2. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall
continue until the completion of the Project (the "Completion Date"), unless earlier terminated under Section 7

3. Toll Revenue Loss.
a. The estimated Toll Revenue Loss was calculated as set forth in Exhibit `B." However, the total

Revenue Loss is subject to:

of state appropriation authority the Department will not be obligated to provide any additional funding for the
Toll Revenue Loss.
b. The Agency must submit the final invoice on the Project to the Department within 120 days of the
Completion Date. Invoices submitted after the 120-day time period may not be paid.

adopted work program for the state fiscal year that includes the Effective Date. The Department will only
reimburse the Agency in accordance with section 339.12, Florida Statutes. The Agency will not invoice the
Department for Project costs until July 1 of the state fiscal year(s) the Project is scheduled in the Department's

TOLL REVENUE LOSS
Toll Revenue Loss Calculation:
Loss of Toll Revenue is established as $ 471.00 per Detour Day per direction (i.e., souhbound, northbound).

the Department shall notify the Agency of any necessary State Road lane closures at least seventy two (72)hours

approximated 40 Detour Days at the rate of$471.00 per direction pursuant to this Agreement, except in the event
