of $444,960.00 (a decrease of $799,735.13). The parties hereto understand and agree that this

D.
In addition to the invoicing requirements contained in paragraphs 3.B. and C. above, the

services needed for submittal of a satisfactory deliverable, at no additional cost to the Department,

deliverable is not submitted within the specified timeframe, the Department may, in its sole
discretion, either: 1) terminate this Agreement for failure to perform, or 2) the Department Grant

additional or further remedial steps, or to terminate this Agreement for failure to perform.
No actions approved by the Department or steps taken by the Grantee shall preclude the
Department from subsequently asserting any deficiencies in performance. The Grantee
