in no other capacity. A liability arising
under or in connection with this agreement
or the Trust can be enforced against the

be satisfied out of property of the Trust

affecting the Trustee.
(iii) The provisions of this clause 1.3 shall not

indemnification out of the Assets of the
Trust as a result of the Trustee's fraud,
negligence or breach of trust.
(iv) It is acknowledged that the Trust Manager,

its obligations under this agreement) will

trust of the Trustee for the purpose of
sub-paragraph (iii) to the extent to which
the act or omission was caused or
contributed to by any failure by any
Relevant Party or any other person who
provides services in respect of the Trust
(other than a person who has been delegated
or appointed by the Trustee and for whom the
Trustee is responsible under this agreement
or the relevant Transaction Documents, but
excluding any Relevant Party) to fulfil its
obligations relating to the Trust or by any
other act or omission of a Relevant Party or
any other person who provides services in
respect of the Trust (other than a person
