Contractor’s Key Personnel The Contractor shall use adequate numbers of qualified individuals with suitable training, education, experience and skill to perform the Services. The Contractor has been selected to perform the Services herein, in part, because of the skills and expertise of the key individuals and/or firms (collectively “Contractor’s Key Personnel”) that are listed in Exhibit F. Substitution or replacement of the individuals and/or firms identified in Exhibit F is not allowed except with written approval of the AOC If the designated lead or key person fails to perform to the satisfaction of the AOC upon written notice, the Contractor will have fifteen (15) calendar days to remove that person from the Project and replace that person with one acceptable to the AOC. All lead or key personnel for any Subcontractor must also be designated by any Subcontractor and are subject to all conditions stated in this section. The Contractor shall be responsible for all costs associated with replacing any of Contractor’s Key Personnel, including the additional costs to familiarize replacement personnel with the Services. If the Contractor does not furnish replacement personnel acceptable to the AOC, the AOC may terminate this Agreement for cause. Prior to the authorization of any Phase of the Agreement, the parties will agree upon any Key Personnel applicable to that Phase. Said personnel shall be documented in Exhibit F. Standard of Care The Contractor, its officers, agents, employees, Subcontractors, consultants and any persons or entities for whom Contractor is responsible, shall provide all Services pursuant to this Agreement in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement and in a manner consistent with the standard of care under California law applicable to those who specialize in providing such services for projects of the type, scope, and complexity of the Project. The AOC’s Acceptance of any submittals, deliverables, or other work product of the Contractor shall not be construed as assent that Contractor has complied, nor in any way relieve the Contractor of, compliance with (i) the applicable standard of care or (ii) applicable statutes, regulations, rules, guidelines, and requirements. AOC’s Quality Assurance Plan The AOC or its agent may evaluate Contractor’s performance under this Agreement. Such evaluation may include assessing Contractor’s compliance with all Agreement terms and performance standards. Any deficiencies in the Contractor’s performance that the AOC determines are severe or continuing and that may place performance of the Agreement in jeopardy if not corrected, will be reported to the Contractor’s principal. The report may include recommended improvements and corrective measures to be taken by the Contractor. If the Contractor’s performance remains unsatisfactory, the AOC may, without limitation, terminate this Agreement for cause or impose other penalties as specified in this Agreement. Any evaluation of Contractor’s performance conducted by the AOC shall not be construed as an Acceptance of the Contractor’s work product or methods of performance. Contractor shall be solely responsible for the quality, completeness, and accuracy of the work product that Contractor and its Subcontractors deliver under this Agreement. Contractor shall not rely on AOC to perform any quality control review of Contractor’s work product, as such review shall be conducted by Contractor.

Such approval shall not relieve the Contractor of the obligation to perform all work in compliance with the Contract terms.
