In the event that no further payments are due to Contractor, Contractor agrees to promptly pay such liquidated damages as it may owe to the City. Failure to make such payment within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of the assessment of liquidated damages may result in Contractor being debarred from participating in City contracts for a period of not less than one year. Contractors are reminded that each unexcused failure to pay promptly is an event of default under the Contract and, in addition to the liquidated damages provided for in this Section, is subject to the remedies found in Section XX.C of this Contract. Contractors are further reminded that per Section 2-92-270 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, failure to pay subcontractors as required by law and the Contract may result in the City suspending payments to Contractor and making direct payments to such subcontractors. Any such direct payments shall be from funds due and owing to the contractor.
