In accordance with FAR 52.211-10 the contractor is required to complete this project, ready for use, within the number of calendar days specified in the Task Order. To ensure adequate time to correct any deficiencies noted by the government during the final inspection, it is highly recommended that the contractor schedules such final inspection through the contract administrator at least seven (7) calendar days prior to the scheduled project completion date.

"punchlist" items are found, another inspection may not be required. However, all punchlist items must be corrected by the contractor, and verified by the project inspector, prior to expiration of the contract period unless otherwise authorized in writing by the contracting officer. The determination as to what constitutes a minor discrepancy rests solely with the contracting officer and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed as a waiver of the government's rights under any clause in this contract, including the right to assess liquidated damages as may be appropriate for failure to complete the project in accordance with the terms and conditions contained therein.

13. TERMINATION FOR CAUSE

a. The NAFI may, subject to paragraphs c. and d. below, by written notice of cause to the

Contractor, terminate this contract in whole or in part if the Contractor fails to-

(2) Make progress, so as to endanger performance of this contract (however, see paragraph b. below); or

(3) Perform any of the other provisions of this contract (however see paragraph b. below).

b. The NAFI's right to terminate this contract under paragraph a. 2. and a. 3. above, may be exercised if the Contractor does not cure such failure within 10 days (or more if authorized in writing by the Contracting Officer) after receipt of notice from the Contracting Officer specifying the failure.

c. If the NAFI terminates this contract in whole or in part, it may acquire, under the terms and in the manner the Contracting Officer considers appropriate, supplies or services similar to those terminated, and the Contractor will remain liable to the NAFI for any excess costs for those supplies or services. However the Contractor must continue the work not terminated.

d. Defaults by subcontractors at any tier for any reason do not constitute causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. The Contractor shall not be liable for any excess costs if the failure to perform the contract arises from causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Contractor. Examples of such causes include:

(1) Acts of God or of the public enemy

(2) Act of the NAFI in either its sovereign or contractual capacity

(3) Fires

(4) Floods

(5) Epidemics

(6) Quarantine restrictions

(7) Strikes

(8) Freight embargoes

(9) Unusually severe weather

(1) completed supplies, and

(2) partially completed supplies and materials, parts, tool dies, jigs, fixtures, plans, drawings, information, and contract rights (collectively referred to as manufacturing materials in the clause) that the Contractor has specifically produced or acquired for the terminated portion of this contract. Upon direction of the Contracting Officer, the Contractor shall also protect and preserve property in its possession in which the NAFI has an interest.

f. The NAFI shall pay the contract price for completed supplies delivered and accepted. The

Contractor and Contracting Officer shall agree on the amount of payment for manufacturing materials delivered and accepted and for the protection and preservation of the property. Failure to agree will be a dispute under the Disputes Clause. The NAFI may withhold from these amounts any sum the Contracting Officer determines to be necessary to protect the NAFI against loss because of outstanding liens or claims of former lien holders.

g. If, after termination, it is determined that the cause by the Contractor was excusable, the rights and obligations of the parties shall be the same as if the termination had been issued for convenience of the NAFI.

h. The rights and remedies of the NAFI in this clause are in addition to any other rights and remedies provided by law or under this contract.

i. This contract is automatically terminated for the convenience of the government in the event the NAFI is dissolved.

method of shipment or packing; description of services to be performed; time of performance (i.e., hours of the day, days of the week, etc.); place of delivery or place of performance of services.

(2) If the requirement is for concession services (including public private ventures):

specifications (including drawings and designs); method or manner of performance of work; NAFI-furnished facilities, equipment, materials, services, or site; and/or directing acceleration in the performance of work.

(3) If the requirement is for transportation services: specifications; work or services; place of origin; place of delivery; tonnage to be shipped; and/or amount of NAFI-furnished property.

b. If any such change causes an increase or decrease in the cost of, or the time required for, performance of any part of the work under this Contract, whether or not changed by the order, the Contracting Officer will make an equitable adjustment in the Contract price, the delivery schedule, or both, and modify the Contract.

c. The Contractor must assert its right to an adjustment under this clause within 30 days from the date of receipt of the written order; however, if the Contracting Officer decides that the facts justify it, the Contracting Officer may receive and act upon a proposal submitted before final payment of the Contract.

d. If the Contractor’s proposal includes the cost of property made obsolete or excess by the change, the Contracting Officer shall have the right to prescribe the manner of the disposition of the property.

e. If the requirement is for architect-engineer or other professional services, no services for which an additional cost or fee will be charged by the Contractor shall be furnished without the prior written authorization of the Contracting Officer.

f. If the requirement is for concession services (including public private ventures), the

Contractor shall notify the Contracting Officer in writing within seven (7) days of the occurrence of any event that the Contractor considers a change to the Contract that has not been authorized in writing signed by the Contracting Officer. The Contractor will be deemed to have waived any right to an adjustment if timely notice is not provided to the

Contracting Officer as required herein. For purposes of this clause, "event" shall include, but not be limited to, an order or direction by a NAFI or other Government official, a contested contract interpretation, interference with or interruption of the contract work, or any other event that increases the cost or time to perform the contract as compared to the cost or time that would be required if the Contractor performed the Contract in accordance with its terms.

g. Failure to agree to any adjustment shall be a “claim” under either the “Claims” or

“Disputes Resolution” clause of this Contract; however, nothing in this clause shall excuse the Contractor from proceeding with the Contract as changed.
