bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or

Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel selected by the City, and hold harmless the City

Consulting Services Agreement between 2012-2013
• City of Dublin and Bay Area Community Services Page 8 of 15
liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury,
bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or
municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct
or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts
for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The
foregoing obligation of Consultant shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to
property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City
or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Consultant or its
employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage
to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and
hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil
Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this
Agreement does not relieve Consultant from liability under this indemnification and hold
harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or
claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply.

Section and that it is a material element of consideration.

an employee of City, Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the
payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of

penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.

federal policy, rule, regulation, law, or ordinance to the contrary, Consultant and
any of its employees, agents, and subcontractors providing services under this
Agreement shall not qualify for or become entitled to, and hereby agree to waive
any and all claims to, any compensation, benefit, or any incident of employment
by City, including but not limited to eligibility to enroll in the California Public

Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT'S RESPONSIBILITIES.
Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel selected by the City, and hold harmless the City
and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses,
liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury,
bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or
municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct
or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts
for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The
foregoing obligation of Consultant shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to
property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City
or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Consultant or its
employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage
to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and

harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or
claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply.

payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of
