penalties imposed upon the City.

public records laws (A.R.S. § 39-121 et seg.) and any documents related to this Agreement may

proprietary data, Contractor must have notified the City pursuant to Mesa Procurement Rules
Section 2.1 or notified the City with a notification statement specifically identifying the trade
secrets or other proprietary data that Contractor believes should remain confidential.
b. In the event the City determines it is legally required to disclose pursuant to law any documents
or information Contractor deems confidential trade secrets or proprietary data, the City, to the
extent possible, will provide Contractor with prompt written notice by certified mail, fax, email
or other method that tracks delivery status of the requirement to disclose the information so
Contractor may seek a protective order from a court having jurisdiction over the matter or obtain
other appropriate remedies. The notice will include a time period for Contractor to seek court
ordered protection or other legal remedies as deemed appropriate by Contractor. If Contractor
does not obtain such court ordered protection by the expiration of said time period, the City
may release the information without further notice to Contractor.
AUDITS AND RECORDS. Contractor must preserve the records related to this Agreement for six
(6) years after completion of the Agreement. The City or its authorized agent reserves the tight to
inspect any records related to the performance of work specified herein. In addition, the City may

Page 13 of 19
EXHIBIT C
MESA STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS
reasonable cause not prohibited by law, then Contractor will, upon notice from the City, remove
any such individual from performance of services under this Agreement.
16. DEFAULT.
a. A party will be in default of the Agreement if that party:
i. Is or becomes insolvent or is a party to any voluntary bankruptcy or receivership

Notice and Opportunity to Cure. In the event a party is in default then the other party will
provide written notice to the defaulting party of the default. The defaulting party will have thirty
(30) days from receipt of the notice to cure the default, unless the default is of a nature that it
is reasonably anticipated to affect the health, safety or welfare of the public and, in such an
event, the non-defaulting party may require a minimum seven (7) days to cure the default from
the date of receipt of the notice; the cure period may be extended by mutual agreement of the
parties, but no cure period may exceed ninety (90) days. A default notice will be deemed to be
sufficient if it is reasonably calculated to provide notice of the nature and extent of such default.
Failure of the non-defaulting party to provide notice of the default does not waive any rights
under the Agreement. Failure of the defaulting party to cure the default will entitle the non-
defaulting party to the election of remedies specific to the party as set forth in section 17 below.
Anticipatory Repudiation. Whenever the City in good faith has reason to question
Contractor's intent or ability to perform, the City may demand that Contractor give a written
assurance of its intent and ability to perform. In the event demand is made and no written
assurance is given within ten (10) calendar days, the City may treat this failure as an
anticipatory repudiation of the Agreement entitling the City to terminate the Agreement in
accordance with section 17(a) below.
17. REMEDIES. The remedies set forth in this Agreement are not exclusive. Election of one remedy
will not preclude the use of other remedies. In the event of default:
a.
The non-defaulting party may terminate the Agreement, and the termination will be effective
immediately or at such other date as specified by the terminating party.
The City may purchase the services or materials required under the Agreement from the open
market, complete required work itself, or have it completed at the expense of Contractor. If the
cost of obtaining substitute services exceeds the contract price in the Agreement, the City may
recover the excess cost by: (i) requiring immediate reimbursement by the Contractor to the
City; (ii) deduction from an unpaid balance due to Contractor; (iii) collection against the proposal
and performance security, if any; (iv) collection against liquidated damages (if applicable); or
(v) a combination of the aforementioned remedies or other remedies as permitted by law.
Costs in this Subsection (b) include any and all, fees, and expenses incurred in obtaining
substitute services and expended in obtaining reimbursement including, but not limited to,
administrative expenses, attorneys’ fees, and costs.

profits had the Agreement been performed to completion.

Agreement for the City becomes an employee or agent of Contractor.
TERMINATION FOR NON-APPROPRIATION AND MODIFICATION FOR BUDGETARY
CONSTRAINT. The City is a governmental agency which relies upon the appropriation of funds
by its governing body to satisfy its obligations. If the City reasonably determines it does not have
funds to meet its obligations under this Agreement, the City will have the right to terminate the
Agreement without penalty on the last day of the fiscal period for which funds were legally available.
In the event of such termination, the City agrees to provide written notice of its intent to terminate
thirty (30) calendar days prior to the stated termination date.

any reason, Contractor will be entitled only to payments authorized under the Agreement for those
services performed or materials provided in accordance with the Agreement up to the date of

appraisal of the materials and services provided and received Contractor's properly prepared final
invoice.

approved in writing and signed by the waiving party. Failure or delay to exercise any rights or
remedies provided herein or by law or in equity, or the acceptance of, or payment for, any services
