You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Divvy and its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, and suppliers, and each of their respective officers, directors and employees from all damages, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable outside legal fees) arising out of or in connection with any breach or alleged breach by you (or anyone acting on your behalf) of any of the terms of this Agreement.
