<br /> respective officials, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, and designated
<br /> volunteers from and against any and all claims, loss, liability, damage, including but not

<br /> employees, agents, and designated volunteers.

<br /> insurance obligations contained in Section 7(B).
<br /> The indemnity in this Section 7(A) is unlimited as to amount or duration and is

<br /> assigns, and shall survive termination of this Amended and Restated Agreement for the
<br /> full period of time allowed by law.
<br /> B. Insurance.
<br /> The Authority shall acquire such insurance protection as is necessary to protect
<br /> the interests of the Authority and the Parties. At a minimum, the Authority shall procure
<br /> and maintain insurance during the term of this Amended and Restated Agreement under
<br /> the terms established in Attachment F, in the amounts established by the Board of
<br /> Directors upon recommendations from the Joint Executive Directors, against claims that
<br /> mayarise from or in connection with this Amended and Restated Agreement. The
<br /> Authority, at no cost to the Parties, is responsible for the payment of all premiums,
<br /> deductibles, and self-insured retention amounts for such insurance.
<br /> It shall be a requirement under this Amended and Restated Agreement that any
<br /> available insurance proceeds broader than, or in excess of, the specified minimum
<br /> insurance coverage requirements and/or limits shall be available to Livermore and
<br /> Pleasanton. Furthermore, the requirements for coverage shall be (1) the minimum
<br /> coverage specified in this Amended and Restated Agreement; or (2) the broader
<br /> coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds available to the Authority; whichever is
<br /> greater. Coverage limits shall be established by the Board of Directors,as recommended
<br /> by the Joint Executive Directors. No representation is made that the minimum insurance
<br /> requirements in this Amended and Restated Agreement are sufficient to cover the
<br /> Authority's obligations.
