applicable law or as the Sponsor directs in order to obtain prior to such execution and delivery of any licenses, consents or approvals required by applicable law or otherwise. 
 4. The Trust is hereby authorized, and the Sponsor is hereby authorized and, if applicable, directed, as agent of the Trust, (i) to file with the

claim incurred by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) to advance expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Fiduciary Indemnified Person in
defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt by the Trust of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Fiduciary
Indemnified Persons to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such Fiduciary Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the preceding subsection.
