26. Waiver. The failure of either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver by that party of that or any other provision. No waiver or consent shall be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom it is asserted.
27. Contribution.
a. If any third party makes any claim or brings any action, suit or proceeding alleging a tort as now or hereafter defined in ORS 30.260 (“Third Party Claim”) against a party (the “Notified Party”) with respect to which the other party
(“Other Party”) may have liability, the Notified Party must promptly notify the
Other Party in writing of the Third Party Claim and deliver to the Other Party a copy of the claim, process, and all legal pleadings with respect to the Third Party
Claim. Either party is entitled to participate in the defense of a Third Party Claim, 000000 / JFG Page 19 of 28 and to defend a Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing. Receipt by the Other Party of the notice and copies required in this paragraph and meaningful opportunity for the Other Party to participate in the investigation, defense and settlement of the Third Party Claim with counsel of its own choosing are conditions precedent to the Other Party’s liability with respect to the Third Party
Claim.
b. With respect to a Third Party Claim for which the State is jointly liable with
County (or would be if joined in the Third Party Claim), the State shall contribute to the amount of expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by County in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the
State on the one hand and of County on the other hand in connection with the events which resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the
State on the one hand and of the County on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances resulting in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts. The State’s contribution amount in any instance is capped to the same extent it would have been capped under Oregon law if the State had sole liability in the proceeding.
c. With respect to a Third Party Claim for which County is jointly liable with the
State (or would be if joined in the Third Party Claim), County shall contribute to the amount of expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred and paid or payable by the
State in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of County on the one hand and of the State on the other hand in connection with the events which resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of County on the one hand and of the State on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances resulting in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts. County’s contribution amount in any instance is capped to the same extent it would have been capped under
Oregon law if it had sole liability in the proceeding.
28. Indemnification by Subcontractors. County shall take all reasonable steps to cause its contractor(s) that are not units of local government as defined in ORS 190.003, if any, to indemnify, defend, save and hold harmless the State of Oregon and its officers, employees and agents (“Indemnitee”) from and against any and all claims, actions, liabilities, damages, losses, or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from a tort (as now or hereafter defined in ORS 30.260) caused, or alleged to be caused, in whole or in part, by the negligent or willful acts or omissions of County’s contractor or any of the officers, agents, employees or subcontractors of the contractor (“Claims”). It is the specific intention of the parties that the Indemnitee shall, in all instances, except for
Claims arising solely from the negligent or willful acts or omissions of the Indemnitee, be indemnified by the contractor from and against any and all Claims.

29. Stop-Work Order. OHA may, at any time, by written notice to County, require the
County to stop all, or any part of the work required by this Agreement for a period of up to 90 days after the date of the notice, or for any further period to which the parties may agree through a duly executed amendment. Upon receipt of the notice, County shall immediately comply with the Stop-Work Order terms and take all necessary steps to minimize the incurrence of costs allocable to the work affected by the stop work order notice. Within a period of 90 days after issuance of the written notice, or within any extension of that period to which the parties have agreed, OHA shall either:
a. Cancel or modify the stop work order by a supplementary written notice; or
b. Terminate the work as permitted by either the Default or the Convenience provisions of Section 10. Termination.
If the Stop Work Order is canceled, OHA may, after receiving and evaluating a request by County, make an adjustment in the time required to complete this Agreement and the
Agreement price by a duly executed amendment.

EXHIBIT C
Subcontractor Insurance Requirements
County shall require its first-tier Contractor(s) (Contractor) that are not units of local government as defined in ORS 190.003, if any, to:
i) obtain the insurance specified under TYPES AND AMOUNTS and meet the requirements under ADDITIONAL INSURED, CONTINUOUS CLAIMS MADE COVERAGE, NOTICE
OF CANCELLATION OR CHANGE, and CERTIFICATES OF INSURANCE before the
Contractor(s) perform under contracts between County and the Contractors (the
"Subcontracts"), and
ii) maintain the insurance in full force throughout the duration of the Subcontracts. The insurance must be provided by insurance companies or entities authorized to transact the business of insurance and issue coverage in the State of Oregon and that are acceptable to Agency.
County shall not authorize Contractors to begin work under the Subcontracts until the insurance is in full force. Thereafter, County shall monitor continued compliance with the insurance requirements on an annual or more frequent basis. County shall incorporate appropriate provisions in the Subcontracts permitting it to enforce Contractor compliance with the insurance requirements and shall take all reasonable steps to enforce such compliance. Examples of "reasonable steps" include issuing stop work orders (or the equivalent) until the insurance is in full force, terminating the Subcontracts as permitted by the Subcontracts, or pursuing legal action to enforce the insurance requirements. In no event, shall County permit a Contractor to work under a Subcontract when the County is aware that the Contractor is not in compliance with the insurance requirements. As used in this section, a "first-tier" Contractor is a Contractor with which the County directly enters into a contract. It does not include a subcontractor with which the Contractor enters into a contract.
If Contractor maintains broader coverage and/or higher limits than the minimums shown in this insurance requirement exhibit, Agency requires and shall be entitled to the broader coverage and/or higher limits maintained by Contractor.

All employers, including Contractor, that employ subject workers, as defined in ORS 656.027, shall comply with ORS 656.017 and shall provide Workers' Compensation Insurance coverage for those workers, unless they meet the requirement for an exemption under ORS 656.126(2). Contractor shall require and ensure that each of its subcontractors complies with these requirements. If Contractor is a subject employer, as defined in ORS 656.023, Contractor shall also obtain Employers' Liability
Insurance coverage with limits not less than $500,000 each accident.
If Contractor is an employer subject to any other state’s workers’ compensation law, Contactor shall provide Workers’ compensation Insurance coverage for its employees as required by applicable workers’ compensation laws including Employers’ Liability Insurance coverage with limits not less than $500,000 and shall require and ensure that each of its out-of-state subcontractors complies with these requirements.
