<br />amendatory endorsements (or copies of the applicable policy language effecting coverage required by
<br />this clause) and a copy of the Declarations and Endorsement Page of the CGL policy listing all policy
<br />endorsements before work begins. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work
<br />beginning shall not waive Consultant's obligation to provide them.
<br />City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies,
<br />including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.
<br />SPECIAL RISI{S OR CIRCUMSTANCES
<br />City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the

<br />Officials, officers, agents, employees, contractors, special counsel, and representatives from liability: (1)
<br />for personal injury, damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief arising out of
<br />claims for personal injury, including death, and claims for property damage, which may arise from the
<br />negligent operations of the Contractor, its subcontractors, agents, employees, or other persons acting on
<br />its behalf which relates to the services described in section 1 of this Agreement; and (2) from any claim
<br />that personal injury, damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief is due by reason
<br />of the terms of or effects arising from this Agreement. This indemnity and hold harmless agreement
<br />applies to all claims for damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief suffered, or
<br />alleged to have been suffered, by reason of the events referred to in this Section or by reason of the terms
<br />of, or effects, arising from this Agreement. The Consultant further agrees to indemnify, hold harmless,
<br />and pay all costs for the defense of the City, including fees and costs for special counsel to be selected by
<br />the City, regarding any action by a third party challenging the validity of this Agreement, or asserting that
<br />personal injury, damages, just compensation, restitution, judicial or equitable relief due to personal or
<br />property rights arises by reason of the terms of, or effects arising from this Agreement. City may make
<br />all reasonable decisions with respect to its representation in any legal proceeding. Notwithstanding the
<br />foregoing, to the extent Contractor's services are subject to Civil Code Section 2782.8, the above
<br />indemnity shall be limited, to the extent required by Civil Code Section 2782.8, to claims that arise out
<br />of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor.
<br />7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INDEMNIFICATION
<br />Consultant shall defend and indemnify the City, its officers, agents, representatives, and employees
<br />against any and all liability, including costs, for infringement of any United States' letters patent,
<br />trademark, or copyright infringement, including costs, contained in the work product or documents
<br />provided by Consultant to the City pursuant to this Agreement.
