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
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 Service Provider of
such termination. If the Agreement is terminated pursuant to this section, Service
Provider 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.

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, Service
Provider shall expressly require any sub-Service Provider performing work or providing
services pursuant to the Agreement to likewise utilize the U.S. Department of Homeland

contract with an approved sub-Service Provider, the sub-Service Provider must provide
the Service Pravider with an affidavit stating that the sub-Service Provider does not
employ, contract with, or subcontract with an unauthorized alien. Service Provider shall
maintain a copy of such affidavit for the duration of the contract or such other extended
period as may be required under this Agreement.
(B) TERMINATION RIGHTS.

Section 448.09(1), Florida Statutes, which prohibits any person from knowingly
employing, hiring, recruiting, or referring an alien who is not duly authorized to
work by the immigration laws or the Attorney General of the United States, the
City shall terminate this Agreement with Service Provider for cause, and the City
shall thereafter have or owe no further obligation or liability to Service Provider.
(2) If the City has a good faith belief that a sub-Service Provider has knowingly
violated the foregoing Subsection 10.9(A), but the Service Provider otherwise
complied with such subsection, the City will promptly notify the Service Provider
and order the Service Provider to immediately terminate the contract with the
sub-Service Provider. Service Provider's failure to terminate a sub-Service
Provider shall be an event of default under this Agreement, entitling City to
terminate this Agreement 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 Service Provider or a sub-Service Provider may file an action with
the Circuit or County Court to challenge a termination under the foregoing
13
Docusign Envelope ID:DB958992-FE24-41E8-AEC6-4EA252AE74C7
Subsection (B)(1) or(B)(2) no later than 20 calendar days after the date on which

Subsection (B)(1), Service Provider may not be awarded a public contract for at
