and agents) should, to the maximum extent permitted by law, be fully protected from any
loss, injury, damage, claim, lawsuit, cost, expense, attorneys fees, litigation costs, defense
costs, court costs or any other cost arising out of or in any way related to the performance of
this agreement. Accordingly, the provisions of this indemnity provision are intended by the
parties to be interpreted and construed to provide the fullest protection possible under the
law to the City. PROMOTER acknowledges that City would not permit the EVENT described
herein in the absence of this commitment from PROMOTER to indemnify and protect City as
set forth here.
To the full extent permitted by law, PROMOTER shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless
City, its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers from all loss, cost, and expense arising
out of any liability or claim of liability for personal injury, bodily injury to persons, contractual
liability and damage to property sustained or claimed to have been sustained arising out of
activities of the PROMOTER or those of any of its officers, agents, or employees, whether

such act is authorized by this Agreement or not; and PROMOTER shall pay for any and all
damage to the property of the City, or loss or theft of such property, done or caused by such
persons. City assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any property placed on the premises.
PROMOTER further agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against City. The provisions of
this Section do not apply to any damage or loss caused solely by the negligence of the City
or any of its agents or employees.
In the event PROMOTER fails to obtain such indemnity obligations from others as required
here, PROMOTER agrees to be fully responsible according to the terms of this section.
Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements imposes no additional
obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of any rights hereunder. This obligation
to indemnify and defend City as set forth herein is binding on the successors, assigns, or
heirs of PROMOTER and shall survive the termination of this Agreement or this section.
6.2 INSPECTION or RECORDS. CITY shall have the right to monitor and inspect
all work or records under this Agreement.
6.3 COMPLETE AGREEMENT. This Agreement contains all the terms and
conditions agreed upon by the parties. No other understandings, oral or otherwise, regarding
the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed to exist or to bind any of the parties
hereto. This Agreement supersedes all previous agreements, if any, between the parties.
6.4 AMENDMENTS. Any alterations, variations, modifications or waivers of
provisions to this Agreement shall be valid only when reduced to writing duly signed and
attached to the original of this Agreement.

6.7 COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. PROMOTER shall comply with all applicable
federal, state, and local laws, ordinances and regulations.
6.8 STANDARD OF CARE. CITY relies upon the professional ability of
PROMOTER as a material inducement to entering into this Agreement. PROMOTER agrees
to use reasonable care and diligence in rendering services under this Agreement.
PROMOTER agrees that the acceptance of its work by CITY shall not operate as a waiver or
release of said obligation of PROMOTER. The absence, omission, or failure to include items
in this Agreement which are normally considered to be a part of generally accepted
professional procedure or which involve professional judgment shall not be used as a basis
for submission of inadequate work or incomplete performance.
6.9 DEMAND FOR ASSURANCE. Each party to this Agreement undertakes the
obligation that the other's expectation of receiving due performance will not be impaired.
When reasonable grounds for insecurity arise with respect to the performance of either party,
the other may in writing demand adequate assurance of due performance and until he/she
receives such assurance may, if commercially reasonable, suspend any performance for
which the agreed return has not been received. "Commercially reasonable" includes not only
the conduct of a party with respect to performance under this Agreement but also conduct
with respect to other agreements with parties to this Agreement or others. After receipt of a
justified demand, failure to provide within a reasonable time, but not exceeding ten (10)
days, such assurance of due performance as is adequate under the circumstances of the
particular case is a repudiation of this Agreement. Acceptance of any improper delivery,
service, or payment does not prejudice the aggrieved party's right to demand adequate
assurance of future performance.
6.10 THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be
construed to create and the parties do not intend to create any rights in third parties.
