If it becomes necessary for the Company to take any legal action to collect any sums payable by the Broker to the Company, the Broker agrees to pay all costs and disbursements of collection, plus reasonable attorneys’ fees and interest allowed by applicable provincial law and regulation in the collection process. If a Policy issued on an application submitted by the Broker lapses due to non-payment of a premium, no further compensation will be paid to the Broker unless the Policy is reinstated by the Broker, according to the rules of the Company with respect to reinstatement, and then only such compensation as would be paid, had the Policy not lapsed.
