Agreement
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are acknowledged hereby, CRC and Service Provider agree as follows:
1. Services. Service Provider shall perform the work detailed on Exhibit B (the "Work"). Service
Provider shall be an independent contractor of CRC. The term of this Agreement shall be for a period
commencing: (a) on the Effective Date; and (b) ending on the date that is five years thereafter, unless
earlier terminated in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Service Provider
hereby agrees that its performance of the Work may be non-exclusive, in CRC's sole discretion.
2. Payment. Service Provider's compensation for the Work shall be computed in the manner, and
at the rates, described on Exhibit B-1. To receive compensation from CRC, Service Provider shall submit
to CRC an invoice, which invoice shall be reviewed by CRC at its next regularly scheduled monthly
meeting; provided that, if the next regularly scheduled monthly meeting occurs during the month in which
Service Provider submits its invoice, then such invoice shall not be considered until the next regularly
scheduled monthly meeting after the regularly scheduled meeting that occurs during the month in which
Service Provider submits its invoice. CRC shall pay the amount set forth on the invoice within a
reasonable amount of time after approval of such invoice.
3. Presentations. If CRC requests that Service Provider attend a CRC meeting to: (a) make a
presentation with respect to any completed portion of the Work; or (b) answer questions with respect to
an invoice submitted to CRC for approval; then Service Provider shall: (a) attend such meeting, and
provide such information as CRC reasonably requests; and (b) not receive any compensation in excess
of the Service Fee. If CRC requests that Service Provider attend a CRC meeting for any other purpose,
including, without limitation, making any other sort of presentation with respect to the Work, then Service
Provider shall: (a) attend such meeting, and provide such information as CRC reasonably requests; and
(b) receive additional compensation in the amounts set forth on Exhibit B-2.
4. Performance. Service Provider shall perform the Work: (a) in coordination with CRC; (b) in
accordance with the prevailing professional standards in the Carmel, Indiana, area for similar services;
and (c) in compliance with all applicable laws, statutes, and/or ordinances, and any applicable
governmental rules, regulations, guidelines, orders, and/or decrees (the "Laws"). Prior to commencing
the Work, Service Provider shall: (a) obtain all permits and approvals required by the Laws; and (b)
obtain, and maintain during performance of the Work, all professional licenses and certifications required
by the Laws. All Work performed by Service Provider, regardless of whether completed (the "Work
Product"), shall belong to CRC. If performance of the Work requires the entry by Service Provider onto
real estate not owned by CRC or Service Provider, then Service Provider shall be responsible for
obtaining permission to enter onto such real estate. CRC shall designate the executive director of CRC,
currently Les Olds, or his duly authorized representative to act on CRC's behalf with respect to Service
Provider's performance of the Work.
5. Relationship. The employees of Service Provider: (a) are (and shall be considered for all
purposes to be) the employees or contractors of Service Provider; and (b) are not (and shall not be
considered for any purpose to be) the employees or contractors of CRC or the City of Carmel, Indiana
(the "City"). Accordingly, CRC and the City shall have no obligations or liabilities with respect to such
employees, who shall look exclusively to Service Provider to discharge all obligations and duties as their
employer or principal. Service Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless CRC from and against all
claims, suits, judgments, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and court costs) that result from any claim for wages, benefits, or otherwise by any agent,
employee, or contractor of Service Provider. The indemnities set forth in this Section shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the completion of the Work by Service Provider.
6. Insurance. Service Provider shall maintain customary insurance coverages with respect to the
performance of the Work, including, without limitation, those insurance coverages set forth on Exhibit C.
All policies of liability insurance, except professional liability policies, maintained by Service Provider with
respect to the performance of the Work shall: (a) name CRC as an additional insured; and (b) not be
canceled without 30 days' prior written notice to CRC.
7. Liens. Service Provider shall not suffer or cause the filing of any mechanic's lien against CRC's
property, or any part thereof, by reason of labor, services or materials claimed to have been performed or
furnished to or for Service Provider. If any such mechanic's lien is filed against CRC's property, or any
part thereof, then Service Provider shall cause such mechanic's lien to be discharged of record within 30
days after notice of filing by bonding, or as provided or required by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall
be deemed or construed to: (a) constitute consent to, or request of, any party for the performance of any
work for, or the furnishing of any materials to, Service Provider; or (b) give Service Provider the right or
authority to contract for, authorize, or permit the performance of any work, or the furnishing of any
materials, that would permit the attaching of a mechanic's lien to CRC's interest in its property.
8. Remedies. If there is a default by Service Provider with respect to the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement, and such default continues for 15 days after CRC delivers written
notice of such default to Service Provider, then CRC may terminate this Agreement and recover from
Service Provider all damages incurred as a result of such default, including, without limitation, the cost to
CRC to employ a different Service Provider to complete the Work. CRC or Service Provider may
terminate this Agreement, without cause, upon 30 days' written notice to Service Provider or CRC,
respectively. CRC may terminate this Agreement, for cause, immediately upon delivery of "Notice to
Cease Services" to Service Provider. If Service Provider: (a) becomes insolvent, files, or has filed against
it, a petition for receivership or bankruptcy; (b) makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or
(c) dissolves; CRC may: (a) terminate this Agreement, without liability to Service Provider; or (b) exercise
any other rights or remedies available at law or in equity. If this Agreement is terminated as permitted
pursuant to this Section, then: (a) Service Provider shall turn the Work Product over to CRC; (b) subject
to, and in accordance with, Section 2, CRC shall pay to Service Provider, as full compensation
hereunder, an amount reasonably attributable to Work performed by Service Provider as of the date of
termination that remain unpaid as of such date. Any delay by either party in exercising or pursuing its
rights or remedies under this Agreement or the Laws shall not operate to waive any such rights or
remedies, nor in any way affect the rights of such party to exercise or pursue such rights or remedies at
any time thereafter.

9. Indemnity. Service Provider shall indemnify and hold harmless CRC from and against all claims,
suits, judgments, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and court costs) that result from: (a)the performance of the Work; (b) the failure of Service
Provider to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and/or (c) the entry by Service
Provider onto real estate not owned by CRC or Service Provider in the course of performing the Work.
The indemnities set forth in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the
completion of the Work by Service Provider.
10. Additional Work. If CRC and Service Provider agree that Service Provider shall provide
services to CRC that are not included within the Work (the "Additional Work"), then CRC and Service
Provider either shall: (a) amend this Agreement to include the Additional Work; or (b) enter into a new
agreement with respect to the performance of the Additional Work. Until such time as there is either: (a)
an amendment to this Agreement that includes the Additional Work; or (b) a new agreement with respect
to the performance of the Additional Work; in either case executed by CRC, CRC shall have no obligation
to compensate Service Provider for the performance of the Additional Work.
11. Assignment. Service Provider shall not assign this Agreement or any of its obligations
hereunder without the prior written consent of CRC, which consent may be withheld in CRC's sole
discretion. CRC may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent to the City or any agency or
instrumentality thereof. CRC otherwise shall not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent
of Service Provider, which consent may be withheld in Service Provider's sole discretion. In the event of
any assignment in accordance with this Section, CRC or Service Provider shall remain liable to Service
Provider or CRC, respectively, for the performance such obligations.
12. Nondiscrimination. In connection with the performance of this Agreement, Service Provider
shall not discriminate against any employee, applicant for employment, and/or other person in the
subcontracting and/or performance of the Work with respect to hire, tenure, terms, conditions, or
privileges of employment or any matter directly or indirectly related to employment, because of race, age,
color, religion, sex, disability, national origin, or ancestry. No notice or cure period shall apply with
respect to the obligation of Service Provider under this Section, and a default under this Section shall be
an immediate event of default.
