and responsibilities of Subrecipient as the recipient of these funds.
2. Period of Performance This Agreement shall become effective on October 1, 2022 and shall terminate
on September 30, 2023. The obligations of Subrecipient herein survive termination of this Agreement.
3. Description of Services Subrecipient must fulfill all obligations set forth in Subrecipient’s approved
grant application titled: "Central Region COOP / EOP Cloud" and funded at $68,000 (as may have
been modified by the award letter).

Agreement. Subrecipient may use the funds provided under this Agreement only as provided in the

Reporting Requirements Subrecipient must submit quarterly programmatic reports to AZDOHS

April 15 (for the period from January 1 – March 31) 
July 15 (for the period from April 1 – June 30) 
October 15 (for the period from July 1 – September 30) 
 
Subrecipient must use the Quarterly Programmatic Report form (https://azdohs.gov/grant-
program-forms) for these reports.  Subrecipient must provide detailed information on the status of 
completion of the planned activities in the approved application satisfactory to AZDOHS in its sole 
discretion.  Failure to adequately provide such information will result in the Quarterly 
Programmatic Report being rejected by AZDOHS and resubmission will be required.  If the 
program has been fully completed so that there will be no further updates, then the quarterly 
report for the quarter in which the program was completed will be the final report; the report 
should be marked as “final” and must include all pertinent information regarding the program as 
determined solely by AZDOHS.  
 
Final Quarterly Programmatic Report: The final quarterly programmatic report is due no more than 
15 calendar days after the end of the performance period.  Subrecipient may submit a final 
quarterly report prior to the end of the performance period if the scope of the project has been fully 
completed and implemented. The Property Control Form is due with the final quarterly report (if 
applicable).

frequently as monthly but not less than quarterly; submissions must be made via US Mail, 
delivery service (FedEx, UPS, etc.) or in person; submissions via fax or by any electronic

Reimbursement Form provided by AZDOHS staff.  AZDOHS has the right to require Subrecipient 
to provide any documentation and/or information AZDOHS deems necessary to process 
submissions. 
 
Reimbursement requests are only required when expenses have been incurred. The Subrecipient 
shall submit a final reimbursement request, marked as such, for expenses received and invoiced 
prior to the end of the period of performance. The final reimbursement must be received by 
AZDOHS no more than 45 calendar days after the end of the period of performance. Requests for 
reimbursement received by AZDOHS later than 45 calendar days after the end of the period of 
performance will not be paid.   
 
Subrecipients will only be reimbursed for expenses that have been obligated, expended and 
received within the authorized Period of Performance as identified in Paragraph 2 of this 
Agreement. Subrecipients are not authorized to obligate or expend funds prior to the start date of 
the Period of Performance.  Any expenses obligated or expended prior to the Period of 
Performance start date will be deemed unallowable and will not be reimbursed. Any 
expenses/services that occur beyond the Period of Performance (e.g. cell phone service) will be 
deemed unallowable and will not be reimbursed.

the availability of funds appropriated or allocated for this purpose, per ARS 35-154.  If funds are

38. 
Governing Law and Interpretation of This Agreement This Agreement is governed by the laws 
of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.  This Agreement is the 
parties’ complete agreement and replaces the parties’ prior and contemporaneous agreements, 
representations, and understandings pertaining to its subject matter, whether oral or written.  No 
course of dealings or usage of the trade supplements or explains any terms.  A party’s failure to 
insist on strict performance of any term is not a waiver of that term, even if the party accepting or 
acquiescing in the nonconforming performance knows the nature of the performance and fails to 
object.  If any new legislation, laws, ordinances, or rules affect this Agreement, this Agreement 
automatically incorporates the terms of such legislation, laws, ordinances, or rules.  Any term of 
this Agreement that is declared contrary to any current or future law, order, regulation, or rule, or 
that is otherwise invalid, shall be deemed stricken without impairing the validity of the remainder 
of this Agreement. In the event FEMA determines that changes are necessary to this Agreement 
after it has been entered into, including changes to Period of Performance or other terms, 
Subrecipient will be notified of the changes in writing; once notification is made, any subsequent 
request for funds by Subrecipient will constitute Subrecipient’s acceptance of the changes and 
will incorporate the changes into this Agreement.  Except as expressly provided in this 
Paragraph, any amendment to or extension of this Agreement may be made only in a writing 
signed by authorized representatives of both parties.  Any rule of construction to the effect that 
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not apply in interpreting this 
Agreement. 
 
39. 
Licensing Unless otherwise exempted by law, Subrecipient must obtain and maintain all 
licenses, permits, and authority necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. 
 
40. 
Sectarian Requests Funds disbursed under this Agreement may not be used for any sectarian 
purpose or activity, including worship or instruction in violation of the US or Arizona Constitutions.

Indemnification Each party (as "Indemnitor") agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the 
other party (as "Indemnitee") from and against any and all claims, losses, liability, costs, or 
expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees) (hereinafter collectively referred to as "Claims") 
arising out of bodily injury to any person (including death) or property damage, but only to the 
extent such Claims which result in vicarious/derivative liability to the Indemnitee are caused by 
the act, omission, negligence, misconduct, or other fault of the Indemnitor, its officers, officials, 
agents, employees, or volunteers.  The State of Arizona and AZDOHS are self-insured per ARS 
41-621.  If Subrecipient utilizes contractor(s) and/or subcontractor(s), the indemnification clause 
between Subrecipient and contractor(s) and subcontractor(s) shall include the following: 
 
Contractor shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Arizona Department of 
Homeland Security and the State of Arizona, and any jurisdiction or agency issuing any 
permits for any work arising out of this Agreement, and their departments, agencies, 
boards, commissions, universities, officers, officials, agents, and employees (hereinafter, 
“Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, or 
expenses (including court costs, attorneys’ fees, and costs of claim processing, 
investigation and litigation) (hereinafter referred to as “Claims”) for bodily injury or personal 
injury (including death), or loss or damage to tangible or intangible property caused, or 
alleged to be caused, in whole or in part, by the negligent or willful acts or omissions of the 
contractor or any of the directors, officers, agents, or employees or subcontractors of such 
contractor.  This indemnity includes any claim or amount arising out of or recovered under 
the Workers’ Compensation Law or arising out of the failure of such contractor to conform 
to any Federal, State or Local law, statute, ordinance, rule, regulation or court decree. It is 
the specific intention of the parties that the Indemnitee shall, in all instances, except for 
Claims arising solely from the negligent or willful acts or omissions of the Indemnitee, be 
indemnified by such contractor from and against any and all claims. It is agreed that such 
contractor will be responsible for primary loss investigation, defense and judgment costs 
where this indemnification is applicable.  Additionally on all applicable insurance policies, 
contractor and its subcontractors shall name the State of Arizona, and its departments, 
agencies, boards, commissions, universities, officers, officials, agents, and employees as 
an additional insured and also include a waiver of subrogation in favor of the State. 
 
43. 
Termination Each party has the right to terminate this Agreement if the other party fails to 
comply with this Agreement.  A party invoking the right to terminate shall provide written 30 day 
advance notice of all reasons for the termination.  If Subrecipient chooses to terminate this 
Agreement before all deliverables have been delivered, AZDOHS has the right to recover all 
reimbursements made to Subrecipient.  On termination, AZDOHS may procure, on terms that it 
deems appropriate, materials or services to replace those that otherwise would have been 
provided by Subrecipient, and Subrecipient will be liable to AZDOHS for all excess costs incurred 
by AZDOHS in procuring such materials or services. Subrecipient must continue to perform this 
Agreement until the date of termination, as directed in the termination notice. If AZDOHS 
reasonably believes Subrecipient does not intend to, or is unable to fully perform this Agreement, 
AZDOHS may demand in writing that Subrecipient give written assurance of its intent and ability 
to perform.  If Subrecipient fails to provide written assurance within the time specified in the 
demand, AZDOHS may terminate this Agreement. 
 
44. 
Paragraph Headings Paragraph headings in this Agreement are for convenience of reference 
only and do not define, limit, enlarge, or otherwise affect the interpretation of this Agreement. 
 
45. 
Counterparts This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, copies, or 
duplicate originals.  Each such counterpart, copy, or duplicate original shall be deemed an 
original, and collectively they shall constitute one Agreement.

Agreement, that party will immediately notify the other party, and the parties will share all 
information regarding such matter and cooperate with each other in addressing the matter.  The 
parties are independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement will create the 
relationship of partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment between the parties or any of 
their employees, officers, agents, or contractors.  Each party hereby agrees to perform any 
further acts and to execute and deliver any documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry 
out the provisions of this Agreement.
