Procurement Contract No. 16383 2. INDEMNIFICATION: To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONTRACTOR shall hold harmless, defend and indemnify the County of Alameda, its Board of Supervisors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys' fees, arising out of or resulting from the performance of services under this Agreement, provided that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or expense is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease, death or to injury to or destruction of property, including the loss therefrom, or to any violation of federal, state or municipal law or regulation, which arises out of or is any way connected with the performance of this agreement (collectively "Liabilities") except where such Liabilities are caused solely by the negligence or willful misconduct of any indemnitee. The COUNTY may participate in the defense of any such claim without relieving CONTRACTOR of any obligation hereunder. The obligations of this indemnity shall be for the full amount of all damage to COUNTY, including defense costs, and shall not be limited by any insurance limits. In the event that CONTRACTOR or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of CONTRACTOR providing services under this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the Alameda County Employees' Retirement Association (ACERA) or California Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in ACERA and PERS as an employee of COUNTY, CONTRACTOR shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless COUNTY for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for ACERA and PERS benefits on behalf of CONTRACTOR 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 COUNTY. 3. INSURANCE AND BOND: CONTRACTOR shall at all times during the term of the Agreement with the COUNTY maintain in force, at minimum, those insurance policies and bonds as designated in the attached Exhibit C, and will comply with all those requirements as stated therein. The COUNTY and all parties as set forth on Exhibit C shall be considered an additional insured or loss payee if applicable. All of CONTRACTOR's available insurance coverage and proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits shall be available to satisfy any and all claims of the COUNTY, including defense costs and damages. Any insurance limitations are independent of and shall not limit the indemnification terms of this Agreement. CONTRACTOR's insurance policies, including excess and umbrella insurance policies, shall include an endorsement and be primary and non-contributory and will not seek contribution from any other insurance (or self-insurance) available to COUNTY. CONTRACTOR's excess and umbrella insurance shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis for the benefit of the COUNTY before COUNTY's own insurance policy or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
