4. Payment Schedule. CITY will make payment within thirty (30) days of
receiving and approving a billing statement for the satisfactorily completed services of
CONTRACTOR.
5. Termination.
A. CITY may terminate this Agreement at any time by providing five (5)
day's written notice to CONTRACTOR. In the event of such termination, CITY agrees to pay
one-half of the fee due for screenings not yet provided. If twelve hours before a scheduled
screening, the CITY determines that severe weather or a Force Majeure event described in
Section 11(A) threatens or prevents any screening from taking place as planned, CITY may
cancel the screening and shall pay one-half of the fee due for the cancelled screening. In such
event, the CONTRACTOR shall reschedule the cancelled screening as described in Section
11(A).
B. Once CONTRACTOR's staff departs for CITY's screening, CITY shall be
responsible for all fees owed for that screening even if severe weather or a Section 11(A) Force
Majeure event interrupts or prevents the screenings from taking place as planned. In such event,
the CONTRACTOR shall reschedule such screening as described in Section 11(A).
C. In the event severe weather or a Section 11(A) Force Majeure event poses
a safety threat to outdoor screening attendees, CONTRACTOR staff and/or equipment, the CITY
reserves the right to direct CONTRACTOR to (1) reduce or suspend screening services until
such time as such potential safety threat has passed, or (2) direct CONTRACTOR to cancel the
screening. If the screening is cancelled, CONTRACTOR shall reschedule the screening in
accordance with Section 11(A).
6. Independent Contractor. It is agreed that CONTRACTOR is an independent
Contractor, and all persons working for or under the direction of CONTRACTOR are
CONTRACTOR'S agents, servants and employees, and said persons shall not be deemed agents,
servants, or employees of CITY.
7. Insurance. CONTRACTOR shall obtain:
A. ❑ If checked, Professional Liability Insurance (errors and omissions)
with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence.
B. Automobile insurance covering all bodily injury and property damage
incurred during the performance of this Agreement, with a minimum coverage of $500,000
bodily injury per accident. Such automobile insurance shall include scheduled and hired vehicles.
The policy shall name the CITY and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers as additional
insureds, and a separate additional insured endorsement shall be provided.
C. Commercial General Liability Insurance, with minimum limits of either
$2,000,000 per occurrence and $4,000,000 aggregate, or $1,000,000 per occurrence and

with specificity on an endorsement that shall be incorporated into the policy.
D. Workers' compensation insurance in an amount sufficient to meet
statutory requirements covering all of CONTRACTOR'S employees and employers' liability
insurance with limits of at least $1,000,000 per accident. In addition, the policy shall be endorsed
with a waiver of subrogation in favor of the CITY. Said endorsement shall be provided prior to
commencement of work under this Agreement. The waiver of subrogation described in this
Article 7 shall not apply to workers' compensation coverage because Scott Tallal will be the only
person on behalf of CONTRACTOR providing services (described in Article 1) who presents
any workers' compensation risk that could lead to subrogation.
E. The aforesaid policies shall constitute primary insurance as to the CITY,
its officers, employees, and volunteers, so that any other policies held by the CITY shall not
contribute to any loss under said insurance. Said policies shall provide for thirty (30) days prior
written notice to the CITY's Risk Manager, at the address listed in subsection G below, of
cancellation or material change.
F. Said policies, except for the professional liability and workers'
compensation policies, shall name the CITY and its officers, agents, employees, and volunteers

"occurrence" form, the CONTRACTOR shall maintain such insurance coverage for three years
after expiration of the term (and any extensions) of this Agreement. In addition, the "retro" date
must be on or before the date of this Agreement.
I. Insurance shall be written with only insurers authorized to conduct

proof that these insurance provisions have been complied with, are filed with, and approved by
the CITY's Risk Manager. If the CONTRACTOR does not keep all of such insurance policies in

the failure to maintain the requisite insurance as a breach of this Agreement and terminate the
Agreement as provided herein.
K. All deductibles and self -insured retentions in excess of $10,000 must be
disclosed to and approved by the CITY.
L. If the CONTRACTOR maintains broader coverage or higher limits (or
both) than the minimum limits shown above, the CITY requires and shall be entitled to the
broader coverage or higher limits (or both) maintained by the CONTRACTOR. Any available
insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of insurance and coverage shall be
available to the CITY.

attorneys' fees, and defense costs, of any kind or nature, including workers' compensation
claims, of or by anyone whomsoever, resulting from or arising out of the CONTRACTOR' S
performance or other obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that this
indemnification and hold harmless shall not include any claims or liability arising from the

volunteers. CITY will cooperate reasonably in the defense of any action, and CONTRACTOR
shall employ competent counsel, reasonably acceptable to the City Attorney.

under this Agreement that occurred during the term of this Agreement.
