performance of this Document, Applicant shall reimburse Commission for those costs.

maintenance of the signs by Applicant, at Applicant’s expense, and Applicant shall promptly

costs (installation or maintenance) or its value, if Applicant fails to comply with the provisions
stated herein regarding maintenance responsibilities and/or if Commission, in its sole discretion,
determines that the removal of the sign(s) is in the best interests of the state highway system. For
example, the Commission may determine that a sign is no longer justified under the
circumstances present or that a sign must be removed or eliminated as part of a highway or
transportation project.
(8) INDEMNIFICATION:
(A) To the extent allowed or imposed by law, Applicant shall defend, indemnify

(2) To carry commercial general liability insurance and commercial
automobile liability insurance from a company authorized to issue insurance in Missouri, and to
name Commission, and the Missouri Department of Transportation and its employees, as

the Missouri Department of Insurance, Financial Institutions and Professional Registration, and

constitution or law.
