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.
Compensation; Indemnity; Fees The Depositor agrees:
(a) to pay to the Issuer Trustees from time to time such reasonable compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder as may be agreed by the Depositor and the Issuer Trustees from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);
(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Issuer Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Issuer Trustees in accordance with any provision of this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of their agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to their negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and
(c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Issuer Trustee, (ii) any Affiliate of any Issuer Trustee, (iii) any officer, director, shareholder, employee, representative or agent of any Issuer Trustee, and (iv) any employee or agent of the Issuer Trust (referred to herein as an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of the creation, operation or dissolution of the Issuer Trust or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Issuer Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust Agreement, except that no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions. The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall survive the termination of this Trust Agreement and the removal or resignation of any Issuer Trustee. No Issuer Trustee may claim any Lien on any Trust Property as a result of any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.6. The Depositor and any Issuer Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trust and the Holders of Trust Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Issuer Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Neither the Depositor nor any Issuer Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Issuer Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Issuer Trust, could be taken by the Issuer Trust, and the Depositor and any Issuer Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Issuer Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, or may act as depository for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Depositor or its Affiliates.
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).
Payment of Costs and Legal Fees and Reinstatement of Benefits In the event any dispute or controversy arising under or in connection with the Executive’s termination is resolved in favor of the Executive, whether by judgment, arbitration or settlement, the Executive shall be entitled to the payment of (a) all legal fees incurred by the Executive in resolving such dispute or controversy, and (b) any back-pay, including Base Salary, bonuses and any other cash compensation, fringe benefits and any compensation and benefits due to the Executive under this Agreement.
Compensation; Payment of Fees and Expenses As compensation for the performance of the Administrator’s obligations under this Agreement, the Administrator shall be entitled to receive $2,500 annually, which shall be solely an obligation of the Servicer; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, such compensation shall in no event exceed the Servicing Fee for the related annual period. The Administrator shall pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder.
INADEQUACY OF DAMAGES Each Party agrees that damages would not be an adequate remedy for any breach by it of this Agreement and accordingly each Party shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of this Agreement.
Disclaimer of Consequential Damages Except otherwise not permitted to be limited under applicable law, neither Party will be liable to the other Party hereto or any third party for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages or for the loss of profits, business, revenues, goodwill, savings or customers, or for lost or damaged data, whether such Liability is predicated on contract, strict Liability or any other theory, and regardless, in each case, whether or not such damages were foreseeable or even if a Party has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
