CITY OF CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA

CHARLOTTE DOUGLAS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

JANITORIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT

This JANITORIAL SERVICES AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) by and between the CITY OF CHARLOTTE, a

municipal corporation of the State of North Carolina (“City”), and [Company Name & Description],

organized and existing under the laws of the State of [State] and authorized to do business in the State of

North Carolina (“Company”)(collectively the “Parties”).

WITNESSETH

THAT, WHEREAS, the City owns and operates Charlotte Douglas International Airport (“Airport”) in

Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and has the authority to grant rights and privileges relating thereto;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Request for Proposals (“RFP”) dated September 4, 2014, the City solicited

proposals from firms qualified to and interested in providing janitorial services at the Airport (the

“Services”) and Company made a qualifying proposal; and

WHEREAS, the City wishes and the Company desires to provide the Services.

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, the

City and Company agree as follows:

Article I

Janitorial Services

The Company shall do all usual and customary things necessary to manage and operate the

Services in a responsible and complete manner, as set forth herein and in accordance with the

terms and conditions of this Agreement twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, three

hundred and sixty-five days a year. The Company shall use its best efforts to provide the Services

in a manner so as to maximize cleanliness and minimize costs through a high degree of service and

operating efficiency. The Company shall be responsible for providing all equipment, chemicals,

supplies, tools, apparatus and other property used in performing the Services. It is understood

between the parties that the prime purpose of the Services performed under this Agreement is

that the premises shall be kept clean, according to reasonable and accepted standards, as defined

by the City and in the manner set forth in Exhibit B.

Article II

Effective Date and Term

The initial term of the Agreement shall be three (3) years (“Term”), beginning on February 1, 2015

(“Effective Date”) and expiring on January 31, 2018. Additionally, the City may exercise two (2)

options to renew for additional one (1) year terms, subject to Company’s consent. Each contract

year will run from February 1st through January 31st the following year (“Service Year”).

Contract No.

Article III

Premises

3.1 Assigned Area. The assigned area of this Agreement shall mean certain areas as defined by

Exhibit B within the land and buildings of the Airport (“Assigned Area”).

3.2 Ingress and Egress. Company will have the non-exclusive right, in common with other Airport

tenants and the general public, for ingress and egress to the Airport and the Assigned Area.

3.3 Office and Storage Space. The City shall provide storage space for equipment and supplies, and

office and break room space at the Airport at no cost to the Company. The City reserves the right

to change the locations of these spaces when necessary in its sole discretion.

Article IV

Compensation

4.1 Management Fee. The Management Fee for the provision of the Services will be $[Insert

Amount] per Service Year. The Management Fee is an annual obligation that will be paid in

twenty-six equal installments, as stated in Section 4.4 below. The Management Fee will be paid

based on the actual man hours worked divided by the man hours specified by Exhibit A

(“Agreement Man Hours”) times the Management Fee Hourly Rate in Exhibit A. However at no

point will the Management Fee equal more than the Management Fee Hourly Rate times the

Agreement Man Hours. Hours worked for the purpose of corrective action or for any other

reason that exceed the scheduled hours shall not be included in the Management Fee calculation.

4.2 Reimbursable Expenses. The City shall reimburse the Company for approved expenses as set

forth in Exhibit A for the first Service Year, and as stated in the approved annual budget for each

of the following Service Years. The Company shall provide the City a report monthly for such

expenses as required by the Monthly Expense and Revenue Statement in Section 5.2 below.

4.3 Payments to the Company. For performance of the Agreement in strict accordance with the

specifications, the City shall pay the Company every other week as specified herein for work

acceptably completed during that period at the rates set forth in Exhibit A. Acceptability of the

work shall be determined solely by the City. Company shall submit invoices for each pay period

within 5 business days of the end of each period. Expenses related to expendable supplies shall

be based on the passenger count in Exhibit A but such payments will be reconciled to match the

actual passenger counts for that pay period. Reconciliation will occur upon the Airport’s receipt of

the passenger count monthly report. Where such reconciliation results in the a change in

payment, the party owed the additional funds must invoice the other. The Airport shall have the

right, at any time during the term of the Agreement, to withhold from the Company any payments

otherwise due and payable as deemed necessary or desirable to protect the City against partial or

total failure of the Company to employ the number of personnel set forth in the Agreement or

subsequent amendments or if Company fails to complete all the required Services. This right may

be exercised by the Airport with or without revoking or terminating the Agreement, and such

withholding shall not be deemed a breach of the Agreement by the City. The City shall remit

payment within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice, however absent prior written approval;

no reimbursable expense will be paid where the total monthly expenses exceed the annual

budget amount for that month by more than five percent (5%).

4.4 Annual Budget. No later than January 5th , prior to the start of each Service Year, the Company

shall provide to the City an annual budget in a form substantially similar to the budget included in

Exhibit A outlining the upcoming Service Year’s Reimbursable Expenses. The approved annual

Contract No.

6

budget may be increased or decreased by the City from time to time, but only if and to extent the

City, in its sole discretion, deems such revisions necessary and appropriate under this Agreement.

4.5 Annual True-Up. Within thirty (30) days of the end of each Service Year the Company shall pay the

City the amount, if any, by which the actual Reimbursable Expenses were less than the amount of

Reimbursable Expenses stated in the annual budget. In the sole discretion of the City, such

payment may be made by either a credit to the next Service Year’s Reimbursable Expenses or by

direct payment by the Company.

4.6 Additional Rents and Fees. If City has paid any sum or sums or has incurred any obligation or

expense for which Company has agreed in writing to pay or reimburse City, or if City is required or

elects to pay any sum or sums or insure any obligations or expenses by reason of the failure,

neglect, or refusal of Company to perform or fulfill any one or more of the conditions, covenants

or undertakings contained in this Agreement, Company agrees to pay such sums or expenses,

of any existing or future agreement between the City and the United States relative to the

operation or maintenance of the Airport, the execution of which has been or may be required by

the provisions of the Federal Airport Act of 1946, as amended, or any future act affecting the

operation or maintenance of the Airport; provided, however, that City will endeavor to cause any

such agreement to include provisions protecting and preserving the rights of Company, and its

sub-contractors, as applicable, in and to the Assigned Locations and improvements thereon.

said breach within thirty (30) days of written notice thereof, terminate this Agreement upon ten

(10) days written notice; provided, however, if Company and/or such sub-contractors, as

States, or any instrumentality thereof having authority to do so, require that any provision of this

Agreement that is in violation of any federal law or regulation or any provision of an existing grant

agreement between City and the United States or any instrumentality thereof be changed or

deleted or should any such change or deletion be required in order for the Airport either to

continue as part of the National Airport Plan or to retain its eligibility to participate in Airport

Improvement Program and similar successor federal financial assistance programs, City may give

Company notice that it elects that any such change or deletion be made. Company shall then elect

either to consent to any such change or deletion or to cancel the remaining term of this

the date City gave Company notice of its election that any such change or deletion be made.

form of which shall be furnished to the City for approval prior to any execution thereof. Any

instrument by which Company shall be permitted to subcontract the rights hereunder to a sub-
