It is understood and expressly stipulated that neither the holders of shares of the Trust nor any Trustee, officer, agent or employee of the Trust shall be personally liable hereunder, nor shall any resort be had to other private property for the satisfaction of any claim or obligation hereunder, but the Trust only shall be liable.

Any such indemnification shall not be payable from the assets of the Lessor. The provisions of this indemnity shall run directly to and be enforceable by the Trustee or any other Indemnified Person subject to the limitations hereof. The indemnification provided for in this Section 15.2 shall be in addition to any other indemnities available to the Trustee and shall survive the termination of the duties of the Lessees hereunder and the termination of this Lease or a document to which the Trustee is a signatory or the resignation or removal of the Trustee.

Indemnification of Trust The Distributor covenants and agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless the Trust and each of its Trustees and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Trust within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, against any loss, liability, damages, claim or expense (including the reasonable cost of investigating or defending any alleged loss, liability, damages, claim or expense and reasonable counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) based upon the 1933 Act or any other statute or common law and arising by reason of any person acquiring any Shares or Creation Units, and alleging a wrongful act of the Distributor or any of its employees or alleging that the registration statement, prospectus, shareholder reports or other information filed or made public by the Trust (as from time to time amended) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated or necessary in order to make the statements not misleading, insofar as the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Trust by or on behalf of the Distributor. In no case (i) is the indemnity of the Distributor in favor of the Trust or any other person indemnified to be deemed to protect the Trust or any other person against any liability to which the Trust or such other person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement, or (ii) is the Distributor to be liable under its indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph with respect to any claim made against the Trust or any person indemnified unless the Trust or person, as the case may be, shall have notified the Distributor in writing of the claim within a reasonable time after the summons or other first written notification giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon the Trust or upon any person (or after the Trust or such person shall have received notice of service on any designated agent). However, failure to notify the Distributor of any claim shall not relieve the Distributor from any liability which it may have to the Trust or any person against whom the action is brought otherwise than on account of its indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph. The Distributor shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce the claim, but if the Distributor elects to assume the defense, the defense shall be conducted by legal counsel chosen by the Distributor and satisfactory to the indemnified defendants whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that the Distributor elects to assume the defense of any suit and retain counsel, the defendants in the suit shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional legal counsel retained by them. If the Distributor does not elect to assume the defense of any suit, it will reimburse the indemnified defendants in the suit for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by them. The Distributor agrees to notify the Trust promptly of the commencement of any litigation, regulatory action (including an investigation) or proceedings against it or any of its officers in connection with the issue and sale of any of the Trust’s’ Shares or Creation Units.

The indemnification set forth in this section shall survive any termination or assignment of this Custodial Agreement and the termination or removal of the Custodian. The Custodian agrees to indemnify and hold the Trust Fund and Trustee, its employees, officers and directors harmless against liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements, including reasonable attorney’s fees, that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against them directly relating to or arising out of a failure to produce a Mortgage Note, Assignment or any other document related to a Mortgage Loan that was in its possession pursuant to Section 2 within two (2) Business Days after required or requested by the Trustee, and provided, that (i) Custodian previously delivered to the Trustee a Trust Receipt and Initial Certification with respect to such document (other than any Mortgage Loan identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not covered by such certification); (ii) such document is not outstanding pursuant to a Request for Release; and (iii) such document was held by the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee. In no event shall the Custodian or its directors, officers, agents and employees be liable for any special, indirect or consequential damages from any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them hereunder or in connection herewith even if advised of the possibility of such damages. The foregoing indemnification shall survive any termination or assignment of this Agreement or the removal or resignation of the Custodian hereunder.
