VII. Titling Vehicles Unless specified otherwise, Vehicles shall be titled to the Purchaser with the Florida Department Transportation, 605 Suwannee Street, Mail Station 26, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0450 listed as the only lien holder. The Contractor shall be responsible for applying for Title and purchasing a license tag on behalf of the Purchaser. VIII. Contract Term and Termination 1. Contract Term The Purchasers will be allowed to purchase this vehicle as long as current production year chassis are available from the manufacturer or suppliers, under the same terms and conditions stated in this initial Contract. Following award of the initial model production year, the FDOT will have an option to extend the Contract for four succeeding model production years via a properly negotiated and executed Contract Amendment. Any Contract Amendments shall be subject to the same pricing, terms and conditions of the original Contract. However, a chassis model price increase will be considered when a model year change is specific to the automotive or bus industry. The Contractor shall provide a certification from the manufacturer to justify the chassis model price increase. The price may be adjusted only in the same amount as the price increase to the Contractor. The Contractor must submit the request and all necessary documentation to the TRIPS Program Administrator. The Contractor may request an increase in the second stage production costs after, or in conjunction with, the chassis increase request being received by the TRIPS Program Administrator. The TRIPS will compute the second stage costs utilizing the formula explained in Second Stage Price Escalation/De-Escalation Formula (“Exhibit 7”). A final annual adjustment will then be authorized after combining the chassis increase with the second stage increase, if any. 2. Termination for Cause The Contractor shall be considered in default of the Contract and such default will be considered as cause for the FDOT to terminate the Contract, in whole or in part, for any of the following reasons, if the Contractor: Florida Department of Transportation Public Transit Office TRIPS-22-CA-MB-LF-Model1 Standard Cutaway and Minibus Chassis Type Transit Vehicles Page 12 of 196 DocuSign Envelope ID: 6FD53F08-2BF8-412C-A338-B935DB86415F
