Common use of Extension of Terms Clause in Contracts

Extension of Terms. This Agreement may be amended to extend the term if it is determined to be in the best interest of the State. Upon signing the amendment, Contractor hereby agrees to provide services for the extended period at the rates specified in the original Agreement. Therefore, Contractor’s rates are submitted with the understanding that those same rates will be in effect, if the contract is amended to extend the term. The parties agree that CDCR/CCHCS has considered this fact in its evaluation of the rates bid or negotiated for this Agreement. Emergency contracts are subject to evaluation and negotiation and an extension of terms does not apply.
