Reasonable cost will include a reasonable allowance for project Overhead and general administrative Overhead not to exceed a total of seven (7%) percent of Direct Costs of such Work.

15. A reasonable allowance for profit on the cost of the Work performed as determined by the City, provided the Consultant establishes to the satisfaction of the City that it is reasonably probable that he or she would have made a profit had the Contract been completed and provided further, that the profit allowed shall in no event exceed four (4%) percent of said cost.

16. The reasonable cost to the Consultant of handling material returned to the vendor, delivered to the City or otherwise disposed of as directed by the City.

20. All payments, including payment upon the Final Statement, shall be subject to deduction for prior payments and amounts, if any, to be kept or retained under the provisions of the Contract.

In such event, the Consultant and its sureties shall be liable for all damages including costs of managerial and administrative services, engineering, legal and other consultant fees, and liquidated damages sustained or incurred by the City.

3. Upon termination, the Consultant shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is finished. If upon completion of the Work the total cost to the City, including engineering, legal and other consultant fees, costs of managerial and administrative services, construction costs, and liquidated damages shall be less than the amount which would have been paid if the Work had been completed by the Consultant in accordance with the terms of the Contract, then the difference shall be paid to the Consultant in the same manner as the final payment under the Contract. If the total cost incurred by the City on account of termination of the Contract and subsequent completion of the Work by the City by whatever method the City may deem expedient shall exceed said amount which the Consultant would otherwise have been paid, the Consultant and its sureties shall be liable to the City for the full amount of such excess expense.

The applicant further agrees that it will refrain from entering into any contract or contract modification subject to Executive Order 11246 of September 24, 1965, with a contractor debarred from, or who has not demonstrated eligibility for, Government contracts and federally assisted construction contracts pursuant to the Executive Order and will carry out such sanctions and penalties for violation of the equal opportunity clause as may be imposed upon contractors and subcontractors by the administering agency or the Secretary of Labor pursuant to Part II, Subpart D of the Executive Order.
