abide by any decision of the owner which is rendered pursuant to said grievance procedure. If any action

expense to cure a violation of the ADA which has been brought pursuant to its grievance procedure, the
contractor shall satisfy and discharge the same at its own expense.
The owner shall, as soon as practicable after a claim has been made against it, give written notice thereof
to the contractor along with full and complete particulars of the claim, If any action or administrative
proceeding is brought against the owner or any of its agents, servants, and employees, the owner shall
expeditiously forward or have forwarded to the contractor every demand, complaint, notice, summons,
pleading, or other process received by the owner or its representatives.
It is expressly agreed and understood that any approval by the owner of the services provided by the
contractor pursuant to this contract will not relieve the contractor of the obligation to comply with the Act
and to defend, indemnify, protect, and save harmless the owner pursuant to this paragraph.
It is further agreed and understood that the owner assumes no obligation to indemnify or save harmless
the contractor, its agents, servants, employees and subcontractors for any claim which may arise out of
their performance of this Agreement. Furthermore, the contractor expressly understands and agrees that
the provisions of this indemnification clause shall in no way limit the contractor’s obligations assumed in

owner from taking any other actions available to it under any other provisions of the Agreement or
otherwise at law.
