made by the Contractor to the Subcontractor.

and incidental damages.

reasonable efforts to mitigate or eliminate such circumstance.

 

ARTICLE 23.  CHANGES

 

A.           The Subcontractor shall make no changes in the work or timing of
its performance except as ordered in a written letter of instruction by
Contractor.  Additional work performed by Subcontractor without authorization

Contract, including but not limited to (a) revising or adding to the work or
deleting portions thereof, or (b) revising the period of performance or
schedules.

B.             If any change under this paragraph causes an increase or decrease
in the cost of, or the time required for performance of, the work, or otherwise
affects any other provision to this Agreement, an equitable adjustment shall be
made by Contractor in (a) the Agreement price, (b) the period of performance and
work schedules, and/or (c) such other provisions of this Agreement as may be so
affected, and this Agreement shall be modified in writing accordingly. 

C.             Any claim by Subcontractor for adjustment under these paragraphs

extension, Subcontractor shall resume performance of the work when so notified
by Contractor.  Notwithstanding anything in this Subcontract to the contrary,
Contractor shall

 

9

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

not be entitled to terminate this Subcontractor in whole or in part for
convenience (or reduce the work to be performed by Subcontractor hereunder by a
change order or otherwise) unless the Prime has terminated the prime contractor,
in whole or part, or has reduced or eliminated from the prime contract the work
to be performed by the Subcontractor under this Subcontract.

B.             In case of such suspension or extension, Contractor will
reimburse and compensate Subcontractor in accordance with Article 4 for any work
furnished during the suspension or extension and when reactivating the services
at the end of the suspension or extension provided, however, that such work
shall be limited to that reasonably and necessarily required by Subcontractor
and requested or approved by Contractor.

C.             In case of termination, Contractor shall reimburse Subcontractor
for all work performed prior to termination and any costs reasonably incurred by
Subcontractor and approved by Contractor, as set forth in ARTICLE 23.

D.            In the event that a total suspension of work by Contractor exceeds
ninety (90) consecutive days, Subcontractor may terminate this Agreement by
giving Contractor thirty (30) days’ written notice.  In the event of
termination, whether initiated by Contractor or Subcontractor, Subcontractor
shall:

 

(i)             Stop performance of all work except that reasonably necessary to
carry out termination.

(ii)          Make no further monetary commitments except with consent of
Contractor.

(iii)       Assign to Contractor, upon Contractor’s request, all rights of
Subcontractor to any or all outstanding lower-tier subcontracts.

subcontracts.

reasonably request.

article, Contractor will assume all outstanding contractual obligations of
Subcontractor to third parties from the date of termination and will assume
responsibility for and take possession of all work, material, and equipment
pertaining thereto.

 

ARTICLE 25.  DISPUTES

 

All disputes arising under or relating to this subcontract shall be submitted to
Contractor’s Project Manager.  If, within thirty (30) days after such
submission, the parties have not reached a mutually acceptable resolution of the
dispute, either party must pursue the matter in the Boulder County District
Court in Boulder.  If a decision on a question is issued by the Prime under the
Contractor Subcontract, and the decision relates to Agreement between Contractor
and Subcontractor, said decision shall be binding according to its terms upon
Contractor under Contractor Subcontract and shall also be binding upon
Contractor and Subcontractor with respect to this Agreement.  However, if
Subcontractor is affected by such a decision, and if Contractor elects not to
appeal such decision, Contractor shall so notify Subcontractor within ten (10)
days of receipt of the decision.  If Subcontractor submits within ten (10) days
a written request to Contractor to appeal such decision, Contractor shall file
an appeal with the Prime.  All costs and expenses incurred by Subcontractor and
Contractor as part of such an appeal at Subcontractor’s request shall be paid by
Subcontractor and shall not be reimbursable or otherwise compensable as a cost
under this subcontract unless the Board of Contract Appeals or the court rules
that such costs are or should be recoverable.  Pending the resolution of any
dispute, Subcontractor shall proceed as directed by Contractor in writing in
accordance with the subcontract, and subject to a claim for an equitable
adjustment in (a) the Agreement price, (b) the period of performance and work
schedules, and/or (c) such other provision of this Agreement as may be so
affected, if appropriate.

 

ARTICLE 26.  WAIVER

 

No right or obligation of, or default by, either Contractor or Subcontractor
shall be deemed waived by any other waiver of the same or any other right,
obligation, default, or by any previous or subsequent forbearance or course of
dealing.

 

ARTICLE 27.  ASSIGNMENT

 

Except as otherwise provided herein, neither this Agreement nor any claim
against either party arising directly or indirectly out of or in connection with
this Agreement shall be assignable or transferable by either party or by
operation of law, without the prior written consent of the other. 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, KGH shall have the right to assign this
Subcontract to its affiliate, Kaiser Analytical Management Services, Inc.

 

 ARTICLE 28.  PATENTS AND INVENTIONS

shall acquire directly or by implication any rights in the patents and
inventions of the other party hereto.

 

10

B.             Any inventions or discoveries made or conceived by one or more
employees of Contractor or Subcontractor during the term of this Subcontract

C.             It is mutually agreed that any invention made jointly by one or
more employees of Contractor and Subcontractor in the course of work under this

Contractor and Subcontractor will equally divide the joint applications each is
to file and prosecute hereunder.  The other party shall, and hereby agrees to,
furnish the filing party with all documents, papers, assignments, or other
assistance that may be necessary or desirable in the filing and prosecution of
each such application.

D.            With respect to each joint invention, the party which elects to
