proceedings of the COUNTY Board of Commissioners and the MUNICIPALITY's Governing Body and
also shall be filed with the Office of the Clerk for the COUNTY and the MUNICIPALITY. In addition, this
Agreement, and any subsequent amendments, shall be filed by a designated COUNTY AGENT(S) with
the Secretary of State for the State of Michigan and shall not become effective prior to the filing of this
Agreement with the Secretary of State.
13. In consideration of the COUNTY'S promises and efforts under this Agreement, the MUNICIPALITY
agrees to pay to the COUNTY $36,330.58 per month for service for the months of April 1, 2018 through
March 31, 2019; $37,418.21 per month for service for the months of April 1, 2019 through March 31,
2020; and $38,540.28 per month for service for the months of April 1, 2020 through March 31,2021 as
follows:
a. The COUNTY shall send an invoice to the MUNICIPALITY on the first calendar day of each
month for services rendered the previous month. The MUNICIPALITY shall have 30 days from
the date of each invoice to make payment. For example, for services rendered in July of 2019,
the COUNTY will bill the MUNICIPALITY on August 1,2019 and the MUNICIPALITY shall pay
the invoice within 30 days of the invoice date.
b. All Monthly payments shall be due and payable by the MUNICIPALITY without any further notice
or demand from the COUNTY.
c. Each monthly payment shall be made by a check drawn on a MUNICIPALITY account and shall
be made payable to the County of Oakland and delivered to the attention of: Mr. Andy Meisner,
Oakland County Treasurer, 1200 N. Telegraph Road, Pontiac, MI 48341-0479 (or such other
person as the COUNTY may from time to time designate in writing).
d. Each such payment shall clearly identify that it is a monthly payment being made pursuant to this
Agreement and identify the calendar month for which the MUNICIPALITY intended the payment
to apply. The MUNICIPALITY agrees that the COUNTY, in its discretion, may apply any monthly
payment received from the MUNICIPALITY to any past due amount or monthly payment then
due and owing to the COUNTY pursuant to this Agreement.
14. If the MUNICIPALITY fails, for any reason, to pay the COUNTY any moneys due when and as due under
this Agreement, the MUNICIPALITY agrees that unless expressly prohibited by law, the COUNTY or the
County Treasurer, at their sole option, shall be entitled to setoff from any other MUNICIPALITY funds that
are in the COUNTY'S possession for any reason. Funds include but are not limited to the Delinquent Tax
Revolving Fund (DTRF). Any setoff or retention of funds by the COUNTY shall be deemed a voluntary
assignment of the amount by the MUNICIPALITY to the COUNTY. The MUNICIPALITY waives any
CLAIMS against the COUNTY or its Officials for any acts related specifically to the COUNTY'S offsetting
or retaining such amounts. This paragraph shall not limit the MUNICIPALITY's legal right to dispute
whether the underlying amount retained by the COUNTY was actually due and owing under this
Agreement. If the COUNTY chooses not to exercise its right to setoff or if any setoff is insufficient to fully
pay the COUNTY any amounts due and owing the COUNTY under this Agreement, the county SHALL
HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHARGE UP TO THE THEN-MAXIMUM LEGAL INTEREST ON ANY UNPAID
AMOUNT. Interest charges shall be in addition to any other amounts due to the COUNTY under this
Agreement. Interest charges shall be calculated using the daily unpaid balance method and accumulate
until all outstanding amounts and accumulated interest are fully paid. Nothing in this paragraph shall
operate to limit the COUNTY'S right to pursue or exercise any other legal rights or remedies under this
Agreement against the MUNICIPALITY to secure reimbursement of amounts due the COUNTY under
this Agreement. The remedies in this paragraph shall be available to the COUNTY on an ongoing and
successive basis if the MUNICIPALITY at any time becomes delinquent in its payment. Notwithstanding
any other term and condition in this Agreement, if the COUNTY pursues any legal action in any court to
secure its payment under this Agreement, the MUNICIPALITY agrees to pay all costs and expenses,
including attorney's fees and court costs, incurred by the COUNTY in the collection of any amount owed
by the MUNICIPALITY.
15. The MUNICIPALITY agrees that all MUNICIPALITY representations, liabilities, payment obligations,
and/or any other related obligations provided for in this Agreement with regard to any acts, occurrences,
events, transactions, or CLAIM(S), either occurring or having their basis in any events or transactions that
occurred before the cancellation or expiration of this Agreement, shall survive the cancellation or

Agreement shall be without prejudice to any rights or claims of either party against the other and shall not
relieve either party of any obligations which, by their nature, survive expiration or termination of this
Agreement.
16. Each Party shall be responsible for any CLAIM made against that Party and for the acts of its Employees
or Agents.
17. In any CLAIM that may arise from the performance of this Agreement, each Party shall seek its own legal

18. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither Party shall have any right under any legal
principle to be indemnified by the other Party or any of its agents or employees in connection with any
CLAIM.
19. This Agreement does not, and is not intended to, impair, divest, delegate or contravene any
constitutional, statutory, and/or other legal right, privilege, power, obligation, duty, or immunity of the
Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver of governmental immunity for either
Party.
20. The MUNICIPALITY and the COUNTY agree that neither the COUNTY nor any COUNTY AGENT(S), by
virtue of this Agreement or otherwise, shall be considered or asserted to be employees of the
MUNICIPALITY and further agree that, at all times and for all purposes under the terms of this
Agreement, the COUNTY and/or any COUNTY AGENT(S) legal status and relationship to the

POLICE and FIRE PERSONNEL or any other MUNICIPALITY employee shall, by virtue of this
Agreement or otherwise, be considered or asserted to be an employee, agent, or working under the
supervision and control of the COUNTY and/or any COUNTY AGENT(S).
