including loss as a result of outstanding liens or claims of former lien holders, or to reimburse the <br />State for the excess costs incurred in procuring similar goods or services. Grantee shall be liable for <br />excess costs incurred by the State in procuring from third parties replacement Work, Services or <br />substitute Goods as cover. <br />B. Early Termination in the Public Interest <br />The State is entering into this Grant for the purpose of carrying out the public policy of the State of <br />Colorado, as determined by its Governor, General Assembly, and/or Courts. If this Grant ceases to further <br />the public policy of the State, the State, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Grant in whole or in part. <br />Exercise by the State of this right shall not constitute a breach of the State's obligations hereunder. This <br />subsection shall not apply to a termination of this Grant by the State for cause or breach by Grantee, which <br />shall be governed by §15(A) or as otherwise specifically provided for herein. <br />i. Method and Content <br />The State shall notify Grantee of such termination in accordance with §16. The notice shall specify the <br />effective date of the termination and whether it affects all or a portion of this Grant. <br />ii. Obligations and Rights <br />Upon receipt of a termination notice, Grantee shall be subject to and comply with the same obligations <br />and rights set forth in §15(A)(i). <br />iii. Payments <br />If this Grant is terminated by the State pursuant to this §15(B), Grantee shall be paid an amount which <br />bears the same ratio to the total reimbursement under this Grant as the Services satisfactorily <br />performed bear to the total Services covered by this Grant, less payments previously made. <br />Additionally, if this Grant is less than 60% completed, the State may reimburse Grantee for a portion <br />of actual out-of-pocket expenses (not otherwise reimbursed under this Grant) incurred by Grantee <br />which are directly attributable to the uncompleted portion of Grantee's obligations hereunder; <br />provided that the sum of any and all reimbursement shall not exceed the maximum amount payable to <br />Grantee hereunder. <br />C. Remedies Not Involving Termination <br />The State, at its sole discretion, may exercise one or more of the following remedies in addition to other <br />remedies available to it: <br />i. Suspend Performance <br />Suspend Grantee's performance with respect to all or any portion of this Grant pending necessary <br />corrective action as specified by the State without entitling Grantee to an adjustment in price/cost or <br />performance schedule. Grantee shall promptly cease performance and incurring costs in accordance <br />with the State's directive and the State shall not be liable for costs incurred by Grantee after the <br />suspension of performance under this provision. <br />ii. Withhold Payment <br />Withhold payment to Grantee until corrections in Grantee's performance are satisfactorily made and <br />completed. <br />iii. Deny Payment <br />Deny payment for those obligations not performed, that due to Grantee's actions or inactions, cannot <br />be performed or, if performed, would be of no value to the State; provided, that any denial of payment <br />shall be reasonably related to the value to the State of the obligations not performed. <br />iv. Removal <br />Demand removal of any of Grantee's employees, agents, or Sub -grantees whom the State deems <br />incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise unacceptable, or whose continued <br />relation to this Grant is deemed to be contrary to the public interest or not in the State's best interest. <br />v. Intellectual Property <br />If Grantee infringes on a patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property right <br />while performing its obligations under this Grant, Grantee shall, at the State's option (a) obtain for the <br />State or Grantee the right to use such products and services; (b) replace any Goods, Services, or other <br />product involved with non -infringing products or modify them so that they become non -infringing; or, <br />(c) if neither of the foregoing alternatives are reasonably available, remove any infringing Goods, <br />Services, or products and refund the price paid therefore to the State. <br />Page 10 of 16 <br />
