FINANCING CAPITAL MODIFICATIONS. (A) City Financing. <br />The City shall provide fmancing for any Capital Modification for which it is fmancially <br />responsible under this Article, and, in the event the Authority is selected to implement the <br />Capital Modification, shall make the proceeds of the financing available to the Authority to pay <br />the negotiated price, as well as the price of any agreed change orders, on the milestone <br />schedule and subject to any retainage or other conditions negotiated by the parties pursuant to <br />this Section. <br /> <br />(B) Authority Financing. The City may elect, notwithstanding the provisions <br />of subsection (A) of this Section, to request that the Authority fmance all or any portion of the <br />cost of any Capital Modification which the Authority is implementing pursuant to this Article. <br />The terms and conditions of any such fmancing and its impact on the Service Contract and <br />Service Fee shall be negotiated by the parties.

The Authority <br />shall have no right to object to any such Capital Modification, however, and such Capital <br />Modification shall become part of the Facilities upon passing the tests for Acceptance, so long <br />as the City affords the Authority appropriate price, schedule, performance and other relief <br />necessary to avoid any such effect. <br />(B) City Operating Rights.

The City's rights hereunder do not apply to <br />Capital Modifications made to the Facilities at the direction of the Authority. <br /> <br />66 <br />
