Defense Obligations. Regardless of the enforceability of any of the foregoing insurance and indemnity obligations, the parties shall owe each other a separate duty to investigate, handle, respond to and provide defense for any claim, demand or suit for which it extends indemnity in this Agreement, and shall satisfy any and all judgments or decrees which may be entered. A party that owes this duty shall be called the “defending party.” A party to whom this duty is owed shall be called the “indemnified party.” The duty of defense shall require the defending party to retain counsel of defending party’s choice at defending party’s sole cost and expense to represent the indemnified party. The indemnified party shall notify the defending party within a reasonable period of time of any facts which might give rise to a claim, demand or suit for which a defense will be required regardless of whether or not the claim, demand or suit has been made or filed. If a tender of defense and indemnity is made and then accepted by the defending party, then the indemnified party shall (a) afford the defending party a reasonable opportunity to investigate the facts relating to the claim, demand, or suit, including but not limited to interviewing witnesses, inspecting property and reviewing documents, and (b) cooperate at all times with the defending party’s efforts to prepare the case, including but not limited to timely responding to interrogatories and document requests, making witnesses available for depositions and attending trial of the case. If a tender of defense and indemnity is made by the indemnified party but rejected by the defending party, then upon a determination that the defending party owed a duty of defense under this Agreement, the defending party shall be held liable for any amount paid by the settling party without a need for a judicial determination as to whether the indemnified party had potential liability to the claimant or whether the settlement amount was reasonable. Contractor agrees to allow Company at any time to protect its interest by retaining its own counsel at its own expense to enter its appearance and prepare its defense regardless of any defense obligations that Contractor might otherwise have. The parties agree that the foregoing duty shall be owed whether or not the party to whom the duty is owed is ultimately determined to be solely, concurrently, actively or passively negligent or otherwise at fault.
Defense Obligations. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall, following a tender of defense from City, assume the immediate defense of (with legal counsel subject to approval of the City), the City, its boards, commissions, officers, and employees (collectively “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, damages, expenses and liabilities of every kind, nature, and description including, without limitation, injury to or death of any person(s) and incidental and consequential damages (collectively “Damages”), court costs, attorneys’ fees, litigation expenses, fees of expert consultants or witnesses in litigation, and costs of investigation (collectively “Litigation Expenses”), that arise out of, pertain to, or relate to, directly or indirectly, in whole or in part, the alleged negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of Contractor, any subconsultant, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone that they control (collectively, “Liabilities”). City will reimburse Contractor for the proportionate percentage of defense costs exceeding Contractor’s proportionate percentage of fault as determined by a Court of competent jurisdiction.
Defense Obligations. In case any action or proceeding is brought against either party by reason of any such occurrence, the party required to provide indemnification, upon written notice from the party entitled to indemnification, will, at the sole cost and expense of the party required to provide indemnification, resist and defend such action or proceeding or cause the same to be resisted and defended, by counsel designated by the party required to provide indemnification and approved in writing by the party to be defended, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

If the Indemnifying Party has agreed to indemnify the other party and has assumed the defense of any such third party claim, the other party shall have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the other party, and the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle any claim for which indemnification has been sought and is available hereunder; provided, however, that, to the extent that such settlement requires the other party to take, or prohibits the other party from taking, any action or purports to obligate the other party, then the Indemnifying Party shall not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
