DATE: November 19, 2024
CONSENT
AGENDA ITEM: Approve Cooperative Agreement Purchase for the Well 2 Generator Equipment
SUBMITTED BY: Jack Griffin, City Engineer
REVIEWED BY: Nicole Miller, City Administrator
Sarah Sonsalla, City Attorney Marty Powers, Public Works Director
Chad Isakson, Assistant City Engineer
ISSUE BEFORE COUNCIL: Should the City Council approve the purchase of the Well 2 Generator
Equipment through Sourcewell’s Cooperative Purchasing Program?
BACKGROUND: On February 20, 2024 the City Council approved the preliminary findings and
recommendations to proceed with design phase engineering for an Anion Exchange (IX) Treatment facility
for Well 2 using paired 8‐ft diameter and 15‐ft tall steel pressure vessels. The MPCA Grant Agreement for
the full Project design and construction was approved on October 1, 2024.
The project is being implemented through an accelerated project delivery schedule, consisting of three
separate contracts; 1) Well 2 PFAS Removal Equipment and Media; 2) Well 2 Generator Equipment; and
3) Well 2 PFAS Water Treatment Plant.
PROPOSAL DETAILS/ANALYSIS: On October 15, 2024, the City Council approved the plans and
specifications for the Well 2 Generator Equipment and scheduled the bid date for November 7, 2024.
Following this approval, City staff brought up the option to utilize the Cooperative Purchase Program for
the generator acquisition to obtain better pricing, ensure that the City obtains the specified equipment, and
to accelerate delivery to the site. The City is seeking to obtain a Cummins 150 KW natural gas generator.
The alternative procurement method was reviewed by the City Attorney and the MPCA to ensure
compliance with state contracting and bidding requirements and the requirements of the MPCA Grant
Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT: The Total Project Costs, including the generator equipment, will be funded through a
MPCA Grant through the 3M 2018 Settlement Funds in the amount of $2,283,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is recommending that the City Council approve, as part of the consent
agenda, a motion to approve the purchase of the Well 2 Generator Equipment through the Sourcewell
Cooperative Purchasing Agreement in an amount not to exceed $60,000. If removed from the consent
agenda, the recommended motion for the action is as follows:
“Move to approve the purchase of the Well 2 Generator Equipment, in the not to exceed amount of
$60,000, through the Sourcewell Cooperative Purchasing Agreement.”

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SALE OF POWER GENERATION EQUIPMENT
These Terms and Conditions for Sale of Power Generation Equipment, together with the quote (“Quote”), sales order (“Sales Order”),
and/or credit application (“Credit Application”) on the front side or attached hereto, are hereinafter collectively referred to as this
“Agreement” and shall constitute the entire agreement between the customer identified in the Quote (“Customer”) and Cummins Inc.
(“Cummins”) and supersede any previous representation, statements, agreements or understanding (oral or written) between the
parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. Customer shall be deemed to have made an unqualified acceptance of
these Terms and Conditions and it shall become a binding agreement between the parties on the earliest of the following to occur: (i)
Cummins’ receipt of Customer’s purchase order or purchase order number; (ii) Customer’s signing or acknowledgment of this
Agreement; (iii) Cummins’ release of equipment to production pursuant to Customer’s oral or written instruction or direction; (iv)
Customer’s payment of any amounts due to Cummins; or (v) any other event constituting acceptance under applicable law. No prior
inconsistent course of dealing, course of performance, or usage of trade, if any, constitutes a waiver of, or serves to explain or interpret,
the Terms and Conditions set forth in this Agreement. Electronic transactions between Customer and Cummins will be solely governed
by the Terms and Conditions of this Agreement, and any terms and conditions on Customer’s website or other internet site will be null
and void and of no legal effect on Cummins. In the event Customer delivers, references, incorporates by reference, or produces any
purchase order or document, specifications, agreement (whether upstream or otherwise), or any other terms and conditions related
thereto, then such specifications, terms, document, or other agreement: (i) shall be null and void and of no legal effect on Cummins,
and (ii) this Agreement shall remain the governing terms of the transaction.
1. SCOPE. Cummins shall supply power generation equipment and any related parts, materials and/or services expressly identified in
this Agreement (collectively, “Equipment”). No additional services, parts or materials are included in this Agreement unless mutually
agreed upon by the parties in writing. A Sales Order for Equipment is accepted on a hold for release basis. The Sales Order will not be
released and scheduled for production until written approval to proceed is received from Customer. A Quote is limited to the plans and
specifications section specifically referenced in the Quote. No other sections shall apply. Additional requirements for administrative
items may require additional costs. The Quote does not include off unit wiring, off unit plumbing, offloading, rigging, installation,
exhaust insulation or fuel, unless otherwise stated and mutually agreed to in writing by the parties. Unless otherwise agreed by
Cummins in writing, this Quote is valid for a maximum period of thirty (30) days from the date appearing on the first page of this
Quote (“Quote Validation Period”). At the end of the Quote Validation Period, this Quote will automatically expire unless accepted by
Customer prior to the end of the Quote Validation Period. The foregoing notwithstanding, in no event shall this Quote Validation
Period be deemed or otherwise considered to be a firm offer period nor to establish an option contract, and Cummins hereby reserves
its right to revoke or amend this Quote at any time prior to Customer’s acceptance.
2. SHIPPING; DELIVERY; DELAYS. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, Equipment shall be delivered FOB origin,
freight prepaid to first destination. For consumer and mobile products, freight will be charged to Customer. Unless otherwise agreed to
in writing by the parties, packaging method, shipping documents and manner, route and carrier and delivery shall be as Cummins
deems appropriate. Cummins may deliver in installments. A reasonable storage fee, as determined in Cummins’ sole discretion, may be
assessed if delivery of the Equipment is delayed, deferred, or refused by Customer. In the event Customer fails to take any or all
shipments of Equipment ordered hereunder within thirty (30) days of the agreed upon delivery date, Cummins shall have the right, in
its sole discretion to either (i) charge a minimum storage fee in the amount of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month of the total
quoted amount; or (ii) consider the Equipment abandoned and, subject to local laws, may (a) make the Equipment available for auction
or sale to other customers or the public, or (b) otherwise use, destroy, or recycle the Equipment at Customer’s sole cost and expense.
The foregoing remedies shall be without prejudice to Cummins’ right to pursue other remedies available under the law, including
without limitation, recovery of costs and/or losses incurred due to the storage, auction, sale, destruction, recycling, or otherwise of the
Equipment. Offloading, handling, and placement of Equipment and crane services are the responsibility of Customer and not included
unless otherwise stated. All shipments are made within normal business hours, Monday through Friday. Any delivery, shipping,
installation, or performance dates indicated in this Agreement are estimated and not guaranteed. Further, delivery time is subject to
confirmation at time of order and will be in effect after engineering drawings have been approved for production. Cummins shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to meet estimated dates, but shall not be liable to customer or any third party for any delay in
delivery, shipping, installation, or performance, however occasioned, including any delays in performance that result directly or
indirectly from acts of Customer or any unforeseen event, circumstance, or condition beyond Cummins’ reasonable control including,
but not limited to, acts of God, actions by any government authority, civil strife, fires, floods, windstorms, explosions, riots, natural
disasters, embargos, wars, strikes or other labor disturbances, civil commotion, terrorism, sabotage, late delivery by Cummins'
suppliers, fuel or other energy shortages, or an inability to obtain necessary labor, materials, supplies, equipment or manufacturing
facilities. AS A RESULT OF COVID-19 RELATED EFFECTS OR INDUSTRY SUPPLY CHAIN DISRUPTIONS, TEMPORARY DELAYS IN
DELIVERY, LABOR OR SERVICES FROM CUMMINS AND ITS SUB-SUPPLIERS OR SUBCONTRACTORS MAY OCCUR. AMONG OTHER
FACTORS, CUMMINS’ DELIVERY OBLIGATIONS ARE SUBJECT TO CORRECT AND PUNCTUAL SUPPLY FROM OUR SUB-SUPPLIERS OR
SUBCONTRACTORS, AND CUMMINS RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE PARTIAL DELIVERIES OR MODIFY ITS LABOR OR SERVICE.
WHILE CUMMINS SHALL MAKE COMMERCIALLY REASONABLE EFFORTS TO MEET THE DELIVERY, SERVICE OR COMPLETION
Project: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell)
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Page 5 of 9
OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH HEREIN, SUCH DATES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE. IN THE EVENT DELIVERY, SHIPPING, INSTALLATION,
OR PERFORMANCE IS DELAYED, HOWEVER OCCASSIONED, DUE TO EVENTS BEYOND CUMMINS’ REASONABLE CONTROL, THEN
THE DATE OF DELIVERY, SHIPPING, INSTALLATION, OR PERFORMANCE FOR THE EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES SHALL BE EQUITABLY
EXTENDED FOR A PERIOD EQUAL TO THE TIME LOST, PLUS REASONABLE RAMP-UP.
3. PAYMENT TERMS; CREDIT; RETAINAGE. Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing and subject to credit approval by
Cummins, payments are due thirty (30) days from the date of the invoice. If Customer does not have approved credit with Cummins, as
solely determined by Cummins, payments are due in advance or at the time of supply of the Equipment. If payment is not received
when due, in addition to any rights Cummins may have at law, Cummins may charge Customer eighteen percent (18%) interest
annually on late payments, or the maximum amount allowed by law. Customer agrees to pay Cummins’ costs and expenses (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) related to Cummins’ enforcement and collection of unpaid invoices, or any other enforcement of this
Agreement by Cummins. Retainage is not acceptable nor binding, unless required by statute or accepted and confirmed in writing by
Cummins prior to shipment. If Customer fails to make any payments to Cummins when due and payable, and such failure continues
for more than sixty (60) days from the date of the invoice, or less if required by applicable law, then Cummins may, at Cummins’ sole
discretion and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies, either (i) terminate this Agreement; or (ii) postpone delivery of any
undelivered Equipment in Cummins’ possession and/or suspend its services until payment for unpaid invoices is received.
4. TAXES; EXEMPTIONS. Unless otherwise stated, the Quote excludes all applicable local, state and federal sales and/or use taxes,
permits and licensing. Customer must provide a valid resale or exemption certificate prior to shipment of Equipment or applicable
taxes will be added to the invoice.
5. TITLE; RISK OF LOSS. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, title and risk of loss for the Equipment shall pass to
Customer upon delivery of the Equipment by Cummins to freight carrier or to Customer at pickup at Cummins’ facility.
6. INSPECTION AND ACCEPTANCE. Customer shall inspect the Equipment upon delivery, before offloading, for damage, defects, and
shortage. Any and all claims which could have been discovered by such inspection shall be deemed absolutely and unconditionally
waived unless noted by Customer on the bill of lading. Where Equipment is alleged to be non-conforming or defective, written notice
of defect must be given to Cummins within three (3) days from date of delivery after which time Equipment shall be deemed accepted.
Cummins shall have a commercially reasonable period of time in which to correct such non-conformity or defect. If non-conformity or
defect is not eliminated to Customer’s reasonable satisfaction, Customer may reject the Equipment (but shall protect the Equipment
until returned to Cummins) or allow Cummins another opportunity to undertake corrective action. In the event startup of the
Equipment is included in the services, acceptance shall be deemed to have occurred upon successful startup.
7. LIEN; SECURITY AGREEMENT. Customer agrees that Cummins retains all statutory lien rights. To secure payment, Customer
grants Cummins a Purchase Money Security Interest in the Equipment. If any portion of the balance is due to be paid following
delivery, Customer agrees to execute and deliver such security agreement, financing statements, deed of trust and such other
documents as Cummins may request from time to time in order to permit Cummins to obtain and maintain a perfected security
interest in the Equipment; or in the alternative, Customer grants Cummins a power of attorney to execute and file all financing
statements and other documents needed to perfect this security interest. Cummins may record this Agreement, bearing Customer's
signature, or copy of this Agreement in lieu of a UCC-1, provided that it shall not constitute an admission by Cummins of the
applicability or non-applicability of the UCC nor shall the failure to file this form or a UCC-1 in any way affect, alter, or invalidate any
term, provision, obligation or liability under this Agreement. The security interest shall be superseded if Customer and Cummins enter
into a separate security agreement for the Equipment. Prior to full payment of the balance due, Equipment will be kept at Customer’s
location noted in this Agreement, will not be moved without prior notice to Cummins, and is subject to inspection by Cummins at all
reasonable times.
05.01.2023
8. CANCELLATION; CHARGES. Orders placed with and accepted by Cummins may not be cancelled except with Cummins’ prior
written consent. If Customer seeks to cancel all or a portion of an order placed pursuant to this Agreement, and Cummins accepts such
cancellation in whole or in part, Customer shall be assessed cancellation charges as follows: (i) 10% of total order price if cancellation
is received in Cummins’ office after Cummins has provided submittals and prior to releasing equipment to be manufactured; (ii) 25%
of total order price if cancellation is received in Cummins’ office after receipt of submittal release to order, receipt of a purchase order
for a generator already on order with the factory, or is asked to make any hardware changes to the equipment already on order with the
factory; (iii) 50% of total order price if cancellation is received in Cummins’ office sixty (60) or fewer days before the scheduled
shipping date on the order; or (iv) 100% of total order price if cancellation is received in Cummins’ office after the equipment has
shipped from the manufacturing plant.
9. TERMINATION. Cummins may, at any time, terminate this Agreement for convenience upon sixty (60) days’ written notice to
Customer. If the Customer defaults by (i) breaching any term of this Agreement, (ii) becoming insolvent or declared bankrupt, or (iii)
making an assignment for the benefit of creditors, Cummins may, upon written notice to Customer, immediately terminate this
Agreement. Upon such termination for default, Cummins shall immediately cease any further performance under this Agreement,
without further obligation or liability to Customer, and Customer shall pay Cummins for any Equipment or services supplied under
Project: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell)
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Page 6 of 9
this Agreement, in accordance with the payment terms detailed in Section 3. If a notice of termination for default has been issued and
is later determined, for any reason, that the Customer was not in default, the rights and obligations of the parties shall treat the
termination as a termination for convenience.
10. MANUALS. Unless otherwise stated, electronic submittals and electronic operation and maintenance manuals will be provided,
and print copies may be available upon Customer’s request at an additional cost.
11. TRAINING; START UP SERVICES; INSTALLATION. Startup services, load bank testing, and owner training are not provided
unless otherwise stated. Site startup will be subject to the account being current and will be performed during regular Cummins
business hours, Monday to Friday. Additional charges may be added for work requested to be done outside standard business hours, on
weekends, or holidays. One visit is allowed unless specified otherwise in the Quote. A minimum of two-week prior notice is required to
schedule site startups and will be subject to prior commitments and equipment and travel availability. A signed site check sheet
confirming readiness will be required, and Cummins personnel may perform an installation audit prior to the startup being completed.
Any issues identified by the installation audit shall be corrected at the Customer's expense prior to the start-up. Portable load banks
for site test (if offered in the Quote) are equipped with only 100 feet of cable. Additional lengths may be arranged at an extra cost.
Cummins is not responsible for any labor or materials charged by others associated with start-up and installation of Equipment, unless
previously agreed upon in writing. Supply of fuel for start-up and/or testing, fill-up of tank after start up, or change of oil is not
included unless specified in the Quote. All installation/execution work at the site including, but not limited to: civil, mechanical,
electrical, supply of wall thimbles, exhaust extension pipe, elbows, hangers, expansion joints, insulation and cladding materials,
fuel/oil/cooling system piping, air ducts, and louvers/dampers is not included unless specified in the Quote. When an enclosure or sub-
base fuel tank (or both) are supplied, the openings provided for power cable and fuel piping entries, commonly referred to as “stub-
ups”, must be sealed at the site by others before commissioning. All applications, inspections and/or approvals by authorities are to be
arranged by Customer.
12. MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY. Equipment purchased hereunder is accompanied by an express written manufacturer’s
warranty (“Warranty”) and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, is the only warranty offered on the Equipment. A copy of
the Warranty is available upon request. While this Agreement and the Warranty are intended to be read and applied in conjunction,
where this Agreement and the Warranty conflict, the terms of the Warranty shall prevail.
13. WARRANTY PROCEDURE. Prior to the expiration of the Warranty, Customer must give notice of a warrantable failure to
Cummins and deliver the defective Equipment to a Cummins location or other location authorized and designated by Cummins to
make the repairs during regular business hours. Cummins shall not be liable for towing charges, maintenance items such as oil filters,
belts, hoses, etc., communication expenses, meals, lodging, and incidental expenses incurred by Customer or employees of Customer,
"downtime" expenses, overtime expenses, cargo damages and any business costs and losses of revenue resulting from a warrantable
failure.

OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, ENDORSEMENTS, AND CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY STATUTORY OR COMMON LAW IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND
CONDITIONS OF FITNESS FOR A PURPOSE OR MERCHANTABILITY.
The limited warranty does not cover Equipment failures resulting from: (a) inappropriate use relative to designated power rating; (b)
inappropriate use relative to application guidelines; (c) inappropriate use of an EPA-SE application generator set relative to EPA’s

maintenance; improper storage, starting, warm-up, running, or shutdown practices, or for progressive damage resulting from a
defective shutdown or warning device; or (o) damage to parts, fixtures, housings, attachments and accessory items that are not part of
the generating set.
15. INDEMNITY. Customer shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Cummins from and against any and all claims, actions, costs,
expenses, damages and liabilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees, brought against or incurred by Cummins related to or arising
out of this Agreement or the Equipment supplied under this Agreement (collectively, the “Claims”), where such Claims were caused or
contributed to by, in whole or in part, the acts, omissions, fault or negligence of the Customer. Customer shall present any Claims
covered by this indemnity to its insurance carrier unless Cummins directs that the defense will be handled by Cummins' legal counsel
at Customer’s expense.

16. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER TERM OF THIS AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL CUMMINS, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS,
EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY, WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR
UNDER ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, STRICT LIABILITY OR NEGLIGENCE), FOR ANY
INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, LIQUIDATED, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING
WITHOUT LIMITATION DOWNTIME, LOSS OF PROFIT OR REVENUE, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF OPPORTUNITY, DAMAGE TO
GOODWILL, ENHANCED DAMAGES, MONETARY REQUESTS RELATING TO RECALL EXPENSES AND REPAIRS TO PROPERTY,
AND/OR DAMAG ES CAUSED BY DELAY), OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO OR ARISING FROM CUMMINS’ SUPPLY OF
EQUIPMENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OR PERFORMANCE OF EQUIPMENT SUPPLIED UNDER THIS
AGREEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL CUMMINS’ LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER OR ANY THIRD PARTY CLAIMING DIRECTLY
THROUGH CUSTOMER OR ON CUSTOMER’S BEHALF UNDER THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE TOTAL COST OF EQUIPMENT
SUPPLIED BY CUMMINS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT,
CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES CUSTOMER’S SOLE REMEDY AGAINST CUMMINS FOR ANY LOSS SHALL BE THE REMEDY
PROVIDED HEREIN.
17. DEFAULT; REMEDIES. Customer shall be in breach and default if: (a) any of the payments or amounts due under this Agreement
are not paid; (b) Customer fails to comply, perform, or makes any misrepresentation relating to any of the Customer's obligations or
covenants under this Agreement; or (c) prior to full payment of the balance due, Customer ceases to do business, becomes insolvent,
makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, appoints a receiver, commences an action for dissolution or liquidation, or
becomes subject to bankruptcy proceedings, or the Equipment is attached, levied upon, seized under legal process, is subjected to a
lien or encumbrance, or transferred by operation of law or otherwise to anyone other than Cummins. Upon the occurrence of any event
of Customer's default, Cummins, at its sole option and without notice, shall have the right to exercise concurrently or separately any
one or all of the following remedies, which shall be cumulative and not alternative: (a) to declare all sums due, and to become due,
under this Agreement immediately due and payable; (b) to commence legal proceedings, including collection actions and specific
performance proceedings, to enforce performance by Customer of any and all provisions of this Agreement, and to be awarded
damages or injunctive relief for the Customer's breach; (c) to require the Customer to deliver the Equipment to Cummins' branch
specified on the face of this Agreement; (d) to exercise one or more of the rights and remedies available to a secured party under
applicable law; and (e) to enter, without notice or liability or legal process, onto any premises where the Equipment may be located,
using force permitted by law, and there to disconnect, remove and repossess the Equipment, the Customer having waived further right
to possession after default. A waiver of any event of default by Cummins shall not be a waiver as to any other or subsequent default.
18. CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIONS; RELIANCE. Customer is responsible for obtaining, at its cost, permits, import licenses, and
other consents in relation to the Equipment, and if requested by Cummins, Customer shall make these permits, licenses, and consents
available to Cummins prior to shipment. Customer represents that it is familiar with the Equipment and understands operating
instructions and agrees to perform routine maintenance services. Until the balance is paid in full, Customer shall care for the
Equipment properly, maintain it in good operating condition, repair and appearance; and Customer shall use it safely and within its
rated capacity and only for purpose it was designed. Even if Customer’s purchase of Equipment from Cummins under this Agreement is
based, in whole or in part, on specifications, technical information, drawings, or written or verbal advice of any type from third parties,
Customer has sole responsibility for the accuracy, correctness and completeness of such specifications, technical information,
drawings, or advice. Cummins make no warranties or representations respecting the accuracy, correctness and completeness of any
specifications, technical information, drawings, advice or other information provided by Cummins. Cummins makes no warranties or
representations respecting the suitability, fitness for intended use, compatibility, integration or installation of any Equipment supplied
under this Agreement. Customer has sole responsibility for intended use, for installation and design and performance where it is part
of a power, propulsion, or other system. Limitation of warranties and remedies and all disclaimers apply to all such technical
information, drawings, or advice. Customer acknowledges and agrees by accepting delivery of the Equipment that the Equipment
purchased is of the size, design, capacity and manufacture selected by the Customer, and that Customer has relied solely on its own
judgment in selecting the Equipment.
19. CONFIDENTIALITY. Each party shall keep confidential any information received from the other that is not generally known to the
public and at the time of disclosure, would reasonably be understood by the receiving party to be proprietary or confidential, whether
disclosed in oral, written, visual, electronic, or other form, and which the receiving party (or agents) learns in connection with this
Agreement including, but not limited to: (a) business plans, strategies, sales, projects and analyses; (b) financial information, pricing,
and fee structures; (c) business processes, methods, and models; (d) employee and supplier information; (e) specifications; and (f) the
terms and conditions of this Agreement. Each party shall take necessary steps to ensure compliance with this provision by its
employees and agents.
20. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION. This Agreement and all matters arising hereunder shall be governed by, interpreted, and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Indiana without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision. The
parties agree that the federal and state courts of the State of Indiana shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim
Project: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell)
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Quotation: City of Lake Elmo (Sourcewell) Q-344881
Page 8 of 9
arising in connection with this Agreement or any related matter, and hereby waive any right to claim such forum would be
inappropriate, including concepts of forum non conveniens.
21. INSURANCE. Upon Customer’s request, Cummins will provide to Customer a Certificate of Insurance evidencing Cummins’
relevant insurance coverage.
22. ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement shall be binding on the parties and their successors and assigns. Customer shall not assign this
Agreement without the prior written consent of Cummins.
23. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Any intellectual property rights created by either party, whether independently or jointly, in the
course of the performance of this Agreement or otherwise related to Cummins pre-existing intellectual property or subject matter
related thereto, shall be Cummins’ property. Customer agrees to assign, and does hereby assign, all right, title, and interest to such
intellectual property to Cummins. Any Cummins pre-existing intellectual property shall remain Cummins’ property. Nothing in this
Agreement shall be deemed to have given Customer a license or any other rights to use any of the intellectual property rights of
Cummins.
24. PRICING. To the extent allowed by law, actual prices invoiced to Customer may vary from the price quoted at the time of order
placement, as the same will be adjusted for prices prevailing on the date of shipment due to economic and market conditions at the
time of shipment. Subject to local laws, Cummins reserves the right to adjust pricing on goods and services due to input and labor cost
changes and/or other unforeseen circumstances beyond Cummins’ control.
25. MISCELLANEOUS. Cummins shall be an independent contractor under this Agreement. All notices under this Agreement shall be
in writing and be delivered personally, mailed via first class certified or registered mail, or sent by a nationally recognized express
courier service to the addresses set forth in this Agreement. No amendment of this Agreement shall be valid unless it is writing and
signed by an authorized representative of the parties hereto. Failure of either party to require performance by the other party of any
provision hereof shall in no way affect the right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by a party of a
breach of any of the provisions hereof constitute a waiver of any succeeding breach. Any provision of this Agreement that is invalid or
unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms hereof. These terms are exclusive and constitute the
entire agreement. Customer acknowledges that the provisions were freely negotiated and bargained for, and Customer has agreed to
purchase of the Equipment pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. Acceptance of this Agreement is expressly conditioned on
Customer's assent to all such Terms and Conditions. Neither party has relied on any statement, representation, agreement,
understanding, or promise made by the other except as expressly set out in this Agreement. In the event Cummins incurs additional
charges hereunder due to the acts or omissions of Customer, the additional charges will be passed on to the Customer, as applicable.
Headings or other subdivisions of this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference and shall not limit or affect the legal
construction of any provision hereof. The Parties’ rights, remedies, and obligations under this Agreement which by their nature are
intended to continue beyond the termination or cancellation of this Agreement, including but not limited to the Section 16. Limitation
of Liability provision contained herein, shall survive the expiration, termination, or cancellation of this Agreement.
26. COMPLIANCE. Customer shall comply with all laws applicable to its activities under this Agreement, including, without
limitation, any and all applicable federal, state, and local anti-bribery, environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations then in
effect. Customer acknowledges that the Equipment, and any related technology that are sold or otherwise provided hereunder may be
subject to export and other trade controls restricting the sale, export, re-export and/or transfer, directly or indirectly, of such
Equipment or technology to certain countries or parties, including, but not limited to, licensing requirements under applicable laws
and regulations of the United States, the United Kingdom and other jurisdictions. It is the intention of Cummins to comply with these
laws, rules, and regulations. Any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, Customer shall comply with all
such applicable all laws relating to the cross-border movement of goods or technology, and all related orders in effect from time to
time, and equivalent measures. Customer shall act as the importer of record with respect to the Equipment and shall not resell, export,
re-export, distribute, transfer, or dispose of the Equipment or related technology, directly or indirectly, without first obtaining all
necessary written permits, consents, and authorizations and completing such formalities as may be required under such laws, rules,
and regulations. In addition, Cummins has in place policies not to distribute its products for use in certain countries based on
applicable laws and regulations including but not limited to UN, U.S., UK, and European Union regulations. Customer undertakes to
perform its obligations under this Agreement with due regard to these policies. Strict compliance with this provision and all laws of the
territory pertaining to the importation, distribution, sales, promotion and marketing of the Equipment is a material consideration for
Cummins entering into this Agreement with Customer and continuing this Agreement for its term. Customer represents and warrants
that it has not and shall not, directly or through any intermediary, pay, give, promise to give or offer to give anything of value to a
government official or representative, a political party official, a candidate for political office, an officer or employee of a public
international organization or any other person, individual or entity at the suggestion, request or direction or for the benefit of any of
the above-described persons and entities for the purposes of inducing such person to use his influence to assist Cummins in obtaining
or retaining business or to benefit Cummins or any other person in any way, and will not otherwise breach any applicable laws relating
to anti-bribery. Any failure by Customer to comply with these provisions will constitute a default giving Cummins the right to
immediate termination of this Agreement and/or the right to elect not to recognize the warranties associated with the Equipment.
