Liability and Indemnification

To the maximum extent allowed by law, Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller and its subsidiaries, affiliates and agents, and their respective employees, officers, directors and shareholders (collectively, “Indemnities”) from and against all sums, costs, liabilities, losses, obligations, suits, actions, damages, penalties, fines, interest and other expenses (including investigation expenses and attorneys’ fees) that an Indemnitee may incur or be obligated to pay arising out of, or as a result of, (i) Customer’s negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) use, ownership, modification, maintenance, transfer, transportation, or disposal of the Product; or (iii) Customer’s violation or alleged violation of any federal, state, county or local laws or regulation, including the laws and regulations governing product safety, labeling, packaging and labor practices.
