WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL 41 Exhibit A – Form of Certificate A‑1 Exhibit B – Form of Certificate of Trust B‑1 Exhibit C – Form of Repurchase Request Notice C‑1 This AMENDED AND RESTATED TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of September 1, 2019 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, this “Agreement”), is between DAIMLER RETAIL RECEIVABLES LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as depositor (the “Depositor”), and WILMINGTON TRUST, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, a national banking association, as trustee (the “Owner Trustee”).
Compensation and Indemnification The Company agrees promptly to pay the Warrant Agent the compensation to be agreed upon with the Company for all services rendered by the Warrant Agent and to reimburse the Warrant Agent for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by the Warrant Agent in connection with the services rendered hereunder by the Warrant Agent. The Company also agrees to indemnify the Warrant Agent for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the Warrant Agent, arising out of or in connection with its acting as Warrant Agent hereunder, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending against any claim of such liability.
Compensation and Indemnity The Company shall pay to the Trustee from time to time compensation for its acceptance of this Indenture and services hereunder as shall be agreed in writing by the Company and the Trustee, including for any Agent capacity in which it acts. The Trustee’s compensation shall not be limited by any law on compensation of a trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee promptly upon request for all reasonable disbursements, advances and expenses incurred or made by it in addition to the compensation for its services. Such expenses shall include the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, claims or expenses incurred by it, including in any Agent capacity in which it acts, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its duties under this Indenture, including the costs and expenses of enforcing this Indenture against the Company (including this Section 8.07) and defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company or any Holder or any other Person) or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except to the extent any such loss, liability or expense may be attributable to its gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Trustee shall notify the Company promptly of any claim for which it may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of its obligations hereunder. The Company shall defend the claim and the Trustee shall cooperate in the defense. The Trustee may have separate counsel and the Company shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel. The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The obligations of the Company under this Section 8.07 shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 8.07, the Trustee shall have a Lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, except that held in trust to pay principal and interest on particular Notes. Such Lien shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default specified in Section 7.01(9) or (10) hereof occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services (including the fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any Bankruptcy Code. The Trustee shall comply with the provisions of TIA § 313(b)(2) to the extent applicable.
Compensation, Reimbursement and Indemnification (a) The Company shall pay to the Trustee, and the Trustee shall be entitled to be paid, such compensation, which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust, as the Company and the Trustee from time to time may agree in writing, for all services rendered by it in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee (which compensation will not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust). Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Company will pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses and disbursements incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture, including such compensation as has been agreed between the Trustee and the Company from time to time and the expenses and disbursements of its agents, counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ, except any such expense or disbursement as may arise from its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Company shall indemnify the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (and their officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and shall hold them harmless against, any and all loss, liability, claim, damage or expense, including taxes, other than taxes based upon, measured by or determined by the income of the Trustee, reasonably incurred by the Trustee without negligence or willful misconduct on its part and arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration or enforcement of this trust, including the reasonable costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of liability whether asserted by the Company, a Guarantor, any Holder or any other Person.
(b) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.06 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses and disbursements shall: (i) be secured by a lien prior to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Securities; and (ii) survive the termination of this Indenture and resignation or removal of the Trustee.
(c) Where the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with a bankruptcy event of default, such costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under applicable Federal or State, bankruptcy, insolvency or other law.
Compensation and Indemnification of Trustee and Its Prior Claim The Issuer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee from time to time, and the Trustee shall be entitled to, such compensation as the parties shall agree in writing from time to time (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) and the Issuer covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by or on behalf of it in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all agents and other persons not regularly in its employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. The Issuer also covenants to indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Indenture or the trusts hereunder and its duties hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against or investigating any claim of liability in the premises. The obligations of the Issuer under this Section to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee and to pay or reimburse the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. Such additional indebtedness shall be a senior claim to that of the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of particular Securities or Coupons, and the Securities are hereby subordinated to such senior claim.
Master Servicer to Pay Trustee's Fees and Expenses; Indemnification (a) The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee and any co-trustee from time to time, and the Trustee and any co-trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by each of them in the execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee and any co-trustee, and the Master Servicer will pay or reimburse the Trustee and any co-trustee upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or any co-trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ, and the expenses incurred by the Trustee or any co-trustee in connection with the appointment of an office or agency pursuant to Section 8.12) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold the Trustee harmless against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the Trustee's part, arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance and administration of the Trust Fund, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against any claim in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Agreement and the Custodial Agreement, provided that:
(i) with respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall have given the Master Servicer written notice thereof promptly after the Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof;
(ii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the Trustee shall cooperate and consult fully with the Master Servicer in preparing such defense; and
(iii) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be liable for settlement of any claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations created by this Section 8.05(b) of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Trustee under the conditions and to the extent set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided by the Master Servicer in this Section 8.05(b) shall not pertain to any loss, liability or expense of the Trustee, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim, incurred in connection with any actions taken by the Trustee at the direction of the Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Master Servicer and Trustee Indemnification (a) The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, caused solely by the Trustee's failure to act in accordance with its standard of care set forth in this Article X or any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust as a result of the location of the Trustee.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and the Trustee for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys' fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Trustee, as a result of a breach of the Master Servicer's covenants set forth in Article III or this Article X or any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust as a result of the location of the Master Servicer or any subservicer.
Indemnification of Trustee The Trustee and its respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall be entitled to indemnification from the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal proceeding or incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on their part (it being understood that the negligence or willful misconduct of any Custodian shall not constitute negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or its directors, officers, employees or agents for such purpose), arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance or administration of the trusts created hereunder or in connection with the performance of the Trustee’s duties hereunder or under any Servicing Agreement or Custodial Agreement, including any applicable fees and expenses payable pursuant to Section 6.12 and the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim in connection with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder, provided that:
(i) with respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall have given the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Holders written notice thereof promptly after the Trustee shall have knowledge thereof; provided that failure to so notify shall not relieve the Trust Fund of the obligation to indemnify the Trustee;
(ii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the Trustee shall cooperate and consult fully with the Depositor in preparing such defense; and
(iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 6.11, the Trust Fund shall not be liable for settlement of any such claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
