shall give or allow any claim or right of action whatsoever by any other person not
included in this Agreement. It is the express intention of the undersigned parties
that any entity other than the undersigned parties receiving services or benefits

paid or will be paid, by or on behalf of Care Provider, to any person for influencing

Congress in connection with the awarding of any Federal contract, the making of
any Federal grant, the making of any Federal loan, the entering into of any
cooperative agreement, and the extension, continuation, renewal, amendment, or
modification of an Federal contract, loan, grant, or cooperative agreement.
7. This Agreement, together with Exhibits A, B, and C, constitutes the entire
understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and
may not be changed or modified, unless by a written amendment executed by both
parties. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties hereto, their successors,
heirs, legal representatives, and assigns. Neither County nor Care Provider may
assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior consent of the
other party.

Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado.
9. Colorado law, and rules and regulations established pursuant thereto, shall be
7
applied in the interpretation, execution, and enforcement of this Agreement. Any
provision included or incorporated herein by reference which conflicts with said
laws, rules and/or regulations shall be null and void. In the event of a legal dispute
between the parties, Care Provider agrees that the Weld County District Court shall

Agreement, the parties agree that each party shall be responsible for the payment
of attorney fees and/or legal costs incurred by or on its own behalf.

actions.
12. All work and information obtained by Care Provider under this Agreement or
individual work order shall become or remain (as applicable), the property of
County. In addition, all reports, documents, data, plans, drawings, records and
computer files generated by Care Provider in relation to this Agreement and all
reports, test results and all other tangible materials obtained and/or produced in
connection with the performance of this Agreement, whether or not such materials
are in completed form, shall at all times be considered the property of the County.
Care Provider shall not make use of such material for purposes other than in
connection with this Agreement without prior written approval of County.
13. Care Provider acknowledges that County has entered into this Agreement in
reliance upon the particular reputation and expertise of Contract Professional.

of this project without County's prior written consent, which may be withheld in
County's sole discretion.
14. Upon completion of the work, the Contractor shall submit to Department originals
of all tests and results, reports, etc., generated during completion of this work.
Acceptance by Department of reports and incidental material(s) furnished under
this Agreement shall not in any way relieve the Contractor of responsibility for the
quality and accuracy of the services. In no event shall any action by the Department
hereunder constitute or be construed to be a waiver by the Department of any breach
of covenant or default which may then exist on the part of the Contractor, and the
Department's action or inaction when any such breach or default shall exist shall
not impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to the Department with respect
to such breach or default; and 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 Department of, or
