Product substantially follow the guidelines, instructions , recommendations and best practices
published and/or provided by PMI. The City hereby grants PMI and its representatives, in

instructions and recommend corrective actions to the City and any person installing the
Product on all applications of the Product, including, without limitation, compliance with
the guidelines and best practices for the application of the Product. The granting of this right
to PMI and its representatives does not impose any additional duty on PMI or its
representatives in addition to those duties outlined in this Agreement.
b. Should the Product Fail, PMI shall, at its election, and within thirty (30) days
after determination of Failure, either repair or pay for the material cost of the Product to repair
those areas of the Product covered by this warranty that Fail during its Useful Life, as well as for
9
labor and other incidental costs (hereinafter, "Labor and Incidental Costs"), including, but not
limited to, any affected striping, markings, and reflective pavement markers; provided, however,
that such Failure shall occur within one (1) year from the date of Product application. For any
Failure that occurs thereafter but during the Useful Life, PMI shall only be responsible for
the repair or payment for the material cost of the Product, which shall also occur within
thirty (30) days after determination of Product Failure. For purposes of this Agreement,
whether the Product has Failed must be evaluated using the Slurry Seal Survey Procedures
set forth in Exhibit "D" ("SSSP"), attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
The term "Fail," "Fails," "Failure" or "Failed" shall mean that, prior to the expiration of
the Useful Life, more than ten percent (10%) of the native asphalt for any street segment
(as defined in Exhibit "D") becomes uncovered (i.e., no longer covered by the Product), and
such uncovering does not arise out of conditions outside of PMI's control, including, but not
limited to, subgrade conditions, improper subbase and/or compaction, cracks, earthquakes,
over watering, frequent sprinkler overspray, standing or ponding water, heavy truck or

the repair itself, then PMI shall pay one hundred percent (100%) of the Product material cost
for the percentage of "Failed" square footage, and for any related Labor and Incidental
Costs to the extent there may be any Labor and Incidental Costs during the first year of the
Product's Useful Life. If Steve Marvin or Steve Escobar are unavailable to make the
determination of whether the Product "Failed," an independent engineer approved by both the
City and PMI with qualifications and experience as extensive as Steve Marvin's or Steve
Escobar's shall be used. This warranty only applies to the Project that is the subject of this
Agreement and no other location. If the evaluator concludes the Product Failed, PMI will
bear the cost of the evaluation. If the evaluator concludes the Product did not Fail, the City
will bear the cost of the evaluation.

of any problems, defects or perceived Failures of the Product within thirty (30) days of the
City's discovery of the problem, defect or perceived Failure. PMI shall be given the
opportunity to inspect, investigate, test, repair and remediate any alleged problems, defects or
failures in connection with the Product prior to any repair by the City, and, repair without
notice shall void and waive this warranty. Inspection, investigation, testing, repair and
remediation by PMI shall not operate as an admission of liability by PMI.

forth herein fails of its essential purpose, in no event shall PMI be liable to City for any
special, consequential, incidental, exemplary, punitive, indirect or similar damages, including
loss of profits, loss of use, or personal injury, in connection with any Failed Product, even

SLURRY SEAL SURVEY PROCEDURES
TO
DETERMINE THE PERCENTAGE OF FAILED SLURRY SEAL
ON
STREET SEGMENTS UP TO FIVE(5)YEARS IN AGE
When conducting the survey the following information shall be collected for each street
segment:
INFORMATION
1) Name,;limits of street surveyed
2) Date of survey
3) Time of day surveyed
4) Weather conditions
5) Remarks
6) Percent of slurry seal remaining
DEFINITION OF TERMS
Street Segment- the asphalt concrete portion of a street measured from the centerline of the
adjacent cross street running longitudinally down the street to the centerline of the next
adjacent cross street. Cul-de-sac or dead end street segments shall begin at a line running
transversely to the center line of the dead end street from the outer edge of the Portland
Cement Concrete (PCC) gutter on one side of the street to the outer edge of the PCC gutter
on the opposite side of the street and running longitudinally down the street until the end of
the asphalt concrete portion of the street. In the case of no PCC gutters the segment shall
begin at a line running transversely to the centerline of the dead end street from the face
of the curb on one side to the face of the curb on the opposite side of the street.
TEST METHODS
The assessment of the area of slurry seal remaining in a specified street segment shall be
made initially'through a visual windshield inspection by driving a vehicle up one side of the
street and down the other side. The segment shall be then visually inspected on foot up one
side of the street and down the other side. The total length and width of each street
segment shall; be determined using a rolo tape. All changes in segment width, utility cuts,
street improvements, and repairs shall be measured with a rolo tape and the area subtracted
from the total area of the segment. The measurement of areas within the segment that appear
to not have slurry seal remaining or a complex pattern of areas with and without slurry seal
remaining shall be made with a rolo tape using two methodologies. Method A for areas
with simple patterns and Method B for complex patterns and shapes.
TOOLS
1
1) Notebook and pencil
2) Rolo Tape Measuring Wheel (RTMW)for lineal feet
3) 1'Xl'Cardboard Square
4) Can of white marking paint
5) Pocketknife
6) 12-inch Ruler
7) Black felt tip pen
Method A
Areas in all street segments that appear to not have slurry seal remaining in simple relatively
easily defined shapes shall have the length and width of the shape measured with a rolo tape and
the square footage subtracted from the total street segment square footage.
Method 8
Areas in all street segments that appear to not have slurry seal remaining in complex patterns
and relatively difficult to define shapes shall have the length and width of the shape measured
with a rolo tape. Within the defined shape a representative one foot square box shall be
created using a piece of cardboard, one (1) foot by one (1) foot, placed directly on the street
and the outline of the box transferred to the surface of the street using a can of white marking
paint. Within the box all areas without slurry seal remaining shall be measured with a 12-inch
ruler. These measurements shall be added together and a percentage of slurry seal not
remaining in the box shall be calculated and that percentage applied to the square footage of the
entire shape. The shapes total square footage of slurry seal not remaining on the street shall be
subtracted from the total street segment square footage.
The majority of complex patterns of areas with and without slurry seal shall include the tops of
all aggregates; in the asphalt concrete without slurry seal and the areas between the larger
aggregate having slurry seal. To determine the percentage of area within the box that did not
have slurry 'seal, every aggregate top without slurry seal within the square shall be
measured, marking each counted aggregate top with a black felt tip marking pen, summing
the total square inch area without slurry seal and dividing that figure by 144 square inches to
determine the 1 total percentage of area without slurry seal within one (1) square foot. The total
percentage of area without slurry seal within one (1) square foot shall be multiplied by the total
area of complex shapes and divided by 100 to determine the number of square feet without
slurry seal within the shape. The total square feet without slurry seal for all shapes shall be
deducted from the total square feet of each street segment to determine the percentage of slurry
seal remaining within each street segment.
