ADMINISTRATION This Agreement will be administered by the General Services Department. Deputy Director Mike Pisani, or his designee, shall be the Purchase Administrator and shall have the authority to act for City under this Agreement. The Purchase Administrator or his/her authorized representative shall represent City in all matters pertaining to the services to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement. 3. DELIVERY Delivery to City of the Equipment shall be made within 300 calendar days from City issuance of the notice to proceed. Delivery shall be made to the City's Yard at 592 Superior Ave., Newport Beach, CA 92663. Time of delivery is of the essence in this Agreement. City reserves the right to refuse any goods and to cancel all or any part of the goods not conforming to applicable specifications, samples or descriptions. Acceptance of any part of the order for goods shall not bind City to accept future shipments nor deprive City of the right to return goods already accepted at Vendor's expense. Over shipments and under shipments of goods shall be only as agreed to in writing by City. Delivery shall not be deemed to be complete until all goods have actually been received and accepted in writing by the City. 3.1 Vendor shall submit all requests for extensions of time for delivery in writing to the City Purchase Administrator not later than ten (10) calendar days after the start of the condition that purportedly causes a delay. The Page 12 Purchase Administrator shall review all such requests and may, at his sole discretion, grant reasonable time extensions for unforeseeable delays that are beyond Vendor's control. 3.2 The parties agree that it is extremely difficult and impractical to determine and fix the actual damages that City will sustain should the Vendor fail to complete the work called for in this Agreement. Should Vendor fail to complete the work called for in this Agreement, Vendor agrees to the deduction of liquidated damages in the sum of Two Hundred Dollars and no/100 ($200.00) per day, per Piece of Equipment, for every day beyond the date scheduled for delivery provided in Section 3. Execution of this Agreement shall constitute agreement by the City and Vendor that the sum of Two Hundred Dollars and no/100 ($200.00) per day, per Piece of Equipment is the minimum value of costs and actual damages caused by the failure of Vendor to deliver the Equipment within the allotted time. Such sum is liquidated damages and shall not be construed as a penalty, and may be deducted from payments due the Vendor if such delay occurs. 4. ACCEPTANCE/ PAYMENT Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by City, acceptance shall not be deemed complete unless in writing and until each Piece of Equipment has actually been received, inspected and tested to the satisfaction of City, and payment shall be made in arrears after satisfactory acceptance. 5. NOTICES All notices, demands, requests or approvals to be given under the terms of this Agreement shall be given in writing, and conclusively shall be deemed served when delivered personally, or on the third business day after the deposit thereof in the United States mail, postage prepaid, first-class mail, addressed as hereinafter provided.

CONSENT TO BREACH NOT WAIVER No term or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed waived and no breach excused, unless such waiver or consent shall be in writing and signed by the party claimed to have waived or consented to such breach. Any consent by any party to, or waiver of, a breach by the other, whether express or implied, shall not constitute consent to, waiver of, or excuse for any other different or subsequent breach. 16.

By: Jay W. Bressler Sales Representative EXHIBIT B-1 We are pleased to submit a proposal to the CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH for Two (2) Pierce® 1250 GPM Triple Combination Pumper. The following paragraphs will describe in detail the apparatus proposed. Loose equipment not specifically requested will not be provided. PIERCE MANUFACTURING was incorporated in 1917. Since then we have been building bodies with one philosophy, "BUILD THE FINEST". Our skilled craftsmen take pride in their work, which is reflected, in the final product. We have been building fire apparatus since the early "forties" giving Pierce Manufacturing over 50 years of experience in the fire apparatus market. Our plant is located in Appleton, Wisconsin with over 757,000 total square feet of floor space situated on approximately 97 acres of land. A multi-million dollar inventory of parts is available to keep your unit in service long after it has left the factory. QUALITY AND WORKMANSHIP Pierce has set the pace for quality and workmanship in the fire apparatus field. Our tradition of building the highest quality units with craftsmen second to none has been the rule right from the beginning. We currently have a "Quality Achievement Supplier" program to insure the vendors and suppliers that we utilize meet the high standards that we demand. That is just part of our overall "Quality at the Source" program at Pierce. Another part of this program is employing experts in their fields, like a Certified American Welding Society Inspector to monitor our weld quality. DELIVERY The apparatus will be delivered under its own power to insure proper break-in of all components while the apparatus is still under warranty. INFORMATION At time of delivery, complete operation and maintenance manuals covering the apparatus will be provided. A permanent plate will be mounted in the driver's compartment specifying the quantity and type of fluids required including engine oil, engine coolant, transmission, pump transmission lubrication, pump primer and drive axle.
