The contributor’s response must also state— whether the claim for the contribution or indemnity claimed in the contribution notice is admitted, denied or admitted in part; and if the claim for the contribution or indemnity is admitted in part, the extent, expressed as a percentage, to which it is admitted. An admission of liability in the contributor’s response— is not binding on the contributor in relation to any other claim; and is not binding on the contributor at all if it later appears the admission was induced by fraud.
