Remedies for Breach It is understood and agreed that all rights and remedies afforded below shall be in addition to all remedies or actions otherwise authorized or permitted by law:
a. Cover/Substitute Performance In the event of Contractor's material breach that has not been cured within thirty (30) days following Contractor’s receipt of written notice of the material breach, the Commissioner may, with or without formally Bidding:
(i) Purchase from other sources; or (ii) If the Commissioner is unsuccessful after making reasonable attempts, under the circumstances then-existing, to timely obtain acceptable service or acquire replacement Product of equal or comparable quality, the Commissioner may acquire acceptable replacement service or Product of lesser or greater quality. Such purchases may be deducted from the Contract quantity without penalty or liability to the State. The Commissioner agrees that Authorized Users shall accept allocated performance or deliveries during a period where Contractor is making good faith efforts to cure a material breach.
b. Withhold Payment In any case where a reasonable question of material, uncured non-performance by Contractor arises, payment may be withheld in whole or in part at the discretion of the Commissioner. Should Contractor and the Commissioner fail to agree upon the question of “materiality” in an instance of non-performance, such failure to agree shall be a dispute under the Disputes clause.
c. Bankruptcy In the event that the Contractor files, or there is filed against Contractor, a petition under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code during the term of this Centralized Contract, Authorized Users may, at their discretion, make application to exercise its right to set-off against monies due the Debtor or, under the Doctrine of Recoupment, be credited the amounts owed by the Contractor arising out of the same transactions.
Remedies for Breach of Restrictive Covenant Executive has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with legal counsel, or has been given adequate opportunity to seek such counsel, and Executive acknowledges that the covenants contained in this Section 7 are reasonable with respect to their duration, geographical area and scope. Executive further acknowledges that the restrictions contained in this Section 7 are reasonable and necessary for the protection of the legitimate business interests of the Company, that they create no undue hardships, that any violation of these restrictions would cause substantial injury to the Company and such interests, and that such restrictions were a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement. In the event of any violation or threatened violation of these restrictions, the Company, in addition to and not in limitation of, any other rights, remedies or damages available to the Company under this Agreement or otherwise at law or in equity, shall be entitled to preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to prevent or restrain any such violation by Executive and any and all persons directly or indirectly acting for or with Executive, as the case may be. If Executive violates the Restrictive Covenant and the Company brings legal action for injunctive or other relief, the Company shall not, as a result of the time involved in obtaining such relief, be deprived of the benefit of the full period of the Restrictive Covenant. Accordingly, the Restrictive Covenant shall be deemed to have the duration specified herein computed from the date the relief is granted but reduced by the time between the period when the Restrictive Period began to run and the date of the first violation of the Restrictive Covenant by Executive.
Remedies for Breaches of This Agreement Section 8.1 Survival of Representations and Warranties
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REMEDIES FOR BREACH Section 3.01.
Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 9.01 and 9.02 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination or failure to examine any Mortgage File. With respect to any representation or warranty contained in Subsections 9.01 or 9.02 hereof that is made to the Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by the Purchaser that the substance of such representation and warranty was inaccurate as of the related Closing Date and such inaccuracy materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, then notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to the inaccuracy at the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty. Upon discovery by either the Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other relevant parties. Within sixty (60) days after the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of any breach of a representation or warranty, which materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser therein (or which materially and adversely affects the value of the applicable Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Purchaser therein in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage Loan), the Seller shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Seller shall, at the Purchaser's option, repurchase such Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans at the Repurchase Price. Notwithstanding the above sentence, (i) within sixty (60) days after the earlier of either discovery by, or notice to, the Seller of any breach of the representation and warranty set forth in clause (vv) of Subsection 9.02, the Seller shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price and (ii) any breach of a Deemed Material and Adverse Representation shall automatically be deemed to materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser therein. In the event that a breach shall involve any representation or warranty set forth in Subsection 9.01, and such breach cannot be cured within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of such breach, all of the Mortgage Loans affected by such breach shall, at the Purchaser's option, be repurchased by the Seller at the Repurchase Price. However, if the breach shall involve a representation or warranty set forth in Subsection 9.02 (except as provided in the second sentence of this paragraph with respect to certain breaches for which no substitution is permitted) and the Seller discovers or receives notice of any such breach within 120 days of the related Closing Date, the Seller shall, at the Purchaser's option and provided that the Seller has a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, rather than repurchase the Mortgage Loan as provided above, remove such Mortgage Loan and substitute in its place a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, provided, however, that any such substitution shall be effected within such one hundred twenty (120) days after the related Closing Date. If the Seller has no Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, it shall repurchase the deficient Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price. Any repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 9.03 shall occur on a date designated by the Purchaser, and acceptable to Seller, and shall be accomplished by either (a) if the Interim Servicing Agreement has been entered into and is in effect, deposit in the Custodial Account of the amount of the Repurchase Price for distribution to the Purchaser on the next scheduled Remittance Date, after deducting therefrom any amount received in respect of such repurchased Mortgage Loan or Loans and being held in the Custodial Account for future distribution or (b) if the Interim Servicing Agreement has not been entered into or is no longer in effect, by direct remittance of the Repurchase Price to the Purchaser or its designee in accordance with the Purchaser's instructions. At the time of repurchase of any deficient Mortgage Loan (or removal of any Deleted Mortgage Loan), the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange for the reassignment of the repurchased Mortgage Loan (or Deleted Mortgage Loan) to the Seller or its designee and the delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Custodian relating to the repurchased Mortgage Loan (or Deleted Mortgage Loan). In the event of a repurchase or substitution, the Seller shall, simultaneously with such reassignment, give written notice to the Purchaser that such repurchase or substitution has taken place, amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the withdrawal of the Deleted Mortgage Loan from this Agreement, and, in the case of substitution, identify a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan and amend the related Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the addition of such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan to this Agreement. In connection with any such substitution, the Seller shall be deemed to have made as to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement except that all such representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be deemed made as of the date of such substitution. The Seller shall effect such substitution by delivering to the Custodian or to such other party as the Purchaser may designate in writing for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan the documents required by Subsection 6.03 and the Custodial Agreement, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Subsection 6.03 and the Custodial Agreement. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. The Seller shall cause the Interim Servicer to remit directly to the Purchaser, or its designee in accordance with the Purchaser's instructions the Monthly Payment less the Servicing Fee due, if any, on such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans in the month following the date of such substitution. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Purchaser shall include the Monthly Payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan in the month of substitution, and the Seller shall
Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties of the Servicer It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 shall survive the engagement of the Servicer to perform the servicing responsibilities as of each Closing Date and the delivery of the Servicing Files to the Servicer and shall inure to the benefit of the Owner. Upon discovery by either the Servicer or the Owner of a Breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property or the interest of the Owner (in the case of any of the foregoing, a "Breach"), the party discovering such Breach shall give prompt written notice to the other. Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Servicer of any Breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 6.01 which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall use its Best Efforts promptly to cure such Breach in all material respects and, if such Breach cannot be cured, the Servicer shall, at the Owner's option, assign the Servicer's rights and obligations under this Agreement (or respecting the affected Mortgage Loans) to a successor servicer, subject to the approval of the Owner, which approval shall be in the Owner's sole discretion. Such assignment shall be made in accordance with Section 10.01. In addition, the Servicer shall indemnify the Owner and hold it harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a Breach of the Servicer representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Any cause of action against the Servicer relating to or arising out of the Breach of any representations and warranties made in Section 6.01 shall accrue upon (i) discovery of such Breach by the Servicer or notice thereof by the Owner to the Servicer, (ii) failure by the Servicer to cure such Breach within the applicable cure period, and (iii) demand upon the Servicer by the Owner for compliance with this Agreement.
Remedies for Contractor Breach Pertaining to contract-related issues, it is the responsibility of both CMHA and the contractor to communicate with each other in as clear and complete a manner as possible. If at any time during the term of this contract CMHA or the contractor is not satisfied with any issue, it is the responsibility of that party to deliver to the other party communication, in writing, fully detailing the issue and corrective action (please note that CMHA has the right to issue unilateral addendums to this contract, but the contractor does not have the same right). The other party shall, within 10 days, respond in writing to the other party (however, CMHA shall retain the right to, if conditions warrant, require the contractor to respond in a shorter period of time). Further, CMHA shall, at a minimum, employ the following steps in dealing with the contractor as to any performance issues:
20.16.1.1. If the contractor is in material breach of the contract, CMHA may promptly invoke the termination clause detailed within Section No. 3, form HUD-5370-C, General Conditions for Non-Construction Contracts, Section I—(With or without Maintenance Work), which is attached hereto, and terminate the contract for cause. Such termination must be delivered to the contractor in writing and shall fully detail all pertinent issues pertaining to the cause of and justification for the termination.
20.16.1.2. Prior to termination, CMHA may choose to warn
20.16.1.3. After termination, if the contractor does not agree with CMHA’s justification for the termination, the contractor shall have 10 days to dispute, in writing, such action; if he/she does not do so within the 10-day period, he/she shall have no recourse but to accept and agree with CMHA’s position on the issue. The written protest must detail all pertinent information pertaining to the dispute, including justification detailing CMHA’s alleged incorrect action(s).
20.16.1.4. The response to any protest received shall be conducted in accordance with Section No. 4.0 of this document.
20.16.1.5. It is CMHA’s policy to resolve all contractual issues informally and without litigation. Disputes will not be referred to HUD unless all administrative remedies have been exhausted. When appropriate, a mediator may be used to help resolve differences.
20.16.1.6. For contracts of $100,000 or less, the bidder/contractor may request to meet with the Procurement Officer.
20.16.1.7. All claims by a contractor relating to performance of a contract shall be submitted in writing to the Procurement Officer or designee for a written decision. The contractor may request a conference on the claim. The Procurement Officer’s decision shall inform the contractor of its appeal rights to the next higher level of authority in CMHA. Contractor claims shall be governed by the Changes clause in the form HUD-5370-C.
Effect of Termination Upon any expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement, the obligations and rights of the parties hereto shall cease, provided that such expiration or termination of this Agreement shall not relieve the parties of any obligation or breach of this Agreement accruing prior to such expiration or termination, including, without limitation, all accrued payment obligations arising under Article 6. In addition, Article 5, Article 7, Section 2.12, Section 4.5, and this Section 4.6 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of Registry Operator to operate the registry for the TLD shall immediately cease upon any expiration of the Term or termination of this Agreement.
Liability for Breach of Agreement Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Parties hereto shall perform their respective obligations under the Agreement. Any failure to perform the obligations stipulated in the Agreement, in part or in whole, shall be deemed as breach of contract and the breaching party shall compensate the non-breaching party for the loss incurred as a result of the breach.
