interpreted and applied in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware). It is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto that the General Partner will act, directly or indirectly, at the direction of Super HoldCo, and that the General Partner will owe fiduciary duties to Super HoldCo. The General Partner will use commercially reasonable and appropriate efforts and means, as determined in good faith by the General Partner, to minimize any conflict of interest between the Limited Partners, on the one hand, and the stockholders of Super HoldCo, on the other hand.
(b) In performing its duties under this Agreement and the Act, each of the General Partner and the Management Representative shall be entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement and on any information, opinion, report or statement, including any financial statement or other financial data or the records or books of account of the Partnership or any subsidiary of the Partnership, prepared or presented by an officer, employee or agent of Super HoldCo, the General Partner or the Partnership or any such subsidiary, or by a lawyer, certified public accountant, appraiser or other person engaged by Super HoldCo, the General Partner or the Partnership as to any matter within such person’s professional or expert competence, and any act taken or omitted to be taken in reliance upon any such information, opinion, report or statement as to matters that the General Partner or the Management Representative, as applicable, reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion. Each of the General Partner and the Management Representative shall be entitled to engage (at the expense of the Partnership) and rely on the advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants and other experts, including financial advisors, and any act of or failure to act by the General Partner or the Management Representative, as applicable, in reliance on such advice shall not subject the General Partner or the Management Representative, as applicable, to liability to the Partnership or any Partner. Each of the General Partner and the Management Representative may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, debenture or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Management Representative shall not have any personal liability whatsoever, to the Partnership or to the other Partners, for any action or omission taken in its capacity as the Management Representative or, to the fullest extent permitted by the Act, for the debts or liabilities of the Partnership or the Partnership’s obligations hereunder, except in the case of any action or omission determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator selected and acting in accordance with this Agreement to constitute willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence. Without limitation of the foregoing, and except pursuant to any such express indemnity, no property or assets of the Management Representative shall be subject to levy, execution or other enforcement procedures for the satisfaction of any judgment (or other judicial process) in favor of any other Partner(s) and arising out of, or in connection with, this Agreement.
(d) No manager, member, director, officer, employee, agent or representative of the General Partner, no officer of the Partnership and no Management Representative shall be liable to the Partnership or any Partner for money damages by reason of their service as such; provided, however, that any such manager, member, director, officer, employee, agent or representative or the Management Representative shall not be exculpated from liability under this sentence for any action or omission determined by a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator selected and acting in accordance with this Agreement to constitute willful misconduct, fraud or gross negligence.
(e) Any amendment, modification or repeal of this Section 6.5 or any provision hereof (by merger, consolidation, repeal or otherwise) shall be prospective only and shall not in any way affect the limitations on the liability of the General Partner, or the managers, members, directors, officers or agents of the General Partner, or officers of the Partnership, or the Management Representative to the Partnership and the Partners under this Section 6.5, as in effect immediately prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, with respect to claims arising from or relating to matters occurring, in whole or in part, prior to such amendment, modification or repeal, regardless of when such claims may arise or be asserted.
