b.Information
Whenever the Issuer or the Guarantor publishes or makes available to its shareholders (or any class of them) or to its creditors generally (or any class of them) or to the public (by filing with any regulatory authority, securities exchange or otherwise) any information which could reasonably be expected to be material in the context of the Programme Agreements and the Notes and the transactions contemplated by the Programme Agreements and the Notes, the Issuer or the Guarantor shall:
44.make a reasonable number of copies of such information available to each Dealer upon request and permit distribution of that information to actual or potential purchasers of Notes, if applicable; and
45.take such action as may be necessary to ensure that the representation and warranty contained in clause 3.7 (Disclosure Documents) is true and accurate on the dates when it is made or deemed to be repeated.
c.Authorisation information
Whenever the Issuer or the Guarantor is required to obtain or effect any authorisation in order to comply with the representation and warranty contained in clause 3.4 (Authorisations), the Issuer or the Guarantor shall:
46.notify each Dealer as to the nature of such authorisation; and
47.upon request by a Dealer, make a reasonable number of copies of such authorisation (which may be in a form of certified extracts of minutes) available to that Dealer.
d.Indemnification
48.Without prejudice to the other rights or remedies of the Dealers, each of the Issuer and the Guarantor undertakes to each Dealer that if that Dealer or any of its
Relevant Parties incurs any liability, damages, cost, loss or expense (including, without limitation, legal fees, costs and expenses) (a "Loss") arising out of or in connection with or based on:
x.the Issuer's failure to make due payment under the Notes or the Deed of Covenant; or
xi.any Notes not being issued for any reason (other than as a result of the failure of any Dealer to pay for such Notes) after an agreement for that Note Transaction has been made; or
xii.the Guarantor’s failure to make due payment under the Guarantee; or
xiii.any breach or alleged breach of the representations, warranties, covenants or agreements made or deemed to be repeated by the Issuer or the Guarantor in this Agreement or any other Programme Agreement to which it is a party unless, in the case of an alleged breach only, the allegation is being made by the relevant Dealer or its Relevant Party; or
xiv.any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Disclosure Documents or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading in any material respect unless, in the case of an alleged untrue statement or omission, the allegation is being made by the relevant Dealer or its Relevant Party,
the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor shall pay to that Dealer on demand an amount equal to such Loss on an after tax basis. No Dealer shall have any duty or obligation, whether as fiduciary or trustee for any Relevant Party or otherwise, to recover any such payment or to account to any other person for any amounts paid to it under this paragraph (a).
49.In case any allegation as described in paragraphs 5.4(a)(iv) or 5.4(a)(v) above is made or any action is brought against any Dealer or its Relevant Party in respect of which recovery may be sought from the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as the case may be, under this clause 5.4, the relevant Dealer shall promptly notify the Issuer and/or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in writing but failure to do so will not relieve the Issuer or the Guarantor from any liability under this Agreement. If any such allegation is made, the parties agree to consult in good faith with respect to the nature of the allegation. Subject to paragraph (c) below, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor may participate at its own expense in the defence of any action.
50.If it so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of the notice referred to in paragraph (b) above, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor may, subject as provided below, assume the defence of the action with legal advisers chosen by it and approved by the relevant Dealer (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding any such election a Dealer or its Relevant Party may employ separate legal advisers reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Guarantor and the Issuer or the Guarantor shall not be entitled to assume such defence and shall bear the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate legal advisers if:
xv.the use of the legal advisers chosen by the Issuer or the Guarantor to represent the relevant Dealer or Relevant Party would present such legal advisers with a conflict of interest;
xvi.the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the Dealer or its Relevant Party and the Issuer or the Guarantor and the Dealer concludes that there may be legal defences available to it and/or
other Relevant Parties which are different from or additional to those available to the Issuer or the Guarantor; or
xvii.the Issuer or the Guarantor has not employed legal advisers reasonably satisfactory to the Dealer to represent the relevant Dealer or its Relevant Party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action.
51.If the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor assumes the defence of the action, the Issuer or, as the case may be, the Guarantor shall not be liable for any fees and expenses of legal advisers of the relevant Dealer or its Relevant Party incurred thereafter in connection with the action, except as stated in paragraph (c) above.
52.Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall be liable in respect of any settlement of any action effected without its written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Neither the Issuer nor the Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of the relevant Dealer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim or action in respect of which recovery may be sought (whether or not the Dealer or its Relevant Party is an actual or potential party to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Dealer and its Relevant Party from all liability arising out of such claim or action and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of a Dealer or its Relevant Party.
e.Costs and expenses
The Issuer, failing which the Guarantor, will:
53.pay, or reimburse the Arranger for, all reasonable costs and expenses (including value added tax and any other taxes or duties and fees and disbursements of counsel to the Arranger) incurred by the Arranger in connection with the preparation, negotiation, printing, execution and delivery of the Programme Agreements and the Notes and all documents contemplated by the Programme Agreements and the Notes;
