The following provisions shall apply to the insurance policies required of Contractor under this Agreement: A. For any claims related to this Agreement, Contractor’s coverage shall be primary insurance with respect to the City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. Any insurance or self-insurance maintained by the City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers shall be in excess of Contractor’s insurance and shall not contribute with it. B. Any failure to comply with reporting or other provisions of the policies, including breaches of warranties, shall not affect coverage provided to City and its officers, council members, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers. C. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 8 applicable to this Agreement are intended to apply to each insured, including additional insureds, against whom a claim is made or suit is brought to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations shall limit the application of such insurance coverage. D. No required insurance coverages may include any limiting endorsement which substantially impairs the coverages set forth in this Agreement (e.g., elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period), unless the endorsement has first been submitted to the City Manager and approved in writing. E. Contractor agrees to require its insurer to modify insurance endorsements to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply with the requirements of the endorsements. Certificates of insurance will not be accepted in lieu of required endorsements, and submittal of certificates without required endorsements may delay commencement of the Project. It is Contractor’s obligation to ensure timely compliance with all insurance submittal requirements as provided in this Agreement. F. Contractor agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other parties involved with the Project who are brought onto or involved in the Project by Contractor, provide the same minimum insurance coverage required of Contractor. Contractor agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the requirements of this section. Contractor agrees that upon request, all agreements with subcontractors and others engaged in the Project will be submitted to the City for review. G. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of the City to inform Contractor of non-compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional obligations on the City nor does it waive any rights in this or any other regard. H. Contractor shall provide proof that policies of insurance required in this Agreement, expiring during the term of this Agreement, have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered shall be submitted prior to expiration. Endorsements as required in this Agreement applicable to the renewing or new coverage shall be provided to City no later than ten (10) days prior to expiration of the lapsing coverage. I. Requirements of specific insurance coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as limitations on coverage, limits, or other requirements, or as a waiver of any coverage normally provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be limiting or all-inclusive. J. The requirements in this section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impair the provisions of this section. K. Contractor agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Contractor arising out of the Work performed under this Agreement and for any other claim or loss which may reduce the insurance available to pay claims arising out of this Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 9 Agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City, or to reduce or dilute insurance available for payment of potential claims. L. Contractor agrees that the provisions of this section shall not be construed as limiting in any way the extent to which the Contractor may be held responsible for the payment of damages resulting from the Contractor’s activities or the activities of any person or person for which the Contractor is otherwise responsible. 5.4 Sufficiency of Insurers. Insurance required in this Agreement shall be provided by authorized insurers in good standing with the State of California. Coverage shall be provided by insurers admitted in the State of California with an A.M. Best’s Key Rating of B++, Class VII, or better, unless such requirements are waived in writing by the City Manager or his designee due to unique circumstances. 5.5 Verification of Coverage. Contractor shall furnish City with both certificates of insurance and endorsements, including additional insured endorsements, affecting all of the coverages required by this Agreement. The certificates and endorsements are to be signed by a person authorized by that insurer to bind coverage on its behalf. All proof of insurance is to be received and approved by the City before work commences. City reserves the right to require Contractor’s insurers to provide complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies at any time. Additional insured endorsements are not required for Errors and Omissions and Workers’ Compensation policies. Verification of Insurance coverage may be provided by: (1) an approved General and/or Auto Liability Endorsement Form for the City of Palm Springs or (2) an acceptable Certificate of Liability Insurance Coverage with an approved Additional Insured Endorsement with the following endorsements stated on the certificate: A. "The City of Palm Springs, its officials, employees, and agents are named as an additional insured…” ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement). B. "This insurance is primary and non-contributory over any insurance or self- insurance the City may have..." ("as respects City of Palm Springs Contract No.___" or "for any and all work performed with the City" may be included in this statement). C. "Should any of the above described policies be canceled before the expiration date thereof, the issuing company will mail 30 days written notice to the Certificate Holder named." Language such as, “endeavor to” mail and "but failure to mail such notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its agents or representative" is not acceptable and must be crossed out. D. Both the Workers’ Compensation and Employers' Liability policies shall contain the insurer's waiver of subrogation in favor of City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers. In addition to the endorsements listed above, the City of Palm Springs shall be named the certificate holder on the policies. All certificates of insurance and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. All certificates of insurance must be authorized by a person with authority to bind coverage, whether that is the authorized Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 10 agent/broker or insurance underwriter. Failure to obtain the required documents prior to the commencement of work shall not waive the Contractor’s obligation to provide them. 6. INDEMNIFICATION 6.1 Indemnification and Reimbursement. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall defend (at Contractor’s sole cost and expense), indemnify, protect, and hold harmless City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all liabilities, actions, suits, claims, demands, losses, costs, judgments, arbitration awards, settlements, damages, demands, orders, penalties, and expenses including legal costs and attorney fees (collectively “Claims”), including but not limited to Claims arising from injuries to or death of persons (Contractor’s employees included), for damage to property, including property owned by City, for any violation of any federal, state, or local law or ordinance or in any manner arising out of, pertaining to, or incident to any acts, errors or omissions, or willful misconduct committed by Contractor, its officers, employees, representatives, and agents, that arise out of or relate to Contractor’s performance of Services or this Agreement. This indemnification clause excludes Claims arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to limit Contractor’s indemnification obligation or other liability under this Agreement. Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until all actions against the Indemnified Parties for such matters indemnified are fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations or, if an action is timely filed, until such action is final. 6.2 Design Contract Services Indemnification and Reimbursement. If Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Contractor’s performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8), then, and only to the extent required by Civil Code section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated herein, Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to the extent which the Claims arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor in the performance of the Services or this Agreement, and, upon Contractor obtaining a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction, Contractor’s liability for such claim, including the cost to defend, shall not exceed the Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault. 7.

Contractor shall periodically prepare and submit to the Contract Officer such reports concerning the performance of the Services required by this Agreement, or as the Contract Officer shall require. Contractor acknowledges that the City is greatly concerned about the cost of the Work to be performed under this Agreement. For this reason, Contractor agrees that Contractor shall promptly notify the Contract Officer the estimated increased or decreased cost if Contractor becomes aware of any facts, circumstances, techniques, or events that may or Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 11 will materially increase or decrease the cost of the Services.

All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents, memoranda, correspondence, computations, and other materials prepared by Contractor, its employees, subcontractors, and agents in the performance of this Agreement shall be the property of City and shall be promptly delivered to City upon request of the Contract Officer or upon the termination of this Agreement. Contractor shall have no claim for further employment or additional compensation as a result of the exercise by City of its full rights of ownership of the documents and materials. Any use of such completed documents for other projects and/or use of incomplete documents without specific written authorization by the Contractor will be at the City's sole risk and without liability to Contractor, and the City shall indemnify the Contractor for all resulting damages. Contractor may retain copies of such documents for their own use. Contractor shall have an unrestricted right to use the concepts embodied tin this Agreement. Contractor shall ensure that all its subcontractors shall provide for assignment to City of any documents or materials prepared by them. In the event Contractor fails to secure such assignment, Contractor shall indemnify City for all resulting damages. 7.4 Release of Documents. All drawings, specifications, reports, records, documents, and other materials prepared by Contractor in the performance of Services under this Agreement shall not be released publicly without the prior written approval of the Contract Officer. All information gained by Contractor in the performance of this Agreement shall be considered confidential and shall not be released by Contractor without City’s prior written authorization. 7.5 Audit and Inspection of Records. After receipt of reasonable notice and during the regular business hours of City, Contractor shall provide City, or other agents of City, such access to Contractor’s books, records, payroll documents, and facilities as City deems necessary to examine, copy, audit, and inspect all accounting books, records, work data, documents, and activities directly related to Contractor’s performance under this Agreement. Contractor shall maintain such books, records, data, and documents in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and shall clearly identify and make such items readily accessible to such parties during the term of this Agreement and for a period of three (3) years from the date of final payment by City hereunder. 8. ENFORCEMENT OF AGREEMENT 8.1 California Law and Venue. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted both as to validity and as to performance of the Parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California, or any other appropriate court in such County, and Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. 8.2 Interpretation. This Agreement shall be construed as a whole according to its fair language and common meaning to achieve the objectives and purposes of the Parties. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the Parties. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting party, shall not be employed in the Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 12 interpretation of this Agreement. The caption headings of the various sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are for convenience and identification purposes only and shall not be deemed to limit, expand, or define the contents of the respective sections or paragraphs. 8.3 Default of Contractor. Contractor’s failure to comply with any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a default. A. If the City Manager, or his designee, determines that Contractor is in default in the performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, he/she shall notify Contractor in writing of such default. Contractor shall have ten (10) days, or such longer period as City may designate, to cure the default by rendering satisfactory performance. In the event Contractor fails to cure its default within such period of time, City shall have the right, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to terminate this Agreement without further notice and without prejudice of any remedy to which City may be entitled at law, in equity, or under this Agreement. Contractor shall be liable for all reasonable costs incurred by City as a result of such default. Compliance with the provisions of this section shall not constitute a waiver of any City right to take legal action in the event that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing shall limit City’s right to terminate this Agreement without cause under Section 3.2. B. If termination is due to the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the provisions of Section 8.3(A), take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or otherwise. The Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the Services required hereunder exceeds the Maximum Contract Amount (provided that the City shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages). The City may withhold any payments to the Contractor for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously stated. The withholding or failure to withhold payments to Contractor shall not limit Contractor’s liability for completion of the Services as provided in this Agreement. 8.4 Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of the Party against whom enforcement of a waiver is sought. Any waiver by the Parties of any default or breach of any covenant, condition, or term contained in this Agreement, shall not be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent or other default or breach, nor shall failure by the Parties to require exact, full, and complete compliance with any of the covenants, conditions, or terms contained in this Agreement be construed as changing the terms of this Agreement in any manner or preventing the Parties from enforcing the full provisions. 8.5 Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the Parties are cumulative and the exercise by either Party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the other Party. 8.6 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either Party may take legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct, remedy or recover damages for any default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. 8.7 Attorney Fees. In the event any dispute between the Parties with respect to this Agreement results in litigation or any non-judicial proceeding, the prevailing Party shall be entitled, Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 13 in addition to such other relief as may be granted, to recover from the non-prevailing Party all reasonable costs and expenses. These include but are not limited to reasonable attorney fees, expert contractor fees, court costs and all fees, costs, and expenses incurred in any appeal or in collection of any judgment entered in such proceeding. 9. CITY OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES: NON-DISCRIMINATION 9.1 Non-liability of City Officers and Employees. No officer or employee of the City shall be personally liable to the Contractor, or any successor-in-interest, in the event of any default or breach by the City or for any amount which may become due to the Contractor or to its successor, or for breach of any obligation of the terms of this Agreement. 9.2 Conflict of Interest. Contractor acknowledges that no officer or employee of the City has or shall have any direct or indirect financial interest in this Agreement nor shall Contractor enter into any agreement of any kind with any such officer or employee during the term of this Agreement and for one (1) year thereafter. Contractor warrants that Contractor has not paid or given, and will not pay or give, any third party any money or other consideration in exchange for obtaining this Agreement. 9.3 Covenant Against Discrimination. In connection with its performance under this Agreement, Contractor shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of actual or perceived race, religion, color, sex, age, marital status, ancestry, national origin ( i.e., place of origin, immigration status, cultural or linguistic characteristics, or ethnicity), sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, physical or mental disability, or medical condition (each a “prohibited basis”). Contractor shall ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during their employment, without regard to any prohibited basis. As a condition precedent to City’s lawful capacity to enter this Agreement, and in executing this Agreement, Contractor certifies that its actions and omissions hereunder shall not incorporate any discrimination arising from or related to any prohibited basis in any Contractor activity, including but not limited to the following: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship; and further, that Contractor is in full compliance with the provisions of Palm Springs Municipal Code Section 7.09.040, including without limitation the provision of benefits, relating to non-discrimination in city contracting. 10. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS - INTENTIONALLY OMMITTED 10.1 Patent and Copyright Infringement. To the fullest extent permissible under law, and in lieu of any other warranty by City or Contractor against patent or copyright infringement, statutory or otherwise: A. It is agreed that Contractor shall defend at its expense any claim or suit against City on account of any allegation that any item furnished under this Agreement, or the normal use or sale arising out of the performance of this Agreement, infringes upon any presently existing U.S. letters patent or copyright and Contractor shall pay all costs and damages finally awarded in any such suit or claim, provided that Contractor is promptly notified in writing of the suit or claim and given authority, information and assistance at Contractor’s expense for the defense of same, and provided such suit or claim arises out of, pertains to, or is related to the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of Contractor. However, Contractor will not indemnify City if the suit or claim results from: (1) City's alteration of a deliverable, such that City’s alteration of such deliverable created the infringement upon any presently existing U.S. letters Docusign Envelope ID: 4B694D91-0FEF-491E-86CB-F4615965602E (BB&K 2024) 14 patent or copyright; or (2) the use of a deliverable in combination with other material not provided by Contractor when it is such use in combination which infringes upon an existing U.S. letters patent or copyright. B. Contractor shall have sole control of the defense of any such claim or suit and all negotiations for settlement in the event City fails to cooperate in the defense of any suit or claim, provided, however, that such defense shall be at Contractor’s expense. Contractor shall not be obligated to indemnify City under any settlement that is made without Contractor’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If the use or sale of such item is enjoined as a result of the suit or claim, Contractor, at no expense to City, shall obtain for City the right to use and sell the item, or shall substitute an equivalent item acceptable to City and extend this patent and copyright indemnity thereto. 10.2 Notice. Any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, or communication that either party desires, or is required to give to the other party or any other person shall be in writing. All notices shall be personally delivered, sent by pre-paid First Class U.S. Mail, registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, or delivered or sent by facsimile with attached evidence of completed transmission. All notices shall be deemed received upon the earlier of (i) the date of delivery to the address of the person to receive such notice if delivered personally or by messenger or overnight courier; (ii) five (5) business days after the date of posting by the United States Post Office if by mail; or (iii) when sent if given by facsimile.
