(h) CONTRACTOR shall not be relieved of any liability, claims, demands, or other obligations assumed pursuant to this Agreement by reason of

CONTRACTOR's failure to procure or maintain insurance, or by reason of its failure to procure or maintain insurance in sufficient amount, duration or type. Failure on the part of CONTRACTOR to procure or maintain policies providing the required coverage, conditions and minimum limits shall constitute a material breach of contract upon which

FRISCO may immediately terminate this Agreement, or at its discretion FRISCO may procure or renew any such policy or any extended reporting period thereto and may pay any and all premiums in connection therewith, and all monies so paid by FRISCO shall be repaid by CONTRACTOR to FRISCO upon demand, or FRISCO may withhold the cost of the premiums from any monies due to CONTRACTOR from FRISCO.

(i) The parties hereto understand and agree that FRISCO is relying on, and does not waive or intend to waive by any provision of this Agreement, the monetary limitations (presently $350,000 per person and $990,000 per occurrence) or any other rights, immunities, and protections provided by the Colorado Governmental

Immunity Act, §§ 24-10-101 et seq., C.R.S., as from time to time amended, or otherwise available to FRISCO, its officers, or its employees.

Section 2.5 Indemnification:

(a) CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless FRISCO and its agents and employees from and against all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys' fees, arising out of or resulting from this

Agreement, provided that any such claim, damage, loss or expense (1) is attributable to copyright infringement, bodily injury, sickness, disease or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property including the loss of use resulting therefrom, and (2) is caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or omission of CONTRACTOR, any subcontractor of CONTRACTOR, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable. Such obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge or otherwise reduce any other right or obligation of indemnity that would otherwise exist as to any person described in this Section 2.5(a).

(b) In any and all claims against FRISCO or any of its agents or employees by any employee of CONTRACTOR, any subcontractor of CONTRACTOR, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone for whose act any of them may be liable, the indemnification obligation under this Section 2.5 shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for CONTRACTOR or any subcontractor under worker's or workman's compensation actions, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.

Section 2.6 Subcontractor: CONTRACTOR shall, as soon as practicable after the signing of this Agreement, notify FRISCO in writing for FRISCO's approval, of any subcontractors who may be involved in the Project and the general scope of work to be performed by each subcontractor.

Section 2.7 Termination of Agreement:

(a) This Agreement shall terminate: (a) at such time as the work described in the Scope of Services is completed and the requirements of this Agreement are satisfied, (b) on __________, 202_, or (c) upon FRISCO providing CONTRACTOR with seven (7) days advance written notice, whichever occurs first. After termination, FRISCO shall pay CONTRACTOR for all work previously authorized and completed prior to the date of termination. If, however, CONTRACTOR has substantially or materially breached this Agreement, FRISCO shall have any remedy or right of set-off available at law and equity. If this Agreement is terminated for any reason other than cause prior to completion of the Scope of Services, any use of documents by FRISCO thereafter shall be at FRISCO's sole risk, unless otherwise consented to by

CONTRACTOR. This Agreement may be terminated by CONTRACTOR upon thirty

(30) days' written notice, provided that such termination is based upon a substantial failure by FRISCO to perform in accordance with the terms in this Agreement. In the event of such termination, FRISCO will pay CONTRACTOR for all services performed to date of termination. If payment is otherwise due upon completion, FRISCO will pay

CONTRACTOR for the pro rata value of the completed portion of the Project that will be incorporated into the Project. FRISCO will require the release of all lien rights as a condition of such payment.

(b) Nothing herein shall constitute a multiple fiscal year obligation pursuant to Colorado Constitution Article X, Section 20. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, FRISCO's obligations under this Agreement are subject to annual appropriation by the Town Council of FRISCO. Any failure of a Town Council annually to appropriate adequate monies to finance FRISCO's obligations under this

Agreement shall terminate this Agreement at such time as such then-existing appropriations are to be depleted. Notice shall be given promptly to CONTRACTOR of any failure to appropriate such adequate monies.

Section 2.8 Binding Effect: FRISCO and CONTRACTOR each bind itself, its successors and assigns to the other party to this Agreement with respect to all rights and obligations under this Agreement. Neither FRISCO nor CONTRACTOR shall assign or transfer its interest in this Agreement without the written consent of the other.
