requirements of TABOR by the execution of this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that this Agreement
does not create a multi-fiscal year direct or indirect debt or obligation within the meaning of TABOR and,
therefore, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, all payment obligations of the Town
are expressly dependent and conditioned upon the continuing availability of funds beyond the term of the
Town's current fiscal period ending upon the next succeeding December 31. Financial obligations of the Town

and otherwise made available in accordance with the rules, regulations, and resolutions of the Town, and

according to the law of the State of Colorado. Venue for any action arising under this Agreement shall be in
the appropriate court for Eagle County, Colorado , and the parties consent and agree to the jurisdiction of
such courts. To reduce the cost of dispute resolution and to expedite the resolution of disputes under this
Agreement, the Parties hereby waive any and all rights either may have to request a jury trial in any civil
action relating primarily to the enforcement of this Agreement. The Parties agree the rule providing
ambiguities in a contract are to be construed against the drafting party shall not apply to the interpretation of
this Agreement. If there is any conflict between the language of this Agreement and any exhibit or attachment,
the language of this Agreement shall govern.
9.9. Survival of Terms and Conditions. The Parties understand and agree that all terms and conditions
of the Agreement that require continued performance, compliance, or effect beyond the termination date of
the Agreement shall survive such termination date and shall be enforceable in the eve nt of a failure to perform
or comply.
9.10. Assignment and Release. All or part of the rights, duties, obligations, responsibilities, or benefits
set forth in this Agreement shall not be assigned by Contractor without the express written consent of the
Town Council. Any written assignment shall expressly refer to this Agreement, specify the particular rights,
duties, obligations, responsibilities, or benefits so assigned, and shall not be effective unless approved by
resolution or motion of the Town Council. No assignment shall release the Applica nt from performance of
any duty, obligation, or responsibility unless such release is clearly expressed in such written document of
assignment.
9.11. Paragraph Captions. The captions of the paragraphs are set forth only for the convenience and
reference of the Parties and are not intended in any way to define, limit or describe the scope or intent of this
Agreement.
9.12. Integration and Amendment. This Agreement represents the entire and integrated agreement
between the Town and the Contractor and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, or agreements,
either written or oral. Any amendments to this must be in writing and be signed by both the Town and the
Contractor.

9.13. Severability. Invalidation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or any paragraph sentence,
clause, phrase, or word herein or the application thereof in any given circumstance shall not affect the validity
of any other provision of this Agreement.
9.14. Incorporation of Exhibits. Unless otherwise stated in this Agreement, exhibits, applications, or
documents referenced in this Agreement shall be incorporated into this Agreement for all purposes. In the
event of a conflict between any incorporated exhibit and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement
shall govern and control.
9.15. Non-Liability of Town for Indirect or Consequential Damages or Lost Profits. Parties agree
that the Town shall not be liable for indirect or consequential damages, including lost profits that result from
the Town’s declaration that the Contractor is in default of the Agreement, so long as the Town acts in good
faith.
9.16. Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify and defend the Town,
its members, affiliates, officers, directors, partners, employees, and agents (collectively referred to as the
“Town” for the purposes of this Section 9.16) from and against all claims, damages, losses, and expenses,
including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees (collectively referred to “Losses”), arising out of the
performance of the Services, provided that (a) any such claim, damage, loss or expe nse is caused by any
negligent act or omission of (i) Contractor, (ii) anyone directly or indirectly employed by Contractor or (iii)
anyone for whose acts Contractor may be liable; and (b) such indemnification shall not apply to the extent
that such Losses are caused by the negligence of the Town or other party indemnified hereunder. If
Contractor is providing architectural, engineering, or surveying services; design; construction; alteration;
repair; or maintenance of any building, structure, highway, bri dge, viaduct, water, sewer, or gas distribution
system, or other works dealing with construction, or any moving, demolition, or excavation connected with
such construction, the extent of Contractor's obligation to indemnify and defend the Town is enforceab le only
to the extent and for an amount represented by the degree or percentage of negligence or fault attributable
to the Contractor or the Contractor's agents, representatives, subcontractors, or suppliers. If the Contractor
is a person or entity providing architectural, engineering, surveying, or other design services, then the extent
of Contractor's obligation to indemnify and defend the Town may be determined only after the Contractor's
liability or fault has been determined by adjudication, alternative dispute resolution, or otherwise resolved by
mutual agreement between the Contractor and Town. The indemnification in this Section 9.16 shall be
construed to comply with C.R.S. § 13-50.5-102(8) et. seq.
9.17. Notices. Unless otherwise specifically required by a provision of this Agreement any notice required
or permitted by this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been sufficiently given for all
purposes if sent by certified mail or registered mail, postage and fees prepaid, addressed to the Party to
whom such notice is to be given at the address set forth below or at such other address as has been
previously furnished in writing, to the other Party. Such notice shall be deemed to have be en given when
deposited in the United States Mail and properly addressed to the intended recipient. Written notice may
also be provided by electronic mail which shall be deemed delivered when receipt is acknowledged by reply
of the recipient.
