contract and all administrative costs directly related to the replacement contract, e.g., cost of the
competitive bidding, mailing, advertising and staff time.
COMMERCE reserves the right to suspend all or part of the Contract, withhold further payments, or prohibit
the Contractor from incurring additional obligations of funds during investigation of the alleged compliance
breach and pending corrective action by the Contractor or a decision by COMMERCE to terminate the
Contract. A termination shall be deemed a “Termination for Convenience” if it is determined that the
Contractor: (1) was not in default; or (2) failure to perform was outside of his or her control, fault or
negligence.
The rights and remedies of COMMERCE provided in this Contract are not exclusive and are, in addition to
any other rights and remedies, provided by law.

and services accepted by COMMERCE, and the amount agreed upon by the Contractor and COMMERCE

services, (iii) other property or services that are accepted by COMMERCE, and (iv) the protection and
preservation of property, unless the termination is for default, in which case the Authorized Representative
shall determine the extent of the liability of COMMERCE. Failure to agree with such determination shall
be a dispute within the meaning of the "Disputes" clause of this Contract. COMMERCE may withhold from
any amounts due the Contractor such sum as the Authorized Representative determines to be necessary
to protect COMMERCE against potential loss or liability.
The rights and remedies of COMMERCE provided in this section shall not be exclusive and are in addition
