<br /> the City in performance of its work,the City may, in addition to any other remedy,withhold

<br /> Provider's conduct.
<br /> 5. Termination of Contract. City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement at any time by
<br /> sending written notice of termination to Service Provider("Notice"). The Notice shall specify a

<br /> in a reasonably prompt manner)or three calendar days after issuance of the Notice. Upon the Notice
<br /> Date, Service Provider shall immediately commence to end the Work in a reasonable and orderly
<br /> manner. Unless terminated for Service Provider's material breach, Service Provider shall be paid or
<br /> reimbursed for: (a)all hours worked and Eligible Expenses incurred up to the Notice Date,less all

<br /> Provider's address provided herein,postage prepaid,certified or registered mail,return receipt
<br /> requested, or by delivery. In addition,Notices may also be sent by any other method reasonably

<br /> Service Provider actual notice in a timely manner, such as fax. The City does not by this Section 7
<br /> waive,release, or forego any legal remedy for any violation,breach,or non-performance of any of the
<br /> provision of this Agreement. At its sole option,City may deduct from the final payment due Service
<br /> Provider(a)any damages, expenses or costs arising out of any such violations,breaches,or non-
<br /> performance and(b)any other backcharges or credits. The City shall not pay Service Provider for any
<br /> expenses incurred or work done following the effective date of termination unless authorized in writing
<br /> by the City before the expenses are incurred or the work is done.
<br /> 6. Changes. The City may,from time to time,unilaterally decrease the scope of the services of
<br /> Service Provider to be performed hereunder. Such decrease in the scope of work(and resulting
<br /> decrease in compensation),shall: (a)be made only in writing and signed by an authorized City
<br /> representative, (b)be explicitly identified as such and(c)become a part of this Agreement.
