AGREEMENT
In consideration of the mutual covenants set forth in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the District and Consultant agree as follows:
1. SERVICES OF CONSULTANT
1.1 The professional services to be provided shall be those described in Exhibit B, attached hereto and incorporated herein, which shall constitute the “Scope of Services” or "Services" for this Project. Services that are removed, reduced, exceeded or are in addition to the approved Scope of Services shall constitute amendments to the Scope of Services (“Project Amendments”). Services for Project Amendments shall be enumerated in a Project Amendment Work Order (Exhibit C) and shall require written pre-approval by the District.
Consultant warrants and represents itself as qualified and equipped to furnish all necessary labor, supervision, methods, equipment, and tools required to provide the Services. The Scope of Services shall be governed by and provided in full compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The District shall have the right to make any changes in the Scope of Services with the price being increased (subject to approval of additional expenditure, if required) or decreased accordingly, as agreed to by the parties hereto in writing as a Project Amendment Work Order (Exhibit C). Changes to the Services shall be authorized only in writing, and no verbal order of any employee of the District or any other person will permit Consultant to claim any additional compensation for the performance of the Services.
1.2 The cost for the Services is specified in the schedule set forth in Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein.
2. DISTRICT’S RESPONSIBILITIES
2.1 The District shall provide Consultant with the criteria and information as to the District’s requirements for the Project, including objectives, constraints, performance requirements, and any budgetary limitations, as part of the Scope of Services.
2.2 The District may furnish Consultant reasonable information pertinent to the Project including relevant reports and data such as previous strategic plans, and existing conditions.
2.3 As reasonably requested by Consultant, the District shall furnish or otherwise make available additional project-related information and data as is reasonably required to enable Consultant to complete the Project.
2.4 Consultant may reasonably rely upon the accuracy and completeness of all information furnished by the District, except that Consultant may not rely on information furnished by the District that Consultant knows or has reason to believe is not accurate. Consultant shall immediately inform the District of any inaccurate or incomplete information.
3. SCHEDULE FOR RENDERING SERVICES
3.1 Consultant is authorized to begin its performance of the Services as of the Effective Date.
3.2 The specific periods of time for performing Services and/or specific dates by which Services are to be completed shall be as provided in Exhibit E attached hereto and incorporated herein (the “Schedule”), which Schedule is agreed to be reasonable and binding on the parties. The Schedule may be modified, but only for reasons set forth in this Agreement (see Sections 3.3 and 3.4), or by a written amendment to the Scope of Services executed by the District and Consultant.
3.3 If the District authorizes changes in the scope, extent, or character of the Project, then the time for completion of Consultant’s services, and the rates and amounts of Consultant’s compensation therefor, may be adjusted pursuant to a Project Work Order based on the fee schedule included in Exhibit D.
3.4 If Consultant is hindered, delayed or prevented from performing the Services as a result of any act or neglect of the District (or those for whom the District is responsible) or force majeure, the Schedule may be extended by the period of the resulting delay and the rates and amounts of Consultant’s compensation may be adjusted. Force majeure includes, but is not limited to acts of God, wars, terrorism, strikes, labor walkouts, fires, natural disasters, or requirements of governmental agencies. If Consultant believes that an adjustment to the schedule is appropriate for reasons set forth in this Section, Consultant must advise the District in writing within one week of the event(s) giving rise to the need for the delay and/or change in the Schedule. Force majeure does not include: (a) shortages of supervisors, labor or equipment; (b) delays by Consultant; (c) failure of Consultant to pay amounts due and owing under this Agreement; and (d) increased costs of the Services due to general economic or industry conditions.
4. TERM OF AGREEMENT. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall expire on the date set forth in Exhibit E unless terminated earlier or extended through an Amendment pursuant to the terms set forth in this Agreement.
5. COMPENSATION, INVOICES AND PAYMENTS
5.1 The District shall pay Consultant for the Services properly performed or furnished pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in conformance with any invoice dates specified in a Scope of Services or Schedule.
5.2 Consultant may submit requests for periodic progress payments for Services rendered.
Payments of undisputed invoiced amounts shall be due and owing by the District within sixty
(60) calendar days after receipt of Consultants’ invoice for services. Consultant may impose an additional late payment charge computed at an annual rate of six percent (6%) for undisputed invoiced amounts not paid without the sixty (60) day calendar day period and additionally, Consultant may, after giving seven (7) days written notice to the District, suspend services under this Agreement until Consultant has been paid in full all undisputed amounts due for services, and late payment charges
5.3 Consultant shall maintain a system of internal controls to ensure efficient and proper processing and application of funds used and received from the District related to this Project. To the extent required by this Agreement, Consultant shall apply such funds for the purposes for which they have been paid by the District.
5.4 The District may, at any time, by written order, make changes to the Scope of Services or request a Project Amendment, which changes shall not become effective unless and until the District and Consultant execute a written amendment to this Agreement as described herein.
5.5 To request a change to the Scope of Services, the District shall issue a Project Amendment
Work Order. No Project Work Order is effective unless executed by both parties.
5.6 If a change in scope causes an increase or decrease in Consultant’s fee or time required for performance, an adjustment may be made and set forth in a written amendment to this Agreement. Consultant shall not provide services for which added payment is to be made without first obtaining written authorization from the District.
6. CONSULTANT’S PERFORMANCE

Consultant shall correct known deficiencies in its instruments of service without additional compensation.
6.4 Consultant will comply with applicable laws, regulations, and District-mandated standards in effect as of the Effective Date of this Agreement. Changes to these requirements after the Effective Date of this Agreement may be the basis for modifications to the District’s responsibilities or to Consultant’s Scope of Services, times of performance, or compensation, which may be adjusted equitably.

The use of sub-consultants does not relieve Consultant from its responsibilities to the District for performance in accordance with this Agreement.
6.6 Consultant is not acting as a municipal advisor as defined by the Dodd-Frank Act. Consultant shall not provide advice or have any responsibility for municipal financial products or securities.
6.7 Consultant shall be responsible for Consultant and Consultant’s own agents, employees, and sub-consultants and shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of the District or District’s agents, employees and sub-consultants who are furnishing or performing any work on the Project; or for any decision made regarding the Project, other than those made by Consultant.

6.9 Consultant represents and warrants that Consultant possesses and will maintain all required licenses, permits, certifications, and credentials required under law to perform the Services.
Failure to maintain the licenses, permits, certifications, and credentials shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement and constitute grounds for termination of this Agreement by the District.
7. INSURANCE
7.1 For the duration of the Project, Consultant shall procure and maintain the following insurance coverage. The insurance required shall provide coverage for not less than the following amounts, and shall be greater where required by law:
(1) Worker’s Compensation Statutory Limits

Agreement and specifically naming the District as being covered by the contractual liability coverage.

All policies shall be underwritten by insurer(s) with a minimum A.M. Best Ratings of A-VII. Each policy of insurance shall provide that it will not be canceled by the insurance company or Consultant, except upon thirty (30) days' written notice to the District, such notice to be delivered by registered mail to the authorized representative who executes this Agreement. In addition, all insurance maintained by Consultant, including any excess or umbrella policy(ies), shall be primary with respect to the interest of the District, with any other insurance maintained by the District being excess and not contributory with Consultant's insurance. The certificates of insurance and endorsements shall be delivered to the District upon execution of this Agreement but in no event later than fifteen (15) days prior to commencement of the services. Certificates of insurance for new or renewed policies of insurance issued pursuant to this paragraph shall be provided to the District within fifteen (15) days of their issuance.

Consultant agrees that any dispute and associated costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, regarding insurance coverage pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will be the sole responsibility of Consultant. Any damage to property, personal injury, or other injury or damage for which Consultant is responsible to indemnify the District under this Agreement shall not be affected by the coverage or lack of coverage by any insurance obtained by Consultant, or by any coverage dispute between Consultant and its insurer.

9. TERMINATION
9.1 This Agreement may be terminated, in whole or in part, by either party if the other party fails to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement through no fault of the terminating party.
However, no such termination will be effective unless the terminating party gives the other party (i) not less than ten (10) business days written notice of intent to terminate, and (ii) an opportunity for a meeting with the terminating party to resolve the dispute before termination.
9.2 The District may immediately terminate this Agreement without penalty, in whole or in part, with written notice to Consultant, if the District no longer has funds available from anticipated sources of revenue. The District may also immediately terminate this Agreement without penalty for its convenience and with written notice to Consultant if the District elects not to further pursue the Project.
9.3 In addition, upon the occurrence of one or more of the following events, either party may, after giving the other party written notice, terminate this Agreement:
9.3.1 If the other party commences a voluntary case under any chapter of the Bankruptcy Code as now or hereafter in effect or takes any equivalent or similar action by filing a petition or otherwise relating to bankruptcy, receivership, or insolvency.

9.3.3 If the other party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors.
9.3.4 If the other party admits in writing an inability to pay its debts generally as they become due.

Electronic files shall be in a mutually agreed upon format that is usable by the District and shall be subject to Section 10 below.
10. USE OF DOCUMENTS AND ELECTRONIC FILES
10.1 Consultant may retain any documentation related to the Project, including work papers, documents, spreadsheets and electronic data, provided that all such documentation remains confidential and is not disclosed to third parties except where disclosure is expressly required by law and subject to the confidentiality provisions of Section 11 below.
The District acknowledges that Consultant may have a responsibility to retain the documentation for a period of time sufficient to satisfy any applicable legal or regulatory requirements for records retention. If required by law, regulation, or any professional standards to make certain documentation available to Consultant’s regulators, the District authorizes Consultant to do so but only after providing prior written notice of such disclosure to the District.
10.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant shall provide the District with copies or originals of all work papers, documents, spreadsheets, and electronic data in a mutually agreed upon format that is usable by the District and any and all keys or passwords needed for the District to access the same (collectively herein, “Project Deliverables”). It is expressly understood that Project Deliverables are intended to be and shall remain the property of the District.
Consultant shall provide Project Deliverables to the District in a mutually agreed upon standard format (such as, for example, Excel) in such manner that allows the District to reasonably use Project Deliverables independently from Consultant.
10.3 Because data stored in electronic media format can deteriorate or be modified inadvertently or otherwise without authorization of the data’s creator, the party receiving electronic files agrees that it will perform acceptance tests and/or procedures within sixty
(60) calendar days of receipt, after which the receiving party shall be deemed to have accepted the transferred data as transmitted. Any transmittal errors detected within the 60-day acceptance period will be corrected by the party delivering the electronic files.
10.4 Following the completion of the Project, Consultant shall act in a manner that ensures and maintains confidentiality of information obtained during the course of the Project.
Consultant’s document retention policies shall ensure that Project Deliverables are retained for a minimum of seven (7) years from the completion of the Project. Upon the request of the District, Consultant shall certify to the District that all materials shall be destroyed and deleted in a manner that ensures confidentiality.
11. CONFIDENTIALITY AND TRADE SECRETS
11.1 As used in this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean and include all information disclosed by the District to Consultant verbally, electronically, visually, or in written or other tangible form which is either identified as confidential or should be reasonably understood by Consultant to be confidential or proprietary, including but not limited to ideas, concepts, theories, designs, approaches, improvements, methods, techniques, procedures, processes, communications, financial information, business information, rate or economic data, trade secrets, hardware, software, IT security information, customer information, billing or collection information, account information, employee information, correspondence, memoranda, data, reports, forecasts, projections, customer lists, potential customer lists, business requirements, strategy or plans, or any discussions or negotiations which incorporate, include, or refer to Confidential Information described in this paragraph.
11.2 Consultant shall ensure that it and its employees, agents, and sub-consultants keep confidential and not disclose to any person or entity the Confidential Information that the District provides to Consultant or to which Consultant gains access in the course of performing the Services, without the District’s prior written consent, which consent may be granted, withheld, or conditioned in the District’s sole discretion. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this section shall not apply to information and materials (i) that are or subsequently become publicly available without Consultant’s breach of this confidentiality provision, (ii) that were known to Consultant prior to the District’s disclosure to Consultant, (iii) that became known to Consultant from a source other than the District and other than by the breach of an obligation of confidentiality owed to the District, (iv) is independently developed by Consultant, or (v) is a public record required to be disclosed by the District pursuant to Subchapter II of Chapter 19 of the Wisconsin Statutes.
Consultant shall notify the District prior to making any disclosure so that the District can dispute whether disclosure pursuant to (i) through (v) above is appropriate. Consultant shall indemnify, defend, and hold the District harmless from all damages, claims, losses, and costs (including attorneys’ fees) related to or arising from Consultant’s breach of these confidentiality provisions. The confidentiality obligations and indemnities contained in this section shall survive for a period of three (3) years following the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
11.3 All copies of all materials relating to the Services whether constituting Confidential
Information or not, must be returned to the District upon completion of the Project.
Regarding documents including Confidential Information, Consultant shall comply with Section 10.4 above. Consultant may not publish, release, disclose, or disseminate to anyone other than the District employees the results of any Services performed or any information obtained from Services performed under this Agreement unless required to do so in accordance with litigation or applicable state law or unless the District grants written approval to publish, release, disclose, or disseminate such information. Materials which are reviewed by Consultant in the course of this Agreement may contain trade secrets which are the property of the District or which have been purchased or leased for use by the District. Consultant may not reveal any trade secrets to any person in any form and may not use any such trade secrets itself for any purpose.
11.4 All Confidential Information in whatever form provided shall remain the property of the
District. Consultant agrees to take all necessary and appropriate actions to protect and maintain the confidentiality of Confidential Information. Consultant shall cooperate with the District in regard to disclosure of Confidential Information that may be required to respond to a public records request.
11.5 Consultant agrees not to use the District’s name, logo, or trademark or refer to the District in any advertising; promotion; announcement; marketing literature; or other type of publication, marketing effort, or advertisement, whether written or oral, without the express prior written approval of the District.
11.6 Consultant shall require personnel provided to the District to comply with the confidentiality provisions set forth in this Section 11. By signing this Agreement, Consultant certifies that its employees, agent and sub-consultants shall each comply with this Section 11.
12. COPYRIGHT AND PATENT GUARANTEES
12.1 Consultant warrants its Services covered by this Agreement will not infringe or contribute directly or indirectly to the infringements of any patents, trademarks, inventions, or copyrights, either in the USA or foreign countries. Consultant (i) shall indemnify and hold the District harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, causes, damages, costs or expenses, including attorneys’ fees of any kind involving any actual or alleged infringements (excluding, however, any infringements solely related to concepts, designs, or ideas furnished in writing by the District which, as between the District and Consultant, originated with the District) or (ii) at the District’s option, shall reimburse the District for all damages, costs, and expenses of any kind including reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the District in defending any such suits or proceedings. In addition to the foregoing, Consultant shall save the District harmless against and shall pay all awards of damages assessed and all costs of suit adjudged against the District in such suits or proceedings, provided the District gives Consultant reasonable notice in writing of the institution of any such suit or proceeding; permits Consultant to defend it; and gives Consultant all such information, assistance, and authority as shall be reasonably necessary to enable it to do
so. In case any part of the Services is held in any such suit or proceeding to constitute infringement and its use is enjoined, Consultant shall, at the District’s option, within a reasonable time either (i) secure for the District the perpetual right to continue the use of such part of the Work by procuring for the District a royalty-free license or such other permission as will enable Consultant to secure the suspension of any injunction, (ii) replace at Consultant’s own expense such part of the Services with an adequate noninfringing part, or (iii) modify it so that it becomes noninfringing.
13. SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS AND BENEFICIARIES
13.1 The District and Consultant are hereby bound, as are their respective successors, employees and representatives to the other party to this Agreement with respect to all covenants, terms, promises, and obligations contained herein.
13.2 Neither the District nor Consultant may assign, sublet, subcontract or transfer any rights or obligations under or interest (including, but without limitation, monies that are due or may become due) in this Agreement without the written consent of the other, except to the extent that any assignment, subletting, or transfer is required by law. Unless specifically stated to the contrary in any written consent to an assignment, no assignment will release or discharge the assignor from any obligation under this Agreement.
13.3 Unless expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, nothing contained shall be construed to create, impose, or give rise to any duty owed by the District or Consultant to any third party, or other individual or entity, or to any surety for or employee of any of them.
All duties and responsibilities undertaken to this Agreement will be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the District and Consultant and not for the benefit of any other party.

15.5 A party’s non-enforcement of any provision shall not constitute a waiver of the provision, nor shall if affect the enforceability of that provision or of the remainder of this Agreement.
15.6 To the fullest extent permitted by law, all causes of action arising under this Agreement shall be deemed to have accrued, and all statutory periods of limitation shall commence, no later than the date of substantial completion of the Project, which is the point where the Project can be utilized for the purposes for which it was intended.

EXHIBIT A
PROJECT
The District and the Madison Public Market Foundation have agreed to collaborate to conceptualize, develop designs for, and construct up to fourteen bathrooms at the Madison Public Market in a manner that is both educational and visually engaging, and that highlights the concept of “One Water”
– the view that all water, including drinking water, wastewater, and stormwater is one interconnected resource that must be managed holistically and sustainably for the benefit of current and future generations (the “Project”).
This Project requires that the Consultant work collaboratively with the District, the Foundation, and other stakeholders to design and construct up to fourteen bathrooms using a mix of art, design, interior architecture, and other creative disciplines in order to do the following (the “Project Goals”):
1. Foster Water Connection: Cultivate a profound connection to the significance of water and individuals' pivotal role in safeguarding this vital resource.
2. Engage and Enlighten: Infuse an educational essence within the bathrooms, acting as a channel for thought-provoking information. Offer visitors enlightening insights that they might not actively seek out, igniting curiosity and awareness.
3. Captivate: Create memorable spaces that prompt introspection. Encourage visitors to reflect upon their relationship with water and their potential to make a positive impact.
4. Stimulate Curiosity and Change: Introduce novelty and creativity to inspire curiosity, nurturing a desire to delve deeper into water resources. Disrupt routine through innovative design, making responsible waste disposal an appealing and convenient choice.
5. Advocate Pro-Environmental Behaviors: Encourage pro-environmental behaviors like water and energy conservation through interactive and visually compelling designs.
The Project may involve the design and construction of fewer than fourteen bathrooms. The District’s vision for the Project favors quality over quantity. During the design process, the Consultant, in collaborating with the District and the Foundation, should prioritize the impact of the Project (through the realization of the Project Goals highlighted above) over the completion of work in all fourteen bathrooms.
