15.0 AIRPORT SECURITY REQUIREMENTS

Provider acknowledges that the Authority is subject to strict federal security regulations limiting access to secure areas of the airport and prohibiting violations of the adopted Airport Security Program. Provider may need access to these secure areas to complete the work required by this Agreement.

Provider therefore agrees, in addition to the other indemnification and assumption of liability provisions set out above, to indemnify and hold harmless the Authority and Lee County, Florida, and their respective commissioners, officers and employees, from any duty to pay any fine or assessment or to satisfy any punitive measure imposed on the Authority or Lee County, Florida by the FAA or any other governmental agency for breaches of security rules and regulations by Provider, its agents, employees, subcontractors, or invitees.

Provider further acknowledges that its employees and agents may be required to undergo background checks and take Airport Security and Access Procedures ("S.I.D.A.") training before receiving an Airport Security Identification Badge.

Immediately upon the completion of any work requiring airport security access under this Agreement, or upon the resignation or dismissal or conclusion of any work justifying airport security access to any Provider agent, employee, subcontractor, or invitee, Provider will notify the Airports Police Department that Provider's access authorization or that of any of Provider's agents, employees, subcontractors, or invitees has changed. Provider will confirm that notice, by written confirmation on company letterhead, within twenty-four (24) hours of providing initial notice to the Airport's Police Department.

Upon termination of this Agreement, or the resignation or dismissal of any employee or agent, or conclusion of any work justifying airport security access to any Provider agent, employee, subcontractor, or invitee, Provider will surrender any Airport Security Identification Badge held by Provider or by Provider's agents, employees, subcontractors, or invitees. A fee is charged for each new, renewed, lost, or unreturned badge. The Authority reserves the right to modify these fees at any time. Current badge fee schedules are available online at:

Any work being conducted within the AOA or that may be in an area requiring access through or around the AOA will be coordinated in advance with the Authority’s Project Coordinator. At no time may the successful Bidder access these areas on its own without prior coordination and/or escort.

16.0 INSURANCE

Before services commence and during the term of this Agreement, Provider will provide, pay for, and maintain insurance with companies satisfactory to Authority in full accordance with the provisions specified in Part F, Insurance, Indemnification and Bond Requirements, as fully set forth in RFP 26-0082MC which is merged into and incorporated by reference as part of this Agreement.

Provider agrees to provide Authority’s Risk Manager (LCPA@trustlayer.io) with a certificate of insurance indicating that all policies have been endorsed to provide advance written notice of any cancellation, intent not to renew, material change or alteration, or reduction in the policy coverages except in the application of the aggregate limits provision of any policy. In the event of a reduction in the aggregate limit of any policy, Provider will immediately take steps to have the aggregate limit reinstated to the full extent permitted under such policy. If there is a cancellation, Provider agrees to obtain replacement coverage as soon as possible. All insurance will be from responsible companies duly authorized to do business, provide coverage, and honor claims in the state of Florida. Provider’s certificate of insurance is included as Exhibit C.

The Authority reserves the right to reject insurance written by an insurer it deems unacceptable due to poor financial condition or other operational deficiencies. All insurance must be placed with insurers with an A.M. Best rating of not less than A-VII.

Regardless of this requirement, the Authority in no way warrants that the required minimum insurer rating is sufficient to protect Provider from potential insurer insolvency.

The acceptance by the Authority of any certificate of insurance evidencing the insurance coverages and limits required in this Agreement does not constitute approval or agreement by the Authority that the insurance requirements have been met or that the insurance policies shown in the certificates of insurance comply with the requirements of this Agreement.

All of Provider’s insurance coverages will be primary and noncontributory to any insurance or self-insurance program carried by the Authority and applicable to work under this Agreement and will include a waiver of subrogation in favor of the Authority.

No work will commence, or any services or products be provided, under this Agreement unless and until the required certificates of insurance are received and approved by the Authority.

16.1 OTHER INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

[if applicable]: Crime Insurance/Fidelity Bond - Provider will maintain crime insurance coverage, or at the discretion of Authority, a Fidelity Bond, with limits equal to fifty percent (50%) of the Agreement value or $50,000.00, whichever is greater. The bond or policy will include coverage for all directors, officers, agents, and employees of the contractor. The bond or policy will include coverage for third-party fidelity and name the Rev. 7.21.2026 7 mailto:LCPA@trustlayer.io

Subcontractor’s requirement - The Provider must ensure that its agents, representatives, and subcontractors comply with the insurance requirements set forth herein. All liability insurance policies obtained to meet the requirements of this Agreement, other than Workers' Compensation and Employer's Liability and Professional Liability policies, will name Authority as an additional insured and will contain the severability of interest provisions. By signing this Agreement, Provider further agrees to waive its right to subrogation against the Authority.

17.0 ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER, AND SUBCONTRACTS

Provider may not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits, or obligations under the Agreement without prior written approval of the Authority. Provider will have the right, subject to the Authority's prior written approval, to employ other persons and/or companies to serve as subcontractors to Provider for Provider’s performance of services and work under this Agreement.

18.0 PROVIDER: AN INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR

Provider is an independent contractor and is not an employee or agent of the

Authority. Nothing in this Agreement will be interpreted to establish any relationship other than that of an independent contractor between the Authority and Provider, its employees, agents, subcontractors, or assigns, during or after the performance of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement may be deemed to give any such party a right of action against Authority beyond such right as might otherwise exist without regard to this Agreement.

Provider, for itself, its successors in interest, and assigns, as part of the consideration hereof, agrees that it will not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, sex, disability, or other protected factor in the performance of this Agreement.

Any delay or postponement of payment beyond these time limits may occur only for good cause following written approval of the delay by Authority.

Rev. 7.21.2026 10

27.3 INCORPORATION OF PROVISIONS. Provider will include the provisions of paragraphs 27.1 and 27.2 in every subcontract, unless exempt by the above-stated federal regulations or federal directives.
