shall maintain, at no expense to CITY, the following insurance policies:
1. A commercial general liability insurance policy in the minimum amount
of one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence/two million dollars ($2,000,000)
aggregate, for death, bodily injury, personal injury, or property damage.
2. An automobile liability (owned, non -owned, and hired vehicles)
insurance policy in the minimum amount of one million dollars ($1,000,000) dollars per
occurrence.
3. 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 CONSULTANT's performance of services
under this Agreement. Where CONSULTANT is a professional not required to have a
professional license, CITY reserves the right to require CONSULTANT to provide
professional liability insurance pursuant to this section.
4. If it employs any person, CONSULTANT 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. CONSULTANT'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
CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT'S policies
shall be at least as broad as ISO form CG20 01 04 13.
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, CONSULTANT hereby grants to
CITY a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of CONSULTANT may
acquire against CITY by virtue of the payment of any loss under such
insurance. CONSULTANT 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.
4
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 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 CONSULTANT under this
agreement.
C. Deductibles and SIR's. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions in
CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT shall procure a bond
guaranteeing payment of losses and related investigations, claims administration, attorney's
fees and defense expenses.
D. Proof of Insurance. CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT. 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. CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT'S performance of its obligations or
conduct of its operations under this Agreement. The CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT'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 CONSULTANT's work or work product by the CITY or any of its directors,
5
officers or employees shall not relieve or reduce the CONSULTANT's indemnification
obligations. In the event the City Indemnitees are made a party to any action, lawsuit,
or other adversarial proceeding arising from CONSULTANT'S performance of or
operations under this Agreement, CONSULTANT 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. The defense and indemnification obligations of this Agreement are
undertaken in addition to, and shall not in anyway 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.

of age, sex, race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin or disability in connection with or
related to the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement.

release, defend, indemnify and hold harmless CITY, its officers, agents and employees from
any and all damages, liabilities, penalties, fines and all other consequences from any
noncompliance or violation of any laws, ordinances, codes or regulations.

in any third party, any benefit or right owed by one party, under the terms and conditions of
