Order, shall proceed to completion under the terms of this Agreement.
12.2 CONSULTANT shall be considered in material default of this Agreement and such default will
be considered cause for OWNER to terminate this Agreement and any Purchase Orders in effect, in
whole or in part, as further set forth in this section, for any of the following reasons: (a)
CONSULTANT'S failure to begin Services under any particular Purchase Order within the times
specified under that Purchase Order, or (b) CONSULTANT'S failure to properly and timely perform

five (45) days after such payment is due as set forth in the Purchase Order or such other time as
required by Florida's Prompt Payment Act or (ii) OWNER otherwise persistently fails to fulfill some
material obligation owed by OWNER to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or subsequently issued
Purchase Order, and (ii) OWNER has failed to cure such default within fourteen (14) days of receiving
written notice of same from CONSULTANT, then CONSULTANT may stop its performance under the
subject Purchase Order until such default is cured, after giving OWNER a second fourteen (14) days

employees or any other persons performing portions of the Services under contract with the
CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT may terminate the subject Purchase Order by giving written
notice to OWNER of CONSULTANT'S intent to terminate that Purchase Order. If OWNER does not
