possible in the camera metadata i.e. SmithW_09_03_14
Additional Please note any additiqnal shots that do not pertain to the project, but were
Notes: acquired while on the shoot. For example, trail with flowers in bloom
Please keep the names of dips as short and detailed as possible in this order.
Naming Order:
Example:
Project Prefix-Description of Action, ANGLE
Crosswalk Safety -guard crosses with kids MS
The project prefix can also be the location of the shoot. For example, if you're recording B-Roil
of airplanes at the airport, Airport -jet takes off MS would be the file name.
Example: If the project name is "Crosswalk Safety" there is no need to indude crosswalks in the
dip description as it is already listed. Crossing guard would be "guard" because it's induded in
the project prefix. This will help to keep dip names shorter.
When there are multiple takes of the same action, add a number to differentiate. Only dip out
the best useable footage for delivery and provide the best two takes of the action.
When naming clips use WS = wide shot, MS = medium shot and CU = close up.
Please use the descriptors below -do not use symbols i.e. (/<>\) as they do not read in
searches and can result in corrupt dips.

2
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 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.
10. IDEMNIFICA TION 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 by any negligence,
recklessness, or willful misconduct 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.

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 Government Code sections 12650 et seq.,
the False Claims Act applies to this Agreement and, provides for civil penalties where a person

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

or rights provided for by this Agreement will be tried in a court of competent jurisdiction in the
County of San Diego, State of California, and the parties waive all provisions of law providing for
