(a) The grantee shall pay, and, within thirty days of the effective date of the award of the franchise agreement, specifically agrees to pay, all charges, damages and penalties which the Village may legally be required to pay as a result of granting the franchise.
(b) The grantee shall, at its sole cost and expense, indemnify and hold harmless the Village, its officials, boards, commissions, agents and employees against any and all claims, suits, causes of action, proceedings and judgments for damages arising out of the operation of the cable television system under the franchise agreement. Such damages shall include, but not be limited to, penalties arising out of copyright infringements and damages arising out of any failure by the grantee to secure consent from the owners, authorized distributors or licensees of programs to be delivered by the grantee's cable television system, whether or not any act or omission complained of is authorized, allowed or prohibited by the franchise. Indemnified expenses shall include, but are not limited to, all out-of-pocket expenses such as attorney's fees, court costs and witness fees and shall also include the reasonable value of any service rendered by assistants, agents or employees of the Village.
