H:\USERS\CarrieR\Data\DOCUMENT\CONTRACT SERVICES AGREEMENTS\cp9006-contract svc agree.wpd
November 1, 2001 -7-
Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this Agreement
shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Riverside, State of California, or any other
appropriate,court in such county. Contractor covenants and agrees to submit to the personal
jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action.
7.2 Disputes. In the event of any dispute arising underthis Agreement,the injured
party shall notify the injuring party, in writing, of its contentions by submitting a claim therefor. The
injured party shall continue performing its obligations hereunder so long as the injuring party
commences to cure such default within ten (10) days of service of such notice and completes the
cure of such default within forty-five (45) days after service of the notice, or such longer period as
may be permitted by the injured party; provided that if the default is an immediate danger to the
health, safety and general welfare, such immediate action may be necessary. Compliance with the
provisions of this Section shall be a condition precedent to termination of this Agreement for cause
and to any legal action, and such compliance shall not be a waiver of any party's right to take legal
action in the event that the dispute is not cured, provided that nothing herein shall limit City's or the
Contractor's right to terminate this Agreement without cause pursuant to Section`7.8.
7.3 Retention of Funds. Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any
amount payable to Contractor (whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the
payment of which may be in dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any
losses, costs, liabilities, or damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be
liable to third parties, by reason of Contractor's acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform
Contractor's obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party,
the amount orvalidity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall
appear to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due,without liability
for interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of
City to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the
Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by a non-
defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver. A
party's consent to or approval of any act by the other party requiring the party's consent or approval
shall not be deemed to waive or render unnecessary the other party's consent to or approval of any
subsequent act. Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a
waiver of any other default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative. Except with respect to rights and
remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the
parties are cumulative and the exercise by either party of one or more of such rights,or remedies
shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or different times, of any other rights or remedies
for the same default or any other default by the other party.
7.6 Legal Action. In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take
legal action, in law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any
default, to compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief,
or to obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement.

delay in performance of this Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in
the event of a breach of this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall

November 1, 2001 -8-

termination of this Agreement except as specifically provided in the following Section for termination
for cause. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without
cause, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Contractor, except that where termination is due to
the fault of the Contractor, the period of notice may be such shorter time as may be determined by
the Contract Officer: In addition, the Contractor reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at
any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60) days written notice to City, except that where

Compensation or as may be approved by the Contract Officer, except as provided in Section 7.3.

only for the reasonable value of the work product actually produced hereunder. In the event of
termination without cause pursuant to this Section,the terminating party need not provide the non-
terminating party with the opportunity to cure pursuant to Section 7.2.
7.9 Termination for Default of Contractor. If termination is due to the failure of the
Contractor to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, City may, after compliance with the
provisions of Section 7.2, take over the work and prosecute the same to completion by contract or
otherwise, and the Contractor shall be liable to the extent that the total cost for completion of the
services required hereunder exceeds the compensation herein stipulated (provided that the City
shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate such damages), and City may withhold any payments to the
Contractor for the purpose of set-off or partial payment of the amounts owed the City as previously
stated.
