Payment of Indemnification If, in regard to any Losses:
Exclusion of Indemnification Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, there shall be no right to indemnification for any liability arising by reason of the Agent’s Disqualifying Conduct. In respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which that Person shall have been adjudged to be liable in the performance of that Person’s duty to the Trust or the Shareholders, indemnification shall be made only to the extent that the court in which that action was brought shall determine, upon application or otherwise, that in view of all the circumstances of the case, that Person was not liable by reason of that Person’s Disqualifying Conduct.
Operation of Indemnities Indemnification under this Article shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Company or the Servicer has made any indemnity payments to the Trustee pursuant to this Article and the Trustee thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the Trust will repay such amounts collected to the Company or the Servicer, as the case may be, without interest.
