Defendant-Appellant-Cross-Appellee, Wartsila Diesel Development Corporation (Wartsila), appeals from the judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Lewis A. Kaplan, Judge) granting judgment in favor of the plaintiffs-appellees-cross-appellants, Coastal Power International, Ltd. (Coastal) and Commonwealth Development Corporation, in the amount of $1,821,-465.57, together with interest and the costs of the action and dismissing the complaint with prejudice and without costs as to defendant Transcontinental Capital Corporation (TCC).
I. BACKGROUND
Plaintiffs, purchasers of a $70 million floating power plant in the Dominican Republic, claimed that they were forced to spend almost $2 million on modifications to the plant’s moorings in order to reinstate windstorm insurance on the plant. Windstorm insurance coverage was canceled on the day following the closing. Plaintiffs contended that the defendants, the former developer and former equity owner of the plant, should bear the cost on fraud and contract theories. Defendants denied liability, contending plaintiffs were well aware, prior to closing, of the insurance issue and the need for modifications.
The district court determined TCC did not fail to discharge any contractual duty to Coastal. The district court also found Coastal had knowledge at closing from Wartsila that Wartsila was in breach of certain warranty agreements and therefore Coastal could not recover for that *165breach. Nevertheless, the court made the following findings: defendant, Wartsila, breached certain covenants of the purchase agreement with plaintiffs; Wartsila’s actions were the cause in fact and proximate cause of plaintiffs’ injuries; plaintiff, Coastal, did not waive its claim for breach of contract; Coastal did not fail to mitigate its damages; and prejudgment interest was to be included in the damage award. The district court also found the indemnity clause in the purchase agreement did not clearly indicate an intention for the loser to pay the winner’s attorneys’ fees.
II. DISCUSSION
For substantially the reasons stated by the district court, we hereby affirm the district court’s opinion. See Coastal Power Int’l, Ltd. v. Transcontinental Capital Corp., 10 F.Supp.2d 345 (S.D.N.Y.1998).
Regarding attorneys’ fees1, the Court observes it is particularly important under New York law, which governs this diversity action, that in contracts of this magnitude the language of the agreement be “unmistakably clear” regarding whether the parties to the agreement intend provisions of attorneys’ fees to apply to disputes among themselves. See Hooper Assocs., Ltd. v. AGS Computers, Inc., 74 N.Y.2d 487, 492, 549 N.Y.S.2d 365, 548 N.E.2d 903, 905 (1989). Unless the intention to indemnify is “unmistakably clear” from the language of the agreement, the Court will not read into an agreement a legal duty the parties did not clearly intend. See Levine v. Shell Oil Co., 28 N.Y.2d 205, 211, 321 NY.S.2d 81, 269 N.E.2d 799, 801-02 (1971).
The purchase agreement at issue here does not clearly state the parties intended the loser in a suit for breach of the agreement to pay the winner’s attorneys’ fees. The indemnity clause at issue here states in pertinent part:
each Party ... hereby agrees to ... indemnify ... each Person to whom a representation, warranty, covenant and agreement is made hereunder ... in respect of any and all Claims it shall incur or suffer, which arise, result from or relate to any breach of, or failure by an Indemnifying Party to perform, any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement....
This Court affirms the district court’s rejection of Coastal’s indemnity claim. See Coastal, 10 F.Supp.2d at 370-71.
III. CONCLUSION
The judgment of the district court is affirmed.
. The issue of attorneys’ fees was raised by Coastal on cross-appeal.
