Alaska Indemnity Provisions — Parties to the Indemnity: A Comprehensive Overview Indemnity provisions play a crucial role in contracts, protecting parties from potential liabilities and losses.

This means that the indemnity agrees to compensate the other party for any loss, damages, costs, or liabilities incurred due to specific reasons outlined in the contract. The indemnity essentially bears the financial burden if the indemnity event occurs. 2. Indemnity: The indemnity, also referred to as the "indemnified party," is the entity or individual benefiting from the indemnity provision. In the event of loss, damages, costs, or liabilities as specified in the contract, the indemnity has the right to seek compensation from the indemnity for any actual losses incurred.
