federal bankruptcy laws, or any bankruptcy petition or petition for receiver commenced
by a third party against CONSULTANT; (ii) 7 calendar days prior written notice with or
without cause by CITY to CONSULTANT; (iii) CITY'S non -appropriation of funds sufficient
to meet its obligations hereunder during any CITY fiscal year of this Agreement, or

satisfactorily perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, CITY may withhold
an amount that would otherwise be payable as an offset to, but not in excess of, CITY'S
damages caused by such failure. In no event shall any payment by CITY pursuant to this
Agreement constitute a waiver by CITY of any breach of this Agreement which may then

(1) exercise any right, remedy (in contract, law or equity), or privilege which may be available
to it under applicable laws of the State of California or any other applicable law; (ii) proceed
by appropriate court action to enforce the terms of the Agreement; and/or (iii) recover all
direct, indirect, consequential, economic and incidental damages for the breach of the
Agreement. If it is determined that CITY improperly terminated this Agreement for default, such

of future performance, upon Administrator's request, in the event CONSULTANT fails to
comply with any terms or conditions of this Agreement.

caused by an occurrence beyond the reasonable control of CONSULTANT and without
its fault or negligence such as, acts of God or the public enemy, acts of CITY in its
contractual capacity, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, unusually
severe weather, and delays of common carriers. CONSULTANT shall notify Administrator

setting forth the full particulars in connection therewith, and shall remedy such occurrence with all
reasonable dispatch, and shall promptly give written notice to Administrator of the cessation of
such occurrence.
5. Confidential Information and Ownership of Documents.
(a) Any reports, information, or other data prepared or assembled by
CONSULTANT pursuant to this Agreement shall not be made available to any individual
or organization by CONSULTANT without the prior written approval of the Administrator.
During the term of this Agreement, and thereafter, CONSULTANT shall not, without the
prior written consent of CITY, disclose to anyone any Confidential Information. The term
Confidential Information for the purposes of this Agreement shall include all proprietary
and confidential information of CITY, including but not limited to business plans, marketing
plans, financial information, materials, compilations, documents, instruments, models,
source or object codes and other information disclosed or submitted, orally, in writing, or
by any other medium or media. All Confidential Information shall be and remain
confidential and proprietary in CITY.

to be performed under this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall cause each subcontractor to
also comply with the requirements of this Section 5.
(d) This Section 5 shall survive expiration or termination of this

6. Professional Skill. It is further mutually understood and agreed by and
between the parties hereto that inasmuch as CONSULTANT represents to CITY that
CONSULTANT and its subcontractors, if any, are skilled in the profession and shall
perform in accordance with the standards of said profession necessary to perform the
services agreed to be done by it under this Agreement, CITY relies upon the skill of
CONSULTANT and any subcontractors to do and perform such services in a skillful
manner and CONSULTANT agrees to thus perform the services and require the same of
any subcontractors. Therefore, any acceptance of such services by CITY shall not
operate as a release of CONSULTANT or any subcontractors from said professional
standards.
7. Indemnification. To the furthest extent allowed by law, CONSULTANT shall
indemnify, hold harmless and defend CITY and each of its officers, officials, employees,
agents, and volunteers from any and all loss, liability, fines, penalties, forfeitures, costs
and damages (whether in contract, tort or strict liability, including but not limited to
personal injury, death at any time and property damage), and from any and all claims,
demands and actions in law or equity (including reasonable attorney's fees, litigation
expenses and costs to enforce this agreement) that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to
the negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its principals,
officers, employees, agents, or volunteers in the performance of this Agreement.
If CONSULTANT should subcontract all or any portion of the services to be
-3-
performed under this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall require each subcontractor to
indemnify, hold harmless and defend CITY and each of its officers, officials, employees,
agents, and volunteers in accordance with the terms of the preceding paragraph.
This section shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
8. Insurance.
(a) Throughout the life of this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall pay for
and maintain in full force and effect all insurance as required in Exhibit B, which is
incorporated into and part of this Agreement, with an insurance company(ies) either
(i) admitted by the California Insurance Commissioner to do business in the State of
California and rated no less than "A-VII" in the Best's Insurance Rating Guide, or (ii) as
may be authorized in writing by CITY'S Risk Manager or designee at any time and in its
sole discretion. The required policies of insurance as stated in Exhibit B shall maintain
limits of liability of not less than those amounts stated therein. However, the insurance
limits available to CITY, its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers as
additional insureds, shall be the greater of the minimum limits specified therein or the full
limit of any insurance proceeds to the named insured.
(b) If at any time during the life of the Agreement or any extension,
CONSULTANT or any of its subcontractors/sub-consultants fail to maintain any required
insurance in full force and effect, all services and work under this Agreement shall be
discontinued immediately, and all payments due or that become due to CONSULTANT
shall be withheld until notice is received by CITY that the required insurance has been
restored to full force and effect and that the premiums therefore have been paid for a
period satisfactory to CITY. Any failure to maintain the required insurance shall be
sufficient cause for CITY to terminate this Agreement. No action taken by CITY pursuant
to this section shall in any way relieve CONSULTANT of its responsibilities under this
Agreement. The phrase "fail to maintain any required insurance" shall include, without
limitation, notification received by CITY that an insurer has commenced proceedings, or
has had proceedings commenced against it, indicating that the insurer is insolvent.
(c) The fact that insurance is obtained by CONSULTANT shall not be
deemed to release or diminish the liability of CONSULTANT, including, without limitation,
liability under the indemnity provisions of this Agreement. The duty to indemnify CITY
shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are
applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification
to be provided by CONSULTANT. Approval or purchase of any insurance contracts or
policies shall in no way relieve from liability nor limit the liability of CONSULTANT, its
principals, officers, agents, employees, persons under the supervision of CONSULTANT,
vendors, suppliers, invitees, consultants, sub- consultants, subcontractors, or anyone
employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
(d) If CONSULTANT should subcontract all or any portion of the services
to be performed under this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall require each
subcontractor/sub-consultant to provide insurance protection, as an additional insured, to
the CITY and each of its officers, officials, employees, agents, and volunteers in
accordance with the terms of this section, except that any required certificates and
applicable endorsements shall be on file with CONSULTANT and CITY prior to the
commencement of any services by the subcontractor. CONSULTANT and any subcontractor/sub-
consultant shall establish additional insured status for CITY, its officers, officials, employees,
agents, and volunteers by using Insurance Service Office (ISO) form CG 20 10 11 85 or CG 20
ME
26 04 13 or by an executed manuscript company endorsement providing additional insured status
as broad as that contained in ISO Form CG 20 10 11 85.

(a) Prior to CITY'S execution of this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall
complete a City of Fresno conflict of interest disclosure statement in the form as set forth
in Exhibit C. During the term of this Agreement, CONSULTANT shall have the obligation
and duty to immediately notify CITY in writing of any change to the information provided
by CONSULTANT in such statement.
(b) CONSULTANT shall comply, and require its subcontractors to
comply, with all applicable (i) professional canons and requirements governing avoidance
of impermissible client conflicts; and (ii) federal, state and local conflict of interest laws
and regulations including, without limitation, California Government Code Section 1090
et. seq., the California Political Reform Act (California Government Code Section 87100
et. seq.) and the regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission concerning
disclosure and disqualification (2 California Code of Regulations Section 18700 et. seq.).
At any time, upon written request of CITY, CONSULTANT shall provide a written opinion
of its legal counsel and that of any subcontractor that, after a due diligent inquiry,
CONSULTANT and the respective subcontractor(s) are in full compliance with all laws
and regulations. CONSULTANT shall take, and require its subcontractors to take,
reasonable steps to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. Upon discovery of any
facts giving rise to the appearance of a conflict of interest, CONSULTANT shall
immediately notify CITY of these facts in writing.

CONSULTANT shall not employ or retain the services of any person while such person

committee, or similar CITY body. This requirement may be waived in writing by the City
Manager, if no actual or potential conflict is involved.

agreed to pay any compensation, contingent or otherwise, direct or indirect, to solicit or
procure this Agreement or any rights/benefits hereunder.

Project unless fully disclosed to and approved by the City Manager, in advance and in
writing. CONSULTANT and any of its subcontractors shall have no interest, direct or
indirect, in any other contract with a third party in connection with this Project unless such
