Project Understanding A. General Understanding/Assumptions The United City of Yorkville (City) intends to install temporary traffic signals at the intersection of U.S. Route 34 and Sycamore Road and has requested that Smith Engineering Consultants (SEC) submit a proposal for the preparation of contract plans and specifications. Permanent traffic signal plans for this intersection were previously prepared by Michael J. Cap Ltd. in 1997 and all of the underground components (excluding electric cable) have been constructed per those plans. Rather than complete the permanent installation, the City has elected to pursue a temporary installation as the development along the north side of Route 34 intends to add a fourth leg to the intersection at some point in the future. Addition of a fourth leg would require significant alterations to any permanent installation completed by the City. Per the City's request, the following will be incorporated into the new traffic signal plans: 1. Opticom emergency vehicle pre - emption equipment. 2. Battery back -up system. 3. Veterans Parkway to be included on the U.S. Route 34 street name sign mounted on the span wire. 4. Video vehicle detection instead of detector loops. As part of the temporary traffic signal installation, the existing mast arm and signal post foundations will be removed to the existing ground line. The existing conduit and handholes (except the double handhole) will be abandoned. It is assumed that the controller foundation will need to be removed and replaced in order to accommodate the installation of a battery back -up system. In a letter to the City dated June 26, 2006, IDOT, District 3 requested that the traffic signals at Sycamore Road be interconnected to the proposed traffic signals 2,100' to the east (Beecher Road). It is assumed that IDOT will permit this interconnect to be installed with the ultimate, permanent traffic signal installation (to be completed by the developer) as the City has requested that an interconnect not be included in the temporary traffic signal plans. IDOT, District 3 has also indicated that a revised Intersection Design Study (IDS) will not need to be submitted as they anticipate that no additional roadway improvements will be required.

ADDITIONAL CONTRACT UNDERSTANDING Extra Work Any work required but not included as part of this contract shall be considered extra work. Extra work will be billed on a Time and Material basis with prior approval of the CLIENT. Outside Consultants SMITH ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS, A division of SEC Group, Inc., is not responsible for accuracy of any plans, surveys or information of any type including electronic media prepared by any other consultants, etc. provided to SEC for use in preparation of plans. SEC is not responsible for accuracy of topographic surveys provided by others. A field check of a topographic survey provided by others will not be done under this contract unless indicated in the Scope of Work. Design Without Construction Review It is agreed that the professional services of SEC do not extend to or include the review or site observation of the contractor's work or performance. It is further agreed that the CLIENT will defend, indemnify and hold harmless SEC from any claim or suit whatsoever, including but not limited to all payments, expenses or costs involved, arising from the contractor's performance or the failure of the contractor's work to conform to the design intent and the contract documents. SEC agrees to be responsible for its employees negligent acts, errors or omissions. Attorneys' Fees In the event of any litigation arising from or related to the services provided under this AGREEMENT, the prevailing party will be entitled to recovery of all reasonable costs incurred, including staff time, court costs, attorneys' fees and other related expenses. Certificate of Merit The CLIENT shall make no claim for professional negligence, either directly or in a third party claim, against SEC unless the CLIENT has first provided SEC with a written certification executed by an independent design professional currently practicing in the same discipline as SEC and licensed in the State of Illinois. This certification shall: a) contain the name and license number of the certifier; b) specify each and every act or omission that the certifier contends is a violation of the standard of care expected of a Design Professional performing professional services under similar circumstances; and c) state in complete detail the basis for the certifier's opinion that each such act or omission constitutes such a violation. This certificate shall be provided to SEC not less than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the presentation of any claim or the institution of any arbitration or judicial proceeding. Standard of Care Services provided by SEC under this AGREEMENT will be performed in a manner consistent with that degree of care and skill ordinarily exercised by members of the same profession currently practicing under similar circumstances. Job Site Safety Neither the professional activities of SEC, nor the presence of SEC'S employees and subconsultants at a construction site, shall relieve the General Contractor and any other entity of their obligations, duties and responsibilities including, but not limited to, construction means, methods, sequence, techniques or procedures necessary for performing, superintending or coordinating all portions of the work of construction in accordance with the contract documents and any health or safety precautions required by any regulatory agencies. SEC and its personnel have no authority to exercise any control over any construction contractor or other entity or their employees in connection with their work or any health or safety precautions. The CLIENT agrees that the General Contractor is solely responsible for job site safety, and warrants that this intent shall be made evident in the CLIENT's AGREEMENT with the General Contractor. The CLIENT also agrees that the CLIENT, SEC and SEC'S consultants shall be indemnified and shall be made additional insureds on the General Contractor's and all subcontractor's general liability policies on a primary and non - contributory basis. �I Mr. Joe Wywrot United City of Yorkville U.S Route 34 at Sycamore Road — Temporary Traffic Signal Plans SEC Job No.: YORK- 070427 June 28, 2007 Page 8 Reuse of Documents All project documents including, but not limited to, plans and specifications furnished by SEC under this project are intended for use on this project only. Any reuse, without specific written verification or adoption by SEC, shall be at the CLIENT's sole risk, and CLIENT shall indemnify and hold harmless SEC from all claims, damages and expenses including attorney's fees arising out of or resulting therefrom. Ownership of Instruments of Service All reports, plans, specifications, field data, field notes, laboratory test data, calculations, estimates and other documents including all documents on electronic media prepared by SEC as instruments of service shall remain the property of SEC. SEC shall retain these records for a period of five (5) years following completion/submission of the records, during which period they will be made available to the CLIENT at all reasonable times. Failure to Abide by Design Documents or to Obtain Guidance The CLIENT agrees that it would be unfair to hold SEC liable for problems that might occur should SEC'S plans, specifications or design intents not be followed, or for problems resulting from others' failure to obtain and /or follow SEC'S guidance with respect to any errors, omissions, inconsistencies, ambiguities or conflicts which are detected or alleged to exist in or as a consequence of implementing SEC'S plans, specifications or other instruments of service. Accordingly, the CLIENT waives any claim against SEC, and agrees to defend, indemnify and hold SEC harmless from any claim for injury or losses that results from failure to follow SEC'S plans, specifications or design intent, or for failure to obtain and /or follow SEC'S guidance with respect to any alleged errors, omissions, inconsistencies, ambiguities or conflicts contained within or arising as a result of implementing SEC'S plans, specifications or other instruments of services. The CLIENT also agrees to compensate SEC for any time spent and expenses incurred by SEC'S prevailing fee schedule and expense reimbursement policy. Opinion of Probable Construction Cost SEC shall submit to the CLIENT an opinion of probable cost required to construct work recommended, designed, or specified by SEC. SEC is not a construction cost estimator or construction contractor, nor should SEC'S rendering an opinion of probable construction costs be considered equivalent to the nature and extent of service a construction cost estimator or construction contractor would provide. SEC'S opinion will be based solely upon his or her own experience with construction. This requires SEC to make a number of assumptions as to actual conditions that will be encountered on site; the specific decisions of other design professionals engaged; the means and methods of construction the contractor will employ; the cost and extent of labor, equipment and materials the contractor will employ; contractor's techniques in determining prices and market conditions at the time, and other factors over which SEC has no control: Given the assumptions which must be made, SEC cannot guarantee the accuracy of his or her opinions of cost, and in recognition of that fact, the CLIENT waives any claim against SEC relative to the accuracy of SEC'S opinion of probable construction cost. Design Information in Electronic Form Because electronic file information can be easily altered or corrupted, modified by other parties, either intentionally or inadvertently, without notice or indication, SEC reserves the right to remove itself from of its ownership and /or involvement in the material from each electronic medium not held in its possession. The CLIENT shall retain copies of the work performed by SEC for information and use by the CLIENT for the specific purpose for which SEC was engaged. Said materials shall not be used by the CLIENT or transferred to any other party, for use in other projects, additions to this project, or any other purpose for which the material was not strictly intended by SEC without SEC's expressed written permission. Any unauthorized use or reuse or modifications of this material shall be at the CLIENT's sole risk. SEC makes no warranties, express or implied, and assumes no responsibility for any damages the CLIENT may incur through its use or misuse. This material is subject to change at our discretion. Coordination for updates is the responsibility of the CLIENT. SEC is not responsible to the CLIENT for updating the electronic file or for compatibility with the CLIENT's hardware and/or software. It is the CLIENT's responsibility to examine material for virus contamination prior to use. The CLIENT agrees to defend, indemnify, hold harmless SEC, its Officers and employees from any and all claims, injuries, damages, losses, expenses, attorney's fees, and liabilities that may arise or result from the use of this information by the CLIENT or its employees. Mr. Joe Wywrot United City of Yorkville U.S Route 34 at Sycamore Road — Temporary Traffic Signal Plans SEC Job No.: YORK- 070427 June 28, 2007 Page 9 Dispute Resolution In an effort to resolve any conflicts that arise during the design or construction of the project or following the completion of the project, the Consultant and CLIENT agree that all disputes between them arising out of or relating to this AGREEMENT shall be submitted to nonbinding mediation unless the parties mutually agree otherwise. If the dispute cannot be settled amicably, it shall then be settled by arbitration in the State of Illinois in accordance with the American Arbitration Associates. The Award of the arbitrator shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The CLIENT agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to limit the liability of SEC and its subconsultants to the CLIENT for any and all claims, losses, costs, damages of any nature whatsoever or claims expenses from any cause or causes, including attorneys' fees and costs and expert witness fees and costs, so that the total aggregate liability of SEC and its subconsultants to all those named shall not exceed SEC'S total fee for services rendered on this project, whichever is greater. It is intended that this limitation apply to any and all liability or cause of action however alleged or arising, unless otherwise prohibited by law. Exclusion This fee does not include attendance at any meetings or public hearings other than those specifically listed in the Scope of Services.

No work shall be signed or sealed until payment in full is received. 2. This AGREEMENT shall not be enforceable by either party until each has in its possession a copy of this AGREEMENT signed by the other. Time Limit This AGREEMENT must be executed within thirty (30) days of the composition date to be accepted under the terms set forth herein. This contract shall expire one year from date of execution.
