All Subrecipient records with respect to any matters covered by this agreement shall be made available to the City of San Leandro, grantor agency, their designees or the Federal Government, at any time during normal business hours, as often as the City of San Leandro or grantor agency deems necessary, to audit, examine, and make excerpts or transcripts of all relevant data. Any deficiencies noted in audit reports must be fully cleared by the Subrecipient within 30 days after receipt by the Subrecipient. Failure of the Subrecipient to comply with the above audit requirements will constitute a violation of this contract and may result in the withholding of future payments.

This contract shall be construed and interpreted both as to validity and to performance of the parties in accordance with the laws of the State of California and the United States, as applicable. Legal actions concerning any dispute, claim or matter arising out of or in relation to this contract shall be instituted in the Superior Court of the County of Alameda, State of California, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, or any other appropriate court in Alameda County, and Subrecipient covenants and agrees to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such court in the event of such action. 8.2 Disputes. In the event of any dispute arising under this contract, the injured party shall notify the insuring party in writing of its contentions by submitting a claim therefore. The injured parry shall continue performing its obligations hereunder so long as the injuring party commences to cure such default within ten (10) days of service of such notice and completes the cure of such default within thirty (30) days after service of the notice, or such longer period as may be permitted by the injured party; provided that if the default is an immediate danger to the health, safety and general welfare, such immediate action may be necessary.
