PART 5-TERMINATION

The State may terminate this Agreement at any time the State determines that the purposes of the
distribution of State or Federal moneys under the Agreement would no longer be served by
completion of the project. The State shall effect such termination by giving written notice of
termination to the Grantee and specifying the effective date thereof, at least twenty (20) days
before the effective date of such termination. In that event, all finished or unfinished documents,
data, studies, surveys, drawings, maps, models, photographs, and reports or other material
prepared by the Grantee under this Agreement shall, at the option of the State, become its
property, and the Grantee shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any
satisfactory services and supplies delivered.
If the Agreement is terminated by the State as provided herein, the Grantee will be paid an
amount which bears the same ratio to the total compensation as the services satisfactorily
performed bear to the total services of the Grantee covered by this Agreement, less payments of
compensation previously made,provided,however, that if less than sixty percent(60%)of the
services covered by this Agreement have been performed upon the effective date of such
termination,the Grantee shall be reimbursed(in addition to the above payment) for that portion of
the actual out-of-pocket expenses(not otherwise reimbursed under this Agreement)incurred by
the Grantee during the Agreement period which are directly attributable to the uncompleted
portion of the services covered by this Agreement. In no event shall reimbursement under this
clause exceed the Agreement amount. If this Agreement is terminated for cause, or due to the
fault of the Grantee, the Termination for Cause or Default provision shall apply.
5.2 Termination for Default(Cause):
If, through any cause, the Grantee shall fail to fulfill, in a timely and proper manner, its
obligations under this Agreement, or if the Grantee shall violate any of the covenants,
Agreements, or stipulations of this Agreement, the State shall thereupon have the right to
terminate this Agreement for cause by giving written notice to the Grantee of its intent to
terminate and at least ten(10) days opportunity to cure the default or show cause why termination
is otherwise not appropriate. In the event of termination, all finished or unfinished documents,
data, studies, surveys, drawings, maps, models, photographs, and reports or other material
prepared by the Grantee under this Agreement shall, at the option of the State, become its
property, and the Grantee shall be entitled to receive just and equitable compensation for any
services and supplies delivered and accepted. The Grantee shall be obligated to return any
payment advanced under the provisions of this Agreement.
Notwithstanding the above, the Grantee shall not be relieved of liability to the State for any
damages sustained by the State by virtue of any breach of the Agreement by the Grantee, and the
State may withhold any payment to the Grantee for the purposes of mitigating its damages until
such time as the exact amount of damages due to the State from the Grantee is determined.
If after such termination it is determined, for any reason, that the Grantee was not in default,or
that the Grantee's action/inaction was excusable, such termination shall be treated as a
termination for convenience, and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if
Page 14 of 22

the Agreement had been terminated for convenience, as described herein.

in this Agreement, or by law, the State may exercise the following remedial actions if the Grantee
substantially fails to satisfy or perform its duties or obligations under this Agreement.

actions are satisfactorily completed by the Grantee.
C. Deny payment for those services or obligations of the Grantee which have not yet been
performed and which, due to circumstances caused by the Grantee, cannot be performed,
or if performed, would be of no value to the State. Denial of payment must be reasonably
related to the amount of services or performance lost to the State because of the Grantee's
actions.
D. Terminate this Agreement as set forth in the Termination for Default paragraph of this
Agreement but without further liability to the State,including,but not limited to, liability
for termination costs.
5.4 Termination Due To Modification in Funding: In the event this Agreement is modified pursuant to
the conditions identified in Sections 1.6 or 2.6 of this Agreement, and the modification causes a
substantial reduction of funding so that the Grantee determines they can no longer perform the
services and obligations required under this Agreement, then the Grantee may terminate this
Agreement. Termination notice by the Grantee shall be provided as defined in paragraph 6.11 of this
Agreement and submitted to the State ninety(90)days in advance of the effective date of termination.
The State, after receipt of the termination notice and prior to the effective date of the termination,
