Subject to preemptive federal or state law, and the Solid Waste Disposal Agreement Between King County and the City of Kent, dated December 31, 1986, the work to be performed consists of the Contractor's exclusive right to collect, haul and transport Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste as defined herein and in Kent City Code Chapter 7.03, as amended, from those Residential and Commercial Customers as defined in Contractor's Service Areas for Solid Waste disposal and/or delivery to Recyclable Materials processing centers for the term of this Contract and in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided, however, that any areas within the City heretofore or hereafter annexed which are subject to a franchise or WUTC certificate held by third parties pursuant to RCW 35A.14.900 are hereby excluded from the terms of this Contract until such time as the City has complied with the provisions of RCW 35A.14.900 and the franchise or permit has terminated. Areas annexed to the City which are serviced by Contractor with a franchise or a WUTC certificate are subject to section 2.4 of this Contract. It is acknowledged that this Contract is not intended to impose substantive standards affecting the price, route or service of"property," as that term is defined by federal and state laws. In the event a court decision is issued or legislation enacted which affects the legal definition of"property," as that term is used in the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act of 1994 and as considered in AGG Enterprises, Inc. v. Washington County, No. CIV 99-1097- KI, 2000 WL 361892 (D. Or.), and, as a result, limits the City's ability to enforce the exclusive rights granted under this Contract, the Contractor may provide collection services as to that "property" as a service excluded from this Contract. 2.3 Minimum Level of Service and Self Haul. Pursuant to Kent City Code Chapter 7.03, all persons and property shall be subject to and responsible for the minimum level of service and associated charges for service for residential and commercial solid waste, and residential and commercial multi-family recyclable materials, as applicable, whether or not such persons or property use the service, except as otherwise provided for in Chapter 7.03. Contractor's exclusive right granted herein shall not limit the right of waste generators to collect, transport, process, store and dispose of any Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, or Yard Waste generated solely from their specific property, nor shall it limit waste generators' rights to contract with third parties (e.g., landscape or yard maintenance companies) to transport, process, store and dispose of Yard Waste so long as the third party's treatment of Yard Waste is incidental to the service the third party is providing the resident. With the exception of self hauling by waste generators and the City's contractors and agents, no other use of, or scavenging of, collected Materials is permitted without the permission of the City. SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL,RECYCLING AND PROCESSING CONTRACT-5 (Btwn.City of Kent and Kent-Meridian Disposal-February 15,2001) 2.4 Annexation. If, during the life of this Contract, additional territory is added to the City through annexation within which the Contractor has an existing WUTC certificate or other franchise for collection and/or disposal of Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials and/or Yard Waste at the time of annexation, the Contractor shall make collection in such annexed areas in accordance with the provisions of this Contract at the unit prices set forth in this Contract. The City acknowledges that equipment, such as trucks, carts, and containers, may take time to procure and, therefore, shall not penalize the Contractor for delays in the provision of services to annexed areas due to procurement delays that are not within the reasonable control of the Contractor. In the event the City annexes areas within which the Contractor has an existing WUTC certificate or other franchise for collection and/or disposal of Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials and/or Yard Waste, the Contractor agrees, by accepting this Contract from the City, that the certificate or franchise applicable to the annexed areas shall be deemed canceled on the effective date of the annexation, and the City shall notify the WUTC to that effect as required under RCW 35A.14.900. The Contractor shall continue to service the area it previously served in the newly annexed areas under the terms and conditions set forth in this Contract and waives any and all claims or rights for compensation and/or damages for loss of franchise, business, or facilities as outlined in RCW 35A.14.900 from the City, its agents, officers or assigns arising out of the cancellation of the previous permit or franchise. The Contractor shall serve its Service Areas in the newly annexed areas for a tern of not less than ten (10) years from the date of annexation, and the City, pursuant to RCW 35A.14.900 and as required by said statute, shall not extend similar or competing services to the annexed territory for a period of ten (10) years after the date of annexation, except upon a proper showing of inability or refusal of Contractor to adequately service newly annexed territory. The right granted hereunder to serve newly annexed territory for a term of ten (10) years from the date of annexation shall require such service to be in accordance with the terms of this Contract even if the Contract has otherwise expired. This Contract is in lieu of a franchise as provided in RCW 35A.14.900. The Contractor expressly waives and releases its right to claim any damages or compensation from the City, its officers, agents or assigns arising out of the cancellation of any pre-existing certificate or franchise held by the Contractor prior to annexation and, further, specifically waives the right to receive any additional compensation or any rights of collection in the newly annexed territory other than the compensation for services contained in this Contract. Contractor expressly waives and releases any claim to territory which it is not currently servicing as of the date of execution of this Contract, as well as of territory it is not servicing in any future annexed areas as of the date of such annexation, except for territory acquired through mergers and/or acquisitions. Both parties agree that in the event the City should elect to acquire Contractor's rights of collection prior to the expiration of the ten (10) year period subsequent to annexation, the City will pay fair market value for the franchise, business or facilities acquired as outlined in RCW 35A.14.900. That payment shall satisfy any and all damages suffered or claims made by Contractor. Otherwise, nothing in this Contract is intended to preclude Contractor from reactivating its WUTC certificate rights should the City at any time cease to assert its control over the collection and/or disposal of Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials and/or Yard Waste. In such event, Contractor shall not be entitled to any damages or compensation from the City for loss of Service Areas should the WUTC not grant Contractor the Service Areas set forth in this Contract. SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL,RECYCLING AND PROCESSING CONTRACT-6 (Btwn.City of Kent and Kent-Meridian Disposal-February 15,2001) If, during the life of the Contract, additional territory is added to the City through annexation within which the Contractor does not have an existing WUTC certificate or other franchise for Solid Waste or other collections, in such event and upon notice from the City, Contractor agrees to make collections in such annexed areas in accordance with the provisions of this Contract at the unit price set forth in this Contract. The City acknowledges that equipment, such as trucks, carts, and containers may take time to procure for distribution and, therefore, shall not penalize the Contractor for delays in the provision of services to annexed areas covered by the paragraph, due to procurement delays that are not reasonably within the control of the Contractor. 2.5 Contractor to Make Examination. The Contractor shall undertake its own examination, investigation, and research regarding the proper method of doing the Work, and all conditions affecting the work to be done; the labor, equipment, and materials needed; and the quantity of the work to be performed. The Contractor agrees that it is satisfied by its investigation and research regarding all of such conditions, and that its conclusion to enter into this Contract is based upon such investigation and research, and that it shall make no claim against the City because of any of the estimates, statements, or interpretations made by any officer or agent of the City which may prove to be in any respect erroneous. The Contractor assumes the risk of all conditions foreseen or unforeseen and agrees to continue the work without additional compensation under whatever circumstances that may develop other than as herein provided. ARTICLE 3 Operations 3.1 Collection. 3.1.1 Route Map and Route Changes. For any residential collection work performed under this Contract, the Contractor shall show, on a map furnished to the Director, the day of the week when Solid Waste, Recyclables, and Yard Waste shall be collected from each area or route.

Residential pickups shall be made Monday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., unless otherwise approved by the City in writing. Commercial pickups may take place at any time deemed appropriate by Contractor so long as the Contractor's operation does not disturb Residential Areas; provided, however, the Director shall have authority to make final approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Director may reverse the decision with regard to the suitability of the collection hours at any time, and such decision shall take effect seven (7) days after written notice is sent to the Contractor. At a minimum, the Contractor shall make one Solid Waste collection per week from Residential Customers, unless otherwise approved by the Director, and shall maintain a regular schedule, as approved by the Director, for Recyclable Materials and Yard Waste collection from Residential Customers. Residential collection shall be at Curbside with the exception of Customers with physical disabilities as provided for in section 3.3.2. SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL,RECYCLING AND PROCESSING CONTRACT-7 (Btwn.City ojKent and Kent-Meridian Disposal-February 15,2001) Collection for Commercial Customers at buildings, places of business, or premises where Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste are accumulated or generated shall be made daily if necessary, but in no event less than once per month(Saturday and Sunday optional to Contractor), or as requested; provided, however, the Director shall have authority to make final approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Contractor shall comply with reasonable requirements of Customers with respect to security, location of containers and frequency of removal. 3.1.3 Collection at City-Owned Sites. The Contractor agrees to provide for the collection, removal, and disposal or processing of Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste from City-owned and occupied buildings used only for governmental purposes and from City parks within Contractor's Service Areas of the City. Such collection, removal and disposal or processing shall be without charge to the City,provided that the Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste are placed in containers conveniently located for collection. Appendix B lists current City-owned buildings and parks to which this section applies. The Contractor further agrees to service all City sidewalk containers in the Contractor's Service Areas as often as needed, and at least once a week. Appendix B includes a map with the locations of current City sidewalk containers. Additions, deletions or changes in collection from City-owned buildings, parks and sidewalk containers shall be subject to change as directed by the City. The Director may waive the requirements of this section under special circumstances. 3.1.4 Holiday Schedule. The Contractor shall designate the holidays to be observed under this Contract. The Contractor shall determine the schedule to be worked if the holiday falls on a regular collection day. The Contractor shall provide the City with notice in writing of the change in collection schedule at least thirty (30) days prior to the holiday. The Contractor shall arrange to have the schedule published in a newspaper of general circulation within the corporate limits of the City. Unless attributable to circumstances beyond Contractor's reasonable control, deviation from the published schedule shall be subject to liquidated damages provided in section 4.7.3. 3.1.5 Inclement Weather. When weather conditions are such that continued operation would result in danger to collection staff, area residents or equipment, the Contractor shall collect only in areas that do not pose a danger. The Contractor shall determine when inclement weather prevents the Contractor from providing service on a regularly scheduled collection day. The Contractor shall notify the City as soon as possible of the delay in the collection schedule and shall notify radio stations of the delay including, but not limited to, KIRO 710AM, KING 1090AM, and KOMO 1000AM. The Contractor shall also notify the City when collections can resume and shall make such notice prior to resuming collections. For Customers with weekly collection service, the Contractor shall then make collection on the next regularly scheduled collection day for the customer whose collection was missed. For Customers with collection services less frequent than weekly, Contractor shall make collection within one week of the missed scheduled collection date, unless otherwise approved by the Director. When service is resumed, the Contractor shall pick up additional Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials, and Yard Waste, up to the maximum volume the Customer would have left for collection during the interval when collections were missed, at no additional cost, and shall empty temporary receptacles, to the SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL,RECYCLING AND PROCESSING CONTRACT-8 (Btwn.
