Remedies
22. If Treasury believes that an instance of noncompliance by the Recipient or an Affiliate with
(a) this Agreement, (b) sections 404 or 406 of the PSP Extension Law, or (c) the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 as it applies to the receipt of Payroll Support has occurred, Treasury

receipt of such notice, the Recipient shall, within seven days, accept Treasury’s proposed
remedy, propose an alternative remedy, or provide information and documentation contesting
9

Treasury’s proposed determination. Treasury shall consider any such submission by the
Recipient and make a final written determination, which will state Treasury’s findings
regarding noncompliance and the remedy to be imposed.
23. If Treasury makes a final determination under paragraph 22 that an instance of
noncompliance has occurred, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, withhold any Additional
Payroll Support Payments; require the repayment of the amount of any previously disbursed
Payroll Support, with appropriate interest; require additional reporting or monitoring; initiate
suspension or debarment proceedings as authorized under 2 CFR Part 180; terminate this
Agreement; or take any such other action as Treasury, in its sole discretion, deems
appropriate.
24. Treasury may make a final determination regarding noncompliance without regard to
paragraph 22 if Treasury determines, in its sole discretion, that such determination is
necessary to protect a material interest of the Federal Government. In such event, Treasury
shall notify the Recipient of the remedy that Treasury, in its sole discretion, shall impose,
after which the Recipient may contest Treasury’s final determination or propose an
alternative remedy in writing to Treasury. Following the receipt of such a submission by the
Recipient, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, maintain or alter its final determination.
25. Any final determination of noncompliance and any final determination to take any remedial
action described herein shall not be subject to further review. To the extent permitted by law,
the Recipient waives any right to judicial review of any such determinations and further
agrees not to assert in any court any claim arising from or relating to any such determination
or remedial action.
26. Instead of, or in addition to, the remedies listed above, Treasury may refer any
noncompliance or any allegations of fraud, waste, or abuse to the Treasury Inspector General.
27. Treasury, in its sole discretion, may grant any request by the Recipient for termination of this
Agreement, which such request shall be in writing and shall include the reasons for such
termination, the proposed effective date of the termination, and the amount of any unused
Payroll Support funds the Recipient requests to return to Treasury. Treasury may, in its sole
discretion, determine the extent to which the requirements under this Agreement may cease
to apply following any such termination.
28. If Treasury determines that any remaining portion of the Payroll Support will not accomplish
the purpose of this Agreement, Treasury may terminate this Agreement in its entirety to the
extent permitted by law.
Debts
29. Any Payroll Support in excess of the amount which Treasury determines, at any time, the
Recipient is authorized to receive or retain under the terms of this Agreement constitutes a
debt to the Federal Government.

10

30. Any debts determined to be owed by the Recipient to the Federal Government shall be paid
promptly by the Recipient. A debt is delinquent if it has not been paid by the date specified
in Treasury’s initial written demand for payment, unless other satisfactory arrangements have
been made. Interest, penalties, and administrative charges shall be charged on delinquent
debts in accordance with 31 U.S.C. § 3717, 31 CFR 901.9, and paragraphs 31 and 32.
Treasury will refer any debt that is more than 180 days delinquent to Treasury’s Bureau of
the Fiscal Service for debt collection services.
31. Penalties on any debts shall accrue at a rate of not more than 6 percent per year or such other
higher rate as authorized by law.
32. Administrative charges relating to the costs of processing and handling a delinquent debt
shall be determined by Treasury.
33. The Recipient shall not use funds from other federally sponsored programs to pay a debt to
the government arising under this Agreement.

Employee as a reprisal for disclosing information to a Person listed below that the Employee
reasonably believes is evidence of gross mismanagement of a Federal contract or grant, a
gross waste of Federal funds, an abuse of authority relating to a Federal contract or grant, a

45. Unless otherwise provided in guidance issued by Treasury or the Internal Revenue Service,
the form of any Taxpayer Protection Instrument held by Treasury and any subsequent holder
13

will be treated as such form for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (for example,
a Taxpayer Protection Instrument in the form of a note will be treated as indebtedness for
purposes of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986).
46. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement in writing
entered into by the Recipient and Treasury, except that Treasury may unilaterally amend this
Agreement if required in order to comply with applicable Federal law or regulation.
47. Subject to applicable law, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, waive any term or condition
under this Agreement imposing a requirement on the Recipient or any Affiliate.
48. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective heirs,
executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.
49. The Recipient represents and warrants to Treasury that this Agreement, and the issuance and
delivery to Treasury of the Taxpayer Protection Instruments, if applicable, have been duly
authorized by all requisite corporate and, if required, stockholder action, and will not result in
the violation by the Recipient of any provision of law, statute, or regulation, or of the articles
of incorporation or other constitutive documents or bylaws of the Recipient, or breach or
constitute an event of default under any material contract to which the Recipient is a party.
50. The Recipient represents and warrants to Treasury that this Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by the Recipient and constitutes a legal, valid, and binding obligation
of the Recipient enforceable against the Recipient in accordance with its terms.
51. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original,
but all of which together shall constitute a single contract.
52. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any assignment
shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form,
each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually
executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to
the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic
Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures
and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, delivery of an executed
counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by electronic means, or confirmation of the
execution of this Agreement on behalf of a party by an email from an authorized signatory of
such party, shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this
Agreement.
53. The captions and paragraph headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of
reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.
54. This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with Federal law.
Insofar as there may be no applicable Federal law, this Agreement shall be construed in
14

accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to any rule of conflicts of
law (other than section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law) that would result
in the application of the substantive law of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
55. Nothing in this Agreement shall require any unlawful action or inaction by either party.
56. The requirement pertaining to trafficking in persons at 2 CFR 175.15(b) is incorporated
herein and made applicable to the Recipient.
57. This Agreement, together with the attachments hereto, including the Payroll Support
Program Extension Certification and any attached terms regarding Taxpayer Protection
Instruments, constitute the entire agreement of the parties relating to the subject matter hereof
and supersede any previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the
subject matter hereof. There may exist other agreements between the parties as to other
matters, which are not affected by this Agreement and are not included within this integration
clause.
58. No failure by either party to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this
Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy hereunder, and no acceptance of full or partial
Payroll Support (if applicable) or other performance by either party during the continuance of
any such breach, shall constitute a waiver of any such breach of such provision.

decision by Treasury to provide Payroll Support to the Recipient.
(2) The information and certifications provided by the Recipient in an application for

examinations, excerpts, and transcripts.
(5) No Federal appropriated funds, including Payroll Support, have been paid or will be
paid, by or on behalf of the Recipient, to any person for influencing or attempting to
influence an officer or employee of an agency, a Member of Congress, an officer or
employee of Congress, or an employee of a Member of Congress in connection with the

be the subject of criminal prosecution and also may subject me and the Recipient to civil
penalties and/or administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise.
