Reliance by Rights Agent Clause Samples
The 'Reliance by Rights Agent' clause defines the extent to which the rights agent is permitted to rely on information, instructions, or documents provided by the parties involved in an agreement. Typically, this clause allows the rights agent to act in good faith based on written directions, certificates, or other communications received from authorized representatives, without the need for independent verification. Its core practical function is to protect the rights agent from liability when acting on information supplied by others, thereby facilitating efficient administration of rights or transactions while clarifying the agent's responsibilities and limits.
