document, the terms of this Agreement shall control, and the remaining order of
precedence shall based upon order of attachment.

required pursuant to the Weld County Code. If, at any time during the term or aner
termination or expiration of this Agreement, County reasonably determines that any

notice of such determination and request for reimbursement from County, Contractor
shall forthwith return such payment(s) to County. Upon termination or expiration of this
Agreement, unexpended funds advanced by County, if any, shall forthwith be returned to

be paid for any other expenses (e.g. mileage). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Agreement, County shall have no obligations under this Agreement
after, nor shall any payments be made to Contractor in respect of any period after
December 31 of any year, without an appropriation therefore by County in accordance
with a budget adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in compliance with
