with its terms, and fails to cure or show cause why such failure to perform should be excused with/n

Agreement in accordance with its terms if such failure arises out of causes beyond the control and
without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Such causes may include, but are not restricted to,
acts of God, natural disasters, strikes, or freight embargoes, but in every case the failure to perform
must be beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Upon request of
the Contractor, the County shall ascertain the facts and failure, and, if the County shall determine that

termination is in its best interest and convenience.

work terminated by the notice of termination.

claims arising out of such termination on orders or subcontracts, the cost of which would be
compensable or reimbursable in whole or in part in accordance with this Agreement.
D. Termination Payment. After the effective date of a notice of termination for the
convenience of the County, the Contractor shall submit to the County his termination claim in the
form of a final invoice in accordance with the provisions in "Method of Payment," including costs
incurred to the date of termination, and costs incurred because of termination, which termination
costs shall not exceed 10% of the total amount of proposal; provided, however, that in the event of
default by the Contractor, no extra costs incurred because of termination shall be paid to the
Contractor and any costs paid shall not be a waiver of any claim, counterclaim or set-off by the
County against the Contractor on account of any default. Such claim must be submitted promptly,
but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the effective date of termination, unless one or more
extensions are granted in writing by the County. Upon the Contractor's failure to submit a claim in
the time allowed, the County may review the information available to it and determine the amount
due the Contractor, if any, and pay the Contractor the amount as determined.

the County under" Termination for Default or for Convenience of County;" except that if the
Contractor has failed to submit his claim within the time provided in paragraph 4.D., above, and has

County has made a determination of the amount due under Paragraphs 4.D. or 4.E., above, the
County shall pay the Contractor: (1) the amount the County has determined if them is no right to
appeal or if no timely appeal has been taken, or (2) the amount finally determined on such appeal if
an appeal has been taken.

Paragraphs 4.D. or 4.E., he can appeal this decision in writing to the County. Such appeal must be
made within twenty (20) days of receipt in writing of the County's determination. The County shall
have twenty (20) days in which to respond in writing to the appeal. The County's response shall be
final and conclusive unless within thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of such response the
Contractor submits the dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction or submits a demand for
arbitration if required by the Contract Documents.
