Indemnification and Limitation of Liability (a) In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties hereunder on the part of FSSC and its trustees, officers, employees, agents and representatives, the Funds agree to indemnify FSSC and its trustees, officers, employees, agents and representatives against any and all claims, demands, liabilities and reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees), related to or otherwise connected with (i) any breach by the Funds of any provision of this Agreement; or (ii) any action by a Fund’s Shareholder against FSSC.
(b) FSSC shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any Fund in connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. In no event shall FSSC be liable for indirect or consequential damages.
(c) Any person, even though also an officer, trustee, partner, employee or agent of FSSC, who may be or become an officer, employee or agent of any Fund or a member of a Fund's Board, shall be deemed, when rendering services to such Fund or acting on any business of such Fund (other than services or business in connection with the duties of FSSC hereunder) to be rendering such services to or acting solely for such Fund and not as an officer, trustee, partner, employee or agent or one under the control or direction of FSSC even though paid by FSSC.
(d) FSSC is expressly put on notice of the limitation of liability as set forth in the Declaration of Trust of each Fund that is a Massachusetts business trust and agrees that the obligations assumed by each such Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall be limited in any case to such Fund and its assets and that FSSC shall not seek satisfaction of any such obligations from the Shareholders of such Fund, the Trustees, Officers, Employees or Agents of such Fund, or any of them.
(e) The provisions of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Novation of Liabilities (a) Each Party, at the request of another Party, shall use best efforts to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any Consent, substitution or amendment required to novate or assign all obligations under Contracts, licenses and other obligations or Liabilities for which a member of such Party’s Group and a member of another Party’s Group are jointly or severally liable and that do not constitute Liabilities of such other Party as provided in this Agreement (such other Party, the “Other Party”), or to obtain in writing the unconditional release of all parties to such arrangements (other than any member of the Group who Assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement), so that, in any such case, the members of the applicable Group will be solely responsible for such Liabilities; provided, however, that no Party shall be obligated to pay any consideration therefor to any third party from whom any such Consent, substitution or amendment is requested (unless such Party is fully reimbursed by the requesting Party).
(b) If the Parties are unable to obtain, or to cause to be obtained, any such required Consent, release, substitution or amendment, the Other Party or a member of such Other Party’s Group shall continue to be bound by such Contract, license or other obligation that does not constitute a Liability of such Other Party and, unless not permitted by Law or the terms thereof, as agent or subcontractor for such Party, the Party or member of such Party’s Group who Assumed or retained such Liability as set forth in this Agreement (the “Liable Party”) shall, or shall cause a member of its Group to, pay, perform and discharge fully all the obligations or other Liabilities of such Other Party or member of such Other Party’s Group thereunder from and after the Effective Time. The Liable Party shall indemnify each Other Party and hold each of them harmless against any Liabilities (other than Liabilities of such Other Party) arising in connection therewith; provided, that the Liable Party shall have no obligation to indemnify any Other Party with respect to any matter to the extent that such Other Party has engaged in any knowing violation of Law, fraud or misrepresentation in connection therewith. The Other Party shall, without further consideration, promptly pay and remit, or cause to be promptly paid or remitted, to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group, all money, rights and other consideration received by it or any member of its Group in respect of such performance by the Liable Party (unless any such consideration is an Asset of such Other Party pursuant to this Agreement). If and when any such Consent, release, substitution or amendment shall be obtained or such agreement, lease, license or other rights or obligations shall otherwise become assignable or able to be novated, the Other Party shall promptly Transfer all rights, obligations and other Liabilities thereunder of any member of such Other Party’s Group to the Liable Party or to another member of the Liable Party’s Group without payment of any further consideration and the Liable Party, or another member of such Liable Party’s Group, without the payment of any further consideration, shall Assume such rights and Liabilities.
(c) If the Liable Party (i) suffers a downgrade to its senior debt credit rating to below BB (as rated by Standard & Poor’s) or (ii) no longer has its debt securities rated by any nationally recognized credit rating agencies, then, upon the demand of the Other Party, such Liable Party shall be required to post an irrevocable letter of credit or similar security obligation reasonably acceptable to the Other Party in an amount reasonably necessary to provide security to the Other Party for the Liable Party’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.9(b); provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply with respect to Assumed Tyco Contingent Liability. For the avoidance of doubt, the posting of such a letter of credit or similar security obligation shall in no event relieve the issuing Party’s obligations pursuant to Section 2.9(b), and shall not result in a cap or limitation on such Party’s Liabilities with respect thereto.
Limitation of Liability for Payments Section 3.09 of the Basic Agreement shall be amended, with respect to the Applicable Trust, by deleting the phrase “the Owner Trustees or the Owner Participants” in the second sentence thereof and adding in lieu thereof “the Liquidity Provider”.
