Status of the Grantee Sample Clauses

The "Status of the Grantee" clause defines the legal and operational relationship between the grantee and the grantor, typically clarifying that the grantee acts as an independent entity rather than as an agent, employee, or partner of the grantor. In practice, this clause may specify that the grantee is solely responsible for its own staff, taxes, and liabilities, and that the grantor is not liable for actions taken by the grantee. Its core function is to prevent misunderstandings or legal claims regarding employment status or agency, thereby allocating risk and ensuring both parties understand their respective roles and responsibilities.

Consultant agrees that it shall be Consultant’s exclusive responsibility to pay all federal, state, or local payroll, social security, disability, industrial insurance, self-employment insurance, income and other taxes and assessments related to this Agreement. Neither FICA (Social Security), FUTA (Federal Employment), nor local, state or federal income taxes will be withheld from payments to Consultant.

  • Status of Participant (a) The Participant hereby represents, covenants, and warrants that it is a participant in the DTC and that, with respect to Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders of Creation Units of ETF Shares of any Fund placed through the NSCC Clearing Process, it is a member of the NSCC and a participant in the CNS System of NSCC. With respect to Vanguard’s stock ETFs, Purchase Orders and Redemption Orders for Creation Units will settle either through the NSCC Clearing Process or Outside the NSCC Clearing Process. With respect to Vanguard’s bond ETFs, Purchase Orders and Redemption Orders will settle through the DTC and the Federal Reserve’s Fedwire System. If a Participant loses its status as a DTC Authorized Participant Agreement participant or NSCC member, or its eligibility to participate in the CNS System, it shall promptly notify the Distributor in writing of the change in status or eligibility, and the Distributor may terminate this Agreement. (b) The Participant hereby represents and warrants that, unless Section 5(c) is applicable, it is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is qualified to act as a broker or dealer in the states or other jurisdictions where it transacts business, and is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (”FINRA”). The Participant agrees that it will maintain such registrations, qualifications, and membership in good standing and in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement. The Participant agrees to comply with all applicable federal laws, the laws of the states or other jurisdictions concerned, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and with the Constitution, By-Laws and Rules of FINRA, and that it will not offer or sell ETF Shares of any Fund in any state or jurisdiction where such shares may not lawfully be offered and/or sold. (c) If the Participant is offering and selling ETF Shares of any Fund in jurisdictions outside the several states, territories and possessions of the United States and is not otherwise required to be registered or qualified as a broker or dealer, or to be a member of FINRA, the Participant nevertheless agrees to observe the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which such offer and/or sale is made, to comply with the full disclosure requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the “1933 Act”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and to conduct its business in accordance with the spirit of the FINRA Rules. (d) The Participant understands and acknowledges that the proposed method by which Creation Units of Vanguard ETF Shares will be created and traded may raise certain issues under applicable securities laws. For example, because new Creation Units of ETF Shares may be issued and sold by the Fund on an ongoing basis, at any point a “distribution,” as such term is used in the 1933 Act, may occur. The Participant understands and acknowledges that some activities on its part, depending on the circumstances, may result in its being deemed a participant in the distribution in a manner that could render it a statutory underwriter and subject it to the prospectus delivery and liability provisions of the 1933 Act. (A ▇▇▇▇▇▇ discussion of these risks appears in the SAI.) Whether a person is an underwriter depends upon all of the facts and circumstances pertaining to that person’s activities, and the Participant should consult legal counsel if the Participant is uncertain of its status. Neither the Distributor nor the Bank will indemnify the Participant for any violations of the federal securities laws committed by the Participant.

  • Status of the Company The Members acknowledge that this Agreement creates a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Furthermore, the Members hereby agree not to elect to be excluded from the application of Subchapter K of Chapter 1 of Subtitle A of the Code or any similar state statute.
