products, Seller warrants the products will be fit for such particular use and purpose. Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless relative to any breach of

written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Buyer's failure to insist on performance of any of the terms or conditions herein or to exercise any right or
privilege or Buyer's waiver of any breach hereunder shall not thereafter waive any other terms, conditions, or privileges, whether of the same or similar type. If any provision or
application of this agreement is held illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such illegality or unenforceability shall not affect other provisions or applications which can be given
effect, and this agreement shall be construed as if the illegal or unenforceable provision or application had never been contained herein or prescribed hereby.

costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith, including reasonable attorneys' fees and all costs of defense, arising out of or attributable to the negligent
or wrongful acts of Seller or its subcontractors, employees or agents in the performance of the work or delivery of products under this agreement, except to the
extent arising from or caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Buyer, its officers, agents or employees. The terms of this indemnity shall
survive the termination of this agreement. The obligations in this paragraph are in addition to Seller's duty to provide insurance and shall not be limited by any
limitation on the amount or type of insurance coverage carried by Seller.

subcontractor used in the performance of this agreement. Seller shall submit to Buyer documentation indicating compliance with these requirements not less than one (1) day prior

insurance has been filed with and approved by the Buyer. Seller shall not permit a subcontractor or vendor to perform work on Buyer's premises unless and until a certificate of
insurance is obtained showing that such subcontractor or vendor has workers compensation coverage. If Seller employs subcontractors as part of the services rendered, Seller's
