Any construction, alteration, demolition, repair, and maintenance work, including work performed during design and preconstruction such as inspection and land surveying work, cumulatively exceeding $1,000 and performed under this Agreement constitute “public works” under California Labor Code section 1720 et seq. and are subject to state prevailing wage laws.

Pursuant to Section 1773.2 of the California Labor code, a current copy of applicable wage rates is on file in the office of the City Engineer. Contractor shall not pay less than the said specified prevailing rates of wages to all such workers employed by him or her in the execution of the Agreement.

Prior to the performance of public work by any subcontractor or subconsultant under this Agreement, Contractor must furnish City with the subcontractor or subconsultant's current DIR registration number. 7. CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE Procore Project Management and Collaboration System. This project may utilize the Owner’s Procore (www.procore.com) online project management and document control platform. The intent of utilizing Procore is to reduce cost and schedule risk, improve quality and safety, and maintain a healthy team dynamic by improving information flow, reducing non-productive activities, reducing rework and decreasing turnaround times. The Contractor is required to create a free web-based Procore user account(s) and utilize web-based training / tutorials (as needed) to become familiar with the system. Unless the Engineer approves otherwise, the Contractor shall process all project documents through Procore because this platform will be used to submit, track, distribute and collaborate on project. If unfamiliar or not otherwise trained with Procore, Contractor and applicable team members shall complete a free training certification course located at http://learn.procore.com/procore-certification- subcontractor. The Contractor is responsible for attaining their own Procore support, as needed, either through the online training or reaching out to the Procore support team. It will be the responsibility of the Contractor to regularly check Procore and review updated documents as they are added. There will be no cost to the Contractor for use of Procore. It is recommended that the Contractor provide mobile access for Windows, iOS located at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/procore-construction-management/id374930542 or Android devices located at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.procore.activities with the Procore App installed to at least one on-site individual to provide real-time access to current posted drawings, specifications, RFIs, submittals, schedules, change orders, project documents, as well as any deficient observations or punch list items. Providing mobile access will improve communication, efficiency, and Docusign Envelope ID: A5DF5F56-3BD7-431F-8FDB-0DFFCF405498 PSA25-3582TRAN City Attorney Approved Version 5/22/2024 Page 3 productivity for all parties. The use of Procore for project management does not relieve the contractor of any other requirements as may be specified in the contract documents. 8. STATUS OF CONTRACTOR Contractor will perform the Services in Contractor's own way as an independent contractor and in pursuit of Contractor's independent calling, and not as an employee of City. Contractor will be under control of City only as to the result to be accomplished but will consult with City as necessary. The persons used by Contractor to provide services under this Agreement will not be considered employees of City for any purposes. The payment made to Contractor pursuant to the Agreement will be the full and complete compensation to which Contractor is entitled. City will not make any federal or state tax withholdings on behalf of Contractor or its agents, employees or subcontractors. City will not be required to pay any workers' compensation insurance or unemployment contributions on behalf of Contractor or its employees or subcontractors. Contractor agrees to indemnify City within thirty (30) days for any tax, retirement contribution, social security, overtime payment, unemployment payment or workers' compensation payment which City may be required to make on behalf of Contractor or any agent, employee, or subcontractor of Contractor for work done under this Agreement. At the City’s election, City may deduct the indemnification amount from any balance owing to Contractor. 9. SUBCONTRACTING Contractor will not subcontract any portion of the Services without prior written approval of City. If Contractor subcontracts any of the Services, Contractor will be fully responsible to City for the acts and omissions of Contractor's subcontractor and of the persons either directly or indirectly employed by the subcontractor, as Contractor is for the acts and omissions of persons directly employed by Contractor. Nothing contained in this Agreement will create any contractual relationship between any subcontractor of Contractor and City. Contractor will be responsible for payment of subcontractors. Contractor will bind every subcontractor and every subcontractor of a subcontractor by the terms of this Agreement applicable to Contractor's work unless specifically noted to the contrary in the subcontract and approved in writing by City. 10. OTHER CONTRACTORS The City reserves the right to employ other Contractors in connection with the Services. 11. INDEMNIFICATION Contractor agrees to defend (with counsel approved by the City), indemnify, and hold harmless the City and its officers, elected and appointed officials, employees and volunteers from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses including attorney’s fees arising out of the performance of the work described herein caused by any willful misconduct or negligent act or omission of the Contractor, any subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. If Contractor’s obligation to defend, indemnify, and/or hold harmless arises out of Contractor’s performance as a “design professional” (as that term is defined under Civil Code section 2782.8), then, and only to the extent required by Civil Code Section 2782.8, which is fully incorporated herein, Contractor’s indemnification obligation shall be limited to claims that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the Contractor, and, upon Contractor obtaining a Docusign Envelope ID: A5DF5F56-3BD7-431F-8FDB-0DFFCF405498 PSA25-3582TRAN City Attorney Approved Version 5/22/2024 Page 4 final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction. Contractor’s liability for such claim, including the cost to defend, shall not exceed the Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault. The parties expressly agree that any payment, attorney’s fee, costs or expense City incurs or makes to or on behalf of an injured employee under the City’s self-administered workers’ compensation is included as a loss, expense or cost for the purposes of this section, and that this section will survive the expiration or early termination of this Agreement. 12. INSURANCE Contractor will obtain and maintain for the duration of the Agreement and any and all amendments, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damage to property which may arise out of or in connection with performance of the services by Contractor or Contractor’s agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors.

If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate, Contractor will obtain such additional insurance coverage, as Contractor deems adequate, at Contractor's sole expense. The full limits available to the named insured shall also be available and applicable to the City as an additional insured. 12.1.1 Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance. Insurance written on an “occurrence” basis, including personal & advertising injury, with limits no less than $2,000,000 per occurrence.
