Lines up two versions of an indemnity clause side by side, checking scope, triggers, and reciprocity, then scores the risk level and recommends which one to sign.
Lines up two versions of an indemnity clause side by side, checking scope, triggers, and reciprocity, then scores the risk level and recommends which one to sign. Use it before finalizing a contract to catch one-sided or overly broad indemnity language.
Compare the two indemnity clauses below. Identify which version favours the supplier and explain why. Present your analysis in a side-by-side Markdown table with the following columns:
Clause text | Risk level (Low/Medium/High) | Explanation
Focus on:
1. Scope of indemnity (e.g. who is protected and for what types of loss)
2. Trigger events and any limitations or carve-outs
3. Reciprocity or imbalance between supplier and customer
End with a one-line recommendation on which clause the customer should prefer and why. Use plain, commercial English, not legalese.
