or potential delay and describe the cause of the delay either (1) within ten (10) days after the <br /> cause that creates or will create the delay first arose, if the Contractor could reasonably foresee <br /> that a delay could occur as a result, or (2) if delay is not reasonably foreseeable, within five (5) <br /> days after the date the Contractor first had reason to believe that a delay could result. THE <br /> FOREGOING SHALL CONSTITUTE THE CONTRACTOR'S SOLE REMEDY OR <br /> EXCUSE WITH RESPECT TO DELAY. Providing notice in strict accordance with this <br /> paragraph is a condition precedent to such remedy. No claim for damages, other than for an <br /> extension of time, shall be asserted against the Customer. The Contractor shall not be entitled to <br /> an increase in the Contract price or payment of any kind from the Customer for direct, indirect, <br /> consequential, impact or other costs, expenses or damages, including but not limited to costs of <br /> acceleration or inefficiency, arising because of delay, disruption, interference, or hindrance from <br /> any cause whatsoever. If performance is suspended or delayed, in whole or in part, due to any of <br /> the causes described in this paragraph, after the causes have ceased to exist the Contractor shall <br /> perform at no increased cost, unless the Customer determines, in its sole discretion, that the delay <br /> will significantly impair the value of the Contract to the State or to Customers, in which case the <br /> Customer may (1) accept allocated performance or deliveries from the Contractor, provided that <br /> the Contractor grants preferential treatment to Customers with respect to products subjected to <br /> allocation, or (2) purchase from other sources (without recourse to and by the Contractor for the <br /> related costs and expenses) to replace all or part of the products that are the subject of the delay, <br /> which purchases may be deducted from the Contract quantity, or (3) terminate the Contract in <br /> whole or in part. <br /> 25. Changes. The Customer may unilaterally require, by written order, changes altering, adding <br /> to, or deducting from the Contract specifications, provided that such changes are within the <br /> general scope of the Contract. The Customer may make an equitable adjustment in the Contract <br /> price or delivery date if the change affects the cost or time of performance. Such equitable <br /> adjustments require the written consent of the Contractor, which shall not be unreasonably <br /> withheld. If unusual quantity requirements arise, the Customer may solicit separate bids to <br /> satisfy them. <br /> 26. Renewal. Upon mutual agreement, the Customer and the Contractor may renew the Contract, <br /> in whole or in part, for a period that may not exceed 3 years or the term of the contract, <br /> whichever period is longer. Any renewal shall specify the renewal price, as set forth in the <br /> solicitation response. The renewal must be in writing and signed by both parties, and is <br /> contingent upon satisfactory performance evaluations and subject to availability of funds. <br /> 27. Purchase Order Duration. Purchase orders issued pursuant to a state term or agency <br /> contract must be received by the Contractor no later than close of business on the last day of the <br /> contract's term to be considered timely. The Contractor is obliged to fill those orders in <br /> accordance with the contract's terms and conditions. Purchase orders received by the contractor <br /> after close of business on the last day of the state term or agency contract's term shall be <br /> considered void. <br /> Purchase orders for a one-time delivery of commodities or performance of contractual services <br /> shall be valid through the performance by the Contractor, and all terms and conditions of the <br /> 30 <br />
