Common use of Termination for Convenience of the State Clause in Contracts

Termination for Convenience of the State. The State may terminate this contract at any time by giving written notice to the Recipient of such termination and specifying the effective date thereof, at least thirty (30) days before the effective date of such termination. In that event, all finished or unfinished documents and other materials as described in paragraph 16 above shall, at the option of the State, become the State's property. If the contract is terminated by the State as provided herein, the Recipient shall be reimbursed for that portion of the actual out-of-pocket expenses not otherwise reimbursed under this contract which were incurred by the Recipient during the contract period and which are directly attributable to the Recipient’s performance of this contract. If this contract is terminated due to the fault of the Recipient or its subcontractors, paragraph 16 shall apply.
