Document background
The Deed of Indemnity and Access is commonly used when appointing new directors or officers, or updating protection for existing ones. It provides comprehensive protection beyond standard corporate indemnifications, particularly important in today's complex regulatory environment. This deed type is especially relevant in situations involving corporate governance matters, regulatory investigations, or potential litigation. The document typically includes specific provisions for accessing corporate records post-employment and detailed indemnification terms that comply with both federal and state-specific requirements in the United States.
