...for all customary and legal warranties...

Explanation:
The principal is responsible [or: held responsible, or: contracts to be responsible for, depending on context] for all customary and legal warranties and for the provision of [any necessary] proofs.

This is the best sentence I can come up with without further context, Scott.

See former Kudoz question also.
