In accordance therewith, the Trustee accepts the waiver to the Indenture effected hereby, but on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, including the terms and provisions defining and limiting the liabilities and responsibilities of the Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to any of the recitals or statements contained herein, all of which recitals or statements are made solely by the Authority, or for or with respect to (i) the validity or sufficiency of this Waiver or any of the terms or provisions hereof, (ii) the proper authorization hereof by the Authority or the Tribe by action or otherwise, (iii) the due execution hereof by the Authority and the Tribe, or (iv) the consequences of any waiver herein provided for, and the Trustee makes no representation with respect to any such matters.
