The contractor and the New Providence Board of Education (hereafter "owner") do hereby agree
that the provisions of Title 11 of the Americans With Disabilities Act of 1990 (the "Act") (42 U.S.C. S121
01 et seq.), which prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability by public entities in all services,
programs, and activities provided or made available by public entities, and the rules and regulations
promulgated pursuant there unto, are made a part of this contract. In providing any aid, benefit, or
service on behalf of the owner pursuant to this contract, the contractor agrees that the performance shall
be in strict compliance with the Act. In the event that the contractor, its agents, servants, employees, or
subcontractors violate or are alleged to have violated the Act during the performance of this contract,
the contractor shall defend the owner in any action or administrative proceeding commenced pursuant
to this Act. The contractor shall indemnify, protect, and save harmless the owner, its agents, servants,
and employees from and against any and all suits, claims, losses, demands, or damages, of whatever
kind or nature arising out of or claimed to arise out of the alleged violation. The contractor shall, at its
own expense, appear, defend, and pay any and all charges for legal services and any and all costs and
other expenses arising from such action or administrative proceeding or incurred in connection
therewith. In any and all complaints brought pursuant to the owner's grievance procedure, the contractor
agrees to abide by any decision of the owner which is rendered pursuant to said grievance procedure.
If any action or administrative proceeding results in an award of damages against the owner, or if the
owner incurs any 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 this Agreement, nor shall they be construed to relieve the contractor from any
liability, nor preclude the owner from taking any other actions available to it under any other provisions
of the Agreement or otherwise at law.
