<br /> <br /> <br />Page 5 of 7 <br />ARTICLE 4: GENERAL PROVISIONS <br /> <br />4.1 Architect warrants that all of the services provided by or on its behalf pursuant to this Agreement <br />will be performed with reasonable care, skill and diligence in accordance with generally and <br />currently accepted design professional principles and practices . This warranty is in lieu of all other <br />warranties, either express or implied. In particular, and without limitation, Architect will use its best <br />professional judgment in interpreting and applying the requirements of all laws applicable to the <br />Project such as the Americans with Disabilities Act, but compliance with these laws as they may <br />be eventually interpreted by others cannot be guaranteed. Further, it is understood that when used <br />in conjunction with the providing of services pursuant to this Agreement, such terms as "certify," <br />"warrant," "confirm," "assure," or the like do not constitute a guarantee, but rather a representation <br />based on Architect's professional opinion or judgment. <br /> <br />4.2 Architect will coordinate the professional engineering services called for by this Agreement, but <br />Client acknowledges that Architect lacks the training and experience necessary to perform or <br />critique said services and that these services will necessarily be provided on an independent <br />contractor basis by duly licensed professional engineering sub consultants . In no event will <br />Architect have any legal liability for any professional errors or omissions committed by these sub <br />consultants. <br /> <br />4.3 The plans covered by this contract are understood to be those required by the various governing <br />bodies for this type of work as of the date of this agreement. In the event of a material change of <br />policy of these organizations, which requires additional office or field work, the payment for the <br />extra work shall be the subject of an extra charge. Architect will commence such additional work <br />only with prior written approval from Client. <br /> <br />4.4 Architect may suspend its performance under this Agreement, withhold any instruments of service <br />called for by this Agreement, and/or terminate this agreement and its related obligations to Client <br />with no liability for doing so at any time by giving written notice to Client if Client does not make <br />timely payment of undisputed amounts under this agreement and Client does not cure its non- <br />payment of such undisputed amounts within 14 days after actual receipt of notice from Architect <br />specifying the default. This termination releases Architect from any further obligation to provide <br />basic services or additional services to Client under this agreement except for (a) claims related to <br />completed services, and (b) as otherwise expressly authorized or licensed in this agreement. <br /> <br />4.5 Client shall reimburse attorney fees arising from collection efforts on accounts receivable. <br /> <br />4.6 Provided Architect has received payment for its related Services, drawings, specifications and other <br />documents/data prepared by Architect shall be the property of the Client. Given the purpose of this <br />work, Client may share the drawings with the City. <br /> <br />4.7 Architect will provide its services consistent with similar architects providing similar services for <br />similar projects in a similar location. <br />4.8 The indemnification (but not defense) which Architect will provide will hold harmless Client and <br />Client’s lender(s) and their respective principals and employees, from and against any and all <br />claims and/or liability arising out of negligence or intentional wrongdoing in the performance of the <br />services called for by this Agreement to the full extent of Architect’s fault. <br />4.9 In light of the limited ability of Architect to affect the risks inherent in the Project, and of the disparity <br />between Architect’s fee and the potential liability for problems or alleged problems with the Project, <br />and in consideration of Architect’s undertaking of the obligations imposed by this Agreement, Client <br />agrees to limit the total aggregate liability concerning or related to the Project of Architect and its <br />affiliated entities and individuals on any and all legal and equitable theories and concernin g any <br />and all kinds and causes of losses to the fullest extent allowed by law as to Client and the Project’s <br />contractor(s) to $50,000 or the amount of Architect’s services fee, whichever is greater. <br />Docusign Envelope ID: 5C509772-AD72-46D8-8489-9AF68D088296Docusign Envelope ID: AEF3E0F6-239B-412C-A00B-0D324718521B
