sample of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A", consisting of one (1) page, and
incorporated herein by this reference, shall include a description of the services to be

actions will be confirmed by issuance of a written Work Order within two (2) working
days.

invalidating the Agreement, make changes within the general scope of the particular
services assigned and the Service Provider agrees to perform such changed services.

showing the type, amount, class of operations covered, effective dates and date of
expiration of policies, and containing substantially the following statement"
"The insurance evidenced by this Certificate will not be cancelled or materially altered,
except after ten (10) days written notice has been received by the City of Fort Collins."
In case of the breach of any provision of the Insurance Requirements, the City, at its
option, may take out and maintain, at the expense of the Service Provider, such
insurance as the City may deem proper and may deduct the cost of such insurance from
any monies which may be due or become due the Service Provider under this
Agreement. The City, its officers, agents and employees shall be named as additional
insured on the Service Provider's general liability and automobile liability insurance
policies for any claims arising out of work performed under this Agreement.

maintain during the life of this Agreement for all of the Service Provider's
employees engaged in work performed under this agreement:

$500,000 disease aggregate, and $100,000 disease each employee.
B. Commercial General & Vehicle Liability. The Service Provider shall maintain
during the life of this Agreement such commercial general liability and automobile
liability insurance as will provide coverage for damage claims of personal injury,
including accidental death, as well as for claims for property damage, which may
arise directly or indirectly from the performance of work under this Agreement.

insurance for each coverage, Commercial General and Vehicle, shall not be less
than $500,000 combined single limits for bodily injury and property damage.
In the event any work is performed by a subcontractor, the Service Provider shall
be responsible for any liability directly or indirectly arising out of the work

TERMINATION
a. Termination for Convenience The City may terminate this contract, in whole or in
part, at any time by written notice to the Contractor when it is in the Government's best interest.
The Contractor shall be paid its costs, including contract close-out costs, and profit on work
performed up to the time of termination. The Contractor shall promptly submit its termination
claim to the City to be paid the Contractor. If the Contractor has any property in its possession
belonging to the City, the Contractor will account for the same, and dispose of it in the manner
the City directs.
b. Termination for Default If the Contractor does not deliver supplies in accordance
with the contract delivery schedule, or, if the contract is for services, the Contractor fails to
perform in the manner called for in the contract, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any
other provisions of the contract, the City may terminate this contract for default. Termination
shall be effected by serving a notice of termination on the contractor setting forth the manner in
which the Contractor is in default. The contractor will only be paid the contract price for supplies
delivered and accepted, or services performed in accordance with the manner of performance
set forth in the contract.
If it is later determined by the City that the Contractor had an excusable reason for not
performing, such as a strike, fire, or flood, events which are not the fault of or are beyond the
control of the Contractor, the City, after setting up a new delivery of performance schedule, may
allow the Contractor to continue work, or treat the termination as a termination for convenience.
c. Opportunity to Cure The City in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination
for breach or default, allow the Contractor 30 days in which to cure the defect. In such case, the
notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is permitted and other appropriate
conditions
12
If Contractor fails to remedy to the City's satisfaction the breach or default of any of the terms,
covenants, or conditions of this Contract within [ten (10) days] after receipt by Contractor of
written notice from the City setting forth the nature of said breach or default, the City shall have
the right to terminate the Contract without any further obligation to Contractor. Any such
termination for default shall not in any way operate to preclude the City from also pursuing all
available remedies against Contractor and its sureties for said breach or default.
d. Waiver of Remedies for any Breach In the event that the City elects to waive its
remedies for any breach by Contractor of any covenant, term or condition of this Contract, such
waiver by the City shall not limit the City's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any
other term, covenant, or condition of this Contract.
In. Termination for Default (Construction) If the Contractor refuses or fails to
prosecute the work or any separable part, with the diligence that will insure its completion within
the time specified in this contract or any extension or fails to complete the work within this time,
or if the Contractor fails to comply with any other provisions of this contract, the City may
terminate this contract for default. The City shall terminate by delivering to the Contractor a
Notice of Termination specifying the nature of the default. In this event, the Recipient may take
over the work and compete it by contract or otherwise, and may take possession of and use any
materials, appliances, and plant on the work site necessary for completing the work. The
Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for any damage to the Recipient resulting from the
Contractor's refusal or failure to complete the work within specified time, whether or not the
Contractor's right to proceed with the work is terminated. This liability includes any increased
costs incurred by the Recipient in completing the work.
The Contractor's right to proceed shall not be terminated nor the Contractor charged with
damages under this clause if-
1. the delay in completing the work arises from unforeseeable causes beyond the
control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Examples of such causes
include: acts of God, acts of the Recipient, acts of another Contractor in the performance
of a contract with the Recipient, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight
embargoes; and
2. the contractor, within [10] days from the beginning of any delay, notifies the City in
writing of the causes of delay. If in the judgment of the City, the delay is excusable, the
time for completing the work shall be extended. The judgment of the City shall be final
and conclusive on the parties, but subject to appeal under the Disputes clauses.
If, after termination of the Contractor's right to proceed, it is determined that the Contractor was
not in default, or that the delay was excusable, the rights and obligations of the parties will be
the same as if the termination had been issued for the convenience of the Recipient.

shall either pay the benefit as stated in the wage determination or shall pay another bona fide
fringe benefit or an hourly cash equivalent thereof.
(iv) If the contractor does not make payments to a trustee or other third person, the contractor
may consider as part of the wages of any laborer or mechanic the amount of any costs
reasonably anticipated in providing bona fide fringe benefits under a plan or program, Provided,

classification under this contract from the first day on which work is performed in the
classification.
(2) Withholding - The City of Fort Collins shall upon its own action or upon written request of

which is held by the same prime contractor, so much of the accrued payments or advances as
may be considered necessary to pay laborers and mechanics, including apprentices, trainees,
and helpers, employed by the contractor or any subcontractor the full amount of wages required
by the contract. In the event of failure to pay any laborer or mechanic, including any apprentice,
trainee, or helper, employed or working on the site of the work (or under the United States
Housing Act of 1937 or under the Housing Act of 1949 in the construction or development of the
project), all or part of the wages required by the contract, the City of Fort Collins may, after

(3) Payrolls and basic records —
(i) Payrolls and basic records relating thereto shall be maintained by the contractor during
the course of the work and preserved for a period of three years thereafter for all laborers

Such records shall contain the name, address, and social security number of each such
worker, his or her correct classification, hourly rates of wages paid (including rates of
contributions or costs anticipated for bona fide fringe benefits or cash equivalents thereof of
the types described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis -Bacon Act), daily and weekly number
of hours worked, deductions made and actual wages paid. Whenever the Secretary of
Labor has found under 29 CFR 5.5(a)(1)(iv) that the wages of any laborer or mechanic
include the amount of any costs reasonably anticipated in providing benefits under a plan or
program described in section 1(b)(2)(B) of the Davis -Bacon Act, the contractor shall
maintain records which show that the commitment to provide such benefits is enforceable,
that the plan or program is financially responsible, and that the plan or program has been
communicated in writing to the laborers or mechanics affected, and records which show the
costs anticipated or the actual cost incurred in providing such benefits. Contractors
employing apprentices or trainees under approved programs shall maintain written evidence
of the registration of apprenticeship programs and certification of trainee programs, the
registration of the apprentices and trainees, and the ratios and wage rates prescribed in the
applicable programs.
(ii)(A) The contractor shall submit weekly for each week in which any contract work is
performed a copy of all payrolls to the City of Fort Collins for transmission to the Federal
Transit Administration. The payrolls submitted shall set out accurately and completely all of

(4) Apprentices and trainees —
(i) Apprentices - Apprentices will be permitted to work at less than the predetermined rate
for the work they performed when they are employed pursuant to and individually registered
in a bona fide apprenticeship program registered with the U.S. Department of Labor,
Employment and Training Administration, Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training, or with a
State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, or if a person is employed in his or
her first 90 days of probationary employment as an apprentice in such an apprenticeship
program, who is not individually registered in the program, but who has been certified by the
Bureau of Apprenticeship and Training or a State Apprenticeship Agency (where
appropriate) to be eligible for probationary employment as an apprentice. The allowable
ratio of apprentices to journeymen on the job site in any craft classification shall not be
greater than the ratio permitted to the contractor as to the entire work force under the
registered program. Any worker listed on a payroll at an apprentice wage rate, who is not
registered or otherwise employed as stated above, shall be paid not less than the applicable
wage rate on the wage determination for the classification of work actually performed. In
addition, any apprentice performing work on the job site in excess of the ratio permitted
under the registered program shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the
wage determination for the work actually performed. Where a contractor is performing
construction on a project in a locality other than that in which its program is registered, the
ratios and wage rates (expressed in percentages of the journeyman's hourly rate) specified
in the contractor's or subcontractor's registered program shall be observed. Every
apprentice must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the registered program for the
apprentice's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeymen hourly rate
specified in the applicable wage determination. Apprentices shall be paid fringe benefits in
accordance with the provisions of the apprenticeship program. If the apprenticeship
program does not specify fringe benefits, apprentices must be paid the full amount of fringe
20
benefits listed on the wage determination for the applicable classification. If the
Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division of the U.S. Department of Labor determines
that a different practice prevails for the applicable apprentice classification, fringes shall be
paid in accordance with that determination. In the event the Bureau of Apprenticeship and
Training, or a State Apprenticeship Agency recognized by the Bureau, withdraws approval
of an apprenticeship program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize
apprentices at less than the applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an
acceptable program is approved.
(ii) Trainees - Except as provided in 29 CFR 5.16, trainees will not be permitted to work at
less than the predetermined rate for the work performed unless they are employed pursuant
to and individually registered in a program which has received prior approval, evidenced by
formal certification by the U.S. Department of Labor, Employment and Training
Administration. The ratio of trainees to journeymen on the job site shall not be greater than
permitted under the plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration. Every
trainee must be paid at not less than the rate specified in the approved program for the
trainee's level of progress, expressed as a percentage of the journeyman hourly rate
specified in the applicable wage determination. Trainees shall be paid fringe benefits in
accordance with the provisions of the trainee program. If the trainee program does not
mention fringe benefits, trainees shall be paid the full amount of fringe benefits listed on the
wage determination unless the Administrator of the Wage and Hour Division determines that
there is an apprenticeship program associated with the corresponding journeyman wage
rate on the wage determination which provides for less than full fringe benefits for
apprentices. Any employee listed on the payroll at a trainee rate who is not registered and
participating in a training plan approved by the Employment and Training Administration
shall be paid not less than the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the
classification of work actually performed. In addition, any trainee performing work on the job
site in excess of the ratio permitted under the registered program shall be paid not less than
the applicable wage rate on the wage determination for the work actually performed. In the
event the Employment and Training Administration withdraws approval of a training
program, the contractor will no longer be permitted to utilize trainees at less than the
applicable predetermined rate for the work performed until an acceptable program is
approved.
(iii) Equal employment opportunity - The utilization of apprentices, trainees and journeymen
under this part shall be in conformity with the equal employment opportunity requirements of
Executive Order 11246, as amended, and 29 CFR part 30.
(5) Compliance with Copeland Act requirements - The contractor shall comply with the
requirements of 29 CFR part 3, which are incorporated by reference in this contract.
(6) Subcontracts - n/a
(7) Contract termination: debarment - A breach of the contract clauses in 29 CFR 5.5 may
be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and a
subcontractor as provided in 29 CFR 5.12.
(8) Compliance with Davis -Bacon and Related Act requirements - All rulings and
interpretations of the Davis -Bacon and Related Acts contained in 29 CFR parts 1, 3, and 5
are herein incorporated by reference in this contract.
(9) Disputes concerning labor standards - Disputes arising out of the labor standards
provisions of this contract shall not be subject to the general disputes clause of this contract.
21
Such disputes shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures of the Department of
Labor set forth in 29 CFR parts 5, 6, and 7. Disputes within the meaning of this clause
include disputes between the contractor (or any of its subcontractors) and the contracting
agency, the U.S. Department of Labor, or the employees or their representatives.
(10) Certification of eligibility—
(i) By entering into this contract, the contractor certifies that neither it (nor he or she) nor any
person or firm who has an interest in the contractor's firm is a person or firm ineligible to be
awarded Government contracts by virtue of section 3(a) of the Davis -Bacon Act or 29 CFR
5.12(a)(1).
