1. | 1. Damocles; an [[indemnitor]] (''archaic''). One who, out of a surfeit of incaution or [[deal fatigue]], has underwritten every minor calamity her counterparty may suffer; every debatable opportunity it may forgo, and every extraordinary expense it may incur, however irrational, in the performance of the contract between them. <br> | ||
2. (''Unusual'') One who, in full knowledge of the facts, has agreed to be responsible for a well-quantified and clearly-articulated externality that its counterparty may suffer while providing an incontrovertible benefit to the [[indemnifying party]] through no fault of its own. | |||
