INSURANCE
Throughout the tens of this Agreement, CDLS will obtain and maintain comprehensive general
liability insurance coverage in an amount ofnot less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000.00) per
claim. CDLS additionally agrees to name the City as an additional insured on the policy.
FEES AND TAXES
The City is exempt from paying any applicable taxes by virtue of its status as a home rule unit of
local government.
SHOW SAFETY, WEATHER, GPS, AND COMMUNICATION
The Pilot in Command (PIC) is the ultimate authority regarding fight safety. CDLS will only
operate a show under safe conditions. Shows cannot be operated in precipitation or winds in excess
of 23 miles per hour. Occasionally, drone sensors detect abnormalities and for safety reasons the
right controller may instruct affected drones to land or not take of. It is possible that all drones may
not participate in a show. CDLS supplies spare drones in order to maximize the number of drones
available for flight.
A stable electromagnetic environment is critical to successful Drone Show operation. Show
operations require a strong and clear GPS signal, a clear radio communication frequency (902-
928MHz in North America), and no magnetic field anomalies. Without them, the Drone Show will
be canceled.
PANDEMIC CANCELLATION
Should government imposed pandemic restrictions result in cancellation of the Drone Show, CDLS
will work with Customer to reschedule the Drone Show to a mutually acceptable date. There will
be no extra charge except for any additional direct expenses (travel, freight, etc) incurred by CDLS
due to the change in Show Date.
WEATHER CANCELLATION
Should adverse weather conditions result in cancellation of the Drone Show, Customer has the
option to either 1) receive a 50% refund (excluding freight, travel, professional services incurred)
or 2) reschedule the Drone Show to a mutually acceptable date. For rescheduling occurring prior
to either equipment or personnel departing for the Drone Show, Customer pays for any additional
direct expenses (travel, etc) incurred by CDLS. Otherwise, Customer pays for additional direct
expenses and a 20% rescheduling fee at least 30 days prior to the new Show Date. Rescheduled
shows must occur within one year of original Show Date.
CHOICE OF LAW
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Illinois. Venue for the resolution of any disputes or enforcement of any rights arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement shall be in the Circuit Court of Kane County, Illinois. CLDS
hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Kane County, Illinois for the
enforcement of any rights, the resolution of any disputes and/or for the purposes of any lawsuit
brought pursuant to this Agreement or the subject matter hereof; and Consultant agrees that service
by first class U.S. mail to 3999 E. Hupp Road, Bldg R-3-1, La Porte, IN 46350 shall constitute
effective service. Both Parties hereto waive any rights to a jury.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement contains the entire understanding and agreements between the parties hereto
respecting the subject matter, and there are no representations, agreements, arrangements, or
understandings, oral or written, between and among the parties hereto relating to the subject matter
outside of this Agreement.
