All requests and communications about the Work to be performed under this Agreement shall be made through the AOC Project Manager. Any Notice from the Contractor to the AOC shall be in writing and shall be delivered the AOC Project Manager as follows: Judicial Council of California Administrative Office of the Courts Information Technology Services Office Attn: [TBD], AOC Project Manager ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ San Francisco, CA 94102-3688 Other than for Notices, the AOC Project Manager may be contacted as follows: Telephone: [TBD] Facsimile: [TBD] Email: [TBD] Notice to the Contractor shall be directed in writing to: Other Contractor information: Telephone: [TBD] Facsimile: [TBD] Email: [TBD] The Contractor shall conduct all work consistent with professional standards for the industry and type of work being performed under the Agreement. The AOC may, at any time, by written Notice to the Contractor, require the Contractor to stop all, or any part, of the Work of this Agreement, for a period up to ninety (90) Days after the Notice is delivered to the Contractor, and for any further period to which the parties may agree. The Stop Work Order shall be specifically identified as such and shall indicate it is issued under this provision. Upon receipt of the Stop Work Order, the Contractor shall immediately comply with its terms and take all reasonable steps to minimize the incurrence of costs allocable to the Work covered by the Stop Work Order during the period of Work stoppage. Within a period of ninety (90) Days after a Stop Work Order is delivered to the Contractor, or within any extension of that period to which the parties shall have agreed, the AOC shall either: Cancel the Stop Work Order; or Terminate the Work covered by the Stop Work Order as provided for in either of the termination provisions of this Agreement. If a Stop Work Order issued under this provision is canceled or the period of the Stop Work Order or any extension thereof expires, the Contractor shall resume Work. The AOC shall make an equitable adjustment in the delivery schedule, the Contract Amount, or both, and the Agreement shall be modified, in writing, accordingly, if: The Stop Work Order results in an increase in the time required for, or in the Contractor’s cost properly allocable to the performance of any part of this Agreement; and The Contractor asserts its right to an equitable adjustment within thirty (30) Days after the end of the period of Work stoppage; however, if the AOC decides the facts justify the action, the AOC may receive and act upon a proposal submitted at any time before final payment under this Agreement. If a Stop Work Order is not canceled and the Work covered by the Stop Work Order is terminated in accordance with the Termination Other Than For Cause provision or the AOC’s Obligation Subject to Availability of Funds provision, as set forth under Exhibit B, the AOC shall allow reasonable costs resulting from the Stop Work Order in arriving at the termination settlement. The AOC shall not be liable to the Contractor for loss of profits because of the Stop Work Order issued under this provision. This Agreement is based upon the unique expertise of the Contractor. Therefore, in addition to the prohibition against assignment under Exhibit A.A, Standard Provisions paragraph 4, it is the policy of the AOC to withhold consent from proposed assignments, subcontracts, or notations when such transfer of responsibility would operate to decrease the AOC's likelihood of receiving performance under this Agreement. No performance of this Agreement or any portion thereof may be assigned or subcontracted by the Contractor without the express written consent of the AOC, and any attempt by the Contractor to assign or subcontract any performance of this Agreement without the express written consent of the AOC shall be void and shall constitute a breach of this Agreement. If the Contractor is authorized by the AOC to subcontract or assign, all the terms of this Agreement shall be included in such subcontract or assignment.
