CONTRACTED PERSONNEL SERVICES
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
I. General Terms and Conditions
1 Relationship Between Engineering and Client: Ciorba Group, Inc. (Engineer)
shall serve as Client's professional engineering consultant in those phases of the
Project to which this Agreement applies. This relationship is that of a buyer and
seller of professional services and as such the Engineer is an independent
contractor in the performance of this Agreement and it is understood that the
parties have not entered into any joint venture or partnership with the other. The
Engineer shall not be considered to be the agent of the Client.
2. Responsibility of the Engineer: The Engineer will strive to perform services
under this Agreement in accordance with generally accepted and currently
recognized engineering practices and principles, and in a manner consistent with
that level of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the profession
currently practicing in the same locality under similar conditions. No other
representation, express or implied, and no warranty or guarantee is included or
intended in this Agreement, or in any report, opinion, document or otherwise.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary which may be contained in this
Agreement or any material incorporated herein by reference, or in any
Agreement between the Client and any other party concerning the Project, the
Engineer shall not have control or be in charge of and shall not be responsible for
the means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or
the safety, safety precautions or programs of the Client, the construction
contractor, other contractors or subcontractors performing any of the work or
providing any of the services on the Project. Nor shall the Engineer be
responsible for the acts or omissions of the Client, or for the failure of the Client,
any architect, engineer, consultant, contractor or subcontractor to carry out their
respective responsibilities in accordance with the Project documents, this
Agreement which purports to amend this provision shall be without effect unless
it contains a reference that the content of this condition is expressly amended for
the purposes described in such amendment and is signed by the Engineer.
3. Changes: Client reserves the right by written change order or amendment to
make changes in requirements, amount of work, or engineering time schedule
adjustments, and Engineer and Client shall negotiate appropriate adjustments
acceptable to both parties to accommodate any changes, if commercially
possible.
4. Suspension of Services: Client, may at any time, by written order to Engineer
(Suspension of Services Order) require Engineer to stop all or any part of the
services required by this Agreement. Upon receipt of such an order, Engineer
shall immediately comply with its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize
the costs associated with the services affected by such order. Client, however,
shall pay all costs incurred by the suspension, including all costs necessary to
maintain continuity and for the resumptions of the services upon expiration of the
Suspension of Services Order. Engineer will not be obligated to provide the same
personnel employed prior to suspension, when the services are resumed, in the
event that the period of suspension is greater than thirty (30) days.
5. Termination: This Agreement may be terminated by either party upon ten (10)
working days written notice in the event of substantial failure by the other party to
perform in accordance with the terms hereof through no fault of the terminating
party. This Agreement may be terminated by Client, under the same terms,
whenever Client shall determined that termination is in its best interests.
6. Documents Delivered to Client: Drawings, specifications, reports and other
Project Documents prepared by Engineer in connection with any or all of the
services furnished hereunder shall be delivered to the Client for the use of the
Client.

Agreement in a manner consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily
exercised by members of the profession currently practicing in the same locality
under similar conditions as of the date of this Agreement.

professional care in his efforts to comply with those laws, codes, ordinances and
regulations, which are in effect as of the date of this Agreement.
9. Indemnification: Engineer shall indemnify and hold harmless Client from loss or
expense, including reasonable attorney's fees for claims for personal injury
(including death) or property damage arising out of the sole negligent act, error or
omission of Engineer.
Client shall indemnify and hold harmless Engineer under this Agreement, from
loss or expense, including reasonable attorney's fees, for claims for personal
injuries (including death) or property damage arising out of the sole negligent act,
error or omission of Client.

bear that portion of the loss or expense that its share of the joint or concurrent
negligence bears to the total negligence (including that of third parties), which
caused the personal injury or property damage.
Engineer shall not be liable for special, incidental or consequential damages,
including, but not limited to loss of profits, revenue, use of capital claims of
2
customers, cost of purchased or replacement power, or for any other loss of any
nature, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, by
reasons of the services rendered under this Agreement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Engineer hereby agrees to defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the client, its officials, agents and employees,
against all injuries, deaths, loss, damages, claims, patent claims, suits, liabilities,
judgments, cost and expenses, which may in any way accrue against the
member, its officials, agents and employees, arising in whole or in part or in
consequence of negligent performance of this work by the Engineer, its
employees or subconsultants, or which may in any way result therefore, except
that arising out of the sole legal cause of the member, its agents or employees,
the Engineer shall, at its own expense, appear, defend and pay all charges of
attorneys and all costs and other expenses arising therefore or incurred in
connections therewith, and, of any judgment shall be rendered against the

whole or in part without the prior written approval of the other.
12. Waiver of Contract Breach: The waiver of one party of any breach of this
Agreement or the failure of one party to enforce at any time, or for any period of
time, any provisions hereof, shall be limited to the particular instance, shall not

instance.

this Agreement.
3

held to be invalid in the particular state, county or jurisdiction and the rights or
obligations of the parties hereto shall be construed and enforced accordingly.
