Item 4. Description of Securities

Not Applicable.

 

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

Not Applicable.

 

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The bye-laws of the Registrant provide that each director, officer, resident representative, committee member and liquidator, manager or trustee acting in relation to the Registrant’s affairs and his or her heirs, executors and administrators (each, an “Indemnified Person”) will be indemnified and held harmless out of the Registrant’s assets against all liabilities, loss, damage or expense, whether under contract, tort and statute or any applicable foreign law or regulation and all reasonable legal and other costs and expenses properly payable, incurred or suffered by him or her by or by reason of any act done, conceived in or omitted in the conduct of the Registrant’s business or in the discharge of his or her duties to the fullest extent authorized by the Companies Act. Each Indemnified Person will be indemnified out of the Registrant’s assets against all liabilities incurred by him or her by or by reason of any act done, conceived in or omitted in the conduct of the Registrant’s business or in the discharge of his or her duties, in defending any criminal or civil proceedings in which judgment is given in his or her favor, or in which he or she is acquitted, or in connection with any application under the Companies Act in which relief from liability is granted by the court. Any indemnification to which an Indemnified Person is entitled due to amounts paid or discharged by him or her will become an obligation of the Registrant to reimburse such Indemnified Person making such payment or effecting such discharge.

The Registrant’s bye-laws also provide for the advancement of costs incurred in defending any civil or criminal action or proceeding for which indemnification is required pursuant to the Registrant’s bye-laws upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of an Indemnified Person to repay such amount if any allegation of fraud or dishonesty is proved against such Indemnified Person, provided that no amounts will be paid unless such payment is authorized upon a determination by vote of disinterested directors or shareholders or by independent legal counsel that indemnification would be proper because the Registrant’s director or officer met the standard of conduct which would entitle him or her to the indemnification thereby provided.

 

II-1


The bye-laws provide that the Registrant and the Registrant’s shareholders waive any claim or right of action against any Indemnified Person on account of any action taken by him or her or any failure by him or her to take any action in the performance of his or her duties with or for the Registrant, provided that such waiver will not apply to any claims or rights of action arising out of the fraud of such Indemnified Person or to matters which would render the waiver void pursuant to the Companies Act.

The Registrant is permitted to purchase and maintain insurance for or for the benefit of any Indemnified Person or any person who is or was at any time a director, officer or employee of the Registrant, or of any other company which is its holding company or in which the Registrant or such holding company has any interest whether direct or indirect or which is in any way allied to or associated with the Registrant, or of any subsidiary undertaking of the Registrant or any such other company, or who is or was at any time trustee of any pension fund in which employees of the Registrant or any such other company or subsidiary undertaking are interested, including insurance against any liability incurred by such person in respect of any act or omission in the actual or purported execution or discharge of his or her duties or in the exercise or purported exercise of his or her powers or otherwise in relation to his or her duties, powers or offices in relation to the Registrant or any such other company, subsidiary undertaking or pension fund.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the bye-laws of the Registrant, an Indemnified Person will not be liable to the Registrant or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of a fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent such exemption from liability or limitation is not permitted under the Companies Act. Neither the amendment nor repeal of any provision of the Registrant’s bye-laws will alter the rights of an Indemnified Person to the advancement of expenses or indemnification related to a claim based on an act or failure to act which took place prior to such amendment, repeal or termination.

Item 9. Undertakings

A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement and

 

II-2


(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those clauses is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant’s Amended and Restated 2007 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan or Gecis Global Holdings 2005 Stock Option Plan.

B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
