Both parties to this Agreement understand and agree that the laws of the State of Colorado prohibit County from entering into Agreements which bind County for periods longer than one year. This Agreement may be extended upon mutual written agreement of the Parties. In its sole discretion, the County, by the Director of the Department of Public Works or his or her designee, may extend the time for the Contractor to complete the service or work, by not more than thirty (30) days. Such extension shall not increase the compensation to be paid to the Contractor nor change any other term herein. 4. Termination; Breach; Cure. County may terminate this Agreement for its own convenience upon thirty (30) days written notice to Contractor. Either Party may i terminate this Agreement upon material breach of the other party, however the breaching party shall have fifteen (15) days after receiving such notice to cure such breach. Upon termination, County shall take possession of all materials, equipment, tools and facilities owned by County which Contractor is using, by whatever method it deems expedient; and, Contractor shall deliver to County all drawings, drafts, or other documents it has completed or partially completed under this Agreement, together with all other items, materials and documents which have been paid for by County, and these items, materials and documents shall be the property of County. Copies of work product that is incomplete at the time of termination shall be marked "DRAFT -INCOMPLETE. If this Agreement is terminated by County, Contractor shall be compensated for, and such compensation shall be limited to, (1) the sum of the amounts contained in invoices which it has submitted and which have been approved by the County; (2) the reasonable value to County of the services which Contractor provided prior to the date of the termination notice, but which had not yet been approved for payment; and (3) the cost of any work which the County approves in writing which it determines is needed to accomplish an orderly termination of the work. County shall be entitled to the use of all material generated pursuant to this Agreement upon termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by County, Contractor shall have no claim of any kind whatsoever against the County by reason of such termination or by reason of any act incidental thereto, except for compensation for work satisfactorily performed and/or materials described herein properly delivered. 5. Extension or Amendment. Any amendments or modifications to this agreement shall be in writing signed by both parties. No additional services or work performed by Contractor shall be the basis for additional compensation unless and until Contractor has obtained written authorization and acknowledgement by County for such additional services. Accordingly, no claim that the County has been unjustly enriched by any additional services, whether there is in fact any such unjust enrichment, shall be the basis of any increase in the compensation payable hereunder. If written authorization and acknowledgment by the County for such additional services is not timely executed and issued in strict accordance with this 2 Agreement, Contractor's rights with respect to such additional services shall be deemed waived and such failure shall result in non-payment for such additional services or work performed. In the event the County shall require changes in the scope, character, or complexity of the work to be performed, and said changes cause an increase or decrease in the time required or the costs to the Contractor for performance, an equitable adjustment in fees and completion time shall be negotiated between the parties and this Agreement shall be modified accordingly by Change Order. Any claims by the Contractor for adjustment hereunder must be made in writing prior to performance of any work covered in the anticipated Change Order. Any change in work made without such prior Change Order shall be deemed covered in the compensation and time provisions of this Agreement. 6. Compensation/Contract Amount. Upon Contractor's successful completion of the Work, and County's acceptance of the same, County agrees to pay an amount not to exceed $2,484,206.35, as set forth in Exhibits. No payment more than that set forth in the Exhibits will be made by County unless a Change Order authorizing such additional payment has been specifically approved by Weld County. If, at any time during the term or after termination or expiration of this Agreement, County reasonably determines that any payment made by County to Contractor was improper because the service for which payment was made did not perform as set forth in this Agreement, then upon written 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 County. County will not withhold any taxes from monies paid to the Contractor hereunder and Contractor agrees to be solely responsible for the accurate reporting and payment of any taxes related to payments made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Unless expressly enumerated in the attached Exhibits, Contractor shall not be entitled to be paid for any other expenses (e.g. mileage).

In addition to the foregoing warranties, Contractor is aware that all work performed on this Project pursuant to this Agreement is subject to a warranty period during which Contractor must correct any failures or deficiencies caused by Contractor's workmanship or performance. This warranty shall commence on the date of County's final inspection and acceptance of the Project, and shall continue for one year, or such greater time as specified in the attached Exhibits. 12. Acceptance of Services Not a Waiver. Upon completion of the Work, Contractor shall submit to County originals of all test results, reports, etc., generated during completion of this work. Acceptance by County of reports, incidental material(s), and structures furnished under this Agreement shall not in any way relieve Contractor of responsibility for the quality and accuracy of the construction of the project. In no event shall any action by County hereunder constitute or be construed to be a waiver by County of any breach of this Agreement or default which may then exist on the part of Contractor, and County's action or inaction when any such breach or default shall exist shall not impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to County with respect to such breach or default. No assent expressed or implied, to any breach of any one or more covenants, provisions or conditions of the Agreement shall be deemed or taken to be a waiver of any other breach. Acceptance by the County of, or payment for, the Work completed under this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any of the County's rights under this Agreement or under the law generally. 13. Insurance. Contractor must secure, before the commencement of the Work, the following insurance covering all operations, goods, and services provided pursuant to this Agreement, and shall always keep the required insurance coverage in force during the term of the Agreement, or any extension thereof, and during any warranty period. For all coverages, Contractor's insurer shall waive subrogation rights against County. The County requires that all policies of insurance be written on a primary basis, non-contributory with any other insurance coverages and/or self-insurance carried by the County. An excess liability policy or umbrella liability policy may be used to meet the minimum liability requirements provided that the coverage is written on a "following form" basis. For all general liability, excess/umbrella liability, and professional liability policies, if the policy is a claims -made policy, the retroactive date must be on .or before the contract date or the first date when any goods or services were provided to County, whichever is earlier. 5 The Contractor agrees that the insurance requirements specified in this Agreement do not reduce the liability Contractor has assumed in the indemnification/hold harmless section of this Agreement. The insurance carrier shall provide a minimum of 30 days advance written notice to the County for cancellation, non -renewal, suspension, voided, or material changes to policies required under this Agreement. On all other policies, it is the Contractor's responsibility to give the County 30 days' notice if policies are reduced in coverage or limits, cancelled or non -renewed. However, in those situations where the insurance carrier refuses to provide notice to County, the Contractor shall notify County of any cancellation, or reduction in coverage or limits of any insurance within seven (7) days or receipt of insurer's notification to that effect. The Contractor shall advise the County in the event any general aggregate or other aggregate limits are reduced below the required per occurrence limit. At their own expense, the Contractor will reinstate the aggregate limits to comply with the minimum requirements and shall furnish the County with a new certificate of insurance showing such coverage is in force. Subcontractors Contractors' certificate(s) shall include all subcontractors as additional insureds under its policies or subcontractors shall maintain separate insurance as determined by the Contractor, however, subcontractor's limits of liability shall not be less than $1,000,000 per occurrence / $2,000,000 aggregate. Acceptability of Insurers Insurance is to be placed with insurers duly licensed or authorized to do business in the state of Colorado and with an "A.M. Best" rating of not less than A -VII. The County in no way warrants that the above -required minimum insurer rating is sufficient to protect the Contractor from potential insurer insolvency. Proof of Insurance Contractor shall provide to County a Certificate of Insurance (COI). The County, in its discretion, may accept other forms of proof of insurance. The Certificate of Insurance shall name "Weld County, Colorado, its elected officials, its subsidiary, associated and/or affiliated entities, successors, or assigns, employees, agents, and volunteers to be named as an additional named insured with respect to liability and defense of suits arising out of the activities performed by, or on behalf of the Contractor, including completed operations". In the County's sole discretion, the County may ask to examine a policy, an endorsement, or other proof of insurance if there is a question on coverage. Such 6 examination is deemed confidential, and the document is not kept in the record, but simply examined to confirm coverage is present. Failure of the Contractor to fully comply with these requirements during the term of this Agreement may be considered a material breach of contract and may be cause for immediate termination of the Agreement at the option of the County. The County reserves the right to negotiate additional specific insurance requirements at the time of the contract award. Contractor shall provide coverage with limits of liability no less than those stated below: Required Types of Insurance. 1) Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability Insurance covering all the Contractor's employees acting within the course and scope of their employment. The policy shall contain a waiver of subrogation against the County.

Minimum Limits: Coverage A (Workers' Compensation) Statutory Coverage B (Employers' Liability) $ 100,000 $ 100,000 $ 500,000 2) Commercial General Liability Insurance including public liability and property damage covering all operations required by the Work.

Weld County requires this coverage whenever work at issue under this Contract involves potential pollution risk to the environment or losses caused by pollution conditions that may arise from the operations of the Contractor described in the Exhibits. The policy shall cover the Contractor's completed operations. Coverage shall apply to sudden and gradual pollution conditions resulting from the escape of release of smoke, vapors, fumes, acids, alkalis, toxic chemicals, liquids, or gases, natural gas, waste materials, or other irritants, contaminants, or pollutants (including asbestos). If the coverage is written on a claims -made basis, the Contractor warrants that any retroactive date applicable to coverage under the policy precedes the effective date of this Contract; and that continuous coverage will be maintained, or an extended discovery period will be exercised for a period of three (3) years beginning from the time that work under this contract is completed. 8 Minimum Limits: Per Loss Aggregate $ 1,000,000 $ 1,000,000 Additional Insurance Related Requirements No limitation of Liability: The insurance coverages specified in this Agreement are the minimum requirements for this Contract and in no way limit the indemnity covenants contained in this Contract or decrease or limit any liability of Contractor. The County in no way warrants that the minimum limits contained herein are sufficient to protect the Contractor from liabilities that might arise out of the performance of the Work under by the Contractor, its agents, representatives, employees, or subcontractors. The Contractor shall assess its own risks and if it deems appropriate and/or prudent, maintain higher limits and/or broader coverages. The Contractor is not relieved of any liability or other obligations assumed or pursuant to the Contract by reason of its failure to obtain or maintain insurance in sufficient amounts, duration, or types. The Contractor shall maintain, at its own expense, any additional kinds or amounts of insurance that it may deem necessary to cover its obligations and liabilities under this Agreement. Certification of Compliance with Insurance Requirements. The Contractor stipulates that it has met the insurance requirements identified herein. All insurers must be licensed or approved to do business within the State of Colorado, and unless otherwise specified, all policies must be written on a per occurrence basis. The Contractor shall provide the County with a Certificate of Insurance evidencing all required coverages, before commencing work or entering the County premises. The Contractor shall furnish the County with certificates of insurance (ACCORD) form or equivalent approved by the County as required by this Contract.

The Contractor shall name the County, associated and/or affiliated entities, successors, or assigns; its elected officials, trustees, employees, agents, and volunteers as "Additional Insureds" for work that is being performed by the Contractor. On insurance policies where the County is named as an additional insured, the County shall be an additional insured to the full limits of liability purchased by the Contractor even if those limits of liability are more than those required by this Contract. Upon request by the County, Contractor must provide a copy of the actual insurance policy and/or required endorsements effecting coverage(s) required by the Contract for examination for evidence of required coverages. Copies are not kept as a record, are deemed confidential, and are not subject to disclosure under Colorado's 9 Open Records Act (CORA). All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the County before work commences. Each insurance policy required by this Agreement must be in effect at or prior to commencement of work under this Agreement and remain in effect for the duration of the project, and for a longer period if required by other provisions in this Agreement. Failure to maintain the insurance policies as required by this Agreement or to provide evidence of renewal is a material breach of contract. Any modification or variation from the insurance requirements in this Agreement shall be made by the County Attorney's Office, whose decision shall be final. Such action will not require a formal contract amendment but may be made by administrative action. 14. Mutual Cooperation. The County and Contractor shall cooperate with each other in the collection of any insurance proceeds which may be payable in the event of any loss, including the execution and delivery of any proof of loss or other actions required to effect recovery. 15.

It is agreed that the Contractor will be responsible for primary loss investigation, defense, and judgment costs where this contract of indemnity applies. In consideration of the award of this contract, the Contractor agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against the County, associated and/or affiliated entities, successors, or assigns, its elected officials, trustees, employees, agents, and volunteers for losses arising from the work performed by the Contractor for the County. A failure to comply with this provision shall result in County's right to immediately terminate this Agreement. 16. Non -Assignment. Contractor may not assign or transfer this Agreement or any interest therein or claim thereunder, without the prior written approval of County.

Solicitation #B2500020 Page 6 Schedule B - Scope of Work Project Overview Weld County is seeking Proposals for a vendor to provide construction services for the WCR 72 and 76 Paving Project. Method of Procurement Best Value: Best Value refers to a project procurement method where price and other key factors, such as quality and expertise, are considered in the evaluation and selection process. Best Value is typically achieved through a process using a Request for Proposal (RFP) to evaluate proposers. Delivery Method Design -Bid -Build (DBB): Design -Bid -Build (DBB) is the traditional project delivery method in which County either designs or retains a designer to furnish complete design services. Then solicits bids or proposals (advertises) and awards a separate construction contract based on the designer's completed construction documents. In DBB, the agency "owns" the details/risks of design during construction and as a result, is responsible for the cost of any errors or omissions encountered in construction. P ricing Method U nit Pricing: Unit pricing is where the contractor simply sets a price for each unit of type of work, or category of cost. Specific Requirements and Responsibilities This project consists mainly of two miles of roadway improvements for gravel roads located in the ✓ icinity of the Town of Eaton. The Contractor will be required to perform earthwork, stormwater e rosion control, revegetation, geogrid, aggregate base course, asphalt paving, stormwater drainage pipes, temporary traffic control, signing, and striping.

Best Value Selection Process Summary Description The following simple equation is utilized to determine the selection process scoring of the contractors which submit proposals. BV = TS + SS + CS + IS BV = Best Value Total Score (150 points maximum) TS = Technical Score (50 points maximum) SS = Schedule Score (20 points maximum) CS = Cost Score (30 points maximum) IS = Interview Score (50 points maximum) (this criterion is optional to the County) Technical Score Based upon 4 separate evaluation criteria, each with their own weighting factors. Evaluation criteria are as follows: • Scope of proposal and team. • Critical issues and similar projects. • Project control and approach. • Work location/familiarity. Schedule Score County discloses to Proposers in the Special Provisions the maximum allowable contract time acceptable. The earliest responsible proposed schedule scores 20 points. Other proposed schedules score based upon a ratio to the earliest. This Schedule Score is calculated by the Project Manager and provided to the selection committee members after the Technical Scores have been determined. The schedule of the successful Proposer shall form the basis for establishing the contract time, and liquidated damages would be applied after this contract time has expired. Solicitation #B2500020 Page 10 Cost Score The lowest responsible cost proposal scores 30 points. Other proposed costs score based upon a ratio to the lowest cost. The County will request Proposers to submit their cost proposal separately from their main proposal document. The Project Manager will not share the cost proposals with the other selection committee members until after the technical and schedule scores have been prior determined. Interview Score (optional) If the County decides to incorporate this criterion into the selection process, they will select the three Proposers with the highest scores to participate. In such case, these short-listed Proposers interview scores shall be added into the equation which determines the Best Value Total Score (BV). Scoring Criteria The RFP Responses will be evaluated using the criteria listed in each Table. 1 through 3. NOTE: Each RFP Response will be individually evaluated by a team of reviewers. Each reviewer will score using a rating scale from 1 to 5, with 1 being a poor rating, 3 being an average rating, and 5 being an outstanding rating. After the individual reviewers have scored each area, the individual reviewer scores will be totaled. The two to three highest scored RFP Responses may be invited to participate in interviews (if required) to help the reviewers determine the final overall score and which represents the best value to the County. If interviews are determined to be necessary for the selection process, Contractors will be evaluated on the criteria shown below in Table 4. After all scores have been determined from the RFP Response and the interview (if required), each score will be totaled for each RFP. The highest score will be considered the top ranked proposal and best value for the County. NOTE: The highest score proposal may not be the lowest proposed cost.

ERIC MARSH ESTIMATOR & PROJECT MANAGER 970-223-3151 Office 970-846-4176 Cell emarsh@connellresources.com We look forward to sharing our experience and approach for this project with the team. Please feel free to contact Eric or me with any questions pertaining to this proposal. Warren President _ CONNELLRESOURCES.COM 7785 HIGHLAND MEADOW'S PKWY. SUITE 100 FORT COLLINS, CO 80528 CONTENTS PROPOSAL 1 Scope of Proposal 2-3 Project Team 4-5 Similar Projects 6-8 Project Control and Approach g Work Location Familiarity 10 Schedule and Contract Time 11 Judgements, Claims, Suits 11 Liquidated Damages Attachment 1 - Required Forms SCOPE OF PROPOSAL We understand that Weld County seeks a durable, high -quality pavement to support increased traffic during the CR 74/31 roundabout construction, with minimal disruption to residents. These roadways will serve as additional local roads during the construction of the roundabout at CR 74 and CR 31. The reconstruction of WCR 72 and WCR 76 is critical, as these roads must be paved to handle the increased traffic volumes and support the future projects planned for Weld County in the coming years. To meet these goals and deliver a final product that Weld County can be proud of, our team is committed to a focused and efficient construction schedule, see attached project schedule, completing the work within the allotted 60 calendar days. We will implement proactive communication strategies and traffic management plans to minimize the impact of detours on local residents and surrounding stakeholders, e nsuring safe and clear access throughout the duration of the project. Our experienced crews and quality control measures will ensure outstanding workmanship and attention to detail at every stage, resulting in a final product that aligns with the County's vision. Connell Resources is well -positioned to meet the 60 -calendar -day schedule for the WCR 72 and 76 paving project by leveraging our local resources and self -performing approximately 85% of the work with our own crews. This includes earthwork, storm drainage, geogrid, aggregate base, and asphalt paving. As a local, family and employee -owned business, we produce our own specification aggregates and operate o ur own asphalt batch plants. With 275 Northern Colorado -based employees and a modern fleet of e quipment, we offer quick response times, reliable productivity, and consistent on -time delivery. We plan to focus first on WCR 72 and then transition to WCR 76, ensuring adequate resources are dedicated to each phase while minimizing disruptions to the community. However, we are also open to collaborating with the County to explore the feasibility of working on WCR 72 and WCR 76 concurrently. If possible, this approach could further reduce the overall impact on the traveling public and accelerate the delivery of the final product for Weld County.

WCR 72 AND 76 PAVING PROJECTS PAGE PROJECT CONTROL AND APPROACH For over 25 years, we have utilized and assisted in development of B2W Estimate, a proven system that integrates our historical cost data, production rates, and standard crew structures to generate accurate, project -specific cost estimates. This tool breaks down costs into labor, equipment, and materials, ensuring transparency and accuracy before work begins. As a unit price contract, the project's costs are fixed based on agreed -upon unit prices and actual quantities of work performed, providing budget certainty for the scopes outlined in the RFP. We will self - perform approximately 80% of the work with our skilled crews, including unclassified excavation, embankment, topsoil placement, grading, storm drainage installation, aggregate base installation, and asphalt paving. Connell Resources owns and operates proprietary gravel pits in Weld County and asphalt batch plants, enabling full control over schedules and costs, which translates to competitive unit prices and efficient project execution. In addition, Connell tracks quantities of work completed daily and will reconcile completed work quantities with Weld County's project team on a weekly basis to avoid discrepancies and help ensure the project stays on budget throughout construction. For specialized tasks outside our scope, we leverage nearly 80 years of experience in Northern Colorado to partner with trusted local subcontractors. Our long-term relationships ensure quality, safety, and reliability, and we conduct a competitive bidding process among these partners to secure the best value for the project. By focusing operations locally, we prioritize subcontractors who share our commitment to excellence and can respond swiftly to project needs, ensuring a high -quality, streamlined delivery for Weld County. Based on the scope of work outlined in the proposal, we would subcontractor the following assignments: • Concrete Flatwork • Guardrail • Mailbox Replacement • Payment Marking • Seeding and Mulching • Signs • Survey • Traffic Control WCR 72 AND 76 PAVING PROJECTS PAGE 6 REGULATION COMPLIANCE • PROJECT CONTROL AND APPROACH • Connell employs three full-time Environmental Health and Safety professionals dedicated to permitting and regulatory compliance. Our technicians will assist with completing acpplications, securing necessary permits (e.g., Weld County, CDPHE) and will ensure full compliance to all applicable requirements throughout construction. Our team of compliance professionals currently manages the following internal permits with CDPHE: • 13 Construction Stormwater • 7 Construction Dewatering • 4 Gravel Pit Process Water/Stormwater • 1 Air Permit for Large Construction Sites • 16 Air Permits for Mining Equipment • 1 Air Permit for Stationary Asphalt Plant • 1 Air Permit for a Portable Asphalt Plant QUALITY CONTROL MEASURES Connell Resources employs two full-time quality control technicians in our in-house laboratory to conduct daily asphalt QA/QC testing. Both our technicians are LabCAT Level A: Laydown, Level B: Asphalt Plant Materials Control, and Level C: Mixture Volumetrics, Gyratory, Stability & Lottman Certified for asphalt material testing. In addition, our Asphalt Plant Supervisor overseeing all plant operations is on the Board of Directors for LabCAT. Quality is at the root of everything we do it's the foundation of our reputation and the standard we're committed to upholding. All testing will be closely coordinated with Weld County's operations to ensure da ly compliance and consistency per project -specific requirements. By conducting testing in-house, we can make prompt field adjustments as needed and provide Weld County with real-time data, ensuring full transparency throughout the construction process. Achieving an VRI Category B smoothness rating starts long before paving begins. Once the roadbed has been graded and compacted, the subgrade shall be trimmed to the correct elevation (+/- 0.04 feet) and cross section as per plans. Our late model machine controlled CAT 150M Motorgraders will finish the base grade to within specification tolerances. prior to placing Class 6 aggregate base. Connell will perform Smoothness Process Control (SPC) testing per Subsection 105.07 to ensure compliance with MRI Category B smoothness criteria. During the paving of County Roads 72 and 76, our team will utilize a material transfer device to achieve optimal smoothness and superior quality in the finished product.

JUDGEMENTS, CLAIMS, SUITS LIQUIDATED DAMAGE Connell Resources was assessed liquidated damages on a project completed in 2021. Owner: Carter Lake Filter Plant Project: 7 Million Gallon Water Storage Tank Description: The liquidated damages were for late completion of a new 7 MG water storage tank. During construction of the tank, the interior roof coating system, applied by a 2nd tier subcontractor, was determined to be defective and was removed and replaced. This coating rework caused the completion of the project to be delayed. The project is complete and the tank is in use.
