Such changes may include, but are not limited to, changes in the exact scope of work to be performed (including modification, substitution, addition, or deletion of required tasks) and changes to the schedule of performance. If any such Change Notice causes an increase or decrease to Contractor’s cost of, or the time required for, performance of the work, an equitable adjustment in the compensation to Contractor and/or in the schedule for the performance of the work shall be made by the County to reflect such an increase or decrease. Notwithstanding any dispute or delay in arriving at a mutually acceptable equitable adjustment, Contractor shall proceed in accordance with all Change Notices. Within thirty (30) days after receipt of any Change Notice which, in Contractor’s opinion, lacks an adequate adjustment, Contractor must submit to the County a written statement requesting a modified adjustment; otherwise, Contractor will forfeit its right to any such modified adjustment. The County retains the final right to determine adjustments hereunder.
