Applicant likewise agrees to pay Express or its assigns, in immediately available funds, for any and all drawings against the Letter of Credit, along with any and all bank fees and commissions regardless of whether the draft was made in conformance with the terms of the Letter of Credit or whether the draft was accepted and paid after Applicant’s oral or written approval of discrepancies. Applicant unconditionally agrees that unless Express decides otherwise in its sole discretion, no drawing against a Letter of Credit shall be approved for payment until Applicant indefeasibly pays Express the full amount of the drawing and applicable bank fees in immediately available funds. Applicant unconditionally agrees that all fees and commissions incurred upon opening a Letter of Credit are fully earned and non-refundable. A Letter of Credit shall be considered opened when it is transmitted or couriered by the issuing bank to the designated advising bank, a correspondent or intermediate bank, or the designated beneficiary, regardless of whether the Letter of Credit is rejected by the beneficiary for any reason, or if it is rejected by the advising bank or any correspondent or intermediate bank for any reason except for reasons for which Express or its issuing bank are directly at fault. (2) Pursuant to the provisions of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, Express, its agents, or its affiliates shall not be liable for the form, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness, falsification or legal effect of any document, or for the general or particular conditions stipulated in a document or superimposed thereon; nor shall Express, its agents, or its affiliates be liable or responsible for the description, quantity, weight, quality, condition, packing, delivery, value or existence of the goods, services or other performance represented by any document, or for the good faith or acts or omissions, solvency, performance or standing of the consignor, the carrier, the forwarder, the consignee or the insurer of the goods or any other person.

Applicant acknowledges that this indemnification provision is a material inducement for Express to accept this Application and issue a Letter of Credit. Applicant also agrees to pay any reasonable attorney fees incurred by Express in connection with the enforcement of its rights hereunder against Applicant.
