limited to the settlement terms, conditions, and in the case of partial termination the portion to be

PARTIES may terminate this AGREEMENT for convenience for reasons including, but not limited
to, the following:

2. WSDOT determines, in its sole discretion, that the continuation of the Project would not

defense; or an Executive Order of the President or Governor of the state with respect to the
preservation of energy resources;
4. The CONTRACTOR is prevented from proceeding with the Project by reason of a

would not be adequately served by the continuation of financial assistance for the Project.

manner WSDOT directs.

time by written notice to the CONTRACTOR, if the CONTRACTOR materially breaches or fails to

in which the CONTRACTOR is in default.. If it is later determined by WSDOT that the
City of Kent Page 6 of 9
PTDO124
CONTRACTOR had an excusable reason for not performing, such as events which are not the
fault of or are beyond the control of the CONTRACTOR, such as a strike, fire or flood, WSDOT
may: (a) allow the CONTRACTOR to continue work after setting up a new delivery of performance
schedule, or(b) treat the termination as a termination for convenience.
D. WSDOT, in its sole discretion may, in the case of a termination for breach or default, allow
the CONTRACTOR ten (10) business days, or such longer period as determined by WSDOT, in
which to cure the defect. In such case, the notice of termination will state the time period in which
cure is permitted and other appropriate conditions. If the CONTRACTOR fails to remedy to
WSDOT's satisfaction the breach or default within the timeframe and under the conditions set
forth in the notice of termination, WSDOT shall have the right to terminate this AGREEMENT
without any further obligation to CONTRACTOR. Any such termination for default shall not in any
way operate to preclude WSDOT from also pursuing all available remedies against
CONTRACTOR and its sureties for said breach or default.
E. In the event that WSDOT elects to waive its remedies for any breach by CONTRACTOR
of any covenant, term or condition of this AGREEMENT, such waiver by WSDOT shall not limit
WSDOT's remedies for any succeeding breach of that or of any other term, covenant, or condition
of this AGREEMENT.
F. Any termination of the AGREEMENT,whether for convenience or for default, that requires
the AGREEMENT to be terminated or discontinued before the specified end date set forth in the
caption header, "Term of Project", shall require WSDOT to amend the AGREEMENT by written
amendment to reflect the termination date and reason for termination.
Section 21

by applicable law, shall not be a waiver of or preclude the exercise of any such right or remedy.
Section 22
Waiver
In no event shall any WSDOT payment of grant funds to the CONTRACTOR constitute or be
construed as a waiver by WSDOT of any CONTRACTOR breach, or default, and shall in no way
impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to WSDOT with respect to any breach or default.
In no event shall acceptance of any WSDOT payment of grant funds by the CONTRACTOR
constitute or be construed as a waiver by CONTRACTOR of any WSDOT breach, or default which
shall in no way impair or prejudice any right or remedy available to CONTRACTOR with respect
to any breach or default.
Section 23
WSDOT Advice
