</li>
<li>
a description of each discrete item of work performed,
</li>
<li>
the name of the person performing either all work or each discrete item of work;
</li>
<li>
the date on which each discrete item of work was performed;
</li>
<li>
a descriptive list of all costs and expenses incurred; and,

<li>
the total amount of fees, costs and expenses owed (after deducting any remaining balance from the <strong>Down Payment</strong>).
</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<strong>Payment of Fees, Costs and Expenses</strong>. Any fees, costs or expenses owed to the <strong>Developer</strong> will first be deducted against the <strong>Down Payment</strong>. Once the down payment is exhausted, the <strong>Client</strong> shall pay all monies owed within <input class="form-control paper" value="7 days"> after the date on which <strong>Developer</strong> invoices the <strong>Client</strong>.
</p>
<p>
By way of illustration only, if the <strong>Developer</strong> invoices the <strong>Client</strong> via e-mail on Monday, July 2, 2020, then the <strong>Client</strong> must deliver payment to the <strong>Developer</strong> any time before Tuesday, July 10, 2020.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<strong>Immediate Invoicing and Payment for Fees</strong>. Regardless of any other provision in this <strong>Agreement</strong> to the contrary, the <strong>Developer</strong> may immediately invoice the <strong>Client</strong> when the total amount of fees, costs or expenses presently due is <input class="form-control paper" value="$1,000"> or more.

</li>
<li>
<p>
<strong>Consequences of Non-Payment</strong>. Regardless of any provision in this <strong>Agreement</strong> to the contrary, the parties agree that the <strong>Client</strong>’s failure to timely pay any and all invoiced fees, costs, and expenses is a total breach of this <strong>Agreement</strong>, and in that event the <strong>Developer</strong> retains the right to either:
</p>
<ol>
<li>
stop working on the <strong>Development Project</strong> until the <strong>Client</strong> pays all monies owed;
</li>
<li>
immediately terminate the contract. In this event, the termination will be effective as of the date the <strong>Developer</strong> gives the <strong>Client</strong> written notice of termination pursuant to this section; or,
</li>
<li>
continue to work on the <strong>Development Project</strong>. However, in the event the <strong>Developer</strong> continues to work pursuant to this section, the <strong>Developer</strong>’s fees for future work performed on the <strong>Development Project</strong> will increase to <input class="form-control paper" value="$2000 per day">, and the <strong>Client</strong> agrees to and shall pay this increased daily fee. This fee increase will remain in effect unless and until the <strong>Client</strong> pays all outstanding monies owed, at which time all fees for future services will reduce back to the rate listed in section 3.2.
</li>
</ol>
</li>
</ol>
</li>

<li>
consult with the <strong>Developer</strong> on costs and expenses necessary to complete the <strong>Development Project</strong>, and to authorize the purchase of expenses greater than <input class="form-control paper" value="$100"> in value.
</li>
</ol>
<p>
Furthermore, the <strong>Client</strong> warrants that it has given the <strong>Client Representative</strong> the agency and mandate described above, and the <strong>Client</strong> shall not give instructions; amend the details or enlarge the scope of the <strong>Development Project</strong>; or consult on development costs except through the <strong>Client Representative</strong>. The <strong>Client</strong> may replace the <strong>Client Representative</strong> with another at any time, and this replacement becomes effective once the <strong>Developer</strong> has received written notice of the change from the <strong>Client</strong>.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
<strong>Additions to the Development Project</strong>. The <strong>Client</strong> (only through the <strong>Client Representative</strong>) and <strong>Developer</strong> may agree in writing at any time to amend the details or enlarge the scope of the <strong>Development Project</strong> as set out in <strong>Exhibit A</strong>.

If the <strong>Client</strong> desires such an amendment, but the <strong>Developer</strong> does not agree, the <strong>Client</strong> may attempt to terminate this <strong>Agreement</strong> by giving the <strong>Developer</strong> written notice of termination pursuant to this section.
</p>
<p>
If the <strong>Developer</strong> does not agree, in writing, to the <strong>Client</strong>’s proposed amendment within <input class="form-control paper" value="14 days"> after the <strong>Developer</strong> receives written notice pursuant to this section, this <strong>Agreement</strong> is terminated.
