Each time that (i) the Registration Statement or Prospectus shall be amended or supplemented (other than by (A) an amendment or supplement providing solely for the determination of the variable terms of the Notes and (B) an amendment deemed to have occurred as a result of a periodic filing by the Company, Global Funding or any Issuing Trust under the 1934 Act or the 1934 Act Regulations, except any quarterly report of the Company on Form 10-Q or any annual report of the Company on Form 10-K (any such report, an "SEC Periodic Report")), (ii) (if required in connection with the purchase of Notes from an Issuing Trust by one or more Agents as principal) an Issuing Trust sells Notes to one or more Agents as principal or (iii) an Issuing Trust sells Notes in a form not previously certified to the Agents by such Issuing Trust, the Company shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Agents, forthwith a certificate dated the date of filing with the Commission or the date of effectiveness of such amendment or supplement, as applicable, or the date of such sale, as the case may be, in form satisfactory to the Agents to the effect that the statements contained in the certificate referred to in Section 6(d) of the Distribution Agreement which were last furnished to the Agents are true and correct at the time of the filing or effectiveness of such amendment or supplement, as applicable, or the time of such sale, as the case may be, as though made at and as of such time (except that such statements shall be deemed to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to such time) or, in lieu of such certificate, a certificate of the same tenor as the certificate referred to in Section 6(d) of the Distribution Agreement, modified as necessary to relate to the Registration Statement and the Prospectus as amended and supplemented to the time of delivery of such certificate (it being understood that, in the case of clause (ii) above, any such certificate shall also include a certification that there has been no material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise since the date of the agreement by such Agent to purchase Notes from the relevant Issuing Trust as principal); provided, however, that any delivery of certificates as required by this Section 4(b) due to the filing of an SEC Periodic Report shall only be required to be delivered prior to the pricing date for Notes issued immediately after such SEC Periodic Report.

SECTION 5. Indemnification.
(a) Indemnification of the Agent. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Agent, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls such Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:
(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or arising out of an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, provided that (subject to Section 5(d) hereof) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and
(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by such Agent), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under subparagraph (i) or (ii) above;
provided, however, that this indemnity does not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of (i) an untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Agents concerning the Agents expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), (ii) any use of the Prospectus by the Agents to sell Notes or solicit offers for the purchase of Notes (x) after such time as the Company shall have provided written notice pursuant to Section 2(e) hereunder or Global Funding shall have provided written notice pursuant to Section 4(g) under the Distribution Agreement to the Agents to cease the sale of Notes and solicitation of offers for the purchase of Notes and (y) before such time as Global Funding and the Company shall have furnished the Agents with copies of such amendment or supplement to the Prospectus pursuant to Section 2(e) hereunder or Section 4(g) of the Distribution Agreement or (iii) a claim for indemnity made under the Distribution Agreement, only to the extent such claim has previously been satisfied by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Distribution Agreement.
(b) Indemnification of the Company. Each Agent agrees, severally but not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers and trustees (if applicable) who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 5(a) hereof, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Agent concerning such Agent expressly for use in the
11
Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).
(c) Actions Against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof or Section 9(a) of the Distribution Agreement, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the applicable Agent(s) and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof or Section 9(b) of the Distribution Agreement, counsel to the indemnified shall be selected by the Company and Global Funding. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties (collectively with any other indemnifying parties in connection with the Distribution Agreement), whether such indemnity is claimed hereunder or under the Distribution Agreement, be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.
No indemnifying party under this Agreement or the Distribution Agreement, shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties under this Agreement and the Distribution Agreement, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 5 or Section 6 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d) Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested in writing an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 5(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
SECTION 6. Contribution.
If the indemnification provided for in Section 5 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company, on one hand, and the applicable Agent(s), on the other hand, from the offering of the Notes that were the subject of the claim for indemnification or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company, on one hand, and the applicable
12
Agent(s), on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative benefits received by the Company, on the one hand, and the applicable Agent(s), on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Notes that were the subject of the claim for indemnification shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of such Notes (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total discount or commission received by the applicable Agent(s), as the case may be, bears to the aggregate initial offering price of such Notes.
The relative fault of the Company, on one hand, and the applicable Agent(s), on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on one hand, or by the applicable Agent(s), on the other hand, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.
The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Agents were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 6. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 6 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any applicable untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, (i) no Agent shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total discount or commission received by such Agent in connection with the offering of the Notes that were the subject of the claim for indemnification exceeds the amount of any damages which such Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any applicable untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and (ii) no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. In addition, in connection with an offering of Notes purchased from an Issuing Trust by two or more Agents as principal, the respective obligations of such Agents to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several, and not joint, in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of Notes that each such Agent has agreed to purchase from such Issuing Trust.
For purposes of this Section 6, each director, officer and person, if any, who controls an Agent within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Agent, and each director, officer and trustee (if applicable) of the Company, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.
SECTION 7. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.
All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, in certificates submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agents or any controlling person of the Agents, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive each delivery of and payment for the Notes.
13

(iii) With respect to the applicable Agent(s), at any time at the option of the Company, if any use of the Prospectus by the applicable Agent(s) to sell Notes or solicit offers for the purchase of Notes occurs (x) after such time as the Company shall have provided written notice pursuant to Section 2(e) hereunder or Global Funding shall have provided written notice pursuant to Section 4(g) of the Distribution Agreement to the applicable Agent(s) to cease the sale of Notes and solicitation of offers for the purchase of Notes and (y) before such time as the Company shall have furnished the applicable Agent(s) with copies of such amendment or supplement to the Prospectus pursuant to Section 2(e) hereunder or Section 4(g) of the Distribution Agreement (such termination shall be effective immediately upon exercise of such option); or
(iv) With respect to the applicable Agent(s), at any time at the option of the Company, if the applicable Agent(s) is added or deleted as a party to this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company (such termination shall be effective immediately upon exercise of such option).
(b) General. In the event of any such termination, neither party will have any liability to the other party hereto, except that (i) the applicable Agent(s) shall be entitled to any commissions earned in accordance with the Distribution Agreement, (ii) if at the time of termination (a) any applicable Agent shall own any Notes purchased by it from an Issuing Trust as principal or (b) an offer to purchase any of the Notes has been accepted by an Issuing Trust but the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent of such Notes relating thereto has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Sections 2 and 4 hereof shall remain in effect until such Notes are so resold or delivered, as the case may be, and (iii) the covenant set forth in Section 2(j) hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 5 and 6 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 7, 10 and 11 hereof shall remain in effect.
