Inter alia, in the event of a breach of the term specified in the subsection 3.3.6. of Annex N1 to the Bank Guarantee Agreement, Bank is entitled to charge the Customer with additional amount of the respective Interest (as the damage (loss) inflicted) for the period of breach of the term or the Bank shall be entitled to repay the above obligations not later than 14 (fourteen) calendar days after the written application.

The notice shall be deemed to have been accepted by the addressee on the day of its receipt if the receipt of the notice is confirmed by the addressee (including by electronic document, receipt, other appropriate means of notification, etc.). If the receipt of the notice is not confirmed by the addressee, any such notice shall be deemed to have been sent and received accordingly: In case of sending a written message by a courier or registered mail - on the day of confirmation of delivery; In case of sending by email and/or other electronic means - on the second Banking Day after the date of sending; Notice shall be deemed to have been received even if the notice is returned to the notifying Party due to the absence of the addressee of the notification on the sent address/contact data, the addressee refuses to receive the notice or avoids receiving it.

If the Fund requires the Custodian to take any action with respect to securities, which action involves the payment of money or which action may, in the opinion of the Custodian, result in the Custodian or its nominee assigned to the Fund being liable for the payment of money or incurring liability of some other form, the Fund, as a prerequisite to requiring the Custodian to take such action, shall provide indemnity to the Custodian in an amount and form satisfactory to it. If the Fund requires the Custodian, its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents, to advance cash or securities for any purpose (including but not limited to securities settlements, foreign exchange contracts and assumed settlement) or in the event that the Custodian or its nominee shall incur or be assessed any taxes, charges, expenses, assessments, claims or liabilities in connection with the performance of this Contract, except such as may arise from its or its nominee’s own negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, any property at any time held for the account of the applicable Fund shall be security therefor and should the Fund fail to repay the Custodian promptly, the Custodian shall be entitled to utilize available cash and to dispose of such Fund’s assets to the extent necessary to obtain reimbursement.
