Also, is " shall take all such steps as are practicable to ensure" correct in grammar?
Context:

@oristarA,
Not quite.
For future reference Ori.
All legal texts in the US are written so the layman can't understand it.
This is to protect the ability of attorneys to charge $200. an hour.
@oristarA,
Well it's perfectly correct legalese.

That's exactly right.
Wait, $200 per hour? Is that the going rate in your neck of the woods? Seems a bit low to me.
@Ticomaya,

It's the rate charged for representing indigents
The whole passage is absolutely grammatically correct.
@oristarA,
It makes sense. "Itself" refers to the Distributor and the it is the Distributor who "shall take all such steps".
Stumble It!
