Certain Caps on Indemnification Liability Clause Samples
The "Certain Caps on Indemnification Liability" clause sets a maximum limit on the amount one party may be required to pay to the other as indemnification for losses or damages under the contract. Typically, this cap is expressed as a fixed dollar amount or as a percentage of the contract value, and may exclude certain types of claims, such as those arising from fraud or willful misconduct. By establishing these limits, the clause provides predictability and risk management for both parties, ensuring that potential indemnification obligations remain within agreed boundaries and do not expose either side to unlimited financial liability.
