If for any reason the Company does not have sufficient funds available to enable Manager to perform each of the duties and responsibilities set forth herein, Manager shall notify the Company of such insufficiency and request that the Company provide Manager such sums as are necessary in order to enable Manager to perform its duties and responsibilities under this Agreement. Should the Company fail to Company such amounts within ten days of receipt of Manager's notice, Manager shall be released from its responsibilities hereunder for which Manager has not been provided sufficient funds.

Under no circumstances will the liability of Manager and Covered Persons exceed, in the aggregate, the fees actually paid to Manager hereunder
7. Indemnification.
(a) The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person from and against any Losses arising out of any claim asserted or threatened to be asserted in connection with any matter arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Company’s business or affairs; provided, however, that no Covered Person shall be entitled to any such indemnification with respect to any expense, loss, liability or damage which was caused by any Covered Person’s gross negligence, willful misconduct or reckless disregard of any of the its obligations under this Agreement. The Company shall advance to any Covered Person the reasonable costs and expenses of investigating and/or defending such claim subject to receiving a written undertaking from the Covered Person to repay such amounts if and to the extent of any subsequent determination by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction that the Covered Person was not entitled to indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be liable hereunder for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its consent thereto, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

Manager shall be authorized to cause the Company to enter into contracts, agreements and other arrangements, for the furnishing to the Company of any goods or services, with Manager and with any Affiliate of Manager, provided such contract, agreement, or other arrangement, including the fee arrangements thereunder, complies with applicable requirements under the Operating Agreement. The Manager shall have the authority to subcontract or delegate its duties and responsibilities hereunder to any one or more Affiliates of Manager; provided that all fees and other compensation payable to such Affiliate(s) are payable solely by Manager from amounts payable to Manager hereunder; and further provided that such subcontracting or delegation does not relieve Manager of its responsibility hereunder.
11. Amendment; Modification; Waiver. This Agreement may be amended, in whole or in part, with the written consent of the Manager and the Company.
