(b) Defense and Indemnity of Third Party Claims/Liability. To the maximum extent allowed by law, Consultant shall indemnify, defend with legal counsel approved by City, and hold harmless City, its officers, officials, agents, employees and volunteers from and against all liability including, but not limited to, loss, damage, expense, cost (including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation) of every nature arising out of or in connection with Consultant’s negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct in the performance of work hereunder or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in the Agreement, except such loss or damage which is caused by the sole or active negligence or willful misconduct of City. Should conflict of interest principles preclude a single legal counsel from representing both City and Consultant, or should City otherwise find Consultant’s legal counsel unacceptable, then Consultant shall reimburse City its costs of defense, including without limitation reasonable legal counsel fees, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation. The Consultant shall promptly pay City any final judgment rendered against City (and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers) with respect to claims determined by a trier of fact to have been the result of Consultant’s negligent, reckless or wrongful performance. It is expressly understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of California and will survive termination of this Agreement.
Consultant’s obligations under this section apply regardless of whether or not such claim, charge, damage, demand, action, proceeding, loss, stop notice, cost, expense, judgment, civil fine or penalty, or liability was caused in part or contributed to by an Indemnitee. However, without affecting the rights of City under any provision of this Agreement, Consultant shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless City for liability attributable to the active negligence of City, provided such active negligence is determined by agreement between the parties or by findings of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(c) Nonwaiver. City does not waive, nor shall be deemed to have waived, any indemnity, defense or hold harmless rights under this section because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit with City, of any insurance certificates or policies described in Section 9.
9. MINIMUM SCOPE AND LIMIT OF INSURANCE

Umbrella or excess policies shall provide coverage at least as broad as specified for underlying coverages and covering those insured in the underlying policies. Coverage shall be “pay on behalf” with defense costs payable in addition to policy limits. There shall be no cross-liability exclusion of claims or suits by one insured against the other. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and no-contributory basis for the benefit of City as required in written contract or agreement before City’s own insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.

If such change results in substantial additional cost to Consultant, City and Consultant may renegotiate Consultant's compensation.
Primary and Non-Contributory Coverage
For any claims related to this Agreement, Consultant's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as respects City, its elected officials, officers, agents, employees and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers shall be excess of Consultant's insurance and shall not contribute with it and shall be at least as broad as CG 20 01 04 13.

Waiver of Subrogation

Verification of Coverage
Consultant shall provide City with copies of certificates (on City certificate form or an Accord form as modified per City direction) for all policies, with the appropriate named additional insured coverage and an endorsement that they are not subject to cancellation without 30 days prior written notice to City. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by City before work commences.
However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive Consultant's obligation to provide them. City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements required by these specifications, at any time.
Subcontractors
Consultant shall require and verify that all subcontractors/subconsultants provide and maintain, at their own expense, insurance that meets all industry standard requirements and applicable regulations. Consultant shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from subcontractors/subconsultants.
