11.—(1) The undertaker must pay to Canal & River Trust all reasonable and proper costs, charges, damages and expenses not otherwise provided for in this Part that may be reasonably incurred by Canal & River Trust—
(a)by reason of the existence, construction or maintenance of a specified work; or
(b)by reason of any act or omission of the undertaker or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or others whilst engaged upon a specified work,
and the undertaker must indemnify and keep indemnified Canal & River Trust from and against all reasonable and proper claims and demands arising out of or in connection with a specified work or any such act or omission. The fact that any act or thing may have been done by Canal & River Trust on behalf of the undertaker or in accordance with plans approved by the engineer or in accordance with any requirement of the engineer or under the engineer’s supervision does not (if it was done without negligence on the part of Canal & River Trust or of any person in its employ or of its contractors or agents) excuse the undertaker from any liability under this sub-paragraph.
(2) Canal & River Trust must give the undertaker reasonable notice of any such claim or demand, and save as such conduct would be contrary to law no settlement or compromise of such a claim or demand must be made without the prior written consent of the undertaker, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
