If Consultant fails or refuses to perform any of the provisions of this <br />Agreement, and if Consultant does not cure the default within five (5) days of the <br />City providing a written notice specifying the nature of the default, City may <br />terminate this Agreement immediately by giving written notice to Consultant. <br />21.3. If City materially fails or refuses to perform any of the provisions of this <br />Agreement, and if City does not cure the default within thirty (30) days of <br />Consultant providing a written notice specifying the nature of the default, <br />Consultant may terminate this Agreement immediately by giving written notice to <br />City. <br />21.4. In addition to any and all other rights to terminate this Agreement as <br />provided herein, City may terminate the Agreement or the Services to be <br />performed under certain task orders at any time, in the event the funding becomes <br />unavailable by providing a written notice to the Consultant specifying the effective <br />date of the termination. <br />21.5. Within ten (10) days of termination pursuant to this Section 21 or of the <br />natural expiration of this Agreement, Consultant will assemble any Deliverables <br />without charge and put it in order for proper filing and closing and deliver it to City. <br />Consultant will be paid for work actually and satisfactorily performed up to the <br />termination date; however, the total will not exceed the amount payable under this <br />Agreement.
