Indemnity and Risk Allocation

Section 13 provides that the service provider indemnifies Northgate for certain third-party claims, as written. Section 12 requires the service provider to carry insurance and to name Northgate as an additional insured on the CGL. The insurance requirements (§12) and the indemnity (§13) are related risk-transfer mechanisms; how they interact, and the scope and legal effect of each, are questions for the attorney. This review states what the clauses say and does not determine the scope or effect of the indemnity or the additional insured requirement.

Missing Provisions

Negotiation Points (direction only — customer's side)

  1. Consider adding a waiver of subrogation in favor of the customer.
  2. Consider adding primary and noncontributory language for the customer's additional insured coverage.
  3. Consider adding a notice-of-cancellation / nonrenewal requirement.
  4. Consider specifying how certificates and endorsement forms must be delivered.
  5. Consider whether subcontractor / lower-tier insurance requirements are needed.
