materials set forth in the project narrative identified as Attachment "A" during the agreement period.
No material, labor, or facilities will be furnished by the County, unless otherwise provided for in the
Agreement.
2. Accounting and Payment for Contractor Services. Payment to the Contractor for services rendered
under this Agreement shall be as set forth in Attachment "B." Unless specifically stated in Attachment
"B," the County will not reimburse the Contractor for any costs or expenses incurred by the Contractor
in the performance of this contract.
The County shall compensate the Contractor through the County voucher system for the Contractor's
service pursuant to the fee schedule set forth in Attachment "B."
3. Delegation and Subcontracting. Contractor's services are deemed personal and no portion of this
contract may be delegated or subcontracted to any other individual, firm or entity without the express
and prior written approval of the County Project Manager.
4. Independent Contractor. The Contractor's services shall be furnished by the Contractor as an
independent contractor and nothing herein contained shall be construed to create a relationship of
employer/employee or master/servant.
The Contractor acknowledges that the entire compensation for this Agreement is specified in
Attachment "B" and the Contractor is not entitled to any county benefits including, but not limited to:
vacation pay, holiday pay, sick leave pay, medical, dental or other insurance benefits, or any other
rights or privileges afforded to Clallam County employees. The Contractor represents that it maintains
a separate place of business, serves clients other than the County, will report all income and expense
accrued under this contract with the Internal Revenue Service on a business tax schedule, and has a
tax account with the State of Washington Department of Revenue for payment of all sales and use
and Business and Occupation taxes collected by the State of Washington.

Clallam County is deemed responsible for federal withholding, social security contributions, workers
compensation and the like, the Contractor agrees to reimburse Clallam County for any payments
made or required to be made by Clallam County. Should any payments be due to the Contractor
pursuant to this Agreement, the Contractor agrees that reimbursement may be made by deducting

master/servant relationship exists, the Contractor, its officers, employees and agents, shall not be
entitled to any benefits which Clallam County provides to its employees.

employment of the Contractor or any employee of the Contractor or any subcontractor or any
employee of any subcontractor by the County at the present time or in the future.
6. Regulations and Requirements. This Agreement shall be subject to all federal, state and local laws,
rules, and regulations.

Agreement and its performance, and any and all communications with or evaluations by service
recipients under this Agreement. The Contractor shall preserve and maintain all financial records and
records relating to the performance of work under this Agreement for three (3) years after contract
termination, and shall make them available for such review, within Clallam County, State of
Washington, upon request, during reasonable business hours.
8. Modifications. Either party may request changes in the Agreement. Any and all agreed modifications
shall be in writing, signed by each of the parties.

contract or becomes insolvent or is declared bankrupt or makes an assignment for the benefit of
creditors, the County may, by depositing written notice to the Contractor in the U.S. Mail, postage
prepaid, terminate the contract, and at the County's option, obtain performance of the work
elsewhere. If the contract is terminated for default, the Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any
further payments under the contract. Any extra cost or damage to the County resulting from such
default(s) shall be deducted from any money due or coming due to the Contractor. The Contractor
agrees to bear any extra expenses incurred by the County in completing the work, including all
increased costs for completing the work, and all damage sustained, or which may be sustained by the
County by reason of such default.
If a notice of termination for default has been issued and it is later determined for any reason that the
Contractor was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the
notice of termination had been issued pursuant to the Termination for Public Convenience paragraph
hereof.
10. Termination for Public Convenience. The County may terminate the contract in whole or in part
whenever the County determines, in its sole discretion that such termination is in the interests of the
County. Whenever the contract is terminated in accordance with this paragraph, the Contractor shall
be entitled to payment for actual work performed for completed items of work. An equitable
adjustment in the contract price for partially completed items of work will be made, but such
adjustment shall not include provision for loss of anticipated profit on deleted or uncompleted work.
Termination of this contract by the County at any time during the term, whether for default or
convenience, shall not constitute a breach of contract by the County.
11. Termination Due to Insufficient Funds. If sufficient funds for payment under this contract are not
appropriated or allocated or are withdrawn, reduced or otherwise limited, the County may terminate
this contract upon five (5) days written notice to the Contractor. No penalty or expense shall accrue
to the County in the event this provision applies.
12. Termination Procedure. The following provisions apply in the event that this Agreement is

ATTACHMENT "C"
officials or employees for damages because of personal or bodily injury, including death at any time
resulting therefrom, sustained by any person or persons and on account of damage to property

negligence of the Contractor, his/her subcontractors, its successor or assigns, or its or their agent,
servants, or employees, the County, its appointed or elected officers, employees or their agents,
except only such injury or damage as shall have been occasioned by the sole negligence of the
County, its appointed or elected officials or employees. It is further provided that no liability shall

against the County, its appointed and elected officers, agents and employees, the Contractor
expressly waives its immunity under Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington, the Industrial

brought by or on behalf of any employee of the Contractor. Along with the other provisions of this
Agreement, this waiver is mutually negotiated by the parties to this Agreement.

determined by the County as necessary to cure the default, until the County Project Manager
determines that such failure to perform has been cured. Withholding under this clause shall not be
deemed a breach entitling Contractor to termination or damages, provided that the County promptly
gives notice in writing to the Contractor of the nature of the default or failure to perform, and in no
case more than ten (10) days after it determines to withhold amounts otherwise due. A
determination of the County Project Manager set forth in a notice to the Contractor of the action
required and/or the amount required to cure any alleged failure to perform shall be deemed
conclusive, except to the extent that the Contractor acts within the times and in strict accord with the
provision of the Disputes clause of this Agreement. The County may act in accordance with any
determination of the County Project Manager which has become conclusive under this clause, without
prejudice to any other remedy under the Agreement, to take all or any of the following actions: (1)

the account of the Contractor, (3) to set off any amount paid or incurred from amounts due or to

withholding by the County under this clause.

remedies available hereunder shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any duties, obligations,
rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available bylaw.

the Contractor concerning this Agreement shall be binding upon the Contractor, unless otherwise

options for future acquisition to remain in effect for a fixed period, or warranties.
