8 Nexus and the County, which is County Agreement Number A-24-373 ("Agreement"), for the
9 provision of interns to various County departments.
10 B. The County and Contractor now wish to amend the Agreement, to remove the two-
11 intern-per-cohort limit, and to provide for the County's payment of$4,000 per intern, to partially
12 offset the cost for Career Nexus to provide the County with the interns.
13 The parties therefore agree as follows:
14 1. The Section of the Agreement entitled "COUNTY SHALL, WITH RESPECT TO
15 CAREER NEXUS" is amended only to delete the following language: "Have a maximum of two
16 interns per cohort (monthly group, approximately 30, of interns). A new cohort will not begin until
17 all interns have completed their cohort."
18 2. The Section of the Agreement entitled "FINANCIAL AGREEMENT: is deleted in its
entirety and replaced with the following language::
19 "Sponsorship Cost Policy:
20 The services cost for each internship is $4,000.
21 • CN shall invoice the County upon completion of each internship (typically 200
22 hours).
• Any additional activities, resources and services provided by both parties shall be
23 at no cost to the other.
24 • Any expenses incurred by either party in the performance, delivery, or execution
of the terms of this Agreement shall be sole responsibility of the encumbering
25 party.
26 • Any overtime pays or other additional pay beyond the scope of this agreement
will be paid by the County.
27 Financial Liability:
28 Each party holds the other free of any additional financial commitment through
the fulfillment of the terms of this Agreement."
