F. The CP shall include the provisions of this Nondiscrimination/Sexual Harassment Clause in every subcontract so that those provisions applicable to subcontractors will be binding upon each subcontractor.

Accordingly, the CP and each subcontractor shall have an obligation to inform the Commonwealth if, at any time during the term of this Agreement, it becomes aware of any actions or occurrences that would result in violation of these provisions. H. The Commonwealth may cancel or terminate this Agreement and all money due or to become due under this Agreement may be forfeited for a violation of the terms and conditions of this Nondiscrimination/Sexual Harassment Clause for cause pursuant to and in accordance with the termination provisions set forth herein.
