         this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Upon the issuance of

         such a decision or the issuance of a ruling having such effect of loss of
         Federal funds, then either party shall have the right immediately to reopen

         negotiations with respect to a substitute for such article, section or portion
         of this Agreement involved. The parties agree to use their best efforts to

         contest any such loss of federal funds which may be threatened. In the event
         that the Legislature fails to implement Section 7.1, any or all articles may

         be reopened at the option of CSEA or the State, and renegotiated. In the
         event that any other article, section or portion of this Agreement fails to be

         implemented by the Legislature, then in that event, such article, section or
         portion may be reopened by CSEA or the State and renegotiated. During

         the course of any reopened negotiations any provision of this Agreement
         not affected by such reopener shall remain in full force and effect.
