persons engaged in providing services similar to the Services required of Service
Provider under this Agreement. In addition to the general standards of performance set
forth this section, additional specific standards of performance and performance criteria
may be set forth in Exhibit "A" "Scope of Work" that shall also be applicable to Service

criteria shall prevail over the general.

of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act, 8 U.S.C.A. §§ 1101, et sem., as
amended, and in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined
therein. Should Service Provider so employ such unauthorized aliens for the

shall reimburse City for the cost of all such liabilities or sanctions imposed, together with
any and all costs, including attorneys' fees, incurred by City.

performance of the Services. Service Provider further covenants that in the performance
of this Agreement, no person having any such interest shall be employed by it as an

this Agreement.

date of execution of this Agreement, independently involved in the performance of non-
RIV !4838-6958-3880 v3

City on such projects shall not be considered a conflict of interest for purposes of this
section.

City Attorney of City, voluntarily provide declarations, letters of support, testimony at

incurred as a result of Service Provider's conduct.

officers, employees, agents or subcontractors be served with any summons, complaint,

or similar proceeding. Service Provider agrees to cooperate fully with City and to

mean the right by City to control, direct, or rewrite said response.
SECTION 16. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Indemnification for Professional Liability. Where the law establishes a
professional standard of care for Service Provider's services, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, Service Provider shall indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless
RIV N4838-6958-3880 V3

proceedings, administrative proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or
costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened, including attorneys fees and
costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees) arise out of, are a
consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, any negligent or
wrongful act, error or omission of Service Provider, or by any individual or entity for
which Service Provider is legally liable, including but not limited to officers, agents,
employees or sub -contractors of Service Provider, in the performance of professional
services under this Agreement.
(b) Indemnification for Other than Professional Liability. Other than in the

threatened, including attorneys fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and
expert witness fees), where the same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any
way attributable to, in whole or in part, the performance of this Agreement by Service

Provider.

executed indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth in this
section from each and every subcontractor or any other person or entity involved by, for,
with or on behalf of Service Provider in the performance of this Agreement naming the
Indemnified Parties as additional indemnities. In the event Service Provider fails to
obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required herein, Service Provider
agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section. Failure of City to
monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City
and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify
and defend City as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns or heirs of
Service Provider and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section.
(d) Limitation of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision of this section
to the contrary, design professionals are required to defend and indemnify the City only

professional to claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative
proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs that arise out of, pertain
to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the design
professional. The term "design professional," as defined in Section 2782.8, is limited to
licensed architects, licensed landscape architects, registered professional engineers,
professional land surveyors, and the business entities that offer such services in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the California Business and Professions
Code.

release City from liability arising from gross negligence or willful acts or omissions of
City or any and all of its officials, employees and agents.
SECTION 17. INSURANCE.
Service Provider agrees to obtain and maintain in full force and effect during the
term of this Agreement the insurance policies set forth in Exhibit "C" "Insurance" and
made a part of this Agreement. All insurance policies shall be subject to approval by
City as to form and content. These requirements are subject to amendment or waiver if
so approved in writing by the City Manager. Service Provider agrees to provide City with
copies of required policies upon request.

this Agreement. City has an interest in the qualifications and capability of the persons
and entities who will fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Service Provider
under this Agreement. In recognition of that interest, Service Provider shall not assign or
transfer this Agreement or any portion of this Agreement or the performance of any of
Service Provider's duties or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of the City. Any attempted assignment shall be ineffective, null and void, and
shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement entitling City to any and all
remedies at law or in equity, including termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section
20 "Termination of Agreement." City acknowledges, however, that Service Provider, in
the performance of its duties pursuant to this Agreement, may utilize subcontractors.

continuity of Service Provider's staff and subcontractors, if any, assigned to perform the

such performance.

under this Agreement, then, in addition to any other remedies, either Service Provider,
or City may terminate this Agreement immediately upon written notice.

and expenses incurred by Service Provider, prepared as set forth in Section 4
"Compensation and Method of Payment" of this Agreement. This final invoice shall be
reviewed and paid in the same manner as set forth in Section 4 "Compensation and
Method of Payment" of this Agreement.
SECTION 21. DEFAULT.
In the event that Service Provider is in default under the terms of this Agreement,
the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating Service Provider
for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to
Service Provider of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include
the timeframe in which Service Provider may cure the default. This timeframe is
presumptively thirty (30) days, but may be extended, though not reduced, if
circumstances warrant. During the period of time that Service Provider is in default, the
City shall hold all invoices and shall, when the default is cured, proceed with payment
on the invoices. In the alternative, the City may, in its sole discretion, elect to pay some
or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Service Provider does
not cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement
under Section 20 "Termination of Agreement." Any failure on the part of the City to give
notice of the Service Provider's default shall not be deemed to result in a waiver of the
City's legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this Agreement.
SECTION 22. EXCUSABLE DELAYS.
Service Provider shall not be liable for damages, including liquidated damages, if
any, caused by delay in performance or failure to perform due to causes beyond the

causes.
