- would reasonably be expected to give rise to a liability of Citi under the $(b)$ Corporations Act or any other applicable law.
Indemnity 8.
- 8.1 The Seller agree to indemnify the Bank, its related bodies corporate, directors, officers and employees (each an "Indemnified Party" and collectively the "Indemnified Parties") from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs, charges, expenses (including legal expenses), taxes, claims, actions, demands or judgement (a "Loss") and pay the Indemnified Party an amount to the Loss in respect of:
- (breach) any breach the Seller or any of their respective agents or employees of $(a)$ any of their obligations under this agreement or any other obligations to the Indemnified Parties binding on it;
- $(b)$ (misrepresentation) any breach of any representation or warranty made or given by the Seller under clause 3 ("Representations and Warranties") in this agreement; and
- (law) any failure, or alleged failure, by it or its agents, employees or $(c)$ professional advisers (except the Bank) to comply with any law, regulation, order, judgment or agreement in any jurisdiction in relation to the sale of Sale Securities other than as a consequence of a breach by the Bank or its Affiliates of clause 4.4 or other clause of this agreement,
except insofar as such Loss is finally judicially determined to have resulted from the Indemnified Party's fraud, negligence or wilful misconduct.
Each of the paragraphs of this clause 8.1 ("Indemnity") will be construed independently and no paragraph will be limited by implications arising from any other paragraph.
8.2 Each Indemnified Party, whether or not a party to this agreement, will be entitled to the benefit of this clause 8 ("Indemnity") and this clause 8 ("Indemnity") is entered into and may be enforced on that Indemnified Party's behalf by the Bank.
- 8.3 Each of the indemnities in clause 8.1 ("Indemnity") is a continuing obligation, separate and independent from the other obligations of the parties under this agreement and survives termination or completion of this agreement.
- If any action shall be brought or asserted against a Indemnified Party in respect of 8.4 which payment under this clause 8 may be sought from the Seller, such Indemnified Party shall notify the Seller promptly after becoming aware thereof. Such Indemnified Party shall keep the Seller informed of the progress of such suit, action, proceeding claim or demand. The Indemnified Party shall also employ such legal advisers as may be agreed between the Indemnified Party and the Seller. The Seller shall not be liable for any settlement of any such proceeding effected without its written consent (provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with such consent (or without such consent in circumstances where such consent shall have been unreasonably withheld or delayed as aforesaid) or if, failing any settlement, there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Seller agrees to pay the Indemnified Party an amount equal to the Loss by reason of such settlement or judgment. The Seller will not settle any proceeding without the written consent of the Indemnified Party provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
General 9.
9.1 No fiduciary relationship
The parties agree that it is not the intention of the parties to create a fiduciary relationship between them. Without limiting the foregoing, the Seller acknowledges and agrees that:
- (a) it is contracting with the Bank on an arm's-length basis and as an independent contractor and not in any other capacity to provide the services set out in this agreement;
- (b) the Bank has not acted, is not acting and will not act in a fiduciary capacity with respect to, the Seller and neither a previous nor existing relationship between the Bank and the Seller will be deemed to create a fiduciary relationship;
- (c) the Bank has not assumed and is not assuming any duties or obligations other than those expressly set out in this agreement; and
- (d) the Seller understand that the Bank and its Affiliates (collectively, the "Group") are in the ordinary course globally engaged in a wide range of financial services and businesses (including investment management, financing, advisory services, securities trading, corporate banking and research). Members of the Group and businesses within the Group generally act independently of each other, both for their own account and for the account of clients. Accordingly, there may be situations where parts of the Group and/or their clients either now have or may in
the future have interests, or take actions, that may conflict with the Seller's interests. For example, the Group may, in the ordinary course of business, engage in trading in financial products or undertake other investments for their own account or on behalf of other clients, including, but not limited to, trading in or holding long, short or derivative positions in securities, loans or other financial products of the Company or the Seller.
In recognition of the foregoing, the Seller agrees that the Group is not required to restrict its activities as a result of this engagement, and that the Group may undertake any business activity without further consultation with or notification to the Seller. Neither this agreement nor the receipt by the Bank of confidential information nor any other matter shall give rise to any fiduciary, equitable or contractual duties (including without limitation any duty of trust or confidence) that would prevent or restrict the Group from acting on behalf of other customers or for its own account. Furthermore, the Seller agrees that neither the Group nor any member or business of the Group is under a duty to disclose to the Seller or use on behalf of the Seller any information whatsoever about or derived from those activities or to account for any revenue or profits obtained in connection with such activities.
- 9.2 This agreement is governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia and each party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.
- 9.3 This agreement may be executed in counterparts. All executed counterparts constitute one document.
- This is the entire agreement between the parties about the sale of the Sale Securities 9.4 and, to the extent possible, the parties exclude all terms implied by law.
- 9.5 No party may assign its rights or obligations under this agreement without the prior written consent of the other parties.
- 9.6 Each provision of this agreement is severable. If any provision is or becomes invalid or unenforceable or contravenes any applicable regulations or law, the remaining provisions will not be affected provided that the underlying transactions contemplated by this agreement are not materially affected.
- All notices, approvals, consents or other communications given or made in relation to 9.7 this agreement must be in writing, and if made to the Seller or any of their respective Affiliates is to be addressed as follows:
