Obligation to Defend and Indemnify Sample Clauses

The Obligation to Defend and Indemnify clause requires one party to protect the other from legal claims and to cover associated costs, such as legal fees and damages, arising from specified events or actions. Typically, this means that if a third party sues the protected party for issues related to the contract, the indemnifying party must step in to handle the defense and pay any resulting settlements or judgments. This clause is essential for allocating risk between parties, ensuring that the party best positioned to manage or prevent certain risks bears the financial responsibility if those risks materialize.
