3.4 The Servicers shall, where their obligations hereunder have been sub-contracted in accordance with Clause 3.3 above, remain fully liable to the Purchaser and/or the Beneficiary to the same extent and under the same terms as if the Servicers themselves were servicing the Serviced Receivables and/or the rights of the Beneficiary under any Credit Insurance Contract.

For the avoidance of doubt, the obligations under this Clause 4.1 shall not be construed as a guarantee by the Servicers as to the receipt of Collections. Clause 3.3 (c) - (d) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement shall remain unaffected.

4.2 Without prejudice to Clause 4.3, the Servicers will (i) transfer to the Purchaser the Total Collections in accordance with Clause 11 (Payments) of the Receivables Purchase Agreement; and (b) on any Collections Testing Date, transfer to the Purchaser the excess of Collections as determined in accordance with Clause 12.3 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement.

The Servicers undertake to fund said accounts in due course with the amounts necessary for the required payment.

5.1 The Servicers undertake that they shall incur, for their own account, any costs, expenses and charges in connection with the collection and enforcement of any Serviced Receivable and/or the Purchaser’s and/or Beneficiary’s rights and remedies in relation thereto (and/or in relation to any Credit Insurance Contract) and it is agreed that, subject to Clause 5.2 below, the Servicers shall have no recourse or claim for indemnification or payment against the Purchaser and/or the Beneficiary in respect of such costs, expenses and charges.

5.2 The Servicing Fee (EUR), the Servicing Fee (CAD), the Servicing Fee (GBP) and the Servicing Fee (USD) will each amount to 25bps in relation to the relevant Global Portfolio.

The Servicing Fee will cover all the costs and expenses incurred by the Servicers as part of their duties.

If the competent tax authorities levy a new tax or increased tax on the Servicing Fee, the Originators and the Purchaser will negotiate with a view to reinstate the balance between the Parties’ reasonable interests and to make the transaction as cost efficient as possible.

5.3 In case the Servicers default under their obligations under this Agreement in relation to the Credit Insurance Contracts, the Servicers shall compensate the Beneficiary for any cost incurred by the Beneficiary for the exercise and enforcement of its rights and remedies under and in connection with the Credit Insurance Contracts and for the preservation of its rights under the Credit Insurance Contracts.

Unless as set out in and in accordance with the current account mechanics provided for in Clause 11 of the Receivables Purchase Agreement, the Servicers (in any capacity) unconditionally and irrevocably undertake to, and agree that they will not set-off or withhold any amount received against any amount due and payable to them by any of them and that if, the foregoing notwithstanding, they do in fact set-off or withhold any such amount, they will forthwith pay an amount equal to the amount set-off or withheld to the relevant Party.

9.2 Indemnity by the Servicers

Without limiting any other rights which the Transaction Administrator or the Purchaser may have hereunder or under applicable law, the Servicers hereby agree to indemnify the Transaction Administrator, the Purchaser and their successors and assigns, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and attorneys (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all reasonable damages, losses, claims, taxes, liabilities and related costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees (which attorneys may be employees of the Transaction Administrator or the Purchaser) and disbursements (all of the foregoing being collectively referred to as “Indemnified Amounts”) awarded against or incurred by any of them arising out of or resulting from any breach, non-performance or non-punctual performance of, or faults committed to, the role, functions, tasks and obligations of the Servicers under this Agreement.
