v. Auditor shall supply City with a fully executed additional insured
<br />endorsement.
<br />£ If Auditor fails or refuses to produce or maintain the insurance required by this
<br />section or fails or refuses to furnish the City with required proof that insurance has
<br />been procured and is in force and paid for, the City shall have the right, at the City's
<br />election, to forthwith terminate this Agreement. Such termination shall not affect
<br />Auditor's right to be paid for its time and materials expended prior to notification
<br />of termination. Auditor waives the right to receive compensation and agrees to
<br />indemnify the City for any work performed prior to approval of insurance by the
<br />City.
<br />7. INDEMNIFICATION
<br />Auditor agrees to defend, and shall indemnify and hold harmless the City, its officers,
<br />agents, employees, contractors, special counsel, and representatives from liability: (1) for personal
<br />injury, damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief arising out of claims for
<br />personal injury, including death, and claims for property damage, which may arise from the
<br />negligent operations of the Auditor, its subcontractors, agents, employees, or other persons acting
<br />on its behalf which relates to the services described in section I of this Agreement; and (2) from
<br />tiny claim that personal injury, damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief
<br />is due by reason of the terms of or effects arising from this Agreement. This indemnity and hold
<br />harmless agreement applies to all claims for damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or
<br />equitable relief suffered, or alleged to have been suffered, by reason of the events referred to in
<br />this Section or by reason of the terms of, or effects, arising from this Agreement. The Auditor
<br />further agrees to indemnify„ hold harmless, and pay all costs for the defense of the City, including
<br />fees and costs for special counsel to be selected by the City, regarding any action by a third party
<br />challenging the validity of this Agreement, or asserting that personal injury, damages, just
<br />compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief due to personal or property rights arises by
<br />reason of the terms of, or effects arising from this Agreement. City may make all reasonable
<br />decisions with respect to its representation in any legal proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
<br />to the extent Auditor's services are subject to Civil Code Section 2782.8, the above indemnity shall
<br />be limited, to the extent required by Civil Code Section 2782.8, to claims that arise out of, pertain
<br />to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Auditor.
<br />8. RECORDS
<br />Auditor shall keep records and invoices in connection with the work to be performed under
<br />this Agreement. Auditor shall maintain complete and accurate records with respect to the costs
<br />incurred under this Agreement and any services, expenditures, and disbursements charged to the
<br />City for a minimum period of three (3) years, or for any longer period required by law, from the
<br />date of final payment to Auditor under this Agreement. All such records and invoices shall be
<br />clearly identifiable. Auditor shall allow a representative of the City to examine, audit, and make
<br />transcripts or copies of such records and any other documents created pursuant to this Agreement
<br />during regular business hours. Auditor shall allow inspection of all work, data, documents,
<br />proceedings, and activities related to this Agreement for a period of three (3) years from the date
