response, invoice or statement shall serve to modify the terms set forth herein. If there is a conflict between
the provisions on the face of the contract/purchase order these written provisions will take precedence.
The Contractor agrees that the contract shall be governed by the following terms and conditions, unless
exceptions are duly noted and fully negotiated. Unless otherwise specified in the contract, Sections 3, 4, 5,
6, 7, 8, 20, 21, and 36 shall apply only to a solicitation to purchase goods, and sections 9, 10, 11, 22 and 32

additional charge, all reasonable facilities and assistance to the City to facilitate such inspection.
8. NO REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE TENDER: Every tender or delivery of deliverables must
fully comply with all provisions of the Contract as to time of delivery, quality, and quantity. Any non-

shipment or delivery, as stated above, provided that the invoice matches the shipment or delivery.

Contractor is required to submit a Contract Close-Out MBE/WBE Compliance Report to the Purchasing
Manager no later than the 15th calendar day after completion of all work under the contract. Final payment,
retainage, or both may be withheld if the Contractor is not in compliance with the requirements as accepted
by the City.
B. The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute:
i. a waiver of all claims by the City against the Contractor, except claims (1) which have been
previously asserted in writing and not yet settled, (2) arising from defective work appearing after final
inspection, (3) arising from failure of the Contractor to comply with the Contract or the terms of any
warranty specified herein, (4) arising from the Contractor’s continuing obligations under the Contract,
including but not limited to indemnity and warranty obligations, or (5) arising under the City’s right to
audit; and ii. a waiver of all claims by the Contractor against the City other than those previously asserted

17. RIGHT TO AUDIT:
A. The City shall have the right to audit and make copies of the books, records and computations pertaining
to the Contract. The Contractor shall retain such books, records, documents and other evidence pertaining

unresolved, in which case records shall be kept until all audit tasks are completed and resolved. These
books, records, documents and other evidence shall be available, within ten (10) business days of written
request. Further, the Contractor shall also require all Subcontractors, material suppliers, and other payees
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7D1175F1-918E-4DA2-AC42-3585646D6A56
File 7536
to retain all books, records, documents and other evidence pertaining to the Contract, and to allow the City
similar access to those documents. All books and records will be made available within a 50 mile radius
of the City of Denton. The cost of the audit will be borne by the City unless the audit reveals an
overpayment of 1% or greater. If an overpayment of 1% or greater occurs, the reasonable cost of the audit,
including any travel costs, must be borne by the Contractor which must be payable within five (5) business
days of receipt of an invoice.
B. Failure to comply with the provisions of this section shall be a material breach of the Contract and shall
constitute, in the City’s sole discretion, grounds for termination thereof. Each of the terms “books”,
“records”, “documents” and “other evidence”, as used above, shall be construed to include drafts and
electronic files, even if such drafts or electronic files are subsequently used to generate or prepare a final
printed document.
18. SUBCONTRACTORS:
A. If the Contractor identified Subcontractors in a DBE/MBE/WBE agreed to Plan, the Contractor shall
comply with all requirements approved by the City. The Contractor shall not initially employ any
Subcontractor except as provided in the Contractor’s Plan. The Contractor shall not substitute any
Subcontractor identified in the Plan, unless the substitute has been accepted by the City in writing. No
acceptance by the City of any Subcontractor shall constitute a waiver of any rights or remedies of the City
with respect to defective deliverables provided by a Subcontractor. If a Plan has been approved, the
Contractor is additionally required to submit a monthly Subcontract Awards and Expenditures Report to
the Procurement Manager, no later than the tenth calendar day of each month.
B. Work performed for the Contractor by a Subcontractor shall be pursuant to a written contract between
the Contractor and Subcontractor. The terms of the subcontract may not conflict with the terms of the
Contract, and shall contain provisions that:
i. require that all deliverables to be provided by the Subcontractor be provided in strict
accordance with the provisions, specifications and terms of the Contract;
ii. prohibit the Subcontractor from further subcontracting any portion of the Contract
without the prior written consent of the City and the Contractor. The City may require, as
a condition to such further subcontracting, that the Subcontractor post a payment bond in
form, substance and amount acceptable to the City;
iii. require Subcontractors to submit all invoices and applications for payments, including
any claims for additional payments, damages or otherwise, to the Contractor in sufficient
time to enable the Contractor to include same with its invoice or application for payment
to the City in accordance with the terms of the Contract;
iv. require that all Subcontractors obtain and maintain, throughout the term of their contract,
insurance in the type and amounts specified for the Contractor, with the City being a named insured
as its interest shall appear; and
v. require that the Subcontractor indemnify and hold the City harmless to the same extent
as the Contractor is required to indemnify the City.
C. The Contractor shall be fully responsible to the City for all acts and omissions of the Subcontractors just
as the Contractor is responsible for the Contractor's own acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract shall
create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor any contractual relationship between the City and any such
Subcontractor, nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the City to pay or to see to the payment of
any moneys due any such Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law.
D. The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor its appropriate share of payments made to the Contractor
not later than ten (10) calendar days after receipt of payment from the City.
19. WARRANTY-PRICE:
A. The Contractor warrants the prices quoted in the Offer are no higher than the Contractor's current prices
on orders by others for like deliverables under similar terms of purchase.
B. The Contractor certifies that the prices in the Offer have been arrived at independently without
consultation, communication, or agreement for the purpose of restricting competition, as to any matter
DocuSign Envelope ID: 7D1175F1-918E-4DA2-AC42-3585646D6A56
File 7536
relating to such fees with any other firm or with any competitor.
C. In addition to any other remedy available, the City may deduct from any amounts owed to the Contractor,
or otherwise recover, any amounts paid for items in excess of the Contractor's current prices on orders by
others for like deliverables under similar terms of purchase.
20. WARRANTY – TITLE: The Contractor warrants that it has good and indefeasible title to all
deliverables furnished under the Contract, and that the deliverables are free and clear of all liens, claims,
security interests and encumbrances. The Contractor shall indemnify and hold the City harmless from and
against all adverse title claims to the deliverables.
21. WARRANTY – DELIVERABLES: The Contractor warrants and represents that all deliverables sold
the City under the Contract shall be free from defects in design, workmanship or manufacture, and conform
in all material respects to the specifications, drawings, and descriptions in the Solicitation, to any samples
furnished by the Contractor, to the terms, covenants and conditions of the Contract, and to all applicable
State, Federal or local laws, rules, and regulations, and industry codes and standards. Unless otherwise
stated in the Solicitation, the deliverables shall be new or recycled merchandise, and not used or
reconditioned.
A. Recycled deliverables shall be clearly identified as such.
B. The Contractor may not limit, exclude or disclaim the foregoing warranty or any warranty implied by
law; and any attempt to do so shall be without force or effect.
C. Unless otherwise specified in the Contract, the warranty period shall be at least one year from the date
of acceptance of the deliverables or from the date of acceptance of any replacement deliverables. If during
the warranty period, one or more of the above warranties are breached, the Contractor shall promptly upon
receipt of demand either repair the non-conforming deliverables, or replace the non-conforming
deliverables with fully conforming deliverables, at the City’s option and at no additional cost to the City.
All costs incidental to such repair or replacement, including but not limited to, any packaging and shipping
costs shall be borne exclusively by the Contractor. The City shall endeavor to give the Contractor written
notice of the breach of warranty within thirty (30) calendar days of discovery of the breach of warranty, but
failure to give timely notice shall not impair the City’s rights under this section.
D. If the Contractor is unable or unwilling to repair or replace defective or non-conforming deliverables as
required by the City, then in addition to any other available remedy, the City may reduce the quantity of
deliverables it may be required to purchase under the Contract from the Contractor, and purchase
conforming deliverables from other sources. In such event, the Contractor shall pay to the City upon demand
the increased cost, if any, incurred by the City to procure such deliverables from another source.
E. If the Contractor is not the manufacturer, and the deliverables are covered by a separate manufacturer’s
warranty, the Contractor shall transfer and assign such manufacturer’s warranty to the City. If for any reason

the other party’s intent to perform, demand may be made to the other party for written assurance of the

27. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE: In the event of a default by the Contractor, the City shall have the
right to terminate the Contract for cause, by written notice effective ten (10) calendar days, unless otherwise
specified, after the date of such notice, unless the Contractor, within such ten (10) day period, cures such
default, or provides evidence sufficient to prove to the City’s reasonable satisfaction that such default does
not, in fact, exist. In addition to any other remedy available under law or in equity, the City shall be entitled
to recover all actual damages, costs, losses and expenses, incurred by the City as a result of the Contractor’s
default, including, without limitation, cost of cover, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and prejudgment

to be submitted by the Contractor to the City shall be grounds for the termination of the Contract for cause
by the City and may result in legal action.
30. DELAYS:
A. The City may delay scheduled delivery or other due dates by written notice to the Contractor if the City
deems it is in its best interest. If such delay causes an increase in the cost of the work under the Contract,
the City and the Contractor shall negotiate an equitable adjustment for costs incurred by the Contractor in
the Contract price and execute an amendment to the Contract. The Contractor must assert its right to an
adjustment within thirty (30) calendar days from the date of receipt of the notice of delay. Failure to agree

However, nothing in this provision shall excuse the Contractor from delaying the delivery as notified.

commotion, labor disruptions, sabotage, sovereign conduct, or any other cause beyond the reasonable
control of such Party. In the event of default or delay in contract performance due to any of the foregoing
causes, then the time for completion of the services will be extended; provided, however, in such an event,

Information without the prior written consent of the City or in a manner not expressly permitted under this

or other governmental authority with proper jurisdiction, provided the Contractor promptly notifies the City
before disclosing such information so as to permit the City reasonable time to seek an appropriate protective
order. The Contractor agrees to use protective measures no less stringent than the Contractor uses within

upon their creation, such deliverables shall be considered as work made-for-hire by the Contractor for the
City and the City shall own all copyrights in and to such deliverables, provided however, that nothing in
this Paragraph 38 shall negate the City’s sole or joint ownership of any such deliverables arising by virtue
of the City’s sole or joint authorship of such deliverables. Should by operation of law, such deliverables not
be considered works made-for-hire, the Contractor hereby assigns to the City (and agrees to cause each of
its employees providing services to the City hereunder to execute, acknowledge, and deliver an assignment

indirect, in the Contract resulting from that solicitation. Any willful violation of this section shall constitute
impropriety in office, and any officer or employee guilty thereof shall be subject to disciplinary action up

the Contractor shall render the Contract voidable by the City. The Contractor shall complete and submit

part by a waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless the waiver or renunciation is supported by
consideration and is in writing signed by the aggrieved party. No waiver by either the Contractor or the
City of any one or more events of default by the other party shall operate as, or be construed to be, a
permanent waiver of any rights or obligations under the Contract, or an express or implied acceptance of
any other existing or future default or defaults, whether of a similar or different character.
47. MODIFICATIONS: The Contract can be modified or amended only by a writing signed by both
parties. No pre-printed or similar terms on any the Contractor invoice, order or other document shall have

statement of the terms of their agreement. No course of prior dealing between the parties or course of
performance or usage of the trade shall be relevant to supplement or explain any term used in the Contract.

all provisions be construed in a manner to be fair to both parties, reading no provisions more strictly against
one party or the other. Whenever a term defined by the Uniform Commercial Code, as enacted by the State
of Texas, is used in the Contract, the UCC definition shall control, unless otherwise defined in the Contract.
49. DISPUTE RESOLUTION:
A. If a dispute arises out of or relates to the Contract, or the breach thereof, the parties agree to negotiate
prior to prosecuting a suit for damages. However, this section does not prohibit the filing of a lawsuit to toll
the running of a statute of limitations or to seek injunctive relief. Either party may make a written request
for a meeting between representatives of each party within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of the
request or such later period as agreed by the parties. Each party shall include, at a minimum, one (1) senior
level individual with decision-making authority regarding the dispute. The purpose of this and any
subsequent meeting is to attempt in good faith to negotiate a resolution of the dispute. If, within thirty (30)
calendar days after such meeting, the parties have not succeeded in negotiating a resolution of the dispute,
they will proceed directly to mediation as described below. Negotiation may be waived by a written
agreement signed by both parties, in which event the parties may proceed directly to mediation as described
below.
B. If the efforts to resolve the dispute through negotiation fail, or the parties waive the negotiation process,
the parties may select, within thirty (30) calendar days, a mediator trained in mediation skills to assist with
resolution of the dispute. Should they choose this option; the City and the Contractor agree to act in good
faith in the selection of the mediator and to give consideration to qualified individuals nominated to act as
mediator. Nothing in the Contract prevents the parties from relying on the skills of a person who is trained
in the subject matter of the dispute or a contract interpretation expert. If the parties fail to agree on a mediator
within thirty (30) calendar days of initiation of the mediation process, the mediator shall be selected by the
Denton County Alternative Dispute Resolution Program (DCAP). The parties agree to participate in
mediation in good faith for up to thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the first mediation session. The
City and the Contractor will share the mediator’s fees equally and the parties will bear their own costs of
participation such as fees for any consultants or attorneys they may utilize to represent them or otherwise
assist them in the mediation.

State of Texas, including, when applicable, the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in Texas, V.T.C.A.,
Bus. & Comm. Code, Chapter 1, excluding any rule or principle that would refer to and apply the
substantive law of another state or jurisdiction. All issues arising from this Contract shall be resolved in the
courts of Denton County, Texas and the parties agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of
such courts. The foregoing, however, shall not be construed or interpreted to limit or restrict the right or

ability of the City to seek and secure injunctive relief from any competent authority as contemplated herein.
51. INVALIDITY: The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision of the Contract shall in
no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other portion or provision of the Contract. Any void
provision shall be deemed severed from the Contract and the balance of the Contract shall be construed and
enforced as if the Contract did not contain the particular portion or provision held to be void. The parties
further agree to reform the Contract to replace any stricken provision with a valid provision that comes as
close as possible to the intent of the stricken provision. The provisions of this section shall not prevent this

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Denton (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to
you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through your DocuSign, Inc.
(DocuSign) Express user account. Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly,
and if you can access this information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to these terms
and conditions, please confirm your agreement by clicking the 'I agree' button at the bottom of
this document.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. For such copies, as long as you are an authorized user of the
DocuSign system you will have the ability to download and print any documents we send to you
through your DocuSign user account for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such
documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to send you paper copies of
any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a $0.00 per-page fee. You may
request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must
withdraw your consent using the DocuSign 'Withdraw Consent' form on the signing page of your
DocuSign account. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive
required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use your
DocuSign Express user account to receive required notices and consents electronically from us
or to sign electronically documents from us.
All notices and disclosures will be sent to you electronically
Unless you tell us otherwise in accordance with the procedures described herein, we will provide
electronically to you through your DocuSign user account all required notices, disclosures,
authorizations, acknowledgements, and other documents that are required to be provided or
made available to you during the course of our relationship with you. To reduce the chance of
you inadvertently not receiving any notice or disclosure, we prefer to provide all of the required
notices and disclosures to you by the same method and to the same address that you have given
us. Thus, you can receive all the disclosures and notices electronically or in paper format through
the paper mail delivery system. If you do not agree with this process, please let us know as
described below. Please also see the paragraph immediately above that describes the
consequences of your electing not to receive delivery of the notices and disclosures
electronically from us.
