Exeter, the Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) and any director, manager, officer, employee or agent of Exeter or Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) may rely in good faith on the written advice of counsel or on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement.
(b) The Backup Servicer shall not be liable for any obligation of the Servicer contained in this Agreement or for any errors of the Servicer contained in any computer tape, certificate or other data or document delivered to the Backup Servicer hereunder or on which the Backup Servicer must rely in order to perform its obligations hereunder, and the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Backup Servicer, the Seller and the Noteholders shall look only to the Servicer to perform such obligations. The Backup Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee and the Custodian shall have no responsibility and shall not be in default hereunder or incur any liability for any failure, error, malfunction or any delay in carrying out any of their respective duties under this Agreement if such failure or delay results from the Backup Servicer acting in accordance with information prepared or supplied by a Person other than the Backup Servicer (or contractual agents) or the failure of any such other Person to prepare or provide such information. The Backup Servicer (including the Backup Servicer in its capacity as the successor Servicer if so appointed) shall have no responsibility, shall not be in default and shall incur no liability for (i) any act or failure to act of any third party (other than its contractual agents), including the Servicer or the Majority Noteholders, (ii) any inaccuracy or omission in a notice or communication received by the Backup Servicer from any third party (other than its contractual agents), (iii) the invalidity or unenforceability of any Receivable under applicable law, (iv) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any Receivable, or (v) the acts or omissions of any prior Servicer or any successor Backup Servicer.
(c) The parties expressly acknowledge and consent to Citibank, N.A. acting in the possible dual capacity of Backup Servicer or successor Servicer and in the capacity as Indenture Trustee. Citibank, N.A., may, in such dual or other capacity, discharge its separate functions fully, without hindrance or regard to conflict of interest principles, duty of loyalty principles or other breach of fiduciary duties to the extent that any such conflict or breach arises from the performance by Citibank, N.A., of express duties set forth in this Agreement in any of such capacities, all of which defenses, claims or assertions are hereby expressly waived by the other parties hereto and the Noteholders except in the case of gross negligence and willful misconduct by Citibank, N.A..

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. The Trust shall not indemnify the Servicer for any losses due to the Servicer's negligence.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer or Seller for indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Liability of Sub-Adviser The Sub-Adviser shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Adviser or the Trust in connection with the performance of this Agreement, except that the Sub-Adviser shall be liable to the Adviser or the Trust for any loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services or any loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence on the part of the Sub-Adviser in the performance of its duties or from reckless disregard by it of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.
Liability of the Trustee The Trustee shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by the Trustee herein. Neither the Trustee nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Trustee shall be under any liability on any Certificate or otherwise to the Depositor, either of the Sellers, the Servicer, the Certificate Insurer or any Owner for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Trustee, its directors, officers, employees or agents or any such Person against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. Subject to the foregoing sentence, the Trustee shall not be liable for losses on investments of amounts in the Certificate Account (except for any losses on obligations on which the bank serving as Trustee is the obligor). In addition, the Depositor, each of the Sellers and Servicer covenant and agree to indemnify the Trustee, and when the Trustee is acting as Servicer, the Servicer, from, and hold it harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses (including legal fees and expenses) of whatsoever kind arising out of or in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder other than those resulting from the negligence or bad faith of the Trustee, and the Depositor shall pay all amounts not otherwise paid pursuant to Sections 2.05 and 7.06 hereof. The Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith on any certificate, notice or other document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by the Authorized Officer of any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The provisions of this Section 10.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.
Liability of Trustee (a) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments that are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof, shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Trust Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor and the Administrative Agent of any material lack of conformity of any such instrument to the applicable provisions of this Trust Agreement.
(b) No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, its own bad faith, its own reckless disregard of its duties hereunder or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:
(i) the Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Trust Officer, unless it is proved that the Trustee was grossly negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and
(ii) the Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent, the Depositor, the Calculation Agent or any Holder relating to the time, place or method of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Trust Agreement.
(c) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers hereunder, if it has reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against any related risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
(d) The Trustee shall have no power to vary the corpus of the Down-MACRO Tradeable Trust.
(e) In the event that the Transfer Agent and Registrar (if not also the Trustee) fails to perform any obligation, duty or agreement in the manner or on the day required under this Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall be obligated, as soon as possible upon knowledge of a Trust Officer of such failure and receipt of appropriate records, if any, to perform such obligation, duty or agreement in the manner required hereunder.
