10.8 FORCE MAJEURE
(A) A "Force Majeure" event is an event that (i) in fact causes a delay in the performance of
the Consultant or the City's obligations under the Agreement, and (ii) is beyond the
reasonable control of such party unable to perform the obligation, and (iii) is not due to
an intentional act, error, omission, or negligence of such party, and (iv) could not have
reasonably been foreseen and prepared for by such party at any time prior to the
occurrence of the event. Subject to the foregoing criteria, Force Majeure may include
events such as war, civil insurrection, riot, fires, epidemics, pandemics, terrorism,
sabotage, explosions, embargo restrictions, quarantine restrictions, transportation
accidents, strikes, strong hurricanes or tornadoes, earthquakes, or other acts of God
which prevent performance. Force Majeure shall not include technological impossibility,
inclement weather, or failure to secure any of the required permits pursuant to the
Agreement.
(B) If the City or Consultant's performance of its contractual obligations is prevented or
delayed by an event believed by to be Force Majeure, such party shall immediately,
upon learning of the occurrence of the event or of the commencement of any such delay,
but in any case within fifteen (15) business days thereof, provide notice: (i) of the
occurrence of event of Force Majeure, (ii) of the nature of the event and the cause
thereof, (iii) of the anticipated impact on the Agreement, (iv) of the anticipated period of
the delay, and (v) of what course of action such party plans to take in order to mitigate
the detrimental effects of the event. The timely delivery of the notice of the occurrence of
a Force Majeure event is a condition precedent to allowance of any relief pursuant to this
section; however, receipt of such notice shall not constitute acceptance that the event
claimed to be a Force Majeure event is in fact Force Majeure, and the burden of proof of
the occurrence of a Force Majeure event shall be on the requesting party.
(C) No party hereto shall be liable for its failure to carry out its obligations under the
Agreement during a period when such party is rendered unable, in whole or in part, by
Force Majeure to carry out such obligations. The suspension of any of the obligations
under this Agreement due to a Force Majeure event shall be of no greater scope and no
longer duration than is required. The party shall use its reasonable best efforts to
continue to perform its obligations hereunder to the extent such obligations are not
affected or are only partially affected by the Force Majeure event, and to correct or cure
the event or condition excusing performance and otherwise to remedy its inability to
perform to the extent its inability to perform is the direct result of the Force Majeure
event with all reasonable dispatch.
(D) Obligations pursuant to the Agreement that arose before the occurrence of a Force
Majeure event, causing the suspension of performance, shall not be excused as a result
of such occurrence unless such occurrence makes such performance not reasonably
11
possible. The obligation to pay money in a timely manner for obligations and liabilities
which matured prior to the occurrence of a Force Majeure event shall not be subject to
the Force Majeure provisions.
(E) Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary herein, in the event of a Force
Majeure occurrence, the City may, at the sole discretion of the City Manager, suspend
the City's payment obligations under the Agreement, and may take such action without
regard to the notice requirements herein. Additionally, in the event that an event of
Force Majeure delays a party's performance under the Agreement for a time period
greater than thirty (30) days, the City may, at the sole discretion of the City Manager,
terminate the Agreement on a given date, by giving written notice to Consultant of such
termination. If the Agreement is terminated pursuant to this section, Consultant shall be
paid for any Services satisfactorily performed up to the date of termination; following
which the City shall be discharged from any and all liabilities, duties, and terms arising
out of, or by virtue of, this Agreement. In no event will any condition of Force Majeure
extend this Agreement beyond its stated term.
10.9 E-VERIFY
(A) Consultant shall comply with Section 448.095, Florida Statutes, "Employment Eligibility"
("E-Verify Statute"), as may be amended from time to time. Pursuant to the E-Verify
Statute, commencing on January 1, 2021, Consultant shall register with and use the E-
Verify system to verify the work authorization status of all newly hired employees during
the Term of the Agreement. Additionally, Consultant shall expressly require any
subconsultant performing work or providing services pursuant to the Agreement to
likewise utilize the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's E-Verify system to verify the
employment eligibility of all new employees hired by the subconsultant during the
contract Term. If Consultant enters into a contract with an approved subconsultant, the
subconsultant must provide the Consultant with an affidavit stating that the
subconsultant does not employ, contract with, or subcontract with an unauthorized
alien. Consultant shall maintain a copy of such affidavit for the duration of the
Agreement or such other extended period as may be required under this Agreement.
(B) TERMINATION RIGHTS.

448.09(1), Florida Statutes, the City shall terminate this Agreement with
Consultant for cause, and the City shall thereafter have or owe no further
obligation or liability to Consultant.
(2) If the City has a good faith belief that a subconsultant has knowingly violated the
foregoing Subsection 10.9(A), but the Consultant otherwise complied with such
subsection, the City will promptly notify the Consultant and order the Consultant
to immediately terminate the Agreement with the subconsultant. Consultant's
failure to terminate a subconsultant shall be an event of default under this
Agreement, entitling City to terminate the Consultant's contract for cause.
(3) A contract terminated under the foregoing Subsection (B)(1) or (B)(2) is not in
breach of contract and may not be considered as such.
(4) The City or Consultant or a subconsultant may file an action with the Circuit or
County Court to challenge a termination under the foregoing Subsection (B)(1) or
(B)(2) no later than 20 calendar days after the date on which the contract was

12
Subsection (B)(1), Consultant may not be awarded a public contract for at least 1

CULTURAL ARTS EMERGENCY FUND
On May 13,2020,the Mayor and City Commission adopted Resolution 2020-31268 accepting the
recommendations of the Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee(FERC),at its April 17 and
April 24,2020 meetings,approving the use of prior year accumulated Cultural Arts Council(CAC)
fund balance and endowment funds to establish a"Cultural Arts Emergency Fund"in the amount of
$1.0 million to provide financial assistance to Miami Beach-based cultural organizations
experiencing revenue losses due to the COVID-19 crisis.
As part of the FY 2021 budget adopted through Resolution 2020-31428,an additional$1.0 million of
CAC fund balance and endowment funds was allocated to provide further funding relief to cultural
organizations in the City of Miami Beach impacted by COVID-19, of which $500,000 was
appropriated at the commencement of FY 2021 as part of the adopted budget and the remaining
$500,000 balance was proposed to be appropriated mid-year of FY 2021.
At the April 30, 2021 Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee (FERC) meeting, the City
Administration provided an update on the status of the CARES Act funds received by the City,as
well as an update on the status of the funding previously allocated to provide financial assistance to
Miami Beach-based cultural organizations experiencing revenue losses due to COVID-19. Based
on discussion, the FERC recommended that,among other things and in addition to the previous
funding allocated to provide further funding relief to cultural organizations in the City of Miami Beach
impacted by COVID-19, up to an additional$1.0 million be allocated to expand cultural activation
and programming in the City.
This proposed amendment appropriates the remaining $500,000 balance of the $1.0 million
allocated in the FY 2021 budget adopted through Resolution 2020-31428 to provide further funding
relief to cultural organizations in the City of Miami Beach impacted by COVID-19 from prior year

programming as recommended by the Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee(FERC)at its

CONVENTION CENTER LEGAL FEES -
Clark Construction Group, LLC("Clark")is the City of Miami Beach's construction manager for the
Miami Beach Convention Center("MBCC")renovation project,which is comprised of a 1.5 million
square foot renovation and expansion of the MBCC,including approximately 500,000 square feet of
exhibit halls, meeting rooms, pre-function and support spaces, a new 60,000 square foot grand
ballroom, and a new rooftop parking area.
On July 9, 2019, the City declared Clark in default of its contractual obligations related to the
construction of the MBCC project.Subsequently,on January 31,2020,Clark filed a lawsuit against
the City and Hill International Inc. ("Hill"),the City's owner's representative for the MBCC project.
The claims Clark has alleged against the City include:(1)seeking a court declaration that the City is
required to grant time extensions;(2)seeking a court declaration that the City is required to release
retainage;(3)Breach of Contract;and(4)Breach of Covenant of Good faith and Fair Dealing.The
City disputes Clark's allegations and claims.
On February 20, 2020, the City filed its Answer, Counterclaim, and Third-Party Complaint. The
City's Counterclaim against Clark alleges:(1)Breach of Contract and(2)Breach of the Covenant of
Good Faith and Fair dealing. Additionally, the City filed a Third-Party Complaint against Clark's
performance bond sureties for Breach of Performance Bond.The performance bond guarantees
Clark's performance of its contractual obligations to the City under the construction Contract,and
secures the City by causing the sureties to assume liability for any and all damages,including,but
not limited to,liquidated damages arising from Clark's default of its contractual obligations under the
contract.
The City,Clark,and Hill have engaged in extensive discovery,with over 6 million documents being
exchanged, and the City anticipates in excess of 60 depositions in connection with the litigation.
Additionally, the parties have engaged a litany of experts in various fields, including construction
scheduling, delays, design, and construction manager standard of care. The parties have also
engaged in two rounds of mediation and the Court has required another mediation take place prior
to trial.
The City intends on vigorously defending the lawsuit and asserting its affirmative claims against
Clark.Clark has yet to complete the work,and Clark's multiple and continuing breaches of contract
have caused the City to sustain considerable damages.
At the April 21, 2021 City Commission meeting, the City Administration presented the 3'd
Amendment to the FY 2021 Operating Budget, which recommended the appropriation of$4.0
