<br />loss or injury of any kind to any person or property resulting from any construction on, or
<br />occupancy or use of, the Property, whether arising from: (i) any defect in any building,
<br />grading, landscaping or other onsite or offsite improvement; (ii) any act or omission of
<br />Developer or any of Developer's agents, employees, independent contractors, licensees or
<br />invitees; or, (iii) any accident on the Property or any fire or other casualty or hazard
<br />thereon; and
<br />(d) By accepting or approving anything required to be performed or
<br />given to City under the Loan Documents, including any certificate, financial statement,
<br />survey, appraisal or insurance policy, City shall not be deemed to have warranted or
<br />represented the sufficiency or legal effect of the same, and no such acceptance or approval
<br />shall constitute a warranty or representation by City to anyone.
<br />18.2. Indemnity. Developer shall defend (by counsel reasonably satisfactory
<br />to City), indemnify and save and hold harmless the Indemnitees from and against all
<br />claims, damages, demands, actions, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including,
<br />without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) arising from or relating to:
<br />(i) a breach of this Agreement by Developer; (ii) the making of the City/HOME Loan; (iii)
<br />a claim, demand or cause of action that any person has or asserts against Developer; (iv)

<br />obligated to indemnify City with respect to the consequences of any act of illegal conduct,

<br />indemnify, hold harmless and defend the City and its elected officials, officers, governing
<br />members, employees, attorneys and agents (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties"), from
<br />and against any and all losses, damages, claims, actions, liabilities, reasonable costs and
<br />expenses of any and every conceivable nature, kind or character (including, without
<br />limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, litigation and court costs, amounts paid in settlement
<br />and amounts paid to discharge judgments) to which the Indemnified Parties, or any of them,
<br />may become subject to under any statutory law (including federal or state securities laws)
<br />or at common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon or in any way relating to:
<br />(i) the Loan Documents or the execution or amendment thereof
<br />or in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby;
