(d)                                                         (1) 								                If DHS denies the Contractor’s SAFETY Act designation (or certification) application, the Contractor may submit a request for an equitable adjustment within 30 days of DHS’s notification of denial.                                                            (2) 								                The Contracting Officer shall either-                                                                           (i) 										                    Make an equitable adjustment to the contract price based on evidence of the resulting increase or decrease in the Contractor’s costs and/or an equitable adjustment to other terms and conditions based on lack of SAFETY Act designation (or certification); or                                                                              (ii) 										                    At the sole option of the Government, terminate this contract for the convenience of the Government in place of an equitable adjustment.                                                                                                           (3) 								                A failure of the parties to agree on the equitable adjustment will be considered to be a dispute in accordance with the "Disputes" clause of this contract.                                                            (4) 								                Unless first terminated, the Contractor shall continue contract performance during establishment of any equitable adjustment.
