4. INDEMNITY AND HOLD HARMLESS. With the exception that this section shall in no event be construed to require indemnification by Contractor to a greater extent than permitted under the public policy of the State of California, Contractor shall indemnify, protect, defend with counsel approved by City and at Contractor’s sole cost and expense, and hold harmless the City of Stockton, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers from and against any and all claims, causes of action, liabilities, judgments, awards, losses, liens, claims, stop notices, damages, expenses, and costs (including without limitation attorneys’ fees, expert and consultant fees, and other expenses of litigation) of every nature, including, but not limited to, death or injury to persons, or damage to property, which arise out of or are in any way connected with the work performed, materials furnished, or services provided under this Agreement, or from any violation of any federal, S tate, or municipal law or ordinance, or City Policy, by Contractor or Contractor’s officers, agents, employees, volunteers or subcontractors. Contractor shall not be obligated to indemnify or defend City for claims finally determined by a court of law or arbitrator to arise from the active negligence or willful misconduct of the City. It is the intent of the Parties that this indemnity obligation is at least as broad as is permitted under California law. To the extent California Civil Code sections 2782, et seq., limit the defense or indemnity obligations of Contractor to City, the intent hereunder is to provide the maximum defense and indemnity obligations allowed by Contractor under the law.

The indemnity set forth in this section shall not be limited by insurance requirements or by any other provision of this Agreement.

With ex
ception that this section shall in no event be construed to require indemnification, including the duty to defend, by Contractor to a greater extent than permitted under the public policy of the State of California, the parties agree that Contractor’s duty to defend City is immediate and arises upon the filing of any claim against the City for damages which arise out of or are in any way connected with the work performed, materials furnished, or services provided under this Agreement by Contractor or Contractor’s officers, agents, employees, volunteers or subcontractors. Contractor’s duties and obligations to defend the City shall apply regardless of whether or not the issue of the City’s liability, breach of this Agreement, or other obligation or fault has been determined.

Contractor shall be immediately obligated to pay for City’s defense costs of the claim, including, but not limited to, court costs, attorney’s fees and costs, expert consultant and witness fees and costs, other witness fees, document reproduction costs, arbitration fees, and, if after final judgment an appeal is pursued, all of such costs for the appeal.

At the conclusion of the claim, if there is any determination or finding of sole ac tive negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the City, City will then reimburse Contractor for amounts paid in excess of Contractor’s proportionate share of responsibility for the damages within 30 days after Contractor provides City with copies of all bills and expenses incurred in the defense of the claim(s). It is agreed between the parties that this reimbursement 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 Code sections 2782, 2782.6, and 2782.8.

With the ex
ception that this section shall in no event be construed to require indemnification by Contractor to a greater extent than permitted under the public policy of the State of California, and in addition to the other indemnity obligations in this Agreement, Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City of Stockton,

EXHIBIT 2

Page 3 of 38 ends

its officers, officials, employees , and volunteers from and against all claims, losses, expenses, and costs including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, arising out of any claim brought against the City by an employee, office, agent, or volunteer of Contractor, regardless 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 C
ity’s acceptance of the insurance certificates 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.

Any exceptions to this language may result in a proposal being deemed non-responsive.

CONTRACTOR/Subcontractor's responsibility for such defense and indemnity obligations shall survive the termination or completion of this agreement for the full period of time allowed by law.

The def
ense and indemnification obligations of this agreement are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this agreement. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this indemnification is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this indemnification.
