(f) AmeriCredit shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trust, the Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee, their respective officers, directors, agents and employees and the Noteholders from and against any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the violation by Servicer or Seller of federal or state securities laws in connection with the registration or the sale of the Notes.

(g) AmeriCredit shall indemnify the Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent and the respective officers, directors, agents and employees thereof against any and all loss, liability or expense, (other than overhead and expenses incurred in the normal course of business) incurred by each of them in connection with the acceptance or administration of the Trust and the performance of their duties under the Basic Documents other than if such loss, liability or expense was incurred by the Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Trust Collateral Agent as a result of any such entity’s willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence.
(h) Indemnification under this Article shall include, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation.

Liability of Servicer; Indemnification (a) The Servicer shall not be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer and the Servicer shall be obligated to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering the Home Equity Loans. The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in such Sub-Servicing Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify this Agreement.
(b) The Servicer agrees to indemnify and hold the Trustee, the Depositor and each Owner harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the Depositor and any Owner may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Home Equity Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer shall immediately notify the Trustee, the Depositor and each Owner if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor and/or Owner in respect of such claim. The Trustee shall, in accordance with written instructions received from the Servicer, reimburse the Servicer only from amounts otherwise distributable on the Class R Certificates for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence, except when a final nonappealable adjudication determines that the claim relates directly to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties in compliance with the Agreement. The provisions of this Section 8.05(b) shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the resignation or removal of the Trustee, and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.
Certain Limits on Indemnification Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement (other than Section 6), Indemnitee shall not be entitled to:
(a) indemnification hereunder if the Proceeding was one by or in the right of the Company and Indemnitee is adjudged, in a final adjudication of the Proceeding not subject to further appeal, to be liable to the Company;
(b) indemnification hereunder if Indemnitee is adjudged, in a final adjudication of the Proceeding not subject to further appeal, to be liable on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received in any Proceeding charging improper personal benefit to Indemnitee, whether or not involving action in the Indemnitee’s Corporate Status; or
(c) indemnification or advance of Expenses hereunder if the Proceeding was brought by Indemnitee, unless: (i) the Proceeding was brought to enforce indemnification under this Agreement, and then only to the extent in accordance with and as authorized by Section 12 of this Agreement, or (ii) the Company’s charter or Bylaws, a resolution of the stockholders entitled to vote generally in the election of directors or of the Board of Directors or an agreement approved by the Board of Directors to which the Company is a party expressly provide otherwise.
Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status In the event that any REMIC under which any of the Mortgage Loans are held from time to time fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Reconstitution Parties against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses ("Losses") resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Reconstitution Parties, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Reconstitution Parties on which the Servicer has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Reconstitution Parties now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages.
Limitations on Indemnification Obligations The rights of the Indemnified Parties to indemnification pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.2(a) and Section 7.2(b) are subject to the following provisions:
(a) None of the Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for any particular Loss pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) (except in the case of Fraud) unless such Loss equals or exceeds $10,000 (and no such Loss less than $10,000 shall be applied against the Deductible).
(b) The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i) (except in the case of Fraud) until the total amount which the Indemnified Parties would recover under Section 7.2(a)(i) or Section 7.2(b)(i), as applicable, in the aggregate (as limited by the other provisions hereof), but for this Section 7.4(b), exceeds $1,192,500 (the “Deductible”), in which case the applicable Indemnified Parties shall only be entitled to recover Losses in excess of such amount, subject to the other limitations herein.
(c) Except, in each case, in the case of Fraud, (i) the maximum liability of Seller to the Purchaser Indemnitees with respect to any Losses of the Purchaser Indemnitees indemnifiable pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(i) shall not exceed $1,192,500 and (ii) the maximum liability of Seller or Purchaser, as applicable, for indemnifiable Losses pursuant to this Article VII shall not exceed the Aggregate Purchase Price.
(d) The amount of any and all Losses indemnifiable hereunder shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties under insurance policies (excluding, in the case of the Purchaser Indemnitees, the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy) or other collateral sources (such as contractual indemnities of any Person which are contained outside of this Agreement) with respect to such Losses (which amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties shall be calculated, in each case, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery). In any case where a Purchaser Indemnitee actually recovers, under insurance policies (excluding, in the case of the Purchaser Indemnitees, the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy) or from other collateral sources, any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was previously indemnified hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Responsible Party a refund equal to the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery), if and solely to the extent that such amount of recovery would have reduced the amount to which the Indemnified Party would have been entitled pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.4(d), but not in excess of the aggregate amount previously paid to the Indemnified Parties hereunder in respect of such matter.
(e) The Purchaser Indemnitees shall use commercially reasonable efforts to recover under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, to the extent available and subject to applicable retention and other coverage limitations thereunder, for any Losses for Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or for any Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) prior to seeking indemnification from Seller under this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 7.4(e) shall limit the Purchaser Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) to the extent that recovery is not available under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy for any reason with respect to all or any portion of such Losses. The amount of any and all indemnifiable Losses for Indemnified Taxes pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(iv) or for any indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Section 7.2(a)(ii) shall be determined net of any amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy with respect to such Losses (which amounts actually recovered by the Indemnified Parties shall be calculated, in each case, net of any reasonable out-of-pocket costs and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery). In any case where a Purchaser Indemnitee actually recovers under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy any amount in respect of a matter for which such Indemnified Party was previously indemnified hereunder, such Indemnified Party shall promptly pay over to the Responsible Party a refund equal to the amount so recovered (after deducting therefrom the amount of the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses and any Taxes incurred in connection with such recovery), if and solely to the extent that such amount of recovery would have reduced the amount to which the Indemnified Party would have been entitled pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 7.4(e), but not in excess of the aggregate amount previously paid to the Indemnified Parties hereunder in respect of such matter; provided that for the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser shall not be required to repay to Seller any amounts recovered under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy to the extent such repayment would, after taking into account the deductible and other limitations under the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy, have the effect of reducing the amount of indemnifiable Losses actually recovered by Purchaser with respect to such claim below the amount of indemnified Losses to which Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to recover from Seller pursuant to this Article VII, but for this Section 7.4(e). Purchaser covenants and agrees that the Representation and Warranty Insurance Policy will expressly exclude any right of subrogation against the Seller Group (other than with respect to Fraud).
(f) The Indemnified Parties shall be entitled to recover for a Loss only once under Article VII even if a claim or claims for indemnification in respect of such Loss has been made as a result of a breach of more than one representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement.
(g) The Indemnified Parties shall not be entitled to recover any Loss to the extent such Loss was included in or otherwise expressly taken into account in the determination of the Aggregate Purchase Price.
(h) The rights to indemnification of the Indemnified Parties under this Article VII shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of any party hereto (including by any of such party’s advisors or representatives) or by reason of the fact that such party or any of such advisors or representatives knew or should have known that any representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate.
(i) For purposes of determining the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the Company set forth in Article III or the Seller set forth in Article IV and in calculating the amount of any Losses attributable thereto, any “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect,” or similar qualifications in such representations and warranties shall be disregarded, except that the foregoing shall not apply to (i) the use of the term “Material Contract” in any representation or warranty or (ii) any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.4(a) or Section 3.6(a).
(j) The Purchaser Indemnitees shall only be entitled to recover under this Article VII for any breach of any representations and warranties regarding Losses for Taxes with respect to taxable periods, or portions thereof, that end on or before the Closing Date, except to the extent such Losses arise from or are attributable to a breach of the representations or warranties contained in Sections 3.15(e), 3.15(k) or 3.15(l).
Liability for Certain Acts The Manager shall perform the Manager’s duties in good faith, in a manner it reasonably believes to be in the best interests of the Company, and with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. No Manager shall have any liability by reason of being or having been the Manager of the Company. No Manager in any way guarantees the return of the Members’ Capital Contributions or a profit for the Members from the operations of the Company. No Manager shall be liable to the Company or to any Member for any loss or damage sustained by the Company or any Member, unless the loss or damage shall have been the result of fraud, deceit, gross negligence, willful misconduct, breach of this Agreement or a wrongful taking by the Manager.
Allocation of Liabilities The IMS Health Group shall assume all Liabilities with respect to awards granted to IMS Health Employees, IMS Health Retirees, Corporation Retirees and IMS Health Disabled Employees pursuant to the IMS Health Replacement Option Plan. The Corporation Group shall retain all other Liabilities with respect to awards granted pursuant to the Corporation Stock Option Plans (including, but not limited to, awards granted to Corporation Post-Distribution Employees).
Limitation of Liability of the Administrator; Indemnification The Administrator (and its members, managers, officers, employees, agents, controlling persons and any other person or entity affiliated with it) shall not be liable to the Company for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrator in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as administrator for the Company and the Company shall indemnify, defend and protect the Administrator (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members, and any other person or entity affiliated with the Administrator each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from and against all damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Company or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise based upon the performance of any of the Administrator’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as administrator for the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Section 5 to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall protect or be deemed to protect the Indemnified Parties against or entitle or be deemed to entitle the Indemnified Parties to indemnification in respect of, any liability to the Company or its security holders to which the Indemnified Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of the Administrator’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Administrator’s duties and obligations under this Agreement (to the extent applicable, as the same shall be determined in accordance with the Investment Company Act and any interpretations or guidance by the SEC or its staff thereunder).
Certain Liabilities To the Borrower's actual knowledge, none of the present or previously owned or operated Property of the Borrower or any Guarantor or of any of their former Subsidiaries, wherever located: (i) has been placed on or proposed to be placed on the National Priorities List, the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation Liability Information System list, or their state or local analogs, or have been otherwise investigated, designated, listed, or identified as a potential site for removal, remediation, cleanup, closure, restoration, reclamation, or other response activity under any Environmental Laws; (ii) is subject to a Lien, arising under or in connection with any Environmental Laws, that attaches to any revenues or to any Property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of the Guarantors, wherever located, which could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change; or (iii) has been the site of any Release of Hazardous Substances or Hazardous Wastes from present or past operations which has caused at the site or at any third-party site any condition that has resulted in or could reasonably be expected to result in the need for Response that would cause a Material Adverse Change.
Limitation of Liability of the Adviser; Indemnification The Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its general partner and the Administrator) shall not be liable to the Corporation for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Adviser in connection with the performance of any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Corporation, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Investment Company Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty (as the same is finally determined by judicial proceedings) with respect to the receipt of compensation for services, and the Corporation shall indemnify, defend and protect the Adviser (and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser, including without limitation its general partner and the Administrator, each of whom shall be deemed a third party beneficiary hereof) (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) and hold them harmless from and against all damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Corporation or its security holders) arising out of or otherwise based upon the performance of any of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under this Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence of this Paragraph 9 to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall protect or be deemed to protect the Indemnified Parties against or entitle or be deemed to entitle the Indemnified Parties to indemnification in respect of, any liability to the Corporation or its security holders to which the Indemnified Parties would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of the Adviser’s duties and obligations under this Agreement (as the same shall be determined in accordance with the Investment Company Act and any interpretations or guidance by the Securities and Exchange Commission or its staff thereunder).
