Sec. 1789.162  Indemnification agreement.

    As a condition of approving Borrower funding, the government will 
require the Borrower to enter into an Indemnification Agreement, in form 
and substance satisfactory to RUS, providing that the Borrower will 
indemnify and hold harmless the government and any officers, agents or 
employees of the government from any and all liability, including costs, 
fees, and settlements arising out of, or in any way connected with the 
payment of the Consultant's fee pursuant to the Consultant Contract. The 
Indemnification Agreement may recognize, as a condition of liability 
thereunder, the rights of the borrower to prompt notice, to use of 
counsel of its own choosing, and to participation in any settlement of a 
claim against which indemnification is sought.
