THIS PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as
of July 1 , 2022, between the Town of Fountain Hills, an Arizona municipal corporation (the
“Town”) and Van Loon Industries, LLC, D/B/A VLI Events, a(n) Arizona limited liability
company (the “Vendor”).

proper due diligence.
B. The Town desires to engage the Vendor to provide stage rental and related event
services (the “Services”).
C. The Town desires to enter into an Agreement with the Vendor to perform the
Services, more particularly set forth in Section 2 below.
AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing introduction and recitals, which
are incorporated herein by reference, the following mutual covenants and conditions, and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Town and the Vendor hereby agree as follows:
1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement shall be effective as of the date first set forth
above and shall remain in full force and effect until June 30, 2023 (the “Initial Term”), unless
terminated as otherwise provided in this Agreement. After the expiration of the Initial Term, this
Agreement may be renewed for up two successive one-year terms (the “Renewal Term”) if (i) it is
deemed in the best interests of the Town, subject to availability and appropriation of funds for
renewal, (ii) at least 30 days prior to the end of the then-current term of this Agreement, the Vendor
requests, in writing, to extend this Agreement for an additional one-year term and (iii) the Town
approves the additional one-year term in writing (including any price adjustments approved as part
of this Agreement), as evidenced by the Town Manager’s signature thereon, which approval may
be withheld by the Town for any reason. The Vendor’s failure to seek a renewal of this Agreement
shall cause this Agreement to terminate at the end of the then-current term of this Agreement;
provided, however, that the Town may, at its discretion and with the agreement of the Vendor,
elect to waive this requirement and renew this Agreement. The Initial Term and the Renewal Term
are collectively referred to herein as the “Term.” Upon renewal, the terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
2. Scope of Work. This is an indefinite quantity and indefinite delivery Agreement
for Services as previously set forth herein. Services shall only be provided when the Town
identifies a need and proper authorization and documentation have been approved. For project(s)
determined by the Town to be appropriate for this Agreement, the Vendor shall provide the
Services to the Town on an as-required basis relating to the specific Services as may be agreed
upon between the parties in writing, in the form of a written acknowledgment between the parties
describing the Services to be provided (each, a “Work Order”). Each Work Order issued for
Services pursuant to this Agreement shall be (i) in the form provided and approved by the Town
for the Services, (ii) contain a reference to this Agreement and (iii) be attached to hereto as Exhibit
B and incorporated herein by reference. By signing this Agreement, Vendor acknowledges and
agrees that Work Order(s) containing unauthorized exceptions, conditions, limitations, or
provisions in conflict with the terms of this Agreement, other than Town's project-specific
requirements, are hereby expressly declared void and shall be of no force and effect. The Town
does not guarantee any minimum or maximum amount of Services will be requested under this
Agreement.
3. Compensation. The Town shall pay the Vendor an amount not to exceed $50,000
per term for the Scope, attached hereto Exhibit A, and per the Fee Schedule, attached hereto
Exhibit C, and both Exhibits incorporated herein by reference. The aggregate amount per renewal
term shall not exceed $50,000 in any case unless the Agreement is affirmed and ratified via an
executed amendment. All remaining terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full
force and effect.
4. Payments. The Town shall pay the Vendor monthly (and the Vendor shall invoice
the Town monthly), based upon work performed and completed to date, and upon submission and
approval of invoices. All invoices shall document and itemize all work completed to date. Each
invoice statement shall include a record of time expended and work performed in sufficient detail
to justify payment. This Agreement must be referenced on all invoices.
5. Documents. All documents, including any intellectual property rights thereto,
prepared and submitted to the Town pursuant to this Agreement shall be the property of the Town.
6. Vendor Personnel. Vendor shall provide adequate, experienced personnel, capable
of and devoted to the successful performance of the Services under this Agreement. Vendor agrees
to assign specific individuals to key positions. If deemed qualified, the Vendor is encouraged to
hire Town residents to fill vacant positions at all levels. Vendor agrees that, upon commencement
of the Services to be performed under this Agreement, key personnel shall not be removed or
replaced without prior written notice to the Town. If key personnel are not available to perform
the Services for a continuous period exceeding 30 calendar days, or are expected to devote
substantially less effort to the Services than initially anticipated, Vendor shall immediately notify
the Town of same and shall, subject to the concurrence of the Town, replace such personnel with
personnel possessing substantially equal ability and qualifications.
7. Inspection; Acceptance. All work shall be subject to inspection and acceptance by
the Town at reasonable times during Vendor’s performance. The Vendor shall provide and
maintain a self-inspection system that is acceptable to the Town.
8. Licenses; Materials. Vendor shall maintain in current status all federal, state and
local licenses and permits required for the operation of the business conducted by the Vendor. The
Town has no obligation to provide Vendor, its employees or subcontractors any business
registrations or licenses required to perform the specific services set forth in this Agreement. The
Town has no obligation to provide tools, equipment or material to Vendor.
9. Performance Warranty. Vendor warrants that the Services rendered will conform
to the requirements of this Agreement and with the care and skill ordinarily used by members of
the same profession practicing under similar circumstances at the same time and in the same
locality.
10. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Vendor shall
indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Town and each council member, officer, employee or
agent thereof (the Town and any such person being herein called an “Indemnified Party”), for,
from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs and the costs of appellate proceedings) to
which any such Indemnified Party may become subject, under any theory of liability whatsoever
(“Claims”), insofar as such Claims (or actions in respect thereof) relate to, arise out of, or are
caused by or based upon the negligent acts, intentional misconduct, errors, mistakes or omissions,
breach of contract, in connection with the work or services of the Vendor, its officers, employees,
agents, or any tier of subcontractor in the performance of this Agreement. The amount and type
of insurance coverage requirements set forth below will in no way be construed as limiting the
scope of the indemnity in this Section.
11. Insurance.
11.1 General.
A. Insurer Qualifications. Without limiting any obligations or
liabilities of Vendor, Vendor shall purchase and maintain, at its own expense, hereinafter
stipulated minimum insurance with insurance companies authorized to do business in the
State of Arizona pursuant to ARIZ. REV. STAT. § 20-206, as amended, with an AM Best,
Inc. rating of A- or above with policies and forms satisfactory to the Town. Failure to
maintain insurance as specified herein may result in termination of this Agreement at the
Town’s option.
B. No Representation of Coverage Adequacy. By requiring insurance
herein, the Town does not represent that coverage and limits will be adequate to protect
Vendor. The Town reserves the right to review any and all of the insurance policies and/or
endorsements cited in this Agreement but has no obligation to do so. Failure to demand
such evidence of full compliance with the insurance requirements set forth in this
Agreement or failure to identify any insurance deficiency shall not relieve Vendor from,
nor be construed or deemed a waiver of, its obligation to maintain the required insurance
at all times during the performance of this Agreement.
C. Additional Insured. All insurance coverage, except Workers’
Compensation insurance and Professional Liability insurance, if applicable, shall name, to
the fullest extent permitted by law for claims arising out of the performance of this
Agreement, the Town, its agents, representatives, officers, directors, officials and
employees as Additional Insured as specified under the respective coverage sections of this
Agreement.
D. Coverage Term. All insurance required herein shall be maintained
in full force and effect until all work or services required to be performed under the terms
of this Agreement are satisfactorily performed, completed and formally accepted by the
Town, unless specified otherwise in this Agreement.
E. Primary Insurance. Vendor’s insurance shall be primary insurance
with respect to performance of this Agreement and in the protection of the Town as an
Additional Insured.
F. Claims Made. In the event any insurance policies required by this
Agreement are written on a “claims made” basis, coverage shall extend, either by keeping
coverage in force or purchasing an extended reporting option, for three years past
completion and acceptance of the services. Such continuing coverage shall be evidenced
by submission of annual Certificates of Insurance citing applicable coverage is in force and
contains the provisions as required herein for the three-year period.
G. Waiver. All policies, except for Professional Liability, including
Workers’ Compensation insurance, shall contain a waiver of rights of recovery
(subrogation) against the Town, its agents, representatives, officials, officers and
employees for any claims arising out of the work or services of Vendor. Vendor shall
arrange to have such subrogation waivers incorporated into each policy via formal written
endorsement thereto.
H. Policy Deductibles and/or Self-Insured Retentions. The policies set
forth in these requirements may provide coverage that contains deductibles or self-insured
retention amounts. Such deductibles or self-insured retention shall not be applicable with
respect to the policy limits provided to the Town. Vendor shall be solely responsible for
any such deductible or self-insured retention amount.
I. Use of Subcontractors. If any work under this Agreement is
subcontracted in any way, Vendor shall execute written agreements with its subcontractors
containing the indemnification provisions set forth in this Agreement and insurance
requirements set forth herein protecting the Town and Vendor. Vendor shall be responsible
for executing any agreements with its subcontractors and obtaining certificates of insurance
verifying the insurance requirements.
J. Evidence of Insurance. Prior to commencing any work or services
under this Agreement, Vendor will provide the Town with suitable evidence of insurance
in the form of certificates of insurance and a copy of the declaration page(s) of the insurance
policies as required by this Agreement, issued by Vendor’s insurance insurer(s) as evidence
that policies are placed with acceptable insurers as specified herein and provide the
required coverages, conditions and limits of coverage specified in this Agreement and that
such coverage and provisions are in full force and effect. Confidential information such as
the policy premium may be redacted from the declaration page(s) of each insurance policy,
provided that such redactions do not alter any of the information required by this
Agreement. The Town shall reasonably rely upon the certificates of insurance and
declaration page(s) of the insurance policies as evidence of coverage but such acceptance
and reliance shall not waive or alter in any way the insurance requirements or obligations
of this Agreement. If any of the policies required by this Agreement expire during the life
of this Agreement, it shall be Vendor’s responsibility to forward renewal certificates and
declaration page(s) to the Town 30 days prior to the expiration date. All certificates of
insurance and declarations required by this Agreement shall be identified by referencing
the RFP number and title or this Agreement. A $25.00 administrative fee shall be assessed
for all certificates or declarations received without the appropriate RFP number and title or
a reference to this Agreement, as applicable. Additionally, certificates of insurance and
declaration page(s) of the insurance policies submitted without referencing the appropriate
RFP number and title or a reference to this Agreement, as applicable, will be subject to
rejection and may be returned or discarded. Certificates of insurance and declaration
page(s) shall specifically include the following provisions:
(1) The Town, its agents, representatives, officers, directors,
officials and employees are Additional Insureds as follows:

agents, representatives, officers, officials and employees for any claims arising out
of work or services performed by Vendor under this Agreement.
(4) ACORD certificate of insurance form 25 (2014/01) is
preferred. If ACORD certificate of insurance form 25 (2001/08) is used, the
phrases in the cancellation provision “endeavor to” and “but failure to mail such
notice shall impose no obligation or liability of any kind upon the company, its
agents or representatives” shall be deleted. Certificate forms other than ACORD

expire, be canceled, or be materially changed without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Town.
12. Termination; Cancellation.
12.1 For Town’s Convenience. This Agreement is for the convenience of the
Town and, as such, may be terminated without cause after receipt by Vendor of written notice by
the Town. Upon termination for convenience, Vendor shall be paid for all undisputed services
performed to the termination date.
12.2 For Cause. If either party fails to perform any obligation pursuant to this
Agreement and such party fails to cure its nonperformance within 30 days after notice of

such default, the non-defaulting party may terminate this Agreement immediately for cause and
will have all remedies that are available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, the
remedy of specific performance. If the nature of the defaulting party’s nonperformance is such
that it cannot reasonably be cured within 30 days, then the defaulting party will have such
additional periods of time as may be reasonably necessary under the circumstances, provided the
defaulting party immediately (A) provides written notice to the non-defaulting party and (B)
commences to cure its nonperformance and thereafter diligently continues to completion the cure
of its nonperformance. In no event shall any such cure period exceed 90 days. In the event of
such termination for cause, payment shall be made by the Town to the Vendor for the undisputed
portion of its fee due as of the termination date.
12.3 Due to Work Stoppage. This Agreement may be terminated by the Town
upon 30 days’ written notice to Vendor in the event that the Services are permanently abandoned.
In the event of such termination due to work stoppage, payment shall be made by the Town to the
Vendor for the undisputed portion of its fee due as of the termination date.
12.4 Conflict of Interest. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of ARIZ.
REV. STAT. § 38-511. The Town may cancel this Agreement without penalty or further obligations
by the Town or any of its departments or agencies if any person significantly involved in initiating,
negotiating, securing, drafting or creating this Agreement on behalf of the Town or any of its
departments or agencies is, at any time while this Agreement or any extension of this Agreement
is in effect, an employee of any other party to this Agreement in any capacity or a Vendor to any
other party of this Agreement with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
12.5 Gratuities. The Town may, by written notice to the Vendor, cancel this
Agreement if it is found by the Town that gratuities, in the form of economic opportunity, future
employment, entertainment, gifts or otherwise, were offered or given by the Vendor or any agent
or representative of the Vendor to any officer, agent or employee of the Town for the purpose of
securing this Agreement. In the event this Agreement is canceled by the Town pursuant to this
provision, the Town shall be entitled, in addition to any other rights and remedies, to recover and
withhold from the Vendor an amount equal to 150% of the gratuity.
12.6 Agreement Subject to Appropriation. This Agreement is subject to the
provisions of ARIZ. CONST. ART. IX, § 5 and ARIZ. REV. STAT. § 42-17106. The provisions of
this Agreement for payment of funds by the Town shall be effective when funds are appropriated
for purposes of this Agreement and are actually available for payment. The Town shall be the sole
judge and authority in determining the availability of funds under this Agreement and the Town
shall keep the Vendor fully informed as to the availability of funds for this Agreement. The
obligation of the Town to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement is a current expense of
the Town, payable exclusively from such annual appropriations, and is not a general obligation or
indebtedness of the Town. If the Town Council fails to appropriate money sufficient to pay the
amounts as set forth in this Agreement during any immediately succeeding fiscal year, this
Agreement shall terminate at the end of then-current fiscal year and the Town and the Vendor shall
be relieved of any subsequent obligation under this Agreement.
13. Miscellaneous.
13.1 Independent Contractor. It is clearly understood that each party will act in
its individual capacity and not as an agent, employee, partner, joint venturer, or associate of the
other. An employee or agent of one party shall not be deemed or construed to be the employee or
agent of the other for any purpose whatsoever. The Vendor acknowledges and agrees that the
Services provided under this Agreement are being provided as an independent contractor, not as
an employee or agent of the Town. Vendor, its employees and subcontractors are not entitled to
workers’ compensation benefits from the Town. The Town does not have the authority to
supervise or control the actual work of Vendor, its employees or subcontractors. The Vendor, and
not the Town, shall determine the time of its performance of the services provided under this
Agreement so long as Vendor meets the requirements as agreed in Section 2 above and in Exhibit
A. Vendor is neither prohibited from entering into other contracts nor prohibited from practicing
its profession elsewhere. Town and Vendor do not intend to nor will they combine business
operations under this Agreement.

the State of Arizona and suit pertaining to this Agreement may be brought only in courts in
Maricopa County, Arizona.
13.3 Laws and Regulations. Vendor shall keep fully informed and shall at all

whom the Vendor is responsible abides by, and remains in compliance with, all rules, regulations,
ordinances, statutes or laws affecting the Services, including, but not limited to, the following: (A)
existing and future Town and County ordinances and regulations; (B) existing and future State and
Federal laws; and (C) existing and future Occupational Safety and Health Administration
standards.
13.4 Amendments. This Agreement may be modified only by a written
amendment signed by persons duly authorized to enter into contracts on behalf of the Town and
the Vendor.
13.5 Provisions Required by Law. Each and every provision of law and any
clause required by law to be in this Agreement will be read and enforced as though it were included
herein and, if through mistake or otherwise any such provision is not inserted, or is not correctly
inserted, then upon the application of either party, this Agreement will promptly be physically
amended to make such insertion or correction.
13.6 Severability. The provisions of this Agreement are severable to the extent
that any provision or application held to be invalid by a Court of competent jurisdiction shall not
affect any other provision or application of this Agreement which may remain in effect without
the invalid provision or application.
13.7 Entire Agreement; Interpretation; Parol Evidence. This Agreement
represents the entire agreement of the parties with respect to its subject matter, and all previous
agreements, whether oral or written, entered into prior to this Agreement are hereby revoked and
superseded by this Agreement. No representations, warranties, inducements or oral agreements
have been made by any of the parties except as expressly set forth herein, or in any other
contemporaneous written agreement executed for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of
this Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted according to its plain meaning,
and no presumption shall be deemed to apply in favor of, or against the party drafting this
Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that each has had the opportunity to seek and
utilize legal counsel in the drafting of, review of, and entry into this Agreement.
13.8 Assignment; Delegation. No right or interest in this Agreement shall be
assigned or delegated by Vendor without prior, written permission of the Town, signed by the
Town Manager. Any attempted assignment or delegation by Vendor in violation of this provision
shall be a breach of this Agreement by Vendor.
13.9 Subcontracts. No subcontract shall be entered into by the Vendor with any
other party to furnish any of the material or services specified herein without the prior written
approval of the Town. The Vendor is responsible for performance under this Agreement whether
or not subcontractors are used. Failure to pay subcontractors in a timely manner pursuant to any
subcontract shall be a material breach of this Agreement by Vendor.
13.10 Rights and Remedies. No provision in this Agreement shall be construed,
expressly or by implication, as waiver by the Town of any existing or future right and/or remedy
available by law in the event of any claim of default or breach of this Agreement. The failure of
the Town to insist upon the strict performance of any term or condition of this Agreement or to
exercise or delay the exercise of any right or remedy provided in this Agreement, or by law, or the
Town’s acceptance of and payment for services, shall not release the Vendor from any
responsibilities or obligations imposed by this Agreement or by law, and shall not be deemed a
waiver of any right of the Town to insist upon the strict performance of this Agreement.
13.11 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event either party brings any action for any relief,
declaratory or otherwise, arising out of this Agreement or on account of any breach or default
hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to receive from the other party reasonable attorneys’
fees and reasonable costs and expenses, determined by the court sitting without a jury, which shall
be deemed to have accrued on the commencement of such action and shall be enforced whether or
not such action is prosecuted through judgment.
13.12 Liens. All materials or services shall be free of all liens and, if the Town
requests, a formal release of all liens shall be delivered to the Town.
13.13 Offset.
A. Offset for Damages. In addition to all other remedies at law or
equity, the Town may offset from any money due to the Vendor any amounts Vendor owes
to the Town for damages resulting from breach or deficiencies in performance or breach of
any obligation under this Agreement.

any money due to the Vendor any amounts Vendor owes to the Town for delinquent fees,
transaction privilege taxes and property taxes, including any interest or penalties.

obligations under this Agreement shall not be used or disclosed by it, its agents, officers, or

requesting such information should be referred to the Town. Vendor also agrees that any
information pertaining to individual persons shall not be divulged other than to employees or
officers of Vendor as needed for the performance of duties under this Agreement.
13.16 Records and Audit Rights. To ensure that the Vendor and its subcontractors
are complying with the warranty under subsection 13.17 below, Vendor’s and its subcontractor’s
books, records, correspondence, accounting procedures and practices, and any other supporting
evidence relating to this Agreement, including the papers of any Vendor and its subcontractors’
employees who perform any work or services pursuant to this Agreement (all of the foregoing
hereinafter referred to as “Records”), shall be open to inspection and subject to audit and/or
reproduction during normal working hours by the Town, to the extent necessary to adequately
permit (A) evaluation and verification of any invoices, payments or claims based on Vendor’s and
its subcontractors’ actual costs (including direct and indirect costs and overhead allocations)
incurred, or units expended directly in the performance of work under this Agreement and (B)
evaluation of the Vendor’s and its subcontractors’ compliance with the Arizona employer
sanctions laws referenced in subsection 13.17 below. To the extent necessary for the Town to

claimed costs or units expended, the Town shall have access to said Records, even if located at its
subcontractors’ facilities, from the effective date of this Agreement for the duration of the work
and until three years after the date of final payment by the Town to Vendor pursuant to this
Agreement. Vendor and its subcontractors shall provide the Town with adequate and appropriate
workspace so that the Town can conduct audits in compliance with the provisions of this
