City of Vernon, 4305 Santa Fe Avenue, Vernon, California 90058 – Telephone (323) 583-8811 Donation Agreement and Release
This Donation Agreement and Release (“Agreement”), conveying sixteen (16) Motor Drive Modules (the “Property”), is entered into between the City of Vernon’s Public Utilities Department (“Donor”) and the City of Roseville - Electric Utility (“Donee” and together with Donor, the “Parties”) with reference to the following:

Recitals
The City of Roseville - Electric Utility operates a similarly configured power plant in the City of Roseville, CA. These units also utilize the ABB ACS-600 Drive Modules, of which the City of Vernon recently updated during the Spring 2022 Outage.

After removal, the Vernon Finance Department has determined that these outdated drives are no longer useful to the City of Vernon and have limited use or value in today’s market, reducing the value of potential sale via public auction, sale, or bid. The City of Roseville - Electric Utility still operates similar modules and can utilize these as backup spare parts as needed.

Agreement

1. Donor shall convey the Property to Donee as soon as practicable upon full execution of the Agreement.

2. Conveyance of the Property shall be deemed to have occurred when Donee takes delivery thereof.

3. Donor does not warrant the Property to be fit for any particular purpose, and Donee accepts the Property “as is.”

4. Donee may inspect the Property at a time and place agreed upon by the Parties prior to delivery.

5. Upon delivery of the Property, Donor shall not be liable or in any other way responsible for any defects or for failure of the Property to perform its intended purpose. Nor shall Donor be liable or in any other way responsible for any loss, damage, or injury to third parties arising from or caused by defects in the Property or in any part thereof.

6. Donee shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Donor, its officers, directors, elected officials, agents, employees and attorneys from and against all claims, suits and damages asserted by Donee and/or any third party arising out of or in any way related to the ownership, conveyance or use of the Property.

7. Donee represents that the Property will only be used for the purpose(s) described in the Recital(s) above, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties.
