In the event the <br />Department suffers such a loss of funding, the Department will give the Recipient written notice <br />which will set forth the effective date of full or partial termination or, if a change in funding is <br />required, setting forth the change in funding and the changes in the approved budget. <br />§4.10 Suspension or Termination of Contract for Material Breach. <br />In the event of a material breach of the terms of this contract by the Recipient, the Department <br />may take the following actions: <br />(a) Suspend the contract, withhold further payments, and prohibit the Recipient from <br />incurring additional obligations pending corrective action by the Recipient. <br />(b) Terminate the contract, in whole or in part, at any time before Project completion. The <br />Department will notify the Recipient in writing of the determination of, the reasons for, <br />and the effective date of the termination. Payments made to the Recipient or recoveries <br />by the Department will be in accord with the legal rights and liabilities of the parties. The <br />Recipient will return to the Department all unencumbered funds. Any costs previously <br />paid by the Department which are subsequently determined to be unallowable through <br />audit and close-out procedures may be recovered from present Trust Funds or deducted <br />from future awards to the Recipient, if any. <br />§4.11 Force Majeure. <br />Neither party shall be liable for any costs or damages resulting from its inability to perform any <br />of its obligations under the contract due to a natural disaster or other similar event outside the <br />control of and not the fault of the affected party ("Force Majeure Event"). A Force Majeure <br />Event shall not constitute a breach of the contract. The party so affected shall immediately <br />give notice to the other party of the Force Majeure Event. The Department may grant relief <br />from performance of the contract if the Recipient is prevented from performance by a Force <br />Majeure Event. The burden of proof for the need for such relief shall rest upon the Recipient. <br />To obtain release based on a Force Majeure Event, the Recipient must file a written request <br />for such relief with the Department. <br />Labor disputes with the impacted party's own employees will not be considered a Force <br />Majeure Event and will not suspend performance requirements under the contract. <br />§4.12 Applicability to Subrecipients and Contractors; Other Requirements. <br />All provisions of this contract will be made binding on any subrecipient or contractor of the <br />Recipient, and the Recipient will, nonetheless, remain fully obligated under the provisions of <br />this contract. <br />Any such subrecipient or contractor of the Recipient must be authorized to transact business <br />in the State of Nebraska.
