<br /> indemnify the City for Claims caused solely by the negligence of the City. If(1) RCW 4.24.115
<br /> applies to a particular Claim, and (2) the bodily injury or damage to property for which the
<br /> Contractor is to indemnify the City is caused by or results from the concurrent negligence of(a)

<br /> Contractor specifically waives any immunity it may have under the State Industrial Insurance
<br /> Law, Title 51 RCW. The Contractor recognizes that this waiver of immunity under Title 51
<br /> RCW was specifically entered into pursuant to the provisions of RCW 4.24.115 and was the
<br /> subject of mutual negotiation. As used in this paragraph: (1) "City" includes the City's officers,
<br /> employees, agents, and representatives and(2) "Claims" include, but is not limited to, any and all
<br /> losses, claims, demands, expenses (including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and litigation
<br /> expenses), suits, judgments, or damage, irrespective of the type of relief sought or demanded,
<br /> such as money or injunctive relief, and irrespective of whether,the damage alleged is bodily
<br /> injury, damage to property, economic loss, general damages, special damages, or punitive
<br /> damages. If, and to the extent, Contractor employs or engages subconsultants or subcontractors,
<br /> then Contractor shall ensure that each such subconsultant and subcontractor(and subsequent tiers
<br /> of subconsultants and subcontractors) shall expressly agree to defend and indemnify the City to
<br /> the extent and on the same terms and conditions as the Contractor pursuant to this paragraph.
