materials and documents (collectively "Work(s)") prepared by Contractor in the performance of
this Agreement shall be the property of City from the moment of their preparation, and
Contractor shall deliver such materials and documents to City, upon request.
Contractor shall have the right to make duplicate copies of such materials and
documents for its own file or for other purposes the City may agree as to in writing.
6. Titles and Copyright Assignment. Contractor and City intend this to be an Agreement for
Services and each considers the deliverable product (Work) and results of the Services to be
rendered by Contractor hereunder to be a work made-for-hire. Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that the Work (and all rights therein, including, without limitation, copyright) belongs to
and shall be the sole and exclusive property of City.
If for any reason the Work would not be considered a work made-for-hire under
applicable law, Contractor does hereby sell, assign, and transfer to City, its successors and
assigns, the entire right, title and interest in and to the copyright in the Work and any
registrations and copyright applications relating thereto and any renewals and extensions
thereof, and in and to all works based upon, derived from, or incorporating the Work, and in and
to all income, royalties, damages, claims and payments now or hereafter due or payable with
respect thereto, and in and to all causes of action, either in law or in equity for past, present, or
future infringement based on the copyrights, and in and to all rights corresponding to the
foregoing throughout the world.
If the Work is one to which the provisions of 17 U.S.C. 106A apply, the Contractor
hereby waives and appoints City to assert on the Contractor's behalf the Contractor's moral
rights or any equivalent rights regarding the form or extent of any alteration to the Work
(including, without limitation, removal or destruction) or the making of any derivative works
based on the Work, including, without limitation, photographs, drawings or other visual
reproductions or the Work, in any medium, for City purposes.
Contractor agrees to execute all required documents and to perform such other proper
acts, as City may deem necessary to secure for City or its designee the rights herein assigned.
7. Indemnification for Intellectual Property Infringement. Contractor agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold harmless City, its elected officials, employees and agents from and against
any claim, action, proceeding, liability, loss, damage, cost or expense, including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees, as provided herein, arising out of any claim that the
Contractor's Works, products, services and/or deliverables, or any part of them, infringes upon
or otherwise violates any copyright, trade secret, trademark, service mark, patent, invention,
proprietary information, or other rights of any third party, or that City's use of them otherwise
violates this Section [collectively referred to for purposes of this Section as "Infringement
Claims(s)"], by paying all amounts that a court finally awards or that Contractor agrees to in
settlement of such Infringement Claim(s), as well as any and all expenses or charges arising
City Attorney Approved Version 6-2015
2
from such Infringement Claim(s), including reasonable attorneys' fees, as they are incurred by
City or any other party indemnified under this Section.
City also agrees that, if the use or operation of the Contractor's Works, products,
services and/or deliverables, or any part of them, becomes, or in Contractor's opinion is likely to
become, the subject of an Infringement Claim(s), City will permit Contractor, at Contractor's
option and expense for all associated costs, either to procure the right for City to continue to use
Contractor's Works, products, services and/or deliverables, or part thereof, or to replace or
modify them with another item of comparable quality and performance capabilities to become
non-infringing, provided such replacement or modification does not cause the product, services
and/or deliverables, or any part thereof, to fail to comply with any of the requirements of this
Agreement, including but not limited to, all functionality, technical specifications and
performance warranties.
In the event City's ongoing use of Contractor's Work's, products, services and/or
deliverables, or any part of them, is the subject of any act by a third party arising from an
Infringement Claim that would preclude or impair City's use of Contractor's Works, products,
services and/or deliverables (e.g., injunctive relief), or if City's continued use of them may
subject it to punitive damages or statutory penalties, City shall give written notice to Contractor
of such fact(s). Upon notice of such facts, Contractor shall procure the right for City to continue
to use the Works, products, services and/or deliverables, or part thereof, or replace or modify
the Works, products, services and/or deliverables of comparable quality and performance
capabilities to become non-infringing.
If Contractor fails to complete the remedial acts set forth above within forty-five (45)
calendar days of the date of the written notice from City, City shall have the right to take such
remedial acts it determines to be reasonable to mitigate any impairment of its use of
Contractor's Works, products, services and/or deliverables or damages (hereafter referred to as
"City's Remedial Acts"). Contractor shall indemnify City for all amounts paid and direct and
indirect costs associated with City's Remedial Acts. Failure by Contractor to pay such amounts
within ten (10) calendar days of invoice by City shall, in addition to and cumulative to all other
remedies, entitle City to immediately withhold payments due Contractor under this Agreement
up to the amount paid in connection with City's Remedial Acts.
8. Indemnification -General. Contractor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the City
and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers from and against all claims, damages,
losses and expenses including attorneys fees arising out of the performance of the work
described herein caused in whole or in part 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.
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.

any and all amendments, insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damage to property

Agreement. City, its officers, agents and employees make no representation that the limits of
the insurance specified to be carried by Contractor pursuant to this Agreement are adequate to
protect Contractor. If Contractor believes that any required insurance coverage is inadequate,

Contractor's sole expense. The full limits available to the named insured shall also be available

13. Termination. In the event of the Contractor's failure to prosecute, deliver, or perform the
Services, City may terminate this Agreement for nonperformance by notifying Contractor by
certified mail and/or U.S. Mail of the termination. If City decides to abandon or indefinitely
postpone the work or services contemplated by this Agreement, City may terminate this
Agreement upon written notice to Contractor. Upon notification of termination, Contractor has
five (5) business days to deliver any documents owned by City and all work in progress to City
address contained in this Agreement. City will make a determination of fact based upon the
work product delivered to City and of the percentage of work that Contractor has performed
which is usable and of worth to City in having the Agreement completed. Based upon that
finding City will determine the final payment of the Agreement.
Either party upon tendering thirty (30) days written notice to the other party may
terminate this Agreement. In this event and upon request of City, Contractor will assemble the
work product and put it in order for proper filing and closing and deliver it to City. Contractor will
be paid for work performed to the termination date; however, the total will not exceed the lump
sum fee payable under this Agreement. City will make the final determination as to the portions
of tasks completed and the compensation to be made.
14. Claims and Lawsuits. By signing this Agreement, Contractor agrees that any Agreement
claim submitted to City must be asserted as part of the Agreement process as set forth in this
Agreement and not in anticipation of litigation or in conjunction with litigation. Contractor
acknowledges that if a false claim is submitted to City, it may be considered fraud and
Contractor may be subject to criminal prosecution. Contractor acknowledges that California
City Attorney Approved Version 6-2015

Government Code sections 12650 et seq., the False Claims Act applies to this Agreement and,
provides for civil penalties where a person knowingly submits a false claim to a public entity.
These provisions include false claims made with deliberate ignorance of the false information or
in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of information. If City seeks to recover penalties
pursuant to the False Claims Act, it is entitled to recover its litigation costs, including attorney's
fees. Contractor acknowledges that the filing of a false claim may subject Contractor to an
administrative debarment proceeding as the result of which Contractor may be prevented to act
as a Contractor on any public work or improvement for a period of up to five (5) years.
Contractor acknowledges debarment by another jurisdiction is grounds for City to terminate this
Agreement.
15. Venue and Jurisdiction. Contractor agrees and stipulates that the proper venue and
jurisdiction for resolution of any disputes between the parties arising out of this Agreement is the
State Superior Court, San Diego County, California.
16. Assignment. Contractor may assign neither this Agreement nor any part of it, nor any
monies due or to become due under it, without the prior written consent of City.
17. Amendments This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent of City and
Contractor. Any amendment will be in writing, signed by both parties, with a statement of
estimated changes in charges or time schedule.
18. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any other written document referred to
or contemplated by it, along with the purchase order for this Agreement and its provisions,
embody the entire Agreement and understanding between the parties relating to the subject
matter of it. In case of conflict, the terms of the Agreement supersede the purchase order.
Neither this Agreement nor any of its provisions may be amended, modified, waived or
discharged except in a writing signed by both parties.
19. Authority. The individuals executing this Agreement and the instruments referenced in it
on behalf of Contractor each represent and warrant that they have the legal power, right and
