Powers of the Managers relating to the Handling and Settlement of Claims
A. The Managers shall have the right if they so decide to control or direct the conduct of any claim or legal or other proceedings relating to any liability, loss or damage in respect whereof the Owner is or may be insured in whole or in part, and to require the Owner to settle, compromise or otherwise dispose of such claim or proceedings in such manner and upon such terms as the Managers see fit.
B. If the Owner does not settle, compromise or dispose of a claim or of proceedings after being required to do so by the Managers in accordance with paragraph (A) of this Rule, any eventual recovery by the Owner from the Association in respect of such claim or proceedings shall be limited to the amount the Owner would have recovered if it had acted as required by the Managers.
C. The Association is under no obligation to provide bail or other security on behalf of any Owner, but where the same is provided it shall be on such terms as the Managers may consider appropriate and shall not constitute any admission of liability by the Association for the claim in respect of which the bail or other security is given. It shall be a condition of the provision of bail or other security that the Owner shall indemnify the Association for any costs or liability arising therefrom or associated therewith, save to the extent that such costs or liability would have been recoverable from the Association if the Owner had incurred them directly.
