Common use of General Indemnity Provisions Clause in Contracts

General Indemnity Provisions. This indemnity is in addition to any other rights or remedies which CITY may have under the law or this Agreement. In the event of any claim or demand made against any party which is entitled to be indemnified hereunder, CITY may, at its sole discretion, reserve, retain or apply any monies due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement for the purpose of resolving such claims; provided however, that CITY may release such funds if CONSULTANT provides CITY with reasonable assurances of protection of the CITY's interest. The CITY shall, in its sole discretion determine whether such assurances are reasonable. CONSULTANT agrees that its duty to defend the indemnities arises upon an allegation of liability based upon the performance of services under this Agreement by CONSULTANT, its officers, agents, representatives, employees, sub-consultants, or anyone for whom CONSULTANT is liable and that an adjudication of CONSULTANT's liability is not a condition precedent to CONSULTANT's duty to defend.
