RECITALS

1. Contractor desires to provide an employee gift card program for City's Department of Human Resources.

AGREEMENT

In consideration of the promises and covenants hereinafter contained, the parties agree as follows:

1. Contractor shall provide an employee gift card program for City’s Department of Human Resources as described in Exhibit “A.” The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on <date> , 2026, or the date of this Agreement if later than the aforementioned date and shall continue for a period of five (5) years from the commencement of the initial term. Work authorized during the initial term of this Agreement may continue until that work has been completed. No additional work shall be authorized after the expiration of the initial term. Contractor shall maintain the required insurance coverage until all work under the Agreement has been completed by Contractor and accepted by City and for the three-year period following completion as required under Article 5.

This is a non-exclusive contract and City reserves the right to acquire the services or equipment, at its discretion, from other sources during the term of this Agreement. All financial commitments by City shall be subject to the appropriation of funds approved by the City Council and the limitations on future budget commitments provided under applicable Utah law, including the Utah Constitution.

City may extend this Agreement for an additional term of up to four (4) months by mutual agreement of the parties through a recorded amendment to the Agreement.

. For services provided to City, Contractor shall be paid as specified under Exhibit “B” (Price Schedule).

3. For such consideration, Contractor shall furnish all materials, supervision, labor, and equipment to complete the requirements of this Agreement.

4. The following indemnification requirements apply to this Agreement:

A. Contractor shall indemnify, save harmless, and defend City, its officers and employees, from and against all losses, claims, demands, actions, damages, costs, charges, and causes of action of every kind or character, including attorney's fees, arising out of Contractor's intentional, reckless, or negligent performance hereunder. Contractor’s duty to defend City shall exist regardless of whether City or Contractor may ultimately be found to be liable for anyone’s negligence or other conduct. If City's tender of defense, based upon this indemnity provision, is rejected by Contractor, and Contractor is later found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been required to indemnify City, then in addition to any other remedies City may have, Contractor shall pay City's reasonable costs, expenses, and attorney's fees incurred in proving such indemnification, defending itself, or enforcing this provision. Nothing herein shall be construed to require Contractor to indemnify the indemnitee against the indemnitee's own negligence. The provisions of this section 4 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

B. City assumes no responsibility for any damage or loss that may occur to Contractor's property, except the obligation City assumes that it will not willfully or intentionally damage the property of Contractor. City has no responsibility for any equipment maintenance, or for Contractor's employees. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship.

5. The following insurance requirements apply to this Agreement:

A. GENERAL INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL POLICIES.

(1) Any insurance coverage required herein that is written on a “claims made” form rather than on an “occurrence” form shall (i) provide full prior acts coverage or have a retroactive date effective before the date of this Agreement, and (ii) be maintained for a period of at least three (3) years following the completion by Contractor and acceptance by City of all work under this Agreement or shall contain a comparable “extended discovery” clause. Evidence of current extended discovery coverage and the purchase options available upon policy termination shall be provided to City.

(2) All policies of insurance shall be issued by insurance companies licensed to do business in the state of Utah and either:

(3) Contractor shall furnish certificates of insurance, acceptable to City, verifying the foregoing matters concurrent with the execution hereof and thereafter as required.

(4) In the event any work is subcontracted, Contractor shall require its subcontractor, at no cost to City, to secure and maintain all minimum insurance coverages required of Contractor hereunder.

(5) All required certificates and policies shall be endorsed as needed to provide that coverage thereunder shall not be canceled or modified without providing, in a manner approved by the City Attorney, 30 days’ prior written notice to City or 10 days’ prior written notice for cancellation due to non-payment of premiums.

B. REQUIRED INSURANCE POLICIES. Contractor, at its own cost, shall secure and maintain during the term of this Agreement, including while work under this Agreement is being completed and accepted and during all renewal terms, the following minimum insurance coverage:

(1) Workers’ compensation and employer’s liability insurance sufficient to cover all of Contractor’s employees pursuant to Utah law, unless a waiver of coverage is allowed and acquired pursuant to Utah law. In the event any work is subcontracted, Contractor shall require its subcontractor(s) similarly to provide workers’ compensation insurance for all of the latter’s employees, unless a waiver of coverage is allowed and acquired pursuant to Utah law.

(2) Commercial general liability (CGL) insurance with a policy endorsement naming Salt Lake City Corporation as an additional insured on a primary and non-contributory basis in comparison to all other insurance including City’s own policy or policies of insurance, in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $2,000,000 general aggregate and $2,000,000 products-completed operations aggregate. The policy shall include contractual liability insurance for the indemnity provided under this Agreement. These limits can be covered either under a CGL insurance policy alone, or a combination of a CGL insurance policy and an umbrella insurance policy and/or a CGL insurance policy and an excess insurance policy. The policy shall protect City, Contractor, and any subcontractor from claims for damages for bodily injury, including accidental death, and property damage that may arise from Contractor’s operations under this Agreement, whether performed by Contractor itself, any subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by either of them. Such insurance shall provide coverage for premises operations, acts of independent contractors, products and completed operations.

(3) Commercial automobile liability insurance that provides coverage for owned, hired, and non-owned automobiles used in connection with this Agreement in the minimum amount of a combined single limit of $1,000,000 per occurrence or $500,000 liability per person, $1,000,000 liability per occurrence, and $250,000 property damage. These limits can be reached either with a commercial automobile liability insurance policy alone, or with a combination of a commercial automobile liability insurance policy and an umbrella insurance policy and/or a commercial automobile liability insurance policy and an excess insurance policy. If the policy only covers certain vehicles or types of vehicles, such as scheduled autos or only hired and non-owned autos, Contractor shall only use those vehicles that are covered by its policy in connection with any work performed under this Agreement.

—OR IF THERE WILL NOT BE ANY VEHICLE OPERATIONS—

(3) Contractor shall not operate a vehicle in connection with any services rendered under this Agreement. Inasmuch as Contractor agrees not to operate a vehicle in connection with services rendered under this Agreement, City shall not require Contractor to provide commercial automobile liability insurance.

(4) Professional liability insurance in the minimum amount of $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $1,000,000 annual aggregate limit.

(5) Cyber Risk Insurance: Subject to a limit of at least $1,000,000 per claim to be maintained for the duration of this Agreement and three years following its termination, to respond to privacy and network security liability claims including, but not limited to:

7. City may terminate this Agreement for any reason, and without any liability therefor, upon giving Contractor 30 days prior written notice. Such notice shall be sent to the last known address of Contractor.

8. City may, without prejudice to any right or remedy, and without the necessity of giving the 30 day notice provided in paragraph 7 above, terminate this Agreement for cause in the event Contractor fails to fulfill, in a timely or satisfactory manner, any of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and fails to cure such failure within seven days after written notice from City of such failure.

9. If this Agreement is terminated as provided herein, City shall pay Contractor on the basis of actual services satisfactorily performed as calculated by City.
