Page 8 of 22
Professional Services Contract CO1-0040-18 7/18
Any extra cost of damage to the County resulting from such default(s) shall be deducted
from any money due or coming to the Contractor. Any remaining deficiency shall be

incurred by the County in completing the work, as may be applicable under Exhibit A,

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.
15. 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 at unit contract prices for completed items of work. The
County shall make a reasonable, equitable adjustment in the contract price for partially
completed items of work,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.
16. Suspension of Performance and Resumption of Performance
In the event of government closure, suspension or limitation of funding in any way after the
effective date of this contract and prior to normal completion, the County may give notice to
the Contractor to suspend performance as an alternative to termination. The County may
elect to give written notice to the Contractor to suspend performance when the County
determines that there is a reasonable likelihood that the funding insufficiency may be
resolved in a timeframe that would allow performance to be resumed prior to the end date of
this contract. Notice may include notice by facsimile or email to the Contractor's
Representative. The Contractor shall suspend performance on the date stated in the written
notice to suspend. During the period of suspension of performance, each party may inform
the other of any conditions that may reasonably affect the potential for resumption of
performance. Notice may be contingent upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of a future
event; e.g. the failure of the State of Washington to pass a budget by a date specified in the
notice.
When the County determines that the funding insufficiency is resolved, the County may give
the Contractor written notice to resume performance and a proposed date to resume
performance. Upon receipt of written notice to resume performance,the Contractor will give
written notice to the County as to whether it can resume performance, and, if so, the date
upon which it agrees to resume performance. If the Contractor gives notice to the County
that it cannot resume performance, the parties agree that the contract will be terminated
retroactive to the original date of suspension of performance. If the date the Contractor gives
notice it can resume performance is not acceptable to the County,the parties agree to discuss
an alternative acceptable date. If an alternative date is not acceptable to the County, the
Page 9 of 22
Professional Services Contract C01-0040-18 7/18
parties agree that the contract will be terminated retroactive to the original date of
suspension of performance.
If the funding issue is not resolved, the County may terminate the contract under the
"Termination for Convenience" clause.
17. Termination Procedures
After receipt of a notice of termination, except as otherwise directed by the County,the
Contractor shall:
i. Stop work under the contract on the date and to the extent specified in the notice;
ii. Place no further orders or subcontracts for materials, services, or facilities related to the
contract;
iii. Assign to the County all of the rights, title, and interest of the contractor under the
orders and subcontracts so terminated, in which case the County has the right, at its
discretion,to settle or pay any or all claims arising out of the termination of such orders
and subcontracts. Any attempt by the Contractor to settle such claims must have the
prior written approval of the County; and
iv. Preserve and transfer any materials, contract deliverables and/or County property in the
Contractor's possession as directed by the County.
Contractor shall not place extraordinary orders or subcontracts in anticipation of receiving a
notice of termination, so as to circumvent section 17 (ii).
Upon termination, the County may withhold any amount due as the County reasonably
determines is necessary to protect the County against potential loss or liability resulting from
the termination. The County shall pay any withheld amount to the Contractor if the county
later determines that loss or liability will not occur.
The rights and remedies of the County under this section are in addition to any other rights
and remedies provided under this contract or otherwise provided under law.
18. Defense and Indemnity Agreement
The Contractor shall defend, protect, and hold harmless the County or any officers or

the mediator's fees and expenses. The Contractor may not use any funds received under this
contract to pay mediator's fees and expenses. The mediation shall be confidential in all
respects, as allowed or required by law.
