§ 3.1 General 

§ 3.1.1 The
Design-Builder shall comply with any applicable licensing requirements in the jurisdiction where the Project is located. The Design-Builder shall be an independent contractor and not an agent or employee of the Owner, nor shall the Owner and the
Design-Builder be, or be construed to be, partners, joint venturers or otherwise engaged in a joint enterprise or undertaking. 
 § 3.1.2 The Design-Builder shall designate in writing a representative who is authorized to act on the
Design-Builder’s behalf with respect to the Project. 
 §
3.1.3 The Design-Builder shall perform the Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. The Design-Builder shall not be relieved of the obligation to perform the Work in accordance with the
Design-Build Documents by the activities, tests, inspections or approvals of the Owner. 
 § 3.1.3.1 The Design-Builder shall perform the Work in compliance with applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful orders of public
authorities. If the Design-Builder performs Work contrary to applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities, the Design-Builder shall be responsible for such Work and shall bear the costs
attributable to correction. 
 § 3.1.3.2 Neither the Design-Builder nor any Contractor, Consultant, or Architect shall be obligated to perform any act which they reasonably believe will violate any applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and
regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities. If the Design-Builder reasonably determines that implementation of any instruction received from the Owner, including those in the Owner’s Criteria, would cause a violation of any applicable
laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities, the Design-Builder shall notify the Owner in writing. Upon verification by the Owner that a change to the Owner’s Criteria is required to remedy
the violation, the Owner and the Design-Builder shall execute a Modification in accordance with Article 6.

Architect and the Design-Builder’s other Consultants are performed in the sole interest of, and for the exclusive benefit of, the Design-Builder, so that the Owner’s only recourse for design and professional services provided under this
Agreement is against the Design-Builder, unless the Design-Builder assigns its rights against any of the Architect or other Consultants to the Owner in accordance with Section 3.1.15 or otherwise in writing or the Design-Builder ceases to exist
or is render insolvent. 
 § 3.1.7 The Design-Builder, with the assistance of the Owner, shall prepare and file documents required to obtain necessary approvals of governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the Project.

Design-Builder shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to comply with all rules and regulations promulgated by the Owner, including but not limited to the Owner’s safety rules, in connection with the use and occupancy of the Project site
and any areas and buildings adjacent to the site of the Work. 
 § 5.10 Cutting and Patching 

The Design-Builder shall not cut, patch or otherwise alter fully or partially completed construction by the Owner or a separate contractor except with written
consent of the Owner and of such separate contractor; such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Design-Builder shall not unreasonably withhold from the Owner or a separate contractor the Design-Builder’s consent to cutting or
otherwise altering the Work. 
 § 5.11 Cleaning Up 

§ 5.11.1 The
Design-Builder shall keep the site of the Project and adjacent areas and buildings free from accumulation of waste materials or rubbish caused by operations under the Contract. At completion of the Work, the Design-Builder shall remove waste
materials, rubbish, the Design-Builder’s tools, construction equipment, machinery and surplus materials from and about the Project. 
 § 5.11.2 If the Design-Builder fails to clean up as provided in the Design-Build Documents, the Owner may do so and
Owner shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Design-Builder. 
 § 5.12 Access to Work

§ 5.13 Construction by Owner or by Separate Contractors 

§ 5.13.1 Owner’s Right to Perform Construction and to Award Separate Contracts 

§ 5.13.1.1 The Owner
reserves the right to perform construction or operations related to the Project with the Owner’s own forces; and to award separate contracts in connection with other portions of the Project, or other construction or operations on the Project
site, under terms and conditions identical or substantially similar to this Contract, including those terms and conditions related to insurance and waiver of subrogation. The Owner shall notify the Design-Builder promptly after execution of any
separate contract. If the Design-Builder claims that delay or additional cost is involved because of such action by the Owner, the Design-Builder shall make a Claim as provided in Article 14. 

§ 5.13.1.2 When
separate contracts are awarded for different portions of the Project or other construction or operations on the site, the term “Design-Builder” in the Design-Build Documents in each case shall mean the person or entity that executes each
separate contract with the Owner. 
 § 5.13.1.3 The Design-Builder shall participate with other separate contractors and the Owner in reviewing their construction schedules. The Design-Builder shall make any revisions to the construction schedule deemed
necessary after a joint review and mutual agreement. The construction schedules shall then constitute the schedules to be used by the Design-Builder, separate contractors and the Owner until subsequently revised. 

§ 5.13.1.4 Unless
otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents, when the Owner performs construction or operations related to the Project with the Owner’s own forces or separate contractors, the Owner shall be deemed to be subject to the same obligations,

contractor that would render it unsuitable for proper execution and results of the Design-Builder’s Work. Failure of the Design-Builder to report shall constitute an acknowledgment that the
Owner’s or separate contractor’s completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the Design-Builder’s Work, except as to defects not then reasonably discoverable. 

§ 5.14.3 The
Design-Builder shall reimburse the Owner for costs the Owner incurs that are payable to a separate contractor because of the Design-Builder’s delays, improperly timed activities or defective construction. The Owner shall be responsible to the
Design-Builder for costs the Design-Builder incurs because of a separate contractor’s delays, improperly timed activities, damage to the Work or defective construction. Any such reimbursement or responsibility shall be as set forth in a Change
Order. 
 § 5.14.4 The Design-Builder shall promptly remedy damage the Design-Builder wrongfully causes to completed or partially completed construction or to property of the Owner or separate contractors as provided in
Section 10.2.5.

Section 5.10. 
 § 5.15 Owner’s Right to Clean Up 

If a dispute arises among the Design-Builder, separate contractors and the Owner as to the responsibility under their respective contracts for maintaining the
premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish, the Owner may clean up and will allocate the cost among those responsible. 
 §5.16 Start-Up 
 As the completion of each portion of the Project approaches, the Design-Builder shall direct the testing, start-up and check-out of utilities and operating systems and equipment in accordance with the Contract Documents. The testing,
start-up and check-out shall be thorough and conducted in such a manner so as to discover any defects. The Design-Builder shall report any defects discovered to the
Owner in writing. 
 §5.17 Training 
 During the testing, start-up and check-out of all utilities and operating systems and equipment described in Section 5.16, the Design-Builder shall provide for the Owner’s maintenance
personnel to receive training in the proper operation of, and routine maintenance on, all utilities, operating systems and equipment in accordance with Contract Documents. The Design-Builder shall videotape such training for the Owner’s
subsequent use. 
 ARTICLE 6     CHANGES IN THE WORK 

§ 6.1 General 

§ 6.1.1 Changes in
the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the Contract, by Change Order or Change Directive, subject to the limitations stated in this Article 6 and elsewhere in the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 6.1.2 A Change
Order shall be based upon agreement between the Owner and Design-Builder. The Owner may issue a Change Directive without agreement by the Design-Builder. 

§ 6.1.3 Changes in
the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Design-Build Documents, and the Design-Builder shall proceed promptly with changes, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order or Change Directive. Except as permitted by Sections 6.3
and 9.7, a change in the Contract Sum, the Contract Time or the Design-Build Documents shall be accomplished only by Change Order. Accordingly, no course of conduct or dealings between the Owner and the Design-Builder, nor express or implied
acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work, and except in relation to a change order proposed by Design-Builder and rejected by Owner based on Owner’s contention that the proposed change is not necessary because it already is included
in the existing scope of the Work, no claim that the Owner has been unjustly enriched by any alteration of or addition to the Work, shall be the basis for any claim for an increase in any amount due under the Design-Build Documents, including the
Contract Sum, or an increase in any time for performance under the Design-Build Documents, including the Contract Time.

 § 6.2 Change Orders 

A Change Order is a written instrument signed by the Owner and Design-Builder stating their agreement upon all of the following: 

.1    The change in the Work and the Design-Build
Documents; 
 .2    The amount of the adjustment, if any,
in the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation; and 

.3    The extent of
the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time. 
 Agreement on a Change Order shall constitute a final settlement of all matters relating to the change in
the Work that is the subject of the Change Order, including but not limited to, all direct and indirect costs and consequential damages associated with such change and any adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Contract Time, the
Design-Build Documents and the construction schedule. 
 § 6.3 Change Directives 

§ 6.3.1 A Change Directive is a written order signed by the Owner
directing a change in the Work or the Design-Build Documents prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation, or Contract
Time. The Owner may by Change Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in the Work consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions, the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the adjustment in
the Design-Builder’s compensation, and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly. 
 §
6.3.2 A Change Directive shall be used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change Order. 

§ 6.3.3 If the Change Directive provides for an adjustment
to the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, an adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation, the adjustment shall be based on one of the following methods: 

.1    Mutual
acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation; 
 .2    Unit prices stated in the Design-Build Documents or subsequently agreed upon; 

.3    Cost to be
determined in a manner agreed upon by the Owner and the Design-Builder and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; or 

.4    As provided
in Section 6.3.7. 
 § 6.3.4 If unit prices are stated in the Design-Build Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally contemplated are materially changed in a proposed Change Order or Change Directive so that
application of such unit prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or Design-Builder, the applicable unit prices shall be adjusted by Change Order. 

§ 6.3.5 Upon
receipt of a Change Directive, the Design-Builder shall promptly proceed with the change in the Work involved and advise the Owner of the Design-Builder’s agreement or disagreement with the method, if any, provided in the Change Directive for
determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation, or Contract Time. 

§ 6.3.6 A Change
Directive signed by the Design-Builder indicates the Design-Builder’s agreement therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation,
and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order. 
 § 6.3.7 If the Design-Builder does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract
Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the method for adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation, the Owner shall determine the method and the adjustment on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those
performing the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase, an amount for overhead and profit as set forth in the Agreement, or if no such amount is set forth in the Agreement, a reasonable amount. If the Design-Builder does
not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment of the Contract Time, the method and adjustment shall be determined by extending the Contract Time by one work day for each work day of actual excusable delay in accordance the
Design-Build Documents. In such case, and also under

Section 6.3.3.3, the Design-Builder shall keep and present, in such form as the Owner may prescribe, an itemized accounting of costs and additional time with appropriate supporting data and
documentation. Unless otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents, costs for the purposes of this Section 6.3.7 shall be limited to the following: 

.1    Additional
costs of professional services; 
 .2    Costs of labor, including social security, unemployment insurance, fringe benefits required by agreement or custom, and workers’ compensation insurance; 

.3    Costs of
materials, supplies and equipment, including cost of transportation, whether incorporated or consumed; 
 .4    Rental costs of machinery and equipment, exclusive of hand tools, whether rented from the Design-Builder or others; 

.5    Costs of
premiums for all bonds and insurance, permit fees, and sales, use or similar taxes related to the Work; and 
 .6    Additional costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change. 

Unless otherwise established in the Design-Build Documents, (1) the rental value of the Design-Builder’s own equipment shall not exceed the rates in
the current edition of “Compilation of Rental Rates for Construction Equipment” prepared by Associated Equipment Distributors, Oak Brook, Illinois, and (2) the aggregate amounts charged to the Owner for such equipment shall not exceed
the respective fair market values. 
 § 6.3.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Design-Builder to the Owner for a deletion or change that results in a net decrease in the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment, in the
Design-Builder’s compensation, shall be actual net cost. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on the basis of net increase, if
any, with respect to that change. 
 § 6.3.9 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Change Directive to the Owner, the Design-Builder may request payment for Work completed under the Change Directive in Applications for Payment in accordance
with the Change Directive as set forth in Sections 6.3.7 and 6.3.8, as applicable. 
 § 6.3.10 When the Owner and Design-Builder agree with a determination concerning the adjustments in the Contract Sum or, if prior to execution of the Design-Build
Amendment, the adjustment in the Design-Builder’s compensation and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such agreement shall be effective immediately and the Owner and Design-Builder shall execute a Change Order.
Change Orders may be issued for all or any part of a Change Directive. 
 ARTICLE 7    OWNER’S RESPONSIBILITIES 

§ 7.1 General 

§ 7.1.1 The Owner
shall designate in writing a representative who shall have authority to represent the Owner with respect to all Project matters and to obtain the Owner’s approval or authorization. In no event shall the Owner have control over, charge of or any
responsibility for the design of the Project or for construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for safety precautions or programs in connection with the Work, notwithstanding any other provisions of the Design-Build
Documents. 
 § 7.1.2 The Owner shall render

the Project involving structural or mechanical systems; chemical, air and water pollution; hazardous materials; or environmental and subsurface conditions and information regarding the presence
of pollutants at the Project site. Where reasonably necessary for the Work, upon receipt of a written request from the Design-Builder, the Owner shall also provide surveys describing physical characteristics, legal limitations and utility locations
for the site of the Project, and a legal description of the site under the Owner’s control. 
 § 7.2.3 The Owner shall promptly obtain easements, zoning variances, and legal authorizations or entitlements regarding site utilization where essential to the
execution of the Project. 
 § 7.2.4 The Owner shall cooperate with the Design-Builder in securing building and other permits, licenses and inspections. 

§ 7.2.5 The
services, information, surveys and reports required to be provided by the Owner under this Agreement, shall be furnished at the Owner’s expense, and except as otherwise specifically therein or provided in this Agreement or elsewhere in the
Design-Build Documents or to the extent the Owner advises the Design-Builder to the contrary in writing, the Design-Builder shall be entitled to rely upon the accuracy and completeness thereof. In no event shall the Design-Builder be relieved of its
responsibility to exercise proper precautions relating to the safe performance of the Work. 
 § 7.2.6 If the Owner observes or otherwise becomes aware of a fault or defect in the Work or non-conformity with the
Design-Build Documents, the Owner shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Design-Builder. 

§ 7.2.7 Prior to
the execution of the Design-Build Amendment, the Design-Builder may request in writing that the Owner provide reasonable evidence that the Owner has made financial arrangements to fulfill the Owner’s obligations under the Design-Build Documents
and the Design-Builder’s Proposal. Thereafter, the Design-Builder may only request such evidence if (1) the Owner fails to make payments to the Design-Builder as the Design-Build Documents require; (2) a change in the Work materially
changes the Contract Sum; or (3) the Design-Builder identifies in writing a reasonable concern regarding the Owner’s ability to make payment when due. 

§ 7.2.8 Except as
otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents or when direct communications have been specially authorized, the Owner shall communicate with persons or entities employed or retained by the Design-Builder through or with notice to the
Design-Builder. 
 § 7.2.9 Unless required by the Design-Build Documents to be provided by the Design-Builder, the Owner shall, upon request from the Design-Builder, furnish the services of geotechnical engineers or other consultants for
investigation of subsurface, air and water conditions when such services are reasonably necessary to properly carry out the design services furnished by the Design-Builder. In such event, the Design-Builder shall specify the services required. Such
services may include, but are not limited to, test borings, test pits, determinations of soil bearing values, percolation tests, evaluations of hazardous materials, ground corrosion and resistivity tests, and necessary operations for anticipating
subsoil conditions. The services of geotechnical engineer(s) or other consultants shall include preparation and submission of all appropriate reports and professional recommendations. 

§ 7.2.10 The Owner
shall purchase and maintain insurance as set forth in Exhibit B. 
 § 7.3 Submittals 

§ 7.3.1 The Owner
shall review and approve or take other appropriate action on Submittals. Review of Submittals is not conducted for the purpose of determining the accuracy and completeness of other details, such as dimensions and quantities; or for substantiating
instructions for installation or performance of equipment or systems; or for determining that the Submittals are in conformance with the Design-Build Documents, all of which remain the responsibility of the Design-Builder as required by the
Design-Build Documents. The Owner’s action will be taken in accordance with the submittal schedule approved by the Owner or, in the absence of an approved submittal schedule, with reasonable promptness while allowing sufficient time in the
Owner’s judgment to permit adequate review. The Owner’s review of Submittals shall not relieve the Design-Builder of the obligations under Sections 3.1.11, 3.1.12, and 5.2.3. The Owner’s review shall not constitute approval of safety
precautions or of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. The Owner’s approval of a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component.

 § 7.3.2 Upon review of the Submittals required by the Design-Build Documents, the Owner shall notify the Design-Builder of any non-conformance with the Design-Build Documents the
Owner discovers. 
 § 7.4 Visits to the site by the Owner shall not be construed to create an obligation on the part of the Owner to make on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the
Work. The Owner shall neither have control over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work, because these are
solely the Design-Builder’s rights and responsibilities under the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 7.5 The Owner
shall not be responsible for the Design-Builder’s failure to perform the Work in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents. The Owner shall not have control over or charge of, and will not be responsible for acts or
omissions of the Design-Builder, Architect, Consultants, Contractors, or their agents or employees, or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work for the Design-Builder. 

§ 7.6 The Owner has
the authority to reject Work that does not conform to the Design-Build Documents. The Owner shall have authority to require inspection or testing of the Work in accordance with Section 15.5.2, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed
or completed. However, neither this authority of the Owner nor a decision made in good faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority shall give rise to a duty or responsibility of the Owner to the Design-Builder, the Architect,
Consultants, Contractors, material and equipment suppliers, their agents or employees, or other persons or entities performing portions of the Work. 

§ 7.7 The Owner
shall determine the actual date or dates of Substantial Completion in accordance with Section 9.8 and the date of final completion in accordance with Section 9.10. 

§ 7.8 Owner’s Right to Stop Work 

If the Design-Builder fails to correct Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents as required by Section 11.2 or
fails to carry out Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents and the most recent schedule approved by the Owner, the Owner may issue a written order to the Design-Builder to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such
order has been eliminated; however, the right of the Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to a duty on the part of the Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of the Design-Builder or any other person or entity, except to the extent
required by Section 5.13.1.3. 
 § 7.9 Owner’s Right to Carry Out the Work 

If the Design-Builder defaults or fails to carry out the Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents or in accordance with the most recent schedule
approved by the Owner and fails within a ten-day period after receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of such default or failure with diligence and promptness to
completion, the Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies the Owner may have, correct such deficiencies. In such case, an appropriate Change Order or Change Directive shall be issued deducting from payments then or thereafter due the
Design-Builder the reasonable cost of correcting such deficiencies. If payments then or thereafter due the Design-Builder are not sufficient to cover such amounts, the Design-Builder shall pay the difference to the Owner upon request. 

§7.10 Extent of Owner’s Rights 
 The rights set forth in
this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Design-Build Documents are cumulative and not in limitation of any rights of the Owner (1) granted in the Design-Build Documents or (2) at law or in equity. 

ARTICLE 8    TIME 

§ 8.1 Progress and Completion 
 § 8.1.1 Time limits stated in the Design-Build Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the
Design-Build Amendment the Design-Builder confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work. 
 § 8.1.2 The Design-Builder shall not, except by agreement of the Owner in writing, commence the Work prior to the
effective date of insurance, other than property insurance, required by this Contract. The Contract Time shall not be adjusted as a result of the Design-Builder’s failure to obtain insurance required under this Contract.

 § 8.1.3 The Design-Builder shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the Contract Time. 

§8.1.4 When any
period of time is referred to in the Design-Build Documents by days, it shall be computed to exclude the first and include the last day of such period. If the last day of any such period falls on a Saturday, Sunday or a legal holiday, such day will
be omitted from the computation and such period shall be deemed to end on the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. 

8.1.5 Except as excluded by Section 8.1.4, the Contract Time and
all time periods referred to in the Design-Build Documents include Saturdays, Sundays and legal holidays. 

§ 8.2 Delays and Extensions of Time 

§ 8.2.1 If the
critical path of the Work is delayed at any time in the commencement or progress of the Work by an act or omission of the Owner or of a consultant or separate contractor employed by the Owner; or by changes ordered in the Work by the Owner by Change
Directive; or by general labor disputes not related to the Project, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Design-Builder’s control; or by delay authorized by the Owner pending mediation and binding
dispute resolution or by other causes that the Owner determines may justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as the Owner may determine. Except delays caused by unusual adverse weather, no
adjustment to the Contract Time shall be permitted to the extent a delay (1) is caused or could have been reasonably anticipated and prevented by the Design-Builder, (2) could be limited or avoided by the Design-Builder’s timely
notice to the Owner of the delay or reasonable likelihood that a delay will occur, or (3) is of a duration of one day or less. The Contract Time shall be extended only by a Change Order demonstrating the justification, evidence of actual days
delayed or impacted and the effect on the construction schedule. Determination of the merits of a request for extension of time due to unusual adverse weather will be made in accordance with Section 14.1.6.2 and this Article 8. 

§ 8.2.2 Claims
relating to time shall be made in accordance with applicable provisions of Article 14. 
 § 8.2.3 To the extent permitted by law, this Section 8.2 does not preclude recovery of damages for delay by either party under other provisions of the Design-Build
Documents. 
 §8.2.4 If the Design-Builder submits a schedule or progress report indicating, or otherwise expresses in writing an intention to achieve, completion of the Work prior to Substantial Completion or other similar date
required by the Design-Build Documents or expiration of Contract Time, an activity shall be added to the construction schedule equal in duration to the period of time between the intended completion day and the date of Substantial Completion or
other similar date required by the Design-Build Documents, as applicable. No liability of the Owner to the Design-Builder for any failure of the Design-Builder to so complete the Work shall be created or implied regardless of the cause of or reason
for the Design-Builder’s failure to do so. 

§8.2.5 The Design-Builder shall not make any Claim for an
increase in the Contract Sum or Contract Time. unless the Design-Builder is delayed in the progress of the Work by unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of the Design-Builder, the Architect, or any Consultant,
Contractor, material and equipment supplier or anyone for whom any of the foregoing may be liable. Such unforeseeable causes may include: (1) the act or neglect of the Owner, or an employee of Owner, or of a separate contractor employed by the
Owner; (2) concealed physical conditions in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents; (3) adverse weather conditions in accordance with the provisions of the Contract Documents; (4) changes ordered in the Work by Owner

connection with a labor dispute on the Project site or at locations under the control of the Design-Builder, any work stoppage or lockout in industries essential to the conduct of the Work in no way caused or resulting from default or collusion on
the part of the Design-Builder; and (8) acts of war or terrorism having a demonstrable, direct, adverse effect on the ability of the Design-Builder to perform its obligation under the Contract.

 ARTICLE 9    PAYMENT APPLICATIONS AND PROJECT COMPLETION 

§ 9.1 Contract Sum 
 The Contract Sum is stated
in the Design-Build Amendment. 
 § 9.2 Schedule of Values 

Where the Contract Sum is based on a stipulated sum or Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Design-Builder, prior to the first Application for Payment after execution
of the Design-Build Amendment shall submit to the Owner for approval a schedule of values allocating the entire Contract Sum to the various portions of the Work and prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the
Owner may require. The schedule of values which is approved by the Owner shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Design-Builder’s Applications for Payment. The schedule of values shall be updated to reflect any changes in the Contract Sum.

 § 9.3 Applications for Payment 
 § 9.3.1 At least ten days before the date established for each progress payment, the Design-Builder shall submit to
the Owner an itemized Application for Payment for completed portions of the Work. The application shall be notarized, if required, and supported by data substantiating the Design-Builder’s right to payment as the Owner may require, such as
copies of requisitions from the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, and material suppliers, and shall reflect retainage if provided for in the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 9.3.1.1 As
provided in Section 6.3.9, Applications for Payment may include requests for payment on account of changes in the Work that have been properly authorized by Change Directives, or by interim determinations of the Owner, but not yet included in
Change Orders. 
 § 9.3.1.2 Applications for Payment shall not include requests for payment for portions of the Work for which the Design-Builder does not intend to pay the Architect, Consultant, Contractor, material supplier, or other
persons or entities providing services or work for the Design-Builder, unless such Work has been performed by others whom the Design-Builder intends to pay. Each Application for Payment shall be accompanied by the following, all in form and
substance satisfactory to the Owner: (1) descriptions of (a) the amount of each applicable subcontract or purchase order or agreement, (b) the amount requested for the Architect and each Consultant, Contractor, and material and
equipment supplier in the Application for Payment, and (c) the amount to be paid to the Design-Builder under the Application for Payment; (2) conditional lien waivers from the Design-Builder, the Architect and all Contractors, Consultants,
and material and equipment suppliers that (i) have a direct contract with the Design-Builder; and (ii) are for more than $25,000 relating to all Work and other items for which payment is requested in the Application for Payment;
(3) unconditional lien waivers from the Design-Builder, the Architect and all Contractors, Consultants, and material and equipment suppliers that (i) have a direct contract with the Design-Builder; and (ii) are for more than
$25,000establishing payment of all amounts requested for such persons or entities in the previous Application for Payment; and (4) all information, documents and materials required to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents or
reasonably requested by the Owner. 
 § 9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents, payments shall be made for services provided as well as materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the Project site for subsequent
incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the Project site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off
the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Design-Builder with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner’s title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner’s interest, and shall include the
costs of applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and equipment stored off the Project site. If any stored materials or equipment, whether on the Project site or off the Project site are damaged or destroyed
they shall be replaced by the Design-Builder without cost to the Owner. 
 § 9.3.3 The Design-Builder warrants that title to all Work, other than Instruments of Service, covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later
than the time of payment. The Design-Builder further warrants that, upon submittal of an Application for Payment, all Work for which Certificates for Payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall be free and clear of
liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances in favor of the Design-Builder, Architect, Consultants, Contractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities entitled to make a claim by reason of having provided labor, materials and
equipment relating to the Work.

 § 9.4 Certificates for Payment 

The Owner shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Design-Builder’s Application for Payment, issue to the Design-Builder a Certificate for
Payment indicating the amount the Owner determines is properly due, and notify the Design-Builder in writing of the Owner’s reasons for withholding certification in whole or in part as provided in Section 9.5.1. 

§ 9.5 Decisions to Withhold Certification 

§ 9.5.1 The Owner
may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in part to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Owner due to the Owner’s determination that the Work has not progressed to the point indicated in the Design-Builder’s Application
for Payment, or the quality of the Work is not in accordance with the Design-Build Documents or the requirements of Section 9.3.1.2 have not been fulfilled. If the Owner is unable to certify payment in the amount of the Application, the Owner
will notify the Design-Builder as provided in Section 9.4. If the Design-Builder and Owner cannot agree on a revised amount, the Owner will promptly issue a Certificate for Payment for the amount that the Owner deems to be due and owing. The
Owner may also withhold a Certificate for Payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, may nullify the whole or a part of a Certificate for Payment previously issued to such extent as may be necessary to protect the Owner from loss for
which the Design-Builder is responsible because of 
 .1    defective Work, including design and construction, not remedied; 

.2    third party
claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims unless security acceptable to the Owner is provided by the Design-Builder; 

.3    failure of
the Design-Builder to make payments properly to the Architect, Consultants, Contractors or others, for services, labor, materials or equipment; 

.4    reasonable
evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum; 
 .5    damage to the Owner or a separate contractor; 

.6    reasonable
evidence that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time or by any applicable milestone, and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay; 

.7    failure to
carry out the Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents ; or 

.8    other
material breach of the Design-Builder to perform in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 9.5.2 When the
above reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously withheld. 

§ 9.5.3 If the
Owner withholds certification for payment under Section 9.5.1.3, and the Owner receives a notice of claim or lien form the Architect or any Consultant, Contractor, subcontractor, material and equipment supplier or other person or entity
providing services or Work for the Project, the Owner shall notify the Design-Builder in writing. If the Design-Builder fails, within seven (7) days of receipt of such notice, to pay or protect the Owner from the claim or lien by bond, cash
deposit or other indemnity or security satisfactory to the Owner, the Owner may, at its sole option, issue joint checks to the Design-Builder and to the Architect or any Consultants, Contractor, subcontractor, material or equipment suppliers, or
other persons or entities providing services or work for the Project to whom the Design-Builder or any other person or entity failed to make payment for Work properly performed or material or equipment suitably delivered. 

§ 9.6 Progress Payments 
 § 9.6.1 After the Owner has issued a Certificate for Payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within
the time provided in the Design-Build Documents. 
 §
9.6.2 The Design-Builder shall pay each Architect, Consultant, Contractor, material and equipment supplier, and other person or entity providing services or work for the Design-Builder no later
than the time period required by applicable law, but in no event more than seven days after receipt of payment from the Owner the amount to which the Architect, Consultant, Contractor, material and equipment supplier, and other person or entity
providing services or work for the Design-Builder is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Design-Builder on account of the portion of the Work performed by the Architect, Consultant, Contractor, material and
equipment supplier, or other person or entity. The Design-Builder shall, by appropriate agreement with each

Architect, Consultant, Contractor, and other person or entity providing services or work for the Design-Builder, require each Architect, Consultant, Contractor, material and equipment supplier,
and other person or entity providing services or work for the Design-Builder to make payments to subconsultants and subcontractors in a similar manner. 
 § 9.6.3 The Owner will, on request and if practicable, furnish to the Architect, a Consultant, Contractor, material
and equipment supplier, or other person or entity providing services or work for the Project, information regarding percentages of completion or amounts applied for by the Design-Builder and action taken thereon by the Owner on account of portions
of the Work done by such Architect, Consultant, Contractor material and equipment supplier, or other person or entity providing services or work for the Design-Builder. 

§ 9.6.4 The Owner
has the right to request written evidence from the Design-Builder that the Design-Builder has properly paid the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, material and equipment suppliers, or other person or entity providing services or work for the
Design-Builder, amounts paid by the Owner to the Design-Builder for the Work. If the Design-Builder fails to furnish such evidence within seven days, the Owner shall have the right to contact the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, material and
equipment suppliers, and other applicable persons and entities, to ascertain whether they have been properly paid. The Owner shall have no obligation to pay or to see to the payment of money to the Architect, a Consultant, a Contractor, a material
and equipment supplier, or any other person or entity except as may otherwise be required by statute. 

§ 9.6.5
[Intentionally blank] 
 § 9.6.6 A Certificate for Payment, a progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.

 § 9.6.7
Unless the Design-Builder provides the Owner with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Contract Sum, payments received by the Design-Builder for Work properly performed by the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, material and equipment
suppliers, and other persons or entities providing Work for the Design-Builder, shall be held by the Design-Builder for the Architect and those Consultants, Contractors, or other person or entity providing services or work for the Design-Builder,
for which payment was made by the Owner. Nothing contained herein shall require money to be placed in a separate account and not commingled with money of the Design-Builder, shall create any fiduciary liability or tort liability on the part of the
Design-Builder for breach of trust or shall entitle any person or entity to an award of punitive damages against the Design-Builder for breach of the requirements of this provision. 

§ 9.7 Failure of Payment 
 § 9.7.1 Except as provided in Sections 9.5 and 9.6, if the Owner
does not issue a Certificate for Payment, through no fault of the Design-Builder, within the time required by the Design-Build Documents, then the Design-Builder may, upon ten additional days’ written notice to the Owner, stop the Work until
payment of the undisputed amount owing has been received. Any adjustment to Contract Time or the Contract Sum shall be made by Change Order to compensate the Design Builder for the reasonable costs of shut down, delay, start up, plus interest as
permitted in Section A.1.5.1.3 of Exhibit A. 
 §9.7.2
If the Owner is entitled to reimbursement or payment from the Design-Builder under or pursuant to the Design-Build Documents, such undisputed reimbursement or payment shall be made promptly upon
request by the Owner. Notwithstanding anything in the Design-Build Documents to the contrary, if the Design-Builder fails to promptly make any reimbursement or payment due to the Owner in accordance with the Design-Build Documents, or if the Owner
incurs any costs and expenses to cure any default of the Design-Builder or to correct defective Work, the Owner shall have the right to offset such amount against the Contract Sum and may, either (1) deduct an amount equal to that to which the
Owner is entitled from any payment then or thereafter due to the Design-Builder from the Owner, or (2) issue a written notice to the Design-Builder reducing the Contract Sum by an amount equal to that to which the Owner is entitled.

 § 9.8 Substantial Completion and Liquidated Damages 

§ 9.8.1 Substantial
Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Design-Build Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use. The date of
Substantial Completion is the date certified by the Owner in accordance with this Section 9.8. 

§ 9.8.2 When the
Design-Builder considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Design-Builder shall prepare and submit to the Owner a comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected
prior to final payment. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Design-Builder to complete all Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 9.8.3 Upon
receipt of the Design-Builder’s list, the Owner shall make an inspection to determine whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the Owner’s inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the
Design-Builder’s list, which is not complete in accordance with the Design-Build Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work or designated portion thereof for its intended use, the Design-Builder shall, before issuance of the
Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon notification by the Owner. In such case, the Design-Builder shall then submit a request for another inspection by the Owner to determine Substantial Completion. 

§ 9.8.4 Prior to
issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion under Section 9.8.5, the Owner and Design-Builder shall discuss and then determine their respective obligations to obtain and maintain property insurance following issuance of the
Certificate of Substantial Completion. 
 § 9.8.5 When the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Design-Builder will prepare for the Owner’s signature a Certificate of Substantial Completion, including a list of items to be
completed or corrected, that shall, upon the Owner’s signature, establish the actual date of Substantial Completion; establish responsibilities of the Owner and Design-Builder for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and
insurance; and fix the time within which the Design-Builder shall finish all items on the list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Design-Build Documents shall commence on the actual date of Substantial Completion of the Work or
designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of Substantial Completion. 

§ 9.8.6 The
Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be submitted by the Design-Builder to the Owner for written acceptance of responsibilities assigned to the Owner in the Certificate. Upon the Owner’s acceptance, and consent of surety, if any, the
Owner shall make payment of retainage applying to the Work or designated portion thereof. At the Owner’s option, payment shall be adjusted for Work that is incomplete or not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents.

 § 9.8.7
The Owner and the Design-Builder further agree that if the Design-Builder fails to achieve Substantial Completion on or before the date set forth in the Design-Build Documents and if Design-Builder is not entitled to an adjustment of time as
provided for in the Design-Build Documents, then the Owner will suffer damages and that such damages will be difficult to ascertain. The Owner and the Design-Builder further agree that for each day the Design-Builder fails to achieve Substantial
Completion after the date set forth in the Design-Build Documents, the Design-Builder shall pay or credit to the Owner, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty Five Thousand Dollars ($5000) commencing on the date for Substantial Completion set
forth in the Design-Build Documents and ending on the date Substantial Completion in achieved. The Design-Builder agrees that these fixed liquidated damages are not established as a penalty but are calculated and agreed upon in advance due to the
uncertainty and difficulty of making a determination as to the actual damages which the Owner would incur if Design-Builder would fail to achieve Substantial Completion by the date set forth in the Design-Build Documents. The liquidated damages
stated herein shall be the exclusive measure of those damages sustained by the Owner due to a breach by Design-Builder of its agreement to achieve Substantial Completion by the date set forth in the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 9.9 Partial Occupancy or Use 
 § 9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work which the Owner chooses
to occupy or use at any stage when such portion is designated by separate written agreement with the Design-Builder, provided such occupancy or use is consented to, by endorsement or otherwise, by the insurer providing property insurance and
authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Project. Such partial

occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Design-Builder have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them
for payments, retainage, if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction and completion of the Work and commencement of warranties required by the
Design-Build Documents. When the Design-Builder considers a portion which the Owner has chosen to occupy or use in accordance with this Section 9.9.1 substantially complete, the Design-Builder shall prepare and submit a list to the Owner as
provided under Section 9.8.2. Consent of the Design-Builder to partial occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Design-Builder.

 § 9.9.2
Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner and Design-Builder shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record
the condition of the area or portion of the Work. 
 §
9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the
Design-Build Documents. 
 § 9.10 Final Completion and Final Payment 

§ 9.10.1 Upon
receipt of the Design-Builder’s written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final Application for Payment, the Owner will promptly make such inspection. When the Owner finds the Work
acceptable under the Design-Build Documents and the Contract fully performed, the Owner will, subject to Section 9.10.2, promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment. 

§ 9.10.2 Neither
final payment nor any remaining retained percentage shall become due until the Design-Builder submits to the Owner (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work, for which the
Owner or the Owner’s property might be responsible or encumbered, (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Design-Build Documents to remain in force
after final payment is currently in effect, (3) a written statement that the Design-Builder knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Design-Build Documents, (4) consent of
surety, if any, to final payment, (5) as-constructed record copy of the Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&IDs), Electrical Schematics, and Under-slab piping/utilities drawings,
(6) manufacturer’s warranties, product data, and maintenance and operations manuals, (7) releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances, arising out of the Contract, from the Design-Builder, the Architect,
and all Consultants, Contractors, subcontractors, material and equipment suppliers, and other persons and entities providing services or work for the Project that (i) have a direct contract with the Design-Builder; and (ii) are for more
than $25,000, in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner, and (8) if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts. If an Architect, a Consultant, or a Contractor, subcontractor,
material and equipment supplier, or other person or entity providing services or work for the Project, refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Design-Builder may furnish a bond satisfactory to the Owner to indemnify the
Owner against actual or potential liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances. If such liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the Design-Builder shall refund to the Owner all money that
the Owner may be compelled to pay in discharging such liens, claims, security interests, or encumbrances, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. 

§ 9.10.3 If, after
Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed for more than thirty (30) days through no fault of the Design Builder or by issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, the Owner shall, upon
application by the Design Builder, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or correct is less than the
retainage stipulated in the Design Build Documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of surety to payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Design Builder to
the Owner prior to issuance of payment. Such payment shall be made under terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims. 

§ 9.10.4 The making
of final payment shall constitute a waiver of Claims by the Owner except those arising from

 ARTICLE 10    PROTECTION OF
PERSONS AND PROPERTY 
 § 10.1 Safety Precautions and Programs

the Contract. 
 § 10.2 Safety of Persons and Property 

§ 10.2.1 The
Design-Builder shall be responsible for precautions for the safety of, and reasonable protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to

 § 10.2.7 The Design-Builder shall not permit any part of the construction or site to be loaded so as to cause damage or create an unsafe condition. 

§ 10.2.8 Injury or Damage to Person or Property. If the Owner or Design-Builder suffers injury or damage to person or property because of an act or omission of the other, or of others for whose acts such party is legally responsible, written notice of the
injury or damage, whether or not insured, shall be given to the other party within a reasonable time not exceeding 21 days after discovery. The notice shall provide sufficient detail to enable the other party to investigate the matter. 

§ 10.3 Hazardous Materials 
 § 10.3.1 The Design-Builder is responsible for compliance with any requirements included in the Design-Build
Documents regarding hazardous materials and substances. If the Design-Builder encounters a hazardous material or substance not addressed in the Design-Build Documents and if reasonable precautions will be inadequate to prevent foreseeable bodily
injury or death to persons resulting from a hazardous material or substance, including but not limited to asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), encountered on the Project site by the Design-Builder, the Design-Builder shall, upon recognizing
the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and report the condition to the Owner in writing. Furthermore, if the Design-Builder unexpectantly encounters at the Project site any hazardous material or substance, including petroleum,
petroleum products, natural gas liquids, liquefied natural gas, synthetic gas, and any other material or substance deemed to be hazardous, dangerous, toxic or a pollutant under any governmental or quasi-governmental laws, rules or regulations, the
Design-Builder shall promptly report the existence thereof to the Owner in writing. The Design-Builder shall not bring any such materials or substances to the Project site unless specifically required by the Design-Build Documents or authorized by
the Owner in writing. 
 § 10.3.2 Upon receipt of the Design-Builder’s written notice, the Owner shall obtain the services of a licensed laboratory to verify the presence or absence of the hazardous material or substance reported by the
Design-Builder and, in the event such hazardous material or substance is found to be present, to cause it to be rendered harmless. When the hazardous material or substance has been rendered harmless, Work in the affected area shall resume upon
written notice from the Owner to the Design-Builder. The Contract Time and the Contract Sum and the Contract Sum shall be adjusted by Change Order. The term “rendered harmless” shall be interpreted to mean that levels of asbestos,
polychlorinated biphenyls or other hazardous materials or substances are less than any applicable exposure standards set forth in OSHA regulations. 

§ 10.3.3. To
the fullest extent permitted by law, the Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Design Builder, the Architect, Consultants and Contractors and employees of any of them, from and against claims, damages, losses and expenses, including but not
limited to attorneys’ fees, arising out of or resulting from performance of the Work in the affected area, if in fact the material or substance presents the risk of bodily injury or death as described in Section 10.3.1 and has not been
rendered harmless, provided that such claim, damage, loss or expense is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease or death or to injury to or destruction of tangible property (other than the Work itself). Notwithstanding the foregoing,
Owner shall have no indemnification or hold harmless responsibility to Design Builder for claims, damage, loss or expense attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease or death or to injury to or destruction of tangible property relating to or
arising from asbestos existing at the Project site. 
 §
10.3.4 The Owner shall not be responsible under this Section 10.3 for hazardous materials or substances the Design-Builder brings to the Project site unless such materials or substances are
required by the Owner’s Criteria. The Owner shall be responsible for hazardous materials or substances required by the Owner’s Criteria, except to the extent of the Design-Builder’s fault or negligence in the use and handling of such
hazardous materials or substances. Upon Final Completion, the Design-Builder shall remove all hazardous materials and substances not incorporated in to the Project from the site of the Project, properly dispose of such hazardous materials and
substances and clean up, remove and render harmless any contamination of the Project by such hazardous materials and substances. 
 § 10.3.5 The Design-Builder shall indemnify the Owner for the cost and expense the Owner incurs (1) for
remediation of a hazardous material or substance the Design-Builder brings to the Project site and uses, handles,

transmits, or disposes negligently, or (2) where the Design-Builder fails to perform its obligations under Section 10.3.1. 

§ 10.3.6 If,
without negligence on the part of the Design Builder, the Design Builder is held liable by a government agency for the cost of remediation of a hazardous material or substance solely by reason of performing Work required by the Design Build
Documents, the Owner shall indemnify the Design Builder for all costs and expenses thereby incurred. 
 § 10.4 Emergencies 

In an emergency affecting safety of persons or property, the Design-Builder shall act, at the Design-Builder’s discretion, to prevent threatened damage,
injury or loss. 
 ARTICLE 11    UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION OF WORK 

§ 11.1 Uncovering of Work 
 The Owner may
request to examine a portion of the Work that the Design-Builder has covered to determine if the Work has been performed in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. If such Work is in accordance with the Design-Build Documents, the Owner and
Design-Builder shall execute a Change Order to adjust the Contract Time and Contract Sum, as appropriate. If such Work is not in accordance with the Design-Build Documents, the costs of uncovering and correcting the Work shall be at the
Design-Builder’s expense and the Design-Builder shall not be entitled to a change in the Contract Time unless the condition was caused by the Owner or a separate contractor in which event the Owner shall be responsible for payment of such costs
and the Contract Time will be adjusted as appropriate. 
 § 11.2 Correction of Work 

§ 11.2.1 Before or After Substantial Completion. The Design-Builder shall promptly correct Work rejected by the Owner or failing to conform to the requirements of the Design-Build Documents, whether discovered before or after Substantial Completion and whether
or not fabricated, installed or completed. Costs of correcting such rejected or defective Work, including additional testing and inspections, the cost of uncovering and replacement, and compensation for any design consultant employed by the Owner
whose expenses and compensation were made necessary thereby, shall be at the Design-Builder’s expense. 

§ 11.2.2 After Substantial Completion 
 § 11.2.2.1 In addition to the Design-Builder’s obligations under Section 3.1.12, and other remedies the
Owner may have under the Design-Build Documents, at law, or in equity, if, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof or after the date for commencement of warranties established under
Section 9.9.1, or by terms of an applicable special warranty required by the Design-Build Documents, any of the Work is found not to be in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents, the Design-Builder shall correct it
promptly after receipt of written notice from the Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Design-Builder a written acceptance of such condition. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after discovery of the condition. During the one-year period for correction of the Work, if the Owner fails to notify the Design-Builder and give the Design-Builder an opportunity to make the correction, the Owner waives the rights to require correction by the
Design-Builder. If the Design-Builder fails to correct nonconforming Work within a reasonable time during that period after receipt of notice from the Owner, the Owner may correct it in accordance with Section 7.9. 

§ 11.2.2.2 The one-year period for correction of Work shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and the actual completion
of that portion of the Work. 
 § 11.2.2.3 The one-year period for correction of Work shall not be extended by corrective Work performed by the Design-Builder pursuant to this Section 11.2. 

§ 11.2.3 The
Design-Builder shall remove from the Project site portions of the Work that are not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents and are neither corrected by the Design-Builder nor accepted by the Owner.

 § 11.2.4 The Design-Builder shall bear the cost of correcting destroyed or damaged construction of the Owner or separate contractors, whether completed or partially completed, other property of the Owner and utilities and
property on or adjacent to the Project site owned by third parties caused by the Design-Builder’s correction or removal of Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 11.2.5 Nothing
contained in this Section 11.2 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations the Design-Builder has under the Design-Build Documents. Establishment of the
one-year period for correction of Work as described in Section 11.2.2 relates only to the specific obligation of the Design-Builder to correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which
the obligation to comply with the Design-Build Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish the Design-Builder’s liability with respect to the Design-Builder’s obligations
other than specifically to correct the Work. 
 § 11.3 Acceptance of Nonconforming Work 

If the Owner prefers to accept Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents, the Owner may do so instead of requiring its
removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum will be reduced as appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made. 

ARTICLE 12    COPYRIGHTS AND LICENSES 
 § 12.1 Drawings, specifications, and other documents furnished by the Design-Builder, including those in electronic
form, are Instruments of Service. Except as provided for in this Agreement, the Design-Builder, and the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, and any other person or entity providing services or work for any of them, shall be deemed the authors and
owners of their respective Instruments of Service, including the Drawings and Specifications, and shall retain all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyrights. Submission or distribution of Instruments of Service to meet
official regulatory requirements, or for similar purposes in connection with the Project, is not to be construed as publication in derogation of the reserved rights of the Design-Builder and the Architect, Consultants, and Contractors, and any other
person or entity providing services or work for any of them. 

§ 12.2 The
Design-Builder and the Owner warrant that in transmitting Instruments of Service, or any other information, the transmitting party is the copyright owner of such information or has permission from the copyright owner to transmit such information for
its use on the Project. 
 § 12.3 Upon execution of the Agreement, the Design-Builder grants to the Owner a limited, irrevocable and non-exclusive license to use the Instruments of Service as they are
delivered to the Owner from time to time solely and exclusively for purposes of constructing, using, maintaining, altering and adding to the Project, to the extent that the Owner substantially performs its obligations, including payment of
undisputed amounts when due, under the Design-Build Documents. The license granted under this section permits the Owner to authorize its consultants and separate contractors to reproduce applicable portions of the Instruments of Service solely and
exclusively for use in performing services or construction for the Project. If the Design Builder rightfully terminates this Agreement for cause as provided in Sections 13.1.4 or 13.2.1, the license granted in this 12.3 shall terminate. 

§ 12.3.1 The
Design-Builder shall obtain non-exclusive licenses from the Architect, Consultants, and Contractors, that will allow the Design-Builder to satisfy its obligations to the Owner under this Article 12. The
Design-Builder’s licenses from the Architect and its Consultants and Contractors shall also allow the Owner, in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason or in the event the Design-Builder’s Architect, Consultants, or
Contractors terminate their agreements with the Design-Builder for cause, to have a limited, irrevocable and non-exclusive license solely and exclusively for purposes of constructing, using, maintaining,
altering and adding to the Project, provided that the Owner agrees to pay to the Architect, Consultant or Contractor all amounts due. 
 § 12.3.2 Upon Owner’s payment to Design-Builder for Instruments of Service prepared and provided by the
Design-Builder, the Architect, the Consultants, the Contractor, and any other agents of the Design-Builder performing Work on the Project, the Owner shall become the full and sole owner of those Instruments of Service, including the Drawings,
Specifications and other deliverables provided by Design-Builder pursuant to this Agreement, and including all common law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyrights, associated with such Instruments of Service. Design-Builder shall
include provisions in Design-Builder’s contracts with the Architect,

Service as contemplated by this Section. In the event the Owner alters the Instruments of Service without the author’s written authorization , the Owner releases and indemnifies the Design Builder, Architect, Consultants, Contractors and any
other person or entity providing services or work for any of them from any and all claims and causes of action arising from or relating to such alterations. 

ARTICLE 13    TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION 

§ 13.1 Termination or Suspension Prior to Execution of the Design-Build Amendment 

§ 13.1.1 If the
Owner fails to make payments of undisputed amounts to the Design-Builder for Work prior to execution of the Design-Build Amendment in accordance with this Agreement, such failure shall be considered substantial nonperformance and cause for
termination or, at the Design-Builder’s option, cause for suspension of performance of services under this Agreement. If the Design-Builder elects to suspend the Work, the Design-Builder shall give seven days’ written notice to the Owner
before suspending the Work. Any adjustment of the Design-Builder’s compensation, the Contract Time, or the Contract Documents shall be made by Change Order. In the event of a suspension of the Work, the Design Builder shall have no liability to
the Owner for delay or damage caused by a suspension of the Work. Before resuming the Work, the Design Builder shall be paid all sums due prior to the suspension and any reasonable expenses which Design-Builder substantiates were incurred by
Design-Builder in the interruption and resumption of the Design Builder’s Work. The Design Builder’s compensation for and time to complete the remaining Work shall be equitably adjusted. 

§ 13.1.2 If the
Owner suspends the Project, the Design-Builder shall be compensated for the Work performed prior to notice of such suspension. Any adjustment of the Design-Builder’s compensation, the Contract Time, or the Contract Documents shall be made by
Change Order. When the Project is resumed the Design Builder shall be compensated for reasonable expenses which the Design-Builder substantiates were incurred by Design-Builder in the interruption and resumption of the Design Builder’s Work.
The Design Builder’s compensation for and time to complete the remaining Work shall be equitably adjusted. 

§ 13.1.3 If the
Owner suspends the Project for more than 90 cumulative days for reasons other than the fault of the Design Builder, the Design Builder may terminate this Agreement by giving not less than seven days’ written notice. 

§ 13.1.4 Either the
Owner or the Design-Builder may terminate this Agreement upon not less than seven days’ written notice should the other party fail substantially to perform in accordance with the terms of this Agreement through no fault of the party initiating
the termination. 
 § 13.1.5 The Owner may terminate this Agreement upon not less than seven days’ written notice to the Design-Builder for the Owner’s convenience and without cause. 

§ 13.1.6 In the
event of termination not the fault of the Design-Builder, the Design-Builder shall be compensated for Work properly performed prior to termination, together with Reimbursable Expenses then due and any other expenses directly incurred by the
Design-Builder solely as the result of the termination for which the Design-Builder is not otherwise compensated. In no event shall the Design-Builder’s compensation under this Section 13.1.6 be greater than the compensation set forth in
Section 2.1. 

§ 13.2 Termination or Suspension Following Execution of the Design-Build Amendment 

§ 13.2.1 Termination by the Design-Builder 

§ 13.2.1.1 The
Design-Builder may terminate the Contract if the Work is stopped for a period of 60 consecutive days through no act or fault of the Design-Builder, the Architect, a Consultant, or a Contractor, material and equipment supplier, or their agents or
employees, or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the Design-Builder, for any of the following reasons: 

.1    Issuance of
an order of a court or other public authority having jurisdiction that requires all Work to be stopped; 
 .2    An act of government, such as a declaration of national emergency that requires all Work to be stopped; or 

.3    Because the
Owner has not issued a Certificate for Payment and has not notified the Design-Builder of the reason for withholding certification as provided in Section 9.5.1, or because the Owner has not

made payment of undisputed amounts on a Certificate for Payment within the time stated in the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 13.2.1.2 The
Design-Builder may terminate the Contract if, through no act or fault of the Design-Builder, the Architect, a Consultant, a Contractor, a material or equipment supplier, or their agents or employees or any other persons or entities performing
portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the Design-Builder, repeated suspensions, delays or interruptions of the entire Work by the Owner as described in Section 13.2.3 constitute in the aggregate more than 100 percent
of the total number of days scheduled for completion, or 120 days in any 365-day period, whichever is less. 

§ 13.2.1.3 If one
of the reasons described in Section 13.2.1.1 or 13.2.1.2 exists, the Design-Builder may, upon seven days’ written notice to the Owner, terminate the Contract and recover from the Owner payment for Work properly executed prior to the
termination, including reasonable overhead and profit thereon in accordance with the Design-Build Documents, and the actual costs directly incurred by the Design-Builder solely by reason of such termination. 

§ 13.2.1.4 If the
Work is stopped for a period of 60 consecutive days through no act or fault of the Design-Builder or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work under contract with the Design-Builder because the Owner has materially failed to
fulfill the Owner’s obligations under the Design-Build Documents with respect to matters important to the progress of the Work, the Design-Builder may, upon seven additional days’ written notice to the Owner, terminate the Contract and
recover from the Owner as provided in Section 13.2.1.3. 
 § 13.2.2 Termination by the Owner For Cause 

§ 13.2.2.1 The Owner
may terminate the Contract if the Design-Builder 
 .1    fails to submit the Proposal by the date required by this Agreement, or if no date is indicated, within a reasonable time consistent with the date of Substantial Completion; 

.2    refuses or
fails to supply an Architect, or enough properly skilled Consultants, Contractors, or workers or proper materials or to perform the work in a timely manner; 

.3    fails to
make payment to the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, or material and equipment suppliers for services, materials or labor in accordance with their respective agreements with the Design-Builder; 

.4    disregards
applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful orders of a public authority; or 
 .5    becomes insolvent, is adjudged bankrupt, or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes subject of any voluntary
proceeding commenced by the Design-Builder under any statute or law for the relief of debtors; 
 .6     has a receiver, trustee or liquidator of any of the property or income of the Design-Builder appointed in an involuntary proceeding and is
not discharged within 60 days; or 
 .7    is otherwise guilty of substantial breach of a provision of the Design-Build Documents. 

§ 13.2.2.2 When any
of the above reasons exist, the Owner may without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of the Owner and after giving the Design-Builder and the Design-Builder’s surety, if any, seven days’ written notice, terminate employment of the
Design-Builder and may, subject to any prior rights of the surety, if any: 

.1    Exclude the
Design-Builder from the site and take possession of all materials, equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery thereon owned by the Design-Builder; 

.2    Accept
assignment of the Architect, Consultant and Contractor agreements pursuant to Section 3.1.15; and 
 .3    Finish the Work by whatever reasonable method the Owner may deem expedient. 

§ 13.2.2.3 When the
Owner terminates the Contract for one of the reasons stated in Section 13.2.2.1, the Design-Builder shall not be entitled to receive further payment until the Work is finished. 

§ 13.2.2.4 If the
unpaid balance of the Contract Sum exceeds costs of finishing the Work and other damages, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Owner and not expressly waived, such excess shall be paid to the Design-Builder upon request. If
such costs and damages exceed the unpaid balance, the Design-Builder shall pay

§13.2.2.5 If a
court of competent jurisdiction finally determines that termination under this Section 13.2.2 is wrongful, it shall be deemed a termination for convenience under Section 13.2.4 and the Design-Builder’s remedy for such wrongful
termination shall be limited to the remedies specified in Section 13.2.4. 

§ 13.2.3 Suspension by the Owner for Convenience 

§ 13.2.3.1 The Owner
may, without cause, order the Design-Builder in writing to suspend, delay or interrupt the Work in whole or in part for such period of time as the Owner may determine. 

§ 13.2.3.2 Any
adjustment of the Contract Sum and/or the Contract Time relating to a suspension, delay, or interruption by the Owner under this Section 13.2.3 shall be made by Change Order. No adjustment shall be made to the extent

so suspended, delayed or interrupted by another cause for which the Design-Builder is responsible; or 

.2    that an adjustment is made or denied under
another provision of the Contract.

.1    cease
operations as required by the Owner in the notice and use all commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate loss and damages; 

.2    take
actions necessary, or that the Owner may require, for the protection and preservation of the Work; and, 
 .3    except for Work required to be performed prior to the effective date of termination stated in the notice, terminate all existing Project
agreements, including agreements with the Architect, Consultants, Contractors, and purchase orders, and enter into no further Project agreements and purchase orders; and 

.4    
deliver all Drawings, Specifications and other necessary information to the Owner.

actual costs directly incurred by the Design-Builder solely as a result of such termination. 
 §13.2.5 GENERAL PROVISIONS CONCERNING TERMINATION

 §13.2.5.1
The payments provided in the Section 13.2 shall be the parties sole and exclusive remedies for termination of the Contract or the Design-Builder’s right to proceed with the Work 

§13.2.5.2 In the
event the Contract or the Design-Builder’s right to proceed with the Work is terminated for any reason by the Owner, the Design-Builder shall (1) make assignments of contracts, agreements, purchase orders, licenses, permits and other

 ARTICLE 14    CLAIMS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION 

§ 14.1 Claims

§ 14.1.1 Definition.
A Claim is a demand or assertion by the Design-Builder seeking, as a matter of right, payment of money, or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract or the Project. The term “Claim” also includes other disputes and matters in
question between the Owner and Design-Builder arising out of or relating to the Contract. The responsibility to substantiate Claims shall rest with the party pursuing the Claim such substantiation shall be provided promptly and completely. Failure
to comply with this Article 14 shall permit denial of a Claim to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

§ 14.1.2 Time Limits on Claims. The Owner and Design-Builder shall commence all claims and causes of action, whether in contract, tort, breach of warranty or otherwise, against the other arising out of or related to the Contract or the Project
in accordance with the requirements of the binding dispute resolution method selected in Section 1.3, within the time period specified by applicable law. The Owner and Design-Builder waive all claims and causes of action not commenced in
accordance with this Section 14.1.2. 
 § 14.1.3 Notice of Claims 

§ 14.1.3.1 Prior To Final Payment. Except as otherwise provided herein, Claims by either the Owner or Design-Builder must be initiated by written notice to the other party. Any Claims by Design-Builder must be made prior to Final Payment and within
21 days after occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim. 

§ 14.1.3.2 Content of Notice of Claim. Notice of Claim by the Design-Builder shall detail the amounts claimed and provide the following information to permit timely and appropriate evaluation of the claim, determination of responsibility and any
remaining opportunity for mitigation. If the Design-Builder is unable to calculate any amount claimed in detail or provide other required information, the Design-Builder shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to provide an estimate of such
amount and such information. 
  

	 	.1	 Narrative of the circumstances which gave rise to the Claim, including the start date of the event or events
involved and the actual, or anticipated, finish date; 



	 	.2	 Detailed identification of the Work (e.g., activity codes from the construction schedule) affected by the
circumstances which gave rise to the Claims; 



	 	.3	 Detailed calculation of amount of the Claim; 



	 	.4	 Time impact analysis, consistent with critical path methodology for scheduling and demonstrating the impact to
the Design-Builder’s scheduled activities and the actual delay to the critical path of the construction schedule;

	 	.6	 Copies of relevant correspondence and other information regarding or supporting Design-Builder entitlement;




	 	.7	 Copies of Design-Builder’s payroll records for labor impacts claimed by Design-Builder and any
subcontractor affected by the event or events; both Parties, however, agree that this subsection will not apply to the extent that there are agreed upon hourly rates; 



	 	.8	 Copies of invoices for material impacts claimed by the Design-Builder and any subcontractor and material and
equipment supplier affected by the event or events; 



	 	.9	 Copies of equipment records, or rental invoices, for any equipment, impacts claimed by the Design-Builder and
any subcontractor and material and equipment supplier affected by the event or event; and 



	 	.10	 A statement, signed by an authorized representative of the Design-Builder, certifying that the Claim is made in
good faith, the supporting data is accurate and complete to the best of the Design-Builder’s knowledge and belief and the amount, time or other matter requested accurately reflects the entire remedy for the claim and is a fair, reasonable and
necessary adjustment for which the Design-Builder believes the Owner is liable in accordance with the Contract Documents. 


 § 14.1.4 Continuing Contract Performance. Pending final resolution of a Claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing
or as provided in Section 9.7 and Article 13, the Design-Builder shall proceed diligently with performance of the Contract and the Owner shall continue to make payments of undisputed amounts in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.

 § 14.1.5 Claims for
Additional Cost. If the Design-Builder intends to make a Claim for an increase in the Contract Sum, written notice as provided herein shall be given before proceeding to execute the portion of the
Work that relates to the Claim. Prior notice is not required for Claims relating to an emergency endangering life or property arising under Section 10.4. 

§ 14.1.6 Claims for Additional Time 
 § 14.1.6.1 If the Design-Builder intends to make a Claim for an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as
provided herein shall be given to the Owner. The Design-Builder’s Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable effect of delay on progress of the Work. In the case of a continuing delay, only one Claim is necessary. No claim for
delay shall be allowed unless it increases the overall critical path duration of the construction schedule in effect at the time of the delay unless the Design-Builder has used all commercially reasonable efforts to offset such delay by making
appropriate changes to the other parts of the construction schedule and by using available float. 

§ 14.1.6.2 If
adverse weather conditions are the basis for a Claim for additional time, such Claim shall be documented by data substantiating that weather conditions were abnormal for the period of time, could not have been reasonably anticipated, and had an
adverse effect on the scheduled construction. 
 § 14.1.7 Claims for Consequential Damages. 

Except as otherwise provided herein, the Design Builder and Owner waive Claims against each other for consequential damages arising out of or relating to
the Contract. This mutual waiver includes: 
 .1 damages incurred by the Owner for rental expenses for losses of use, income, profit,
financing, business and reputation and for loss of management or employee productivity of the services of such persons; and 
 .2
damages incurred by the Design Builder for principal office expenses including the compensation of personnel stationed there, for losses of financing, business and reputation, and for loss of profit except anticipated profit arising directly from
the Work. 
 This mutual waiver is applicable, without limitation, to all consequential damages due to either party’s termination in accordance
with Article 13.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 14.1.7 shall be deemed to waive or preclude Owner’s right to recover an award of liquidated damages, when applicable, pursuant to
Section 9.8.7 of this Agreement or Owner’s right to recover any losses or damages, including any consequential damages, that (i) are covered by insurance procured by Design-Builder pursuant to this Agreement, including losses or
damages which would be covered by such insurance in the absence of the waiver of consequential damages provided for in this Section 14.1.7; (ii) arise out of or relate to a third party bodily injury or property damage claim which Design-Builder
is obligated to indemnify Owner and/or other persons or entities for, from, or against pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; or (iii) Owner incurs from a third party to the extent caused by intellectual property infringement or the failure
of the Design-Builder or anyone working at the direction of Design-Builder to comply with applicable law. 
 § 14.2 Initial Decision

 § 14.2.1 An
initial decision shall be required as a condition precedent to mediation of all Claims between the Owner and Design-Builder initiated in accordance with Article 14 and prior to the date when final payment is due, excluding those arising under
Sections 10.3 and 10.4 of the Agreement and Sections B.3.2.9 and B.3.2.10 of Exhibit B to this Agreement, unless 30 days have passed after the Claim has been initiated with no decision having been rendered. Unless otherwise mutually agreed in
writing, the Owner shall render the initial decision on Claims.

decision within ten days of receiving the Design Builder’s response: (1) withdrawing the Claim in whole or in part; (2) approving the Claim in whole or in part; or (3) suggesting a compromise. 

§ 14.2.2.2 Claims Initiated by the Design-Builder. If the Design-Builder initiates a Claim, the Owner will take one or more of the following actions within ten days after receipt of the notice required under Section 14.1.3.1: (1) request additional

decision approving the Claim, (4) suggest a compromise or (5) indicate that it is unable to render an initial decision because the Owner lacks sufficient information to evaluate the
merits of the Claim. 
 § 14.2.3 In evaluating Claims, the Owner may, but shall not be obligated to, consult with or seek information from persons with special knowledge or expertise who may assist the Owner in rendering a decision. The
retention of such persons shall be at the Owner’s expense. 

§ 14.2.4 If the
Owner requests the Design-Builder to furnish additional supporting data, the Design-Builder shall respond, within ten days after receipt of such request, and shall either (1) provide a response on the requested supporting data, (2) advise
the Owner when the response or supporting data will be furnished or (3) advise the Owner that no supporting data will be furnished. Upon receipt of the response or supporting data, if any, the Owner will either reject or approve the Claim in
whole or in part. 
 § 14.2.5 The Owner’s initial decision shall (1) be in writing; (2) state the reasons therefor; and (3) identify any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both. The initial decision shall be
final and binding on the parties but subject to mediation and, if the parties fail to resolve their dispute through mediation, to binding dispute resolution. 

§ 14.2.6 Either
party may file for mediation of an initial decision at any time, subject to the terms of Section 14.2.6.1. 

§ 14.2.6.1 Either
party may, within 30 days from the date of an initial decision, demand in writing that the other party file for mediation within 60 days of the initial decision. If such a demand is made and the party receiving the demand fails to file for mediation
within the time required, then both parties waive their rights to mediate or pursue binding dispute resolution proceedings with respect to the initial decision. 

§ 14.2.7

disputes, or other matters in controversy arising out of or related to the Contract or the Project, except those waived as provided for in Sections 9.10.4, 9.10.5, and 14.1.7, shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to binding dispute
resolution. 
 § 14.3.2 The Owner and Design-Builder shall endeavor to resolve their Claims by mediation which, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise, shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance
with its Construction Industry Mediation Procedures then in effect. A request for mediation shall be made in writing, delivered to the other party to the Contract, and filed with the person or entity administering the mediation. The request may be
made concurrently with the filing of binding dispute resolution proceedings but, in such event, mediation shall proceed in advance of binding dispute resolution proceedings, which shall be stayed pending mediation for a period of 60 days from the
date of filing, unless stayed for a longer period by agreement of the parties or court order. 
 § 14.3.3 The parties shall share the mediator’s fee and any filing fees equally. The mediation shall be held in the place where the Project is located, unless
another location is mutually agreed upon. Agreements reached in mediation shall be enforceable as settlement agreements in any court having jurisdiction. In no event shall any mediator be permitted to serve as an arbitrator in any arbitration
relating to the Project or as a witness in any litigation relating to the Project.

 § 15.2 Successors and Assigns 

§ 15.2.1 The Owner
and Design-Builder, respectively, bind themselves, their partners, successors, assigns and legal representatives to the covenants, agreements and obligations contained in the Design-Build Documents. Except as provided in Section 15.2.2, neither
party to the Contract shall assign the Contract as a whole without written consent of the other. If either party attempts to make such an assignment without such consent, that party shall nevertheless remain legally responsible for all obligations
under the Contract. 
 § 15.2.2 Notwithstanding Section 15.2.1, the Owner reserves the right, upon notice to the Design-Builder, to assign this Agreement to a Kentucky governmental authority in order to facilitate incentive-related
financing for the Project or to other persons or other entities who are ready and capable of performing the Owner’s obligations under this Agreement; and notwithstanding such assignment, Owner shall remain liable to Design Builder for all
obligations under this Agreement, including but not limited to timely payment Design-Builder shall execute all consents and amendments reasonably required to facilitate such assignment, so long as the assignment reflects Owner’s continuing
payment obligations under this Agreement. Owner shall not use such assignment as a defense to any obligation hereunder.

other than those required by Section 3.1.10, the Owner shall submit the proposed language of such certificates for review at least 7 days prior to the requested dates of execution. If the Owner requests the Design-Builder, Architect,
Consultants, or Contractors to execute consents reasonably required to facilitate assignment to a lender, the Design-Builder, Architect, Consultants, or Contractors shall execute all such consents that are consistent with this Agreement, provided
the proposed consent is submitted to them for review at least 7 days prior to execution. The Design-Builder, Architect, Consultants, and Contractors shall not be required to execute certificates or consents that would require knowledge, services or
responsibilities beyond the scope of their services. 
 § 15.3 Written Notice 

Written notice shall be deemed to have been duly served if delivered in person to the individual, to a member of the firm or entity, or to an officer of the
corporation for which it was intended; or if delivered at, or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or by courier service providing proof of delivery to, the last business address known to the party giving notice.

shall be in addition to and not a limitation of duties, obligations, rights and remedies otherwise imposed or available by law or in equity. 
 § 15.4.2 No action or failure to act by the Owner or Design-Builder shall constitute a waiver of a right or duty
afforded them under the Contract, nor shall such action or failure to act constitute approval of or acquiescence in a breach thereunder, except as may be specifically agreed in writing. 

§ 15.5 Tests and Inspections 
 § 15.5.1 Tests, inspections and approvals of portions of the Work shall be made as required by the Design-Build
Documents and by applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations or lawful orders of public authorities. Unless otherwise provided, the Design-Builder shall make arrangements for such tests, inspections and approvals with an
independent testing laboratory or entity acceptable to the Owner, or with the appropriate public authority, and shall bear all related costs of tests, inspections and approvals. The Design-Builder shall give the Owner timely notice of when and where
tests and inspections are to be made so that the Owner may be present for such procedures. The Owner shall bear costs of (1) tests, inspections or approvals that do not become requirements of laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules, or
regulations until after this Agreement is signed, and (2) tests, inspections or approvals where building codes or applicable laws or regulations prohibit the Owner from delegating their cost to the Design-Builder. 

§ 15.5.2 If the
Owner determines that portions of the Work require additional testing, inspection or approval not included under Section 15.5.1, the Owner will instruct the Design-Builder to make arrangements for such additional testing, inspection or approval
by an entity acceptable to the Owner, and the Design-Builder shall give timely notice

to the Owner of when and where tests and inspections are to be made so that the Owner may be present for such procedures. Such costs, except as provided in Section 15.5.3, shall be at the
Owner’s expense. 
 § 15.5.3 If such procedures for testing, inspection or approval under Sections 15.5.1 and 15.5.2 reveal failure of the portions of the Work to comply with requirements established by the Design-Build Documents, all costs
made necessary by such failure shall be at the Design-Builder’s expense. 
 § 15.5.4 Required certificates of testing, inspection or approval shall, unless otherwise required by the Design-Build Documents, be secured by the Design-Builder and

Section 15.6.1. 
 § 15.6.1 A party receiving Confidential Information may disclose the Confidential Information as required by law or court order, including a subpoena or other form of compulsory legal process issued by a court or
governmental entity. A party receiving Confidential Information may also disclose the Confidential Information to its employees, consultants or contractors in order to perform services or work solely and exclusively for the Project, provided those
employees, consultants and contractors are subject to the restrictions on the disclosure and use of Confidential Information as set forth in this Contract. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Design-Builder hereby acknowledges and consents to
Owner’s disclosure of this Agreement and the information herein to the extent required by applicable law, Securities & Exchange Commission rules and regulations, or stock exchange rules.

Contract include those that are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles of numbered articles or (3) the titles of other documents published by the American Institute of Architects. 

§ 15.8 Interpretation 

§ 15.8.1 In the
interest of brevity the Design-Build Documents frequently omit modifying words such as “all” and “any” and articles such as “the” and “an,” but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one
statement and appears in another is not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement. 

§ 15.8.2 Unless
otherwise stated in the Design-Build Documents, words which have well-known technical or construction industry meanings are used in the Design-Build Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings. 

§15.8.3 Wherever
possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law. If, however, any provision of this Agreement, or portion thereof, is prohibited by law or found invalid under any law,
only such provision or portion thereof shall be ineffective, without in any manner invalidating or affecting the remaining provisions of this Agreement or valid portions of such provision, which are hereby deemed severable. 

§15.8.4 The
provisions of the Design-Build Documents shall not be changed, amended, waived, or otherwise modified in any respect except by a writing signed by Owner. No person is authorized on behalf of Owner to orally change, amend, waive, or otherwise modify
the terms of the Contract Documents or any of the Design-Builder’s duties or obligations under or arising out of the Contract Documents. Any change, waiver, approval, or consent granted to the Design-Builder shall be limited to the specific
matters stated in the writing signed by Owner and shall

 § A.1.5.1.4 With each Application for Payment, the Design-Builder shall submit all documents required by Section 9.3 of the Agreement, payrolls, petty cash accounts, receipted invoices or invoices with check vouchers
attached, and any other evidence required by the Owner to demonstrate that cash disbursements already made by the Design-Builder on account of the Cost of the Work equal or exceed (1) progress payments already received by the Design-Builder,
less (2) that portion of those payments attributable to the Design-Builder’s Fee; plus (3) payrolls for the period covered by the present Application for Payment. 

§ A.1.5.1.5 With each Application for Payment, the
Design-Builder shall submit the most recent schedule of values in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. The schedule of values shall allocate the entire Contract Sum among the various portions of the Work. Compensation for design services, if

data; to have made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections; or to have made examinations to ascertain how or for what purposes the Design-Builder has used amounts previously paid. Such examinations,
audits and verifications, if required by the Owner, will be performed by the Owner’s auditors acting in the sole interest of the Owner. 
 § A.1.5.1.7 Except with the Owner’s prior approval, the Design-Builder shall not make advance payments to suppliers for materials or equipment which
have not been delivered and stored at the site. 












 § A.1.5.2 [Intentionally blank] 

§ A.1.5.3 [Intentionally blank] 

§ A.1.5.4 Progress Payments—Cost of the Work Plus a Fee with a Guaranteed Maximum 
Price 
 § A.1.5.4.1 Applications for Payment where
the Contract Sum is based upon the Cost of the Work Plus a Fee with a Guaranteed Maximum Price shall show the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the Application for Payment. The percentage of
completion shall be the lesser of (1) the percentage of that portion of the Work which has actually been completed; or (2) the percentage obtained by dividing (a) the expense that has actually been incurred by the Design-Builder on
account of that portion of the Work for which the Design-Builder has made or intends to make actual payment prior to the next Application for Payment by (b) the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the
schedule of values. 
 § A.1.5.4.2 Subject to
other provisions of the Design-Build Documents, the amount of each progress payment shall be computed as follows: 

	 	.1	 Take that portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly allocable to completed Work as determined by multiplying the
percentage of completion of each portion of the Work by the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values. Pending final determination of cost to the Owner of changes in the Work, amounts not
in dispute shall be included as provided in Section 6.3.9 of the Agreement. 



	 	.2	 Add that portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly allocable to materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at
the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work, or if approved in advance by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing; 



	 	.3	 Add the Design-Builder’s Fee, less retainage of « ten » percent
( « 10 » %) until 50% of the Project is complete and thereafter 5% shall be retained in accordance with Kentucky law. The Design-Builder’s Fee shall be computed upon the Cost of the Work
at the rate stated in Section A.1.4.2 or, if the Design-Builder’s Fee is stated as a fixed sum in that Section, shall be an amount that bears the same ratio to that fixed-sum fee as the Cost of the Work
bears to a reasonable estimate of the probable Cost of the Work upon its completion; 



	 	.4	 Subtract retainage of « ten » percent ( « 10 » %) until 50% of the Project is complete and thereafter 5% shall be retained in accordance with Kentucky law from that portion of the Work that the Design-Builder self-performs;




	 	.5	 Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by the Owner; 



	 	.6	 Subtract the shortfall, if any, indicated by the Design-Builder in the documentation required by Section A.1.5.1.4 to
substantiate prior Applications for Payment, or resulting from errors subsequently discovered by the Owner’s auditors in such documentation; and 



	 	.7	 Subtract amounts, if any, for which the Owner has withheld or nullified a payment as provided in Section 9.5 of the
Agreement. 


 § A.1.5.4.3 The Owner and
Design-Builder shall agree upon (1) a mutually acceptable procedure for review and approval of payments to the Architect, Consultants, and Contractors and (2) the percentage of retainage held on agreements with the Architect, Consultants,
and Contractors; and the Design-Builder shall execute agreements in accordance with those terms. 
 § A.1.5.5 Final Payment 

§ A.1.5.5.1 Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance
of the Contract Sum, shall be made by the Owner to the Design-Builder not later than 30 days after the Design-Builder has fully performed the Contract and the requirements of Section 9.10 of the Agreement have been satisfied, except for the
Design-Builder’s responsibility to correct non-conforming Work discovered after final payment or to satisfy other requirements, if any, which extend beyond final payment. 

§ A.1.5.5.2 The Owner’s auditors will review and report in
writing on the Design-Builder’s final accounting within 30 days after the Design-Builder delivers the final accounting to the Owner. Based upon the Cost of the Work the Owner’s auditors report to be substantiated by the
Design-Builder’s final accounting, and provided the other conditions of Section 9.10 of the Agreement have been met, the Owner will, within seven days after receipt of the written report of the













 
Owner’s auditors, either issue a final Certificate for Payment, or notify the Design-Builder in writing of the reasons for withholding a certificate as provided in Section 9.5.1 of the
Agreement.

another bid be accepted, then the Design-Builder may request that a Change Order be issued to adjust the Guaranteed Maximum Price by the difference between the bid of the person or entity recommended to the Owner by the Design-Builder and the amount
of the subcontract or other agreement actually signed with the person or entity designated by the Owner. 
 §
A.5.4.2 Agreements between the Design-Builder and Contractors shall conform to the applicable provisions of the Design-Build Documents, and shall not be awarded on the basis of cost plus a fee
without the prior consent of the Owner. If an agreement between the Design Builder and a Contractor is awarded on a cost plus a fee basis, the Design-Builder shall provide in the agreement for the Owner to receive the same audit rights with regard
to the Cost of the Work performed by the Contractor as the Owner receives with regard to the Design-Builder in Section A.5.5, below. 
 § A.5.4.3 The agreements between the Design-Builder and Architect and other Consultants identified in the Agreement shall be in writing. These agreements shall be
