Loan Agreement (Unsecured)

An Unsecured Loan Agreement establishes credit terms without collateral, relying on borrower creditworthiness. This playbook focuses on interest provisions, representations, and remedies for nonpayment.

Indemnification Provisions

Why This Matters: Open-ended indemnities can lead to unlimited liability and strained relationships. Structured indemnities with limits protect budget certainty and encourage cooperation.

Negotiation strategy

If you're the Lender:

Negotiate for clear caps on liability and ensure that indemnification obligations are proportionate to the risk assumed. Insist on prompt notice of claims to manage potential liabilities effectively.

If you're the Borrower:

Seek to limit indemnification obligations to specific breaches and known risks. Ensure that any indemnity obligations are capped and that there are clear procedures for handling claims.

For cross-border transactions, consider local legal requirements and potential jurisdictional issues when drafting indemnification clauses.

Technology Agreements

In technology agreements, ensure indemnification covers intellectual property infringements and data breaches, with specific caps and procedures.
