An indemnity is a useful back-up to a guarantee because:
- The Statute of Frauds does not apply to an indemnity.
- The invalidity of an underlying obligation does not invalidate an indemnity.
- Variation of the terms of an underlying obligation will not discharge an indemnity whereas it might a guarantee (unless you have a good waiver of defences clause)
