For contracts involving the expenditure of federal funds, the Provider is obligated to comply with the following federal laws, rules, and orders: A. Equal Employment Opportunity. For Agreements that meet the definition of “federally assisted construction contract” in 41 C.F.R. § 60-1.3, during the performance of the Agreement the Provider agrees as follows: 1. The Provider will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. The Provider will take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment without regard to their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. Such action shall include but not be limited to the following: Employment, upgrading, demotion, or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. The Provider agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. 2. The Provider will, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees placed by or on behalf of Provider, state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin. 3. The Provider will not discharge or in any other manner discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because such employee or applicant has inquired about, discussed, or disclosed the compensation of the employee or applicant or another employee or applicant. This provision shall not apply to instances in which an employee who has access to the compensation information of other employees or applicants as part of such employee’s essential job functions discloses the compensation of such other employees or applicants to individuals who do not otherwise have access to such information, unless such disclosure is in response to a formal complaint or charge, in furtherance of an investigation, proceeding, hearing, or action, including an investigation conducted by the employer, or is consistent with the Provider’s legal duty to furnish information. DocuSign Envelope ID: 525A8B6B-84A9-4382-81AD-B52736EB0728 ARPA Sourced 01/22 4. The Provider will send to each labor union or representative of workers with which it has a collective bargaining agreement or other contract or understanding, a notice to be provided advising the said labor union or workers’ representatives of the contractor’s commitments under this section, and shall post copies of the notice in conspicuous places available to employees and applicants for employment. 5. The Provider will comply with all provisions of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and of the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor. 6. The Provider will furnish all information and reports required by Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and by rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor, or pursuant thereto, and will permit access to its books, records, and accounts by the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor for purposes of investigation to ascertain compliance with such rules, regulations, and orders. 7. In the event of the Provider’s noncompliance with the nondiscrimination clauses of the Agreement and this Addendum or with any of the said rules, regulations, or orders, the Agreement may be cancelled, terminated, or suspended in whole or in part and the Provider may be declared ineligible for further Government contracts or federally assisted construction contracts in accordance with procedures authorized in Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, and such other sanctions may be imposed and remedies invoked as provided in Executive Order 1126 of September 24, 1965, or by rule, regulation, or order of the Secretary of Labor, or as otherwise provided by law. 8. The Provider will include the portion of the sentence immediately preceding Paragraph (A)(1) and the provisions of Paragraphs (A)(1) – (8) in every subcontract or purchase order unless exempted by rules, regulations, or orders of the Secretary of Labor issued pursuant to Section 204 of Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, so that such provisions will be binding upon each subcontractor or vendor. The Provider will take such action with respect to any subcontractor or purchase order as the administering agency may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions, including sanctions for noncompliance: Provided, however, that in the event Provider becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or vendor as a result of such direction by the administering agency, the Provider may request the United States enter into such litigation to protect the United States. Orange County further agrees that it will be bound by the above equal opportunity clause with respect to its own employment practices when it participates in federally assisted construction work: Provided, that Orange County is a local government, therefore the above equal opportunity clause is not applicable to any agency, instrumentality, or subdivision of Orange County which does not participate in work on or under the contract. DocuSign Envelope ID: 525A8B6B-84A9-4382-81AD-B52736EB0728 ARPA Sourced 01/22 Orange County agrees that it will assist and cooperate actively with the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor in obtaining the compliance of contractors and subcontractors with the equal opportunity clause and the rules, regulations, and relevant orders of the Secretary of Labor, that it will furnish the administering agency and the Secretary of Labor such information as they may require for the supervision of such compliance, and that it will otherwise assist the administering agency in the discharge of the agency’s primary responsibility for ensuring compliance. Orange County further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive Order. In addition, the Orange County that if it fails or refuses to comply with these undertakings, the administering agency may take any or all of the following actions: Cancel, termination, or suspend in whole or in part this grant (contract, loan, insurance, guarantee); refrain from extending any further assistance to Orange County under the program with respect to which the failure or refund occurred until satisfactory assurances of future compliance has been received from such applicant; and refer the case to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal proceedings.

A breach of the requirements of this DocuSign Envelope ID: 525A8B6B-84A9-4382-81AD-B52736EB0728 ARPA Sourced 01/22 provision may be grounds for termination of the contract, and for debarment as a contractor and subcontractor as provided in 29 C.F.R. § 5.12. D. Contract Work Hours and Safety Standards Act (40 U.S.C. 3701-3708).
