(a) A debt, liability, obligation, and expense incurred, contracted for, or otherwise
existing with respect to a series, whether in its name or as to the property of or
associated therewith, shall be enforceable a gainst the assets of or associated
with that series only, and shall not be enforceable against the assets of the
statutory trust generally or any assets of or associated with other series
thereof; and

for, or otherwise existing with respect to the statutory trust generally or any
other series thereof shall be enforceable against the assets of or associated
with a series.
