Accordingly, the Borrower hereby authorizes and directs State Street to, at the sole expense of the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to take such actions as agent for and on behalf of the Borrower as State Street believes are necessary or appropriate to cause the Borrower to satisfy its obligations to State Street under this Section 4 and to comply with the instructions of State Street pursuant to this Section 4, including, without limitation, purchasing any such rights, securities or other assets on the relevant securities markets, executing any required foreign exchange transactions and debiting the custody or other accounts of the Borrower at State Street to settle any of the foregoing securities or foreign exchange transactions or to satisfy its delivery or payment obligations to State Street hereunder.
