When exercising any rights or remedies under this paragraph, Owner shall not be <br />required to obtain the lowest price for the Work performed. <br />F. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by Owner, the termination will not <br />affect any rights or remedies of Owner against Contractor then existing or which may <br />thereafter accrue, or any rights or remedies of Owner against Contractor or any surety <br />under any payment bond or performance bond. Any retention or payment of money due <br />Contractor by Owner will not release Contractor from liability. <br />G.

Contractor shall not be paid on account of loss of anticipated overhead, profits, or revenue, <br />or other economic loss arising out of or resulting from such termination. <br />16.04 Contractor May Stop Work or Terminate <br />A. If, through no act or fault of Contractor, (1) the Work is suspended for more than 90 <br />consecutive days by Owner or under an order of court or other public authority, or (2) <br />Engineer fails to act on any Application for Payment within 30 days after it is submitted, or <br />(3) Owner fails for 30 days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to be due, then <br />Contractor may, upon seven days written notice to Owner and Engineer, and provided <br />Owner or Engineer do not remedy such suspension or failure within that time, terminate <br />the contract and recover from Owner payment on the same terms as provided in Paragraph <br />16.03. <br />B. In lieu of terminating the Contract and without prejudice to any other right or remedy, if <br />Engineer has failed to act on an Application for Payment within 30 days after it is <br />submitted, or Owner has failed for 30 days to pay Contractor any sum finally determined to <br />be due, Contractor may, seven days after written notice to Owner and Engineer, stop the <br />Work until payment is made of all such amounts due Contractor, including interest thereon. <br />The provisions of this paragraph are not intended to preclude Contractor from submitting a <br />Change Proposal for an adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times or otherwise for <br />EJCDC® C-700, Standard General Conditions of the Construction Contract. <br />Copyright © 2013 National Society of Professional Engineers, American Council of Engineering Companies, <br />and American Society of Civil Engineers.
