The indemnification and agreement set forth in this Section 5(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

 

 

(b)

Limitation on Damages. No claim may be made by the Issuer against the Custodian or the Trustee or any officer, agent, stockholder, partner, member, director or employee of either of them for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including lost profits) in respect of any claim for breach of contract or any other theory of liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and the Issuer hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any claim for any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

 

(c)

Expenses and Fees. To the extent that funds are available therefor in accordance with the Indenture and subject to Section 9(i) hereof, the Issuer shall be responsible for, and hereby agrees to pay, all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Custodian and the Trustee in connection with the establishment and maintenance of the Accounts, including the Custodian's customary fees and expenses, any costs or expenses incurred by the Custodian as a result of conflicting claims or notices involving the parties hereto, including the fees and expenses of its internal and external legal counsel, and all other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the execution, administration or enforcement of this Agreement including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs, whether or not such enforcement includes the filing of a lawsuit.
