Is this indemnification clause OK?

Dear Charlie

You recently responded to a question posted regarding changing clause 12 in the document you have previously sent to us ‘Occupational licence for accommodation within Organisation X’s Buildings’. You also said that it would affect clause 22 of the same document and we have reworded it as follows. It is a reworking of bits from both example licences and is much shorter than the original Clause 22, but I think it would work. Basically it says that they will indemnify the community association unless they have failed to do what it says they should in the lease.

22. The Group shall indemnify and save harmless Organisation X and members of its governing body from and against all actions, claims and demands arising out of the Licence hereby granted (save to the extent that such loss or damage arises out of the acts or omissions on the part of the Organisation X).

We would appreciate your comments.
