benefits, or privileges of the CITY's employees, including but not limited to retirement, medical,

This Agreement contemplates the personal services of the CONTRACTOR
and the CONTRACTOR's employees, and it is recognized by the parties that a substantial
inducement to the CITY for entering into this Agreement was, and is, the professional
reputation and competence of the CONTRACTOR and its employees. Neither this Agreement
nor any interest herein may be assigned by the CONTRACTOR without the prior written
consent of the CITY. Nothing herein contained is intended to prevent the CONTRACTOR from
employing or hiring as many employees, or subcontractors, as the CONTRACTOR
may deem necessary for the proper and efficient performance of this Agreement. All
agreements by CONTRACTOR with its subcontractor(s) shall require the subcontractor to
adhere to the applicable terms of this Agreement.

in any manner agents, servants or employees of the CITY, it being understood that the
CONTRACTOR, its agents, servants, and employees are as to the CITY wholly independent
CONTRACTORS and that the CONTRACTOR's obligations to the CITY are solely such as are
prescribed by this Agreement.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW. The CONTRACTOR, in the

products, treatments, processes or materials whose availability is critical to the success of the
project the CONTRACTOR has been retained to perform, within the time requirements of the
CITY, or, when no time is specified, then within a commercially reasonable time. Accordingly,
unless the CONTRACTOR has notified the CITY otherwise, the CONTRACTOR warrants that
all products, materials, processes or treatments identified in the project documents prepared for
the CITY are reasonably commercially available. Any failure by the CONTRACTOR to use due
diligence under this sub -paragraph will render the CONTRACTOR liable to the CITY for any
increased costs that result from the CITY's later inability to obtain the specified items or any
reasonable substitute within a price range that allows for project completion in the time frame
specified or, when not specified, then within a commercially reasonable time.
13. NON-DISCRIMINATION PROVISIONS. The CONTRACTOR
shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of age, race,
color, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, national origin, physical
handicap, or medical condition. The CONTRACTOR will take positive action to insure that
applicants are employed without regard to their age, race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, sexual
orientation, marital status, national origin, physical handicap, or medical condition. Such action
shall include but not be limited to the following: employment, upgrading, demotion, transfer,
recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of
compensation, and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The CONTRACTOR agrees
to post in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment any
notices provided by the CITY setting forth the provisions of this non-discrimination clause.

communicate to the CONTRACTOR certain confidential information to enable the
CONTRACTOR to effectively perform the services to be provided herein. The CONTRACTOR
shall treat all such information as confidential and shall not disclose any part thereof without the
prior written consent of the CITY. The CONTRACTOR shall limit the use and circulation of
such information, even within its own organization, to the extent necessary to perform the
services to be provided herein. The foregoing obligation of this Section 13, however, shall not
apply to any part of the information that (i) has been disclosed in publicly available sources of
information; (ii) is, through no fault of the CONTRACTOR, hereafter disclosed in publicly
available sources of information; (iii) is already in the possession of the CONTRACTOR without
any obligation of confidentiality; or (iv) has been or is hereafter rightfully disclosed to the
CONTRACTOR by a third party, but only to the extent that the use or disclosure thereof has

The CONTRACTOR shall not disclose any reports, recommendations,
conclusions or other results of the services or the existence of the subject matter of this
Agreement without the prior written consent of the CITY. In its performance hereunder, the
