(A) any transaction, contract, understanding, promise, representation, warranty or other relationship, actual, asserted or alleged, between You and any Customer relating to the Luca Pay Purchase or the Goods or Services;

(ii) This indemnity is a continuing obligation, independent of Your other obligations under this Agreement and continues after this Agreement ends. It is not necessary for us to incur expense or make payment before enforcing a right of indemnity under this Agreement.

(iii) To the extent that the indemnity in clause 10((c) is in favour of a person other than Luca Pay, we contract as trustee of the rights under the indemnity.
