half of the total costs incurred by MORGAN HILL to plan, organize and coordinate the
2nd Chance Week event pursuant to this AGREEMENT which includes direct costs for

which is attached hereto. The contribution of GILROY to MORGAN HILL under this
AGREEMENT shall be a lump sum amount of $8,347 for implementation of the 2025 2nd

incurred to plan, coordinate, and organize the Annual 2nd Chance Week event. GILROY
shall pay MORGAN HILL the amount invoiced within forty-five (45) days of their receipt

SECTION 5. INDEMNIFICATION.
In lieu of and notwithstanding the pro rata risk allocation which might otherwise be
imposed between the parties to this AGREEMENT pursuant to Government Code
Section 895.6, the Parties agree that all losses or liabilities incurred by a Party shall not
be shared pro rata, but instead, pursuant to Government Code Section 895.4, each of
the parties hereto shall fully indemnify and hold each of the other parties, its officers,
board members, employees and agents, harmless from any claim, expense or cost,
damage or liability imposed for injury (as defined by Government Code Section 810.8)
occurring by reason of the negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of the
indemnifying party, its officers, board members, employees or agents, under or in
connection with or arising out of any work, authority or jurisdiction delegated to such
Party under this AGREEMENT. No Party, nor any officer, board member, employee or
agent thereof shall be responsible for any damage or liability occurring by reason of the
negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct of other parties hereto, their officers,
board members, employees or agents, under or in connection with or arising out of any
work, authority or jurisdiction delegated to such other parties under this AGREEMENT.
SECTION 6. TERMINATION.
A. Upon signing this AGREEMENT, GILROY agrees to pay in lump sum for

this AGREEMENT once executed because the deliverable timeline spans only
four months, and the service is a public facing event that will be advertised

AGREEMENT, then GILROY may pursue all remedies available by law.

or national origin, in connection with or related to the performance of this AGREEMENT.
SECTION 9. ASSIGNABILITY.
MORGAN HILL acknowledges and understands that the expertise and experience of
MORGAN HILL is a material consideration inducing GILROY to enter into this
AGREEMENT. MORGAN HILL may not assign nor transfer any interest in this
AGREEMENT, nor the performance of any of its duties and responsibilities under this
AGREEMENT, without the prior written consent of GILROY. Any attempt by MORGAN
HILL to so assign or transfer this AGREEMENT or the performance of any of MORGAN

Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure
ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE
From time to time, City of Morgan Hill (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide
to you certain written notices or disclosures. Described below are the terms and conditions for
providing to you such notices and disclosures electronically through the DocuSign system.
Please read the information below carefully and thoroughly, and if you can access this
information electronically to your satisfaction and agree to this Electronic Record and Signature
Disclosure (ERSD), please confirm your agreement by selecting the check-box next to ‘I agree to
use electronic records and signatures’ before clicking ‘CONTINUE’ within the DocuSign
system.
Getting paper copies
At any time, you may request from us a paper copy of any record provided or made available
electronically to you by us. You will have the ability to download and print documents we send
to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you
elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time
(usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you. After such time, if you wish for us to
send you paper copies of any such documents from our office to you, you will be charged a
$0.00 per-page fee. You may request delivery of such paper copies from us by following the
procedure described below.
Withdrawing your consent
If you decide to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, you may at any time
change your mind and tell us that thereafter you want to receive required notices and disclosures
only in paper format. How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and
disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures
electronically is described below.
Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the
speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to
you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format,
and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such
paper notices or disclosures. Further, you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to
receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents
from us.
