We have reviewed the indemnity draft and have the following comments to ensure our interests as the service receiver are safeguarded:
*. Liability Cap: The clause limiting the liability to the Total Subscription amount can be negative for us. We propose removing or increasing the liability cap to better protect our interests.
*. Damages: The current clause excludes indirect, incidental, punitive, special, consequential, or exemplary damages. We suggest including all types of damages to ensure comprehensive coverage.
*. Remedies for Breach: Clearly define remedies for breach, including specific performance, to ensure that any violation of the agreement is adequately addressed.
Please review these suggestions and let us know your thoughts.
