(i) providing such financial and other information relating to the Group as the Mandated Lead Arrangers, acting reasonably, may deem necessary to achieve Successful Syndication provided that no such information shall be required to be so provided to the extent that the same would require a filing to be made by any Obligor with the SEC as a result thereof;
(ii) in line with normal market practice, assisting the Mandated Lead Arrangers in the preparation of any supplemental materials to the Information Memoranda;
(iii) allow attendance by senior management of the Ultimate Parent and the Company at one or more bank presentations or meeting with potential lenders at such times and places as the Mandated Lead Arrangers may agree with the Ultimate Parent and the Company; and
(iv) use reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from the Group’s existing lending relationships, provided that no Obligor shall be required to provide any information where, having regard to the relevance of that information to the achievement of Successful Syndication, it would be unreasonable to do so.
(b) Without prejudice to the provisions of paragraph (a), no Obligor shall be required to take any action or to deliver any information that would conflict with any applicable Law to which it is bound or other applicable regulation including the Takeover Code, US Federal securities laws, the laws of Delaware, or to provide any disclosures that would require a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or cause it or any of its Subsidiaries to breach any applicable confidentiality undertaking to which it is bound or which might prejudice its entitlement to or retention of legal privilege in any document. In the event that the Mandated Lead Arrangers request any information to be disclosed or action to be taken which is subject to a confidentiality undertaking, the Parent or the relevant Obligor as the case may be, shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain the consent of the relevant beneficiary of such confidentiality undertaking to such action in order to allow such disclosure or action to be taken.
