AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
This Agreement For Professional Services (this "Agreement") is entered into on December
17t—, 2020 (the "Effective Date"), by and between the City of South Bend, acting by and through
its Board of Public Works (the "City"), and Troyer Group, a corporation with its
Principal place of business located at 3930 Edison Lakes Parkway, Mishawaka, Indiana (the
"Provider") (each a "Party" and collectively the "Parties").
For and in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein, the Parties
agree as follows:
1. Services. The Provider will provide to the City the professional services (the
"Services") set forth in the Provider's proposal attached hereto as Exhibit A (the "Proposal"),
which Proposal is incorporated herein. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Agreement and the terms of the Proposal, the terms of this Agreement will prevail. The Provider
will execute its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the prevailing professional
standard of care for projects of similar design and complexity.
2. Compensation. In exchange for the Provider's satisfactory performance of the
Services, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the City will pay the Provider
the Program Fee stated in the Proposal (the "Contract Amount") in accordance with the project
budget stated in the Proposal. The City will pay the Contract Amount in installments upon
invoicing by the Provider as set forth in the Proposal (each a "Contract Installment"). The City
will not be required to pay any Contract Installment if the City is not satisfied with the Provider's
performance under this Agreement or any default or breach of this Agreement by the Provider
exists, as the City may determine in its sole discretion. The sum of all Contract Installments will
not exceed the Contract Amount, and the Provider will not incur or seek reimbursement for any
expenses in excess of the Contract Amount.
3. Term, Termination. Unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms, this
Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and end upon the Provider's satisfaction of all
its obligations hereunder and the City's final payment therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
effective immediately upon delivery of a written termination notice to the Provider, the City may
terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part, for any reason, if the City determines that such
termination is in the best interest of the City. In addition, in accordance with Ind. Code 6-1.1-18-
4, payments are subject to annual appropriation by the City. If the City makes a written
determination that funds are not appropriated or are otherwise unavailable to support the
continuation of this Agreement, it shall be cancelled. A determination by the City that funds are
not appropriated or are otherwise unavailable to support the continuation of performance shall be
final and conclusive. The City will not be required to pay any Contract Installment or be otherwise
liable for any cost associated with the Provider's performance of any Services after the effective
date of termination.
4. Remedies for Breach of Contract. Failure to complete the Services in accordance
with this Agreement will be considered a material breach. In the event of such breach, the City
may suspend all payments to the Provider and may pursue any and all remedies available at law
1
or in equity. The Provider shall repay to the City any portion of the Contract Amount expended
for matters not within the scope of the Services.
5. Point of Contact. The City employee identified in Section 9 below will serve as the
City's principal point of contact for purposes of this Agreement.
6. Relationship. The Provider shall at all times be an independent contractor for the
performance of the Services rather than an employee of the City, and no act or omission to act by
the Provider shall in any way bind or obligate the City. This Agreement is strictly for the benefit
of the Parties and not for any third party or person. This Agreement was negotiated by the Parties
at arm's length and each of the parties hereto has reviewed the Agreement after the opportunity to
consult with independent legal counsel. Neither party shall maintain that the language in the
Agreement shall be construed against any signatory hereto. The City and the Provider hereby
renounce the existence of any form of agency relationship, joint venture, or partnership between
the Provider and the City and agree that nothing contained herein or in any document executed in
connection herewith shall be construed as creating any such relationship between the City and the
Provider.
7. Indemnification of City. The Provider hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless the City, its officials, employees, and agents from any and all claims of any nature
which arise from the performance by the Provider under this Agreement and from all costs and
attorney fees in connection therewith, excepting for claims arising out of the negligence of the
City, its officials, directors, employees, and agents. The obligations of the Provider under this
section shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
8. Assignment. The Provider shall not assign or subcontract the whole or any part of
this Agreement or its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the City.
9. Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be delivered hereunder shall be
deemed to be delivered, whether or not actually received, when deposited in the United States
Postal Service, postage prepaid, registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to
the City or the Provider, as the case may be, at the address set forth below.

that:
1. Contractor has not, nor has any other member, representative, or agent of the firm, company,

without any agreement, understanding or combination with any other person in reference to such bidding.
Contractor further says that no person or persons, firms, or corporation has, have or will receive directly or
indirectly, any rebate, fee, gift, commission or thing of value on account of such sale; and
2. Contractor certifies by submission of this proposal that neither contractor nor any of its principals
are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from

3. Contractor has not, nor has any successor to, nor an affiliate of, Contractor, engaged in
investment activities in Iran.
a. For purposes of this Certification, "Iran" means the government of Iran and any agency
or instrumentality of Iran, or as otherwise defined at Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-5, as
amended from time -to -time.
b. As provided by Ind. Code § 5-22-16.5-8, as amended from time -to -time, a Contractor
is engaged in investment activities in Iran if either:
i. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, provides goods or services of twenty
million dollars ($20,000,000) or more in value in the energy sector of Iran;
or
ii. Contractor, its successor or its affiliate, is a financial institution that extends

Contractor agrees that he/she/it shall enroll in and verify the work eligibility status of all of Contractor's
newly hired employees through the E-Verify Program as defined by I.C. 22-5-1.7-3. Contractor's
documentation of enrollment and participation in the E-Verify Program is included and attached as part of
this bid/quote; and
5. Contractor shall require his/her/its subcontractors performing work under this public contract to
certify that the subcontractors do not knowingly employ or contract with an unauthorized alien, nor retain
any employee or contract with a person that the subcontractor subsequently learns is an unauthorized alien,
and that the subcontractor has enrolled in and is participating in the E-Verify Program. The Contractor agrees
to maintain this certification throughout the term of the contract with the City of South Bend, and understands
that the City may terminate the contract for default if the Contractor fails to cure a breach of this provision

6. Persons, firms, partnerships, corporations, associations, or joint venturers awarded a contract by the
City of South Bend through its agencies, boards, or commissions shall not discriminate against any employee
or applicant for employment in the performance of a City contract with respect to hire, tenure, terms,

In awarding contracts for the purchase of work, labor, services, supplies, equipment, materials, or any
combination of the foregoing including, but not limited to, public works contracts awarded under public

a part of any contract which it may henceforth enter into with the City of South Bend, Indiana or any of its
agencies, boards or commissions.

performance of this contract with privileges of employment, or any matter directly or indirectly related to
employment, because of race, religion, color, sex, gender expression, gender identity, sexual orientation,
handicap, national origin or ancestry. Breach of this provision may be regarded as material breach of
contract.

products made in the United States on this project if awarded. I understand I have an affirmative duty to
notify the City in my bid that my proposal does not include the use of steel products or foundry products
made in the United States. I understand it is my sole obligation and responsibility to provide a justification
to the City, subject to review and approval, why the cost of United States made steel or foundry products is
unreasonable. Prior to award and upon submission of bid which does not use steel products or foundry
products made in the United States, the City, through its director of public works, shall make a determination
if the price of United States made steel or foundry is unreasonable. I understand that violations hereunder
may result in forfeiture of contractual payments.
I hereby affirm under the penalties of perjury that the facts and information contained in the foregoing bid
for public works are true and correct.
