Grantee shall save the city harmless from all loss sustained by the city, and defend the city at its expense on account of any suit, judgment, execution, claim or demand whatsoever against the city resulting from negligence on the part of the grantee in the construction, operation or maintenance of its cable television system in the city; and for this purpose grantee shall carry property damage and personal injury insurance with some responsible insurance company or companies qualified to do business in the state of Idaho. The amounts of insurance to be carried for liability due to property damage shall be one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000.00) as to any one person and three hundred thousand dollars ($300,000.00) as to any one occurrence. A current certificate of said insurance bearing the expiration date thereof shall be filed with the city clerk. The grantee shall instruct its insurance agent in writing that the city shall be listed as a "required notice party" with reference to any notice or cancellation or any notice of the need to renew the above described insurance coverage. In the event that the city should receive such a notice, the city clerk shall provide the grantee with a written notice of demand to correct the situation described by the insurance carrier within the time limits provided for by the insurance carrier. Failure to provide said certificate shall be grounds for revocation of this franchise.
The city shall notify grantee in writing ten (10) days after the presentation of any claim or demand, either by suit or otherwise, made against the city on account of any negligence as aforesaid on the part of the grantee. Where any such claim or demand against the city is made by suit or other legal action, written notice thereof shall be given by the city to grantee not less than five (5) days prior to the date upon which an answer to such legal action is due or within ten (10) days after the claim or demand is made upon the city, whichever method yields grantee the larger amount of time within which to prepare an answer.
