and is solely responsible for all payments and taxes required by law. Furthermore, in the

11. INDEMNIFICATION
Claims for other than Professional Liability. Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend, save, and
hold harmless the City of Tigard, its officers, employees, agents, and representatives from all
claims, suits, or actions and all expenses incidental to the investigation and defense thereof, of
whatsoever nature, including intentional acts resulting from or arising out of the activities of
Contractor or its subcontractors, sub-consultants, agents or employees in performance of this
Agreement at both trial and appeal level, whether or not a trial or appeal ever takes place
including any hearing before federal or state administrative agencies. If any aspect of this
indemnity is found to be illegal or invalid for any reason whatsoever, such illegality or invalidity
does not affect the validity of the remainder of this indemnification.
Claims for Professional Liability. Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend, save, and hold
harmless the City of Tigard, its officers, employees, agents, and representatives from all claims,
suits, or actions and all expenses incidental to the investigation and defense thereof, to the
extent arising out of the professional negligent acts, errors or omissions of Contractor or its
subcontractors, sub-consultants, agents or employees in performance of professional services
under this agreement.
12. INSURANCE
Contractor and its subcontractors must maintain insurance acceptable to City in full force and
effect throughout the term of this Agreement. Such insurance must cover risks arising directly
or indirectly out of Contractor’s activities or work hereunder, including the operations of its
subcontractors of any tier.
A. Standard Coverage. The policy or policies of insurance maintained by the Contractor must
provide at least the limits and coverages in Exhibit A of this Agreement. The procuring of
such required insurance will not be construed to limit Contractor’s liability hereunder.
Notwithstanding said insurance, Contractor is obligated for the total amount of any
damage, injury, or loss caused by negligence or neglect connected with this Agreement.
B. Workers’ Compensation. The Contractor, its subcontractors, if any, and all employers
providing work, labor, or materials under this Agreement that are subject employers under
the Oregon Workers' Compensation Law must comply with ORS 656.017, which requires
them to provide workers' compensation coverage that satisfies Oregon law for all their
subject workers. Out-of-state employers must provide Oregon workers' compensation
coverage for their workers who work at a single location within Oregon for more than 30
days in a calendar year. Contractors who perform work without the assistance or labor of
any employee need not obtain workers’ compensation coverage. All non-exempt
employers must provide Employer's Liability Insurance with coverage limits of not less
than $500,000 each accident.
C. Additional Insured Provision. All required insurance policies, other than Workers’
Compensation and Professional Liability, must name the City its officers, employees,
agents, and representatives as additional insureds with respect to this Agreement.
D. Insurance Carrier Rating. Coverages provided by the Contractor must be underwritten by
an insurance company deemed acceptable by the City. All policies of insurance must be
written by companies having an A.M. Best rating of "A-VII" or better, or equivalent. The
City reserves the right to reject all or any insurance carrier(s) with an unacceptable financial
rating.

5 | P a g e
Labor Relations Legal Services 32400033
E. Self-Insurance. The City understands that some contractors may self-insure for business
risks and the City will consider whether such self-insurance is acceptable if it meets the
minimum insurance requirements for the type of coverage required. If Contractor is self-
insured for commercial general liability or automobile liability insurance, Contractor must
provide evidence of such self-insurance. Contractor must provide a Certificate of
Insurance showing evidence of the coverage amounts on a form acceptable to the City.
The City reserves the right in its sole discretion to determine whether self-insurance is
adequate.
Primary Coverage Clarification. The parties agree that Contractor’s coverage is primary to
the extent permitted by law. The parties further agree that other insurance maintained by
the City is excess and not contributory insurance with the insurance required in this
section.
F. Cross-Liability Clause. A cross-liability clause or separation of insureds clause will be
included in the general liability policy required by this Agreement.
G. Certificates of Insurance. As evidence of the insurance coverage required by the
Agreement, Contractor will furnish a Certificate of Insurance to the City. No Agreement
is effective until the required Certificates of Insurance have been received and approved
by the City. The certificate will specify and document all provisions within this Agreement
and include a copy of Additional Insured Endorsement. All certificates, including renewals
are forwarded to: contractspurchasing@tigard-or.gov
13. TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE
At any time and without cause, City has the right in its sole discretion to terminate this
Agreement by giving notice to Contractor. If City terminates this Agreement pursuant to this
paragraph, City will pay Contractor for services rendered to the date of termination.
14. TERMINATION WITH CAUSE
A. City may terminate this Agreement effective upon delivery of written notice to Contractor,
or at such later date as may be established by City, under any of the following conditions:
1) If City funding from federal, state, local, or other sources is not obtained and continued
at levels sufficient to allow for the purchase of the indicated quantity of services. This
Agreement may be modified to accommodate a reduction in funds.
2) If federal or state regulations or guidelines are modified, changed, or interpreted in such a
way that the services are no longer allowable or appropriate for purchase under this
Agreement.
3) If any license or certificate required by law or regulation to be held by Contractor, its
subcontractors, agents, and employees to provide the services required by this Agreement
is for any reason denied, revoked, or not renewed.
4) If Contractor becomes insolvent, if voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy is filed
by or against Contractor, if a receiver or trustee is appointed for Contractor, or if there is

any obligations or liabilities of either party already accrued prior to such termination.
B. City, by written notice of default (including breach of contract) to Contractor, may
terminate the whole or any part of this Agreement:
1) If Contractor fails to provide services called for by this Agreement within the time
specified, or
2) If Contractor fails to perform any of the other provisions of this Agreement, or fails
to pursue the work as to endanger performance of this Agreement in accordance with
its terms, and after receipt of written notice from City, fails to correct such failures
within ten (10) days or such other period as City may authorize.

contract) by Contractor are not exclusive and are in addition to any other rights and
remedies provided by law or under this Agreement.

receive as full payment for all services satisfactorily rendered and expenses incurred,
provided, that the City may deduct the amount of damages, if any, sustained by City due
to breach of contract by Contractor. Damages for breach of contract include those
allowed by Oregon law, reasonable and necessary attorney fees, and other costs of

subcontractor or supplies due to such cause; provided that the parties so disenabled will within

additional compensation. Each party will, however, make all reasonable efforts to remove or
eliminate such a cause of delay or default and will, upon cessation of the cause, diligently
pursue performance of its obligation under the Agreement.
