IN CONSIDERATION OF THE MUTUAL PROMISES AND COVENANTS CONTAINED IN THIS
AGREEMENT AND THE MUTUAL DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, THE
PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:
A. Definition of Confidential Information and Exclusions
(1) "Confidential Information" means nonpublic information that a Party to this Agreement
("Disclosing Party") designates as being confidential to the Party that receives such information
("Receiving Party") or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure ought to be treated
as confidential by the Receiving Party. "Confidential Information" includes, without limitation,
information in tangible or intangible form relating to and/or including released or unreleased
Disclosing Party software or hardware products, the marketing or promotion of any Disclosing
Party product, Disclosing Party's business policies or practices, and information received from
others that Disclosing Party is obligated to treat as confidential. Except as otherwise indicated in
this Agreement, the term "Disclosing Party" also includes all Affiliates of the Disclosing Party and,
except as otherwise indicated, the term "Receiving Party" also includes all Affiliates of the
Receiving Party. An "Affiliate" means any person, partnership, joint venture, corporation or other
form of enterprise, domestic or foreign, including but not limited to subsidiaries, that directly or
indirectly, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with a party. Prior to the time
that any Confidential Information is shared with an Affiliate who has not signed this Agreement,
the Receiving Party that executed this Agreement below (the "Undersigned Receiving Party")
shall have entered into an appropriate written agreement with that Affiliate sufficient to enable the
Disclosing Party and/or the Undersigned Receiving Party to enforce all of the provisions of this
Agreement against such Affiliate.
(2) Confidential Information shall not include any information, however designated, that:
(a) is or subsequently becomes publicly available without Receiving Party's breach of any
obligation owed Disclosing Party; (b) became known to Receiving Party prior to Disclosing Party's
disclosure of such information to Receiving Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
(c) became known to Receiving Party from a source other than Disclosing Party other than by the
breach of an obligation of confidentiality owed to Disclosing Party; or (d) is independently
developed by Receiving Party.
B. Obligations Regarding Confidential Information
(1) Receiving Party shall:

third parties for five (5) years following the date that Disclosing Party first discloses such
Confidential Information to Receiving Party, except as expressly provided in Sections 13(2) and
B(3) of this Agreement;
(b) Take reasonable security precautions, at least as great as the precautions it takes
to protect its own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care, to keep confidential
the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party;
Form last revised 19 Aug 2004 Page 1 at Exhibit C
(c) Refrain from disclosing, reproducing, summarizing and/or distributing
Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except in pursuance of Receiving Party's
business relationship with Disclosing Party, and only as otherwise provided hereunder; and
(d) Refrain from reverse engineering, decompiling or disassembling any software
code and/or pre-release hardware devices disclosed by Disclosing Party to Receiving Party under
the terms of this Agreement, except as expressly permitted by applicable law.
(2) Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of Disclosing Party in
accordance with a judicial or other governmental order, provided that Receiving Party either (a)
gives the undersigned Disclosing Party reasonable notice prior to such disclosure to allow
Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order or equivalent, or (b) obtains
written assurance from the applicable judicial or governmental entity that it will afford the
Confidential Information the highest level of protection afforded under applicable law or
regulation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall not disclose any computer
source code that contains Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in accordance with a
judicial or other governmental order unless it complies with the requirement set forth in sub-
section (a) of this Section B(2).
(3) The undersigned Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information only to

Receiving Party will have executed or shall execute appropriate written agreements with its
employees and consultants sufficient to enable Receiving Party to enforce all the provisions of
this Agreement.
(4) Receiving Party shall notify the undersigned Disclosing Party immediately upon
discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information or any other breach of

Confidential Information and prevent its further unauthorized use or disclosure.
(5) Receiving Party shall, at Disclosing Party's request, return all originals, copies,
reproductions and summaries of Confidential Information and all other tangible materials and
devices provided to the Receiving Party as Confidential Information, or at Disclosing Party's
option, certify destruction of the same.
C. Remedies
The parties acknowledge that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for
unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information and that Disclosing Party shall be entitled,
without waiving any other rights or remedies, to such injunctive or equitable relief as may be
deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction.
D. Other Terms & Conditions
(1) All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of Disclosing Party. By
disclosing Confidential Information to Receiving Party, Disclosing Party does not grant any
express or implied right to Receiving Party to or under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, or

hardware to the Receiving Party as Confidential Information under the terms of this Agreement,
such computer software and/or hardware may only be used by the Receiving Party for evaluation
and providing Feedback (as defined in Section 5 of this Agreement) to the Disclosing Party.
Unless otherwise agreed by the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party, all such computer
software and/or hardware is provided "AS IS" without warranty of any kind, and Receiving Party

arising from or relating to Receiving Party's use of or inability to use such software and/or
hardware.
(3) The parties agree to comply with all applicable international and national laws that
apply to (a) any Confidential Information, or (b) any product (or any part thereof), process or
service that is the direct product of the Confidential Information, including the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations, as well as end -user, end -use and destination restrictions issued by
U.S. and other governments.
(4) The terms of confidentiality under this Agreement shall not be construed to limit either
the Disclosing Party or the Receiving Party's right to independently develop or acquire products
without use of the other party's Confidential Information. Further, the Receiving Party shall be
free to use for any purpose the residuals resulting from access to or work with the Confidential
Information of the Disclosing Party, provided that the Receiving Party shall not disclose the
Confidential Information except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
The term "residuals" means information in intangible form, which is retained in memory by
persons who have had access to the Confidential Information, including ideas, concepts, know-
how or techniques contained therein. The Receiving Party shall not have any obligation to limit or
restrict the assignment of such persons or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the use of
residuals. However, this sub -paragraph shall not be deemed to grant to the Receiving Party a
license under the Disclosing Party's copyrights or patents.
(5) This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof. It shall not be modified except by a written agreement dated
subsequent to the date of this Agreement and signed by both parties. None of the provisions of
this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or acquiescence on the part of
Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party, their agents, or employees, but only by an instrument in
writing signed by an authorized employee of Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party. No waiver
of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the
same provision on another occasion.
(6) If either Disclosing Party or the Receiving Party employs attorneys to enforce any
rights arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover
reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. This Agreement shall be construed and controlled by the
laws of the State of Washington, and the parties further consent to exclusive jurisdiction and

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS AND CERTIFICATE
This Exhibit "D" is a continuation of that certain MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT between the
Yakima County Technology Services ("Host"), and City of Edmonds ("Entity"), and specifies the
insurance requirements of Entity under the Agreement.
INSURANCE.
(a) General. Prior to the commencement of this Agreement, and throughout the
entire Term of this Agreement, Entity shall procure and maintain the insurance described below.
Such insurance shall be in a form and with insurers acceptable to Host and shall comply with the
following minimum requirements.
(b) Commercial General Liabilit . Entity shall obtain and maintain a commercial
general liability insurance policy with reputable insurers reasonably acceptable to Host with policy
limits of not less than $2,000,000 each occurrence for bodily injury and $2,000,000 each
occurrence for damage to property, or, alternatively, $2,000,000 combined single limit each
occurrence for bodily injury and property damage combined. The policy shall be the "occurrence"
form and shall include coverage for premises and operations, contractual liability (including
insurable contractual liability assumed in this Agreement), broad form property damage, and
products and completed operations. The policy shall name Host as an additional insured to the
extent of the contractual liability assumed by Entity in this Agreement, and shall contain a
severability of interests provision in favor of the additional insureds.
(c) Automobile Liability.. If licensed vehicles will be used by Entity during the Term
of this Agreement, and at all times when such vehicles are operated on the premises of, or on
behalf of, Host, Entity shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering all owned, rented, and
non -owned vehicles with policy limits of not less than $1,000,000 combined single limit for bodily
injury and property damage combined, or, if limits are obtained on a per person and per accident
basis, not less than $1,000,000 per person and per accident for bodily injury, and $500,000 per
accident for property damage.
(d) Workers' Compensation. Entity shall at all times comply fully with all applicable
workers' compensation, occupational disease, and occupational health and safety laws, statutes,
and regulations, if any. Such workers' compensation and occupational disease requirements
shall include coverage for all employees of Entity suffering bodily injury (including death) by
accident or disease, which arises out of or in connection with the performance of this Agreement
by Entity. Except to the extent prohibited by law, Entity's program(s) for compliance with workers'
compensation and occupational disease laws, statutes, and regulations shall provide for a full
waiver of rights of subrogation against Host, its subsidiaries, officers, and employees.
If Entity, or any subcontractor retained by Entity, fails to effect and maintain a
program of compliance with applicable workers' compensation and occupational disease laws,
statutes, and regulations, and Host incurs liability or fines or is required by law to provide benefits
to such employees or to obtain coverage for such employees, Entity shall indemnify Host for such
fines, payment of benefits to Entity's or subcontractors' employees or their heirs or legal
representatives, and/or the cost of effecting coverage on behalf of such employees. Any amount
owed to Host by Entity pursuant to this indemnity may be deducted from any payments owed by
Host to Entity for performance of the Agreement.
(e) Employers Liability. Entity, in addition to complying with the provisions of
Section (d) above, shall maintain coverage for employers' liability with a policy limit of not less
than $1,000,000 per accident. In jurisdictions where commercial insurance of workers'
compensation is not permitted, this requirement may be fulfilled through addition of an
Page 1 at Exhibit D
"Employers Stop Gap Liability" endorsement to the comprehensive general liability policy required
in Section (b) above.
(f) Professional Liability/Errors_&_Omissions Liability. Entity shall maintain
policy limits of not less than $2,000,000 each claim. Such insurance shall include coverage for
infringement of proprietary rights of any third party, including without limitation copyright, trade
secret and trademark infringement as related to Entity's performance under this Agreement.
Throughout the Term of this Agreement, the Professional Liability/Errors & Omissions Liability
insurance's retroactive coverage date will be no later than the Effective Date of this Agreement.
Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement, Entity will either maintain active policy
coverage, or an extended reporting period, providing coverage for claims first made and reported
to the insurance Entity within two years after the end of the Agreement.
(g) General Requirements Applicable to Above Coverages. The following
general requirements shall be applicable to all coverages referenced anywhere in this Section:
(1) The above -referenced insurance policies shall be primary and not
contributory to any insurance or program of self-insurance maintained by Host.
(2) Any deductible or retention in excess of $100,000 per occurrence or
accident under any of the above -required coverages shall be subject to the approval of Host prior
to the commencement of the Agreement.
(3) All deductibles and premiums associated with the above coverages shall
be the responsibility of the Entity.
(4) If, in the opinion of Host, the amount of liability coverage is not adequate
by reason of inflationary pressures or experience or the nature and content of Entity's activities,
Entity shall increase the amount of insurance coverage as reasonably required by Host.
(5) At the request of Host, Entity shall provide to Host, or make available for
Host's review, copies of the insurance policies required herein. Entity reserves the right to delete
certain proprietary information not directly related to the provisions of insurance coverage
required under this Agreement.
(6) The above referenced insurance limits shall not in any way limit the
liability of Entity or the liability of any Entity subcontractor during their performance under this
Agreement. Where any subcontractor is retained by Entity as may be authorized by Host in
writing, Entity shall either require such subcontractor to assume the same insurance obligations
on behalf of Host as are required of Entity herein, or extend its insurance to cover any
subcontractor retained by Entity.
(h) Certificates of Insurance. Prior to the inception of this Agreement, Entity shall
provide to Host certificates of insurance evidencing full compliance with the insurance
requirements contained herein. Such certificates shall be kept current throughout the entire
period of the Agreement, and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days advance notice to Host if
the coverage is to be canceled or materially altered so as not to comply with the foregoing
requirements. Where such insurance is to waive rights of subrogation, the certificate shall
expressly reflect in writing the insurers' acceptance of such requirements. Failure by Entity to
furnish certificates of insurance or failure by Host to request same shall not constitute a waiver by
Host of the insurance requirements set forth herein. In the event of such failure on the part of
Entity, Host expressly reserves the right to enforce these requirements.
Page 2 at Exhibit D
(i) Self -Assumption. Any self -insured retention, deductibles and exclusions in
coverage in the policies required under this article shall be assumed by, for the account of and at
the sole risk of Entity or the subcontractor which provides the insurance and to the extent
applicable shall be paid by such Entity or subcontractor. In no event shall the liability of Entity or
any subcontractor thereof be limited to the extent of any of the minimum limits of insurance
required herein.
2. NOTICE OF LOSS, INJURY OR DAMAGE.
In the event of any "significant" injury to persons or damage to property that occurs on the
premises of Host during the performance of this Agreement by Entity or any subcontractor
thereof, Entity shall notify Host as promptly as reasonably practical after the occurrence of such
injury or damage, and shall provide adequate details to enable Host to investigate the cause of
such injury or damage. For the purposes of this provision, the term "significant" shall mean injury
to persons that results in hospital treatment of such injury, and for damage to property, any
damage or loss of property in excess of Ten Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($10,000.00).
3. RISK OF LOSS.
Entity assumes, and shall ensure that all subcontractors thereof and their respective
employees assume, the risk of loss due to its actions which impact the operation of Host's facility
or operation of other party's equipment located in Host's facility, or destruction of or damage to
any property of Host or other parties whether owned, hired, rented, borrowed or otherwise. Entity
waives, and shall ensure that any subcontractor thereof and their respective employees waive, all
rights of recovery against Host, its subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees
and agents for any such loss, or against loss due to destruction of or damage to any property of
Entity, any subcontractor or their respective employees, unless the destruction of the property
was due to Host negligence.
