If Owner's environmental report (if any) reveals any additional material difficulties, hazards or conditions at or near the Facility Site incident to the performance of the Services that were not previously identified in the preliminary examination by Owner delivered to Contractor prior to the execution hereof, then Contractor shall have the right, to be exercised no later than thirty (30) days after receipt of each such report, to request a Scope Change providing for such equitable adjustments (if any) in one or more of the Contract Price, the Guaranteed Completion Dates, the Construction Progress Milestone Dates, the Payment and Milestone Schedule, the Performance Guarantees, the Project 144 Schedule and, as appropriate, such other provisions of this Agreement which may be affected thereby, in each case as may be reasonably warranted by such material differences or additions, in which event Owner shall have the option of (a) granting such a Scope Change on terms mutually and reasonably agreeable to Owner and Contractor or (b) terminating this Agreement without any liability of either Party to the other, subject to the provisions of Section 15.1 hereof.
