termination, Gettysburg College shall be relieved of all further
obligations hereunder and Contractor shall be liable to
Gettysburg College for all costs incurred by Gettysburg College
in completing such Work in excess of the total compensation
herein defined. Upon 15 days written notice, Gettysburg College,
at its option, may cancel this Contract at any time, whether or not
Contractor is in default of any of its obligations hereunder. Upon
any such cancellation, Contractor agrees to waive any claim for
damages, including lose of anticipated profits on account thereof.
However, provided that Contractor is not in default of its
obligations hereunder, Gettysburg College agrees that Contractor
shall be paid an amount which when added to all installments
previously paid will equal the sum of all costs properly incurred
prior to date of cancellation, plus earned profit on such incurred
costs, but in no event shall such amount be greater than the
Contract price. Such earned profit shall bear the same
relationship to such incurred costs as the profit increment of the
Contract price bears to the costs increment of such Contract
price. Gettysburg College reserves the right to verify the
amounts of such costs and profit increments through an audit of
Contractor's records. Gettysburg College reserves the right to
suspend the Work of the Contractor at any time in Gettysburg
College's sole discretion. Gettysburg College shall give
Contractor written notice of said suspension of Work.
Gettysburg College agrees to pay Contractor for its costs,
charges, and expenses arising out of the suspension of this
Contract caused by the exercise of Gettysburg College's rights set
forth herein. Costs, charges and expenses shall be exclusive of
anticipated profit. Contractor shall include the foregoing
provisions in all subcontracts in which it enters to the end that
Gettysburg College and Contractor shall have the rights therein
set forth with respect to each subcontractor.
8) INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR: Contractor agrees
that it is an independent Contractor in the performance of any
Work hereunder and that neither it nor its employees shall be
considered employees of Gettysburg College. Contractor shall
retain control or direction of the manner and method of
performance of Work under this Contract and Gettysburg
College shall have the right of supervision merely as to the results
of the Work. Gettysburg College shall not be responsible for the
direct payment of any withholding taxes, social security payments,
payments under workmen's compensation or other insurance
premiums, or other charges of any kind or nature, except as
specifically outlined herein. Contractor hereby certifies that it will
deduct and pay over to the proper governmental authority and
withholding taxes or similar assessments which an employer is
required to deduct and pay over and Contractor accepts exclusive
liability for any payroll taxes or contributions imposed by any
federal, state or other governmental authority, covering its agents
or employees.
9) LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY: Contractor agrees to
defend and indemnify Gettysburg College, as well as the
employees, agents, officers, and trustees of Gettysburg College,
against all loss, damage, and expense which it may sustain or for
which it will become liable on account of injury to or death of
persons, or on account of damage to or destruction of property
resulting from the performance of work under this Contract by
Contractor or its subcontractors, or due to or arising in any
manner from the wrongful act or negligence of Contractor or its
subcontractors of any employee of any of them. This clause shall
survive termination of this Contract.
10) COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS: Contractor agrees that all
Work performed under this Contract shall conform with all
applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and executive
orders, and all amendments thereto, unless specifically exempt.
11) ACCEPTANCE: When all Work is completed Contractor
shall so notify Gettysburg College, and Gettysburg College shall
have the right to a final review of the Work including any and all
records and reports maintained by Contractor in connection with
the Work. Gettysburg College shall either notify Contractor of
its acceptance of the Work or issue to Contractor a description of
deficiencies requiring correction in order for the Work to
conform to the Contract requirements. Upon correction to
Gettysburg College's satisfaction of such deficiencies by
Contractor, Gettysburg College shall be deemed to have accepted
the Work.
12) INSURANCE: When performing hereunder, Contractor
shall carry and maintain comprehensive public liability insurance,
including contractual liability, property damage, workers'
compensation, and employer's liability insurance with coverage
satisfactory to Gettysburg College. Prior to commencement of
any services to be performed hereunder, if requested, Contractor
shall deliver to Gettysburg College certificates of such insurance
naming Gettysburg College as an additional insured, and which
stipulate that not less than 30 days' notice will be given
Gettysburg College prior to termination or reduction of the limits
of coverage.
13) PERFORMANCE BOND: If requested by Gettysburg
College, Contractor shall furnish a performance and payment
bond covering the faithful performance of this Contract. Such
bond shall be in the form and amount and with a surety
satisfactory to Gettysburg College. The cost of such bond shall
be paid by Gettysburg College.
14) TAXES: Unless otherwise required by law, Contractor has
exclusive liability for all sales, use, excise and other taxes, charges,
or contributions with respect to or imposed on any material or
equipment supplied or Work performed by Contractor, including
such taxes or contributions imposed on the wages, salaries or
other remuneration paid to persons employed by Contractor or
its subcontractors in the performance of this Contract.
Contractor shall pay all such taxes, charges, or contributions
before delinquency or discount date and shall hold Gettysburg
College harmless from any liability and expense by reason of
Contractor's failure to pay such taxes, charges or contributions.
15) USE OF GETTYSBURG COLLEGE’S PREMISES: All
Work shall be performed in such a manner as to cause a
minimum of interference with Gettysburg College's operations
and the operations of other contractors on the premises.
Contractor shall take all necessary and proper precautions to
protect Gettysburg College's premises and all persons and
property thereon from damage or injury.
16) LIENS: Upon completion of the Work and as a condition
precedent to final payment, Contractor shall deliver to
Gettysburg College a full release of liens form as Gettysburg
College may require. Contractor shall not permit any lien,
including a tax lien, or charge to attach in the Work or the
premises upon which the Work is being performed. If any such
lien does so become attached, Contractor shall promptly procure
its release and hold Gettysburg College harmless from such
losses, costs, damages or expenses incidental thereto including
court costs and attorney's fees.
17) FORCE MAJEURE: If, because of force majeure, either
party hereto is unable to carry out any of its obligations under
this Contract, other than the obligations to pay money due
hereunder, and if such party promptly gives to the other party
hereto written notice of such force majeure, then the obligations
of the party giving such notice shall be suspended to the extent
made necessary by such force majeure and during its continuance,
provided that the party giving such notice shall use its best efforts
to remedy such force majeure insofar as possible with all
reasonable dispatch. The term "force majeure" as used herein
shall mean any causes beyond the control of the party affected
thereby, such as, but not limited to, acts of God, acts of public
enemy, insurrections, riots, strikes, lockouts, labor disputes, fires,
explosions, floods, breakdowns or damage to plants, equipment
or facilities, embargoes, orders or acts of civil or military
authority, or other causes of a similar nature. Upon the cessation
of the force majeure event, the party that had given original
notice shall again promptly give notice to the other party of such
cessation.
18) NONDISCLOSURE: It is recognized by the parties to this
Agreement that the performance of services under this
Agreement is likely to give or require access to confidential
information of Gettysburg College and necessitate contact with
others engaged in confidential work for Gettysburg College.
Contractor agrees that during the period of performance of
services pursuant to this Agreement, and for a period of five (5)
years thereafter, Contractor agrees to keep secret and treat
confidentially all confidential information of Gettysburg College,
including, but not limited to, all confidential information
pertaining to student records, student financial records, students’
family financial records, donor lists, fund raising activities and any
other confidential information compiled or maintained internally
by Gettysburg College concerning the operation of Gettysburg
College. Contractor shall use at least the same degree of care to
protect confidential information received hereunder as it does to
protect and safeguard its own confidential information of a like
nature, but in any event no less than a reasonable degree of care.
Upon termination of performance of services pursuant to this
Agreement, Contractor agrees to promptly return to Gettysburg
College any and all documents made or obtained by Contractor
or its employees in the course of performance of services
pertaining to or containing any of the confidential information
referred to above, and not to make any written record of such
information nor disclose such information to others nor to make
any use of such information.
19) OWNERSHIP: The elements of the Work subject to
copyright ownership and protection are and shall be deemed to
be works made for hire within the meaning of the U.S. Copyright
Act, and all rights, title and interest in and to the Work, including,
without limitation, copyright, are owned by Gettysburg College.
In addition, Contractor hereby sells assigns and transfers to
Gettysburg College all of its right, title and interest, if any, in and
to the Work, including, without limitation, copyright, free and
clear of any claims, rights, liens or encumbrances. Contractor
hereby covenants and agrees that it will execute any and all
documents and papers reasonably requested by College to
evidence the transfer of any rights in the Work to Gettysburg
College, including, but not limited to, documents and papers
relating the assignment of copyrights. Contractor acknowledges
College’s exclusive right, title and interest, including, without
limitation, copyrights, in and to the Work, and shall not in any
way, directly or indirectly, do or cause to be done any act or thing
contesting or in any way impairing or tending to impair any part
of said right, title and interest. Contractor shall not in any
