The State of California (State) shall not be liable for any injuries or damages to persons or property resulting from acts or omissions by the Agency or its directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, successors, assigns, contractors or consultants in carrying out any action or activity pursuant to this Oversight Agreement. Neither OTSC nor the State may be deemed to be a party to any contract entered into by the Agency or its directors, officers, employees, agents, successors, assigns, contractors or consultants in carrying out any action or activity pursuant to this Oversight Agreement. 17. Third Party Actions. In the event that the Agency is a party to any suit or claim for damages or contribution to which OTSC is not a party, relating to a Property or group of Properties subject to this Agreement, the Agency will notify OTSC in writing within ten (10) days after service of the complaint in the third-party action. However, failure to give such notice within 10 days will not be a material breach of this agreement, and this requirement confers no rights on any third parties not party to this Agreement. 18. Reservation of Rights. OTSC and the Agency each reserve the following rights. a. OTSC reserves its right to pursue cost recovery under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Acf of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended, California Health and Safety Code sections 25201.9,25343,25360,33459.3, subdivision (m) and any other law. The Agency reserves its rights to pursue cost recovery under the California Health and Safety Code section 33459- 33459.8 (Polanco Act) and any other applicable section of the law. b. Nothing in this Oversight Agreement is intended or shall be construed to limit, preclude or affect the authority of OTSC to pursue any legal, equitable or administrative remedies pursuant to state or federal law or to take any action authorized by law or equity to protect public health and safety or the environment and recovering the costs thereof, including DTSC's authority to take action, or require other persons to take action, under chapter 6.5 or chapter 6.8 of division 20 of the Health and Safety Code or under the Polanco Act and to recover OTSC's costs for those actions. c. Nothing in this Oversight Agreement shall constitute or be construed as a waiver, defense to, or limitation on of the Agency's rights (including any covenant not to sue or release), with respect to any claim, cause of action, or demand in law or equity that the Agency may have against any person, as defined in section 101 (21) of CERCLA, or Health and Safety Code section 25319, who is not a signatory to this Oversight Agreement. 19. Compliance with Applicable Laws. Nothing in this Oversight Agreement relieves the Agency from complying with all applicable laws and regulations, and the Agency will conform to all actions required by this Oversight Agreement to all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations. 20. California Law. This Oversight Agreement shall be governed, performed and interpreted under the laws of the State of California. 21. Parties Bound. This Oversight Agreement applies to and is binding, jointly and severally, upon each signatory and upon any successor agency of either the Agency or the State of California that may have responsibility for and jurisdiction over the subject matter of this Oversight Agreement. No change in the ownership or corporate or business status of a Property or group of Properties or any owner of a Property or group of Properties shall alter any signatory's responsibilities under this Oversight Agreement. 22. Severability. If any portion of this Oversight Agreement is ultimately determined not to be enforceable, that portion will be severed from the Oversight Agreement and the severability shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining terms of the Oversight Agreement.
