(5)

In order to assume the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party must give the Indemnified Person written notice of its election within 15 days of Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of the Third Party Claim and shall comply with the procedures set out in Schedule 10.6(5).

Section 12.2 Time of the Essence

 

Time is of the essence in this Agreement.

 

Section 12.3 Announcements

 

Subject to Section 11.3, no press release, public statement or announcement or other public disclosure with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated in this Agreement may be made prior to the Initial Closing except with the prior written consent and joint approval of both the Corporation and the Investor, or if required by Law or a Governmental Entity. Where such disclosure is required by Law or a Governmental Entity, the Party required to make such disclosure will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the approval of the other Party as to its form, nature and extent of the disclosure. After the Closing, any disclosure by the Vendors or the Corporation may be made only with the prior written consent and approval of the Investor unless such disclosure is required by Law or a Governmental Entity, in which case the Vendors or the Corporation, as the case may be, shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the approval of the Investor as to the form, nature and extent of the disclosure.

 

Section 12.4 Power of Attorney

 

(1)

Each Vendor authorizes the Corporation to act as the Vendor’s representative at the Initial Closing and the Put/Call Closing, and constitutes and appoints the Corporation as the true and lawful attorney of such Vendor, with full power of substitution, to act for and in the name of the Vendor at the Closing and the Put/Call Closing to:

  

 

(a)

sign and deliver all closing receipts and documents required;

 

 

 

 

(b)

complete or correct any errors or omissions in any form or document provided by the Vendor;

 

 

 

 

(c)

approve or accept any opinion, certificate or other document addressed or delivered to the Vendor; and

 

 

 

 

(d)

give directions, or and on behalf of the Vendor, with respect to the payment of any cash amounts and the registration and delivery of any Mogo Shares to which the Vendor is entitled.

  

(2)

The power of attorney granted under this Section 3.7 (the “Power of Attorney”) is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest, and has been given for valuable consideration (the receipt and adequacy of which are acknowledged). Any person dealing with the Corporation may conclusively presume that any document or instrument executed by the Corporation under the Power of Attorney is authorized and binding on the Purchaser, without further inquiry. The Purchaser agrees to be bound by any representations made or actions taken by the Corporation under the Power of Attorney, and waives all defences that may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm any action taken in good faith under the Power of Attorney.

  

 
- 54 -

 

 

(3)

Each Vendor agrees not to assert any claim or commence any suit against the Corporation with respect to any action or inaction taken or failed to be taken by the Corporation in connection with its service as the representative of the Vendor, absent fraud or willful misconduct.

  

Section 12.5 Third Party Beneficiaries

 

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, including Section 10.2 and Section 10.3, (i) the Parties intend that this Agreement will not benefit or create any right or cause of action in favour of any Person, other than the Parties and (ii) no Person, other than the Parties, is entitled to rely on the provisions of this Agreement in any action, suit, proceeding, hearing or other forum. The Corporation and the Vendors acknowledge to each Indemnified Person in respect of the Investor his/her direct rights against it under Article 10 of this Agreement and the Investor acknowledges to each Indemnified Person in respect of the Corporation and the Vendors his/her/its direct rights against it under Article 10 of this Agreement. To the extent required by law to give full effect to these direct rights, the Parties agree and acknowledge that they are acting as agent of their respective Indemnified Persons. The Parties reserve their right to vary or rescind the rights at any time and in any way whatsoever, if any, granted by or under this Agreement to any Person who is not a Party, without notice to or consent of that Person, including any Indemnified Person.

 

Section 12.6 Expenses

 

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, each Party will pay for its own costs and expenses (including the fees and expenses of legal counsel, accountants and other advisors) incurred in connection with this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreements and the Transactions contemplated by them.

 

Section 12.7 Amendments

 

This Agreement may only be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified by written agreement signed by the Vendors, the Corporation and the Investor.

 

Section 12.8 Waiver

 

No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provision (whether or not similar). No waiver will be binding unless executed in writing by the Party to be bound by the waiver. A Party’s acceptance of any certificate delivered on Closing or failure or delay in exercising any right under this Agreement will not operate as a waiver of that. A single or partial exercise of any right will not preclude a Party from any other or further exercise of that right or the exercise of any other right.

 

Section 12.9 Entire Agreement

 

This Agreement, the Disclosure Letter together with the Ancillary Agreements, (i) constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties; (ii) supersedes all prior agreements or discussions of the Parties; and (iii) sets forth the complete and exclusive agreement between the Parties, in all cases, with respect to the subject matter herein.

 

 
- 55 -

 

 

Section 12.10 Further Assurances

 

From time to time after the Initial Closing Date, each Party shall, at the request of any other Party, execute and deliver such additional conveyances, transfers and other assurances as may be reasonably required to effectively carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and to effectively carry out the intent of this Agreement and any Ancillary Agreement.

 

Section 12.11 Successors and Assigns

 

(1)

Upon execution of the Agreement by the Parties, it will be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the Corporation, the Vendors, the Investor and their respective heirs, administrators, executors, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

 

 

(2)

Except as provided in this Section 12.11, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties. Upon giving notice to the Corporation and the Vendors, the Investor may assign this Agreement or any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to:

  

 

(a)

any of its affiliates, provided that such affiliate and the Investor shall be jointly and severally liable with respect to all of the obligations of the Investor, including the representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements of the Investor;

 

 

 

 

(b)

a lender or lenders as continuing collateral security for obligations owed to it or them; or

 

 

 

 

(c)

to any Person that acquires all or substantially all of the assets of the Investor.

  

Section 12.12 Severability

 

If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or any court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be severed from this Agreement and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

 

Section 12.13 Governing Law

 

(1)

This Agreement is governed by and will be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein.

 

 

(2)

Except in connection with any Third Party Claim brought against an Indemnified Person, each Party irrevocably attorns and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the British Columbia courts situated in the City of Vancouver (and appellate courts therefrom) and waives objection to the venue of any proceeding in such court or that such court provides an inappropriate forum.

  

Section 12.14 Counterparts

 

This Agreement may be executed (including by electronic means) in any number of counterparts, each of which (including any electronic transmission of an executed signature page), is deemed to be an original, and such counterparts together constitute one and the same Agreement.

common shares in the capital of the Holder (the “Mogo Shares”), at a deemed issue price per Mogo Share equal to the greater of: (a) the volume weighted average price of the Mogo Shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) during the 30-day period ended on the last trading day prior to the date of the Subscription Form (as defined herein) (the “30-day VWAP”); and (b) the minimum issue price permitted by the TSX;

 

 

 

 

provided that no less than 50% of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Warrants exercised pursuant to a Warrant Exercise shall be paid in cash.

5.2

If the Holder elects to deliver Mogo Shares in satisfaction of any portion of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Common Shares issuable upon a Warrant Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed to represent and warrant to the Corporation on the date of issuance of the Mogo Shares with respect to such Warrant Exercise, that:

5.2.2

the execution and delivery of the Subscription Form and delivery of the Mogo Shares to the Corporation: (a) do not and will not (or would not with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening of any other event or condition) constitute or result in a violation or breach of, or conflict with, or allow any other person to exercise any rights under, any of the terms or provisions of its constating documents; (b) do not and will not (or would not with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening or any other event or condition) constitute or result in a breach or violation of, or conflict with or allow any other person to exercise any rights under, any of the terms or provisions of any contracts or instruments to which it is a party; and (c) do not and will not result in the violation of any laws, statutes, regulations, or standards, policies, guidelines, notices and protocols of any governmental entity (including any stock exchange, or quasi-governmental or private body exercising any regulatory, expropriation or taxing authority);

 

 

 

 

5.2.3

such Mogo Shares have been validly issued and are outstanding as fully paid and non-assessable shares in the capital of the Holder;

 

 

 

 

5.2.4

the Holder is a reporting issuer not in default under the securities laws of each Province and Territory of Canada, and is in compliance in all material respects with its disclosure obligations under applicable securities laws; and

6.1.3

if applicable, a certificate or DRS advice representing Mogo Shares issued in satisfaction of any portion of the aggregate Exercise Price for the Common Shares being purchased, delivered no later than three (3) Business Days after the delivery of the Subscription Form (failing which the Holder may not exercise this Warrant unless it delivers to the Corporation a new Subscription Form).

 

 

 

 

The deliveries made by the Holder under this Section 6.1 will be deemed to be made only upon actual receipt by the Corporation.

   

 

6.2

Issuance: The Common Shares subscribed for under the Subscription Form will be issued in the name of the Holder (or as otherwise directed by the Holder) as fully paid and non-assessable shares in the capital of the Corporation effective as of a date that is no later than two (2) Business Days after the date of receipt by the Corporation of the deliveries made by the Holder under Section 6.1 (the “Issuance Date”). The Corporation will cause a certificate for the Common Shares to be issued under this Section 6.2 to be mailed to the Holder (or otherwise mailed or delivered as directed by the Holder in the Subscription Form) within three (3) Business Days of the Issuance Date.

 

 

 

 

6.3

Compliance with Laws: Any exercise of Warrants will be subject to compliance, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Corporation, and with all applicable laws and any applicable stock exchange requirements.

 

7.

Legends: 

   

 

7.1

Legends: Subject to Section 7.2, any certificate representing the Common Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants, and any certificate issued in exchange for or in substitution of this Warrant Certificate, will bear the following legend:

 

 

 

 

“Unless permitted under securities legislation, the holder of this security must not trade the security before the date that is 4 months and a day after the later of (i) [insert the distribution date], and (ii) the date the issuer became a reporting issuer in any province or territory.”

 

 

 

 

and any other legend required by the unanimous shareholder agreement of the Corporation.

 

 

 

 

7.2

Removal of Legends: If, at any time, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, the legend specified in Section 7.1 is no longer necessary or advisable, or the holder of a legended certificate provides the Corporation with evidence satisfactory in form and substance to the Corporation (which may include an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Corporation) to the effect that the legend is not required, a legended certificate may be surrendered to the Corporation in exchange for a certificate which does not bear the legend specified in Section 7.1.

  

8.

Partial Exercise: The Holder may exercise a number of Warrants less than the total number of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate. If there is a partial exercise of this Warrant Certificate, the Holder will be entitled to receive, without charge, a new warrant certificate evidencing the balance of the Warrants which have not yet been exercised.

 

 

9.

No Fractional Shares: Despite any adjustment provided for in Section 13, no fractional Common Shares will be issued on any exercise of Warrants, and the number of Common Shares issuable on the exercise of Warrants will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. The Holder will not be entitled to any cash or other consideration in lieu of any fraction of a Common Share.

 

 

 

    

Warrant Certificate

Page 5 of 10

   

10.

Transfer of Warrants: The Warrants are not transferable by the Holder.

 

 

11.

U.S. Laws:

   

 

11.1

No Registration: The Warrants and the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “United States Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any state of the United States, and the Corporation has no obligation or present intention of filing a registration statement under the United States Securities Act in respect of any of the Warrants or the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants.

 

 

 

 

11.2

Restrictions on Exercise: The Warrants may only be exercised by a Holder who, at the time of exercise, either:

  

 

11.2.1

provides written certification that (i) the Holder is outside the United States and (ii) the Holder is not a U.S. Person (as defined in Regulation S under the United States Securities Act, a “U.S. Person”), and the Holder is not exercising any of the Warrants on behalf of, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. Person; or

 

 

 

 

11.2.2

provides a written opinion of U.S. counsel, in a form acceptable to the Corporation acting reasonably, that the Common Shares issuable on exercise of the Warrants are exempt from registration requirements under the United States Securities Act and the securities laws of all applicable states of the United States.

  

12.

Not a Shareholder: The holding of a Warrant will not constitute the Holder a shareholder of the Corporation or entitle the Holder to any right or interest as a shareholder of the Corporation, except as expressly provided in this Warrant Certificate.

 

 

13.

Adjustments: The Exercise Price (and the number of Common Shares purchasable upon the exercise) shall be subject to adjustment from time to time during the period starting on the date of this Warrant Certificate and ending at the Expiry Time (the “Adjustment Period”) in the events and in the manner provided as follows:

  

 

13.1

Special Distribution: If, during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation fixes a record date for the distribution to the holders of all or substantially all of the Common Shares of:

  

 

13.1.1

shares of any class, whether of the Corporation or any other corporation;

 

 

 

 

13.1.2

rights, options or warrants;

 

 

 

 

13.1.3

evidences of indebtedness; or

 

 

 

 

13.1.4

other assets or property,

 

 

 

 

(a “Special Distribution”), then the Holder will, after the effective date of the Special Distribution and upon exercise of the Warrants, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number of Common Shares to which the Holder was entitled upon exercise of the Warrants before the Special Distribution, the kind and amount of securities or other assets or property (including cash) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Special Distribution if, on the effective date of the Special Distribution, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares into which the Warrants were exercisable immediately before the Special Distribution.

  

 

 

  

Warrant Certificate

Page 6 of 10

    

 

13.2

Capital Reorganization: If and whenever during the Adjustment Period

  

 

13.2.1

the Common Shares are reclassified or changed into other shares or there is any other reorganization involving the Common Shares;

 

 

 

 

13.2.2

the Corporation is a party to any consolidation, amalgamation, merger or arrangement with any other person; or

 

 

 

 

13.2.3

all or substantially all of the undertakings or assets of the Corporation are transferred to another person;

 

 

 

 

(each event, a “Capital Reorganization”), then the Holder will, after the effective date of the Capital Reorganization and upon exercise of the Warrants, be entitled to receive, and will accept, in lieu of the number of Common Shares to which the Holder was entitled upon exercise of the Warrants before the Capital Reorganization, the kind and amount of securities or other assets or property (including cash) which the Holder would have been entitled to receive as a result of the Capital Reorganization if, on the effective date of the Capital Reorganization, the Holder had been the registered holder of the number of Common Shares into which the Warrants were exercisable immediately before the Capital Reorganization.

   

 

13.3

Other Adjustments. If, during the Adjustment Period, the Corporation takes any action affecting the Common Shares, other than an action or event requiring an adjustment under Sections 13.1 or 13.2, which the board of directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) determines would have a material effect on the rights of the Holder under this Warrant Certificate, then the terms of the Warrants will be adjusted in any manner and at any time as the Board (in its sole discretion, acting reasonably) determines is equitable in the circumstances. If the Board fails to provide for an adjustment under this Section 13.3 before the effective date of the action affecting the Common Shares, that failure will be deemed to be conclusive evidence that the Board has determined that it is equitable to make no adjustment in the circumstances.

 

 

 

 

13.4

Rules:

  

 

13.4.1

The adjustments provided for in Section 13 are cumulative, and shall, in the case of adjustments to the Exercise Price be computed to the nearest one tenth of one cent and shall be made successively whenever an event referred to therein shall occur, subject to the following paragraphs of this Section 13.

 

 

 

 

13.4.2

For greater certainty, no adjustment in the Exercise Price shall be made pursuant to Section 13 in respect of the issue of Common Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants represented by this Warrant Certificate, or securities of the Corporation pursuant to any share option, share option plan, share purchase plan or other benefit plan for the benefit of directors, officers, employees, advisers or consultants of the Corporation from time to time (including, for greater certainty, upon exercise of any securities issued or granted under such plans), and any such issue shall be deemed not to be a Capital Reorganization.

 

 

 

 

13.4.3

If the Corporation fixes a record date which (if it were not for this Section 13.4.3) would trigger an adjustment under this Section 13, and the event in respect of which that record date is set is abandoned (or that record date is changed), then no adjustment under this Section 13 will be required by reason of the setting of that (original) record date. If a calculation is made under this Section 13 based on the assumed conversion or exchange of securities convertible into Common Shares or on the assumed exercise of rights, options or warrants, and any portion of the securities convertible into Common Shares are not actually converted or exchanged or any portion of the rights, options or warrants are not actually exercised within the time permitted, the calculation will be adjusted once the number of Common Shares actually issued on the conversion or exchange of the securities convertible into Common Shares and on the exercise of the rights, options and warrants is known.

 

 

 

  

Warrant Certificate

Page 7 of 10

    

 

13.4.4

If the Corporation does not fix a record date for a Special Distribution by way of a resolution of the directors, the Corporation will be deemed to have fixed a record date on the record date determined under corporate law.

 

 

 

 

13.4.5

No adjustments under this Section 13 will be made to the extent that the Holder is entitled to participate in the relevant event on the same terms mutatis mutandis as if the Holder had exercised the Warrants before the relevant date.

 

 

 

 

13.4.6

If any dispute arises with respect to the calculation of an adjustment under this Section 13, the dispute will be conclusively determined by the auditors of the Corporation or, if they are unable or unwilling to act, by another firm of independent chartered accountants selected by the Board. The Corporation will provide to the auditors or accountants access to all necessary records of the Corporation to make a determination under this Section 13.4.6 and that determination will be binding on the Corporation and the Holder.

  

 

13.5

Condition Precedent: As a condition precedent to the taking of any action which would require an adjustment under this Section 13, the Corporation will take any corporate action which may, in the opinion of counsel to the Corporation, be necessary to ensure that the Corporation may validly and legally issue the securities, or may validly and legally distribute the property, of the Corporation which the Holder is entitled to receive on the full exercise of the Warrants.

 

 

 

 

13.6

Notice: At least ten (10) Business Days before the effective date or record date, as applicable, of any event which requires or may require an adjustment to be made under this Section 13, the Corporation will give notice to the Holder of the relevant particulars of that event and, if determinable, the required adjustment and the calculation of that adjustment. If the final adjustment is not determinable at the time that the initial notice is given under this Section 13.6, then the Corporation will give notice to the Holder of the required adjustment and the calculation of that adjustment as soon as the final adjustment is determinable.

 

 

 

 

13.7

Interpretation: As of the original date of this Warrant Certificate, “Common Share” means a common share in the capital of the Corporation as constituted on the original date of this Warrant Certificate. If the common shares are subsequently reorganized, reclassified, substituted or otherwise changed, the term “Common Share” will then be interpreted to reflect that change.

14.

Covenants: So long as any Warrants remain outstanding, the Corporation will reserve and there will remain unissued out of its authorized capital a sufficient number of Common Shares to satisfy the purchase rights of the Holder under this Warrant Certificate.

 

 

15.

Representations and Warranties: The Corporation represents and warrants to the Holder that:

   

 

15.1

the Corporation has all requisite legal and corporate power and authority to issue this Warrant Certificate and the Warrants and the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants;

 

 

 

 

15.2

the execution and delivery of this Warrant Certificate and delivery of the Warrants and the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrants to the Holder: (a) do not and will not (or would not with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening of any other event or condition) constitute or result in a violation or breach of, or conflict with, or allow any other person to exercise any rights under, any of the terms or provisions of its constating documents or by-laws; (b) do not and will not (or would not with the giving of notice, the lapse of time or the happening or any other event or condition) constitute or result in a breach or violation of, or conflict with or allow any other person to exercise any rights under, any of the terms or provisions of any contracts or instruments to which it is a party; and (c) do not and will not result in the violation of any laws, statutes, regulations, or standards, policies, guidelines, notices and protocols of any governmental entity (including any stock exchange, or quasi-governmental or private body exercising any regulatory, expropriation or taxing authority)

 

 

 

 

15.3

the Common Shares to be issued in connection with any Warrant Exercise will be, on the applicable Issuance Date, validly issued and outstanding as fully paid and non- assessable Common Shares in the capital of the Corporation; and

 

 

 

 

15.4

this Warrant Certificate represents a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Corporation enforceable in accordance with its terms.

  

16.

Lost Certificate: If this Warrant Certificate is stolen, lost, mutilated or destroyed, the Corporation may issue a new certificate evidencing the unexercised Warrants, on any terms the Corporation may, in its discretion, acting reasonably, impose (which may include the delivery by the Holder of an indemnity or security).

 

 

17.

Third Party Claim Procedure

 

(1)

If the Indemnifying Party assumes the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim:

  

 

(a)

the Indemnifying Party shall pay for all reasonable costs and expenses of the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim except that the Indemnifying Party shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defence, be liable to the Indemnified Person for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defence of the Third Party Claim, incurred by the Indemnified Person after the date the Indemnifying Party validly exercised its right to assume the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim;

 

 

 

 

(b)

the Indemnifying Party shall reimburse the Indemnified Person for all costs and expenses incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim prior to the date the Indemnifying Party validly exercised its right to assume the investigation and defence of the Third Party Claim;

 

 

 

 

(c)

the Indemnified Person shall not, other than with respect to Third Party Claims in respect of taxes, contact or communicate with the Person making the Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party, unless required by applicable Law;

 

 

 

 

(d)

legal counsel chosen by the Indemnifying Party to defend the Third Party Claim must be satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, acting reasonably; and

 

 

 

 

(e)

the Indemnifying Party may not compromise and settle or remedy, or cause a compromise and settlement or remedy, of a Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

 

(2)

If the Indemnifying Party (i) is not entitled to assume the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim under Section 10.6(4) of the Agreement, (ii) does not elect to assume the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim, or (iii) assumes the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim but fails to diligently pursue such defence, or the Indemnified Person concludes that the Third Party Claim is not being defended to its satisfaction, acting reasonably, the Indemnified Person has the right (but not the obligation) to undertake the defence of the Third Party Claim. In the case where the Indemnifying Party fails to diligently pursue the defence of the Third Party Claim or the Indemnified Person concludes that the Third Party Claim is not being defended to its satisfaction, acting reasonably, the Indemnified Person may not assume the defence of the Third Party Claim unless the Indemnified Person gives the Indemnifying Party written demand to diligently pursue the defence and the Indemnifying Party fails to do so within 14 days after receipt of the demand, or such shorter period as may be required to respond to any deadline imposed by a court, arbitrator or other tribunal.

 

 

(3)

If the Indemnified Person undertakes the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person may compromise and settle the Third Party claim but the Indemnifying Party shall not be bound by any compromise or settlement of the Third Party Claim effected without its consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

 

 

(4)

The Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party agree to keep each other fully informed of the status of any Third Party Claim and any related proceedings and to use their reasonable efforts to minimize Damages with respect to any Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the investigation and defence of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Person shall, at the request and expense of the Indemnifying Party, use its reasonable efforts to make available to the Indemnifying Party, on a timely basis, those employees whose assistance, testimony or presence is necessary to assist the Indemnifying Party in investigating and defending the Third Party Claim. The Indemnified Person shall, at the request and expense of the Indemnifying Party, make available to the Indemnifying Party, or its representatives, on a timely basis all documents, records and other materials in the possession, control or power of the Indemnified Person, reasonably required by the Indemnifying Party for its use solely in defending any Third Party Claim which it has elected to assume the investigation and defence of.
