Reference is made to Article VII of the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust (filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 333-226989) on September 27, 2024), Article VI of Registrant’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 333-226989) on September 27, 2024), Paragraph 7 of the Distribution Agreement on Form N-14 (File No. 333-227320) on September 13, 2018, Paragraph 6 of the ETF Distribution Agreement (filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 333-226989) on December 13, 2024, Section 9 of the Consulting Agreement with Northern Lights Compliance Services, LLC(filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 333-226989) on December 13, 2024), and Section 10.3 of the ETF Master Services Agreement (filed with the Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 333-226989) on December 13, 2024).  With respect to the Registrant, the general effect of these provisions is to indemnify any person (Trustee, director, officer, employee or agent, among others) who was or is a party to any proceeding by reason of their actions performed in their official or duly authorized capacity on behalf of the Trust.  With respect to the distributor, the general effect of the relevant provisions is to indemnify those entities for claims arising out of any untrue statement or material fact contained in the Funds’ Registration Statement, reports to shareholders or advertising and sales literature.

 

Pursuant to Rule 484 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “1933 Act”) the Registrant furnishes the following undertaking: “Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.”
