Ethnic over-representation Sample Clauses

Ethnic over-representation. The electoral system set out in the Agreement is premised on the principle of universal suffrage (supported by every one of the parties) with a common voter's roll (supported by at least 12 and possibly more of the parties). The electoral system envisages that voting will be in respect of party lists in a proportional representation system in which the lists are required to reflect a high degree of representation of minorities. A system of multi-ethnic lists was supported principally by the centrist parties, including the Government, and opposed only by a minority of parties which had proposed segregated political structures. Some parties have called for as many as 50% of the members of the National Assembly to come from the approximately 15% of the population made up of minorities. The electoral system as proposed here will yield a National Assembly in which, before co-optation as described below, approximately 38% of the members are from the minorities.

  • Lender Representations (i) Each Lender represents that it is either (1) a corporation or banking association organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof or (2) it is entitled to complete exemption from United States withholding tax imposed on or with respect to any payments, including fees, to be made to it pursuant to this Agreement (A) under an applicable provision of a tax convention to which the United States of America is a party or (B) because it is acting through a branch, agency or office in the United States of America and any payment to be received by it hereunder is effectively connected with a trade or business in the United States of America. Each Lender that is not a corporation or banking association organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof agrees to provide to the Borrower and the Agent on the Closing Date, or on the date of its delivery of the Assignment pursuant to which it becomes a Lender, and at such other times as required by United States law or as the Borrower or the Agent shall reasonably request, two accurate and complete original signed copies of either (A) Internal Revenue Service Form 4224 (or successor form) certifying that all payments to be made to it hereunder will be effectively connected to a United States trade or business (the "Form 4224 Certification") or (B) Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 (or successor form) certifying that it is entitled to the benefit of a provision of a tax convention to which the United States of America is a party which completely exempts from United States withholding tax all payments to be made to it hereunder (the "Form 1001 Certification"). In addition, each Lender agrees that if it previously filed a Form 4224 Certification, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a new Form 4224 Certification prior to the first payment date occurring in each of its subsequent taxable years; and if it previously filed a Form 1001 Certification, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Agent a new certification prior to the first payment date falling in the third year following the previous filing of such certification. Each Lender also agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Agent such other or supplemental forms as may at any time be required as a result of changes in applicable law or regulation in order to confirm or maintain in effect its entitlement to exemption from United States withholding tax on any payments hereunder, provided that the circumstances of such Lender at the relevant time and applicable laws permit it to do so. If a Lender determines, as a result of any change in either (i) a Governmental Requirement or (ii) its circumstances, that it is unable to submit any form or certificate that it is obligated to submit pursuant to this Section 4.06, or that it is required to withdraw or cancel any such form or certificate previously submitted, it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of such fact. If a Lender is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States of America, unless the Borrower and the Agent have received a Form 1001 Certification or Form 4224 Certification satisfactory to them indicating that all payments to be made to such Lender hereunder are not subject to United States withholding tax, the Borrower shall withhold taxes from such payments at the applicable statutory rate. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Borrower or Agent, as applicable, from any United States taxes, penalties, interest and other expenses, costs and losses incurred or payable by (i) the Agent as a result of such Lender's failure to submit any form or certificate that it is required to provide pursuant to this Section 4.06 or (ii) the Borrower or the Agent as a result of their reliance on any such form or certificate which such Lender has provided to them pursuant to this Section 4.06.
