manner. Time is of the essence of this Agreement.

under the same material terms and conditions.
DISCLOSURE AND WARNINGS:
If requested by City, Vendor shall promptly furnish to City, in such form and detail as City may
direct, a list of all chemicals, materials, substances and items used in or during the provision of the

of God, actions by any govemmental authority (whether valid or invalid), court injunction, fires,
floods, windstorms, explosions, riots, natural disasters, wars or sabotage; provided that notice of

party within five (5) business days after discovery of the cause of such delay. During the period of
such delay or failure to perform by Vendor, City, at its sole option, may purchase some or all of
the same or similar Goods and Services from other sources and reduce those Goods and Services
provided by Vendor hereunder by such quantity, without liability to Vendor, or have Vendor
provide the Goods and Services from other sources in quantities and at times requested by City
and at the price set forth in this Agreement.
LIENS:
Vendor shall not cause or permit the filing of any lien on any of City's property. In the event any
such lien is filed and Vendor fails to remove such lien within ten (10) days after the filing thereof,
by payment or bonding, City shall have the right to pay such lien or obtain such bond, all at
Vendor's sole cost and expense. Vendor shall indemnify and hold harmless City from and against
