officer or employee thereof, be liable for any persons or property injured by reason of the
nature of said work, or by reason of the acts or omissions of the CONTRACTOR, his
agents, or employees, in performances of said work. All of said liabilities shall be assumed
by the CONTRACTOR. The CONTRACTOR further agrees to protect and hold harmless
the CITY, its officers, and employees, in performance of said work. All of said liabilities shall
be assumed by the CONTRACTOR.
The CONTRACTOR further agrees to protect and hold harmless the CITY, its
officers, and employees, from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, liability, or
loss of any sort because of, or arising out of, the acts or omissions of the CONTRACTOR,
his agents, and employees, in the performance of this agreement, or arising out of the use
of any patent or patented article, in the performance of said agreement.
THIRD: The CONTRACTOR hereby grants to the CITY, the Surety upon any Bond,
and to the agents, employees, and CONTRACTOR or either of them, the irrevocable
permission to enter upon the lands of the subject land division for the purpose of completing
the work. This permission shall terminate in the event that the CONTRACTOR or the Surety
has completed the work within the time specified or any extension thereof granted by the
City Council.
FOURTH: It is further agreed that the CONTRACTOR shall have the control of the
ground reserved for the installation of said work, and the streets in which they are to be
placed, as is necessary to allow him to carry out this agreement.
FIFTH: Contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, CONTRACTOR
shall file with the CITY a Time Certificate of Deposit in the amount of Twelve Thousand Nine
Hundred Dollars ($12,900) to guarantee faithful performance of all the provisions of this
agreement and for the payment of all persons performing labor and furnishings materials in
connection with this agreement. If the Time Certificate of Deposit, in the opinion of the
CITY, becomes insufficient, CONTRACTOR agrees to renew said Time Certificate of
Deposit within ten days of receiving notice that Time Certificate of Deposit is insufficient.
SIXTH: If the CONTRACTOR neglects, refuses, or fails to prosecute the work with
such diligence as to ensure its completion within the time specified, or within such
extensions of said time as have been granted by the City Council, or if the CONTRACTOR
violates or neglects, refuses, or fails to perform satisfactorily any of the provisions of the
plans and specifications, he shall be in default of this agreement and notice in writing of
such default shall be served upon him and upon any Surety in connection with this contract.
The City Council shall have the power, on recommendation of the City Engineer, to
terminate all rights of the CONTRACTOR or his Surety then existing or which thereafter
occur because of such default. The determination by the City Engineer of the question as to
whether any of the terms of the contract or specifications have been violated, or have not
been performed satisfactorily, shall be conclusive upon the CONTRACTOR, his Surety, and
any and all other parties who may have any interest in the contract or any portion thereof.
The foregoing provisions of this section shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies
available to the CITY under law.
SEVENTH: In case suit is brought upon this contract, the CONTRACTOR hereby
agrees to pay to the CITY a reasonable attorney's fee to be fixed by the Court.

or Sureties on any Bond attached to this contract, that in the event it is deemed necessary
to extend the time of completion of the work contemplated to be done under this contract,
said extension may be granted by the City Council, either at its own option, or upon request
of the CONTRACTOR, and shall in no way affect the validity of this contract or release the
Surety of Sureties on any Bond attached hereto.
IN WITNESS THEREOF, the parties hereto for themselves, their heirs, executors,
administrators, successors, and assigns do hereby agree to the full performance of this
