received by the Contractor in performance of this Contract. Contractor acknowledges that all
Materials are the property of the State by and through the ADHS and, as such, shall remain under
the sole direction, management and control of the ADHS. The Contractor is not entitled to a patent
or copyright on these Materials and may not transfer a patent or copyright on them to any other
person or entity. To the extent any copyright in any Materials may originally vest in the Contractor,
the Contractor hereby irrevocably transfers to the ADHS, for and on behalf of the State, all
copyright ownership. The ADHS shall have full, complete and exclusive rights to reproduce,
duplicate, adapt, distribute, display, disclose, publish, release and otherwise use all Materials. The
Contractor shall not use or release these Materials without the prior written consent of the ADHS.
When this Contract is terminated, the disposition of all such Materials shall be determined by the
ADHS. Further, the Contractor agrees to give recognition to the ADHS for its support of any
program when releasing or publishing program Materials.
4.10.3. Notwithstanding the above, if the Contractor is a State agency, the following shall apply instead: It
is the intention of ADHS and Contractor that all material and intellectual property developed under
this Agreement be used and controlled in ways to produce the greatest benefit to the parties to this
Contract and the citizens of the State of Arizona. As used in this paragraph, “Material” means all
written and electronic information, recordings, reports, findings, research information, abstracts,
results, software, data, discoveries, inventions, procedures and processes of services developed by
the Contractor and any other materials created, prepared or received by the Contractor and
subcontractors in performance of this Agreement. “Material” as used herein shall not include any
pre-existing data, information, materials, discoveries, inventions or any form of intellectual property
invented, created, developed or devised by Contractor (or its employees, subcontractors or agents)
prior to the commencement of the services funded by this Agreement or that may result from
Contractor’s involvement in other service activities that are not funded by the Agreement.
4.10.4. Title and exclusive copyright to all Material shall vest in the State of Arizona, subject to any rights
reserved on behalf of the federal government. As State agencies and instrumentalities, both ADHS
and Contractor shall have full, complete, perpetual, irrevocable and non-transferable rights to
reproduce, duplicate, adapt, make derivative works, distribute, display, disclose, publish and
otherwise use any and all Material. The Contractor’s right to use Material shall include the following
rights: the right to use the Material in connection with its internal, non-profit research and
educational activities, the right to present at academic or professional meetings or symposia and
the right to publish in journals, theses, dissertations or otherwise of Contractor’s own choosing.
Contractor agrees to provide ADHS with a right of review prior to any publication or public
presentation of the Material, and ADHS shall be entitled to request the removal of its confidential
information or any other content the disclosure of which would be contrary to the best interest of the
State of Arizona. Neither party shall release confidential information to the public without the prior
expressly written permission of the other, unless required by the State public records statutes or
other law, including a court order. Each party agrees to give recognition to the other party in all
public presentations or publications of any Material, when releasing or publishing them.
4.10.5. In addition, ADHS and Contractor agree that any and all Material shall be made freely available to
the public to the extent it is in the best interest of the State. However, if either party wants to
license or assign an intellectual property interest in the material to a third-party for monetary
compensation, ADHS and Contractor agree to convene to determine the relevant issues of title,
copyright, patent and distribution of revenue. In the event of a controversy as to whether the
Material is being used for monetary compensation or in a way that interferes with the best interest
of the state or ADHS, then the Arizona Department of Administration shall make the final decision.
Notwithstanding the above, “monetary compensation’ does not include compensation paid to an
individual creator for traditional publications in academia (the copyrights to which are Employee-
Excluded Works under ABOR Intellectual Property Policy Section 6-908C.4.), an honorarium or
other reimbursement of expenses for an academic or professional presentation, or an unprofitable
distribution of Material.

service or material, the funds to be returned shall be determined by multiplying the unit of service
cost by the number of services the Contractor did not provide during the Contract term. Where the
price for a deliverable is fixed, but the deliverable has not been completed, the Contractor shall be
paid a pro rata portion of the completed deliverable. In a cost reimbursement contract, the ADHS

Accept a decrease in price offered by the Contractor;

Procurement Officer who signed this Contract. The Contract may be modified only through a Contract
Amendment, Purchase Order and/or Change Order within the scope of the Contract, unless the change is
administrative or otherwise permitted by the Special Terms and Conditions. Changes to the Contract,
including the addition of work or materials, the revision of payment terms, or the substitution of work or
materials, directed by an unauthorized State employee or made unilaterally by the Contractor are violations
of the Contract and of applicable law. Such changes, including unauthorized Contract Amendments,

entitled to any claim under this Contract based on those changes.

Order or Contract. Mere receipt does not constitute final acceptance. The risk of loss for nonconforming
materials shall remain with the Contractor regardless of receipt.
7.2. Mutual Indemnification. Each party (as “indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify, defend 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 of any person (including death) or property damage, but only to the extent that 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.
7.3. Force Majeure.
7.3.1.
Liability and Definition. Except for payment of sums due, neither party shall be liable to the other
nor deemed in default under this Contract if and to the extent that such party’s performance of this
Contract is prevented by reason of force majeure. The term “force majeure” means an occurrence
that is beyond the control of the party affected and occurs without its fault or negligence. Without
limiting the foregoing, force majeure includes acts of God; acts of the public enemy; acts of
terrorism; war; riots; strikes; mobilization; labor disputes; civil disorders; fire; flood; lockouts;
injunctions-interventions not caused by or resulting from the act or failure to act of the parties;

majeure, which such party is unable to prevent by exercising reasonable diligence.
7.3.2.
Exclusions. Force Majeure shall not include the following occurrences:
7.3.2.1. Late delivery of Materials caused by congestion at a manufacturer’s plant or elsewhere, or

occurrence in accordance with this force majeure term and condition; or
7.3.2.3. Inability of either the Contractor or any subcontractor to acquire or maintain any required
insurance, bonds, licenses or permits.
7.3.3.
Notice. If either party is delayed at any time in the progress of the work by force majeure, the
delayed party shall notify the other party in writing of such delay, as soon as is practicable and no
later than the following working day of the commencement thereof, and shall specify the causes of
such delay in such notice. Such notice shall be delivered or mailed certified-return receipt and shall
make a specific reference to this article, thereby invoking its provisions. The delayed party shall
cause such delay to cease as soon as practicable and shall notify the other party in writing when it
has done so. The time of completion shall be extended by Contract Amendment for a period of
time equal to the time that the results or effects of such delay prevent the delayed party from
performing in accordance with this Contract.
7.3.4.
Default. Any delay or failure in performance by either party hereto shall not constitute default
hereunder or give rise to any claim for damages or loss of anticipated profits if, and to the extent
that, such delay or failure is caused by force majeure.
7.4. Third Party Antitrust Violations. The Contractor assigns to the State any claim for overcharges resulting
from antitrust violations to the extent that those violations concern materials or services supplied by third
