To the extent, if any, that the Seller (or any Affiliate thereof) shares items of expenses not reflected in the Servicing Fee or the manager’s fee, such as legal, auditing and other professional services, such expenses will be allocated to the extent practical on the basis of actual use or the value of services rendered, and otherwise on a basis reasonably related to the actual use or the value of services rendered; provided, that the Servicer may pay all (or any portion of) the expenses relating to the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents, including legal, agency and other fees.

(j) The Seller’s assets will be maintained in a manner that facilitates their identification and segregation from those of Vistra, the Servicer or any Originator or any of their respective other Affiliates.

Neither the Seller, on the one hand, nor the Servicer or any Originator, on the other, will be or will hold itself out to be responsible for the debts of the other or the decisions or actions respecting the daily business and affairs of the other. The Seller and the Servicer will immediately correct any known misunderstanding with respect to the foregoing, and they will not operate or purport to operate as an integrated economic unit with respect to each other or in their dealing with any other entity. (m) None of Vistra, the Servicer or other Originator shall pay the salaries of Seller’s employees, if any.
