City of Atascadero
[A-Town AV Inc.]
7
outcome, and shall not be charged with the responsibility of preventing risk to Consultant or its
employees, agents, contractors or subcontractors.
16. INDEMNIFICATION:
A. INDEMNIFICATION FOR PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY. When the law establishes a professional
standard of care for Consultant's Services, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall
indemnify, protect, defend and hold harmless City and any and all of its officials, employees and agents
("Indemnified Parties') from and against any and all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses,
including attorney’s fees and costs to the extent same are caused in whole or in part by any negligence or
wrongful act, error or omission of Consultant, willful misconduct, or recklessness of its officers, agents,
employees or subconsultants (or any entity or individual that Consultant shall bear the legal liability
thereof) in the performance of professional services under this agreement. Consultant's duty to defend
shall consist of reimbursement of defense costs incurred by City in direct proportion to the Consultant's
proportionate percentage of fault. Consultant's percentage of fault shall be determined, as applicable, by
a court of law, jury or arbitrator. In the event any loss, liability or damage is incurred by way of settlement
or resolution without a court, jury or arbitrator having made a determination of the Consultant's
percentage of fault, the parties agree to mediation with a third party neutral to determine the Consultant's
proportionate percentage of fault for purposes of determining the amount of indemnity and defense cost
reimbursement owed to the City.
The proportionate rule, limiting Consultant’s duty to defend to the City as referenced above, does not
apply where: (1) one or more defendants is unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or
dissolution of the business; (2) a project-specific general liability policy insures all project participants for
general liability exposures on a primary basis and also covers all design professionals for their legal liability
arising out of their professional services on a primary basis; or (3) there is a design professional who is a
party to a written design-build joint venture agreement.
If one or more defendants are unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of
the business, then the other the design professionals must meet and confer with other parties regarding
unpaid defense costs and determine their proportion of responsibility.
B. INDEMNIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY. Other than in the
performance of professional services and to the full extent permitted by law, Consultant shall indemnify,
defend and hold harmless City, and any and all of its employees, officials and agents from and against any
liability (including liability for claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative proceedings,
regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs of any kind, whether actual, alleged or threatened,
including attorneys fees and costs, court costs, interest, defense costs, and expert witness fees), where the
same arise out of, are a consequence of, or are in any way attributable to, in whole or in part, the
performance of this Agreement by Consultant or by any individual or entity for which consultant is legally
liable, including but not limited to officers, agents, employees or subconsultants of Consultant.
C. GENERAL INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS. Consultant agrees to obtain executed
indemnity agreements with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section for each and every
subconsultant or any other person or entity involved by, for, with or on behalf of Consultant in the
Docusign Envelope ID: 7A69EDDD-E815-41C6-B80B-A10E5A9B754D
City of Atascadero
[A-Town AV Inc.]
8
performance of this agreement. In the event consultant fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from
others as required here, Consultant agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section.
Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional obligations on City
and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City
as set forth here is binding on the successor, assigns or heirs of Consultant and shall survive the
termination of this agreement or this section.
17. INSURANCE:
Consultant shall maintain prior to the beginning of and for the duration of this Agreement
insurance coverage as specified in Exhibit E attached to and part of this agreement.
18. RECORDS:
Consultant shall maintain complete and accurate records with respect to labor costs, material
expenses, parcels abated or serviced and other such information required by City that relates to the
performance of services under this Contract. Consultant shall maintain adequate records of services
provided in sufficient detail to permit an evaluation of services. All such records shall be maintained in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall be clearly identified and readily
accessible and in a form acceptable to the City, which the City may specify and change from time to time.
Consultant shall provide free access to the representatives of City or its designees, at reasonable times,
to such books and records, shall give City the right to examine and audit said books and records, shall
permit City to make transcripts therefrom as necessary, and shall allow inspection of all work, data,
documents, proceedings, and activities related to this Contract. Such records, together with supporting
documents, shall be maintained for a period of three (3) years after receipt of final payment.
19. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS:
A. ASSIGNMENT OR SUBSTITUTION. City has a NONDISCRIMINATION /
NONPREFERENTIAL TREATMENT STATEMENT In performing this Contract, the parties shall not
discriminate or grant preferential treatment on the basis of race, sex, color, age, religion, sexual

with all applicable local, state, and federal laws relating to nondiscrimination.
B. UNAUTHORIZED ALIENS. Consultant hereby promises and agrees to comply with all of the
provisions of the Federal Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C.A. & 1101 et seq.), as amended; and
in connection therewith, shall not employ unauthorized aliens as defined therein. Should Consultant so
employ such unauthorized aliens for the performance of work and/or services covered by this contract,

aliens, Consultant hereby agrees to, and shall, reimburse City for the cost of all such sanctions imposed,
together with any and all costs, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the City in connection therewith.

also govern the interpretation of this Contract. Any litigation concerning this Contract shall take place in
the San Luis Obispo Superior Court, federal diversity jurisdiction being expressly waived.

fulfill the duties and obligations imposed upon Consultant by this Contract. In recognition of that
interest, neither any complete nor partial assignment of this Contract, may be made by Consultant nor
changed, substituted for, deleted, or added to without the prior written consent of City which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any attempted assignment or substitution shall be ineffective, null,
and void, and constitute a material breach of this Contract entitling City to any and all remedies at law
or in equity, including summary termination of this Contract. Subcontracts, if any, shall contain a
provision making them subject to all provisions stipulated in this Contract.
E. ENTIRE CONTRACT. This Contract constitutes the entire Contract and understanding

those contained in or referred to in this Contract and this Contract supersedes all prior understandings,
agreements, courses of conduct, prior dealings among the parties and documentation of any kind
without limitation.
F. AMENDMENTS. This Contract may be modified or amended, or any of its provisions waived,
only by a subsequent written agreement executed by each of the parties. The parties agree that this
requirement for written modifications cannot be waived and any attempted waiver shall be void.

the provisions of this Contract have been arrived at through negotiation and that each party has had a
full and fair opportunity revise the provisions of this Contract and to have such provisions reviewed by
legal counsel. Therefore, any ambiguities in construing or interpreting this Contract shall not be resolved
against the drafting party. The titles of the various sections are merely informational and shall not be

other matter arising in connection with this Contract shall not be deemed a wavier with respect to any
subsequent default or other matter.
I. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, of any provision of this Contract

3. Employer's Liability: $1,000,000 per accident for bodily injury or disease.

as respects the City, its officers, officials, employees and volunteers; or the Consultant shall procure a bond guaranteeing
payment of losses and related investigations, claim administration and defense expenses.

borrowed by the Consultant. The coverage shall contain no special limitations on the scope of protection afforded
to the City, its officers, official, employees, agents or volunteers.
2. For any claims related to this project, the Consultant's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects
the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by
the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers shall be excess of the Consultant's insurance and

except with respect to the limits of the insurer's liability.

required insurance coverage. Original endorsements effecting general liability and automobile liability coverage required
by this clause must also be provided. The endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind
coverage on its behalf. All endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences.
