q0 • A Agreement, then County shall be entitled to immediately terminate this Agreement, without penalty or liability, except the payment of all contract fees due under this Agreement up to and through the last day of service. 6.3 Responsibility for Inmate Health Care Upon termination of this Agreement, all responsibility for providing health care services to all inmates, including inmates receiving health care services at sites outside the Jail, will be transferred from SHP to County. ARTICLE VII. COMPENSATION. 7.1 Base Compensation. County will pay to SHP the annualized base price of $169,800.00 during the initial term of this Agreement, payable in monthly installments. Monthly installments during the initial term will be in the amount of $14,150.00 each. SHP will bill County approximately 30 days prior to the month in which services are to be rendered. County agrees to pay SHP prior to the tenth day of the month in which services are rendered. In the event this Agreement should commence or terminate on a date other than the first or last day of any calendar month, compensation to SHP will • be pro-rated accordingly for the shortened month. 7.2 Increases and Decreases in Inmate Population County and SHP agree that the annual base price is calculated based upon an average daily inmate population of up to 125. If the average daily inmate population exceeds 125 inmates, then the compensation payable to SHP by County shall be increased by a per diem rate of $2.25 for each inmate over 125. The average daily inmate resident population shall be calculated by adding the population or head count totals taken at a consistent time each day and dividing by the number of counts taken. The excess over an average of 125, if any, will be multiplied by the per diem rate and by the number of days in the month to arrive at the increase in compensation payable to SHP for that month. In all cases where adjustments become necessary, the invoice adjustment will be made on the invoice for a subsequent month's services. For example, if there is an average population for any given month of 130 inmates, resulting in an excess of five (5) inmates, then SHP shall receive additional compensation of five (5) times the per diem rate times the number of days in that month. The resulting amount will be an addition to the regular base fee and will be billed on a subsequent monthly invoice. This per- diem is intended to cover additional cost in those instances where minor, short-term changes in the inmate population result in the higher utilization of routine supplies and services. However, the per diem is not intended to provide for any • additional fixed costs, such as new fixed staffing positions that might prove necessary if the inmate population grows significantly and if the population increase is sustained. In such cases, SHP reserves the right to negotiate for an increase to its staffing complement and its contract price in order to continue to provide services to the
