governing body of CIHA. Such appeal must be made within 30 days after receipt of the Contracting
Officer’s decision.

f.

The Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of this CONTRACT, pending final resolution of
any request for relief, claim, appeal, or action arising under or relating to the CONTRACT, and comply
with any decision of the Contracting Officer.

g.

Nothing in this CONTRACT, or any action taken by CIHA or any of its agents or employees in
connection with this CONTRACT shall be deemed to be a waiver of the sovereign immunity of CIHA
unless such waiver is explicit and in writing, and fully complies with all CIHA, Tribal, and federal
requirements for the waiver of such immunity.

h.

The Tribal Court of the Colville Confederated Tribes shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any suit that
may be filed relating to the CONTRACT, provided that this designation shall not be deemed to be a
waiver of the sovereign immunity of CIHA.
