The State may immediately terminate this grant contract agreement if the State finds that there has been a failure to comply with the provisions of this grant contract, that reasonable progress has not been made or that the purposes for which the funds were granted have not been or will not be fulfilled. The State may take action to protect the interests of the State of Minnesota, including the refusal to disburse additional funds and requiring the return of all or part of the funds already disbursed. B.Termination by the Commissioner of Administration. The Commissioner of Administration may unilaterally cancel the award contract if further performance under this award would not serve agency purposes or is not in the best interest of the State.
