sums.
11.5 Substitutions for Contract Retentions. In accordance with California Public
Contract Code Section 22300, the City will permit the substitution of securities for any monies
withheld by the City to ensure performance under the Contract. At the request and expense of

interest thereon. The escrow agreement used for the purposes of this Section shall be in the
form provided by the City.

at delivery of the Work at the destination and time specified in this Contract. Such transferred
title shall in each case be good, free and clear from any and all security interests, liens, or other
encumbrances. Contractor promises and agrees that it will not pledge, hypothecate, or
otherwise encumber the items in any manner that would result in any lien, security interest,
charge, or claim upon or against said items. Such transfer of title shall not imply acceptance by
the City, nor relieve Contractor from the responsibility to strictly comply with the Contract, and
shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any loss of or damage to items.

13.1 If Contractor fails to commence work as provided in this Contract, or fails to make
delivery of materials promptly as ordered, or to maintain the rate of delivery or progress of the

written reports and other documents produced or developed for that portion of the work
completed and /or being abandoned. City shall pay Contractor the reasonable value of services
rendered for any portion of the work completed prior to termination. If said termination occurs
prior to completion of any task for the Project for which a payment request has not been
received, the charge for services performed during such task shall be the reasonable value of
such services, based on an amount mutually agreed to by City and Contractor of the portion of
such task completed but not paid prior to said termination. City shall not be liable for any costs
other than the charges or portions thereof which are specified herein. Contractor shall not be
entitled to payment for unperformed services, and shall not be entitled to damages or
compensation for termination of work.

17. Indemnification.
17.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Contractor shall defend, indemnify and

( "Indemnitees ") from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, liabilities,
losses, damages (including without limitation the payment of all consequential damages and
attorneys fees and other related costs and expenses) or injuries, in law or equity, regardless of
whether the allegations are false, fraudulent, or groundless, to tangible property or persons
(including wrongful death, accidents or injuries arising from the alleged failure to inspect or to
maintain traffic controllers or traffic signals, injuries or damages occurring during the transport of
products or in rendering services under the Contract Documents, such as automobile accidents,
trip /slip and fall accidents and third party assaults) arising out of or resulting from the

Contractor or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them. Contractor shall defend, at
Contractor's own cost, expense and risk, with legal counsel of Indemnitee's choosing, any and
all such aforesaid suits, actions or other legal proceedings of every kind that may be brought or
instituted against the City, its respective officials, officers, agents, employees and
representatives. To the extent of its liability, Contractor shall pay and satisfy any judgment,
award or decree that may be rendered against the City and its respective officials, officers,
agents, employees, and representatives, in any such suit, action or other legal proceeding.
Contractor shall reimburse the City and its respective officials, officers, agents, employees, and
representatives for any and all legal expenses and costs incurred by each of them in connection

shall be those imposed by Civil Code section 2782.

duty to defend as established by Section 2778 of the California Civil Code, and the duty to

Contractor to indemnify the City or any of the other Indemnitees, against liability for damages or
Revised 05/12
7
any other loss, damage or expense sustained, suffered or incurred on account of death or bodily
injury to active persons or injury to property caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct
of the City or any of the other Indemnitees set forth above. Therefore, if it is determined by legal
proceedings or agreement, that the Contractor has no direct contributory or incidental
negligence or other obligation to the City or the other Indemnitees, and the Contractor is in no
way a proper party to a particular claim, then the Contractor shall not be obligated to hold the
City or any Indemnitees harmless with respect to said claim. However, until such determination
is made by legal proceedings or agreement, or if the Contractor is found to have any degree of
direct or contributory negligence or if it is determined that the Contractor is in any way or to any
degree a proper party to said claim, then the Contractor's obligations under all of the terms and
provisions of the preceding section shall remain in full force and effect.
17.4 Nothing in this provision, or elsewhere in the Contract Documents, shall be
deemed to relieve the Contractor of its duty to defend the City or any Indemnitee, as specified
under this Article, pending a determination of the respective liabilities of the City or any
Indemnitee, by legal proceeding or agreement.
17.5 In furtherance to, but not in limitation of the indemnity provisions in this Contract,
Contractor hereby expressly and specifically agrees that its obligation to indemnify, defend and
hold harmless as provided in this Contract shall not in any way be affected or diminished by any
