6. Upon taking legal possession of the Vessel, the City of San Rafael will rename the

party at least six months' written notice of termination, the City and the District agree to
limited shared access to the Vessel as follows:
A. The City will return the Vessel to the District upon request when the District's
primary vessel is out of service for an extended period. Extended period is defined as
longer than 48 hours, with the stipulation that regional marine asset draw down may
necessitate an immediate return of the Vessel, i.e. Fireboat Tiburon is Out of
Service.
B. Routine Maintenance shall be the logistical and financial burden of the City.
i. Anti -foul paint is recommended annually.
ii. Internal and external jet zinc anode replacement is recommended semi-
annually.
iii. Engine service is hours based and was recently completed.
iv. Quarterly vessel inspection by a certified marine mechanic is
recommended.
C. Damage and repairs to Vessel.

that are deemed operator error or neglect will be paid by the District
directly or by reimbursement to City for the cost of repairs.
ii. All repair costs incurred due to normal wear and tear will be paid by the
City regardless of agency operating the vessel at the time of occurrence.
D. Indemnification by District.
i. District agrees that it 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 District's use of the Vessel pursuant
to this Agreement. However, to the extent that liability is caused by the
negligence or willful misconduct of the City Indemnitees, the District's
indemnification obligation shall be reduced in proportion to the City
Indemnitees' share of liability for the negligence or willful misconduct.
ii. In the event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit,
or other adversarial proceeding arising from the District's use of the
Vessel pursuant to this Agreement, then District 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. The defense and indemnification obligations of
this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement for the full
period of time allowed by law.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the day, month
and year first above written.
