(i)

Misrepresentation: any breach or alleged breach of the representations and warranties contained in, or made or deemed to be made by the Issuer under, this Agreement by reference to the facts and circumstances then subsisting; or

(ii)

Breach: any breach or alleged breach by the Issuer of any of its obligations in any Bond Document or the Bonds of any Series (including, without limitation, the failure by the Issuer to issue the First Tranche Bonds on the First Tranche Closing Date or the Second Tranche Bonds on the Second Tranche Closing Date, as the case may be); or

(b)

The Issuer shall pay to the relevant Indemnified Person within 10 Business Days of written demand therefor an amount equal to such Loss; provided, however, that no Indemnified Person will be entitled to indemnity hereunder in respect of any Loss to the extent that it is finally judicially determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Loss resulted from the negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or its affiliates, officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, shareholders, agents or controlling persons (all such persons “Related Parties”).

(A)

require any Indemnified Person to provide the Issuer with a copy of any part of any document which it, in good faith, considers to be held by it subject to a duty of confidentiality or to be privileged whether in the context of any litigation connected with the claim or otherwise; or

(B)

require an Indemnified Person to do, or refrain from doing, anything which would, or which the Issuer considers might, either prejudice any insurance cover to which it or any other Indemnified Person may from time to time be entitled, or from which it or any of them may benefit or which may prejudice the reputation or standing of such Indemnified Person or of any other Indemnified Person.

(i)

includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person 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 Person.
