CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and endorsements from CONTRACTOR. Failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise it later. The insurance shall be approved as to form and sufficiency by PROJECT MANAGER and the City Attorney. 11. INDEMNIFICATION. A. Except as otherwise provided in Paragraph B., CONTRACTOR shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify, release, defend with counsel approved by CITY, and hold harmless CITY, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers (collectively, the “City Indemnitees”), from and against any claim, demand, suit, judgment, loss, liability or expense of any kind, including but not limited to attorney's fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation, (collectively “CLAIMS”), arising out of CONTRACTOR’S performance of its obligations or conduct of its operations under this Agreement. The CONTRACTOR's obligations apply regardless of whether or not a liability is caused or contributed to by the active or passive negligence of the City Indemnitees. However, to the extent that liability is caused by the active negligence or willful misconduct of the City Indemnitees, the CONTRACTOR's indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the City Indemnitees’ share of liability for the active negligence or willful misconduct. In addition, the acceptance or approval of the CONTRACTOR’s work or work product by the CITY or any of its directors, officers or employees shall not relieve or reduce the CONTRACTOR’s indemnification obligations. In the event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial proceeding arising from CONTRACTOR’S performance of or operations under this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall provide a defense to the City Indemnitees or at CITY’S option reimburse the City Indemnitees their costs of defense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in defense of such claims.

In no event shall the cost to defend charged to the design professional exceed the design professional’s proportionate percentage of fault. 6 C. The defense and indemnification obligations of this Agreement are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this Agreement, and shall survive the termination or completion of this Agreement for the full period of time allowed by law. 12.
