The City and/or the Contractor may suspend or terminate this <br />Agreement, in whole or in part, and all or any part of the financial assistance provided herein, at <br />any time by written notice to the other Party. The City and the Contractor shall agree upon the <br />Agreement termination provisions including but not limited to the settlement terms, conditions, and <br />in the case of partial termination the portion to be terminated. However if, in the case of partial <br />termination, the City determines that the remaining portion of the award will not accomplish the <br />purposes for which the award was made, the City may terminate the award in its entirety. The <br />Parties may terminate this Agreement for convenience for reasons including, but not limited to, the <br />following: <br />1. The requisite funding becomes unavailable through failure of appropriation or otherwise; <br />2. The City determines, in its sole discretion, that the continuation of the Project would not <br />produce beneficial results commensurate with the further expenditure of funds; <br />3. The Contractor is prevented from proceeding with the Project as a direct result of an <br />Executive Order of the President with respect to the prosecution of war or in the interest of <br />Inational defense; or an Executive Order of the President or Governor of the State with <br />respect to the preservation of energy resources; <br />4. The Contractor is prevented from proceeding with the Project by reason of a temporary <br />preliminary, special, or permanent restraining order or injunction of a court of competent <br />jurisdiction where the issuance of such order or injunction is primarily caused by the acts or <br />omissions of persons or agencies other than the Contractor; or <br />5. The State Government determines that the purposes of the statute authorizing the Project <br />would not be adequately served by the continuation of financial assistance for the Project; <br />6. In the case of termination for convenience under subsections A. 1-5 above, the City shall <br />reimburse the Contractor for all costs payable under this Agreement that the Contractor <br />properly incurred prior to termination. The Contractor shall promptly submit its claim for <br />reimbursement to the City. If the Contractor has any property in its possession belonging to <br />the City, the Contractor will account for the same, and dispose of it in the manner the City <br />directs. <br />B. Termination for Default. The City may suspend or terminate this Agreement for default, in whole <br />or in part, and all or any part of the financial assistance provided herein, at any time by written <br />notice to the Contractor, if the Contractor materially breaches or fails to perform any of the <br />requirements of this Agreement, including: <br />1. Takes any action pertaining to this Agreement without the approval of the City, which under <br />the procedures of this Agreement would have required the approval of the City; <br />2. Jeopardizes its ability to perform pursuant to this Agreement, United States of America laws, <br />Washington state laws, or local governmental laws under which the Contractor operates; <br />3. Fails to make reasonable progress on the Project or other violation of this Agreement that <br />endangers substantial performance of the Project; or <br />4. Fails to perform in the manner called for in this Agreement or fails, to comply with, or is in <br />violation of, any provision of this Agreement. The City shall serve a notice of termination on <br />the Contractor setting forth the manner in which the Contractor is in default hereunder. If it <br />is later determined by the City that the Contractor had an excusable reason for not <br />performing, such as events which are not the fault of or are beyond the control of the <br />Contractor, such as a strike, fire or flood, the City may: (a) allow the Contractor to continue <br />work after setting up a new delivery of performance schedule, or (b) treat the termination <br />as a termination for convenience. <br />C. The City, in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow the <br />Contractor ten (10) business days, or such longer period as determined by the City, in which to <br />cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which cure is <br />Page 7 of 11 <br />82 <br />
