5. Limitations of Liability. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to:

7. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as follows:
(a) If the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to locate a successor trustee.
