<br />13. CONFLICT OF INTEREST CLAUSE
<br />
<br />a. ImmDef covenants that it presently has no interests and shall not have interests, direct
<br />or indirect, which would conflict in any manner with performance of services

<br />appointed City Official, including appointed board and commission members, as
<br />defined under the City’s Municipal Code, whose position with the City shall award or

<br />thereof, shall be employed in any capacity by ImmDef or have any other direct or
<br />indirect financial benefit or interest in this Agreement.
<br />
<br />c. The section also prohibits the awarding of any agreement, contract, grant, or any
