The duties of the Co-Administrators shall be confined to those expressly set forth herein, and no implied duties are assumed by or may be asserted against the Co-Administrators hereunder.

 

(b)     The Fund, under the supervision of its Board of Trustees, shall cause its officers, investment adviser(s), legal counsel, independent accountants, transfer agent, fund accountant, custodian and other service providers and agents for the Fund to cooperate with the Co-Administrators and to provide the Co-Administrators with such information, documents and communications relating to the Fund as necessary and/or appropriate or as requested by the Co-Administrators, in order to enable the Co-Administrators to perform their duties hereunder. The Fund shall use its best efforts to cause any of its former officers, investment adviser(s) and sub-advisers, legal counsel, independent accountants, custodian or other service providers to provide the Co-Administrators with such information, documents and communications as necessary and/or appropriate to enable the Co-Administrators to perform their duties hereunder. In connection with their duties hereunder, each Co-Administrator shall (without investigation or verification) be reasonably entitled and is hereby instructed to, rely upon any and all instructions, communications, information or documents provided to the Co-Administrator by an authorized officer, representative agent of the Fund, the other Co-Administrator or by any of the aforementioned persons. A Co-Administrator shall be entitled to rely on any document that it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party. Fees charged by such persons shall be an expense of the Fund.
