4.4.6 Subcontractors. Consultant shall include all subcontractors as insureds under its policies or shall furnish separate certificates and endorsements for each subcontractor. All coverages for subcontractors shall be subject to all of the requirements stated herein, 4.5 Remedies. In addition to any other remedies Agency may have if Consultant fails to provide or maintain any insurance policies or policy endorsements to the extent and within the time herein required, Agency may, at its sole option exercise any of the following remedies, which are alternatives to other remedies Agency may have and are not the exclusive remedy for Consultant's breach: ^ Obtain such insurance and deduct and retain the amount of the premiums for such insurance from any sums due under the Agreement; ^ Order Consultant to stop work under this Agreement or withhold any payment that becomes due to Consultant hereunder, or both stop work and withhold any payment, until Consultant demonstrates compliance with the requirements hereof; and/or ^ Terminate this Agreement. Section 5. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONSULTANT'S RESPONSIBILITIES. Consultant shall indemnify, defend with counsel acceptable to Agency, and hold harmless Agency and its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers from and against any and all liability, loss, damage, claims, expenses, and costs (including without limitation, attorney's fees and costs and fees of litigation) (collectively, "Liability") of every nature arising out of or in connection with Consultant's performance of the Services or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement, except such Liability caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of Agency. The Consultant's obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Consultant's inability to evaluate Liability or because the Consultant evaluates Liability and determines that the Consultant is not liable to the claimant. The Consultant must respond within 30 days, to the tender of any claim for defense and indemnity by the Agency, unless this time has been extended by the Agency. If the Consultant fails to accept or reject a tender of defense and indemnity within 30 days, in addition to any other remedy authorized bylaw, so much of the money due the Consultant under and by virtue of this Agreement as shall reasonably be considered necessary by the Agency, may be retained by the Agency until disposition has been made of the claim or suit for damages, or until the Consultant accepts or rejects the tender of defense, whichever occurs first. With respect to third party claims against the Consultant, the Consultant waives any and all rights of any type to express or implied indemnity against the Indemnitees.
