6.1 Claims, disputes or other matters in question between the parties to this
Part 1 Agreement arising out of or relating to this Part 1 Agreement or breach
thereof shall be subject to and decided by mediation or arbitration. Such
mediation or arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Construction
Industry Mediation or Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
currently in effect.

with the other party to this Part 1 Agreement and with the American Arbitration
Association. A demand for mediation shall be made within a reasonable time after
the claim, dispute or other matter in question has arisen. In no event shall the
demand for mediation be made after the date when 



                                                                       A191-1996
                                                                   PART 1-PAGE 5

Agreement shall include, by consolidation, joinder or in any other manner, an

to an agreement with the Design/Builder, except by written consent containing a
specific reference to this Part 1 Agreement signed by the Owner, the

                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS --- PART 2 AGREEMENT






                                       ARTICLE 1
                                  GENERAL PROVISIONS

1.1      BASIC DEFINITIONS

1.1.1 The Contract Documents consist of the Part 1 Agreement to the extent not
modified by this Part 2 Agreement, this Part 2 Agreement, the Design/Builder's
Proposal and written addenda to the Proposal identified in Article 14, the
Construction Documents approved by the Owner in accordance with Subparagraph
3.2.3 and Modifications issued after execution of this Part 2 Agreement. A
Modification is a Change Order or a written amendment to this Part 2 Agreement
signed by both parties, or a Construction Change Directive issued by the Owner
in accordance with Paragraph 8.3.

1.1.2 The term "Work" means the construction and services provided by the
Design/Builder to fulfill the Design/Builder's obligations.

1.2  EXECUTION, CORRELATION AND INTENT

1.2.1 It is the intent of the Owner and Design/Builder that the Contract
Documents include all items necessary for proper execution and completion of the
Work. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one
shall be as binding as if required by all; performance by the Design/Builder
shall be required only to the extent consistent with and reasonably inferable
from the Contract Documents as being necessary to produce the intended results.
Words that have well-known technical or construction industry meanings are used
in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings.

1.2.2 If the Design/Builder believes or is advised by the Architect or by
another design professional retained to provide services on the Project that
implementation of any instruction received from the Owner would cause a
violation of any applicable law, the Design/Builder shall notify the Owner in
writing. Neither the Design/Builder nor the Architect shall be obligated to
perform any act which either believes will violate any applicable law.

1.2.3 Nothing contained in this Part 2 Agreement shall create a contractual
relationship between the Owner and any person or entity other than the
Design/Builder.

1.3 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DOCUMENTS

1.3.1 Drawings, specifications, and other documents and electronic data
furnished by the Design/Builder are instruments of service. The Design/Builder's
Architect and other providers of professional services shall retain all common
law, statutory and other reserved rights, including copyright in those
instruments of service furnished by them. Drawings, specifications, and other
documents and electronic data are furnished for use solely with respect to this
Part 2 Agreement. The Owner shall be permitted to retain copies, including
reproducible copies, of the drawings, specifications, and other documents and
electronic data furnished by the Design/Builder for information and reference in
connection with the Project except as provided in Subparagraphs 1.3.2 and
1.3.3. 

1.3.2 Drawings, specifications, and other documents and electronic data
furnished by the Design/Builder shall not be used by the Owner or others on
other projects, for additions to this Project or for completion of this Project
by others, except by agreement in writing and with appropriate compensation to
the Design/Builder, unless the Design/Builder is adjudged to be in default under
this Part 2 Agreement or under any other subsequently executed agreement.

1.3.3 If the Design/Builder defaults in the Design/Builder's obligations to the
Owner, the Architect shall grant a license to the Owner to use the drawings,
specifications, and other documents and electronic data furnished by the
Architect to the Design/Builder for the completion of the Project, conditioned
upon the Owner's execution of an agreement to cure the Design/Builder's default
in payment to the Architect for services previously performed and to indemnify
the Architect with regard to claims arising from such reuse without the
Architect's professional involvement.

1.3.4 Submission or distribution of the Design/Builder's documents 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 rights
reserved in Subparagraph 1.3.1.

Owner. The Owner may obtain independent review of the Contract Documents by a
separate architect, engineer, contractor, or cost estimator under contract to or
employed by the Owner. Such independent review shall be undertaken at the

through 2.6 which are within the Owner's control shall be furnished at the
Owner's expense, and the Design/Builder shall be entitled to rely upon the
accuracy and completeness thereof, except to the extent the Owner advises the
Design/Builder to the contrary in writing.

2.8 If the Owner requires the Design/Builder to maintain any special insurance
coverage, policy, amendment, or rider, the Owner shall pay the additional cost
thereof, except as otherwise stipulated in this Part 2 Agreement.

Work or nonconformity with the Design/Builder's Proposal or the Construction
Documents, the Owner shall give prompt written notice thereof to the

an act or neglect of the Owner, Owner's employees, or separate contractors
employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by 


                                                                       A191-1996

labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, adverse weather conditions
not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the
Design/Builder's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner pending
arbitration, or by other causes which the Owner and Design/Builder agree may
justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be reasonably extended by Change
Order.

                                       PAYMENTS


5.1      PROGRESS PAYMENTS

5.1.1 The Design/Builder shall deliver to the Owner itemized Applications for
Payment in such detail as indicated in Article 14.

5.1.2 Within ten (10) days of the Owner's receipt of a properly submitted and
correct Application for Payment, the Owner shall make payment to the
Design/Builder.

5.1.3 The Application for Payment shall constitute a representation by the
Design/Builder to the Owner that the design and construction have progressed to
the point indicated; the quality of the Work covered by the application is in
accordance with the Contract Documents, and the Design/Builder is entitled to
payment in the amount requested.

5.1.4 Upon receipt of payment from the Owner, the Design/Builder shall promptly
pay the Architect, other design professionals and each contractor the amount to
which each is entitled in accordance with the terms of their respective
contracts.

5.1.5 The Owner shall have no obligation under this Part 2 Agreement to pay or
to be responsible in any way for payment to the Architect, another design
professional, or a contractor performing portions of the Work.

5.1.6 Neither progress payment nor partial or entire use or occupancy of the
Project by the Owner shall constitute an acceptance of Work not in accordance
with the Contract Documents.

5.1.7 The Design/Builder warrants that title to all construction 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 construction for which payments have been received
from the Owner shall be free and clear of liens, claims, security interests or
encumbrances in favor of the Design/Builder or any other person or entity
performing construction at the site or furnishing materials or equipment
relating to the construction.

5.1.8 At the time of Substantial Completion, the Owner shall pay the
Design/Builder the retainage, if any, less the reasonable cost to correct or
complete incorrect or incomplete Work. Final payment of such withheld sum shall
be made upon correction or completion of such Work.

5.2      FINAL PAYMENT

5.2.1 Neither final payment nor amounts retained, if any, 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 Owner's property might be responsible or encumbered (less
amounts withheld by the Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied; (2) a
certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to
remain in force after final payment is currently in effect and will not be
canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has
been given to the Owner; (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 Contract Documents; (4) consent of surety, if any, to
final payment; and (5) if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment
or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens,
claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract, to the
extent and in such form as may be designated by the Owner. If a contractor or
other person or entity entitled to assert a lien against the Owner's property
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 such
lien. If such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the
Design/Builder shall indemnify the Owner for all loss and cost, including
reasonable attorney's fees incurred as a result of such lien.

5.2.2 When the Work has been completed and the contract fully performed, the
Design/Builder shall submit a final application for payment to the Owner who
shall make final payment within 30 days of receipt.

5.2.3 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of claims by the
Owner except those arising from:

         .1       liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising
                  out of the Contract and unsettled;

         .2       failure of the Work to comply with the requirements of the
                  Contract Documents; or

         .3       terms of special warranties required by the Contract
                  Documents.

5.2.4 Acceptance of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by
the Design/Builder except those previously made in writing and identified by the
Design/Builder as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment.

5.3      INTEREST PAYMENTS

5.3.1 Payments due the Design/Builder under this Part 2 Agreement which are not
paid when due shall bear interest from the date due at the rate specified in
Article 13, or in the absence of a specified rate, at the legal rate prevailing
where the Project is located.

6.2 The Design/Builder shall take reasonable precautions for the safety of, and
shall provide reasonable protection to prevent damage, injury or loss to: (1)
employees on the Work and other persons who may be affected thereby; (2) the
Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage
on or off the site, under care, custody, or control of the Design/Builder or the
Design/Builder's contractors; and (3) other property at or adjacent thereto,
such as trees, shrubs, lawns, walks, pavements, roadways, structures and
utilities not designated for removal, relocation, or replacement in the course
of construction.

6.3 The Design/Builder shall give notices and comply with applicable laws,
ordinances, rules, regulations and lawful orders of public authorities bearing
on the safety of persons or property or their protection from damage, injury or
loss.

or loss insured under property insurance provided or required by the Contract
Documents) to property at the site caused in whole or in part by the
Design/Builder, a contractor of the Design/Builder or anyone directly or
indirectly employed by any of them, or by anyone for whose acts they may be
liable.

                                  INSURANCE AND BONDS

7.1      DESIGN/BUILDER'S LIABILITY INSURANCE

7.1.1 The Design/Builder shall purchase from and maintain, in a company or
companies lawfully authorized to do business in the jurisdiction in which the
Project is located, such insurance as will protect the Design/Builder from
claims set forth below which may arise out of or result from operations under
this Part 2 Agreement by the Design/Builder or by a contractor of the
Design/Builder, or by anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or
by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable:

         .1       claims under workers' compensation, disability benefit and
                  other similar employee benefit laws that are applicable to the
                  Work to be performed;

         .2       claims for damages because of bodily injury, occupational
                  sickness or disease, or death of the Design/Builder's
                  employees;

         .3       claims for damages because of bodily injury, sickness or
                  disease, or death of persons other than the Design/Builder's
                  employees;

         .4       claims for damages covered by usual personal injury liability
                  coverage which are sustained (1) by a person as a result of an
                  offense directly or indirectly related to employment of such
                  person by the Design/Builder or (2) by another person;

         .5       claims for damages, other than to the Work itself, because of
                  injury to or destruction of tangible property, including loss
                  of use resulting therefrom;

         .6       claims for damages because of bodily injury, death of a person
                  or property damage arising out of ownership, maintenance or
                  use of a motor vehicle; and

         .7       claims involving contractual liability insurance applicable to
                  the Design/Builder's obligations under Paragraph 11.5.

7.1.2 The insurance required by Subparagraph 7.1.1 shall be written for not less
than limits of liability specified in this Part 2 Agreement or required by law,
whichever coverage is greater. Coverages, whether written on an occurrence or
claims-made basis, shall be maintained without interruption from date of
commencement of the Work until date of final payment and termination of any
coverage required to be maintained after final payment.

7.1.3 Certificates of Insurance acceptable to the Owner shall be delivered to 
the Owner immediately after execution of this Part 2 Agreement. These
Certificates and the insurance policies required by this Paragraph 7.1 shall
contain a provision that coverages afforded under the policies will not be
canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has
been given to the Owner. If any of the foregoing insurance coverages are
required to remain in force after final payment, an additional certificate
evidencing continuation of such coverage shall be submitted with the application
for final payment. Information concerning reduction of coverage shall be
furnished by the Design/Builder with reasonable promptness in accordance with
the Design/Builder's information and belief.

7.2      OWNER'S LIABILITY INSURANCE

7.2.1 The Owner shall be responsible for purchasing and maintaining the Owner's
usual liability insurance. Optionally, the Owner may purchase and maintain other
insurance for self-protection against claims which may arise from operations
under this Part 2 Agreement. The Design/Builder shall not be responsible for
purchasing and maintaining this optional Owner's liability insurance unless
specifically required by the Contract Documents.

7.3      PROPERTY INSURANCE

7.3.1 Unless otherwise provided under this Part 2 Agreement, the Owner shall
purchase and maintain, in a company or companies authorized to do business in
the jurisdiction in which the principal improvements are to be located, property
insurance upon the Work to the full insurable value thereof on a replacement
cost basis without optional deductibles. Such property insurance shall be
maintained, unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents or otherwise
agreed in writing by all persons and entities who are beneficiaries of such
insurance, until final payment has been made or until no person or entity other
than the Owner has an insurable interest in the property required by this
Paragraph 7.3 to be insured, whichever is earlier. This insurance shall include
interests of the Owner, the Design/Builder, and their respective contractors and
subcontractors in the Work.

7.3.2 Property insurance shall be on an all-risk policy form and shall insure
against the perils of fire and extended coverage and physical loss or damage
including, without duplication of coverage, theft, vandalism, malicious
mischief, collapse, falsework, temporary buildings and 

                                                                       A191-1996
                                                                   Part 2-Page 7
<PAGE>   18
debris removal including demolition occasioned by enforcement of any
applicable legal requirements, and shall cover reasonable compensation for the
services and expenses of the Design/Builder's Architect and other professionals
required as a result of such insured loss. Coverage for other perils shall not
be required unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents.

7.3.3 If the Owner does not intend to purchase such property insurance required
by this Part 2 Agreement and with all of the coverages in the amount described
above, the Owner shall so inform the Design/Builder prior to commencement of the
construction. The Design/Builder may then effect insurance which will protect
the interests of the Design/Builder and the Design/Builder's contractors in the
construction, and by appropriate Change Order the cost thereof shall be charged
to the Owner. If the Design/Builder is damaged by the failure or neglect of the
Owner to purchase or maintain insurance as described above, then the Owner shall
bear all reasonable costs properly attributable thereto.

7.3.4 Unless otherwise provided, the Owner shall purchase and maintain such
boiler and machinery insurance required by this Part 2 Agreement or by law,
which shall specifically cover such insured objects during installation and
until final acceptance by the Owner. This insurance shall include interests of
the Owner, the Design/Builder, the Design/Builder's contractors and
subcontractors in the Work, and the Design/Builder's Architect and other design
professionals. The Owner and the Design/Builder shall be named insureds.

7.3.5 A loss insured under Owner's property insurance shall be adjusted by the
Owner as fiduciary and made payable to the Owner as fiduciary for the insureds,
as their interests may appear, subject to requirements of any applicable
mortgagee clause and of Subparagraph 7.3.10. The Design/Builder shall pay
contractors their shares of insurance proceeds received by the Design/Builder,
and by appropriate agreement, written where legally required for validity, shall
require contractors to make payments to their subcontractors in similar manner.

7.3.6 Before an exposure to loss may occur, the Owner shall file with the
Design/Builder a copy of each policy that includes insurance coverages required
by this Paragraph 7.3. Each policy shall contain all generally applicable
conditions, definitions, exclusions and endorsements related to this Project.
Each policy shall contain a provision that the policy will not be canceled or
allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has been given to
the Design/Builder.

7.3.7 If the Design/Builder requests in writing that insurance for risks other
than those described herein or for other special hazards be included in the
property insurance policy, the Owner shall, if possible, obtain such insurance,
and the cost thereof shall be charged to the Design/Builder by appropriate
Change Order.

7.3.8 The Owner and Design/Builder waive all rights against each other and the
Architect and other design professionals, contractors, subcontractors, agents
and employees, each of the other, for damages caused by fire or other perils to
the extent covered by property insurance obtained pursuant to this Paragraph 7.3
or other property insurance applicable to the Work, except such rights as they
may have to proceeds of such insurance held by the Owner as trustee. The Owner
or Design/Builder, as appropriate, shall require from contractors and
subcontractors by appropriate agreements, written where legally required for
validity, similar waivers each in favor of other parties enumerated in this
Paragraph 7.3. The policies shall provide such waivers of subrogation by
endorsement or otherwise. A waiver of subrogation shall be effective as to a
person or entity even though that person or entity would otherwise have a duty
of indemnification, contractual or otherwise, did not pay the insurance premium
directly or indirectly, and whether or not the person or entity had an insurable
interest in the property damaged.

7.3.9 If required in writing by a party in interest, the Owner as trustee shall,
upon occurrence of an insured loss, give bond for proper performance of the
Owner's duties. The cost of required bonds shall be charged against proceeds
received as fiduciary. The Owner shall deposit in a separate account proceeds so
received, which the Owner shall distribute in accordance with such agreement as
the parties in interest may reach, or in accordance with an arbitration award in
which case the procedure shall be as provided in Article 10. If after such loss
no other special agreement is made, replacement of damaged Work shall be
covered by appropriate Change Order.

7.3.10 The Owner as trustee shall have power to adjust and settle a loss with
insurers unless one of the parties in interest shall object in writing, within
five (5) days after occurrence of loss to the Owner's exercise of this power; if
such objection be made, the parties shall enter into dispute resolution under
procedures provided in Article 10. If distribution of insurance proceeds by
arbitration is required, the arbitrators will direct such distribution.

7.3.11 Partial occupancy or use prior to Substantial Completion shall not
commence until the insurance company or companies providing property insurance
have consented to such partial occupancy or use by endorsement or otherwise. The
Owner and the Design/Builder shall take reasonable steps to obtain consent of
the insurance company or companies and shall not, without mutual written
consent, take any action with respect to partial occupancy or use that would
cause cancellation, lapse or reduction of coverage.

7.4      LOSS OF USE INSURANCE

7.4.1 The Owner, at the Owner's option, may purchase and maintain such insurance
as will insure the Owner against loss of use of the Owner's property due to fire
or other hazards, however caused. The Owner waives all rights of action against
the Design/Builder for loss of use of the Owner's property, including
consequential losses due to fire or other hazards, however caused.

                                  CHANGES IN THE WORK

8.1      CHANGES

8.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of this Part 2
Agreement, without invalidating this Part 2 Agreement, by Change Order,
Construction Change Directive, or order for a minor change in the Work, subject
to the limitations stated in the Contract Documents.

8.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement between the Owner and the
Design/Builder; a Construction Change Directive may be issued by the Owner
without the agreement of the Design/Builder; an order for a minor change in the
Work may be issued by the Design/Builder alone.

8.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the
Contract Documents, and the Design/Builder shall proceed promptly, unless
otherwise provided in the Change Order, Construction Change Directive, or order
for a minor change in the Work.

8.1.4 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed
upon, and if quantities originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed
Change Order or Construction Change Directive that application of such unit
prices to quantities of Work proposed will cause substantial inequity to the
Owner or the Design/Builder, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably
adjusted.

8.2      CHANGE ORDERS

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

     .1  a change in the Work;

     .2  the amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum; and

     .3  the extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time.

8.2.2 If the Owner requests a proposal for a change in the Work from the
Design/Builder and subsequently elects not to proceed with the change, a Change
Order shall be issued to reimburse the Design/Builder for any costs incurred for
estimating services, design services or preparation of proposed revisions to the
Contract Documents.

8.3      CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVES

8.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written order prepared and signed by
the Owner, directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if
any, in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both.

8.3.2 Except as otherwise agreed by the Owner and the Design/Builder, the
adjustment to the Contract Sum shall be determined on the basis of reasonable
expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the
change, including the expenditures for design services and revisions to the
Contract Documents. In case of an increase in the Contract Sum, the cost shall
include a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit. In such case, the
Design/Builder shall keep and present an itemized accounting together with
appropriate supporting data for inclusion in a Change Order. Unless otherwise
provided in the Contract Documents, costs for these purposes shall be limited to
the following:

     .1  costs of labor, including social security, old age and unemployment
         insurance, fringe benefits required by agreement or custom, and
         workers' compensation insurance;

     .2  costs of materials, supplies and equipment, including cost
         of transportation, whether incorporated or consumed;

     .3  rental costs of machinery and equipment exclusive of hand
         tools, whether rented from the Design/Builder or others;

     .4  costs of premiums for all bonds and insurance permit fees,
         and sales, use or similar taxes;

     .5  additional costs of supervision and field office personnel directly
         attributable to the change; and fees paid to the Architect, engineers
         and other professionals.

8.3.3 Pending final determination of cost to the Owner, amounts not in dispute
may be included in Applications for Payment. The amount of credit to be allowed
by the Design/Builder to the Owner for deletion or change which results in a net
decrease in the Contract Sum will 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 the net
increase, if any, with respect to that change.

8.3.4 When the Owner and the Design/Builder agree upon the adjustments in the
Contract Sum and Contract Time, such agreement shall be effective immediately
and shall be recorded by preparation and execution of an appropriate Change
Order.

8.4      MINOR CHANGES IN THE WORK

8.4.1 The Design/Builder shall have authority to make minor changes in the
Construction Documents and construction consistent with the intent of the
Contract Documents when such minor changes do not involve adjustment in the
Contract Sum or extension of the Contract Time. The Design/Builder shall
promptly inform the Owner, in writing, of minor changes in the Construction
Documents and construction.

8.5      CONCEALED CONDITIONS

8.5.1 If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1) subsurface or
otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those
indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an
unusual nature, which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and
generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character
provided for in the Contract Documents, then notice by the observing party shall
be given to the other party promptly before conditions are disturbed and in no


                                                                       A191-1996
                                                                   Part 2-Page 9
<PAGE>   20
event later than 21 days after first observance of the conditions. The Contract
Sum shall be equitably adjusted for such concealed or unknown conditions by
Change Order upon claim by either party made within 21 days after the claimant
becomes aware of the conditions.

8.6           REGULATORY CHANGES

8.6.1 The Design/Builder shall be compensated for changes in the construction
necessitated by the enactment or revisions of codes, laws or regulations
subsequent to the submission of the Design/Builder's proposal.


                                       ARTICLE 9
                                  CORRECTION OF WORK

9.1 The Design/Builder shall promptly correct Work rejected by the Owner or
known by the Design/Builder to be defective or failing to conform to the
requirements of the Contract Documents, whether observed before or after
Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or completed.
The Design/Builder shall bear costs of correcting such rejected Work, including
additional testing and inspections.

9.2 If, within one (1) year after the date of Substantial Completion of the Work
or, after the date for commencement of warranties established in a written
agreement between the Owner and the Design/Builder, or by terms of an applicable
special warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found to
be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the
Design/Builder shall correct it promptly after receipt of a written notice from
the Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Design/Builder a
written acceptance of such condition.

9.3 Nothing contained in this Article 9 shall be construed to establish a period
of limitation with respect to other obligations which the Design/Builder might
have under the Contract Documents. Establishment of the time period of one (1)
year as described in Subparagraph 9.2 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 Contract 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. 

9.4 If the Design/Builder fails to correct nonconforming Work as required or
fails to carry out Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Owner, by
written order signed personally or by an agent specifically so empowered by the
Owner in writing, may order the Design/Builder to stop the Work, or any portion
thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, the
Owner's right to stop the Work shall not give rise to a duty on the part of the
Owner to exercise the right for benefit of the Design/Builder or other persons
or entities. 

9.5 If the Design/Builder defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents and fails within seven (7) days after
receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of
such default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may give a
second written notice to the Design/Builder and, seven (7) days following
receipt by the Design/Builder of that second written notice and without
prejudice to other remedies the Owner may have, correct such deficiencies. In
such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued deducting from payments
then or thereafter due the Design/Builder costs of correcting such deficiencies.
If the payments then or thereafter due the Design/Builder are not sufficient to
cover the amount of the deduction, the Design/Builder shall pay the difference
to the Owner. Such action by the Owner shall be subject to dispute resolution
procedures as provided in Article 10.

                               MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION

10.1 Claims, disputes or other matters in question between the parties to this
Part 2 Agreement arising out of or relating to this Part 2 Agreement or breach
thereof shall be subject to and decided by mediation or arbitration. Such
mediation or arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Construction
Industry Mediation or Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association
currently in effect.

10.2 In addition to and prior to arbitration, the parties shall endeavor to
settle disputes by mediation. Demand for mediation shall be filed in writing
with the other party to this Part 2 Agreement and with the American Arbitration
Association. A demand for mediation shall be made within a reasonable time after
the claim, dispute, or other matter in question has arisen. In no event shall
the demand for mediation be made after the date when institution of legal or
equitable proceedings based on such claim, dispute or other matter in question
would be barred by the applicable statute of repose or limitations. 

10.3 Demand for arbitration shall be filed in writing with the other party to
this Part 2 Agreement and with the American Arbitration Association. A demand
for arbitration shall be made within a reasonable time after the claim, dispute
or other matter in question has arisen. In no event shall the demand for
arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable
proceedings based on such claim, dispute or other matter in question would be
barred by the applicable statutes of repose or limitations.

10.4 An arbitration pursuant to this Paragraph may be joined with an arbitration
involving common issues of law or fact between the Design/Builder and any person
or entity with whom the Design/Builder has a contractual obligation to arbitrate
disputes. No other arbitration arising out of or relating to this Part 2
Agreement shall include, by consolidation, joinder or in any other manner, an
additional person or entity not a party to this Part 2 Agreement or not a party

                                   ARTICLE 11
                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

11.1 Unless otherwise provided, this Part 2 Agreement shall be governed by the
law of the place where the Project is located.

11.2     SUBCONTRACTS

11.2.1 The Design/Builder, as soon as practicable after execution of this Part 2
Agreement, shall furnish to the Owner in writing the names of the persons or
entities the Design/Builder will engage as contractors for the Project.

11.3     WORK BY OWNER OR
         OWNER'S CONTRACTORS

11.3.1 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 site under conditions of insurance and waiver of
subrogation identical to the provisions of this Part 2 Agreement. If the
Design/Builder claims that delay or additional cost is involved because of such
action by the Owner, the Design/Builder shall assert such claims as provided in
Subparagraph 11.4.

11.3.2. The Design/Builder shall afford the Owner's separate contractors
reasonable opportunity for introduction and storage of their materials and
equipment and performance of their activities and shall connect and coordinate
the Design/Builder's construction and operations with theirs as required by the
Contract Documents.

11.3.3 Costs caused by delays or by improperly timed activities or defective
construction shall be borne by the party responsible therefor.

11.4     CLAIMS FOR DAMAGES

11.4.1 If either party to this Part 2 Agreement suffers injury or damage to
person or property because of an act or omission of the other party, of any of
the other party's employees or agents, or of others for whose acts such party is
legally liable, written notice of such injury or damage, whether or not
insured, shall be given to the other party within a reasonable time not
exceeding 21 days after first observance. The notice shall provide sufficient
detail to enable the other party to investigate the matter. If a claim of
additional cost or time related to this claim is to be asserted, it shall be
filed in writing.

11.5     INDEMNIFICATION

11.5.1 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Design/Builder shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Owner, Owner's consultants, and agents and
employees of any of them from and against claims, damages, losses and expenses,
including but no limited to attorneys' fees, arising out of or resulting from
performance of the Work, 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) including loss of
use resulting therefrom, but only to the extent caused in whole or in part by
negligent acts or omissions of the Design/Builder, anyone directly or
indirectly employed by the Design/Builder or anyone for whose acts the
Design/Builder may be liable, regardless of whether or not such claim, damage,
loss or expense is caused in part by a party indemnified hereunder. Such
obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or reduce other rights or
obligations of indemnity which would otherwise exist as to a party or person
described in this Paragraph 11.5.

11.5.2 In claims against any person or entity indemnified under this Paragraph
11.5 by an employee of the Design/Builder, anyone directly or indirectly
employed by the Design/Builder or anyone for whose acts the Design/Builder may
be liable, the indemnification obligation under this Paragraph 11.5 shall not be
limited by a limitation on amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits
payable by or for the Design/Builder under workers' compensation acts,
disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.

11.6.1 The Owner and Design/Builder, respectively, bind themselves, their
partners, successors, assigns and legal representatives to the other party to
this Part 2 Agreement and to the partners, successors and assigns of such other
party with respect to all covenants of this Part 2 Agreement. Neither the Owner
nor the Design/Builder shall assign this Part 2 Agreement without the written
consent of the other. The Owner may assign this Part 2 Agreement to any
institutional lender providing construction financing, and the Design/Builder
agrees to execute all consents reasonably required to facilitate such an
assignment. If either party makes such an assignment, that party shall
nevertheless remain legally responsible for all obligations under this Part 2
Agreement, unless otherwise agreed by the other party.

11.7     TERMINATION OF
         PROFESSIONAL DESIGN SERVICES

11.7.1 Prior to termination of the services of the Architect or any other design
professional designated in this Part 2 Agreement, the Design/Builder shall
identify to the Owner in writing another architect or other design professional
with respect to whom the Owner has no reasonable objection, who will provide the
services 



                                                                       A191-1996
                                                                  Part 2-Page 11

originally to have been provided by the Architect or other design professional
whose services are being terminated.

11.8     EXTENT OF AGREEMENT

11.8.1 This Part 2 Agreement represents the entire agreement between the Owner
and the Design/Builder and supersedes prior negotiations, representations or
agreements, either written or oral. This Part 2 Agreement may be amended only by
written instrument and signed by both the Owner and the Design/Builder.


                                      ARTICLE 12
                             TERMINATION OF THE AGREEMENT

12.1     TERMINATION BY THE OWNER

12.1.1 This Part 2 Agreement may be terminated by the Owner upon 14 days'
written notice to the Design/Builder in the event that the Project is abandoned.
If such termination occurs, the Owner shall pay the Design/Builder for Work
completed and for proven loss sustained upon materials, equipment, tools, and
construction equipment and machinery, including reasonable profit and applicable
damages.

12.1.2 If the Design/Builder defaults or persistently fails or neglects to carry
out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents or fails to perform the
provisions of this Part 2 Agreement, the Owner may give written notice that the
Owner intends to terminate this Part 2 Agreement. If the Design/Builder fails to
correct the defaults, failure or neglect within seven (7) days after being given
notice, the Owner may then give a second written notice and, after an additional
seven (7) days, the Owner may without prejudice to any other remedy terminate
the employment of the Design/Builder and take possession of the site and of all
materials, equipment, tools and construction equipment and machinery thereon
owned by the Design/Builder and finish the Work by whatever method the Owner may
deem expedient. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum exceeds the expense of
finishing the Work and all damages incurred by the Owner, such excess shall be
paid to the Design/Builder. If the expense of completing the Work and all
damages incurred by the Owner exceeds the unpaid balance, the Design/Builder
shall pay the difference to the Owner. This obligation for payment shall survive
termination of this Part 2 Agreement.

12.2     TERMINATION BY THE DESIGN/BUILDER

12.2.1 If the Owner fails to make payment when due, the Design/Builder may give
written notice of the Design/Builder's intention to terminate this Part 2
Agreement. If the Design/Builder fails to receive payment within seven (7) days
after receipt of such notice by the Owner, the Design/Builder may give a second
written notice and seven (7) days after receipt of such second written notice by
the Owner, may terminate this Part 2 Agreement and recover from the Owner
payment for Work executed and for proven losses sustained upon materials,
equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery, including reasonable
profit and applicable damages. 


                                      ARTICLE 13
