10. INSURANCE.
A. Scope of Coverage. During the term of this Agreement, CLUB shall maintain, at no
expense to CITY, the following insurance policies:
1. A commercial general liability insurance policy in the minimum amount of
two million dollars ($2,000,000) per occurrence/four million dollars ($4,000,000) aggregate, for
death, bodily injury, personal injury, including sexual abuse and molestation, and property damage.
2. If any licensed professional performs any of the services required to be
performed under this Agreement, a professional liability insurance policy in the minimum amount of
one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence/two million dollars ($2,000,000) aggregate, to cover
any claims arising out of the CLUB's performance of services under this Agreement. Where CLUB
is a professional not required to have a professional license, CITY reserves the right to require
CONTRACTOR to provide professional liability insurance pursuant to this section.
4. If it employs any person, CLUB shall maintain worker's compensation
insurance, as required by the State of California, with statutory limits, and employer's liability
insurance with limits of no less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per accident for bodily injury
or disease. CLUB's worker's compensation insurance shall be specifically endorsed to waive any
right of subrogation against CITY.
B. Other Insurance Requirements. The insurance coverage required of the CLUB in
subparagraph A of this section above shall also meet the following requirements:
1. Except for professional liability insurance or worker's compensation
insurance, the insurance policies shall be specifically endorsed to include the CITY, its officers,
agents, employees, and volunteers, as additional insureds (for both ongoing and completed
operations) under the policies.
2. The additional insured coverage under CLUB'S insurance policies shall be
"primary and non contributory" with respect to any insurance or coverage maintained by CITY and
shall not call upon CITY's insurance or self-insurance coverage for any contribution. The "primary
and noncontributory" coverage in CLUB'S policies shall be at least as broad as ISO form CG20 01
0413.
3. Except for professional liability insurance or worker's compensation
insurance, the insurance policies shall include, in their text or by endorsement, coverage for
contractual liability and personal injury.
4. By execution of this Agreement, CLUB hereby grants to CITY a waiver
of any right to subrogation which any insurer of CLUB may acquire against CITY by virtue of
the payment of any loss under such insurance. CLUB agrees to obtain any endorsement that
may be necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of
whether or not CITY has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.
5. If the insurance is written on a Claims Made Form, then, following termination
of this Agreement, said insurance coverage shall survive for a period of not less than five years.
6. The insurance policies shall provide for a retroactive date of placement
coinciding with the effective date of this Agreement.
7. The limits of insurance required in this Agreement may be satisfied by a
combination of primary and umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall
contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and
noncontributory basis for the benefit of CITY (if agreed to in a written contract or agreement) before
CITY'S own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
8. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance
proceeds broader than or in excess of the specified minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or
limits shall be available to CITY or any other additional insured party. Furthermore, the requirements
for coverage and limits shall be: (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this Agreement; or
(2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds
s
available to the named insured; whichever is greater. No representation is made that the minimum
Insurance requirements of this agreement are sufficient to cover the obligations of the CLUB under
this agreement.
C. Deductibles and SIR'S. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions in CLUB's
insurance policies must be declared to and approved by the PROJECT MANAGER and City
Attorney, and shall not reduce the limits of liability. Policies containing any self-insured retention
(SIR) provision shall provide or be endorsed to provide that the SIR may be satisfied by either the
named insured or CITY or other additional insured party. At CITY's option, the deductibles or self-
insured retentions with respect to CITY shall be reduced or eliminated to CITY's satisfaction, or
CLUB shall procure a bond guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims
administration, attorney's fees and defense expenses.
D. Proof of Insurance. CLUB shall provide to the PROJECT MANAGER or CITY'S
City Attorney all of the following: (1) Certificates of Insurance evidencing the insurance coverage
required in this Agreement; (2) a copy of the policy declaration page and/or endorsement page listing
all policy endorsements for the commercial general liability policy, and (3) excerpts of policy
language or specific endorsements evidencing the other insurance requirements set forth in this
Agreement. CITY reserves the right to obtain a full certified copy of any insurance policy and
endorsements from CLUB. 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., CLUB 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 CLUB'S performance of its obligations or conduct of its operations
under this Agreement. The CLUB'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 CLUB'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 CLUB's work or work product by the CITY or any of its directors,
officers or employees shall not relieve or reduce the CLUB's indemnification obligations. In the
event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit, or other adversarial proceeding
arising from CLUB'S performance of or operations under this Agreement, CLUB 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.
B. Where the services to be provided by CLUB under this Agreement are design
professional services to be performed by a design professional as that term is defined under Civil
Code Section 2782.8, then, to the extent permitted by law including without limitation, Civil Code
sections 2782, 2782.6 and 2782.8, CLUB shall indemnify and hold harmless the CITY and its
officers, officials, and employees (collectively City Indemnitees) from and against damages,
liabilities or costs (including incidental damages. Court costs, reasonable attorney's fees as may
be determined by the Court, litigation expenses and fees of expert witnesses incurred in connection
therewith and costs of investigation) to the extent they are caused by the negligence, recklessness,
or willful misconduct of CLUB, or any subconsultants, or subcontractor or anyone directly or
indirectly employed by thein, or anyone for whom they are legally liable (collectively Liabilities).
Such obligation to hold harmless and indemnify any indemnity shall not apply to the extent that
such Liabilities are caused in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of such City Indemnitee.
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. NONDISCRIMINATION.
