against the employer of the worker for the difference between the prevailing <br />wage rates and the amount paid to such worker for each calendar day or <br />portion thereof for which the worker was paid less than the compensation <br />required to be paid under the provisions of this subsection. No issue other <br />than that of the liability of the employer for the amount of unpaid wages <br />allegedly due shall be determined in such action or proceeding, and the burden <br />shall be on the employer to establish that the amounts demanded are not due. <br />A worker recovering any or all of the wages claimed to be due shall recover his <br />costs and attorney fees in securing such recovery. Nothing in this section shall <br />preclude its enforcement by the California Division of Labor Standards <br />Enforcement. <br />Nothing in this lease shall prevent the employment of any number of properly <br />registered apprentices, as defined in Chapter 4, Division 3 of the Labor Code. <br />Every such apprentice shall be paid not less than the standard wage paid to <br />apprentices under the regulations of the crafts or trade at which the apprentice <br />is employed, and shall be employed only at the work of the craft or trade to <br />which the apprentice is registered. The employment and training of each <br />apprentice shall be in accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship <br />standards and apprentice agreements under which the apprentice is in training. <br />Good faith efforts shall be made to maintain a ratio of apprentices to <br />journeymen of not less than 20%, if the employer is signatory to an agreement <br />to train, or otherwise bound to train, apprentices. When submitting the <br />certified payroll records required hereunder Lessee shall submit documentary <br />proof of the valid apprentice status of any worker listed as an apprentice. <br />Lessee agrees that, any action by Lessee or its assignee against the City for the <br />recovery of penalties or forfeitures shall be commenced, and written notice <br />thereof shall be actually received by the City, within the ninety -day period <br />after the City Manager notifies Lessee in writing that the City Manager has <br />determined that the work is complete. Lessee agrees that such suit on the <br />Lease for alleged breach thereof in not making an advance or reimbursement or <br />in not permitting a credit to rent or other sums due the City is the exclusive <br />remedy of Lessee or the Lessee's assignee with reference to such penalties or <br />forfeitures. <br />Lessee or Lessee's assignee may bring such suit without permission of the City, <br />but the suit shall be limited to the recovery of the penalties or forfeitures <br />without prejudice to Lessee or Lessee's assignee's rights in other matters <br />affecting the Lease. Lessee agrees that no other issues shall be presented to the <br />11 <br />
