AUDIT OF RECORDS. A. MARCOR agrees that CITY, or its designee, have the right to review, obtain, and copy all records pertaining to the performance of this Agreement.

B. Commercial general liability insurance must meet or exceed the requirements of ISO -CGL Form No. CG 00 01 11 85 or 88. The amount of insurance set forth above will be a combined single limit per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage for the policy coverage. Liability policies will be endorsed to name CITY, its officials, and employees as "additional insureds" under said insurance coverage and to state that such insurance will be deemed "primary" such that any other insurance that may be carried by CITY will be excess thereto. Such insurance must be on an "occurrence," not a "claims made," basis and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to CITY. C. Automobile coverage will be written on ISO Business Auto Coverage Form CA 00 01 06 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto). The Automobile Liability policy must be endorsed to delete the Pollution exclusion and add the Motor Carrier Act endorsement (MCS -90), TL 1005, TL 1007 and/or other endorsements required by federal or state authorities. D. Professional liability coverage will be on an "occurrence basis" if such coverage is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," MARCOR will continue to maintain the insurance in effect for a period of five (5) years after this Agreement expires or is terminated ( "extended insurance "). Such extended insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy that was in effect during the term of this Page 6 of 6 ;11 7 Agreement, and will cover MARCOR for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or omissions of MARCOR, or its officers, employees or agents during the time this Agreement was in effect. If coverage is provided on a "claims made basis," the "Retro Date" must be shown, and must be before the Agreement's effective date or the beginning of performance under the Agreement. If coverage is canceled or not renewed, and not replaced with another claims made policy form with a "Retro Date" before the Agreement's effective date, MARCOR must purchase "extended reporting" coverage for a minimum of five (5) years after termination of this Agreement. E. MARCOR will furnish to CITY duly authenticated Certificates of Insurance evidencing maintenance of the insurance required under this Agreement, endorsements as required herein, and such other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with admitted insurers with a current A.M. Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of "A:VH." Certificate(s) must reflect that the insurer will provide thirty (30) day notice of any cancellation of coverage. MARCOR will require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation imposes no obligation, and to delete the word "endeavor" with regard to any notice provisions. F. Should MARCOR, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at MARCOR's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments due to MARCOR under this Agreement or terminate. 21.
