Common use of Plan Indemnification Clause in Contracts

Plan Indemnification. PLAN agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless MSSP PROVIDER, Its agents, officers and employees from and against any and all liability, expense, including defense costs and legal fees, and claims for damages of any nature whatsoever, including, but not limited to, bodily injury, death, personal injury, or property damage arising from or connected with any negligence in connection with PLAN’s operations or its services hereunder including the operations and services of PLAN’s affiliates, Subcontractors/Vendors and their respective agents. This provision is not intended to, nor shall it be construed to, require PLAN to indemnify MSSP PROVIDER for any MSSP PROVIDER liability independent of that of PLAN, nor to cause PLAN to be subject to any liability to any third party (either directly or as an indemnitor of MSSP PROVIDER or its agents, officers employees) in any case where PLAN liability would not otherwise exist. Rather, the purpose of this provision is to assure that MSSP PROVIDER and its agents, officers, and employees, will be provided with indemnification for and a defense to any vicarious or other indirect liability or claim against MSSP PROVIDER or such agents, officers, or employees resulting from the actions or other omission of PLAN, its affiliates, subcontractors/vendors and their respective employees and agents in connection with their operations and services relating to this Agreement.
