verify the accuracy and appropriateness of all cost and pricing data, including data used to negotiate this 
Agreement and any amendments. The City reserves the right to decrease the total amount of Agreement 
price or payments made under this Agreement or request reimbursement from the Contractor following 
final contract payment on this Agreement if, upon audit of the Contractor's records, the audit discloses the

a similar provision in all of its contracts with subcontractors providing goods or services under the

cost and pricing data, and the cost discrepancies exceed 1% of the total Agreement billings, the Contractor

change in this Agreement, thereby materially increasing or decreasing the scope of work, cost of goods, 
cost of performance, or Project schedule, the goods or services will be performed as directed by the City. 
However, before any modified work is started, a written amendment must be approved and executed by 
the City and the Contractor. Such amendment must not be effective until approved by the City. Additions 
to, modifications, or deletions from this Agreement as provided herein may be made, and the 
compensation to be paid to the Contractor may accordingly be adjusted by mutual agreement of the 
Parties. It is distinctly understood and agreed that no claim for extra work done or materials furnished by 
Docusign Envelope ID: B39CADDA-3E26-4361-82FB-8905DC5FA4E1

the Contractor will be allowed by the City except as provided herein, nor must the Contractor do any work 
or furnish any materials not covered by this Agreement unless such work is first authorized in writing. Any 
such work or materials furnished by the Contractor without prior written authorization will be at 
Contractor's own risk, cost, and expense, and Contractor hereby agrees that without written authorization 
Contractor will make no claim for compensation for such work or materials furnished. 
 
5.3 Termination for Convenience. The City and the Contractor hereby agree to the full performance 
of the covenants contained herein, except that the City reserves the right, at its discretion and without 
cause, to terminate or abandon any purchase or service provided for in this Agreement, or abandon 
any portion of the Project for which the Contractor has performed. In the event the City abandons or 
suspends the purchase or services, or any part of the purchase or services as provided in this 
Agreement, the City will notify the Contractor in writing and immediately after receiving such notice, 
the Contractor must discontinue advancing the work specified under this Agreement. Upon such 
termination, abandonment, or suspension, the Contractor must deliver to the City all drawings, plans, 
specifications, special provisions, estimates and other work entirely or partially completed, together 
with all unused materials supplied by the City. The Contractor must appraise the goods or services 
Contractor has completed and submit Contractor's appraisal to the City for evaluation. The City may

receive compensation in full for goods provided or services performed to the date of such 
termination. The fee will be paid in accordance with Section IV of this Agreement, and as mutually 
agreed upon by the Contractor and the City. If there is no mutual agreement on payment, the final 
determination will be made in accordance with the Disputes provision in this Agreement. However, in 
no event may the payment exceed the payment set forth in this Agreement nor as amended in 
accordance with Alteration in Character of Work. The City will make the final payment within 60 days 
after the Contractor has delivered the last of the partially completed items and the Parties agree on 
the final payment. If the City is found to have improperly terminated the Agreement for cause or 
default, the termination will be converted to a termination for convenience in accordance with the 
provisions of this Agreement. 
5.4 Termination for Cause. The City may terminate this Agreement for Cause upon the occurrence of any 
one or more of the following events: in the event that (a) the Contractor fails to perform pursuant to the 
terms of this Agreement, (b) the Contractor is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, (c) the Contractor makes 
a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, (d) a trustee or receiver is appointed for Contractor or

regulations or orders of any public body having jurisdiction, or (g) the Contractor fails to cure default within 
the time requested. Where Agreement has been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any 
rights of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. 
 
5.5 Indemnification. The Contractor (lndemnitor) must indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless the 
City and its officers, officials, agents and employees (lndemnitee) from any and all claims, actions, 
liabilities, damages, losses or expenses (including court costs, attorneys' fees and costs of claim 
processing, investigation and litigation) (Claims) caused or alleged to be caused, in whole or in part, 
by the wrongful, negligent or willful acts, or errors or omissions of the Contractor or any of its owners, 
officers, directors, agents, employees, or subcontractors in connection with this Agreement. This 
Docusign Envelope ID: B39CADDA-3E26-4361-82FB-8905DC5FA4E1

indemnity includes any claim or amount arising out of or recovered under workers' compensation law 
or on account of the failure of the Contractor to conform to any federal, state or local law, statute, 
ordinance, rule, regulation or court decree. The Contractor must indemnify lndemnitee from and 
against any and all Claims, except those arising solely from lndemnitee's own negligent or willful acts 
or omissions. The Contractor is responsible for primary loss investigation, defense and judgment 
costs where this indemnification applies. In consideration of the award of this Agreement, the 
Contractor agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against lndemnitee for losses arising from or 
related to this Agreement. The obligations of the Contractor under this provision survive the 
termination or expiration of this Agreement. 
 
5.6 Insurance Requirements. Contractor must procure insurance under the terms and conditions and 
for the amounts of coverage set forth in Exhibit C against claims that may arise from or relate to 
performance of the work under this Agreement by Contractor and its agents, representatives, 
employees, and subcontractors. Contractor and any subcontractors must maintain this insurance 
until all of their obligations have been discharged, including any warranty periods under this 
Agreement. These insurance requirements are minimum requirements for this Agreement and in no 
way limit the indemnity covenants contained in this Agreement. The City in no way warrants that the 
minimum limits stated in Exhibit C are sufficient to protect the Contractor from liabilities that might 
arise out of the performance of the work under this Agreement by the Contractor, the Contractor’s 
agents, representatives, employees, or subcontractors. Contractor is free to purchase such additional 
insurance as may be determined necessary. 
 
5.7 Cooperation and Further Documentation. The Contractor agrees to provide the City such other

5.11 Completeness and Accuracy of Contractor's Work. The Contractor must be responsible for the 
completeness and accuracy of Contractor's services, data, and other work prepared or compiled 
under Contractor's obligation under this Agreement and must correct, at Contractor's expense, all

accepted or approved the Contractor's work will in no way relieve the Contractor of any of Contractor's 
responsibilities. 
 
5.12 Withholding Payment. The City reserves the right to withhold funds from the Contractor's 
payments up to the amount equal to the claims the City may have against the Contractor until such 
time that a settlement on those claims has been reached. 
 
5.13 City's Right of Cancellation. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement is subject to 
cancellation by the City under the provisions of Section 38-511, Arizona Revised Statutes (A.R.S.). 
 
5.14 Independent Contractor. For this Agreement the Contractor constitutes an independent 
contractor. Any provisions in this Agreement that may appear to give the City the right to direct the 
Contractor as to the details of accomplishing the work or to exercise a measure of control over the 
work means that the Contractor must follow the wishes of the City as to the results of the work only. 
These results must comply with all applicable laws and ordinances. 
 
5.15 Project Staffing. Prior to the start of any work under this Agreement, the Contractor must assign

prescribed in the Agreement. The City may acknowledge its acceptance of such personnel to furnish

qualifications of the new personnel to the City for prior approval. The Contractor will maintain an 
adequate and competent staff of qualified persons, as may be determined by the City, throughout the 
performance of this Agreement to ensure acceptable and timely completion of the Scope of Work. If

Docusign Envelope ID: B39CADDA-3E26-4361-82FB-8905DC5FA4E1

of the Party (financial inability excepted), performance of that act may be excused, but only for the 
period of the delay, if the Party provides written notice to the other Party within ten days of such act.

from the date written notice is received by the other Party. 
 
5.18 Compliance with Federal Laws. Contractor understands and acknowledges the applicability of

contractor who fails, or whose subcontractors fail, to comply with A.R.S. § 23-214(A). Therefore, 
Contractor agrees Contractor and each subcontractor it uses warrants their compliance with all 
federal immigration laws and regulations that relate to their employees and their compliance with§ 
23-214, subsection A. A breach of this warranty will be deemed a material breach of the Agreement 
and may be subject to penalties up to and including termination of the Agreement. City retains the 
legal right to inspect the papers of any Contractor’s or subcontractor’s employee who provides goods 
or services under this Agreement to ensure that the Contractor and subcontractors comply with the 
warranty under this provision. 
 
5.21 Lawful Presence Requirement. A.R.S. §§ 1-501 and 1-502 prohibit the City from awarding a 
contract to any natural person who cannot establish that such person is lawfully present in the United 
States. To establish lawful presence, a person must produce qualifying identification and sign a City-
provided affidavit affirming that the identification provided is genuine. This requirement will be 
imposed at the time of contract award. This requirement does not apply to business organizations 
such as corporations, partnerships, or limited liability companies. 
 
5.22 Forced Labor of Ethnic Uyghurs Prohibited. By entering into this Agreement, Contractor certifies 
and agrees Contractor does not currently use and will not use for the term of this Agreement: (i) the 
forced labor of ethnic Uyghurs in the People's Republic of China; or (ii) any goods or services produced 
by the forced labor of ethnic Uyghurs in the People's Republic of China; or (iii) any contractors, 
subcontractors or suppliers that use the forced labor or any goods or services produced by the forced 
labor of ethnic Uyghurs in the People's Republic of China.

retained to solicit or secure this Agreement upon an agreement or understanding for a commission, 
percentage, brokerage, or contingent fee, and that no member of the Chandler City Council, or any 
City employee has any interest, financially, or otherwise, in Contractor’s firm. For breach or violation 
of this warrant, the City may annul this Agreement without liability or, at its discretion, to deduct from 
the Agreement price or consideration, the full amount of such commission, percentage, brokerage, 
or contingent fee. 
Docusign Envelope ID: B39CADDA-3E26-4361-82FB-8905DC5FA4E1

5.24 Non-Waiver Provision. The failure of either Party to enforce any of the provisions of this 
Agreement or to require performance of the other Party of any of the provisions hereof must not be 
construed to be a waiver of such provisions, nor must it affect the validity of this Agreement or any 
part thereof, or the right of either Party to thereafter enforce each and every provision. 
 
5.25 Disclosure of Information Adverse to the City’s Interests. To evaluate and avoid potential conflicts 
of interest, the Contractor must provide written notice to the City, as set forth in this Section, of any 
work or services performed by the Contractor for third parties that may involve or be associated with 
any real property or personal property owned or leased by the City. Such notice must be given seven 
business days prior to commencement of the services by the Contractor for a third party, or seven 
business days prior to an adverse action as defined below. Written notice and disclosure must be sent 
to the City’s Purchasing and Materials Manager. An adverse action under this Agreement includes, but 
is not limited to: (a) using data as defined in the Agreement acquired in connection with this 
Agreement to assist a third party in pursuing administrative or judicial action against the City; or (b) 
testifying or providing evidence on behalf of any person in connection with an administrative or 
judicial action against the City; or (c) using data to produce income for the Contractor or its employees 
independently of performing the services under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of 
the City. Contractor represents that except for those persons, entities, and projects identified to the 
City, the services performed by the Contractor under this Agreement are not expected to create an 
interest with any person, entity, or third party project that is or may be adverse to the City’s interests. 
Contractor's failure to provide a written notice and disclosure of the information as set forth in this 
Section constitute a material breach of this Agreement. 
 
5.26 Data Confidentiality and Data Security. As used in the Agreement, data means all information, 
whether written or verbal, including plans, photographs, studies, investigations, audits, analyses, samples, 
reports, calculations, internal memos, meeting minutes, data field notes, work product, proposals, 
correspondence and any other similar documents or information prepared by, obtained by, or transmitted 
to the Contractor or its subcontractors in the performance of this Agreement. The Parties agree that all 
data, regardless of form, including originals, images, and reproductions, prepared by, obtained by, or 
transmitted to the Contractor or its subcontractors in connection with the Contractor's or its 
subcontractor’s performance of this Agreement is confidential and proprietary information belonging to 
the City. Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, Contractor or its subcontractors must not 
divulge data to any third party without the City’s prior written consent. Contractor or its subcontractors 
must not use the data for any purposes except to perform the services required under this Agreement. 
These prohibitions do not apply to the following data provided to the Contractor or its subcontractors have 
first given the required notice to the City: (a) data which was known to the Contractor or its subcontractors 
prior to its performance under this Agreement unless such data was acquired in connection with work 
performed for the City; or (b) data which was acquired by the Contractor or its subcontractors in its 
performance under this Agreement and which was disclosed to the Contractor or its subcontractors by a 
third party, who to the best of the Contractor's or its subcontractors knowledge and belief, had the legal 
right to make such disclosure and the Contractor or its subcontractors are not otherwise required to hold 
such data in confidence; or (c) data which is required to be disclosed by virtue of law, regulation, or court 
order, to which the Contractor or its subcontractors are subject. In the event the Contractor or its 
subcontractors are required or requested to disclose data to a third party, or any other information to 
Docusign Envelope ID: B39CADDA-3E26-4361-82FB-8905DC5FA4E1

which the Contractor or its subcontractors became privy as a result of any other contract with the City, the 
Contractor must first notify the City as set forth in this Section of the request or demand for the data. The 
Contractor or its subcontractors must give the City sufficient facts so that the City can be given an 
opportunity to first give its consent or take such action that the City may deem appropriate to protect such 
data or other information from disclosure. Unless prohibited by law, within ten calendar days after 
completion or termination of services under this Agreement, the Contractor or its subcontractors must 
promptly deliver, as set forth in this Section, a copy of all data to the City. All data must continue to be 
subject to the confidentiality agreements of this Agreement. Contractor or its subcontractors assume all 
liability to maintain the confidentiality of the data in its possession and agrees to compensate the City if 
any of the provisions of this Section are violated by the Contractor, its employees, agents or subcontractors. 
Solely for the purposes of seeking injunctive relief, it is agreed that a breach of this Section must be deemed 
to cause irreparable harm that justifies injunctive relief in court. Contractor agrees that the requirements 
of this Section must be incorporated into all subcontracts entered into by Contractor. A violation of this 
Section may result in immediate termination of this Agreement without notice. 
 
5.27 Personal Identifying Information-Data Security. Personal identifying information, financial 
account information, or restricted City information, whether electronic format or hard copy, must be 
secured and protected at all times by Contractor and any of its subcontractors. At a minimum, 
Contractor must encrypt or password-protect electronic files. This includes data saved to laptop 
computers, computerized devices, or removable storage devices. When personal identifying 
information, financial account information, or restricted City information, regardless of its format, is 
no longer necessary, the information must be redacted or destroyed through appropriate and secure 
methods that ensure the information cannot be viewed, accessed, or reconstructed. In the event that 
data collected or obtained by Contractor or its subcontractors in connection with this Agreement is 
believed to have been compromised, Contractor or its subcontractors must immediately notify the 
City contact. Contractor agrees to reimburse the City for any costs incurred by the City to investigate 
potential breaches of this data and, where applicable, the cost of notifying individuals who may be 
impacted by the breach. Contractor agrees that the requirements of this Section must be incorporated 
into all subcontracts entered into by Contractor. It is further agreed that a violation of this Section 
must be deemed to cause irreparable harm that justifies injunctive relief in court. A violation of this 
Section may result in immediate termination of this Agreement without notice. The obligations of 
Contractor or its subcontractors under this Section must survive the termination of this Agreement. 
 
5.28 Jurisdiction and Venue. This Agreement is made under, and must be construed in accordance 
with and governed by the laws of the State of Arizona without regard to the conflicts or choice of law 
provisions thereof. Any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement or to obtain any remedy

purpose, each Party hereby expressly and irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction and venue of such

Arizona possessing a current A.M. Best, Inc. rating of A-7, or better and legally authorized to 
do business in the State of Arizona with policies and forms satisfactory to City.  Provided, 
however, the A.M. Best rating requirement shall not be deemed to apply to required Workers’

obligations have been discharged, including any warranty periods under this Agreement are 
satisfied, the insurances set forth below. 
 
C. 
The insurance requirements set forth below are minimum requirements for this Agreement 
and in no way limit the indemnity covenants contained in this Agreement. 
 
D. 
The City in no way warrants that the minimum insurance limits contained in this Agreement

of the Agreement services under this Agreement by Contractor, its agents, representatives, 
employees, subcontractors, and the Contractor is free to purchase any additional insurance 
as may be determined necessary. 
 
E. 
Failure to demand evidence of full compliance with the insurance requirements in this 
Agreement or failure to identify any insurance deficiency will not relieve the Contractor from, 
nor will it be considered a waiver of its obligation to maintain the required insurance at all 
times during the performance of this Agreement. 
 
F. 
Use of Subcontractors:  If any work is subcontracted in any way, the Contractor shall execute 
a written contract with Subcontractor containing the same Indemnification Clause and

naming the City of Chandler, its agents, representatives, officers, directors, officials and 
employees as Additional Insured as required.
