products, breached this Agreement or committed negligence, errors or omissions
with respect to the product or customer involved. DEALER will take the steps
necessary to protect its own interests and the interests of AZIMUT involved in

harmless from any claim, demand, cause of action or cost, including attorney
fees incurred by AZIMUT relating thereto, which may arise or be asserted against

omission of DEALER in connection with the sale, preparation, repair or service

opportunity to resolve such claims, provided that no resolution or settlement
shall be binding upon AZIMUT without its written approval thereof. AZIMUT shall
be obligated to tender defense of any such claim, demand or cause of action to
DEALER; provided however that Azimut shall have the opportunity to approve of
counsel in its reasonable judgment. AZIMUT shall not retain counsel of its
choosing to defend an indemnified claim under this paragraph and DEALER shall
not be required to reimburse AZIMUT for any costs or attorneys’ fees as incurred
if Azimut chooses its own counsel. DEALER shall obtain and maintain
comprehensive general liability insurance, through solvent and reputable
carriers, in amounts reasonably satisfactory to AZIMUT and shall name AZIMUT as
