Section 10. Clayton and Cartwright Act Assignments .
In entering into this Contract or a contract with a subcontractor to supply goods, services, or materials pursuant to this Contract , Contractor and any subcontractor will be deemed to have offered and agreed to assign to City all rights, title, and interest in and to all causes of action it may have under Section 4 of the Clayton Act (15 U.S.C. Sec. 15) or under the Cartwright Act (Chapter 2, commencing with Section 16700 of Part 2 of Division 7 of the California Business and Professions Code), arising from purchases of goods, services, or materials for the Work. This assignment will be deemed made and will become effective at the time City tenders final payment to Contractor, without further acknowledgement by the Parties.
Section 11. Independent Contractor .
Contractor is and will at all times remain as to City a wholly independent contractor.
Neither City nor any of its officers, employees, or agents will have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, agents or subcontractors, except as expressly set forth in the Contract Documents.
Contractor may not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its
4825-3386-1219 v2 B-6 CC Agreement No. 2025-8
officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors are in any manner officers, employees, agents or subcontractors of City.
Section 12. Indemnification.
12.1 Contractor agrees to the fullest extent permitted by law to (1) immediately defend and (2) indemnify City from and against, any and all claims and liabilities, regardless of the nature or type, that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Contractor, or its officers, employees, agents, or subcontractors committed in performing any Work under this Contract or the failure to comply with any of the obligations of this Contract (collectively, “Claims”). The Claims subject to Contractor’s duties to defend and indemnify include, without limitation, all claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings, suits, losses, damages, penalties, fines, judgments, liens, levies, and associated investigation and administrative expenses. Such Claims also include defense costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, expert fees, court costs, and costs of alternative dispute resolution.
12.2 Contractor’s duty to defend is a separate and distinct obligation from Contractor’s duty to indemnify. Contractor is obligated to defend City in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special proceedings, with counsel approved by City, immediately upon tender to Contractor of the Claim in any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Contractor are responsible for the Claim does not relieve Contractor from its separate and distinct obligation to defend under this section. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment, including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Contractor asserts that liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of any City indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused by the comparative active negligence or willful misconduct of any City indemnified party, then Contractor may submit a claim to City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of the City indemnified party.
12.3 Contractor agrees that its defense and indemnification obligation under this section, includes the reasonable costs of attorneys’ fees incurred by the City Attorney’s office to monitor and consult with Contractor regarding the defense of any Claims, including providing direction with regard to strategy, preparation of pleadings, settlement discussions, and attendance at court hearings, mediations, or other litigation related appearances. City will use its best efforts to avoid duplicative attorney work or appearances in order to keep defense costs to a reasonable minimum.
12.4 Contractor agrees that settlement of any Claim will require the consent of City.
City agrees that its consent will not be unreasonably withheld provided that Contractor is financially able (based on demonstrated assets) to fulfill its obligation to indemnify City for the costs of any such settlement as required under this Contract.
12.5 Contractor’s obligation to indemnify City applies unless it is finally adjudicated that the liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a City indemnified party. If a Claim is finally adjudicated and a
4825-3386-1219 v2 B-7 CC Agreement No. 2025-8
determination made that liability was caused by the sole active negligence or sole willful misconduct of a City indemnified party, then Contractor’s indemnification obligation will be reduced in proportion to the established comparative liability.
12.6 For the purposes of this section, “City” includes City’s officers, officials, employees and agents.
12.7 The provisions of this section will surv ive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

ere must be no cross-liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another.
Liabilit
y policies must be endorsed to name the City of Camarillo its offici als, employees and agents as “additional insureds” under the insurance coverage.
The policy must state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other insurance th
at may be carried by City will be deemed “excess” to that of Contractor. This endorsement must be reflected on
ISO Form No. CG 20 01 or equivalent form as
determined by City.
Coverage must be applicable to City f
or injury to employees of Contractor, subcontractors,
agents or others performing any part of the Work required under this Contract. Each policy must be endorsed to pro

3. Pollution liability; or
4. Contractual
liability.

licy must be on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form

isfied by a non-owned auto endorsement to the general li ability policy descri

each such person.

5. Other Insurance; Revisions to Insurance. Contractor may be required to obtain such other insurance coverage as may be required by applicable law or by City. City reserves the right at any time during the term of the Contract to change the amounts and types of insurance required by giving Contractor 60 days advance written notice of such change.
If such change results in substantial additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may renegotiate Contractor’s compensation.
6. Acceptable Insurers. All required insurance policies must be issued by an insurance company currently authorized by the California Insurance Commissioner to transact the business of insurance in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders’ Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in accordance with the latest edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide, unless otherwise approved by the City’s Risk Manager.
