Further, the City may, at its sole discretion renew the contract for up to three (3) months after all renewal periods have expired, in order to prevent a lapse in coverage until a new contract is in place.

1.2.1 The City shall exercise such sole option to renew the Contract Term by issuing a change order “Renewal Notice” through www.phlcontracts.phila.gov (“PHLContracts”) notifying the successful seller that the Contract is renewed for the Renewal Term or Additional Performance Period (identified by commencement and termination dates) that is specified in the Renewal Notice. The Contract shall be deemed to be renewed for such Renewal Term or Additional Performance Period, and successful seller shall be obligated to perform all terms and conditions of the Contract throughout such Renewal Term or Additional Performance Period, as of the effective date indicated on the City's Renewal Notice, whether or not successful seller has agreed, verbally or in writing, to such renewal of the Contract term.
