          Subcontractor only an extension of time for completion equal to the
          delay, disruption or interference, and then only if a written claim

4.1       Subcontractor shall provide safe and sufficient facilities at all

          the Work which the Contractor, OSHA, or any other municipal inspector
          deems unsafe until corrective measures satisfactory to the Contractor

          nor make any claim for damages growing out of such stoppage. Should
          the Subcontractor neglect to take corrective measures, the Contractor
          may do so at the cost and expense of the Subcontractor. Failure on the
          part of the Contractor to stop unsafe practices shall in no way
          relieve the Subcontractor of its responsibility therefore.

          incurred by the Contractor due to Safety Violations caused in whole or
          in part by the actions of Subcontractor. Subcontractor is required to

               from Subcontractor to the Owner or Contractor in the Phase of
               Work covered by retainage due.

8.5       If at any time there shall be evidence of a lien or claim which, if
          established, is chargeable to Subcontractor, the Contractor shall have
          the right to retain out of any payment due, or to become due, under
          this Subcontract Agreement, an amount sufficient to indemnify
          Contractor and Owner against said liens or claims.

8.6       Payment made under this Subcontract Agreement shall not constitute
          acceptance of defective, faulty or improper Work and no payment shall
          release Subcontractor from any of its obligations under this
          Subcontract Agreement.

Section 9: (DISPUTES)
---------------------

9.1       Unless another remedy is provided elsewhere in this Subcontract
          Agreement, in the event any claim or dispute arises out of the
          Subcontract Agreement (a "Dispute"), either party may request that the
          parties meet within ten (10) business days of such request and seek to
          resolve the Dispute by negotiations of the appropriate officers of
          each party, with the request for resolution being passed to each
          officer at the next higher level in authority, in turn. If the Dispute
          is not settled through such negotiation within ten (10) business days
          of the first such meeting, either of the parties may request that the
          parties then attempt, in good faith, to settle the Dispute through
          nonbinding mediation under the Commercial Mediation Rules of the
          American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). If the parties cannot settle
          the Dispute through such mediation, then any Dispute shall be resolved
          by arbitration by a single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law,
          in accordance with the applicable rules of the AAA, and any judgment
          upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court
          having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding the forgoing provisions
          of this section, the right of either party to indemnification or
          contribution may, at the sole option of the party entitled to
          indemnification or contribution, be enforced in a court having
          jurisdiction thereof through any allowable procedure. The arbitrator
          shall not have authority to award punitive damages. Each party shall
          bear its own costs and attorneys' fees, and shall be determined under
          federal law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties may cancel or
          terminate this Subcontract Agreement in accordance with its terms and
          conditions without being required to follow the procedures set forth
          in this section.

10: (REMEDIES)
--------------

10.1      Should Subcontractor, materially, breach this Subcontract Agreement,
          or materially fail to prosecute the Work with promptness, diligence
          and efficiency or fail to perform any of the requirements hereof, or
          should there be filed by or against the Subcontractor a petition in
          bankruptcy or for an arrangement or reorganization, or should
          Subcontractor become insolvent or be adjudicated as bankrupt or go
          into liquidation or dissolution, either voluntarily or involuntarily
          or under a court order, or make a general assignment for the benefit
          of creditors, or otherwise acknowledge insolvency, then in any of such
          event, each of which shall constitute a material default on the
          Subcontractor's part, Contractor, may, upon twenty four (24) hours
          advance written notice by registered mail addressed to Subcontractor,
          proceed as follows:

          1.   Provide such materials, supplies, equipment and labor as may be
               necessary to complete the Work.

               the Subcontractor.

          3.   Terminate the employment of Subcontractor, enter upon the
               premises and take possession, for use in completion of the Work,
               all of the materials, supplies, tools, equipment and appliances
               of Subcontractor thereon and complete the Work, or have same

10.2      The Contractor shall have a right of set off for the cost of

          before described, including all resulting losses, damages, costs and
          expenses to Contractor, exceeds the unpaid balance of the Subcontract
          Agreement amount, Subcontractor shall pay Contractor such excess.

10.3      Should Subcontractor, at any time, fail to pay for all labor,
          materials, supplies or equipment used by Subcontractor in the Work
          when due, Contractor, at its option, may pay for all labor, materials,
          equipment or supplies used by Subcontractor in the Work, when it
          becomes due. Contractor, at its option, may pay for same out of funds
          advanced to Contractor by Owner for Subcontractor and debit
          Subcontractor's account; or may, at its discretion, pay at any time,
          claims for labor, materials, equipment or supplies used in the Work
          and Subcontractor shall pay Contractor the amount of any such payments
          upon demand.

10.4      Should Subcontractor default in any of the provisions of this
          Subcontract Agreement and should Contractor employ an attorney to
          enforce any provision hereof, or to collect damages for breach of this
          Subcontract Agreement, or to recover on any bonds or letters of credit
          provided by Subcontractor to Contractor, then Subcontractor and its
          surety, if applicable, agree to pay Contractor such attorney's fees
          and costs as it may expend therein. As against the obligations herein
          contained, Subcontractor and its surety waive all rights of exemption.

10.5      Should Contractor default in any of the provisions of the Subcontract
          Agreement and should Subcontractor employ an attorney to enforce any
          provision hereof, or to collect damages for breach of the Subcontract
          Agreement, or to recover on any bonds or letters of credit provided by
          Contractor to Subcontractor, then Contractor and its surety, if
          applicable, agree to pay Subcontractor such attorney's fees and costs
          as it may expend therein. As against the obligations herein contained,
          Contractor and its surety waive all rights of exemption.

10.6      The rights and remedies granted to Contractor under this Article and
          pursuant to the other provisions of this Subcontract Agreement, shall
          be cumulative and are not intended to be in lieu of any legal right or
          remedy which Contractor may have against Subcontractor for breach of
          this Subcontract Agreement or default hereunder, afforded by State or
          Federal Law.

          Subcontractor hereby agrees to repair or replace any and all Work,
          together with any other adjacent work which may be displaced in so
          doing, that may prove not to be in accordance with the requirements of
          the Contract Documents or that may be defective in its workmanship or
          material furnished within the guarantee period specified, without any
          expense whatsoever to Owner or Contractor, ordinary wear and tear and
          unusual abuse or neglect excepted. All Work so repaired or replaced
          will be further unconditionally guaranteed for the longer period of
          the ninety (90) or the remainder of the original one (1) year term.
          The bonds and/or letters of credit provided hereunder are to remain in

          and the Subcontractor will pay the cost hereof upon demand. Contractor
          or Owner shall be entitled to all costs, including attorney's fees and
          costs, necessarily incurred upon Subcontractor's refusal to pay the
          above costs.

13.3      The obligations of Subcontractor set forth above shall survive the
          termination of this Subcontract Agreement.

Section 14:
