CONSULTANT hereby agrees to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless CITY, its officers, elected or appointed officials, employees, agents and volunteers from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, expenses, judgments, demands and defense costs (including, without limitation, costs and fees of litigation of every nature or liability of any kind or nature) arising out of or in connection with CONSULTANT's (or CONSULTANT's subcontractors, if any) negligent (or alleged negligent) performance of this Agreement or its failure to comply with any of its obligations contained in this Agreement by CONSULTANT, its officers, agents or employees except such loss or damage which was caused by the sole negligence or willful misconduct of CITY.

This indemnity shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. 22-11263/282167 3 of 13 The policy limits do not act as limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by CONSULTANT.

In no event shall the cost to defend charged to CONSULTANT exceed CONSULTANT's proportionate percentage of fault. However, notwithstanding the previous sentence, in the event one or more other defendants to the claims and/or litigation is unable to pay its share of defense costs due to bankruptcy or dissolution of the business, CONSULTANT shall meet and confer with CITY and other defendants regarding unpaid defense costs. The duty to indemnify, including the duty and the cost to defend, is limited as provided in California Civil Code Section 2782.8. C. Regardless of whether subparagraph A or B applies, CITY shall be reimbursed by CONSULTANT for all costs and attorney's fees incurred by CITY in enforcing this obligation. This indemnity shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by CONSULTANT. 22-11263/282167 4 of 13 9. PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE CONSULTANT shall obtain and furnish to CITY a professional liability insurance policy covering the work performed by it hereunder.

The above- mentioned insurance shall not contain a self-insured retention without the express written consent of CITY; however an insurance policy "deductible" of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less is permitted. A claims-made policy shall be acceptable if the policy further provides that: A. The policy retroactive date coincides with or precedes the initiation of the scope of work (including subsequent policies purchased as renewals or replacements). B. CONSULTANT shall notify CITY of circumstances or incidents that might give rise to future claims. CONSULTANT will make every effort to maintain similar insurance during the required extended period of coverage following PROJECT completion. If insurance is terminated for any reason, CONSULTANT agrees to purchase an extended reporting provision of at least two (2) years to report claims arising from work performed in connection with this Agreement.

CONSULTANT shall maintain the foregoing insurance coverage in force until the work under this Agreement is fully completed and accepted by CITY. The requirement for carrying the foregoing insurance coverage shall not derogate from CONSULTANT's defense,hold harmless and indemnification obligations as set forth in this Agreement. CITY or its representative shall at all times have the right to demand the original or a copy of the policy of insurance. CONSULTANT shall pay, in a prompt and timely manner,the premiums on the insurance hereinabove required. 11. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR CONSULTANT is, and shall be, acting at all times in the performance of this Agreement as an independent contractor herein and not as an employee of CITY. 22-11263/282167 6 of 13 CONSULTANT shall secure at its own cost and expense, and be responsible for any and all payment of all taxes, social security, state disability insurance compensation, unemployment compensation and other payroll deductions for CONSULTANT and its officers, agents and employees and all business licenses, if any, in connection with the PROJECT and/or the services to be performed hereunder. 12.

The Town provides an additional amount through health reimbursement accounts for employees hired before October 1,2018(July 1,2018 for AFSCME employees and August 22, 2018 for TEA employees)as follows: The maximum additional Town contribution is: ■ The Kaiser Region 1 single premium for retirees who elect single coverage, less the PEMHCA minimum amount. ■ The Kaiser Region 1 single premium plus 90%of the Kaiser Region 1 premium for the coverage elected less the Kaiser Region 1 single premium for retirees who elect 2-party and family coverage, less the PEMHCA minimum amount. The maximum amounts are determined as follows: ■ Kaiser Basic premiums are used at all ages for employees who retired before February 1, 2016. ■ Kaiser Basic premiums are used until Medicare eligibility and Kaiser Medicare premiums are used after Medicare eligibility for employees who retired on or after February 1,2016. ■ The total Town contribution, including the PEMHCA minimum, is subject to the"5% unequal method"PEMHCA rules. The Town joined PEMHCA in 1991. As requested,our actuarial valuation reports will include recommended contributions and the plan's funded status. We will prepare roll-forward GASBS 75 accounting information reports and the CERBT actuarial information packet. We can meet with the Town and its auditors,as needed,to discuss and review our reports. We will assist the Town in implementing new GASB requirements and pronouncements related to the OPEB plan and will provide ongoing professional consultation. The Town plans on entering into an agreement with the successful bidder for a period of five years starting with 2021/22 and ending with 2025/26. This period will include full biennial actuarial valuations as of June 30, 2021,June 30,2023,and June 30,2025. Bartel Associates has prepared the Town's OPEB actuarial valuation reports since 2008 and its GASBS 75 accounting information reports since 2018. Ca1PERS Valuation Reviews The Town has requested the actuary provide annual reviews of its Ca1PERS Miscellaneous and Safety pension plans. These reviews will include projected contributions,projected funded status, and the impact of proposed Additional Discretionary Payments. CalPERS issued its June 30, 2020 actuarial valuation reports during July 2021. It will also issue Bartel Associates, LLC 1 Town of Los Gatos DocuSign Envelope ID: 1129843A-3367-47F8-9EDA-3EF7540254C0 SECTION 1 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND PLAN valuation reports as of June 30, 2021 through June 30, 2024 within the five-year contract period of 2021/22 through 2025/26. Our proposal includes CalPERS reviews for these five valuation dates. We will provide ongoing professional consultation for the Town's Ca1PERS pension plans. Bartel Associates has prepared Ca1PERS valuation reviews for the Town since 2000. Ca1PERS GASBS 68 Accounting Information Reports Ca1PERS provides GASBS 68 accounting information reports for agent plans. However, it provides only information that can be used as the basis for GASBS 68 reporting but does not provide individual agency accounting information reports for risk pool plans. The Town's Ca1PERS Miscellaneous pension plan is an agent plan. The Town's Ca1PERS Safety Classic and PEPRA pension plans are risk pool plans. The Town has requested the actuary to provide GASBS 68 accounting information reports for its Safety risk pool plans for the fiscal years ending within the five-year contract period of 2021/22 through 2025/26,that is for the four fiscal years ending June 30,2022 through June 30,2025. The Town has received a GASBS 68 accounting information report for the fiscal year ended June 30,2021. The report for the year ending June 30, 2026 will be done after June 30, 2026. We will assist the Town in implementing new GASB requirements and pronouncements related to the risk pool plans and will provide ongoing professional consultation. Bartel Associates has prepared the Town's Safety risk pool GASBS 68 accounting information reports since 2016. Project Approach OPEB Actuarial Valuation Process Our OPEB actuarial valuation process includes the following steps: ■ Data Collection-The Town will provide documentation of the plan provisions, healthcare providers, premiums, asset information, funding policy, and participant census information. ■ Data Review-We will review the requested information and provide a list of any questions and recommendations to improve data quality, when appropriate. ■ Methods and Assumptions- We will recommend the actuarial assumptions and methods with the Town's input.

After the Town's review and comments,we will provide a final actuarial valuation report. ■ CERBT Valuation Packet— We will provide a draft CERBT Valuation Packet required by Ca1PERS for agencies funding with the California Employers' Retiree Benefit Trust Fund (CERBT). Our actuarial valuation report meets all CERBT requirements.

We use ProVal to develop the economic scenarios used for the stochastic projections. Our asset class capital market assumptions are based on surveys of future return,volatility, and correlation expectations of a number of investment advisors. Our procedures for quality control include the checking of results by a second actuary and the review of the report and presentation materials by senior actuaries. ■ Preliminary Results Meeting-We will meet with the Town to review the preliminary results. After the Town's review and comments,we will provide a final report. Our Ca1PERS review reports contain: ■ A summary of historical participant,contribution, and funded status information provided in past Ca1PERS's actuarial valuation reports, including liability and contribution changes between the two most recent actuarial valuation reports available. ■ A projection of employer contributions,as a percentage of payroll and in dollars, showing the most likely results, along with the 25th and 751 percentiles, from 1,000 stochastic economic trials. ■ Normal cost and amortization payments components of the 50th percentile results as a percentage of payroll and as dollar amounts. ■ Funded status projection showing the 25th, 50th and 75th percentiles from the stochastic analysis. ■ Saving impact of paying off selected short and long period amortization bases. ■ Summary of actuarial assumptions used for the projections and analyses.

Fees might be higher, for example, if the project scope changes or the Town needs additional work. Our fee assumes: ■ Participant census data requested will be provided completely and accurately in an Excel workbook with one record per participant. ■ OPEB costs and liabilities will be provided using one funding method and one set of assumptions. ■ We will provide a draft of the CERBT Valuation Packets required by Ca1PERS. The CERBT Valuation Packet includes a Certification of Funding Policy,a Summary of Actuarial Information, and a Certification of Actuarial Information. ■ We will provide GASBS 75 accounting information reports using the prior fiscal year-ends as measurement dates. • Our GASBS 75 estimated fees assume there will be no changes in OPEB plan provisions, healthcare plan providers,or funding policy, investment policy, or OPEB trust between the actuarial valuation date and the financial statement dates. Bartel Associates, LLC 15 Town of Los Gatos DocuSign Envelope ID: 1129843A-3367-47F8-9EDA-3EF7540254C0 SECTION 3 COST PROPOSAL • GASBS 75 information will be presented for the plan as a whole with no breakdowns by benefit or by employee group. • Our GASBS 75 information reports will include the actuarial information needed by the Town and its auditor to assist in preparing the Town's financial statements. Our estimated fees do not include draft OPEB footnotes. • Our GASBS 75 reports will not contain information about the number of covered employees on measurement dates that are not valuation dates or total covered employee compensation in all years if that information is not provided to us. Our estimated fees do not include an amount for reviewing census data files for fiscal years between valuation dates. If the Town would like us to do so, our fees will be higher. Our fees may be higher if: ■ Participant census data is not complete,accurate, or not provided in an Excel workbook with one record per participant. ■ Results are needed separately for employee groups. ■ Results are needed for alternative actuarial assumptions, funding policies, or plan designs. ■ The Town makes any healthcare provider, plan provision,funding policy, investment policy, or OPEB trust changes between the actuarial valuation dates and the financial statement dates. ■ The Town requests assistance with its OPEB footnotes. ■ The Town requests additional meetings. Our fee for additional meetings will be based on our billing rates,the time needed for the meetings,any additional presentation material, and meeting preparation time. ■ The Town makes changes that will affect the valuation results after the valuation is begun or requests additional work after the valuation is completed, including changing OPEB plan provisions,actuarial assumptions,healthcare plan options, funding policy, investment policy, OPEB trust,or any of the data provided for the valuation. ■ Time for consultation and questions after delivering the actuarial valuation report or GASBS 75 accounting information reports, as applicable, will be billed as additional time, outside the budget for the projects addressed in this proposal, based on time spent and our hourly billing rates. The Town should therefore set up an appropriate budget for any additional anticipated or potential consultation needed.
