may be recovered from Grantee by deduction from subsequent payments under this Grant or other
Grants, grants or agreements between the State and Grantee or by other appropriate methods and
collected as a debt due to the State. Such funds shall not be paid to any person or entity other than the
State.

Effective Date, only if (1) the Grant Funds involve federal funding and (2) federal laws, rules and
regulations applicable to the Work provide for such retroactive payments to the Grantee. Any such
retroactive payments shall comply with State Fiscal Rules and be made in accordance with the
provisions of this Grant or any Exhibit. Grantee shall initiate any payment requests by submitting

14. BREACH
A. Defined
In addition to any breaches specified in other sections of this Grant, the failure of either Party to perform

CDOT – Aeronautics Division
CDAG: 12-FNL-01
AeronauticsGrant.01.Jun11 – originated from approved OSC Grant template Rev 1/12/11 Page 9
with due diligence, the State may exercise any of the remedies set forth in §15. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary herein, the State, in its sole discretion, need not provide advance notice or a cure period and
may immediately terminate this Grant in whole or in part if reasonably necessary to preserve public safety
or to prevent immediate public crisis.
15. REMEDIES
If Grantee is in breach under any provision of this Grant, the State shall have all of the remedies listed in
this §15 in addition to all other remedies set forth in other sections of this Grant following the notice and
cure period set forth in §14(B), provided however, that the State may terminate this Grant pursuant to
§15(B) without a breach. The State may exercise any or all of the remedies available to it, in its sole
discretion, concurrently or consecutively.
A. Termination for Cause and/or Breach
If Grantee fails to perform any of its obligations hereunder with such diligence as is required to ensure its
completion in accordance with the provisions of this Grant and in a timely manner, the State may notify
Grantee of such non-performance in accordance with the provisions herein. If Grantee thereafter fails to
promptly cure such non-performance within the cure period, the State, at its option, may terminate this
entire Grant or such part of this Grant as to which there has been delay or a failure to properly perform.
Exercise by the State of this right shall not be deemed a breach of its obligations hereunder. Grantee shall
continue performance of this Grant to the extent not terminated, if any.
i. Obligations and Rights
To the extent specified in any termination notice, Grantee shall not incur further obligations or render
further performance hereunder past the effective date of such notice, and shall terminate outstanding
orders and subcontracts with third parties. However, Grantee shall complete and deliver to the State all
Work, Services and Goods not cancelled by the termination notice and may incur obligations as are
necessary to do so within this Grant’s terms. At the sole discretion of the State, Grantee shall assign to
the State all of Grantee's right, title, and interest under such terminated orders or subgrants. Upon
termination, Grantee shall take timely, reasonable and necessary action to protect and preserve
property in the possession of Grantee in which the State has an interest. All materials owned by the
State in the possession of Grantee shall be immediately returned to the State. All Work Product, at the
option of the State, shall be delivered by Grantee to the State and shall become the State’s property.
ii. Payments
The State shall reimburse Grantee only for accepted performance up to the date of termination. If, after
termination by the State, it is determined that Grantee was not in breach or that Grantee's action or
inaction was excusable, such termination shall be treated as a termination in the public interest and the
rights and obligations of the Parties shall be the same as if this Grant had been terminated in the public
interest, as described herein.
iii. Damages and Withholding
Notwithstanding any other remedial action by the State, Grantee also shall remain liable to the State
for any damages sustained by the State by virtue of any breach under this Grant by Grantee and the
State may withhold any payment to Grantee for the purpose of mitigating the State’s damages, until
such time as the exact amount of damages due to the State from Grantee is determined. The State may
withhold any amount that may be due to Grantee as the State deems necessary to protect the State,
including loss as a result of outstanding liens or claims of former lien holders, or to reimburse the
State for the excess costs incurred in procuring similar goods or services. Grantee shall be liable for
excess costs incurred by the State in procuring from third parties replacement Work, Services or
substitute Goods as cover.
B. Early Termination in the Public Interest
The State is entering into this Grant for the purpose of carrying out the public policy of the State of
Colorado, as determined by its Governor, General Assembly, and/or courts. If this Grant ceases to further
the public policy of the State, the State, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Grant in whole or in part.
Exercise by the State of this right shall not constitute a breach of the State’s obligations hereunder. This
subsection shall not apply to a termination of this Grant by the State for cause or breach by Grantee, which
shall be governed by §15(A) or as otherwise specifically provided for herein.
CDOT – Aeronautics Division
CDAG: 12-FNL-01
AeronauticsGrant.01.Jun11 – originated from approved OSC Grant template Rev 1/12/11 Page 10
i. Method and Content
The State shall notify Grantee of such termination in accordance with §16. The notice shall specify the
effective date of the termination and whether it affects all or a portion of this Grant.
ii. Obligations and Rights
Upon receipt of a termination notice, Grantee shall be subject to and comply with the same obligations
and rights set forth in §15(A)(i).
iii. Payments
If this Grant is terminated by the State pursuant to this §15(B), Grantee shall be paid an amount which
bears the same ratio to the total reimbursement under this Grant as the Services satisfactorily
performed bear to the total Services covered by this Grant, less payments previously made.
Additionally, if this Grant is less than 60% completed, the State may reimburse Grantee for a portion
of actual out-of-pocket expenses (not otherwise reimbursed under this Grant) incurred by Grantee
which are directly attributable to the uncompleted portion of Grantee’s obligations hereunder;
provided that the sum of any and all reimbursement shall not exceed the maximum amount payable to
Grantee hereunder.
C. Remedies Not Involving Termination
The State, in its sole discretion, may exercise one or more of the following remedies in addition to other
remedies available to it:
i. Suspend Performance
Suspend Grantee’s performance with respect to all or any portion of this Grant pending necessary
corrective action as specified by the State without entitling Grantee to an adjustment in price/cost or
performance schedule. Grantee shall promptly cease performance and incurring costs in accordance
with the State’s directive and the State shall not be liable for costs incurred by Grantee after the
suspension of performance under this provision.
ii. Withhold Payment
Withhold payment to Grantee until corrections in Grantee’s performance are satisfactorily made and
completed.
iii. Deny Payment
Deny payment for those obligations not performed, that due to Grantee’s actions or inactions, cannot
be performed or, if performed, would be of no value to the State; provided, that any denial of payment
shall be reasonably related to the value to the State of the obligations not performed.
iv. Removal
Demand removal of any of Grantee’s employees, agents, or Subgrantees whom the State deems
incompetent, careless, insubordinate, unsuitable, or otherwise unacceptable, or whose continued
relation to this Grant is deemed to be contrary to the public interest or not in the State’s best interest.
v. Intellectual Property
If Grantee infringes on a patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property right
while performing its obligations under this Grant, Grantee shall, at the State’s option (a) obtain for the
State or Grantee the right to use such products and services; (b) replace any Goods, Services, or other
product involved with non-infringing products or modify them so that they become non-infringing; or,
(c) if neither of the foregoing alternatives are reasonably available, remove any infringing Goods,
Services, or products and refund the price paid therefore to the State.
16. NOTICES and REPRESENTATIVES
Each individual identified below is the principal representative of the designating Party. All notices
required to be given hereunder shall be hand delivered with receipt required or sent by certified or

Guidance. Evaluation and Review of Grantee’s performance shall be part of the normal Grant
administration process and Grantee’s performance will be systematically recorded in the statewide
Contract Management System. Areas of Evaluation and Review shall include, but shall not be limited to
quality, cost and timeliness. Collection of information relevant to the performance of Grantee’s
obligations under this Grant shall be determined by the specific requirements of such obligations and
shall include factors tailored to match the requirements of Grantee’s obligations. Such performance
information shall be entered into the statewide Contract Management System at intervals established

address or correct any identified problem in a timely manner and maintain work progress.
Should the final performance Evaluation and Review determine that Grantee demonstrated a gross
failure to meet the performance measures established hereunder, the Executive Director of the Colorado
Department of Personnel and Administration (Executive Director), upon request by CDOT and showing
of good cause, may debar Grantee and prohibit Grantee from bidding on future Grants. Grantee may

exercising the debarment protest and appeal rights provided in CRS §§24-109-106, 107, 201 or 202,

CDAG: 12-FNL-01
EXHIBIT B -RESOLUTION
WHEREAS:
The General Assembly of the State of Colorado declared in Title 43 of the Colorado revised Statutes, Article 10, 1991 in
CRS §43-10-101 (the Act) “… that there exists a need to promote the safe operations and accessibility of general aviation
in this state; that improvements to general aviation transportation facilities will promote diversified economic development
across the state; and that accessibility to airport facilities for residents of this state is crucial in the event of a medical or
other type of emergency…”
The Act created the Colorado Aeronautical Board (“the Board”) to establish policy and procedures for distribution of
monies in the Aviation Fund and created the Division of Aeronautics (“the Division”) to carry out the directives of the
Board, including technical and planning assistance to airports and the administration of the state aviation system grant
program. SEE CRS §43-10-103 and C.R.S. §43-10-105 and CRS §43-10-108.5 of the Act.
Any entity operating a public-accessible airport in the state may file an application for and be recipient of a grant to be used
solely for aviation purposes. The Division is authorized to assist such airports as request assistance by means of a
Resolution passed by the applicant’s duly-authorized governing body, which understands that all funds shall be used
exclusively for aviation purposes and that it will comply with all grant procedures and requirements as defined in the
Division’s Aviation Grant Management Manual, revised 2009, (“the Manual”).
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
The City of Fort Collins & the City of Loveland as a duly authorized governing body of the grant applicant, hereby
