EY was engaged by S&P DJI to perform an examination on management's assertion regarding their adherence with the IOSCO Principles for Financial Benchmarks for the period June 1, 2017 to May 31, 2018 (the "Services"). S&P DJI has informed EY that it wishes to disclose a copy of the Report in connection with the Services to the entity obtaining access hereunder (referred to herein as, the "Recipient").

   The Recipient understands that the Services were undertaken, and the Report was prepared, solely for the information and use of S&P DJI and its specified users, and was not intended for use by any other persons. EY has made no representation or warranty to the Recipient as to the sufficiency of the Services, or otherwise with respect to the Report. Had EY been engaged to perform additional services or procedures, other matters might have come to EY’s attention that would have been addressed in the Report.

   The Services did not constitute (1) an audit, review or examination of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, (2) an examination of prospective financial statements in accordance with applicable professional standards, or (3) a review to detect fraud or illegal acts. The Services did not include any procedures to test compliance with the laws or regulations of any jurisdiction.

   The Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that it does not acquire any rights against EY, any other member firm of the global EY network, or any of their respective affiliates, partners, agents, representatives or employees (collectively, the "EY Parties"), and EY assumes no duty or liability to the Recipient in connection with the Services or the Report. The Recipient may not rely on the Report and will not contend that any provisions of United States or state securities laws could invalidate or avoid any provision of this agreement.

   In addition, except where compelled by legal process (of which the Recipient shall promptly inform EY and tender to EY, if EY so elects, the defense thereof), the Recipient will not disclose, orally or in writing, the Report or any portion thereof, or make any reference to EY in connection therewith, in any public document or to any third party.

   The Recipient (for itself and its successors and assigns) hereby releases each of the EY Parties from any and all claims or causes of action that it has, or hereafter may or shall have, against them in connection with the Report, the Recipient’s access to the Report, or EY’s performance of the Services. The Recipient shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the EY Parties from and against all claims, liabilities, losses and expenses suffered or incurred by any of them arising out of or in connection with (1) any breach of this agreement by the Recipient or its representatives; and/or (2) any use or disclosure of, or reliance on, the Report or any portion thereof to or by any other party that obtains access to the Report, directly or indirectly, from or through the Recipient or at its request.
