<br />reason of the terms of, or effects arising from this Agreement. City may make all reasonable
<br />decisions with respect to its representation in any legal proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
<br />to the extent Contractor's services are subject to Civil Code Section 2782.8, the above indemnity
