In the absence of a specific schedule, the Services shall be performed to completion in a diligent and timely manner.

The Consumer Price Index to be used in such calculation is the "Consumer Price Index, All Items, 1982-84=100 for All Urban Consumers (CPI -U)", for the Los Angeles - Robert's Waste & Recycling Page 2 Riverside -Orange County Metropolitan Area, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics. If both an official index and one or more unofficial indices are published, the official index shall be used. If said Consumer Price Index is no longer published at the adjustment date, it shall be constructed by conversion tables included in such new index. In no event, however, shall the amount payable under this Agreement be reduced below the Billing Rates in effect immediately preceding such adjustment. The maximum adjustment increase to the Billing Rates, for any year where an adjustment is made pursuant to this Section, shall not exceed the Consumer Price Index or 2.0% of the Billing Rates in effect immediately preceding such adjustment, whichever is less. 4.3 Contractor shall submit monthly invoices to City describing the Work performed the preceding month.

Contractor shall be entitled to receive interest on any withheld sums at the rate of return that City earned on its investments during the time period, from the date of withholding of any amounts found to have been improperly withheld. 22. CITY'S RIGHT TO EMPLOY OTHER CONTRACTORS City reserves the right to employ other contractors in connection with the Project. 23. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST 23.1 Contractor or its employees may be subject to the provisions of the California Political Reform Act of 1974 (the "Act"), which (1) requires such persons to disclose any financial interest that may foreseeably be materially affected by the Work Robert's Waste & Recycling Page 9 performed under this Agreement, and (2) prohibits such persons from making, or participating in making, decisions that will foreseeably financially affect such interest. 23.2 If subject to the Act, Contractor shall conform to all requirements of the Act.
