Compensation of Trustee Each of the Trustee and U.S. Bank National Association, as co-trustee (the "co-trustee"), shall be entitled to receive from the Depositor as compensation for its services hereunder, trustee's fees pursuant to a separate agreement among the Trustee, the co-trustee, and the Depositor, and shall be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by it (including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of its counsel and other persons not regularly in its employ). The Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Trustee and the co-trustee, and its successors, assigns, agents and servants against any and all loss, liability or reasonable expense (including attorneys' fees) incurred by it in connection with the administration of this trust and the performance of its duties thereunder. The Trustee and the co-trustee shall notify the Depositor promptly of any claim for which they may seek indemnity. Failure by the Trustee or the co-trustee to so notify the Depositor shall not relieve the Depositor of its obligations hereunder. The Depositor need not reimburse any expense or indemnify against any loss, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee or the co-trustee through the Trustee's or the co-trustee's own willful misconduct, negligence or bad faith. The indemnities contained in this Section 13 shall survive the resignation or termination of the Trustee or the co-trustee, or the termination of this Agreement. Failure by the Depositor to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Trustee or the co-trustee shall not entitle the Trustee or the co-trustee to any payment, reimbursement or indemnification from the Trust, nor shall such failure release either the Trustee or the co-trustee from the duties it is required to perform under this Series Supplement. Any unpaid, unreimbursed or unindemnified amounts shall not be borne by the Trust and shall not constitute a claim against the Trust, but shall be borne by each of the Trustee and the co-trustee in its individual capacity, and the Trustee and the co-trustee shall have no recourse against the Trust with respect thereto.
Liability of Trustees and Shareholders Any obligations of the Fund under this Agreement are not binding upon the Trustees or the Shareholders individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Fund.
Liability of Trustees, etc No recourse shall be had for any obligation of the Company hereunder, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, against any past, present or future trustee, shareholder, officer or employee of the Company, whether by virtue of any statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by Executive.
Vacancies and Appointment of Trustees In case of the declination to serve, death, resignation, retirement or removal of a Trustee, or a Trustee is otherwise unable to serve, or an increase in the number of Trustees, a vacancy shall occur. Whenever a vacancy in the Board of Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled, the other Trustees shall have all the powers hereunder and the certification of the other Trustees of such vacancy shall be conclusive. In the case of an existing vacancy, the remaining Trustees may fill such vacancy by appointing such other person as they in their discretion shall see fit, or may leave such vacancy unfilled or may reduce the number of Trustees to not less than two (2)
Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this Article XII with respect to any Senior Debt that may at any time be held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.
Certain Duties and Responsibilities of Trustee (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series and after the curing of all Events of Default with respect to the Securities of that series that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform with respect to the Securities of such series such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of a series has occurred (that has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise with respect to Securities of that series such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.
Compensation of Trustees The Trustees as such shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from the Trust, and they may fix the amount of such compensation from time to time. Nothing herein shall in any way prevent the employment of any Trustee to provide advisory, management, legal, accounting, investment banking or other services to the Trust and to be specially compensated for such services by the Trust.
Non-Liability of Trustees and Shareholders Any obligation of Trust hereunder shall be binding only upon the assets of Trust (or the applicable Fund thereof) and shall not be binding upon any Trustee, officer, employee, agent or Shareholder of Trust. Neither the authorization of any action by the Trustees or Shareholders of Trust nor the execution of this Agreement on behalf of Trust shall impose any liability upon any Trustee or any Shareholder.
Role of Trustee The recitals contained herein shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental Indenture.
Vacancies; Appointment of Trustees Whenever a vacancy shall exist in the Board of Trustees, regardless of the reason for such vacancy, the remaining Trustees shall appoint any person as they determine in their sole discretion to fill that vacancy, consistent with the limitations under the 1940 Act. Such appointment shall be made by a written instrument signed by a majority of the Trustees or by a resolution of the Trustees, duly adopted and recorded in the records of the Trust, specifying the effective date of the appointment. The Trustees may appoint a new Trustee as provided above in anticipation of a vacancy expected to occur because of the retirement, resignation or removal of a Trustee, or an increase in number of Trustees, provided that such appointment shall become effective only at or after the expected vacancy occurs. As soon as any such Trustee has accepted his appointment in writing, the trust estate shall vest in the new Trustee, together with the continuing Trustees, without any further act or conveyance, and he shall be deemed a Trustee hereunder. The Trustees' power of appointment is subject to Section 16(a) of the 1940 Act. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled as provided in this Article II, the Trustees in office, regardless of their number, shall have all the powers granted to the Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Trustees by the Declaration. The death, declination to serve, resignation, retirement, removal or incapacity of one or more Trustees, or all of them, shall not operate to annul the Trust or to revoke any existing agency created pursuant to the terms of this Declaration of Trust.
