THIS AGREEMENT FOR PURCHASE OF GOODS AND SERVICES ("Agreement") is hereby
made and entered into by and between the City of Carmel, Indiana, acting by and through its Board of

TERMS AND CONDITIONS
ACKNOWLEDGMENT, ACCEPTANCE:
Vendor acknowledges that it has read and understands this Agreement, and agrees that its

o
PERFORMANCE:
City agrees to purchase the Goods and Services described in attached Exhibit A, which is
incorporated herein by this reference, and Vendor agrees to provide same and to otherwise perform
the requirements of this Agreement and to execute its responsibilities hereunder by following and
applying at all times the highest professional and technical guidelines and standards.
°
PRICE AND PAYMENT TERMS:
The total price for the Goods and Services contemplated herein shall be no more than the amounts
set forth in attached Exhibit A. Vendor shall submit an invoice to City no more than once every
thirty (30) days detailing the Goods and Services provided to City within such time period. City
shall pay Vendor for such Goods and Services within thirty (30) days after the date of City's
receipt of Vendor's invoice detailing same, so long as and to the extent such Goods and Services
are not disputed, are in accordance with the specifications set forth in Exhibit A, are submitted on
an invoice that contains the information contained on attached Exhibit B, and Vendor has
otherwise performed and satisfied all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Subject to the
above, if the undisputed invoice amount is not paid within thirty (30) days of its receipt by City,
Vendor shall so notify City. If such amount as is not disputed is not thereafter paid within ten (10)
business days from the date such notice is received by City, then a late charge in a sum equal to
one percent (1%) of such unpaid and undisputed invoice amount shall accrue and be immediately
due and payable by City to Vendor as a separate debt for each month it remains unpaid. In the
event an invoice amount is disputed, City shall so notify Vendor. If such dispute is not resolved to
City's satisfaction within five (5) business days after notice of such dispute is given, City shall pay
such amount as is in dispute, under protest, into the Carreel City Court, which court shall hold
such monies until provided with a settlement agreement signed by both parties hereto or a final
judgment has been entered thereon.
