15. Third Parties. Nothing in this IGA shall be deemed to create any right in any person not a Party 
hereto. Nothing contained in this IGA shall create a contractual relationship with or a cause of action 
in favor of a third party against the counties. This IGA is not intended to benefit any third party.  
 
16. Implied Contract Terms. Each provision of law and any terms required by law to be in this IGA 
are a part of this IGA as if fully stated herein.  
 
17. Assignment. No Party to this IGA may assign any of its rights or responsibilities under this IGA, 
either voluntarily or involuntarily, whether by merger, consolidation, dissolution, operation of law, 
or any other manner, except with the prior written consent of the counties. No Party may delegate 
any performance under this IGA, except with the prior written consent of the counties. Any purported 
assignment of rights or delegation of performance in violation of this section is void. 
 
18. Waiver. A Party’s failure or neglect to enforce any term, covenant, condition, right, or duty in this 
IGA is neither a waiver of any term, covenant condition, right, or duty, nor is it deemed to be a 
waiver of that Party's rights or remedies under this IGA. A waiver or extension is only effective if it 
is in writing and signed by the counties. No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy will 
preclude any other or further exercise of any right or remedy. One or more waivers by the counties 
of any term, covenant, condition, right, or duty in this IGA shall not be construed as a waiver of a 
subsequent default or breach of the same covenant, term, condition, right, or duty. 
 
19. Headings and Construction of Agreement. In construing this IGA, all headings and titles are for 
the convenience of the Parties and for organizational purposes only and shall not be considered in

association.  
 
20. Fair Meaning. This IGA is intended to express the mutual intent of the Parties and shall not be 
construed as if prepared by one of the Parties, but rather according to its fair meaning as a whole, as 
if all of the counties had prepared it.

of their employees and with the requirements of A.R.S. §§ 23-214 and 41-4401 (together the “State 
and Federal Immigration Laws”). A breach of the foregoing warranty shall be deemed a material 
breach, and the counties shall have the right to terminate this IGA for such a breach, in addition to 
any other applicable remedies. The counties retain the legal right to inspect the papers of each 
contractor or subcontractor employee who performs work pursuant to this IGA to verify performance 
of the foregoing warranty of compliance with the State and Federal Immigration Laws.

waive the right to bring any legal action or claim in any other court. Any changes in the governing 
laws, rules, and regulations that do not materially affect the counties’ obligations under this IGA 
during the term of this IGA will apply but will not require an Amendment. 
 
26. Material Change in Law or Regulation. In the event of adoption of legislation, regulations, or 
instructions or the initiation of an enforcement action by a governmental agency, any of which 
materially affects the legality of this IGA or the relationship among the counties hereto, the counties 
may propose amendments to this IGA to bring this IGA into conformity with such laws. If the

no oral agreements, understandings, or representations relied upon by the counties. This IGA

modifications or amendments to this IGA must be in writing and signed by the counties.
