is determined for any reason that CONSULTANT was not in default, or that its default was
excusable, or that OWNER otherwise was not entitled to the remedy against CONSULTANT

Payment Act or (ii) OWNER otherwise persistently fails to fulfill some material obligation owed
by OWNER to CONSULTANT under this Agreement, 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 this Agreement until such default is cured, after
giving OWNER a second fourteen (14) days written notice of CONSULTANT's intention to stop
performance under the Agreement. If the Services are so stopped for a period of one hundred

portions of the Services under contract with the CONSULTANT, the CONSULTANT may
terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to OWNER of CONSULTANT'S intent to
terminate this Agreement. If OWNER does not cure its default within fourteen (14) days after
receipt of CONSULTANT'S written notice, CONSULTANT may, upon fourteen (14) additional

Once the typical sections have been reviewed and agreed to by the County, AIM will develop
two (2) alignment alternatives along the north side of Immokalee Road from Northbrooke Drive
to Livingston Road.
1.3 AIM will develop preliminary construction cost estimates based on the six (6) typical section
alternatives and two (2) alignment alternatives. The County will provide unit costs for

by AIM to estimate the total project cost. AIM will provide graphics and a spreadsheet for the
County's use in developing the right-of-way acquisition cost estimates.
1.4 AIM will evaluate potential environment effects associated with the two (2) alignment
alternatives. Specifically, AIM will investigate effects to wetlands, listed species, and

consultants.
(2) CONSULTANT agrees to provide the following information when requested by OWNER
or OWNER'S Project Manager:
a. The date the professional liability insurance renews.
b. Current policy limits.
c. Current deductibles/self-insured retention.
d. Current underwriter.
e. Amount (in both dollars and percent) the underwriter will give as a credit if the
policy is replaced by an individual project policy.
f. Cost of professional insurance as a percent of revenue.
g. Affirmation that the design firm will complete a timely project errors and omissions
application.
(3) If OWNER elects to purchase a project professional liability policy, CONSULTANT to be
insured will be notified and OWNER will provide professional liability insurance, naming
CONSULTANT and its professional sub-consultants as named insureds.
