either or anyone for whose acts either may be liable, regardless of whether or not they are caused in
<br />part by a party indemnified hereunder. Such obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge or
<br />otherwise reduce other rights or obligations of indemnity which would otherwise exist as to a party
<br />or person described in this Article.
<br />
<br />In claims against the CITY or its consultants and its contractors, their
<br />subcontractors, sub-sub-contractors, agents or employees by an employee of the CONTRACTOR,
<br />its contractors, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them or anyone for whose acts they may
<br />be liable, the indemnification obligation under this Article 19.1 shall not be limited by a limitation
<br />on amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for the Cost, or a
<br />CONTRACTOR's contractor, under workers' or workmen's compensation acts, disability benefits
<br />acts or other employee benefit acts.
<br />
<br />6.21 Patent and Copyright Indemnification: CONTRACTOR agrees to indemnifY,
<br />defend, save and hold harmless the CITY, its officers, agents and employees, from all damages,
<br />liabilities, losses, claims, fines and fees, and from any and all suits and actions of every name and
<br />description that may be brought against CITY, its officers, agents and employees, on account of any
<br />claims, fees, royalties, or costs for any invention or patent and/or for the infringement of any and all
<br />copyrights or patent rights claimed by any person, firm, or corporation.
<br />
<br />6.21.1 CONTRACTOR shall pay all claims, losses, liens, settlements or judgments of any
<br />nature whatsoever in connection with the foregoing indemnifications including, but not limited to,
<br />reasonable attorney's fees and costs.
<br />
<br />6.21.2 CITY reserves the right to select its own legal counsel to conduct any defense in any
<br />such proceeding and all costs and fees associated therewith including any costs or fees of an appeal
<br />shall be the responsibility of CONTRACTOR under the indemnification agreement. Nothing
<br />contained herein is intended nor shall it be construed to waive CITY'S rights and immunities under
<br />the common law or Florida Statute 768.28 as amended from time to time. This obligation shall not
<br />be construed to negate, abridge, or otherwise reduce any other right or obligation of indemnity
<br />which would otherwise exist as to any party described in this Paragraph and its subparts.
<br />
<br />6.22 Survival of Obligations:
<br />All representations, indemnifications, warranties and guarantees made in, required
<br />by, or given in accordance with this Agreement, as well as all continuing obligations indicated in
<br />the Contract Documents, shall survive final payment, completion and acceptance of the work and
<br />termination or completion of this Agreement.
<br />
<br />6.23 Correction or Removal of Defective Work:.
<br />If required by CITY, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, as directed, either correct all
<br />defective Work, whether or not fabricated, installed or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected
<br />by CITY, remove it from the site and replace it with non-defective Work. CONTRACTOR shall
<br />bear all direct costs of such correction or removal (including but not limited to fees and charges of
<br />engineers, architects and other professionals) made necessary thereby.
