Section 5.04 Indemnification by Asset Representations Reviewer.
(a) To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Asset Representations Reviewer shall indemnify and hold harmless each of the Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Grantor Trust Trustee (including in its individual capacity), the Owner Trustee (including in its individual capacity), the Servicer, the Sponsor and the Indenture Trustee, and its respective officers, directors, successors, assigns, legal representatives, agents, and servants (each an “Indemnified Person”), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, taxes, claims, actions, investigations, proceedings, costs, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted at any time against an Indemnified Person (whether or not also indemnified against by any other person) which arose out of the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Asset Representations Reviewer in the performance of its obligations and duties under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Asset Representations Reviewer shall not be liable for or required to indemnify an Indemnified Person from and against expenses arising or resulting from (i) the Indemnified Person’s own willful misconduct, bad faith or negligence (or, in the case of the Owner Trustee and the Grantor Trust Trustee, gross negligence (except for errors in judgment)), or (ii) the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Indemnified Person.
(b) In case any such action, investigation or proceeding will be brought involving an Indemnified Person as contemplated by Section 5.04(a), the Asset Representations Reviewer will assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel and the payment of all expenses. The Issuer, the Grantor Trust, the Servicer, the Sponsor and the Indenture Trustee each will have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action, investigation or proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof and the reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel will be paid by the Asset Representations Reviewer. In the event of any claim, action, or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section 5.04, the Issuer’s, the Grantor Trust’s, the Servicer’s, the Sponsor’s and the Indenture Trustee’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the good faith objection by the Asset Representations Reviewer to a conflict of interest under the applicable rules of professional conduct.
(c) The indemnification set forth in this Section 5.04 will survive the termination or assignment of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Asset Representations Reviewer or any Indemnified Person.
