measures of damages, including, but not limited to, general, special, direct, indirect, consequential (including loss of
profits and/or business), exemplary, statutory, and punitive damages) because any electronic files SCJ provides to
client contain any Viruses.

hereto and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, or agreements, either written or oral . Except as
provided in Section 3 above regarding the periodic adjustment of SCJ’s billing rates and/or reimbursement rate of
expense, this Agreement may only be amended, modified, or added to by written instrument properly signed by

prohibiting oral modifications is itself generally subject to oral modification . However, in order to ensure certainty
as to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the parties waive this gen eral contract rule.
Section 20 – Assignment. Neither party may assign all or a portion of its rights under this Agreement or delegate all
or a portion of its obligations under this Agreement without the express written consent of the other party.
Section 21 – Independent Review. The parties acknowledge that they have read this Agreement and fully
understand its terms. The parties further acknowledge that the terms of this Agreement have been mutually

construed against its drafter.
Section 22 – Acceptance and Authorization to Proceed. By signing this Agreement, Client agrees that the terms and
conditions of this Agreement are acceptable and approved. If Client is a legal entity (e.g., a corporation, partnership,
or limited liability company), then the person who signs on behalf of Client certifies that he or she has the authority
to bind Client to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If Client is a legal entity and it claims at any time that
the person who signed this Agreement lacked the authority to do so, SCJ may name such person, in addition to
Client, in any lawsuit or arbitration which arises relating to this Agreement and seek to hold such person liable, along
with Client, in such proceeding. Upon SCJ’s receipt of this fully executed Agreement, SCJ shall have authority to

Overview
This proposed scope of work has been developed based on our initial review of the Kittitas
County’s current Comprehensive Plan and following discussions we have had with County
representatives. We have approached this Scope of Work by breaking it into phases that
represent the key objectives for the completion of the Comprehensive Plan update. Included in
our scope of work are the tasks we believe are necessary to be able to make the next version of

update.
