ARTICLE V BREACH, ENFORCEMENT AND TERMINATION SECTION 5.1 BREACH. The Parties agree that in the event either Party breaches any obligation under this Agreement or any representation made by either Party hereunder is untrue in any material respect, the other Party shall have the right to take any action at law or in equity (including actions for injunctive relief, mandamus and specific performance) it may have to enforce the payment of any amounts due or the performance of any obligations to be performed hereunder. Neither Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement except as provided in Section 5.2 and Section 5.3 hereof or as otherwise provided in this Agreement. SECTION 5.2 CITY CONVENIENCE TERMINATION. The City shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in its sole discretion, for its convenience and without cause at any time during the Term hereof upon ninety (90) days’ written notice to the County. If the City exercises its rights to terminate the Agreement pursuant to this Section, the City shall pay the County a termination fee equal to the Contract Rate in effect at the time of such termination (or any higher rate with respect to which the County has provided notice pursuant to Section 4.2) multiplied by the number of tons of City Acceptable Waste delivered to the Disposal System during the preceding twelve (12) months (or, if the City had been in breach of the Waste Disposal Covenant during such prior months, such amount as would have been delivered if the City had complied with the Waste Disposal Covenant), multiplied by the number of years remaining in the Term of the Agreement. SECTION 5.3 TERMINATION. (A) By City. Except as expressly provided herein, the City shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for cause except in the event of the failure or refusal by the County substantially to perform any material obligation under this Agreement unless such failure or refusal is excused by an Uncontrollable Circumstance; except that no such failure or refusal shall give the City the right to terminate this Agreement for cause under this subsection unless: (1) The City has given prior written notice to the County stating that a specified failure or refusal to perform exists which will, unless corrected, constitute a material breach of this Agreement on the part of the County and which will, in its opinion, give the City the right to terminate this Agreement for cause under this subsection unless such breach is corrected within a reasonable period of time, and (2) The County has neither challenged in an appropriate forum (in accordance with Section 5.5) the City’s conclusion that such failure or refusal to perform has occurred or constitutes a material breach of this Agreement nor corrected or diligently taken steps to correct such breach within a reasonable period of time not more than ninety (90) days from the date of the notice given pursuant to clause (1) of this subsection (but if the County shall have diligently taken steps to correct such breach within such reasonable period of time, the same shall not constitute a breach giving rise to the right of termination for as long as the County is continuing to take such steps to correct such breach). (B) By County. Except as expressly provided herein, the County shall have no right to terminate this Agreement for cause except in the event of the failure or refusal by the City or its Franchise Hauler to substantially perform any material obligation under this Agreement unless such failure or refusal is excused by an Uncontrollable Circumstance; except that no such failure or refusal shall give the County the right to terminate this Agreement for
