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

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

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

bound unto the City in the sum of TWENTY THOUSAND, FIFTY -SIX DOLLARS AND NO CENTS,
($20,056.00), said sum being not less than one hundred percent (100 %) of the total amount of the
Contract, for which amount well and truly to be made, we bind ourselves, our heirs, executors and
administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, firmly by these presents.
THE CONDITION OF THIS OBLIGATION IS SUCH, that, if the Contractor, his or its heirs,
executors, administrators, successors or assigns, shall in all things stand to and abide by, and well
and truly keep and perform the covenants, conditions and agreements in the Contract Documents
and any alteration thereof made as therein provided, on its part, to be kept and performed at the
time and in the manner therein specified, and in all respects according to their intent and meaning;
and shall faithfully fulfill all obligations including the one -year guarantee of all materials and
workmanship; and shall indemnify and save harmless the City, its officers and agents, as stipulated
in said Contract Documents, then this obligation shall become null and void; otherwise it shall be
and remain in full force and effect.
As a part of the obligation secured hereby and in addition to the face amount specified therefore,
there shall be included costs and reasonable expenses and fees including reasonable attorney's
fees, incurred by City in enforcing such obligation.
As a condition precedent to the satisfactory completion of the Contract Documents, unless
otherwise provided for in the Contract Documents, the above obligation shall hold good for a period
of one (1) year after the acceptance of the work by City, during which time if Contractor shall fail to
make full, complete, and satisfactory repair and replacements and totally protect the City from loss
or damage resulting from or caused by defective materials or faulty workmanship. The obligations
of Surety hereunder shall continue so long as any obligation of Contractor remains. Nothing herein
shall limit the City's rights or the Contractor or Surety's obligations under the Contract, law or equity,
including, but not limited to, California Code of Civil Procedure section 337.15.
Whenever Contractor shall be, and is declared by the City to be, in default under the Contract
Documents, the Surety shall remedy the default pursuant to the Contract Documents, or shall
promptly, at the City's option-.
(1) Take over and complete the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions in the
Contract Documents; or
RVPU13Z0E1T5CH1740726.3 24
(2) Obtain a bid or bids for completing the Project in accordance with all terms and conditions
in the Contract Documents and upon determination by Surety of the lowest responsive and
responsible bidder, arrange for a Contract between such bidder, the Surety and the City, and make
available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less the
balance of the contract price, including other costs and damages for which Surety may be liable.
The term "balance of the contract price" as used in this paragraph shall mean the total amount
payable to Contractor by the City under the Contract and any modification thereto, less any amount
previously paid by the City to the Contractor and any other set offs pursuant to the Contract
Documents.
(3) Permit the City to complete the Project in any manner consistent with California law and
make available as work progresses sufficient funds to pay the cost of completion of the Project, less

Documents.
Surety expressly agrees that the City may reject any contractor or subcontractor which may be
proposed by Surety in fulfillment of its obligations in the event of default by the Contractor.
Surety shall not utilize Contractor in completing the Project nor shall Surety accept a bid from
Contractor for completion of the Project if the City, when declaring the Contractor in default, notifies
Surety of the City's objection to Contractor's further participation in the completion of the Project,
The Surety, for value received, hereby stipulates and agrees that no change, extension of time,
alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or to the Project to be performed
thereunder shall in any way affect its obligations on this bond, and it does hereby waive notice of
any such change, extension of time, alteration or addition to the terms of the Contract Documents or
