Court, venue shall lie exclusively in the Central District of California, in the County of San
Bernardino, State of California.
7.2 Disputes.
(a) Default; Cure. In the event that Contractor is in default under the
terms of this Agreement, the City shall not have any obligation or duty to continue compensating
Contractor for any work performed after the date of default. Instead, the City may give notice to
Contractor of the default and the reasons for the default. The notice shall include the timeframe in
which Contractor may cure the default. This timeframe is presumptively thirty(30) days,but may
be extended, though not reduced, if circumstances warrant. During the period of time that
Contractor is in default, the City shall hold all invoices and shall proceed with payment on the
invoices only when the default is cured. In the alternative,the City may,in its sole discretion, elect
to pay some or all of the outstanding invoices during the period of default. If Contractor does not
cure the default, the City may take necessary steps to terminate this Agreement under this Article.
Any failure on the part of the City to give notice of the Contractor's default shall not be deemed
to result in a waiver of the City's legal rights or any rights arising out of any provision of this
Agreement.
(b) Dispute Resolution. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of
Article 1.5 (commencing at Section 20104) of Division 2, Part 3 of the California Public Contract
Code regarding the resolution of public works claims of less than $375,000. Article 1.5 mandates
certain procedures for the filing of claims and supporting documentation by the Contractor, for the
response to such claims by the City, for a mandatory meet and confer conference upon the request
of the Contractor, for mandatory non-binding mediation in the event litigation is commenced, and
for mandatory judicial arbitration upon the failure to resolve the dispute through mediation. This
Agreement hereby incorporates the provisions of Article 1.5 as though fully set forth herein.
7.3 Retention of Funds.
Contractor hereby authorizes City to deduct from any amount payable to Contractor
(whether or not arising out of this Agreement) (i) any amounts the payment of which may be in
dispute hereunder or which are necessary to compensate City for any losses, costs, liabilities, or
damages suffered by City, and (ii) all amounts for which City may be liable to third parties, by
reason of Contractor's acts or omissions in performing or failing to perform Contractor's
obligation under this Agreement. In the event that any claim is made by a third party, the amount
or validity of which is disputed by Contractor, or any indebtedness shall exist which shall appear
to be the basis for a claim of lien, City may withhold from any payment due, without liability for
interest because of such withholding, an amount sufficient to cover such claim. The failure of City
to exercise such right to deduct or to withhold shall not, however, affect the obligations of the
Contractor to insure, indemnify, and protect City as elsewhere provided herein.
7.4 Waiver.
Waiver by any party to this Agreement of any term, condition, or covenant of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, or covenant. Waiver by any
party of any breach of the provisions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any other
-18-

n1147 nnnv/6lo1n1 2
provision or a waiver of any subsequent breach or violation of any provision of this Agreement.
Acceptance by City of any work or services by Contractor shall not constitute a waiver of any of
the provisions of this Agreement. No delay or omission in the exercise of any right or remedy by
a non-defaulting party on any default shall impair such right or remedy or be construed as a waiver.
Any waiver by either party of any default must be in writing and shall not be a waiver of any other
default concerning the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
7.5 Rights and Remedies are Cumulative.
Except with respect to rights and remedies expressly declared to be exclusive in
this Agreement, the rights and remedies of the parties are cumulative and the exercise by either
party of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not preclude the exercise by it, at the same or
different times, of any other rights or remedies for the same default or any other default by the
other party.
7.6 Legal Action.
In addition to any other rights or remedies, either party may take legal action, in
law or in equity, to cure, correct or remedy any default, to recover damages for any default, to
compel specific performance of this Agreement, to obtain declaratory or injunctive relief, or to
obtain any other remedy consistent with the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any
contrary provision herein, Contractor shall file a claim pursuant to Government Code Sections 905
et seq. and 910 et seq., in order to pursue a legal action under this Agreement.
7.7 Liquidated Damages.
Since the determination of actual damages for any delay in performance of this
Agreement would be extremely difficult or impractical to determine in the event of a breach of
this Agreement, the Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and shall pay to the City the sum
of Five Hundred Dollars ($500) as liquidated damages for each working day of delay in the
performance of any service required hereunder, as specified in the Schedule of Performance
(Exhibit"D"). The City may withhold from any monies payable on account of services performed
by the Contractor any accrued liquidated damages. Pursuant to Government Code Section 4215,
Contractor shall not be assessed liquidated damages for delay in completion of the project when
such delay was caused by the failure of the public agency or owner of the utility to provide for
removal or relocation of utility facilities.
7.8 Termination Prior to Expiration of Term.
This Section shall govern any termination of this Contract except as specifically
provided in the following Section for termination for cause.The City reserves the right to terminate
this Contract at any time,with or without cause,upon thirty(30)days' written notice to Contractor,
except that where termination is due to the fault of the Contractor, the period of notice may be
such shorter time as may be determined by the Contract Officer. In addition, the Contractor
reserves the right to terminate this Contract at any time, with or without cause, upon sixty (60)
days' written notice to City, except that where termination is due to the fault of the City,the period
of notice may be such shorter time as the Contractor may determine. Upon receipt of any notice of
termination, Contractor shall immediately cease all services hereunder except such as may be
