Assign to the State all of the rights, title, and interest of the Contractor under the orders and subcontracts so terminated, in which case the Board has the right, at its discretion, to settle or pay any or all claims arising out of the termination of such orders and subcontracts.

Preserve and transfer any materials, Contract deliverables and/or the Board property in the Contractor’s possession as directed by the Board.

The rights and remedies of the Board under this section are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided under this Contract or otherwise provided under law. 2.44 WAIVER Waiver of any default or breach shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent default or breach. Any waiver shall not be construed to be a modification of the terms of this Contract unless stated to be such in writing and signed by Authorized Representative of the Board.

Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that: 1. The Contractor is a public body, properly constituted and operating under the laws of the State of Washington, empowered to receive and expend federal, state and local funds, to contract with the State of Washington, and to receive and expend the funds involved to accomplish the objectives set forth in their application. 2. The Contractor is empowered to accept the Public Works Board funding and to provide for any required repayment of the loan as set forth in the Contract. 3. There is currently no litigation in existence seeking to enjoin the commencement or completion of the above-described public facilities project or to enjoin the Contractor from and requirement to repay the loan extended by the Public Works Board with respect to such project. The Contractor is not a party to litigation, which will materially affect any requirement to repay such loan on the terms contained in the Contract. 4. Assumption of any obligation to repay would not exceed statutory and administrative rule debt limitations applicable to the Contractor. __________________________________ _____________________________ Signature of Attorney Date __________________________________ Name _______________________________________________________________________ Address DocuSign Envelope ID: 06B547B3-AFDB-4359-9A9D-04FD7600E1D2 271 Pth St. NE, East Wenatchee, WA 98802 Sean Lewis 1/10/2024 | 7:40 AM PST Certificate Of Completion Envelope Id: 06B547B3AFDB43599A9D04FD7600E1D2 Status: Completed Subject: Complete with DocuSign: FY24_EastWenatchee_PWB_Emergency_Contract.pdf Division: Local Government Program: Public Works Board ContractNumber: PE24-96103-004 DocumentType: Contract Source Envelope: Document Pages: 21 Signatures: 3 Envelope Originator: Certificate Pages: 5 Initials: 0 Ava Gombosky AutoNav: Enabled EnvelopeId Stamping: Enabled Time Zone: (UTC-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada) 1011 Plum Street SE MS 42525 Olympia, WA 98504-2525 ava.gombosky@commerce.wa.gov IP Address: 198.239.106.180 Record Tracking Status: Original 12/13/2023 5:36:30 PM Holder: Ava Gombosky ava.gombosky@commerce.wa.gov Location: DocuSign Security Appliance Status: Connected Pool: StateLocal Storage Appliance Status: Connected Pool: Washington State Department of Commerce Location: DocuSign Signer Events Signature Timestamp Sean Lewis slewis@eastwenatcheewa.gov Security Level: Email, Account Authentication (None) Signature Adoption: Pre-selected Style Using IP Address: 66.172.102.228 Sent: 1/9/2024 5:57:27 PM Viewed: 1/10/2024 7:39:36 AM Signed: 1/10/2024 7:40:54 AM Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure: Accepted: 1/10/2024 7:39:35 AM ID: 1a66108d-18b0-41b0-86c0-0b3bf4b32383 Jerrilea Crawford jcrawford@eastwenatcheewa.gov Mayor Security Level: Email, Account Authentication (None)Signature Adoption: Pre-selected Style Using IP Address: 66.172.102.228 Sent: 1/10/2024 7:40:55 AM Viewed: 1/16/2024 8:57:12 AM Signed: 1/16/2024 8:57:21 AM Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure: Accepted: 10/14/2021 12:52:15 PM ID: 9ed53d26-d384-4c45-95d7-66fbdecefc84 Kathryn Gardow pwbgardowk@gmail.com Security Level: Email, Account Authentication (None) Signature Adoption: Uploaded Signature Image Using IP Address: 75.172.123.240 Sent: 1/16/2024 8:57:23 AM Viewed: 1/17/2024 8:56:17 AM Signed: 1/17/2024 8:56:30 AM Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure: Accepted: 1/17/2024 8:56:17 AM ID: cb580264-e6b2-418c-b627-feaf78fb4efe In Person Signer Events Signature Timestamp Editor Delivery Events Status Timestamp Agent Delivery Events Status Timestamp Intermediary Delivery Events Status Timestamp Certified Delivery Events Status Timestamp Carbon Copy Events Status Timestamp Garren Melton GMelton@eastwenatcheewa.gov Security Level: Email, Account Authentication (None) Sent: 1/17/2024 8:56:31 AM Viewed: 1/17/2024 9:18:12 AM Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure: Not Offered via DocuSign Witness Events Signature Timestamp Notary Events Signature Timestamp Envelope Summary Events Status Timestamps Envelope Sent Hashed/Encrypted 1/9/2024 5:57:27 PM Certified Delivered Security Checked 1/17/2024 8:56:17 AM Signing Complete Security Checked 1/17/2024 8:56:30 AM Completed Security Checked 1/17/2024 8:56:31 AM Payment Events Status Timestamps Electronic Record and Signature Disclosure ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE From time to time, Washington State Department of Commerce (we, us or Company) may be required by law to provide to you certain written notices or disclosures.
