include existing housing assisted with project based assistance provided under Section 8 of the United State Housing

notice to the Contractor, suspend the Contract and withhold further payments or prohibit the Contractor from incurring

a) Termination Due to Loss of Funding. The parties hereto expressly recognize that the Contractor
is to be paid, reimbursed, or otherwise compensated with federal CDBG funds provided to the State for the purpose
of contracting for the services provided for herein or with program income, and therefore, the Contractor expressly
understands and agrees that all its rights, demands and claims to compensation arising under this Contract are
contingent upon receipt of such funds by the State. In the event that such funds or any part thereof are not received
by the State, the State may immediately terminate or amend this Contract.
b) Termination for Cause. In accordance with 24 CFR Part 85.44, suspension or termination may occur
if the Contractor materially fails to comply with any term of the Contract, or, in the State's discretion, the Contract may
be terminated for convenience. If, through any cause, the Contractor shall fail to fulfill in a timely and proper manner
its obligations under this Contract, or if the Contractor shall violate any of the covenants, agreements, or stipulations
of this Contract, the State shall thereupon have the right to terminate this Contract for cause by giving written notice

herein, the Contractor will be paid an amount which bears the same ratio to the total compensation as the services
actually performed bear to the total services of the Contractor covered by this Contract, less payments of
compensation previously made: Provided, however, that if less than sixty percent (60%) of the services covered by
this contract have been performed upon the effective date of such termination, the Contractor shall be reimbursed (in
addition to the above payment) for that portion of the actual out-of-pocket expenses (not otherwise reimbursed under
this Contract) incurred by the Contractor during the Contract period which are directly attributable to the uncompleted
portion of the services covered by this Contract If this Contract is terminated due to the fault of the Contractor,

of the above, has a financial or other interest in the party or firm selected for award. Officers, employees or
agents of the Contractor and its subcontractors shall neither solicit nor accept gratuities, favors or anything
of monetary value from parties or potential parties to contracts. Unsolicited items provided as gifts are not

b) In All Cases Other Than Procurement. In all cases other than procurement (including the
provision of housing rehabilitation assistance to individuals, the provision of assistance to businesses, and
the acquisition and disposition of real property), no persons described in subparagraph i) below who exercise
or have exercised any functions or responsibilities with respect to CDBG activities or who are in a position to

a personal or financial interest or benefit from the activity, or have an interest in any contract, subcontract or
Page 6 of 14 Pages
971291
agreement with respect thereto, or the proceeds thereunder, either for themselves or those with whom they
have family or business ties, during their tenure for one year thereafter.
i) Persons Covered. The conflict of interest provisions of this subparagraph b) apply to
any person who is an employee, agent, consultant, officer, or elected official or
appointed official of the Contractor or of any designated public agencies or
subcontractors receiving CDBG funds.
ii) Threshold Requirements for Exceotions. Upon the written request of the Contractor,
the State may grant an exception to the provisions of this subparagraph b) when it
determines that such an exception will serve to further the purposes of the CDBG
program and the effective and efficient administration of the Contractor's Project. An
exception may be considered only after the Contractor has provided the following:
a) A disclosure of the nature of the conflict, accompanied by an assurance that:
i. there has been or will be a public disclosure of the conflict and a description
of how the public disclosure was or will be made; and
11. the affected person has withdrawn from his or her functions or
responsibilities, or the decision -making process with respect to the specific
CDBG-assisted activity in question; and
b) An opinion of the Contractor's attorney that the interest for which the exception
is sought would not violate State or local law; and
c) A written statement signed by the chief elected official of the Contractor holding
the State harmless from all liability in connection with any exception which may
be granted by the State to the provisions of this subparagraph b);
iii) Factors to be Considered for Exceptions. In determining whether to grant a requested
exception after the Contractor has satisfactorily met the requirements of subparagraph
ii) above, the State shall consider the cumulative effect of the following factors, where
applicable:
a) Whether the exception would provide a significant cost benefit or an essential
degree of expertise to the Project which would otherwise not be available;
b) Whether an opportunity was provided for open competitive bidding or
negotiation;
c) Whether the person affected is a member of a group or class of low- or
moderate -income persons intended to be beneficiaries of the CDBG-assisted
activity, and the exception will permit such person to receive generally the same
benefits as are being made available or provided to the group or class;
d) Whether the interest or benefit was present before the affected person was in
a position as described in this subparagraph b);
e) Whether undue hardship will result either to the Contractor or the person
affected when weighted against the public interest served by avoiding the
prohibited conflict; and
f) Any other relevant considerations.
23. Compliance with Applicable Laws. At all times during the performance of this Contract, the
Contractor and any subcontractors shall strictly adhere to all applicable Federal and State laws, orders, and
