Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if PFS has exercised reasonable care in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Trust shall indemnify and hold harmless PFS from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities (whether with or without basis in fact or law) of any and every nature (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which PFS may sustain or incur or which may be asserted against PFS by any person arising out of any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in performing the services hereunder, except for any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities arising out of or relating to PFS's refusal or failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or from bad faith, negligence or from willful misconduct on its part in performance of its duties under this Agreement, (i) in accordance with the foregoing standards, or (ii) in reliance upon any written or oral instruction provided to PFS by any duly authorized officer of the Trust, such duly authorized officer to be included in a list of authorized officers furnished to PFS and as amended from time to time in writing by resolution of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. PFS shall indemnify and hold the Trust harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, expenses, and liabilities (whether with or without basis in fact or law) of any and every nature (including reasonable attorneys' fees) which the Trust may sustain or incur or which may be asserted against the Trust by any person arising out of any action taken or omitted to be taken by PFS as a result of PFS's refusal or failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement, its bad faith, negligence, or willful misconduct.

The indemnitor shall have the option to defend the indemnitee against any claim which may be the subject of this indemnification. In the event that the indemnitor so elects, it will so notify the indemnitee and thereupon the indemnitor shall take over complete defense of the claim, and the indemnitee shall in such situation initiate no further legal or other expenses for which it shall seek indemnification under this section.

Defects Liability 9.1 In this Contract, and subject to Clause 9.2, a defect shall mean any non-conformity of the Supplies with the express terms of this Contract resulting from circumstances existing in the Supplies at the time of the transfer of risk to the Customer (“Defects”).
9.2 In particular, the following shall not be Defects:
a) normal wear and tear, non-conformity resulting from excessive strain,
b) non-conformity resulting from faulty or negligent handling; non-compliance with instructions or recommendations in operation or maintenance manuals and other documents;
c) installation, erection, modification, commissioning, or pre- commissioning, in each case not carried out by Siemens,
d) non-reproducible software errors,
e) defects which do not significantly impair the use of the respective Supplies.
9.3 The Customer shall immediately inspect the Supplies upon delivery and shall notify Siemens in writing of any Defects without undue delay. The Customer’s claims in respect of defects shall be excluded for any apparent defects if the Customer has failed to do so. Upon such written notification, Siemens shall, at its option, remedy a Defect by repair, replacement, or re-performance. Siemens shall be given a reasonable period of time and opportunity to remedy the Defect. For this purpose, the Customer shall grant Siemens working access to the non- conforming Supplies, shall undertake any necessary dis- assembly and re-assembly, and shall provide access to operation and maintenance data, all at no charge to Siemens. Upon Siemens’ request, the Customer shall ensure that the title to the replaced parts/items shall pass to Siemens.
9.4 Unless otherwise agreed, the defects liability period for any part of the Supplies is 12 months. It starts at the date of transfer of risk. For replaced or repaired parts of the Supplies, the defects liability period is 6 months from the date of replacement or repair, if the original defects liability period for the Supplies expires earlier. In any event, the defects liability period shall end no later than 24 months from the beginning of the original defects liability period.
9.5 If software is defective, Siemens shall only be obliged to provide the Customer with an updated version of the software in which the Defect has been remedied when such updated version is reasonably available from Siemens or, if Siemens is only licensee, from Siemens’ licensor. If the software has been modified or individually developed by Siemens, Siemens shall in addition provide the Customer with a workaround or other interim corrective solution until the provision of an updated version of the software, if such workaround or interim solution is feasible at reasonable expense and if otherwise the Customer’s business operations would be substantially impeded.
9.6 If Siemens carries out remedial work and it is ultimately not established that there was a Defect, the Customer shall pay Siemens for such remedial work including error diagnosis.
9.7 Any other liability of Siemens and any claims, rights and remedies of the Customer in case of defects of the Supplies shall be excluded except as expressly stipulated in this Clause 9 and – provided Siemens failed at least three times in remedying the defect – in Clause 15.2 b). All warranties, representations, conditions, and all other terms of any kind whatsoever implied by statute or law are, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, excluded from this Contract.

Maximum Liability The provisions of this Loan Guaranty are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Loan Guarantor’s liability under this Loan Guaranty, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Loan Guarantors or the Lenders, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Loan Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”.

Each Loan Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Loan Guarantor without impairing this Loan Guaranty or affecting the rights and remedies of the Lenders hereunder, provided that, nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Loan Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.
