Broker shall assume any legal responsibilities of Company for the acts, commissions or defalcations of such representatives insofar as they relate to the sale of the Contracts. Applications for Contracts solicited by such Broker through its agents or representatives shall be transmitted directly to the Company, and if received by Distributor, shall be forwarded to Company.
