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 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.

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.

SUBCONTRACTING Contractor will not subcontract any portion of the Services without prior written approval of City.

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.

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.

Other Insurance Condition Paragraphs 4.a. and 4.b.(1) of the Other Insurance Condition of Section IV -Commercial General Liability Conditions are replaced by the following: 4. Other Insurance If other valid and collectible insurance is available to the insured for a loss we cover under Coverages A or B of this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows: a. Primary Insurance This insurance is primary except when Paragraph b. below applies. If this insurance is primary, our obligations are not affected unless any of the other insurance is also primary. Then, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in Paragraph c. below. However, this insurance is primary to and will not seek contribution from any other insurance available to an additional insured provided that: (1) The additional insured is a Named Insured under such other insurance; and (2) You are required by written contract or written agreement that this insurance be primary and not seek contribution from any other insurance available to the additional insured. Other insurance includes any type of self insurance or other mechanism by which an insured arranges for funding of its legal liabilities. b. Excesslnsurance (1) This insurance is excess over: (a) Any of the other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis: (i) That is property insurance, Builder's Risk, Installation Risk or similar coverage for "your work"; (ii) That is property insurance purchased by you (including any deductible or self insurance portion thereof) to cover premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; (iii) That is insurance purchased by you (including any deductible or self insurance portion thereof) to cover your liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises rented to you or temporarily (iv) If the loss arises out of the maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of Section 1-Coverage A-Bodily Injury And Property Damage Liability; or (v) That is property insurance (including any deductible or self insurance portion thereof) purchased by you to cover damage to: Equipment you borrow from others; or Property loaned to you or personal property in the care, custody or control of the insured arising out of the use of an elevator at premises you own, rent or occupy. (b) Any other primary insurance (including any deductible or self insurance portion thereof) available to the insured covering liability for damages arising out of the premises, operations, products, work or services for which the insured has been granted additional insured status either by policy provision or attachment of any endorsement. Other primary insurance includes any type of self insurance or other mechanism by which an insured arranges for funding of its legal liabilities. (c) Any of the other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis, available to an additional insured, in which the additional insured on our policy is also covered as an additional insured on another policy providing coverage for the same "occurrence", claim or "suit".

Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us a. If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part, those rights are transferred to us. The insured must do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. b. If the insured waives its right to recover payments for injury or damage from another person or organization in a written contract executed prior to a loss, we waive any right of recovery we may have against such person or organization because of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part. The written contract will be considered executed when the insured's performance begins, or when it is signed, whichever happens first. This waiver of rights shall not be construed to be a waiver with respect to any other operations in which the insured has no contractual interest. Y. In Rem Section IV -Commercial General Liability Conditions is amended to add the following: In Rem Any "suit" brought as an action against any watercraft owned or operated by or for the insured shall in all respects be treated in the same manner as though such "suit" were brought against the insured.
