Thanks, Patty From: Esparza, Patty Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2007 11:35 AM To: Copeland, Karen Cc: Lugar, Robin Subject: Contract Question Importance: High << File: Norman Traub Contract.pdf >> Hi Karen - In reviewing the professional service contracts going to Council, Robin noticed Mike Vigliotta's contract with Norman A. Traub Associates (attached) has no dollar amount written on it. $45,000 is the amount specified on your cover sheet and the Purchasing Certificate, but we do not see that amount written anywhere in the body of the contract. The "Compensation" section of the agreement refers to rates specified in Exhibit "B" which show the hourly rates, but no dollar cap is mentioned. It appears to us that either the "Compensation" section or Exhibit "B" should be amended to reflect the $45,000 amount. Will you please advise? Thanks for your help.

Hourly Rate CONSULTANT'S fees for such services shall be based upon the following hourly rate and cost schedule: B. Travel • $130.00 per hour plus expenses; • $250 per hour (4-hour minimum) plus expenses for post investigation appearances at hearings, trials, depositions, arbitrations, legislative hearings, or personnel appeal boards. This provision shall apply if appearances are required by City or other parties to the action; • Reimbursement for transcription of interviews; • Reimbursement for City Business License (in the event a business license is required). Charges for time during travel are not reimbursable 2. Automobile expenses are limited to the IRS standard business mileage rate of $0.48.5. C. Billing All billing shall be done monthly in one -tenth -hour (0.10) increments and matched to an appropriate breakdown of the time that was taken to perform that work and who performed it. Minimum billing charges are unacceptable. CONSULTANT shall only charge for actual time spent. For example, minimum of 0.2 hours for phone calls or 0.4 hours for letters is unreasonable unless that is an accurate measure of time spent. 2. Each month's bill should include a total to date. That total should provide, at a glance, the total fees and costs incurred to date for the case or matter. Telephone, cellular phone and postage charges are billable at actual cost. A copy of all service bills/costs should accompany the billing for each single item that exceeds Seventy - Five Dollars ($75.00). The fee for the sending or receiving of facsimiles shall not exceed Twenty-five Cents ($0.25) per page. CITY will not pay a fee or charge for telephone calls or facsimiles to CITY.

This includes per page or hourly charges. 07-836/7302 I -B 6. The CITY expects that all attorneys will have a library, be it in book or electronic form. Consequently, the CITY will not pay for electronic legal research, such as LexisNexis or Westlaw. 7. CITY will not pay for billing or discussion of bills. If CITY has questions about billing or needs additional information on bills, that is not a chargeable event; CONSULTANT should respond without charging CITY for the time required. 8. CITY appreciates when CONSULTANT has researched an issue previously and uses that research on the present case. CITY has retained CONSULTANT because of its past experience. CONSULTANT shall not charge CITY for work it has done and billed another client for in the past. 9. Delivery of work product: A copy of every memorandum, letter, report, calculation and other documentation prepared by CONSULTANT shall be submitted to CITY to demonstrate progress toward completion of tasks. In the event CITY rejects or has comments on any such product, CITY shall identify specific requirements for satisfactory completion. 10. CONSULTANT shall submit to CITY an invoice for each monthly payment due. Such invoice shall: A) Reference this Agreement; B) Describe the services performed; C) Show the total amount of the payment due; D) Include a certification by a principal member of CONSULTANT's firm that the work has been performed in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; and E) For all payments include an estimate of the percentage of work completed. Upon submission of any such invoice, if CITY is satisfied that CONSULTANT is making satisfactory progress toward completion of tasks in accordance with this Agreement, CITY shall approve the invoice, in which event payment shall be made within thirty (30) days of receipt of the invoice by CITY. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. If CITY does not approve an invoice, CITY shall notify CONSULTANT in writing of the reasons for non -approval and the schedule of performance set forth in Exhibit "A" may at the option of CITY be suspended until the parties agree that past performance by CONSULTANT is in, or has been brought into compliance, or until this Agreement has expired or is terminated as provided herein. 11. Any billings for extra work or additional services authorized in advance and in writing by CITY shall be invoiced separately to CITY. Such invoice shall contain all of the information required above, and in addition shall list the hours expended and hourly rate charged for such time. Such invoices shall be approved by CITY if the work performed is in accordance with the extra work or additional services requested, and if CITY is satisfied that the statement of hours worked and costs incurred is accurate. Such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Any dispute between the parties concerning payment of such an invoice shall be treated as separate and apart from the ongoing performance of the remainder of this Agreement. 07-836/7302 2-B Feb 20 2007 11:22RM Blaylock and Rssociates 9492181210 P.2 S OP ID �� trwMroDrYYYvy �4coRD CERTIFICATE OF LIABILITY INSURANCE BLOPID I d 02 zo 07 PRODUCER THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED AS A MATTER OF INFORMATION Yergey Insurance Agency, Inc.
