liability whatsoever to any Person in connection with Trust Property or the acts, obligations or affairs of the Trust. Shareholders shall have the same limitation of personal liability as is extended to stockholders of a private corporation for
profit incorporated under the general corporation law of the State of Delaware. No Trustee or officer of the Trust shall be subject in such capacity to any personal liability whatsoever to any Person, other than the Trust or its Shareholders, in
connection with Trust Property or the affairs of the Trust, save only liability to the Trust or its Shareholders arising from bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross negligence or reckless disregard for his duty to such Person; and, subject to the
foregoing exception, all such Persons shall look solely to the Trust Property for satisfaction of claims of any nature arising in connection with the affairs of the Trust. If any Shareholder, Trustee or officer, as such, of the Trust, is made a
party to any suit or proceeding to enforce any such liability, subject to the foregoing exception, he shall not, on account thereof, be held to any personal liability. </P>

reasonable counsel fees reasonably incurred by such indemnitee in connection with the defense or disposition of any action, suit or other proceeding, whether civil or criminal, before any court or administrative or investigative body in which he may
be or may have been involved as a party or otherwise (other than, except as authorized by the Trustees, as the plaintiff or complainant) or with which he may be or may have been threatened, while acting in any capacity set forth above in this
Section&nbsp;4.2 by reason of his having acted in any such capacity, except with respect to any matter as to which he shall not have acted in good faith in the reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of the Trust or, in the case
of any criminal proceeding, as to which he shall have had reasonable cause to believe that the conduct was unlawful, provided, however, that no indemnitee shall be indemnified hereunder against any liability to any person or any expense of such
indemnitee arising by reason of (i)&nbsp;willful misfeasance, (ii)&nbsp;bad faith, (iii)&nbsp;gross negligence (negligence in the case of Affiliated Indemnitees), or (iv)&nbsp;reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his position
(the conduct referred to in such clauses (i)&nbsp;through (iv) being sometimes referred to herein as &#147;disabling conduct&#148;). Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any action, suit or other proceeding voluntarily prosecuted by any
indemnitee as plaintiff, indemnification shall be mandatory only if the prosecution of such action, suit or other proceeding by such indemnitee was authorized by a majority of the Trustees. </P>

by a court or other body of competent jurisdiction before whom the issue of entitlement to indemnification hereunder was brought that such indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder or, (2)&nbsp;in the absence of such a decision, by
(i)&nbsp;a majority vote of a quorum of those Trustees who are neither Interested Persons of the Trust nor parties to the proceeding (&#147;Disinterested <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Non-Party</FONT> Trustees&#148;), that the indemnitee is
entitled to indemnification hereunder, or (ii)&nbsp;if such quorum is not obtainable or even if obtainable, if such majority so directs, independent legal counsel in a written opinion conclude that the indemnitee should be entitled to
indemnification hereunder. All determinations to make advance payments in connection with the expense of defending any proceeding shall be authorized and made in accordance with the immediately succeeding paragraph (c)&nbsp;below. </P>

other records of the Trust, upon an opinion of counsel, or upon reports made to the Trust by any of the Trust&#146;s officers or employees or by any advisor, administrator, manager, distributor, selected dealer, accountant, appraiser or other expert
