It is agreed between the parties
that this reimbursemen t provision assures Contractor is not obligated to defend or indemnify City in an amount greater than provided for under California law, including, without limitation, California Civil C ode sections 2782, 2782.6, and 2782.8.
With the exception that this section sh all in no event be construed to require indemnification by Contractor to a greater extent than pe rmitted under the public policy of the State of California, and in addition to the other i ndemnity obligations in this Agreement, Contractor shall indemnify, de fend, and hold harmle ss City, its Mayor, Council, officials, representatives, agents , employees, and volunt eers from and against all claims, losses, expenses, and costs includi ng, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, EXHIBIT 2

arising out of any claim br ought against the City by an employee, office, agent, or volunteer of Contractor, r egardless of whether such claim may be covered by any applicable workers compensation insurance. Contractor’s indemnification obligation is not limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for the Contractor under workers’ compensation acts, disability acts, or other employee benefit acts.
The City’s acceptance of the insurance certif icates required under this Agreement does not relieve the CONTRACTOR from its obligation under this paragraph. The indemnification obligations of this section shall survive the termination of this agreement.

If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this indemnification is for any reason held to be invalid or unconsti tutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this indemnification.
