Related to Definitions and Consultant Services
Consultant Services 3.1.1 The A/E may provide a portion of the Services through one or more Consultants, provided, however, that the A/E shall remain responsible for all of the A/E’s duties and obligations under this Agreement. 3.1.2 By appropriate written agreement, the A/E shall require each Consultant, to the extent of the Consultant’s portion of the Services, to be bound to the A/E by the terms of this Agreement, and to assume toward the A/E all of the obligations and responsibilities that the A/E assumes toward the Contracting Authority and Owner. 3.1.2.1 The A/E shall not retain any Consultant on terms inconsistent with this Agreement. 3.1.2.2 All agreements between the A/E and a Consultant shall identify the Contracting Authority and Owner as the agreement’s intended third-party beneficiaries. 3.1.2.3 Upon the request of the Contracting Authority or Owner, the A/E shall submit to the Contracting Authority and Owner a copy of the agreement between the A/E and each Consultant. 3.1.3 The A/E shall obtain the Contracting Authority’s written approval before engaging any Consultant not named in the Agreement. The A/E shall not employ any Consultant against whom the Contracting Authority has a reasonable objection. The Contracting Authority’s approval or disapproval of any Consultant, however, will not relieve the A/E of the A/E’s full responsibility for performance of the Services. 3.1.4 The A/E shall not remove any Consultant from the Project or reduce the extent of any Consultant’s participation in providing the Services without the Contracting Authority’s prior written consent. The A/E shall not permit any Consultant to replace any previously identified team member except with the Contracting Authority’s prior written consent unless the Consultant ceases to employ that person. On notice from the Contracting Authority, the A/E shall immediately and permanently remove from the Project any Consultant or person under a Consultant’s control whose performance is not satisfactory to the Contracting Authority. 3.1.5 The Contracting Authority may communicate with any Consultant either through the A/E or directly with the Consultant, but the Contracting Authority may not modify the agreement between the A/E and any Consultant. The Contracting Authority will advise the A/E with reasonable promptness of direct communication with any Consultant. 3.1.6 The A/E hereby assigns to the Contracting Authority each Consultant’s agreement provided that the assignment is effective only after the Contracting Authority terminates this Agreement in whole or in part and only for those agreements that the Contracting Authority accepts by notifying the Consultant and A/E in writing. The Contracting Authority may re-assign accepted agreements. 3.1.6.1 If the Contracting Authority terminates this Agreement in part, the Contracting Authority may (1) take assignment of any entire Consultant’s agreement affected by the termination or (2) take partial assignment of only the portion of any Consultant’s agreement associated with the terminated part of this Agreement.
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT’S RESPONSIBILITIES Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel reasonably acceptable to the City, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, contractors, consultants, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Consultant shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises wholly from the negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, contractors, consultants, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Consultant or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Consultant to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Consultant from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Consultant acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration. In the event that Consultant or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Consultant providing services under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of City, Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Consultant or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.

(b) The Asset Manager’s services to the Series are not exclusive. The Asset Manager may engage in other activities on behalf of itself, any other Managing Party and other clients (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may include other series of the Company). The Series acknowledges and agrees that the Asset Manager may, without prior notice to the Series, give advice to such other clients. The Asset Manager shall not be liable to account to the Series for any profits, commission or remuneration made or received in respect of transactions effected pursuant to the Asset Manager’s advice to another client and nor will the Asset Manager’s fees be abated as a result.
Scope of Services The specific scope of work for each job shall be determined in advance and in writing between TIPS Member, Member’s design professionals and Vendor.

SCOPE OF SERVICES/CASE HANDLING A. Upon execution by GPM, attorneys are retained to provide legal services for the purpose of seeking damages and other relief in the Litigation. Client provides authorization to seek appointment as Lead Plaintiff in the class action, while the Attorneys will seek to be appointed Class Counsel. If this occurs, the Litigation will be prosecuted as a class action. B. If you obtain access to non-public information during the pendency of the Litigation, you must not engage in transactions in securities. C. Attorneys are authorized to prosecute the Litigation. The appointed Lead Plaintiffs will monitor, review and participate with counsel in the prosecution of the Litigation. The Attorneys shall consult with the appointed Lead Plaintiffs concerning all major substantive matters related to the Litigation, including, but not limited to, the complaint, dispositive motions and settlement. Because of potential differences of opinion between Clients concerning, among other things, strategy, goals and objectives of the Litigation, the Attorneys shall consult with the appointed Lead Plaintiffs as to the courses of action to pursue. The Client agrees to abide by the decisions of the appointed Lead Plaintiffs, which shall be final and binding on all Clients. D. GPM is given the authority to opt the Client out of any class action proceeding relating to the claims authorized herein and/or pursue the Client claim individually in a group action, if the Client is not appointed Lead Plaintiff and GPM is not appointed Class Counsel. E. The Attorneys shall provide sufficient resources, including attorney time and capital for payment of costs and expenses, to vigorously prosecute the Litigation. F. Any recovery from defendants that the Attorneys are responsible for will be divided among class members based on the recognized loss by each class member as calculated by a damage allocation plan which will be prepared by a financial expert or consultant, provided to the appointed Lead Plaintiffs, be subject to the Court's approval and will account for such factors as size of securities ownership, date of purchase, date of sale and continued holdings, if any. Under the rules governing class action litigation, while the Lead Plaintiffs recover according to the same formula as other class members, the Court may approve, upon application therefore, reimbursement of the Lead Plaintiffs’ reasonable costs and expenses directly related to the representation of the class. Examples are lost wages and travel expenses associated with testifying in the action.
