City of Malibu Loan and License Agreement for Display of Art Work
 
The City wishes to install a temporary public exhibition in Malibu City Hall, on the City’s website, as well as at local businesses (the “Exhibition”) consisting of art pieces including framed, digital and analog (such as photography and film), and other art deemed appropriate by the City (the “Art Work”) from the “Lender” (artist submitting artwork for the The Birds and the Bees, A Celebration of Spring in Malibu Art Exhibtion).

Authority to Enter into Agreement 
The Lender warrants that the Lender is the sole and exclusive original artist of the Art Work and retains all rights associated with ownership, including the authority to license the use of the Art Work, or the Lender warrants that the Lender has obtained all rights, authorizations, and permissions from the original artist to lend the Art Work to the City for public exhibition and to enter into this Agreement. If the Lender is not the original artist of the Art Work, the Lender shall provide sufficient proof of authorization from the original artist to the City prior to the City’s acceptance of the Art Work. In the event that it is legally determined that the Lender is not the copyright owner of the Art Work, the Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the City as set forth in the Agreement. 
City warrants that it is duly authorized to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations hereunder. 

Ownership of the Art Work 
The Lender retains all rights, including copyright and other intellectual property rights, to the Art Work. The Lender retains the right to reproduce, modify, print, enter into other non-exclusive licenses, or sell the Art Work or copyrights in the Art Work. The City expressly acknowledges that it has no rights to the Art Work, except those rights agreed to in this Agreement.
 
Nature of Exhibition 
The Birds and the Bees, A Celebration of Spring in Malibu art exhibition may take place at times between March 20, 2020 and June 1, 2020, which involves the hanging and display of the Art Work in public spaces and local businesses.

Lender hereby acknowledges the rights of integrity and attribution conferred by Section 106A (a), paragraphs (2) and (3) of Title 17 of the U.S. Code, the California Art Preservation Act (Civil Code §987) and any other rights of the same nature granted by federal, state or international laws, and of his/her own free will hereby waives such rights with respect to the City’s usage or use of the Art Work consistent with the Agreement and the right to receive notice of City’s intent to take any such action.

Lender expressly acknowledges that the City shall retain sole and complete discretion and control over placement of the Art Work. Lender recognizes that Lender’s Art Work may be located within City Hall, on the City’s website, or within one of the participating City Businesses. Should Lender object to, or disapprove of, the placement or location of the Art Work, Lender may demand the return of the Art Work as set forth in this Agreement. Lender will be responsible for all costs and securing all materials and transportation related to transporting the Art Work. 

Loan Period 
The loan period shall be deemed to commence upon the delivery of the Art Work to the City at a time agreed upon by the Parties, and upon the City’s acceptance of the delivered Art Work. The loan period shall terminate upon the exchange of the possession and control of the Art Work from the City to the Lender or any authorized representative. (This loan period shall be referred to as the “Loan Period.”) 
Each Art Work shall be deemed on loan to the City during the Loan Period. By mutual written agreement, the Art Work may be removed earlier than said date should its materials or quality in any way be compromised by natural or man-made forces, or should Lender demand the return of the Art Work, or other unforeseen circumstances. 

Compensation 
Lender agrees to loan the City the Art Work during the Loan Period free of charge. Lender agrees that City is not responsible for any costs, rents, expenses, fees, royalties, or otherwise associated with the display of the Art Work.
 
Installation and De-Installation

Lender shall accept return of the Art Work by the City at the termination of the Loan Period. Upon request, a release waiver will be signed by Lender that states after reviewing the condition of Art Work, the Lender waives all claims for damages and equity against the City and will acknowledge that the City is no longer in possession or control of the Art Work. The Lender will coordinate a de-installation and pickup or delivery date with the City. The Lender is responsible for securing materials and transportation for transporting Art Work from City Hall. 

Return of Art Work 
Lender shall accept return of the Art Work by the City at the termination of the Loan Period. If the City, after making reasonable efforts and through no fault of its own, shall be unable to return the Art Work within six months after such termination, then the City may place the Art Work in public storage for the account of Lender or may retain possession and charge storage fees at the rates quoted by the Licensed Public Warehouse, and carry insurance on the Art Work, and the City shall have a lien for the storage fees and cost of insurance. If the Art Work has not been reclaimed after two years from the termination of the Agreement, the City shall have the right and power to sell the Art Work at auction to satisfy the lien, pursuant to applicable law. At any such auction the City shall have the right to bid on the Art Work. 
If there is a change in ownership of the Art Work during the Loan Period, the City will  require that the new owner establish the legal right to receive the Art Work by providing the City with satisfactory proof before the City will relinquish the Art Work to the new owner. 

Insurance 
The City shall maintain liability coverage for any third party claims for damage or destruction of property, bodily injury, or death arising out of exhibition of the Art Work at the Location. The City shall secure fine art property coverage for the schedule of Art Work during the period in which it has the Art Work under its care, custody, and control by providing that schedule to the City’s Alliant Insurance representative for coverage under California Joint Powers Insurance Authority Property Program if the value of the schedule of Art Work is under $1 million.

Safekeeping, Security, and Risk  
Lender expressly acknowledges that the Art Work will be located during the Exhibition in an unsecured public location inside of a public building or local business that is easily accessible, or on the City’s website. Lender expressly acknowledges that because the Art Work will be displayed in public buildings or local business, or on the City’s website, it will not receive the same protections and security as at a formal art showing, museum, or exhibit. 
Lender acknowledges and agrees that City will provide no additional security for the Art Work beyond the current security measures in place at City facilities and on the City’s website and whatever security measures are used and implemented in the participating local businesses. 
Lender bears sole responsibility for obtaining and maintaining insurance for the Art Work while it is in transit to and from City Hall unless the shipping of the Art Work has been arranged by the City.

Lender hereby releases and discharges the City, including without limitation, its officers, employees, agents, volunteers, and representatives, from any and all claims, demands, and causes of action that Lender may have against it for use of the Art Work, including, but not limited to, any claims based on the right of privacy, the right of publicity, copyright, libel, or slander.
