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.

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 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

4825-3386-1219 v2 CC Agreement No. 2025-30
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 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.

Workers’ Compensation Statutory Requirements

2. Commercial General Liability Insurance. This policy must meet or exceed the requirements of Insurance Services Office (ISO) CGL Form No. CG 00 01. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. The insurance must be on an “occurrence” not a “claims-made” basis. Defense costs must be paid in addition to limits. There must be no cross-liability exclusion for claims or suits by one insured against another.

Liability policies must be endorsed to name the City of Camarillo its officials, employees and agents as “ additional insureds ” under the insurance coverage. An Additional Insured Endorsement page must be provided.

The policy must state that such insurance will be deemed “primary” such that any other insurance that 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. A Primary and Noncontributory Endorsement page must be provided.

Coverage must be applicable to City for 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 provide a separate limit applicable to this Project.

The Commercial General Liability policy must not contain any endorsements limiting coverage beyond the basic policy coverage for any of the following:

1. Explosion, collapse or underground hazard (XCU);

2. Products and completed operation;

3. Pollution liability; or

4. Contractual liability.

3. Business Auto Coverage. This policy must be on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 including symbol 1 (Any Auto) and Endorsement CA 0025, or equivalent forms approved in writing by City.

4. Workers Compensation. Contractor must have a State of California approved policy form providing the statutory benefits required by law with employer’s liability limits or Contractor must provide evidence of an approved self-insurance program.

4825-3386-1219 v2 C-2

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.
7, Excess or Umbrella Liability Insurance (Over Primary). If an excess or umbrella liability policy is used to meet limit requirements, the insurance must provide coverage at least as broad as specified for the underlying coverages. Any such coverage provided under an excess or umbrella liability policy must include a “drop-down provision” providing primary coverage above a maximum $25,000 self-insured retention for liability not covered by primary but covered by the umbrella. Coverage must be provided on a “pay-on-behalf” basis, with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There may be no cross- liability exclusion precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another.

Coverage must be applicable to City for injury to employees of Contractor, its subcontractors or others performing work to satisfy Contractor’s obligations under this Contract. The scope of coverage provided is subject to approval of City following receipt of proof of insurance as required herein.

8. Certificates of Insurance and Endorsements . Prior to commencing any Work under this Contract, Contractor must file with the City Certificates of Insurance and Endorsements evidencing the existence of all insurance required by this Contract, along with such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may reasonably be required by City.

Contractor must maintain current certificates and endorsements on file with City during the term of this Contract reflecting the existence of all required insurance.

Each of the certificates must expressly provide that no material change in the policy, or termination thereof, will be effective except upon 30 days’ prior written notice to City.

9. Failure to Maintain Required Insurance . If Contractor, for any reason, fails to have in place at all times during the term of this Contract all of the required insurance coverage, City may, in addition to any other available remedies, (a) obtain such coverage at Contractor’s expense and deduct the cost from the sums due Contractor, (b) make a claim against the Contractor’s surety, or (c) terminate the Contract.

10. Effect of Coverage . The existence of the required insurance coverage under this Contract will not be deemed to satisfy or limit Contractor’s indemnity obligations under this Contract.

11. Higher Limits of Insurance. If Contractor maintains higher limits of insurance than the required amounts shown in Section 1 above, then such amounts will be the minimum required under this Agreement.
