E. Project Termination
1. Prior to the completion of the Project, either party may terminate this Agreement by providing the other party with thirty (30) days’ written notice of such termination.

If the State terminates without cause the Agreement prior to the end of the Project Performance Period, the Grantee shall take all reasonable measures to prevent further costs to the State under this Agreement.

F. Hold Harmless
