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, officers or
employees shall not relieve or reduce the CONSULTANT's indemnification obligations. In the

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.

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, CONSULTANT 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 CONSULTANT, or any subconsultants, or subcontractor
or anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, 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.

In an effort to introduce the innovation mindset within the Client organization, the executive leaders
would like their employees to gain experience in structured problem solving, root cause analysis,
innovation impact, delivering training and future trainers. The Client seeks to relaunch the Together San
Rafael Learning Lab Initiative and engage employees in meaningful change techniques. The Contractor
will help participants identify, scope and solve programs that affect the day to day business of the
government. The participants will be expected to create and document changes for their innovations.
The project should begin with an Advanced Innovation Academy training for a select group of analysts.
These analysts will also have the opportunity if desired to move through the "Train the Trainers"
modules. As we work with the analysts, participants from prior Learning Labs will be afforded the
