the delay resulting from the force majeure upon execution of an Amendment to this Agreement.

modifying the extension. A force majeure shall be an act of God,strike,lockout,or other industrial
disturbance, act of the public enemy, war, blockade, public riot, lightning, fire, flood, explosion,
failure to receive timely necessary third party approvals through no fault of the Grantee, and any
other cause,whether of the kind specifically enumerated herein or otherwise,that is not reasonably
within the control of the Grantee and/or the Department. The Grantee is responsible for the

perform the services needed for submittal of a satisfactory deliverable,at no additional cost to the
Department,within ten(10)calendar days of being notified of the unsatisfactory deliverable. If a
DEP Agreement No.:A7051,Page 6 of 16
FRDAP_FY16-17
satisfactory deliverable is not submitted within the specified timeframe,the Department may,in its
sole discretion, either: 1) terminate this Agreement for failure to perform, or 2) the Department
Grant Manager may,by letter specifying the failure of performance under this Agreement,request

notify the Grantee in writing whether the CAP proposed has been accepted. If the CAP is
not accepted,the Grantee shall have ten(10)calendar days from receipt of the Department
letter rejecting the proposal'to submit a revised proposed CAP. Failure to obtain the
Department approval of a CAP as specified above shall result in the Department's
termination of this Agreement for cause as authorized in this Agreement.
ii. Upon the Department's notice of acceptance of a proposed CAP,the Grantee shall have
ten(10)calendar days to commence implementation of the accepted plan. Acceptance of
the proposed CAP by the Department does not relieve the Grantee of any of its obligations
under the Agreement. In the event the CAP fails to correct or eliminate performance
deficiencies by Grantee, the Department shall retain the right to require additional or
further remedial steps, or to terminate this Agreement for failure to perform. No actions
approved by the Department or steps taken by the Grantee shall preclude the Department
from subsequently asserting any deficiencies in performance. The Grantee shall continue
to implement the CAP until all deficiencies are corrected. Reports on the progress of the
CAP will be made to the Department as requested by the Department Grant Manager.
iii. Failure to respond to a Department request for a CAP or failure to correct a deficiency in
the performance of the Agreement as specified by the Department may result in termination
of the Agreement.
The remedies set forth above are not exclusive and the Department reserves the right to exercise
other remedies in addition to or in lieu of those set forth above,as permitted by the Agreement.
B. If the Grantee fails to comply with the terms stated in this Agreement or with any provisions in Rule

(salary, travel, expenses, etc.). Supporting documentation must be provided for each amount for which
reimbursement is being claimed indicating that the item has been paid.Check numbers may be provided in lieu of
copies of actual checks.Each piece of documentation should clearly reflect the dates of service.Only expenditures
for categories in the approved contract budget should be reimbursed.
Listed below are examples of the types of documentation representing the minimum requirements:
(1) Salaries: A payroll register or similar documentation should be submitted. The payroll register
should show gross salary charges, fringe benefits, other deductions and net pay. If an
individual for whom reimbursement is being claimed is paid by the hour, a document
reflecting the hours worked times the rate of pay will be acceptable.
(2) Fringe Benefits: Fringe Benefits should be supported by invoices showing the amount paid on behalf of
the employee (e.g., insurance premiums paid). If the contract specifically states that
fringe benefits will be based on a specified percentage rather than the actual cost of
fringe benefits,then the calculation for the fringe benefits amount must be shown.
Exception: Governmental entities are not required to provide check numbers or
copies of checks for fringe benefits.
(3) Travel: Reimbursement for travel must be in accordance with Section 112.061,Florida Statutes,
which includes submission of the claim on the approved State travel voucher or
electronic means.
(4) Other direct costs: Reimbursement will be made based on paid invoices/receipts. If nonexpendable
property is purchased using State funds,the contract should include a provision for the
transfer of the property to the State when services are terminated.Documentation must
be provided to show compliance with Department of Management Services Rule 60A-
1.017, Florida Administrative Code, regarding the requirements for contracts which
include services and that provide for the contractor to purchase tangible personal
property as defined in Section 273.02, Florida Statutes, for subsequent transfer to the
State.
(5) In-house charges: Charges which may be of an internal nature (e.g., postage, copies, etc.) may be
reimbursed on a usage log which shows the units times the rate being charged.The rates
must be reasonable.
(6) Indirect costs: If the contract specifies that indirect costs will be paid based on a specified rate,then
the calculation should be shown.
