<br />
<br />(d) In accordance with the provisions of Section 1727 of the California Labor Code, City,
<br />before making payment to Contractor of money due under a contract for public works,
<br />shall withhold and retain therefrom aU amounts which have been forfeited pursuant to
<br />any stipulation in the Contract, and the terms of Chapter 1, Part 7, Division 2 of the
<br />California Labor Code (commencing with Section 1720). But no sum shall be withheld,
<br />retained or forfeited, except from the final payment, without a full investigation by either
<br />the Division of Labor Law Enforcement or by City.
<br />
<br />It is hereby agreed by the parties to the Agreement that in case all work called for under
<br />the Agreement is not finished or completed on or before the time set forth in this
<br />Agreement, damage will be sustained by City, and that it is and wiHbe impracticable and
<br />extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the actual damage which the City will
<br />sustain in event of and by reason of such delay; it is therefore agreed Contractor will pay
<br />to City the sum calculated at the rate of Five Hundred and No/tOO doUars ($500.00)
<br />per day as liquidated damages for each and every calendar day's delay in finishing the
<br />work in excess of the number of days prescribed, and Contractor agrees to pay said
<br />liquidated damages as herein provided, and in case the same are not paid, agrees that
<br />City may deduct the amount thereof from any monies due or that may become due
<br />under this Agreement.
<br />
<br />It is further agreed that in case the work called for under this Agreement is not
<br />completed in all of its parts and requirements within the number of calendar days
<br />specified, City shall have the right to increase the number of calendar days or not, as
<br />may seem best to serve the interest of City; and if it is decided to increase the said
<br />number of calendar days, City shall further have the right to charge to Contractor, and
<br />deduct from the final payment for the work, aU or any part, as City may deem proper, of
<br />the actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other overhead
<br />expenses of City which are directly chargeable to this Agreement, except that the cost of
<br />final surveys and the preparation of the final estimate shall not be included in such
<br />charges to be paid by Contractor.
<br />
<br />Except as otherwise may be provided herein, Contractor hereby expressly guarantees
<br />for one (1) full year from the date of the final completion of the work under this
<br />Agreement and acceptance thereof by City's City Council, to repair or replace any part of
<br />the work performed hereunder which constitutes a defect resulting from the use of
<br />inferior or defective materials, equipment or workmanship. If, within said period, any
<br />repairs or replacements in connection with the work are, in the opinion of the Manager,
<br />Engineering and Construction, rendered necessary as a result of the use of inferior or
<br />defective materials, equipment or workmanship, Contractor agrees, upon receipt of
<br />notice from City, and without expense to City, to promptly repair or replace such material
<br />or workmanship and/or correct any and aU defects therein. If Contractor, after such
<br />notice, fails to proceed promptly to comply with the terms of this guarantee, City may
<br />perform the work necessary to effectuate such correction and recover the cost thereof
<br />from Contractor or his sureties.
<br />
<br />Any and all other special guarantees which may be applicable to definite parts of the
<br />work under this Agreement shall be considered as an additional guarantee and shall not
<br />reduce or limit the guarantee as provided by Contractor pursuant to this paragraph
<br />during the first year of the Hfe of such guarantee.
<br />
<br />Contractor hereby agrees to indemnify and save harmless City, its Council, officers,
<br />boards, commissions, agents and employees, of and from any and all claims, suits or
<br />actions of every name, ki-nd and description which may be brought against City, its
