In the event that a court <br />of competent jurisdiction determines that Sec. 725.06 (2), F.S. is <br />applicable to this Work, then in lieu of the above provisions of this <br />section the parties agree that Contractor shall indemnify, defend <br />and hold harmless the City, their officers and employees, to the <br />fullest extent authorized by Sec. 725.06 (2) F.S., which statutory <br />provisions shall be deemed to be incorporated herein by reference <br />as if fully set forth herein. In the event that any action or <br />proceeding is brought against City by reason of any such claim or <br />demand, Contractor, upon written notice from City shall defend <br />such action or proceeding by counsel satisfactory to City. The <br />indemnification provided above shall obligate Contractor to defend <br />at its own expense or to provide for such defense, at City’s option, <br />any and all claims of liability and all suits and actions of every name <br />and description that may be brought against City, excluding only <br />those which allege that the injuries arose out of the sole negligence <br />of City, which may result from the operations and activities under <br />this Contract whether the Work be performed by Contractor, its <br />Sub-Contractors, or by anyone directly or indirectly employed by <br />either. <br /> <br />1.36 DECISIONS ON DISAGREEMENTS: <br /> <br />The City will be the initial interpreter of the Technical <br />Specifications. <br /> <br />1.37 CITY MAY TERMINATE: <br /> <br />If the Contractor is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or if they make <br />a general assignment for the benefit of their creditors, or if a <br />trustee or receiver is appointed for the Contractor or for any of <br />their property, or if they file a petition to take advantage of any <br />debtor’s act, or to reorganize under bankruptcy or similar laws, or if <br />they repeatedly fails to supply sufficient skilled workmen or suitable <br />materials or equipment, or if they repeatedly fail to make prompt <br />payments to Sub-Contractors or for labor, materials or equipment <br />or they disregard laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders of <br />any public body having jurisdiction, or if they disregard the <br />authority of the City, of if they otherwise violate any provision of, <br />the Contract Documents, then the City may, without prejudice to <br />any other right or remedy and after giving the Contractor and the <br />surety ten (10) days written notice, terminate the services of the <br />Contractor and take possession of the Project and of all materials, <br />equipment, tools, construction equipment and machinery thereon <br />owned by the Contractor, and finish the Work by whatever method <br />they may deem expedient. In such case the Contractor shall not <br />be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is <br />finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds the <br />direct and indirect costs of completing the Project, including <br />compensation for additional professional services, such excess shall <br />be paid to the Contractor. If such costs exceed such unpaid <br />balance, the Contractor will pay the difference to the City. Such <br />costs incurred by the City will be determined by the City and <br />incorporated in a Change Order. If after termination of the <br />Contractor under this Section, it is determined by a court of <br />competent jurisdiction for any reason that the Contractor was not <br />in default, the rights and obligations of the City and the Contractor <br />shall be the same as if the termination had been issued pursuant to <br />this document. <br /> <br />1.37.1 Where the Contractor’s services have been so <br />terminated by the City said termination shall not <br />affect any rights of the City against the Contractor <br />then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any <br />retention or payment of moneys by the City due the <br />Contractor will not release the Contractor from <br />liability. <br /> <br />1.37.2 Upon ten (10) days written notice to the Contractor, <br />the City may, without cause and without prejudice to <br />any other right or remedy, elect to terminate the <br />Agreement. In such case, the Contractor shall be <br />paid for all Work executed and accepted by the City <br />as of the date of the termination. No payment shall <br />be made for profit for Work which has not been <br />performed. <br /> <br />1.38 MISCELLANEOUS: <br /> <br />Proposers acknowledge the following miscellaneous conditions: <br /> <br />1.38.1 Whenever any provision of the Contract Documents <br />requires the giving of written notice it shall be <br />deemed to have been validly given if delivered in <br />person to the individual or to a member of the firm or <br />to an officer of the corporation for whom it is <br />intended, or if delivered at or sent by registered or <br />certified mail, postage prepaid, to the last business <br />address known to them who gives the notice. <br /> <br />1.38.2 The Contract Documents shall remain the property of <br />the City. The Contractor shall have the right to keep <br />one record set of the Contract Documents upon <br />completion of the Project. <br /> <br />1.38.3 The duties and obligations imposed by these General <br />Conditions, Special Conditions and Supplemental <br />Conditions and the rights and remedies available <br />hereunder, and, in particular but without limitation, <br />the warranties, guarantees and obligations imposed <br />upon Contractor and those in the Special Conditions <br />and the rights and remedies available to the City, <br />shall be in addition to, and shall not be construed in <br />any way as a limitation of, any rights and remedies <br />available by law, by special guarantee or by other <br />provisions of the Contract Documents. <br /> <br />1.38.4 Should the City or the Contractor suffer injury or <br />damage to its person or property because of any <br />error, omission, or act of the other or of any of their <br />employees or agents or others for whose acts they <br />are legally liable, claim shall be made in writing to the <br />other party within a reasonable time of the first <br />observance of such in jury or damage. <br /> <br />1.39 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL: <br /> <br />City and Contractor knowingly, irrevocably voluntarily and <br />intentionally waive any right either may have to a trial by jury in <br />State or Federal Court proceedings in respect to any action, <br />proceeding, lawsuit or counterclaim based upon the Contract <br />Documents or the performance of the Work there under. <br /> <br />1.40 GOVERNING LAW: <br /> <br />The Contract shall be construed in accordance with and governed <br />by the law of the State of Florida. <br />
