if any of the Contractor's employees providing services to the City retired using the 2008 Early
Retirement Factors (ERFs), or if the Contractor is owned by an individual who retired using the 2008

suspended. Failure to make this determination exposes the City to significant liability for pension
overpayments. As a result, before commencing work under this Agreement, Contractor shall determine
whether any of its employees providing services to the City or any of the Contractor's owners retired
using the 2008 ERFs, and shall immediately notify the City and shall promptly complete the form
provided by the City after this notification is made. This notification to DRS could impact the payment
of retirement benefits to employees and owners of Contractor. Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and
hold harmless the City from any and all claims, damages, or other liability, including attorneys' fees and
costs, relating to a claim by DRS of a pension overpayment caused by or resulting from Contractor's
failure to comply with the terms of this provision. This provision shall survive termination of this
Agreement.

otherwise, regarding the subject matter of this Agreement shall be deemed to exist or bind either of the
parties. If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the attached
exhibits, then the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail over the exhibits. Either party
may request changes to the Agreement. Changes which are mutually agreed upon shall be incorporated
by written amendments to this Agreement.
22. Non -waiver of Breach.
The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any of the covenants and agreements
contained herein, or to exercise any option herein contained in one or more instances, shall not be
