Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary,written acceptance of a particular deliverable does not foreclose Department's remedies in the event deficiencies in the deliverable cannot be readily measured at the time of delivery. 6. Acceptance of Deliverables. a. Acceptance Process. All deliverables must be received and accepted in writing by Department's Grant Manager before payment.The Grantee shall work diligently to correct all deficiencies in the deliverable that remain outstanding,within a reasonable time at Grantee's expense.If Department's Grant Manager does not accept the deliverables within 30 days of receipt,they will be deemed rejected. b. Rejection of Deliverables. The Department reserves the right to reject deliverables,as outlined in the Grant Work Plan,as incomplete,inadequate,or unacceptable due,in whole or in part,to Grantee's lack of satisfactory performance under the terms of this Agreement.The Grantee's efforts to correct the rejected deliverables will be at Grantee's sole expense.Failure to fulfill the applicable technical requirements or complete all tasks or activities in accordance with the Grant Work Plan will result in rejection of the deliverable and the associated invoice. Payment for the rejected deliverable will not be issued unless the rejected deliverable is made acceptable to Department in accordance with the Agreement requirements. The Department,at its option,may allow additional time within which Grantee may remedy the objections noted by Department.The Grantee's failure to make adequate or acceptable deliverables after a reasonable opportunity to do so shall constitute an event of default. 7.

If the CAP is not accepted,Grantee shall have ten(10)days from receipt of Department letter rejecting the proposal to submit a revised proposed CAP. Failure to obtain Department approval of a CAP as specified above may result in Department's termination of this Agreement for cause as authorized in this Agreement. ii. Upon Department's notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP,Grantee shall have ten(10)days to commence implementation of the accepted plan.

No actions approved by Department or steps taken by Grantee shall preclude Department from subsequently asserting any deficiencies in performance. The Grantee shall continue to implement the CAP until all deficiencies are corrected. Reports on the progress of the CAP will be made to Department as requested by Department's Grant Manager. iii.

Force Majeure. The Grantee shall not be responsible for delay resulting from its failure to perform if neither the fault nor the negligence of Grantee or its employees or agents contributed to the delay and the delay is due directly to acts of God,wars,acts of public enemies, strikes,fires, floods,or other similar cause wholly beyond Grantee's control,or for any of the Attachment 1 6 of 11 Rev.4/27/18 foregoing that affect subcontractors or suppliers if no alternate source of supply is available to Grantee.

If performance is suspended or delayed,in whole or in part,due to any of the causes described in this paragraph,after the causes have ceased to exist Grantee shall perform at no increased cost,unless Department determines,in its sole discretion,that the delay will significantly impair the value of the Agreement to Department,in which case Department may:(1)accept allocated performance or deliveries from Grantee,provided that Grantee grants preferential treatment to Department with respect to products subjected to allocation;(2) contract with other sources(without recourse to and by Grantee for the related costs and expenses)to replace all or part of the products or services that are the subject of the delay,which purchases may be deducted from the Agreement quantity;or(3)terminate Agreement in whole or in part. - 18. Indemnification. a.

Notwithstanding sections a. and b. above, the following is the sole indemnification provision that applies to Grantees that are governmental entities: Each party hereto agrees that it shall be solely responsible for the negligent or wrongful acts of its employees and agents. However, nothing contained herein shall constitute a waiver by either party of its sovereign immunity or the provisions of Section 768.28,F.S.Further,nothing herein shall be construed as consent by a state agency or subdivision of the State to be sued by third parties in any matter arising out of any contract or this Agreement. d. No provision in this Agreement shall require Department to hold harmless or indemnify Grantee,insure or assume liability for Grantee's negligence, waive Department's sovereign immunity under the laws of Florida, or otherwise impose liability on Department for which it would not otherwise be responsible.
