Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not indemnify an Indemnified Person if such loss, liability, expense, damage or injury results or arises (i) as a result of fraud, gross negligence or breach of fiduciary duty by such Indemnified Person; and (ii) under any Tax law, including without limitation any federal, state or local income or franchise taxes or any other Tax imposed on or measured by income (or any interest or penalties with respect thereto or arising from a failure to comply therewith) required to be paid by the Seller, the Backup Servicer, the Collateral Custodian, the Deal Agent, the Liquidity Agent or the Purchasers in connection herewith to any taxing authority. The provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by an injured party subject to the limitations hereof. If the Servicer has made any indemnity payment pursuant to this Section 8.1 and such payment fully indemnified the recipient thereof and the recipient thereafter collects any payments from others in respect of such Indemnified Amounts, the recipient shall repay to the Servicer an amount equal to the amount it has collected from others in respect of such indemnified amounts. If for any reason the indemnification provided above in this Section 6.19 is unavailable to the Indemnified Person or is insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless, then Servicer shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by such Indemnified Person on the one hand and Servicer on the other hand but also the relative fault of such Indemnified Person as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The parties hereto agree that the provisions of this Section 6.19 shall not be interpreted to provide recourse to the Seller against loss by reason of the bankruptcy or insolvency (or other credit condition) of, or default by, related Obligor on, any Pool Asset. Any indemnification pursuant to this Section shall not be payable from the Assets. The obligations of the Servicer under this Section 6.19 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Deal Agent, the Liquidity Agent, the Backup Servicer or the Collateral Custodian and the termination of this Agreement.
Limitation on Liability of the Noteholders No Noteholder (including any Servicer on a Noteholder’s behalf, but only to the extent that the Servicing Agreement does not impose any other standard upon any Servicer, in which case the Servicing Agreement shall control) shall have any liability to any other Noteholder except with respect to losses actually suffered due to the gross negligence, willful misconduct or breach of this Agreement on the part of such Noteholder. The Note B Holder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the obligation of the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) to comply with, and except as otherwise required by, the Servicing Standard, the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that the Lead Securitization Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of the Note B Holder and that the Lead Securitization Noteholder (including any Servicer) shall have no liability whatsoever to the Note B Holder in connection with the Lead Securitization Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by the Lead Securitization Noteholder to exercise such rights other than as described above; provided, however, that such Servicer must act in accordance with the Servicing Standard. Each Noteholder acknowledges that, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, any other Noteholder may exercise, or omit to exercise, any rights that such Noteholder may have under this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in a manner that may be adverse to the interests of each other Noteholder and that such Noteholder shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Noteholder in connection with such Noteholder’s exercise of rights or any omission by such Noteholder to exercise such rights; provided, however, that such Noteholder shall not be protected against any liability to any other Noteholder that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence.

(iv) Except for the rights of indemnification provided in Sections 8 and 9(e), the Seller hereby waives any claim or cause of action pursuant to common or statutory law or otherwise against the Buyer arising from any breach by the Buyer of any of its representations, warranties or covenants under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

The Applicant shall take action to avoid and mitigate the amount of any damages claimed against the Bank or any Indemnified Person, including by enforcing its rights in the underlying transaction. Any claim by the Applicant for damages under or in connection with this Agreement, any Related Document or the Letter of Credit shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (i) the amount saved by the Applicant as a result of the breach or alleged wrongful conduct and (ii) the amount of the loss that would have been avoided had the Applicant mitigated damages.
(b) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, the Bank and each other Indemnified Person (if applicable), shall not be responsible to the Applicant for, and the Bank’s rights and remedies against the Applicant and the Applicant’s obligation to reimburse the Bank shall not be impaired by: (i) honor of a presentation under the Letter of Credit which on its face substantially complies with the terms of the Letter of Credit; (ii) honor of a presentation of any Drawing Documents which appear on their face to have been signed, presented or issued (X) by any purported successor or transferee of any beneficiary or other party required to sign, present or issue the Drawing Documents or (Y) under a new name of the beneficiary; (iii) acceptance as a draft of any written or electronic demand or request for payment under the Letter of Credit, even if nonnegotiable or not in the form of a draft, and may disregard any requirement that such draft, demand or request bear any or adequate reference to the Letter of Credit; (iv) the identity or authority of any presenter or signer of any Drawing Document or the form, accuracy, genuineness, or legal effect of any presentation under the Letter of Credit or of any Drawing Documents; (v) disregard of any non-documentary conditions stated in the Letter of Credit; (vi) acting upon any Instruction which it, in Good Faith, believes to have been given by a Person or entity authorized to give such Instruction; (vii) any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any message, advice or document (regardless of how sent or transmitted) or for errors in interpretation of technical terms or in translation; (viii) any delay in giving or failing to give any notice; (ix) any acts, omissions or fraud by, or the solvency of, any beneficiary, any nominated Person or any other Person; (x) any breach of contract between the beneficiary and the Applicant or any of the parties to the underlying transaction; (xi) assertion or waiver of any provision of the ISP which primarily benefits an issuer of a letter of credit, including, any requirement that any Drawing Document be presented to it at a particular hour or place; (xii) payment to any paying or negotiating bank (designated or permitted by the terms of the Letter of Credit) claiming that it rightfully honored or is entitled to reimbursement or indemnity under Standard Letter of Credit Practice; (xiii) dishonor of any presentation upon or during any Event of Default or for which the Applicant is unable or unwilling to reimburse or indemnify the Bank (provided that the Applicant acknowledges that if the Bank shall later be required to honor the presentation, the Applicant shall be liable therefore in accordance with Article 2 hereof); and (xiv) acting or failing to act as required or permitted under Standard Letter of Credit Practice.
