been recalled by noon on any Business Day, no later than the standard settlement cycle for such securities after such request).

4. Segregation of Hypothecated Securities - Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, any transfer of Hypothecated Securities to the Customer or any transfer of cash pursuant to Sections 2 or 3 shall be effected by delivery or other transfer to or for credit to the Special Custody Account. BNPP PB, Inc. expressly acknowledges that all securities that it is obligated to transfer hereunder shall be transferred to the Special Custody Account and shall not be held by BNPP PB, Inc.

5. Re-hypothecation Failure - Hypothecated Securities shall be marked-to-market daily and valued in accordance with the Special Custody and Pledge Agreement and this Agreement (together such agreements, the “Account Documents”). Upon the failure of BNPP PB, Inc. to return Hypothecated Securities or the equivalent thereof (e.g., securities of the quantity, class or tranche, and issuer that are identical in every respect to such Hypothecated Securities) pursuant to this Agreement or Applicable Law, Customer shall be entitled to reduce the value of the loan against which the Margin Collateral was pledged by an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the then-current fair market value of such Hypothecated Securities as reasonably agreed to between the parties without any fee or penalty; provided, however that the terms of the Committed Facility Agreement shall not be altered or amended by such reduction.

6. Failure to Process Instructions - If (i) Customer provides BNPP PB, Inc. with instructions in respect of corporate actions on the Hypothecated Securities (excluding any exercise of voting rights) which do not require Customer to be a record holder at the time of exercise, (ii) Customer provides at least five Business Days’ notice prior to the relevant exercise deadline, and (iii) BNPP PB, Inc. fails to process Customer’s instructions in a commercially reasonable manner, BNPP PB, Inc. shall provide Customer the cash equivalent of payments or distributions actually made but which Customer did not receive due to BNPP PB, Inc.’s failure.

7. Fees - BNPP PB, Inc. agrees to pay Customer a rehypothecation fee (the “Rehypothecation Fee”), computed daily at a rate as set forth herein, as modified from time to time by mutual agreement of the parties. Except as BNPP PB, Inc. and Customer may otherwise agree, the Rehypothecation Fee shall accrue from and including the date on which the BNPP PB, Inc. rehypothecates Margin Collateral to, but excluding, the date on which securities or other financial assets of the same issuer and class as the Margin Collateral initially rehypothecated are returned to Customer’s Special Custody Account. Unless otherwise agreed, any Rehypothecation Fee payable hereunder shall be payable upon the earlier of (i) the day that is two (2) Business Days prior to the calendar month end in the month in which such fee was incurred (the “Scheduled Payment Date”) or (ii) the termination of the U.S. PB Agreement (the “Termination Payment Date”) (or, if such Scheduled Payment Date or Termination Payment Date, as the case may be, is not a Business Day, the next Business Day.

For the avoidance of doubt, each payment of the Rehypothecation Fee on a Scheduled Payment Date shall be payment for the monthly period from three (3) Business Days prior to a calendar month end to three (3) Business Days prior to the next succeeding calendar month end.

8. Fee Amount – 70% of the difference between the fair market rate (as determined by BNPP PB, Inc. in a commercially reasonable manner) and Fed Funds Open.
