as soon as reasonably practicable, give written notice of the circumstances to the Company, as well as any other information which the Company may reasonably request from time to time;

take all reasonable action to mitigate any Liability suffered by the Indemnitee in respect of the circumstances giving rise to the Claim;

4.2

Notwithstanding the provisions of clause 4.1, the Indemnitee shall not be required to provide any documents or information to the Company where doing so would result in a loss of privilege in such documents or information or where the Indemnitee is legally or contractually prevented from providing such documents or information.

4.3

The Company or any of its Subsidiaries (as the case may be) will be entitled to take over, negotiate and conduct in the Indemnitee’s name the defence or settlement of any Claim or to prosecute in the Indemnitee’s name for its own benefit any proceedings relating to an Indemnification Event.

consult with the Indemnitee in relation to the conduct of the Claim or proceedings on aspects of the Claim or proceedings materially relevant to the Indemnitee and keep the Indemnitee reasonably informed of material developments in the Claim or proceedings, provided that the Company or its Subsidiary shall be under no obligation to provide any information the provision of which is reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s or its Subsidiary’s ability to claim in respect of the relevant loss under any applicable policy of insurance;

Payments
