collectively as the "Parties," enter into the following Agreement for professional services:
I. Scope: The Consultant agrees to perform the services more specifically described in the
Scope of Work, dated September 3, 2008, including any attachments thereto, attached hereto as
Exhibit A, which is incorporated by reference herein. The Scope of Work may be modified only
pursuant to Section VI1.G. of this Agreement. If the Scope of Work provides for unspecified
additional services such services shall only be performed upon the express written request of the
City. Consultant further represents that the services furnished under this Agreement will be
performed in accordance with generally accepted professional practices in effect at the time such
services are performed.
II. Term: The City and the Consultant agree that work will begin on the tasks described in
Exhibit A immediately upon execution of this Agreement. The parties agree that the work
described in Exhibit A is to be completed within 30 calendar days from the date all parties have
signed this Agreement; provided however, that additional time shall be granted by the City for
excusable delays or extra work as provided for in section IX (A) of this agreement.
III. Compensation: In consideration of the services provided pursuant to this Agreement, the
City shall pay Consultant in an amount not to exceed $11,500.00. The City shall pay the Vendor
the following amounts according to the following schedule: Lump sum of up to $11,500.00 upon

Consultant shall not perform work beyond the Scope of Work, nor shall be compensated
for such work, unless the Scope of Wark or amount of compensation is modified pursuant to this
Agreement. Consultant shall only be compensated for additional services if requested pursuant
to Section 1.
If a billing statement does not conform to this Agreement, the City may withhold
payment until the statement is brought into compliance. Such withholding does not relieve
Consultant of its obligations under this Agreement.
IV. Relationship of Parties: Consultant represents that it is skilled in the matters addressed
in the Scope of Work and is performing independent functions and responsibilities within its
field of expertise. Consultant and its personnel are independent Consultants and not employees
of the City. Consultant and its personnel have no authority to bind the City or to control the
City's employees and other Consultants. None of the benefits provided by the City to its
employees, including, but not limited to, compensation, insurance, and unemployment insurance
are available from the City to the employees, agents, representatives, or sub-Consultants of the
Consultant. Consultant will be solely and entirely responsible for its acts and for the acts of
Consultant's agents, employees, representatives and sub-Consultants during the performance of

this Agreement. The City may, during the term of this Agreement, engage other independent
Consultants to perform the same or similar work.
As an independent Consultant, Consultant is responsible for its own management. The
City's administration and enforcement of this Agreement shall not be deemed an exercise of
managerial control over Consultant or its personnel.
As an independent Consultant, Consultant is responsible for payment of all taxes and
licensing fees necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. These taxes and fees
include but are not limited to State industrial insurance, Business & Occupation, State
professional licensing, and City business licensing. If any taxes or fees due the City have been
declared delinquent, the City may withhold the delinquent amount, plus any additional charges
arising from the delinquency, from any payments due Consultant.
V. Indemnification: Consultant shall defend, indemnify and hold the City, its officers,
officials, employees, agents and volunteers harmless from any and all claims, injuries, damages,
losses or suits, including all legal costs and attorney fees, arising out of or in connection with the
performance of this Agreement, except for that portion of the injuries and damages caused by the
City's sole negligence.
The City's review or acceptance of any of the work when completed shall not be grounds
to avoid any of these covenants of indemnification.
Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that this Agreement is subject to
RCW 4.24.115, then, in the event of liability for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons
or damages to property caused by or resulting from the concurrent negligence of the Consultant
and the City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers, the Consultant's liability
hereunder shall be only to the extent of the Consultant's negligence.
IT IS FURTHER SPECIFICALLY AND EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD THAT THE
INDEMNIFICATION PROVIDED HEREIN CONSTITUTES THE CONSULTANT'S
WAIVER OF IMMUNITY UNDER INDUSTRIAL INSURANCE, TITLE 51 RCW, SOLELY
FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS INDEMNIFICATION. THE PARTIES FURTHER
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEY HAVE MUTUALLY NEGOTIATED THIS WAIVER.
The provisions of this section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
VI. Insurance: The Consultant shall procure and maintain for the duration of the Agreement,

connection with the performance of the work hereunder by the Consultant, its agents,

A. Excusable Delays: The right of Consultant to proceed shall not be terminated nor shall
Consultant be charged with liquidated damages for any delays in the completion of the work due

beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Consultant, including, but not

HOWEVER, that the Consultant must promptly notify the City within ten (10) calendar days in
writing of the cause of the delay. If, on the basis of the facts and the terms of this Agreement,
the delay is properly excusable, the City shall, in writing, extend the time for completing the

services performed by the Consultant to the effective date of termination, as described on a final
