Attachment A Revised 12/4/13 d. All policies, except the Worker's Compensation Policies, shall insure the defense and indemnify obligations assumed by Consultant under this Agreement; and e. All policies shall contain a provision that coverages afforded thereunder shall not be canceled or non - renewed or restrictive modifications added, without thirty (30) days prior written notice to the City. A copy of the Consultant's insurance declaration page, Rider and /or Endorsement, as applicable, which evidences the compliance with this Paragraph 18, must be filed with City prior to the start of Consultant's Work. Such documents evidencing insurance shall be in a form acceptable to City and shall provide satisfactory evidence that Consultant has complied with all insurance requirements. Renewal certificates shall be provided to City prior to the expiration date of any of the required policies. City will not be obligated, however, to review such declaration page, Rider, Endorsement or certificates or other evidence of insurance, or to advise Consultant of any deficiencies in such documents and receipt thereof shall not relieve Consultant from, nor be deemed a waiver of, City's right to enforce the terms of Consultant's obligations hereunder. City reserves the right to examine any policy provided for under this Provision 18. E. If Consultant fails to provide the insurance coverage specified herein, the Consultant will defend, indemnify and hold harmless the City, the City's officials, agents and employees from any loss, claim, liability and expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses of litigation) to the extent necessary to afford the same protection as would have been provided by the specified insurance. Except to the extent prohibited by law, this indemnity applies regardless of any strict liability or negligence attributable to the City (including sole negligence) and regardless of the extent to which the underlying occurrence (i.e., the event giving rise to a claim which would have been covered by the specified insurance) is attributable to the negligent or otherwise wrongful act or omission (including breach of contract) of Consultant, its contractors, subcontractors, agents, employees or delegates. Consultant agrees that this indemnity shall be construed and applied in favor of indemnification. Consultant also agrees that if applicable law limits or precludes any aspect of this indemnity, then the indemnity will be considered limited only to the extent necessary to comply with that applicable law. The stated indemnity continues until all applicable statutes of limitation have run. If a claim arises within the scope of the stated indemnity, the City may require Consultant to: a. Furnish and pay for a surety bond, satisfactory to the City, guaranteeing performance of the indemnity obligation; or b. Furnish a written acceptance of tender of defense and indemnity from Consultant's insurance company.
