This indemnification shall survive any termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event that the City assigns its rights under this Agreement as provided for herein, the assignee shall be required to obtain and keep in force and effect a Comprehensive Commercial General Liability Insurance policy insuring against claims for personal injury, death or property damage occurring in, on or about the Project arising out of the ownership, maintenance, operation or use of the Project by the City or such Assignee or any of their respective employees in an amount not less than $3,000,000 per occurrence and $3,000,000 general aggregate.

The end, in the Board's discretion, of the Actual Useful Life of the Artificial Turf Field.


SECTION 13. PERFORMANCE, EVALUATION AND BREACH; REMEDIES.
Time ofthe Essence. Time is of the essence in the parties' performance of their obligations under this Agreement. Should any date fall on a weekend or holiday, the deadline for compliance shall not occur until the next regular business day.
Permitted Delays. The Board shall not be in breach of its obligation to construct the Project in the event of a delay in the performance of such obligations due to unforeseeable causes beyond the Board's control and without the Board's fault or negligence, including but not limited to, delays or halts in construction of the Project which are compelled by court order, acts of God, acts of the public enemy, acts of the United States government, acts of the other party, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, embargoes, inability to obtain certain necessary materials and unusually severe weather or delays of subcontractors due to such cause. The time for the performance of the obligations shall be extended only for the period of the delay if the Board requests it in writing of the City within twenty (20) days after the beginning of any such delay.
Breach. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the event of a default by either party in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, the defaulting party, upon written notice from the other, shall cure or remedy the default not later than sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice. If the default is not capable of being cured within the sixty (60) day period but the defaulting party has commenced action to cure the default and is diligently proceeding to cure the default within the sixty (60) day period, then the sixty (60) day period shall be extended for the length of time that is reasonably necessary to cure the default. If the default is not cured in the time period provided for herein, the aggrieved party may institute such proceedings at law or in equity as may be necessary or desirable in its sole discretion to cure and remedy the default, including but not limited to, proceedings to compel specific performance.

For purposes of this Agreement, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall
|10 10|
constitute an "event of default":
If either party fails to perform, keep or observe any of the material, covenants, conditions, promises, agreements or obligations required under this Agreement; or
If either party makes or furnishes a warranty, representation, statement or certification to the other party which is not true and correct in any material respect; or
Subject to the permitted delays referenced above, the Board abandons or substantially suspends the construction of the Project, and such abandonment or suspension is not cured, ended, or remedied within sixty (60) days of the date the Board receives written demand by the City to cure such default; or
The Board suffers or permits any levy or attachment, material suppliers' or mechanics' lien, or any other lien or encumbrance unauthorized by this Agreement to attach to the Project; or
The Board fails to comply, or cause the School to comply, with the maintenance and other obligations regarding the Project described in Section 8; or
Either party fails to comply with the terms of any other written agreement entered into with the other party relating to the Project.
13.4 Waiver and Estoppel. Any delay by either party in instituting or prosecuting any actions or proceedings or otherwise asserting its rights shall not operate as a waiver of such rights or operate to deprive the delaying party of or limit such rights in any way. No waiver made by either party with respect to any specific default by the other party shall be construed, considered or treated as a waiver of the rights of the waiving party with respect to any other defaults of the other party.
Access to the School. Throughout the Term of the Agreement, any duly authorized representative of the City shall have access to the Project at all reasonable times for the purpose of confirming the Board's compliance with its obligations under this Agreement.

The Board agrees that the City shall have the right and authority to review and audit, from time to time, the Board books and records solely relating to the Project, including, without limitation, general contractor's sworn statements, the contract with the general contractor and subcontracts, purchase orders, waivers of lien, paid receipts and invoices. All such books, records and other documents shall be available at the offices of the Board for inspection, copying, audit and examination at all reasonable times by any duly authorized representative of the Department upon prior reasonable notice to the Board and at the Department's sole cost and expense.
Evaluation. Upon written request by the City, but not more frequently than once on an annual basis, the Board shall submit to the City a written report describing the

IO

maintenance of the Project and all costs attendant thereto. Thereafter, at the City's request, representatives of the City and of the Board shall meet and address any issues and concerns. Should the City reasonably determine, as a result of the review of the report and the site visit, that the Board is not complying with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the parties agree that: (i) the City shall deliver a notice of default as provided for in this Section and the Board shall thereafter have an opportunity to cure (as provided for in this Section 13); or (ii) in the alternative, the City, by written notice to the Board, may terminate this Agreement.

13.8. Enforcement and Remedies. The parties hereto shall have such remedies as may be available at law or in equity for a breach of this Agreement. Such equitable remedies shall include, without limitation, the right to bring a mandamus action and specific performance.
SECTION 14. CONFLICT OF INTEREST; CITY'S AND BOARD'S REPRESENTATIVES NOT INDIVIDUALLY LIABLE.

Conflict of Interest: The Board warrants that no agent, official, or employee of the City shall have any personal interest, direct or indirect, in this Agreement, nor shall any such agent, official or employee participate in any decision relating to this Agreement which affects his or her personal interests or the interests of any corporation, partnership, or association in which he or she is directly or indirectly interested. No agent, official, or employee of either party shall be personally liable to the other party or any successor in interest in the event of any default or breach by the defaulting party or for any amount which may become due to the other party or successor or on any obligation under the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 15. BARRICADES, SIGNS AND PUBLIC RELATIONS.

Barricades, Signs, and Public Relations; City Approval. Prior to the commencement of any demolition or construction activity requiring barricades, the Board shall install a barricade of a type and appearance reasonably satisfactory to the City and constructed in compliance with all applicable federal, state or City laws, ordinances and regulations. The City shall retain the right to approve the maintenance, appearance, color scheme, painting, nature, type, content and design of all barricades.

At the request of the City, the Board shall erect a sign of size and style approved by the Department in a conspicuous location at the Project during the construction of the Project, indicating that the undertaking of the Project is in accordance with City objectives. The City reserves the right to include the name, photograph, artistic rendering of the Project and other pertinent information regarding the Board and the Project in the City's promotional literature and communications.
