XIV. AMENDMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS The SUBRECIPIENT shall not obligate, encumber, spend, or otherwise utilize program funds for any activity or purpose not included or not in conformance with the budget as apportioned and as submitted to the CITY unless: (1) The SUBRECIPIENT has received explicit written approval from the CITY to undertake such actions, or (2) Budget changes may be made among approved program activities and among approved budget categories so long as the specific project activity has been approved, there is no change to the total grant amount, and the changes to the budget are documented. Any program modification request by the SUBRECIPIENT must be requested at least forty-five (45) days prior to the end of the term of this AGREEMENT. No modification to this AGREEMENT shall be binding by either party unless in writing and signed by both parties. In the event that the CITY approves any amendment to the funding allocation, the SUBRECIPIENT shall be notified in writing and such notification shall constitute an official amendment. The CITY may, at its discretion and upon provision of proper notice to the SUBRECIPIENT, amend this AGREEMENT to conform with changes in Federal, State, and/or the CITY laws, regulations, guidelines, directives, and objectives. Such amendments shall be incorporated by written amendment as a part of this AGREEMENT. XV. VIOLATION OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS A. Termination If, due to any cause, the SUBRECIPIENT fails to comply with the terns, conditions or requirements of this AGREEMENT, or any prior AGREEMENT whereby ESG funds were received by the SUBRECIPIENT, whether stated in a Federal statute or regulation, an assurance, a State plan or application, a notice of award, or elsewhere, the CITY may terminate or suspend this AGREEMENT in accordance with 2 CFR 200.339 and in accordance with 2 CFR 200.340 by giving written notice, and the CITY may request in writing that all or some of the grant funds be returned even if the SUBRECIPIENT has expended the funds. If the SUBRECIPIENT reports inaccurately, or if on audit there is a disallowance of certain expenditures, the SUBRECIPIENT agrees to remedy the acts or omissions causing the disallowance and repay the CITY all amounts spent in violation thereof. If the SUBRECIPIENT engaged in fraudulent activity to obtain and/or justify expenditure of the ESG funds granted hereunder, the SUBRECIPIENT shall be required to reimburse the CITY of all such funds that were obtained and/or spent under fraudulent circumstances, and the CITY reserves the right to take other remedies that may be legally available.
