<br />b. Additional payment terms: The County will make payment to the Contractor in a lump sum manor such that Contractor can purchase the items and services described in Exhibit “A.”
<br />
<br />Section 3. Performance by Contractor.
<br />
<br />Contractor shall not (by contract, operation of law or otherwise) delegate or subcontract performance of any Services to any other person or entity without the prior written consent
<br />of the County. Any such delegation or subcontracting without the County’s prior written consent shall be voidable at the County’s option.
<br />
<br />Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, orders, licenses, permits, and other requirements, now or hereafter in effect, of any governmental authority
<br />(including, but not limited to, such requirements as may be imposed upon the County and applicable to Services). Contractor shall furnish such documents as may be required to effect
<br />or evidence such compliance. All laws, ordinances, rules, and orders required to be incorporated into agreements of this character are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.
<br /> Contractor agrees to obtain all required licenses and permits, and further agrees to keep them in full force and effect during the term of this Agreement.
<br />
<br />The County and the Contractor agree that in fulfilling the terms and conditions of this Agreement neither shall discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, national origin, age,
<br />sex, marital status, or the presence of a physical, sensory, or mental handicap.
<br />
<br />The Services shall at all times be subject to inspection by and approval of the County, but the County’s making (or failure or delay in making) such inspection or approval shall not
<br />relieve Contractor of its responsibility to perform the Services in accord with this Agreement, notwithstanding the County’s knowledge of defective or non-complying performance, or the
<br />substantiality or ease of discovering the same. Contractor shall provide the County with sufficient, safe, and proper facilities and equipment for such inspection and free access to
<br />such facilities.
<br />
<br />This contract is subject to review by any Federal or State auditor. Contractor shall promptly furnish the County or its designee, or such Federal or State auditor with such information
<br />related to the Services as may be requested by the applicable governmental entity. Contractor shall preserve and maintain all financial records and records relating to performance of
<br />Services under this Agreement for six (6) years after contract termination. For such duration after the County makes final payment of compensation due hereunder, Contractor shall provide
<br />the County access to (and the County shall have the right to examine, audit and copy, with or without notice) all of Contractor’s books, documents, papers and records related to the
<br />Services or this Agreement.
