Contractor will comply with all applicable local, state and federal laws and regulations prohibiting discrimination and harassment. 20. Termination. 20.1 Either party upon tendering thirty (30) days written notice to the other party may terminate this Agreement. 20.2 If Contractor fails or refuses to perform any of the provisions of this Agreement, and if Contractor does not cure the default within five (5) days of the City providing a written notice specifying the nature of the default, City may terminate this Agreement immediately by giving written notice to Contractor. 20.3 If City materially fails or refuses to perform any of the provisions of this Agreement, and if City does not cure the default within thirty (30) days of Contractor providing a written notice specifying the nature of the default, Contractor may terminate this Agreement immediately by giving written notice to City. 20.4 If either Party terminates the Agreement pursuant to Section 20, Contractor will be paid for (a) work performed up to the termination date and (b) any garments which are not returned to Contractor within ten (10) business days of termination; however, the total will not exceed the amount payable under this Agreement. City will determine the payment amount for work performed up to the termination date based upon the value of the work product delivered to City and the percentage of the Services performed. Any garments for which City has already paid the full replacement cost, shall not be returned to Contractor. 21. Covenants against Contingent Fees. Contractor warrants that Contractor has not employed or retained any company or person, other than a bona fide employee working for Contractor, to solicit or secure this Agreement, and that Contractor has not paid or agreed to pay any company or person, other than a bona fide employee, any fee, commission, percentage, brokerage fee, gift, or any other consideration contingent upon, or resulting from, the award or making of this Agreement. For breach or violation of this warranty, City will have the right to annul this Agreement without liability, or, in its discretion, to deduct from the Agreement price or consideration, or otherwise recover, the full amount of the fee, commission, percentage, brokerage fees, gift, or contingent fee. 22. Claims and Lawsuits. Contractor acknowledges that if a false claim is submitted to City by Contractor, Contractor may be subject to criminal prosecution for fraud. Contractor also acknowledges that California Government Code sections 12650 et seq. (the False Claims Act), as amended, applies to this Agreement and provides for civil penalties where a person knowingly submits a false claim to a public entity. These provisions include false claims made with deliberate ignorance of the false information or in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of information. If City seeks to recover penalties pursuant to the False Claims Act, it is entitled to recover its litigation costs, including ATTY/AGR.2021.041/Prudential Overall Supply (Page 7 of 15)
