I hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless HARBOR from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, obligations, costs, damages, and/or expenses whatsoever paid, incurred, and/or suffered by HARBOR, including, but not limited to, any and all attorneys’ fees, costs, damages, and/or judgments HARBOR incurs in the event that I, my minor child(ren)/ward(s) or anyone for which I signed this Agreement causes any injury, damage and/or harm to HARBOR and/or any and all other persons and entities acting in any capacity on behalf of HARBOR, or to others while at HARBOR premises.
