2. SERVICES TO BE PERFORMED
2.1 Contractor shall diligently perform all the services described in the Scope of
Services attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein by reference ("Services"
or "Work"). As a material inducement to City entering into this Agreement, Contractor
represents and warrants that Contractor is a provider of first class work and Contractor is
experienced in performing the Work contemplated herein and, in light of such status and
experience, Contractor covenants that it shall follow community professional standards
with the ordinary degree of skill and care that would be used by other reasonably
competent practitioners of the same discipline under similar circumstances, in performing
the Work required hereunder, and that all materials will be of good quality.
2.2 Contractor shall perform all Work required to be performed, and shall
provide and furnish all the labor, materials, necessary tools, expendable equipment and
all utility and transportation services necessary for the Project.
3. TIME OF PERFORMANCE
3.1 Time is of the essence in the performance of Services under this Agreement
and Contractor shall perform the Services in accordance with the schedule included in
Exhibit A. In the absence of a specific schedule, the Services shall be performed to
completion in a diligent and timely manner. The failure by Contractor to strictly adhere to
the schedule set forth in Exhibit B, if any, or perform the Services in a diligent and timely
manner may result in termination of this Agreement by City.
3.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall not be responsible for
delays due to causes beyond Contractor's reasonable control. However, in the case of
any such delay in the Services to be provided for the Project, each party hereby agrees
to provide notice within two (2) calendar days of the occurrence causing the delay to the
other party so that all delays can be addressed.
3.3 Contractor shall submit all requests for extensions of time for performance
in writing to the Project Administrator as defined herein, not later than two (2) calendar
days after the start of the condition that purportedly causes a delay. The Project
Administrator shall review all such requests and may grant reasonable time extensions
for unforeseeable delays that are beyond Contractor's control.
3.4 For all time periods not specifically set forth herein, Contractor shall respond
in the most expedient and appropriate manner under the circumstances, by fax, hand -
delivery or mail.
4. COMPENSATION TO CONTRACTOR
4.1 City shall pay Contractor for the Services on a time and expense not -to -
exceed basis in accordance with the provisions of this Section and the Schedule of Billing
Rates attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated herein by reference. Except as
otherwise provided herein, no rate changes shall be made during the term of this
Agreement without the prior written approval of City. Contractor's compensation for all
Services performed in accordance with this Agreement, including all reimbursable items,
shall not exceed Two Million Twenty Five Thousand Dollars and 00/100
($2,025,000.00), without prior written amendment to the Agreement.
4.2 Upon the first anniversary of the Effective Date and upon each anniversary
of the Effective Date thereafter, the billing rates set forth in Exhibit B ("Billing Rates") shall
be adjusted in proportion to changes in the Consumer Price Index, subject to the
maximum adjustment set forth below. Such adjustment shall be made by multiplying the
Billing Rates in Exhibit B by a fraction, the numerator of which is the value of the
Consumer Price Index for the calendar month three (3) months preceding the calendar
month for which such adjustment is to be made, and the denominator of which is the value
of the Consumer Price Index for the same calendar month immediately prior to Effective
Date. The Consumer Price Index to be used in such calculation is the "Consumer Price
Index, All Items, 1982-84=100 for All Urban Consumers (CPI -U)", for the Los Angeles -
Robert's Waste & Recycling Page 2
Riverside -Orange County Metropolitan Area, published by the United States Department
of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. If both an official index and one or more unofficial
indices are published, the official index shall be used. If said Consumer Price Index is no
longer published at the adjustment date, it shall be constructed by conversion tables
included in such new index. In no event, however, shall the amount payable under this
Agreement be reduced below the Billing Rates in effect immediately preceding such
adjustment. The maximum adjustment increase to the Billing Rates, for any year where
an adjustment is made pursuant to this Section, shall not exceed the Consumer Price
Index or 2.0% of the Billing Rates in effect immediately preceding such adjustment,
whichever is less.
4.3 Contractor shall submit monthly invoices to City describing the Work
performed the preceding month. Contractor's bills shall include the name and/or

4.4 City shall reimburse Contractor only for those costs or expenses specifically
identified in Exhibit B to this Agreement, or specifically approved in writing in advance by
City.
4.5 Contractor shall not receive any compensation for Extra Work performed
without the prior written authorization of City. As used herein, "Extra Work" means any
Work that is determined by City to be necessary for the proper completion of the Project,
but which is not included within the Scope of Services and which the parties did not
reasonably anticipate would be necessary at the execution of this Agreement.
Compensation for any authorized Extra Work shall be paid in accordance with Exhibit B.

the foregoing or in enforcing this indemnity of any kind whatsoever paid, incurred or
suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or Contractor arising directly or

indirectly from or caused by any of the following: (i) the violation of any environmental
laws or the failure to clean up and mitigate the consequences of the spill or release of any
Hazardous Substance; and (ii) Contractor's activities under this Agreement concerning
any Hazardous Substance at any place where Contractor stores or disposes of solid or
Hazardous Waste pursuant to this Agreement, or preceding Agreements between City

pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability
Act (42 U.S.C. Section 9607(e)) and any amendments thereto, and California Health and
Safety Code Section 25364, or any successor statute, to insure, protect, hold harmless,

the Work are under the control of Contractor, except to the extent they are limited by
statute, rule or regulation and the expressed terms of this Agreement. No civil service
status or other right of employment shall accrue to Contractor or its employees. Nothing
in this Agreement shall be deemed to constitute approval for Contractor or any of
Contractor's employees or agents, to be the agents or employees of City. Contractor
shall have the responsibility for and control over the means of performing the Work,
provided that Contractor is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Anything in
this Agreement that may appear to give City the right to direct Contractor as to the details
of the performance of the Work or to exercise a measure of control over Contractor shall
mean only that Contractor shall follow the desires of City with respect to the results of the
Services.

The subcontractors authorized by City, if any, to perform Work on this Project are
identified in Exhibit A. Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts and
omissions of any subcontractor. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual
relationship between City and any subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the
part of City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor
other than as otherwise required by law. City is an intended beneficiary of any Work
performed by the subcontractor for purposes of establishing a duty of care between the
subcontractor and City. Except as specifically authorized herein, the Services to be

or subcontracted out without the prior written approval of City.

thereafter of not less than three (3) years, or any longer period required by law. Such
Records shall be made available to City at Contractor's regular place of business, but in
no event outside the County of Orange. All Records shall be clearly identifiable, and

or damage from foreseeable events. Data maintained in an electronic medium shall be
protected, and backed up, with a copy stored at a separate site from the original data.
Contractor shall allow a representative of City to examine, audit and make transcripts or
copies of such Records during regular business hours for a period of three (3) years from

Robert's Waste & Recycling Page 8
20.2 City's ability to defend against Comprehensive Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act, known also as Superfund ("CERCLA"), and related
litigation is a matter of great importance. Contractor shall maintain and preserve records
establishing where solid waste collected in the City was landfilled for the full term of this
Agreement and an additional period thereafter of not less than five (5) years, or any longer
period required by law. At any time, including after the expiration of the term, Contractor

copying detailed account records, such as customer names, Contractor shall make such
records and information available for review in connection with the City Audit.
20.4 Franchisee shall reimburse City for all of City's costs in performance of an
audit if, as a result of the audit, it is determined that there was any intentional
misrepresentation by Contractor with respect to Contractor's handling and transportation
of solid waste or with regard to any information provided about diversion. Such
reimbursement shall be paid by Contractor within ten (10) calendar days of the date City
notifies Contractor in writing that Contractor is liable to reimburse the City in conformance
with this subsection and the amount of City's audit costs.
21. WITHHOLDINGS
City may withhold payment to Contractor of any disputed sums until satisfaction of
the dispute with respect to such payment. Such withholding shall not be deemed to
constitute a failure to pay according to the terms of this Agreement. Contractor shall not
discontinue Work as a result of such withholding. Contractor shall have an immediate
right to appeal to the City Manager or his/her designee with respect to such disputed
sums. Contractor shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate of

prior to commencement of Work, Contractor shall obtain, provide and maintain at
its own expense during the term of this Agreement, policies of insurance of the
type and amounts described below and in a form satisfactory to City. Contractor
agrees to provide insurance in accordance with requirements set forth here. If
Contractor uses existing coverage to comply and that coverage does not meet
these requirements, Contractor agrees to amend, supplement or endorse the
existing coverage.
2. Acceptable Insurers. All insurance policies shall be issued by an insurance
company currently authorized by the Insurance Commissioner to transact
business of insurance in the State of California, with an assigned policyholders'
Rating of A- (or higher) and Financial Size Category Class VII (or larger) in

approved by the City's Risk Manager.
3. Coverage Requirements.
A. Workers' Compensation Insurance. Contractor shall maintain Workers'
Compensation Insurance, statutory limits, and Employer's Liability
Insurance with limits of at least one million dollars ($1,000,000) each
accident for bodily injury by accident and each employee for bodily injury by
disease in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Section 3700
of the Labor Code.
Contractor shall submit to City, along with the certificate of insurance, a
Waiver of Subrogation endorsement in favor of City, its City Council,
boards and commissions, officers, agents, volunteers and employees.
B. General Liability Insurance. Contractor shall maintain commercial general
liability insurance and, if necessary, umbrella liability insurance, with
coverage at least as broad as provided by Insurance Services Office form
CG 00 01, in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per
occurrence, two million dollars ($2,000,000) general aggregate. The policy
shall cover liability arising from premises, operations, products -completed
operations, personal and advertising injury, and liability assumed under an
insured contract (including the tort liability of another assumed in a business
contract).

vehicles, in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000)
combined single limit each accident.

providing contractor's pollution liability ("CPL") coverage with a total limit of
liability of no less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per loss and two
million dollars ($2,000,000) in the aggregate per policy period. Claims -
made policies require a 5 -year extended reporting period. The CPL policy

property damage, including loss of use of damaged property or of property
that has not been physically injured or destroyed, resulting from pollution
conditions caused by contracting operations. Coverage as required in this
paragraph shall apply to sudden and non -sudden pollution conditions
resulting from the escape or release of smoke, vapors, fumes, acids, alkalis,
toxic chemicals, liquids, or gases, waste materials, or other irritants,
contaminants, or pollutants. The CPL shall also provide coverage for
transportation and off -Site disposal of materials. The policy shall not
contain any provision or exclusion (including any so-called "insured versus
insured" exclusion or "cross -liability" exclusion) the effect of which would be
to prevent, bar, or otherwise preclude any insured or additional insured
under the policy from making a claim which would otherwise be covered by
such policy on the grounds that the claim is brought by an insured or
additional insured against an insured or additional insured under the policy.
4. Other Insurance Requirements. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to
contain, the following provisions:
A. Waiver of Subrogation. All insurance coverage maintained or procured
pursuant to this Agreement shall be endorsed to waive subrogation against
City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents, volunteers
and employees or shall specifically allow Contractor or others providing
insurance evidence in compliance with these requirements to waive their
right of recovery prior to a loss. Contractor hereby waives its own right of
recovery against City, and shall require similar written express waivers from
each of its subcontractors.
B. Additional Insured Status. All liability policies including general liability,
products and completed operations, excess liability, pollution liability, and
automobile liability, if required, shall provide or be endorsed to provide that
City, its City Council, boards and commissions, officers, agents, volunteers
and employees shall be included as insureds under such policies.
C. Primary and Non Contributory. All liability coverage shall apply on a primary
basis and shall not require contribution from any insurance or self-insurance
maintained by City.
Robert's Waste & Recycling Page C-2
D. Notice of Cancellation. All policies shall provide City with thirty (30)
calendar days notice of cancellation (except for nonpayment for which ten
(10) calendar days notice is required) or nonrenewal of coverage for each
required coverage.
5. Additional Agreements Between the Parties. The parties hereby agree to the
following:
A. Evidence of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance to
City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein, along with a
waiver of subrogation endorsement for workers' compensation and other
endorsements as specified herein for each coverage. Insurance certificates
and endorsement must be approved by City's Risk Manager prior to
commencement of performance. Current certification of insurance shall be
kept on file with City at all times during the term of this Agreement. City
reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required
insurance policies, at any time.
B. City's Right to Revise Requirements. City reserves the right at any time
during the term of the Agreement to change the amounts and types of
insurance required by giving Contractor sixty (60) calendar days advance
written notice of such change. If such change results in substantial
additional cost to Contractor, City and Contractor may renegotiate
Contractor's compensation.
C. Right to Review Subcontracts. Contractor agrees that upon request, all
agreements with subcontractors or others with whom Contractor enters into
contracts with on behalf of City will be submitted to City for review. Failure
of City to request copies of such agreements will not impose any liability on
City, or its employees. Contractor shall require and verify that all
subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements stated
herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on
insurance required from subcontractors. For CGL coverage,
subcontractors shall provide coverage with a format at least as broad as CG
20 38 04 13.
D. Enforcement of Agreement Provisions. Contractor acknowledges and
agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Contractor of non-compliance with any requirement imposes no additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder.
E. Requirements not Limiting. Requirements of specific coverage features or
limits contained in this Section are not intended as a limitation on coverage,
limits or other requirements, or a waiver of any coverage normally provided
by any insurance. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for
purposes of clarification only as it pertains to a given issue and is not
intended by any party or insured to be all inclusive, or to the exclusion of
Robert's Waste & Recycling Page C-3
other coverage, or a waiver of any type. If the Contractor maintains higher
limits than the minimums shown above, the City requires and shall be
entitled to coverage for higher limits maintained by the Contractor. Any
available insurance proceeds in excess of the specified minimum limits of
insurance and coverage shall be available to the City.
F. Self-insured Retentions. Any self-insured retentions must be declared to
and approved by City. City reserves the right to require that self-insured
retentions be eliminated, lowered, or replaced by a deductible. Self-
insurance will not be considered to comply with these requirements unless
approved by City.
G. City Remedies for Non -Compliance. If Contractor or any subcontractor fails
to provide .and maintain insurance as required herein, then City shall have
the right but not the obligation, to purchase such insurance, to terminate this
Agreement, or to suspend Contractor's right to proceed until proper
evidence of insurance is provided. Any amounts paid by City shall, at City's
sole option, be deducted from amounts payable to Contractor or reimbursed
by Contractor upon demand.
H. Timely Notice of Claims. Contractor shall give City prompt and timely notice
of claims made or suits instituted that arise out of or result from Contractor's
performance under this Contract, and that involve or may involve coverage
under any of the required liability policies. City assumes no obligation or
liability by such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the
handling of any such claim or claims if they are likely to involve City.
Contractor's Insurance. Contractor shall also procure and maintain, at its
own cost and expense, any additional kinds of insurance, which in its own
judgment may be necessary for its proper protection and prosecution of the
Work.
