not limited to, by way of complaint, interpleader, intervention, or any third party practice, any
claims, demands, suits, actions, judgments, or executions, for damages or any other relief, in any
administrative or judicial forum, against the City of Nashua or any of its officers or employees,
in either their official or individual capacity of the City of Nashua, for violations of or infringement
of the copyright or patent laws of the United States or of any other nation. Independent Contractor
agrees to indemnify, to defend, and to hold harmless the City of Nashua, its representatives, and

as a result of or in connection with any claim, whether rightful or otherwise, that any material
prepared by or supplied to Independent Contractor infringes any copyright or that any equipment,
material, or process (or any part thereof) specified by Independent Contractor infringes any patent.
Independent Contractor shall have the right, in order to avoid such claims or actions, to substitute
at its expense non-infringing materials, concepts, products, or processes, or to modify such
infringing materials, concepts, products, or processes so they become non-infringing, or to obtain
the necessary licenses to use the infringing materials, concepts, products, or processes, provided

requirements and be subject to all the terms and conditions of this contract.

completed on the date indicated in the notice or provide Independent Contractor with a written
list of work not completed. With respect to work listed by the City of Nashua as incomplete,
Independent Contractor shall promptly complete the work and the final acceptance procedure
shall be repeated. The date of final acceptance of a project by the City of Nashua shall be the
date upon which the Board of Puble-WerksLibrary Trustees or other designated official accepts
and approves the notice of completion.

nature due in connection with any work performed under the contract and make any and all payroll
