8. Any food service or alcohol service shall conform to applicable local, county, state, and federal laws, regulations, licensing requirements, and standards, subject to any limits imposed in this license. 9. The Licensee shall obtain, continuously maintain for the duration of this Agreement, and provide the City prior to execution of this Agreement, and from time to time thereafter, with proof acceptable to the City Manager of commercial general liability insurance coverage, naming the City as an additional insured party. Such insurance shall have an initial limit of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 general aggregate. Said insurance must contain comprehensive coverage to insure against any and all claims arising out of or attributable to the encroachment of the wooden platform, tables, chairs, or any other items set forth in Recital B into the Licensed Premises or other public right-of-way, regardless of whether the Licensee or any of its officers, employees, or agents are negligent in any manner. The certificate of insurance must contain an unqualified guarantee that the City will be provided with 30 days prior written notice of cancellation, termination, non-renewal, or material change in coverage of the insurance policy provided.

The failure of either party to enforce any covenant or condition of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver thereof or of the right of either party to enforce each and every covenant and condition of this License. No provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived unless such waiver shall be in writing. 12. Licensee acknowledges and agrees that the City is the owner of the Licensed Premises, that the license granted under this Agreement involves the permission to enter and use property which is a public right of way, that the public’s rights are paramount, and that the Licensee’s use under this license may not interfere with the public’s rights to the reasonable use of the Licensed Premises. Licensee further acknowledges that its use of the Licensed Premises does not constitute any title, claim of right, or other interest in the Licensed Premises. 13. Violations of a term of this Agreement by Licensee shall result in the suspension of Licensee’s rights hereunder with 24-hour notice to Licensee. 14. This license is personal with the Licensee and does not run with the land. This license shall not be assigned or transferred in any manner by the Licensee to any other person or business entity. The City, in its sole discretion, may authorize the assignment or transfer of this license to a third party by amendment to this Agreement or by a separate license agreement. -3-
