Liability of NCPS a. NCPS undertakes to perform only such duties as are expressly set forth herein and no duties shall be implied. NCPS shall have no liability under and no duty to inquire as to the provisions of any agreement other than this Escrow Agreement, including without limitation the Offering Document. NCPS shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that NCPS’s gross negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of any loss to the Issuer, Broker or any Subscriber. NCPS’s sole responsibility shall be for the safekeeping and disbursement of the Escrow Funds in accordance with the terms of this Escrow Agreement. NCPS shall have no implied duties or obligations and shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any fact or circumstance not specifically set forth herein. NCPS may rely upon any notice, instruction, request or other instrument, not only as to its due execution, validity and effectiveness, but also as to the truth and accuracy of any information contained therein, which NCPS shall believe to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the person or parties purporting to sign the same. In no event shall NCPS be liable for incidental, indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages (including, but not limited to lost profits), even if NCPS has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. NCPS shall not be obligated to take any legal action or commence any proceeding in connection with the Escrow Funds, any account in which Escrow Funds are deposited, this Escrow Agreement or the Offering Document, or to appear in, prosecute or defend any such legal action or proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, NCPS shall not be responsible for or required to enforce any of the terms or conditions of any subscription agreement with any Subscriber or any other agreement between Issuer, Broker and/or any Subscriber. NCPS shall not be responsible or liable in any manner for the performance by Issuer or any Subscriber of their respective obligations under any subscription agreement nor shall NCPS be responsible or liable in any manner for the failure of Issuer, Broker or any third party (including any Subscriber) to honor any of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement. NCPS may consult legal counsel selected by it in the event of any dispute or question as to the construction of any of the provisions hereof or of any other agreement or of its duties hereunder, or relating to any dispute involving any party hereto, and shall incur no liability and shall be fully indemnified from any reasonable liability whatsoever in acting in accordance with the reasonable opinion or instruction of such counsel. Issuer shall promptly pay, upon demand, the reasonable fees and expenses of any such counsel. b. NCPS is authorized, in its sole discretion, to comply with orders issued or process entered by any court with respect to the Escrow Funds, without determination by NCPS of such court's jurisdiction in the matter. If any portion of the Escrow Funds is at any time attached, garnished or levied upon under any court order, or in case the payment, assignment, transfer, conveyance or delivery of any such property shall be stayed or enjoined by any court order, or in case any order, judgment or decree shall be made or entered by any court affecting such property or any part thereof, then and in any such event, NCPS is authorized, in its reasonable discretion, to rely upon and comply with any such order, writ, judgment or decree which it is advised by legal counsel selected by it is binding upon it without the need for appeal or other action; and if NCPS complies with any such order, writ, judgment or decree, it shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity by reason of such compliance even though such order, writ, judgment or decree may be subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside or vacated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, NCPS shall provide the Issuer and Broker with immediate notice of any such court order or similar demand and the opportunity to interpose an objection or obtain a protective order.
Liability of Servicer 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 or otherwise, 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 Mortgage 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. The Trust shall not indemnify the Servicer for any losses due to the Servicer's negligence.
Liability of Administrator; Indemnities (a) The Administrator shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically undertaken by the Administrator under this Agreement. (b) The Administrator shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Issuer, the Excess Distribution Certificateholder and the Noteholders and any of the officers, directors, employees and agents of the Issuer from and against any and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, actions, suits, damages and liabilities to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon any such Person through, the gross negligence, willful misfeasance or bad faith of the Administrator in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder or thereunder. (c) The Administrator shall indemnify the Indenture Trustee in its individual capacity and any of its officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all losses, claims, actions, suits, damages, liabilities, costs, penalties, taxes (excluding taxes payable by it on any compensation received by it for its services as Indenture Trustee) or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by it in connection with the performance of its duties under the Indenture and the other Basic Documents. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Issuer and the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Indenture Trustee to so notify the Issuer and the Administrator shall not relieve the Issuer or the Administrator of its obligations hereunder and under the other Basic Documents. The Administrator shall defend the claim and the Administrator shall not be liable for the legal fees and expenses of the Indenture Trustee after it has assumed such defense; provided, however, that in the event that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Indenture Trustee and the Administrator in conducting the defense of such claim, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to separate counsel, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer. Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator need to reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Indenture Trustee through the Indenture Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. (d) The Administrator shall indemnify the Eligible Lender Trustee (including in its capacity as Interim Eligible Lender Trustee) and/or the Delaware Trustee in their individual capacities and any of their officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all loss, liabilities, actions, suits, claims, damages, costs, penalties, taxes (excluding taxes payable by them on any compensation received by them for their services as trustee) or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by them in connection with the performance of their duties under the Interim Trust Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the other Basic Documents. (e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator shall indemnify the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Delaware Trustee in their individual capacities and any of their officers, directors, employees and agents against any and all liability relating to or resulting from any of the following: (i) any claim that the Trust Student Loans (or any guarantee with respect thereto) are delinquent, uncollectable, uninsured, illegal, invalid or unenforceable; (ii) any claim that the Trust Student Loans have not been made, administered, serviced or collected in accordance with applicable federal and state laws or the requirements of any Guarantor; (iii) any claim that any original note or other document evidencing or relating to the Trust Student Loans has been lost, misplaced or destroyed; and (iv) any claim for failure to comply with the provisions of 34 CFR Sec. 682.203(b) (other than for the Eligible Lender Trustee’s failure to qualify as an eligible lender under the Act). (f) The Eligible Lender Trustee and/or the Delaware Trustee shall notify the Administrator promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Eligible Lender Trustee and/or the Delaware Trustee to so notify the Administrator shall not relieve the Administrator of its obligations hereunder and under the other Basic Documents. The Administrator shall defend the claim and the Administrator shall not be liable for the legal fees and expenses of the Eligible Lender Trustee and/or the Delaware Trustee after it has assumed such defense; provided, however, that in the event that there may be a conflict between the positions of the Eligible Lender Trustee and/or the Delaware Trustee and the Administrator in conducting the defense of such claim, the Eligible Lender Trustee and/or the Delaware Trustee shall be entitled to separate counsel, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Administrator on behalf of the Issuer. Neither the Issuer nor the Administrator need reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Eligible Lender Trustee or the Delaware Trustee through the Eligible Lender Trustee’s or the Delaware Trustee’s own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. (g) The Administrator shall pay reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and the Eligible Lender Trustee and shall reimburse the Indenture Trustee, the Eligible Lender Trustee and the Delaware Trustee for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances. (h) For purposes of this Section 4.2, in the event of the termination of the rights and obligations of the Administrator (or any successor thereto pursuant to Section 4.3 below) as Administrator pursuant to Section 5.1 below, or a resignation by such Administrator pursuant to this Agreement, such Administrator shall be deemed to be the Administrator pending appointment of a successor Administrator pursuant to Section 5.2 below. (i) Indemnification under this Section 4.2 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Eligible Lender Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or the termination of this Agreement and shall include reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation. If the Administrator shall have made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Section and the Person to or on behalf of whom such payments are made thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, such Person shall promptly repay such amounts to the Administrator, without interest.
Liability of Administrator Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Administrator shall not have any obligations under this Agreement other than those specifically set forth herein, and no implied obligations of the Administrator shall be read into this Agreement. Neither the Administrator nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own negligence or willful misconduct and in no event shall the Administrator be liable under or in connection with this Agreement for indirect, special or consequential losses or damages of any kind, including lost profits, even if advised of the possibility thereof and regardless of the form of action by which such losses or damages may be claimed. Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrator may (a) consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Issuer), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts and (b) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice (including notice by telephone), consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by facsimile) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.
Survivability of Servicer Liabilities Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of the Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer which accrued prior to such termination shall survive such termination.
Limitation of Liability of the Administrator The duties of the Administrator shall be confined to those expressly set forth herein, and no implied duties are assumed by or may be asserted against the Administrator hereunder. The Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss arising out of any act or omission in carrying out its duties hereunder, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder, except as may otherwise be provided under provisions of applicable law which cannot be waived or modified hereby. Any person, even though also an employee, or agent of the Administrator, who may be or become an officer, Trustee, employee or agent of the Trust or the Funds shall be deemed, when rendering services to the Trust or the Funds, or acting on any business of that party, to be rendering such services to or acting solely for that party and not as a partner, employee, or agent or one under the control or direction of the Administrator even though paid by it. So long as the Administrator acts in good faith and with due diligence and without negligence, the Trust assumes full responsibility and shall indemnify the Administrator, its employees, agents, directors, officers and nominees and hold them harmless from and against any and all actions, suits and claims, whether groundless or otherwise, and from and against any and all losses, damages, costs, charges, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, payments, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable investigation expenses) arising directly or indirectly out of the Administrator’s actions taken or non-actions with respect to the performance of services hereunder. The indemnity and defense provisions set forth herein shall indefinitely survive the termination of this Agreement. The rights hereunder shall include the right to reasonable advances of defense expenses in the event of any pending or threatened litigation with respect to which indemnification hereunder may ultimately be merited. In order that the indemnification provision contained herein shall apply, however, it is understood that if in any case the Trust may be asked to indemnify or hold the Administrator harmless, the Trust shall be fully and promptly advised of all pertinent facts concerning the situation in question, and it is further understood that the Administrator will use all reasonable care to identify and notify the Trust promptly concerning any situation which presents or appears likely to present the probability of such a claim for indemnification against the Trust, but failure to do so in good faith shall not affect the rights hereunder. The Trust shall be entitled to participate at its own expense or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any claims subject to this indemnity provision. If the Trust elects to assume the defense of any such claim, the defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by the Trust and satisfactory to the Administrator, whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. In the event that the Trust elects to assume the defense of any suit and retain counsel, the Administrator shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it. If the Trust does not elect to assume the defense of a suit, it will reimburse the Administrator for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by the Administrator. The Administrator may apply to the Trust at any time for instructions and may consult counsel for the Trust or its own counsel and with accountants and other experts with respect to any matter arising in connection with the Administrator’s duties, and the Administrator shall not be liable or accountable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith in accordance with such instruction or with the opinion of such counsel, accountants or other experts. The Administrator shall be protected in acting upon any document which it reasonably believes to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Administrator will not be held to have notice of any change of authority of any officers, employees or agents of the Trust until receipt of written notice thereof from the Trust.
Liability of Servicer; Indemnities (a) The Servicer (in its capacity as such) shall be liable hereunder only to the extent of the obligations in this Agreement specifically undertaken by the Servicer and the representations made by the Servicer. (b) The Servicer shall defend, indemnify 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 and all costs, expenses, losses, damages, claims and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation arising out of or resulting from the use, ownership or operation by the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof of any Financed Vehicle. (c) The Servicer (when the Servicer is 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 taxes that may at any time be asserted against any of such parties with respect to the transactions or activities contemplated in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible or intangible personal property, privilege or license taxes (but not including any federal or other income taxes, including franchise taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of, the sale of the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property to the Trust or the issuance and original sale of the Notes) and costs and expenses in defending against the same. (d) The Servicer (when the Servicer is not AmeriCredit) shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Trust, the Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent, the Owner Trustee, the Collateral Agent, their respective officers, directors, agents and employees and the Noteholders from and against any taxes with respect to the sale of Receivables in connection with servicing hereunder that may at any time be asserted against any of such parties with respect to the transactions or activities contemplated in this Agreement, including, without limitation, any sales, gross receipts, general corporation, tangible or intangible personal property, privilege or license taxes (but not including any federal or other income taxes, including franchise taxes asserted with respect to, and as of the date of, the sale of the Receivables and the Other Conveyed Property to the Trust or the issuance and original sale of the Notes) and costs and expenses in defending against the same. (e) The Servicer 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 and all costs, expenses, losses, claims, damages, and liabilities, including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and expenses of litigation, to the extent that such cost, expense, loss, claim, damage, or liability arose out of, or was imposed upon the Trust, the Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Trust Collateral Agent or the Noteholders by reason of the breach of this Agreement by the Servicer, the negligence, misfeasance, or bad faith of the Servicer in the performance of its duties under this Agreement or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement. (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. This section shall survive the termination of this Agreement, or the earlier removal or resignation of the Trustee or the Trust Collateral Agent. (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. If the Servicer has made any indemnity payments pursuant to this Article and the recipient thereafter collects any of such amounts from others, the recipient shall promptly repay such amounts collected to the Servicer, without interest. (i) When the Trustee or the Trust Collateral Agent incurs expenses after the occurrence of a Servicer Termination Event specified in Section 9.1(d) or (e) with respect to the Servicer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.
Liability of the Administrator No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to protect the Administrator against any liability to the Fund or its shareholders to which it might otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or the reckless disregard of its obligations under this Agreement.
Liability of Consultant In furnishing the Company with management advice and other services as herein provided, Consultant shall not be liable to the Company or its creditors for errors of judgment or for anything except malfeasance or gross negligence in the performance of his duties or reckless disregard of the obligations and duties under the terms of this Agreement. It is further understood and agreed that Consultant may rely upon information furnished to it reasonably believed to be accurate and reliable and that, except as set forth herein in the first paragraph of this Section 12, Consultant shall not be accountable for any loss suffered by the Company by reason of the Company's action or non-action on the basis of any advice, recommendation or approval of Consultant. The parties further acknowledge that Consultant undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy of any statements to be made by management contained in press releases or other communications, including, but not limited to, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Limitation on Liability of Servicer The Servicer shall not be under any liability to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Administrator, the Eligible Lender Trustee or the Indenture Trustee except as provided under this Agreement, for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action pursuant to this Agreement, for errors in judgment, for any incorrect or incomplete information provided by schools, borrowers, Guarantors and the Department, for the failure of any party to this Servicing Agreement or any other Basic Document to comply with its respective obligations hereunder or under any other Basic Document or for any losses attributable to the insolvency of any Guarantor; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer against its obligation to purchase Student Loans from the Trust pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof or to pay to the Trust amounts required pursuant to Section 3.5 hereof or against any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement. The Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any person respecting any matters arising under this Agreement. Except as provided in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action where it is not named as a party; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any reasonable action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and the rights and duties of the parties to this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and the interests of the Noteholders. To the extent that the Servicer is required to appear in or is made a defendant in any legal action or other proceeding relating to the servicing of the Trust Student Loans, the Issuer shall indemnify and hold the Servicer harmless from all cost, liability or expense of the Servicer not arising out of or relating to the failure of the Servicer to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
