 INTENT, INTERPRETATION
AND CORRELATION 
  
 2.1 Intent of the Contract
Documents. The intent of the Contract Documents is for the Contractor to perform, supply and complete, and Owner hereby engages Contractor to and Contractor hereby agrees to perform, supply and complete, the Work. Contractor’s obligation to
perform, supply, complete and commission the Work shall include, without limitation, providing all necessary architectural design (except for the Owner’s Design); engineering; scheduling, procurement, supervision, construction, and construction
management services; the management and coordination of Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors and Owner’s Vendors with the Work; and the supplying of all necessary labor, materials, equipment and related work and services,
including all things reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents as being necessary to fully complete the Work and obtain the intended results described in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, and the
Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, all in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, the requirements of the Original Project Schedule, the Expansion Project Schedule,
the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price requirements set forth in Article 3 below and Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price requirements set forth in Article 3 below). Contractor shall be solely responsible for the
preparation of the Drawings and Specifications (other than those to be prepared by Owner’s Consultants with respect to Owner’s Design); for the means, methods, techniques and sequences of construction; and for the finished construction
fully complying with the Project requirements established pursuant to the Contract Documents and with applicable Laws. Contractor recognizes that Owner is not retaining its own architect or engineer on the Project and Contractor acknowledges that it
is solely responsible for Project Site analysis and for the design (except for the Owner’s Design) and construction of the Work, including coordinating the Owner’s Design with the Architect/Engineer’s design, and that Owner is relying
upon Contractor for such services. Contractor accepts the relationship of trust and confidence thus imposed and shall efficiently design, administer, construct and supervise the Work in a professional manner, timely delivering the completed Original
Project and completed Expansion Project to Owner with all applicable mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire safety and other building systems fully operational. The enumeration of particular items in the Specifications and/or Drawings and/or other
Contract Documents shall not be 

  

 13 








 
construed to exclude other items reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents or being necessary to fully complete the Work. The Contract Documents are
complementary, and what is required by or reasonably inferable from any one of the Contract Documents (including either a Drawing or Specification) as being necessary to produce the intended results shall be binding and required as a part of the
Work as if required by all Contract Documents. Notwithstanding that Exhibit F attached hereto sets forth Contractor’s estimated breakdown of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price into line items and categories and that Contractor’s acceptance of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price may have been based on such estimates, Contractor agrees that the scope of
the Work to be performed by Contractor shall be determined by the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and the other Contract Documents.
Contractor further agrees that in the event of any discrepancy between (a) the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and the other Contract
Documents (other than Exhibit F) and (b) Exhibit F, the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable) and the other
Contract Documents (other than Exhibit F) shall control, and no adjustment to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Contract Time shall be made as a result thereof. 
  
 2.2 Order of Precedence. Subject to the provisions of
Section 2.3 and the last two sentences of Section 2.1 hereof, in the event of any conflicts or inconsistencies which cannot be resolved by reading the Contract Documents as a whole, the provisions of the Contract Documents shall be
controlling in accordance with the following order of precedence: 
  
 2.2.1 this Agreement; 
  
 2.2.2 the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable); 
  
 2.2.3 the Drawings; 
  
 2.2.4 Specifications; and 
  
 2.2.5 the other Contract Documents. 
  
 2.3 Contractor’s Compliance with Contract Documents. Contractor
hereby agrees and accepts that Contractor has a duty to refer all questions with respect to any doubts or concerns over the intent or appropriate interpretation of the Contract Documents to Owner for Owner’s decision. Contractor agrees, accepts
and assumes that Owner’s decision will require implementation of the most stringent requirements among any conflicting 

  

 14 








 
provisions of the Contract Documents as being part of the Work. Contractor agrees to be bound by all decisions by Owner to implement the most stringent of
any conflicting requirements within the Contract Documents. Any failure by Contractor to seek such clarifications shall in no way limit Owner’s ability to require such implementation, including replacement by Contractor of installed Work at a
later date (as a Cost of the Work, subject to the provisions of Section 3.3, and without increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable)), to achieve compliance with
the standard required pursuant to this Section 2.3. 
  
 2.3.1 The failure of Owner to insist in any one or more instances upon a strict compliance with any provision of this Contract, or to exercise any option herein conferred, shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment of Owner’s right thereafter to require compliance with such provision of this Contract, or as being a waiver of Owner’s right thereafter to exercise such option, and such provision or option will remain in full force and
effect. 
  
 2.3.2 If there is any
inconsistency in the Drawings or any conflict between the Drawings and Specifications, Contractor shall provide the better quality or greater quantity of Work or materials, as applicable, unless Owner directs otherwise in writing. 
  
 2.3.3 Contractor shall be responsible for dividing
the Work among the appropriate qualified Subcontractors and Vendors. No claim will be entertained by Owner based upon the organization or arrangement of the Specifications and/or the Drawings into areas, sections, subsections or trade disciplines.

  
 2.3.4 Detail drawings shall take
precedence over scale drawings, and figured dimensions on the Drawings shall govern the setting out of the Work. 
  
 2.3.5 Unless the Specifications expressly state otherwise, references to documents and standards of professional organizations
shall mean the latest editions published prior to the Effective Date. 
  
 2.3.6 Technical words, abbreviations and acronyms in the Contract Documents not defined therein shall be used and interpreted in accordance with customary usage in the construction industry. 
  
 2.3.7 Whenever consent, permission or approval is
required from any party pursuant to the provisions of the Contract Documents, such consent, permission or approval shall, unless expressly provided otherwise in this Agreement, be given or obtained, as applicable, in writing and shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. 
  
 2.4 Joint and Several
Liability. Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau shall be jointly and severally liable to Owner for the fulfillment by Contractor of the terms of this Agreement. All references to Contractor in the Contract Documents shall be deemed to include
references to Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau jointly and severally. Each of 

  

 15 








 
Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau shall be fully responsible for the proper performance of the obligations of Contractor under the Contract Documents.
Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau shall be liable to Owner and the Owner Indemnities on a joint and several basis for any and all acts or omissions of Contractor, whether under this Agreement or pursuant to the Contract Documents. The composition
of the joint venture formed by Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau, as well as the terms and conditions of the written joint venture agreement among such parties, shall be subject to Owner’s prior written consent and shall not be materially
altered without Owner’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and any direct or indirect transfers of interests in the joint venture by or among any of such parties shall be subject to Owner’s
prior written consent. Contractor’s Representative shall have the authority to bind the joint venture constituting Contractor and each of its members. The Contractor’s Representative is authorized to act on behalf of Contractor with regard
to the Work and the Contract Documents and his decisions will be binding upon Contractor. Owner may rely on, and Contractor shall be bound by, any notice or correspondence delivered by Contractor’s Representative in connection with the Contract
Documents.

 3.1.9 Subcontractor Bids. As Drawings and
Specifications are deemed sufficient to call for tenders for a particular portion of the Work, Contractor shall propose and obtain bona fide bids from a minimum of three Subcontractors and/or Vendors for such portion of the Work and, in accordance
with Section 9.2 hereof, make a recommendation to Owner in writing as to which bid Owner should select. 
  
 3.1.9.1 If the amount of the bid selected by Owner exceeds the amount budgeted in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or
the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for that item or portion of the Work and the increase in cost is due to the failure of the Drawings and Specifications to substantially conform to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price Premises and Assumptions or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable), then to the extent that the applicable Drawings and Specifications were not prepared by any of Owner’s Consultants, there
shall be no adjustment to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) and, at Owner’s option, (a) Contractor shall cause Architect/Engineer to rework 

  

 20 








 
the Drawings and Specifications to cause the Work depicted therein to conform to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or
the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable); or (b) Contractor shall allocate a portion of the Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as
applicable) to such increased cost pursuant to Section 3.1.8; or (c) Owner may require Contractor to cause some revisions to be made to such Drawings and Specifications to bring down the cost while allocating a portion of the
Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable) to any remaining increased cost. 
  
 3.1.9.2 If the amount of the bid selected by Owner exceeds the amount budgeted in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or
the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for that item or portion of the Work and the increase in cost is due to the failure of the Drawings and Specifications to substantially conform to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price Premises and Assumptions or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable), then to the extent any of the applicable Drawings and Specifications were prepared by any of Owner’s Consultants, Owner
shall, at its option, (a) increase the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) by the amount of such increase in cost; or (b) cause such Owner’s Consultant(s) to
rework such Drawings and Specifications to cause the Work depicted therein to conform to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as
applicable); or (c) allocate a portion of the Original Project Owner Contingency or the Expansion Owner Contingency (as applicable) to such increased cost pursuant to Section 3.1.7; or (d) do any combination of the foregoing as
necessary to cover such increase in cost. 
  
 3.1.9.3 If the amount of the bid recommended by Contractor and accepted by Owner exceeds the amount allocated or budgeted in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as
applicable) for that item or portion of the Work, and the Drawings and Specifications substantially conform to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and
Assumptions (as applicable), then Contractor shall perform such Work and such increase in costs shall be solely Contractor’s responsibility, except that Contractor shall be entitled to use a portion of the Original Project Construction
Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable) to cover such cost increase to the extent permitted under Section 3.1.8 hereof (provided, however, if no funds remain in the Original Project Construction
Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable), Contractor shall still be responsible for the increased cost of the Work), and Contractor shall not be entitled to, and will not seek, any increase in the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) with regard thereto. 
  

 21 








 3.1.9.4 Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.1.9.1 through
3.1.9.3 above, if Contractor failed to comply with its obligations under Section 7.3 of this Agreement and, as a result, the amount of the bid selected by Owner exceeds the amount allocated or budgeted in the Original Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for that item or portion of the Work, Contractor shall perform such Work and such increase in costs shall be solely Contractor’s responsibility, except
that Contractor may use a portion of the Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable) to cover such increased costs to the extent permitted under Section 3.1.8 hereof
(provided, however, if no funds remain in the Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable), Contractor shall still be responsible for the increased costs of such Work), and Contractor
shall not be entitled to, and will not seek, any increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) with regard thereto. 
  
 3.1.9.5 If the amount of the bid selected by Owner
plus the additional and customary cost to complete the bid Work (if such additional and customary amount is so required as mutually determined between Owner and Contractor) is less than the amount budgeted in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for that item or portion of the Work, then the savings shall remain within the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as
applicable) and be made available to pay for the Cost of the Work, but shall not be allocated to the Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable) until Original Project Substantial
Completion or the Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) of the applicable portion of the Work. 
  
 3.1.9.6 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1.9, if Owner elects in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement to have a party other than the Contractor perform a portion of the Work, or otherwise eliminates or reduces the scope of a portion of the Work to be performed by the Contractor, the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the
Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable)e shall be reduced in accordance with Article 18. 
  
 3.2 Cost of the Work. “Cost of the Work” means those elements of costs described in this Section 3.2 up to the
Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) (subject to change only as provided in this Agreement) which are chargeable to Owner and payable to Contractor when reasonably, actually and
necessarily incurred by the Contractor during or in connection with performance of the Work, without mark-up or add on of any kind by or at the request of Contractor. Such costs shall be actual costs paid or to be paid by Contractor during the
applicable billing period and agreed upon by Owner, less all discounts, rebates and salvages taken by Contractor. All amounts paid or payable as Costs of the Work shall be subject to verification by audit pursuant to Article 19 of this
Agreement. Contractor covenants and 

  

 22 








 
agrees to use reasonable efforts to achieve the lowest price or cost available and consistent with the Contract Documents, for all Cost of the Work items.
Upon Original Project Substantial Completion or the Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) of the Original Project Work and the Expansion Project Work (as applicable), all savings on any and all components of the Cost of the Work,
including, but not limited to, all savings on labor costs and other general conditions costs, as well as any savings resulting from early delivery of the completed Project, shall be allocated to and included within the Original Project Construction
Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable). Upon Original Project Final Payment, any unused amounts in the Original Project Owner’s Contingency and sixty percent (60%) of any unused amounts in the
Original Project Construction Contingency shall revert to the Owner, and forty percent (40%) of any unused amounts in the Original Project Construction Contingency shall be paid to Contractor as a “Original Project Cost Control
Incentive” at the time of payment by the Owner of the Original Project Final Payment; provided, however, that if (a) Original Project Substantial Completion is achieved at least fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the Guaranteed Date
of Original Project Substantial Completion, and (b) Contractor provides Owner with a written notice accurately confirming to Owner the date of Original Project Substantial Completion of the Original Project Work not less than one hundred
fifty-two (152) calendar days prior to such date, then upon Original Project Final Payment a portion of the One Million Two Hundred Eighty-Two Thousand Fifty-One United States Dollars (US$1,282,051) component of the Original Project
Construction Contingency representing the cost of anticipated project preliminaries associated with the twenty-sixth month of the Work (such US$1,282,051 component, the “Original Project Early Completion Component”) shall be paid to
Contractor as part of the “Original Project Cost Control Incentive”, which portion shall be calculated as follows: (i) if Original Project Substantial Completion of the entire Original Project Work is achieved between fifteen
(15) and thirty (30) calendar days prior to the Guaranteed Date of Original Project Substantial Completion, then a percentage of the Original Project Early Completion Component shall be so paid to Contractor equal to (A) the number of
calendar days by which Original Project Substantial Completion of the entire Original Project Work is achieved prior to the Guaranteed Date of Original Project Substantial Completion, divided by (B) thirty (30) for example, if Original
Project Substantial Completion of the entire Original Project Work is achieved twenty-four (24) calendar days prior to the Guaranteed Date of Original Project Substantial Completion, then Contractor would be paid eighty percent (80%) (24 /
30 = 80%) of the Original Project Early Completion Component; and (ii) if Original Project Substantial Completion of the entire Work is achieved more than thirty (30) calendar days prior to the Guaranteed Date of Original Project
Substantial Completion, then one hundred percent (100%) of the Original Project Early Completion Component shall be so paid to Contractor. In no event shall the total payment to Contractor of any unused amounts in the Original Project
Construction Contingency, excluding any payment to Contractor of any portion of the Original Project Early Completion Component, exceed the sum of Four Million United States Dollars (US$4,000,000). Upon Expansion Project Final Payment, any unused
amounts in the Expansion Project Owner’s Contingency and sixty percent (60%) of any unused amounts in the Expansion Project Construction Contingency shall revert to the Owner, and forty percent 

  

 23 








 
(40%) of any unused amounts in the Expansion Project Construction Contingency shall be paid to Contractor as an “Expansion Project Cost Control
Incentive” at the time of payment by the Owner of the Expansion Project Final Payment. In no event shall the total payment to Contractor of any unused amounts in the Expansion Project Construction Contingency exceed the sum of Two Million Two
Hundred Fifty Thousand United States Dollars (US$2,250,000). Costs of the Work shall be strictly limited to and include only the following items, unless otherwise agreed by the Owner in writing: 
  
 3.2.1 Contractor’s Salaried Employees. Direct
cost of amounts actually paid by Contractor for the salaries paid to Contractor’s employees (excluding craft labor) while and only to the extent they are performing Work at the Site, except to the extent approved otherwise by Owner, and except

and payroll burden and customary employee benefits (including vacation) to the extent stated in this Section 3.2.1, pro-rated for the time they are performing Work. Such employee benefits shall include the Chinese New Year bonus, if
applicable, and any reasonable and customary costs considered a normal part of the employee’s salary and not a bonus (other than the Chinese New Year bonus). Contractor shall submit to Owner all documentation necessary to support the referenced

Section 3.2 of this Agreement, including any 

  

 41 








 
Costs of the Work attributable to Change Orders or Construction Change Directives. To the extent requested by Owner, this shall include providing audit
access to Contractor’s books and records to the extent described in Article 19 of this Agreement. All blanks and columns in the Application for Progress Payment must be completed. With respect to all costs associated with deposits,
advance payments or materials stored off-Site, Contractor must comply with the provisions of Sections 5.11 and 5.13 of this Agreement. 
  
 5.2.3 Additional Costs For Change Orders and Claims. Except for Construction Change Directives or pursuant to an Owner signed
Change Order, Owner shall not have any obligation to pay any amounts to Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor for work outside the scope of Contractor’s Work. 
  
 5.2.4 Lien Waivers. Each Application for Progress Payment shall include signed (along with company
seal or chop, at Contractor’s option) Waiver and Release of Lien Upon Progress Payment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H from Contractor with regard to Work that is covered on the Application for Progress Payment.
Owner’s receipt of such executed waiver shall be a condition precedent to Owner’s obligation to pay any amounts pertaining thereto. In addition, Owner may at any time direct Contractor to submit a certificate that all payrolls, invoices
for material and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work and associated with an Application For Progress Payment have been paid. 
  
 5.2.5 Contractor Statements. Each Application for Progress Payment (and for Original Project Final Payment and Expansion Project
Final Payment) shall include a “Contractor’s Certificate,” in form and substance identical to Exhibit I attached to this Agreement, signed by Contractor. Further, unless otherwise stated by Contractor in the
Contractor’s Certificate and accepted by Owner, the issuance of an Application for Payment by Contractor will constitute a representation by Contractor to Owner that (a) the Work has progressed in accordance with the Original Project
Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable), (b) the quality of the Work performed up to the date of such Application for Payment is in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Contract Documents, (c) Contractor is not
in breach of any of the provisions of the Contract Documents, and (d) Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified. The payment by Owner of any amount requested in an Application for Progress Payment shall not be deemed to
represent in any way that (i) Owner has inspected the quality or quantity of the Work, (ii) Owner has reviewed the construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures used by Contractor, or (iii) Owner has made any
examination to ascertain how Contractor has used the progress payments previously made to it. 
  
 5.3 Time of Payments. Subject to the terms of the Contract Documents, Owner shall make to Contractor progress payments properly due and undisputed based on an approved Application for Progress Payment within
twenty-five (25) calendar days after receipt of such fully completed Applications for Progress Payment which are submitted along with all requirements under Section 5.2 above, and substantiated in accordance with 

  

 42 








 
Section 5.2.2 above, and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to and approved by Owner and Owner’s Lenders, less any amounts that may be
retained or withheld pursuant to the Contract Documents. Contractor recognizes that (i) any payment to it by the Owner is conditional upon the approval by Owner’s Lenders of the related Application for Progress Payment, and that
(ii) Owner’s Lenders are entitled to request that the Contractor deliver further documents or substantiation of costs before approving any Application for Progress Payment. Owner shall promptly inform Contractor if Owner becomes aware that
any of Owner’s Lenders will not be funding all or any portion of a particular Application for Progress Payment, notwithstanding that Owner shall have approved such Application for Progress Payment. 
  
 5.4 Owner’s Right To Withhold. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, and in addition to Retention, Owner may, upon written notice to Contractor, together with a written explanation of all such withholding and the calculation of the amounts withheld, withhold from any payments otherwise due to the
Contractor (including Final Payment), up to one hundred percent (100%) of the amount which, in Owner’s reasonable opinion, is necessary to protect Owner against or compensate Owner for any and all damages, costs, lawsuits claims,
overpayments, expenses and losses, including, but not limited to, for the cure of any breach, default or failure to perform, or to assure the payment of claims of third persons, in each case attributable to any of the items or circumstances listed
below in this Section 5.4 (such items or circumstances, the “Bases for Withholding”). Owner, at its option, may apply such sums in such manner as Owner may in good faith deem necessary or proper to secure protection from
or to satisfy such claims, and Owner shall not be deemed in default by reason of withholding payment under this Agreement in good faith. Contractor shall not be entitled to receive payment with respect to any portion of an Application for Progress
Payment that is inaccurate or incomplete or that contains any misrepresentation. If Owner becomes aware of any problems developing with respect to the Contractor or the Work which could form the basis for withholding, Owner shall notify Contractor
thereof (provided, however, that any failure by Owner to so notify Contractor shall in no way limit Owner’s right to withhold funds as provided in this Section 5.4). The rights and remedies of Owner under this
Section 5.4 shall be non-exclusive and shall be in addition to all other remedies available to Owner under this Agreement or at law, in equity or otherwise. The Bases for Withholding shall be limited to the following: 
  
 5.4.1 The overall percentage of Original Project Work
or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) satisfactorily completed by Contractor and each relevant Subcontractor and/or Vendor (determined by comparing the amount of Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) satisfactorily
completed to the total amount of Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) to be completed), is less than the overall percentage of payments determined by comparing (i) the sum of (a) all amounts previously paid by
Owner with respect to the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable); and (b) the pending invoice to be paid, to (ii) the total amount of the Cost of Work for the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as
applicable) within the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project 

  

 43 








 
Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable); provided, however, that Owner shall not be entitled to withhold on such basis to the extent that Contractor is
otherwise entitled to receive the applicable payment from amounts available in the Original Project Construction Contingency or Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable). 
  
 5.4.2 Contractor’s failure to perform any
Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) and its other obligations hereunder in accordance with the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, failing to comply with any applicable Laws, failure to submit or carry out
Recovery Plans in accordance with Section 11.8 of this Agreement, and/or failure to maintain insurance in compliance with the requirements of this Agreement; provided, however, that Owner shall not be entitled to withhold on such basis
to the extent that Contractor is otherwise entitled to receive the applicable payment from amounts available in the Original Project Construction Contingency or Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as applicable). 
  
 5.4.3 Defective Work not remedied in a timely manner
after receipt of notice from Owner during the course of the Work, during the Original Project Defects Liability Period or during the Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable). If any Work inspected by Owner is not to Owner’s
reasonable satisfaction in accordance with the Contract Documents, a condition of any additional payments to Contractor shall be the correction of any such unsatisfactory Work to Owner’s reasonable satisfaction in accordance with the Contract
Documents. 
  
 5.4.4 Failure by Contractor
to make timely or properly due payments to Subcontractors or Vendors in the amounts for which Contractor has received payments from Owner. 
  
 5.4.5 Contractor’s failure to submit lien waivers as required pursuant to Section 5.2.4 above. 
  
 5.4.6 The exercising by Contractor or any
Subcontractor or Vendor of mechanic’s lien rights or other claims relating to the Work against Owner, the premises of Owner, the Project and/or the Site, or the making of any claim against the same by any other party arising out of or relating
to the Work or acts or omissions of Contractor, any Subcontractor or any other person for whose acts Contractor is responsible or liable at law or under the Contract Documents, except for those lien rights exercised as a result of Owner’s
failure to make payment when due to Contractor under the Contract. 
  
 5.4.7 Contractor’s failure to expeditiously remove or release mechanic’s or similar liens made against the premises of Owner and/or the Site, except for those liens made as a result of Owner’s
failure to make payment when due to Contractor under the Contract. 
  

 44 








 5.4.8 Any failure by the Contractor to provide timely access to the
Contractor’s books and records for audit purposes to the extent described in Article 19 of this Agreement. 
  
 5.4.9 Any failure by Contractor to provide the Schedule Updates as required by Article 11 of this Agreement.

  
 5.4.10 Any failure by Contractor to
satisfy any of its obligations under this Agreement to provide certificates or other information requested by Owner’s Lenders. 
  
 5.4.11 Any failure by Contractor to satisfy its obligations under Section 3.1.5 of this Agreement. 
  
 5.4.12 Regarding any particular portion of the
Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) as shown on the Original Project Schedule of Approved Values or Expansion Project Schedule of Values, respectively, any amount requested is attributable to a portion of the Work not
actually completed; provided, however, that Owner shall not be entitled to withhold on such basis to the extent that the applicable payment to be made to Contractor is in respect of a deposit or advance payment to be made by Contractor to a
Subcontractor or Vendor and Contractor is otherwise entitled to receive such payment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 5.4.13 Owner’s or Owner’s Lenders’ good faith belief based on reasonable evidence that any Work will not be
completed within the applicable Contract Time, provided that Contractor has been notified of such belief and fails to provide within seven (7) days either satisfactory evidence to the contrary or an acceptable Recovery Plan pursuant to
Section 11.8. 
  
 5.4.14
Damage to property or Work or injury to persons attributable to the acts or omissions of Contractor, any Subcontractor or any person for whose acts or omissions Contractor is responsible or liable at law or under the Contract Documents. 

 
 5.4.15 Deviations from the Contract Documents
other than those approved or permitted in accordance with the Agreement without an applicable Change Order or Construction Change Directive. 
  
 5.4.16 Any material breach or default or failure to perform by Contractor under the Contract Documents, including, but not limited
to, failure to maintain any required insurance, or any material inaccuracy in any of Contractor’s representations or warranties. 
  
 5.4.17 A determination by Owner to nullify in whole or in part a prior approval of an Application for Progress Payment and/or prior
payment made, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations which otherwise would allow Owner to withhold pursuant to this Section 5.4 or elsewhere in the Contract Documents. 
  

 45 








 5.4.18 Contractor’s failure to obtain, comply with and keep valid and in full
force, and deliver copies to Owner of, all approvals, permits, certifications, consents and licenses of governmental authorities or other parties having jurisdiction over the Site, the Project or the Work or contractual rights to approve or inspect
any of the foregoing which are necessary at the stage of construction and/or otherwise existing and required to be complied with or satisfied when such disbursement to Contractor is to be made to enable Original Project Final Completion or Expansion
Project Final Completion on or before the applicable Contract Time. 
  
 5.4.19 Except as contemplated by the Contract Documents or otherwise approved by Owner, encroachments by any part of the Work being constructed on property located outside the boundaries of the Site.

  
 5.4.20 An order or statement shall
have been made by or received from any governmental, administrative or regulatory authority or agency stating that the whole or any part of the Work, and/or any proposed change thereto, for which Contractor or any Subcontractor is responsible or
which relates to Contractor’s or any Subcontractor’s activities is in violation of any Laws, unless such order or statement has been timely corrected to the satisfaction of both the applicable governmental agency and Owner and evidence of
such timely correction shall have been provided to Owner in form and substance satisfactory to Owner. 
  
 5.4.21 Contractor’s failure to comply with the requirements of Section 5.13 of this Agreement relating to off-Site
materials. 
  
 5.5 Joint Payee Checks. Owner shall have the
right at any time and from time to time upon notice to Contractor, to issue one or more checks for portions of a progress payment, Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment which are payable jointly to Contractor and its
Subcontractors or Vendors of any tier or the parties owed. This right includes, but is not limited to, issuing jointly payable checks in circumstances where a dispute exists between Owner and Contractor with respect to the value of any partially or
fully completed Work, including disputed Change Proposal Requests and Claims, and circumstances where Contractor has failed to provide lien waiver documents as required herein. Any such checks shall be forwarded to Contractor for further handling.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Contractor fails, neglects, or refuses to pay for labor or services performed or materials or equipment supplied in connection with the Work for which Contractor has been paid by Owner, Owner
shall have the right (but not the obligation), after giving Contractor written notice thereof, and provided that Contractor fails within fifteen (15) days after such notice to cure such situation or to put forward satisfactory reasons to
justify such non-payment, to make payments directly for any and all such labor, materials, or equipment and to deduct the amount of such payment from any payments otherwise due to Contractor and from the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or
Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). 
  

 46 








 5.6 Retention. 
  
 5.6.1 From each Progress Payment made by Owner on an approved Application for Progress Payment, Owner
shall retain and withhold “Retention” in an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the approved amounts to be paid with respect to the Work performed directly by Contractor (as distinguished from Work performed by Subcontractors,
Vendors or any other third party). Upon Original Project Substantial Completion, fifty percent (50%) of the Retention withheld with respect to the Original Project Work shall be released on the next regularly scheduled payment date. Subject to
Section 5.6.2, all remaining Retention withheld with respect to the Original Project Work shall be released on the first (1st) anniversary of the date of Original Project Substantial Completion. Upon Expansion Project Substantial Completion, fifty percent (50%) of the Retention withheld with respect to the Expansion Project Work shall be
released on the next regularly scheduled payment date. Subject to Section 5.6.2, all remaining Retention withheld with respect to the Expansion Project Work shall be released on the first (1st) anniversary of the date of Expansion Project Substantial Completion. 
  
 5.6.2 With respect to any portions of the Work for which the Original Project Defects Liability
Period or the Expansion Project Defects Liability Period has been extended pursuant to Section 10.2 of this Agreement, Owner shall retain and withhold from the Retention an amount (the “Defects Liability Retainage”) equal to
three times the Owner’s reasonable estimate of the cost to correct, repair or replace such portions of the Work; thereafter, at the expiration of the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as
extended) for such Work, the Defects Liability Retainage shall be either (i) retained by Owner in the event the Owner exercised its right to correct such Work in accordance with Section 10.7 hereof prior to the expiration of the Original
Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as extended)or (ii) released to Contractor. 
  
 5.6.3 Except as may otherwise be agreed to by Owner pursuant to Section 9.3, Contractor shall retain and withhold from
payments due to Subcontractors and Vendors a retention as follows: (i) in the case of Work performed by Subcontractors providing labor and materials, ten percent (10%) on the approved amounts to be paid, provided that after retaining an
aggregate amount equal to five percent (5%) of the total contract price of the applicable subcontract or purchase order, Contractor is not required to withhold further retention with respect to such Work; (ii) in the case of Work performed
by Subcontractors providing only labor, an amount equal to two and one-half percent (2-1/2%) on the approved amounts to be paid; and (iii) in the case of materials or equipment to be supplied by Vendors, ten percent (10%) on the approved
amounts to be paid, provided that Owner in its sole discretion may agree to reduce such amount in the case of certain Vendors. Except as may otherwise be agreed to by Owner pursuant to Section 9.3, Contractor shall not request in any
Application for Progress Payment, and Owner shall have no obligation to include in any Progress Payment made pursuant thereto, any retention amounts that Contractor is required to withhold pursuant to the foregoing, until such time as the retention
is required to 

  

 47 








 
be released to the Subcontractor or Vendor in accordance with the applicable approved subcontract or purchase order. For purposes of clarity, as used in this
Section 5.6.3, “approved amounts to be paid” means the approved amounts payable to the applicable Subcontractor or Vendor without subtraction of the required retention. 
  
 5.7 Substantial Completion Payments. 
  
 5.7.1 Payment by Owner of the first half of the
Retention withheld with respect to Original Project Work upon Original Project Substantial Completion shall be in consideration of Contractor’s unconditional covenant and agreement to complete all final Original Project Punch List Items. At
Owner’s option, upon Original Project Substantial Completion, Owner may elect to release any Retention withheld with respect to Original Project Work then being held by Owner, less a sum equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the costs
reasonably estimated by Owner to be necessary to complete any such Original Project Punch List Items, which sum shall be retained by Owner until such Original Project Punch List Items are completed. Thereafter, Owner shall pay to the Contractor
monthly the amounts retained for such Original Project Punch List Items to the extent that each Original Project Punch List Item is satisfactorily completed by Contractor and accepted by Owner. It shall be a condition precedent to payment to
Contractor of the first half of the Retention withheld with respect to Original Project Work related to Original Project Substantial Completion that Contractor obtain and deliver to Owner all certificates of occupancy (or any other equivalent
permits required for occupancy and use) as may be required by Owner. Contractor shall obtain all such certificates of occupancy and other permits as soon as practicable after they are first available to be obtained (unless due to the fault of Owner
such certificates are not obtainable). 
  
 5.7.2 Payment by Owner of the first half of the Retention withheld with respect to Expansion Project Work upon Expansion Project Substantial Completion shall be in consideration of Contractor’s unconditional covenant and
agreement to complete all final Expansion Project Punch List Items. At Owner’s option, upon Expansion Project Substantial Completion, Owner may elect to release any Retention withheld with respect to Expansion Project Work then being held by
Owner, less a sum equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the costs reasonably estimated by Owner to be necessary to complete any such Expansion Project Punch List Items, which sum shall be retained by Owner until such Expansion Project Punch
List Items are completed. Thereafter, Owner shall pay to the Contractor monthly the amounts retained for such Expansion Project Punch List Items to the extent that each Expansion Project Punch List Item is satisfactorily completed by Contractor and
accepted by Owner. It shall be a condition precedent to payment to Contractor of the first half of the Retention withheld with respect to Expansion Project Work related to Expansion Project Substantial Completion that Contractor obtain and deliver
to Owner all certificates of occupancy (or any other equivalent permits required for occupancy and use) as may be required by Owner. Contractor shall obtain all such certificates of occupancy and other permits as soon as practicable after they are
first available to be obtained (unless due to the fault of Owner such certificates are not obtainable). 
  

 48 








 5.8 Final Payment. Contractor’s “Applications For Final Payment” shall be
submitted in accordance with the following: 
  
 5.8.1 “Original Project Final Payment” means the payment to Contractor of all amounts due and owing and remaining to be paid to Contractor under the Contract Documents with respect to Original Project Work, including
any Retention, based on Contractor’s Application for Original Project Final Payment and Owner’s Original Project Certificate of Final Completion. Original Project Final Payment shall not be due, and Contractor’s Application for
Original Project Final Payment shall not be considered, until (i) the Contractor completes all of the Original Project Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, including the requirements set forth in this Section 5.8.1 and
the prerequisites for a Original Project Certificate of Final Completion set forth in Section 12.2 of this Agreement, and (ii) the first (1st) anniversary of the date of Original Project Substantial Completion has occurred. 
  
 5.8.2 “Expansion Project Final Payment” means the payment to Contractor of all amounts due and owing and remaining
to be paid to Contractor under the Contract Documents with respect to Expansion Project Work, including any Retention, based on Contractor’s Application for Expansion Project Final Payment and Owner’s Certificate of Expansion Project Final
Completion. Expansion Project Final Payment shall not be due, and Contractor’s Application for Expansion Project Final Payment shall not be considered, until (i) the Contractor completes all of the Expansion Project Work in accordance with
the Contract Documents, including the requirements set forth in this Section 5.8.2 and the prerequisites for a Certificate of Expansion Project Final Completion set forth in Section 12.2 of this Agreement, and (ii) the
first (1st) anniversary of the date of Expansion Project Substantial Completion has occurred. 
  
 5.8.3 It shall be a condition to each of Original
Project Final Payment and Expansion Project Final Payment that Contractor deliver to Owner the following: 
  
 5.8.3.1 A certificate that all payrolls (including all union dues, health, welfare, pension plan and other labor associated
contributions), invoices for all labor, materials and equipment and all other indebtedness connected with the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) for which Owner or its property might in any way be responsible, and for
which Owner has paid the Contractor, have been paid or otherwise satisfied. 
  
 5.8.3.2 Final Waivers in a form acceptable to Owner from Contractor and all Subcontractors and Vendors and all other persons providing any services, labor, materials or equipment in relation to the Original
Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable), including certified copies of waivers of all lien rights exercised during the course of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) and not previously provided to Owner,
and no lien rights have been exercised, or other claims or encumbrances have been filed or are outstanding, with respect to the whole or any part of or 

  

 49 








 
interest in either the Site or the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable). 
  
 5.8.3.3 A certificate that Contractor has timely paid
all applicable Taxes due and payable prior to Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Completion (as applicable) and arising out of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) in a form satisfactory to
Owner. 
  
 5.8.3.4 An accounting of the
credits due to Owner for the value of any excess items paid for by Owner and a complete detailed statement of the Cost of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) showing, without limitation, all expenditures for which tax
credits or deductions may be allowed (if applicable). 
  
 5.8.3.5 Any documents, instruments, releases, certificates and indemnitees reasonably required and that Contractor is able to obtain using its best efforts in order to establish that no mechanics or materialmen’s lien rights
have been exercised, that all Lender Liens are of first priority (including prior to any other liens or lien rights) as it relates to Contractor’s obligations under the Contract, and that there are no encroachments or violations of any
covenants, conditions or restrictions affecting the Site. 
  
 5.8.3.6 If required by Owner or Owner’s Lenders, 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, the Original Project Work or the Expansion Project Work which may then or in the future affect Owner, Owner’s property, the Original Project, the Expansion Project or the Site, and to the extent and in such form as
may reasonably be designated by Owner or Owner’s Lenders. If a Subcontractor or Vendor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by Owner, Contractor shall within such time as set forth in Section 7.19 hereof furnish a bond
satisfactory to Owner to indemnify Owner against such lien and cause it to be paid and released; if such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, Contractor shall immediately refund to Owner and indemnify Owner against all money that Owner
may be compelled to pay in releasing Owner, Owner’s property, the Original Project, the Expansion Project or the Site from such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. 
  
 5.8.3.7 Such other certificates and instruments
relating to the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) as Owner’s Lenders may reasonably require. 
  
 5.8.4 Owner will have no obligation to make either of the Original Project Final Payment or the Expansion Project Final Payment as
long as any unresolved mechanic’s liens or claims exist relating to Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project and/or the Expansion Project, regardless of whether such liens are exercised or claims are made by Contractor, any
Subcontractor or Vendor or any other party relating to the Work; 

  

 50 








 
unless and until Contractor releases or causes the release of Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project or the Expansion Project, as
applicable, from such liens and claims or, as directed by Owner, Contractor provides Owner and Owner’s Lenders with indemnitees acceptable to Owner and Owner’s Lenders and/or bonds around any mechanic’s lien or claim in a manner
acceptable to Owner and Owner’s Lenders, all in accordance with Section 7.19 hereof. 
  
 5.8.5 The Applications For Final Payment shall include a statement of all unresolved Claims (and for which payment has been and/or
shall be withheld by Owner). Contractor shall separately list by Claim number the specific dollar amounts which have previously been submitted as Claims by Contractor in good faith and in full compliance by Contractor with this Agreement.

  
 5.8.6 Except for such unresolved
Claims stated in specific dollar amounts which have been previously filed by Contractor in good faith and in full compliance with this Agreement, the submittal by Contractor of an Application For Final Payment shall constitute a final and
irrevocable release and waiver by Contractor of any and all other Claims and causes of action for additional costs allowable under the Contract Documents with respect to Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable). This release
and waiver shall include, without limitation, any and all claims for amounts in addition to the specific dollar amounts relating to the unresolved Claims so identified by Contractor, and all other Claims or potential claims of Subcontractors and
Vendors arising out of this Contract, whether or not any such Claims or potential Claims arise in contract or in tort or were known or unknown at the time of submittal of an Application For Final Payment. Contractor shall evidence such release and
waiver by delivering a fully executed release and waiver with respect to the Original Project Work and the Expansion Project Work, as applicable, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J. 
  
 5.8.7 Upon Owner’s concurrence that all
conditions listed in Section 12.2 of this Agreement with respect to the Original Project Work or the Expansion Project Work have been fulfilled and that the balance set forth in the relevant Application For Final Payment is due and
payable, and subject to the approval of Owner’s Lenders, Owner shall make the Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment (as applicable) to Contractor in accordance with this Agreement. 
  
 5.8.8 Original Project Final Payment or Expansion
Project Final Payment (as applicable) shall not relieve Contractor of any warranty obligations (including, but not limited to, warranty obligations contained in the Contract Documents or at law). 
  
 5.9 Disputed Payments. When the reason(s) for withholding a particular
payment are removed to Owner’s reasonable satisfaction, Owner will pay such previously withheld amounts for such matters (less amounts properly withheld or retained) with the next regularly scheduled payment. In the event of a dispute with
respect to amounts payable under an Application for Progress Payment, the Original Project Final Payment or the 

  

 51 








 
Expansion Project Final Payment, Owner shall pay all undisputed amounts. If Contractor disputes any determination by Owner with regard to any Application for
Progress Payment or any withheld amounts, Contractor shall nevertheless expeditiously continue to execute the Work. Any amounts in dispute and withheld by Owner shall be promptly paid after the earlier of: (a) settlement of the dispute by
execution of a final Change Order document; or (b) final resolution of the dispute pursuant to Section 22.1 of this Agreement. The payment of any undisputed amounts shall not waive or otherwise limit Owner’s rights as set forth
in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, in Article 19 below. 
  
 5.10 Ownership of Materials. All material and work covered by progress payments made shall upon such payment become the sole property of Owner, however the Contractor shall not be relieved from the risk of loss
and responsibility for all material and Work upon which payments have been made or the restoration of any damaged Work. Contractor represents and warrants to Owner that (i) title to all of the Work, materials and equipment covered by any
Application for Progress Payment will pass to Owner upon the earlier of incorporation in the Work or receipt of payment by Contractor, and such title shall be free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances; (ii) the
vesting of such title shall not impose any obligations on Owner or relieve Contractor of any of its obligations under the Contract Documents; (iii) Contractor shall remain responsible for damage to or loss of the Work, whether completed or
under construction, except for Excepted Risks, until responsibility for the Work has been accepted by Owner in the manner set forth in Article 12 of this Agreement; and (iv) no Work covered by an Application for Progress Payment and no
material or equipment incorporated in the Work will have been acquired or incorporated into the Work, subject to an agreement under which an interest in the Work or an encumbrance on the Work is retained by the seller or otherwise imposed by
Contractor or any other person. “Excepted Risks” means all events listed in Section 11.4 as events of Force Majeure, except to the extent that any damage to or loss of the Work is caused by Contractor’s failure to
comply with the provisions of Section 7.2.7. 
  
 5.11 Deposits and Advance Payments. If any deposits or advance payments are required in connection with the execution of the Work, such deposits or advance payments will be specifically identified by category and credited against
amounts as billed in that category. Contractor shall provide Owner with a monthly statement of the total amount of all such deposits and advance payments then outstanding. In addition, Contractor will, promptly upon written request from Owner,
account for any and all funds theretofore received by Contractor from Owner. Contractor agrees to arrange to purchase such materials or equipment in advance of the time for installation in the Project as are deemed advisable by Owner or Contractor,
provided such purchases in excess of US$25,000 are approved by Owner and Owner’s Lenders. Upon Owner’s request, Contractor shall provide Owner with an assignment of Contractor’s rights relating to such deposit made and agreement for
purchase of such item. 
  
 5.12 Waiver. Any waiver by Owner
of the requirement that Contractor provide lien waivers with respect to any Application for Progress Payment, the Application for 

  

 52 








 
Original Project Final Payment or the Application for Expansion Project Final Payment shall not constitute a waiver of the obligation of Contractor to remove
or satisfy any and all liens exercised against Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project or the Expansion Project, which obligation shall at all times remain the responsibility of Contractor hereunder. Owner’s allowance or
payment of any item pursuant to any Application for Progress Payment or otherwise shall not constitute approval of the Work or the Application for Progress Payment, or result in Owner’s waiver of any claims, all of Owner’s rights being
specifically reserved, and no such payments shall operate as an admission on the part of Owner as to the propriety or accuracy of any amounts on such Application for Progress, Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment. A
progress payment or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Original Project or the Expansion Project by Owner shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents. Owner shall not be bound by any entries in
previous Applications for Progress Payment and shall be permitted to make corrections for errors therein. Owner’s final Original Project Contractor’s Fee installment payment, final Expansion Project Contractor’s Fee installment
payment, Original Project Final Payment and Expansion Project Final Payment shall in no way relieve Contractor of any obligations or responsibilities under the Contract Documents which extend beyond the date of such payment. 
  
 5.13 Materials Off-Site. Subject to Section 5.11 and
except as otherwise approved by Owner pursuant to Article 9, all materials which are the subject of an Application for Progress Payment (or an application for Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment, if applicable)
shall be stored at all times at the Project, in a bonded warehouse or such other secured facility satisfactory to Owner and Owner’s Lenders, or at the premises of the manufacturer or fabricator (in which event the materials shall be
appropriately marked and identified with the applicable purchase contract and physically segregated in an area with access to a public street), until the materials are incorporated into the Project; provided that if the materials are stored with the
manufacturer or fabricator, Owner must receive evidence satisfactory to Owner of the creditworthiness of the manufacturer or fabricator and/or Contractor shall procure and deliver or cause to be procured and delivered to Owner such dual obligee
performance and labor and material payment bond or bonds, in form, substance and amount satisfactory to Owner and Owner’s Lenders, as Owner and Owner’s Lenders may require. All materials that are stored off-Site shall be marked and
identified as the property of Owner, and Owner shall have the right to access all materials stored off-Site and to remove them from such off-Site location(s). Furthermore, Contractor shall: 
  
 5.13.1.1 use the materials only for construction of
the Project, and not make any transfer thereof or permit any lien to attach thereto which could materially impair the ability of Owner to use the materials for such purpose; 
  
 5.13.1.2 take or cause to be taken all actions necessary to insure, maintain, preserve and protect
the materials and keep them in good condition and repair, and 

  

 53 








 
to comply with all laws, regulations and ordinances relating to the ownership, storage or use of the materials; 
  
 5.13.1.3 cause to be delivered to Owner any
applicable bailee waivers where such bailee rights exists, and the original warehouse receipt covering any stored materials, and ensure that such stored materials have been stored in such a way as to eliminate the possibility that they will be
commingled with other materials or projects; and 
  
 5.13.1.4 if Contractor shall fail to perform any of its obligations under this Section 5.13 after Owner has made payment to Contractor for the materials, Owner or Owner’s Lender may, but shall not be obligated to,
take such actions and expend such sums as either may deem necessary to protect and preserve Owner’s and/or Owner’s Lenders’ security interest in such materials, and all such expenditures so incurred (including, but not limited to,
attorneys’ fees and disbursements) shall be reimbursed by Contractor promptly on demand and shall be Non-Allowable Costs of the Work. 
  
 ARTICLE VI.

relating to any Owner Delay); 
  
 6.1.4
Generally perform in a timely manner all of Owner’s obligations under the Contract Documents; 
  
 6.1.5 Prior to the Original Project Date of Commencement, obtain all licenses, approvals, consents, permits and authorizations
required to be obtained by Owner 

  

 54 








 
under the Contract Documents to allow the commencement of the Original Project Work, all of which Contractor acknowledges that, to the best of its knowledge,

 6.1.7
Include in all subcontracts, purchase orders and other agreements entered into with any of Owner’s Contractors or Owner’s Consultants a requirement that such Owner’s Contractor or Owner’s Consultant must comply with the direction
of Contractor in connection with the execution of the Work. 
  
 6.2 Limitations. Information on the Site and local conditions affecting the Site and any and all other information, reports, studies, surveys and materials provided by, or on behalf of, Owner is furnished solely for the convenience
of Contractor only, and without any representation, warranty or guarantee of accuracy, adequacy, correctness or completeness by Owner and Owner hereby disclaims all such warranties, guarantees and representations. Except to the extent set forth in
Article 13 below, and except to the extent the information and materials supplied by Owner contain inaccurate information that was not known to Contractor to be inaccurate (and such inaccuracy would not have been reasonably discovered by
Contractor in the exercise and/or performance of its obligations under the Contract Documents), Contractor assumes the risk of such conditions and shall fully complete the Work without an increase in the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or
the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) and within the applicable Contract Time (subject to Contractor’s right to use the Original Project Construction Contingency and the Expansion Project Construction Contingency (as
applicable) as provided in Section 3.1.8 hereof, to the extent there remain funds therein). 
  
 6.3 Owner’s Representative. Owner has designated Todd Nisbet and Gary Chin, each as “Owner’s Representative” to be
Owner’s authorized representative (each acting alone) to provide approvals and directives necessary for the day-to-day administration of the Project, including the Work. Each Owner’s Representative shall have the authority to bind the
Owner and the decision of any Owner’s Representative shall be binding on the Owner. Contractor acknowledges and confirms that no apparent authority, agency or similar claims may be made by Contractor with respect to any approval, authorization,
order or decision given or made from and after the execution date of this Agreement by any purported representative or employee of Owner other than any of Owner’s Representatives in writing 

  

 55 








 
(or such other individual authorized in writing by Owner), and all such claims are hereby waived by Contractor. 
  
 6.4 Site Access. Owner, Owner’s Lenders, Owner’s
Lenders’ technical advisor, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors, Macau SAR representatives and any party designated by Owner shall at all times have, and Contractor shall provide, complete and unfettered access to the Site and
the Work in progress and preparation wherever located at all times for any and all purposes as Owner and/or Owner’s Lenders may desire or as may be required under the Gaming Concession Agreement. Visits to the Site or observations of the Work
by Owner, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors, Macau SAR representatives, any party designated by Owner, Owner’s representatives or contractors, or Owner’s Lenders or Owner’s Lenders’ technical advisor shall in no
way relieve Contractor from its obligations to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. Subject to the terms of the Contract Documents, Owner shall, and shall require Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors to,
work without causing labor disharmony, coordination difficulties, delays, disruptions or interferences with Contractor, Subcontractors and Vendors. 
  
 6.5 Payments. Owner shall timely make payment to Contractor of amounts properly due to Contractor under and subject to (including Owner’s
right to offset and withhold as provided in) the Contract Documents. 
  
 6.6 Proof of Funding. Upon Contractor’s request, and subject to availability to Owner and the rights of the Owner’s Lenders, Owner will provide to Contractor a copy of the loan commitment and loan common terms agreement

 6.7 Good Faith. Owner shall use good faith in
performing its obligations under the Contract Documents, and, in addition to any specific obligations of Owner hereunder in this respect, it is agreed that Owner shall not unreasonably delay its review of and/or response to matters requiring

 ARTICLE VII. 
 CONTRACTOR’S RESPONSIBILITIES 
  
 7.1 Contractor’s Specific Representations, Warranties and Covenants. By entering into this Contract, Contractor
undertakes to furnish its best skill and judgment and to cooperate with Owner in furthering the best interests of Owner, the Work and the Project, and shall use good faith in performing its obligations under the Contract Documents. By entering into
this Contract, Owner is relying upon the specific undertakings, representations and warranties of Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau in favor of Owner as follows, and 

  

 56 








 
Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau each hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Owner that: 
  
 7.1.1 As of the Original Project Date of Commencement
and the Expansion Project Date of Commencement, Contractor shall be duly authorized and shall have the necessary license(s), approvals, consents, permits and other authorizations to practice and perform all Work in this jurisdiction, and Contractor
shall remain so licensed at all times relevant to the Work. Contractor shall ensure that all Subcontractors are duly authorized and have the necessary license(s), approvals, consents, permits and other authorizations to practice and perform all Work
to be performed by such Subcontractors in this jurisdiction and will remain so licensed at all times relevant to the Work. Contractor shall produce such license(s), approvals, consents, permits and other authorizations to the Owner upon request, and
Contractor shall be responsible to obtain copies of such license(s) from all Subcontractors prior to allowing them to perform Work on Site. Contractor has substantial experience in performing major projects with scopes of work similar to the Work
defined herein, is familiar with the activities of the governmental bodies having authority over the Project and has expertise and experience managing Subcontractors on projects of similar scope within the region. Contractor also represents that
such experience includes performing major projects with stringent time constraints and where construction begins before all drawings and specifications have been issued for construction purposes, as is the case with the Work and Project. The
standard by which Contractor shall be judged in its performance of this Agreement and its exercise of judgment hereunder shall be that of a contractor with the level of skill, experience and expertise necessary for the planning and construction of a
“five-star” first class international luxury resort and casino, including the foregoing qualifications and consistent with such other Contractor representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Contract Documents. 
  
 7.1.2 All of Contractor’s management involved
with the Project and key supervisory personnel shall speak fluent English and shall remain committed to and available for full-time assignments (except when on leave approved in advance by Owner) devoted to the Work until at least sixty
(60) days after the later of Expansion Project Substantial Completion and Original Project Substantial Completion. If Owner is dissatisfied with the services rendered by any of such persons, then upon Owner’s written request, Contractor
shall promptly substitute a person who is fluent in English of at least equal qualifications to perform the same function. Owner shall include in its written request Owner’s reasons for requiring such removal and substitution. If any of such
persons or any replacements thereof under the preceding sentence are no longer employed by Contractor, then Contractor shall promptly substitute a person who is fluent in English of at least equal qualifications to perform the same function and
notify Owner of the name of the substitute and his or her qualifications. Owner shall retain the right to approve all key personnel of Contractor involved in the Project. The individuals who shall be responsible on behalf of Contractor for
supervising the Work are set forth on Contractor’s Personnel list attached as Exhibit C to this Agreement. Except for reasons beyond its control, Contractor shall not change any of the individuals designated in said Exhibit C
during the term of the Agreement 

  

 57 








 
without the prior approval or specific direction of Owner, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. At least one Project Superintendent
or Project Manager shall be at the Site on a full-time basis and at all times while any Work is being performed. In no event shall Mr. Michael Derrington Harvey be removed as a Contractor’s Representative from the Project (other than due
to death, serious illness or incapacity), or be transferred to a different position with respect to the Project, without Owner’s prior written consent, which Owner may withhold in its sole discretion. 
  
 7.1.3 Contractor has examined and will continue to
examine all Contract Documents provided by Owner pertaining to the Work and the Site. Contractor fully accepts the lack of completeness of such documents. Contractor also represents that the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and
Assumptions and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions were sufficiently detailed and comprehensive to enable Contractor to have reliably estimated and established each of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price set forth in Article 3 of this Agreement. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, Contractor further agrees that all Work shall be performed within the Original Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and within the applicable Contract Time set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement, notwithstanding that the Contract Documents, including the Drawings and Specifications, are not
complete in every detail and are still being developed. 
  
 7.1.4 Contractor has had ample time to and has visited and examined the Site and has reviewed the physical conditions affecting the Work, and will continue to do all of the foregoing, and, subject to the
provisions of Article 13 hereof, is familiar with all of the conditions on, under, and affecting the Site, as Contractor deemed necessary or desirable based on Contractor’s skill, experience and knowledge and the scope of the Work and
terms of the Contract Documents. Furthermore, Contractor has satisfied itself as to the nature and location of the Work, the general and local conditions, and traffic, particularly those bearing upon transportation, handling, and storage of
materials, availability of labor, water, power, roads, weather, above-ground and sub-surface conditions at the Site and all other matters which can affect the Work or the cost thereof. Contractor has verified field conditions, and carefully and
fully compared such field conditions, Site observations and other information known to Contractor with the Contract Documents (including the requirements thereof) and has not found any omissions, errors or discrepancies and has satisfied and will
continue to satisfy itself as to: (a) access thereto; (b) the location of all utility pipelines and wiring conduits which can be ascertained through Site visits or by any documents which are provided by Owner; (c) the type of
equipment and facilities needed before and during prosecution of the Work; (d) the general and local labor and weather conditions and availability of materials and equipment under which the Work is to be performed; (e) the presence of
construction hazards, if any; (f) the nature, location, and character of the Work and the Site, including, but not limited to, all improvements and obstructions on and under the Site, both natural and man-made, and coordination of the execution
and completion of all phases of the Original Project and Expansion Project; and (g) all other matters which may 

  

 58 








 
affect the Contractor’s means, methods, techniques and procedures necessary to construct the Work in strict accordance with the Contract Documents and
otherwise fulfill its obligations under the Contract Documents, including but not limited to its obligation to complete the Work for an amount not in excess of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price on or before the applicable Contract Time. Any condition at the Site, whether or not consistent with conditions shown or called for on the Contract Documents, shall not be allowed as a basis for claims for increase of the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or extensions of the applicable Contract Time, except as otherwise specifically provided for in Article 13 below or otherwise in this Agreement,
notwithstanding any statements or representations by Owner or any party on behalf of Owner, oral or written, with respect to the conditions of the Site or improvements thereon, or regarding the completeness, correctness, or adequacy of any Contract
Documents (provided that such statements or representations were made in good faith). 
  
 7.1.5 Prior to commencing its procurement and construction activities, Contractor shall further verify at the Site all measurements
and levels necessary for proper construction of the Work, including the fabrication, assembly and installation of materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Work and shall further carefully compare such verified field measurements and
conditions with the requirements of the Contract Documents. 
  
 7.1.6 If the Contractor observes any failure of the Contract Documents to conform with applicable Laws, Contractor shall immediately notify Owner in writing and identify any such discrepancies and shall be
responsible for rectifying the Contract Documents so that they shall conform with all applicable Laws. Subject to Section 7.2, if the Contractor performs Work that it knows or reasonably should have known to be in non-compliance with
applicable Laws, the Contractor shall assume full responsibility for such Work and shall bear all costs (including loss and damage due to delays) of correction, repair and replacement attributable thereto as Non-Allowable Costs of the Work.

  
 7.1.7 If Contractor discovers or
otherwise becomes aware of any errors, discrepancies, omissions, duplications or conflicts in the Contract Documents at any time during the course of the Work, Contractor shall immediately notify Owner in writing and shall be responsible for
rectifying the same. If the Contractor performs any Work relating to any such errors, discrepancies, omissions, duplications or conflicts in the Contract Documents, neither the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price nor Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be increased. Contractor shall continue being paid for the Cost of the Work (but shall not be entitled to payment and/or reimbursement with respect to Non-Allowable Costs of the Work), all in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement. 
  
 7.1.8 Contractor
will not use the Site for any purpose other than the performance of the Work. Contractor will not engage in, nor commit its personnel to engage in, any other projects while performing Work on the Project to any extent that such other 

  

 59 








 
projects may materially and adversely affect the quality or efficiency of the Work required to be performed by Contractor in connection with this Project or
which will otherwise be detrimental to the carrying on and completion of this Project. 
  
 7.1.9 Contractor acknowledges (a) that the Project involves the construction of a “five-star” first class Las
Vegas-style luxury resort and casino in accordance with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and the Contract Documents, (b) that the
Contract Price reflects a premium in the amount Contractor (or a third party contractor with similar experience, skill and reputation as Contractor) would charge for the construction of the Work, and (c) that such premium is a direct reflection
of Owner’s stringent requirements and high expectations for the quality of the Work. Contractor agrees that it will utilize the highest level of care and diligence in carrying out its obligations hereunder. 
  
 7.1.10 Gaming Concession Agreement. Contractor has
been provided with a copy of the Gaming Concession Agreement and (a) has reviewed the provisions thereof, (b) has familiarized itself with each of the obligations of Owner under the Gaming Concession Agreement (including, but not limited
to, Clauses 3, 4, 35, 36, 37, 40, 42, 67, 69, 79, 80, 84, 85 and 92 thereof), and (c) is aware of the consequences of Owner’s non-compliance with such obligations. Contractor hereby covenants that (i) it will comply with each of the
provisions of the Gaming Concession Agreement applicable to the Work and the duties and obligations of Contractor hereunder, and (ii) it will not, and it shall procure that the Subcontractors and Vendors to not, cause Owner to breach
Owner’s obligations under the Gaming Concession Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, if Contractor becomes aware of any action or omission by any Subcontractor or Vendor that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach by Owner of
Owner’s obligations under the Gaming Concession Agreement, Contractor shall immediately notify Owner thereof and immediately terminate such Subcontractor or Vendor. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 7.1.10,
Contractor acknowledges that pursuant to Clause 37 of the Gaming Concession Agreement, the Macau SAR may suspend construction of the Project if it determines that the construction plans are not adequately implemented. 
  
 7.1.11 Land Concession Agreement. Contractor
understands that the Land Concession Agreement entered into by Owner contains various obligations on the part of Owner with respect to the use of the Site. Owner has provided a copy of the Land Concession Agreement to Contractor. Contractor hereby
covenants that it shall comply with each of the following requirements set forth below in this Section 7.1.11 (it being acknowledged and agreed by Contractor that such requirements represent excerpts of certain of Owner’s obligations under
the Land Concession Agreement): 
  
 7.1.11.1 Contractor shall not, and shall not permit any of its subcontractors (of any tier) to, remove or allow the removal from the Site of any materials such as land, rocks, fill, sand or other similar materials (collectively
referred to as “Fill Materials”) without the prior written consent of Owner. Contractor recognizes that such 

  

 60 








 
prior written consent may be subject to Owner’s obtaining prior written consent from the Macau SAR under the Land Concession Agreement, and that Owner
cannot ensure the timing or approval of such consent from the Macau SAR. Any such removal of any Fill Materials from the Site without Owner’s prior written consent shall constitute a breach hereunder. Contractor shall cause any Fill Materials
removed from the Site to be deposited in such location as may be specified by the Macau SAR. 
  
 7.1.11.2 Contractor will take necessary and appropriate measures to ensure that no Fill Materials are removed from the Site by
others (including without limitation by providing adequate 24 hour security at the Site, and ensuring that trucks and other vehicles are inspected prior to their exit from the Site). 
  
 7.1.11.3 Contractor shall provide adequate training and instructions to all Persons who enter the
Site so that all such Persons are made aware of the restriction against removal of Fill Materials described herein. The Contractor shall post appropriate signage in and around the Site advising of the restriction. 
  
 7.1.11.4 Contractor shall inform its Subcontractors
about the restriction on removal of Fill Materials, and shall (unless otherwise agreed by Owner) include in every subcontract similar provisions to those provided herein regarding the restriction on removal of Fill Materials and the other
precautionary and remedial measures set out herein. 
  
 7.1.11.5 Owner shall have the right to require the immediate removal or dismissal of any employee or agent of Contractor or any Subcontractor who Owner believes has violated the restrictions against removal of Fill Materials set
forth herein, including the right to remove or dismiss any supervisory personnel and others who permitted, or failed to prevent, the removal of Fill Materials as provided herein. 
  
 7.2 Further Covenants. Contractor covenants and agrees that all Work performed by Contractor or any Subcontractor or
Vendor shall be carried out: (a) with a proper supply of skilled labor, materials and equipment; (b) in full compliance with the requirements contained in, indicated on and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents given
Contractor’s status as a contractor experienced with construction projects similar in size, quality and complexity to the Work, (c) in full compliance with all applicable laws, consents, ordinances, mitigation measures, codes, rules,
directives, orders, permits, approvals, entitlements, statutes, and regulations, whether governmental or public administrative (including, but not limited to, all applicable Laws of Macau relating to noise control and pollution) (collectively,
“Laws”); (d) diligently and in the best manner to assure completion on or before the respective Original Project Interim Milestone Dates, the Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates, the Guaranteed Date of Original Project
Substantial Completion and the Guaranteed Date of Expansion Project Substantial Completion, (e) by qualified design professionals where applicable, and (f) in full compliance with the terms of insurance applicable to the Work. Contractor
shall be 

  

 61 








 
responsible for ensuring that the Drawings and Specifications (including, but not limited to, the construction documents prepared by Owner’s
Consultants) conform to Laws applicable to the design aspects of the Drawings or Specifications. Applicable Laws shall supersede the Contract Documents if there is any conflict; provided, however, that if any applicable Laws shall necessitate a
Change to or deviation from the Contract Documents, Contractor shall obtain Owner’s written consent prior to implementing that Change. Contractor shall be responsible for failing to report any discrepancy between the Contract Documents and
applicable Laws of which Contractor knows or should have reasonably known in the exercise of due diligence and prudent judgment and consistent with the terms of the Contract Documents. If Contractor performs any part of the Work in violation of any
such applicable Laws, Contractor shall bear the costs of remedying such Work so as to be in compliance with such Laws, the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price shall not be adjusted and
Contractor shall not have the right to use the Original Project Construction Contingency or the Expansion Project Construction Contingency to pay the costs arising therefrom. If any new Law is enacted or any change to existing Law applicable to the
Work occurs after the Effective Date, and to the extent that such new Law or change in Law has an impact on the Work and/or the cost of performing the Work, Contractor shall (i) subject to consultation with and the written approval of Owner,
perform and construct the Work in accordance with such applicable Law, and (ii) such impact shall constitute a Change and the provisions of Article 18 shall apply (including with respect to the determination of any adjustment to the
Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the Contract Time). In fulfilling its responsibilities under the Contract Documents, Contractor shall furnish, coordinate, manage and pay for all services and personnel, labor, machinery, tools, materials and
equipment, necessary to:

 7.3.3 Advise Owner in writing promptly upon discovery if, in the judgment of Contractor, the information provided on architectural or engineering documents is inadequate for the current purposes intended or if requirements of such
documents conflict with other documents issued or with existing conditions at the Site. In any such event, Contractor will issue a Request for Information (“RFI”) to the Architect/Engineer or Owner’s Consultant (with a copy to
Owner). 
  
 7.3.4 Systematically review
the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, the documents prepared by Owner’s Consultants), as the same are being prepared and check the same for (a) obvious conflicts, discrepancies and omissions, and (b) variations from
customary construction practices and methods which, in the opinion of Contractor, may cause difficulties or occasion delay in the performance of the Work and timely advise Owner, Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors (if applicable)

Owner or 

  

 69 








 
Architect/Engineer, or, by any request, approval or consent of Owner or Architect/Engineer, or by tests, inspections or approvals required or performed by
persons other than Contractor. Contractor shall require and ensure that each Subcontractor and Vendor complies with all applicable requirements set forth in the Contract Documents for Contractor. Except to the extent the Contract Documents expressly
provide otherwise, if any dispute arises between Owner, on the one hand, and Contractor, on the other hand, unless Owner directs otherwise, Contractor shall proceed with the performance of its obligations under the Contract with reservation of all
rights and remedies it may have under and subject to the terms of the Contract Documents. 
  
 7.7.1.10 Without limiting the provisions of Sections 7.7.1.1 through 7.7.1.9, Contractor acknowledges that upon opening portions of
the Project to the general public, such portions are intended to be operated as a “five-star” first class Las Vegas-style resort; accordingly, Contractor shall, and require all Subcontractors and Vendors to, carry out their obligations
under the Contract Documents with the utmost duty of care with respect to the general public. 
  
 7.8 Site Security. In cooperation with Owner, Contractor shall develop and implement an effective security program for protection of the Work in progress. Contractor shall secure, protect and be responsible
for, and shall provide all necessary or desirable measures for security and protection at and on the Site and the Work, and of all materials, supplies, tools and equipment and all other improvements and personal property at the Site or in the
vicinity of the Site, whether or not incorporated into the Work (collectively, the “On-Site Property”), including, but not limited to, utilizing fences, gates, cameras, and patrols (which shall include such number of duly qualified
guards, on a 24-hour basis, as Contractor (in consultation with and to the satisfaction of Owner) shall deem adequate or such larger number as shall be required to ensure security of the Site, the Work and the On-Site Property). Contractor shall
bear the cost of, and be liable for as a Non-Allowable Cost of the Work (subject to Section 3.2 hereof), and promptly shall remedy, all loss and damage to any Work, tools, equipment and all other improvements and personal property of the
Site from any cause whatsoever, except to the extent of loss or damage caused by Force Majeure, by Owner’s negligence or willful misconduct or by the negligence or willful misconduct of Owner’s separate contractors and their agents and
employees (subject to Contractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents to coordinate and monitor the work of such other Owner contractors). Owner may elect to provide and/or maintain security (including patrol guards) of its own choosing
for the whole or portions of the Work and/or Site and/or adjacent property, but Owner shall not have any obligation, responsibility or liability of any kind to any party whether or not Owner arranges for any security. Such Owner arranged or provided
security shall in no event release Contractor from or diminish any of Contractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, this Section 7.8, and Contractor shall be solely responsible for security at
and of the Work and Site, regardless of any security arranged for by Owner. Owner shall not assume or incur any responsibility or liability relating to any security arranged by Owner. Contractor shall 

  

 70 








 
cooperate with Owner’s security personnel and shall comply with all requests made by such personnel to secure and protect the Work and the Site.

  
 7.9 Coordination With Others. Contractor acknowledges
that Owner reserves the right to engage other contractors, engineers, inspectors, consultants and/or its own personnel to provide work or services relating to the Project which may be carried out concurrently with Contractor’s Work.
Specifically, and without limitation, Contractor acknowledges that FF&E procurement is excluded from Contractor’s Work but completion of installation of the same within the times set forth on the agreed upon Original Project Schedule and
the Expansion Project Schedule is necessary to achieve Original Project Substantial Completion and Expansion Project Substantial Completion. Contractor further acknowledges that a portion of Contractor’s Work will include installing materials
and equipment in the Project procured by Owner and provided by Owner to Contractor. Owner shall retain separate contractors and vendors for FF&E procurement as Owner desires; provided, however, upon Owner’s request Contractor agrees to
cooperate with Owner, including joint purchase arrangements, with respect to purchases of materials, supplies and equipment, including FF&E, where such cooperation and joint purchase may lead to a savings in purchase costs relating to such items
as determined by Owner. Contractor shall fully cooperate by coordinating its Work with any work or services being performed by Owner, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors and Owner’s other engineers and inspectors as follows:

  
 7.9.1 Contractor shall coordinate its
construction activities with the activities of Owner, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors and Owner’s other engineers and inspectors and provide the necessary personnel and services to coordinate and interface its Work with
Owner’s activities at the proper time and in a manner not to delay others or increase costs. 
  
 7.9.2 Contractor shall provide Owner and Owner’s Contractors with opportunities for the necessary storage and handling of
materials and equipment necessary for execution of their activities. 
  
 7.9.3 Contractor shall participate with Owner, Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors in reviewing their respective construction schedules when requested to do so. Contractor acknowledges that
the time allowed for each of Original Project Substantial Completion and Expansion Project Substantial Completion includes the necessary allowance of time for Contractor to coordinate and schedule the work of Owner’s Consultants and
Owner’s Contractors, and Contractor has included a specific allowance of time as it relates to Owner’s pre-opening activities with respect to each of the Original Project and the Expansion Project. 
  
 7.9.4 At its own expense as a Non-Allowable Cost of
the Work, Contractor shall promptly remedy any damage wrongfully caused by Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor to Owner’s existing property or completed or partially completed construction 

  

 71 








 
work performed by Owner, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors or Owner’s other engineers and inspectors. 
  
 7.9.5 If any part of the Work depends upon proper
execution of any completed work and services performed or otherwise provided by or on behalf of Owner, Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with its Work, inspect such work and promptly report to Owner any apparent discrepancies or defects in
Owner’s activities. The failure of Contractor to examine and report any such apparent discrepancies which are or should have been reasonably apparent to Contractor in the exercise of due diligence and prudent judgment and consistent with the
terms of the Contract Documents shall bar any Claims thereafter that any defects or delays in Contractor’s Work are due to defects, delays or disruptions in the activities performed or otherwise provided by Owner. 
  
 7.9.6 Contractor shall use, and Contractor shall
cause its Subcontractors and Vendors to use, all best efforts to work without causing labor disharmony, coordination difficulties, delays, disruptions, impairment of guarantees or interferences of any other obligations of any of Owner’s
Consultants, Owner’s Contractors and Owner’s other engineers and inspectors. 
  
 7.9.7 Contractor shall cooperate with Owner’s contractors, engineers, inspectors and vendors performing FF&E procurement
and installation services and shall incorporate such services in the Original Project Schedule and the Expansion Project Schedule and provide vertical transportation for the timely installation of FF&E. Contractor agrees to cause the Work to be
performed in such a manner so that prior to achievement of Original Project Substantial Completion and Expansion Project Substantial Completion (and as early as reasonably practicable), Owner will have access to the Site and the Original Work and
Expansion Project Work (as applicable) in order to (a) begin installing FF&E, the installation of which is not part of the Work except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, at the Site, (b) begin training its personnel at
the Site, and (c) and perform other tasks Owner deems necessary in connection with the opening of each of the Original Project and Expansion Project. 
  
 7.10 Product and Design Substitutions 
  
 7.10.1 All requests for Substitutions shall be made in writing and sufficiently in advance of Work performance needs to permit a
reasonable time for evaluation and written response by Owner without jeopardizing the Contract Time. 
  
 7.10.2 The acceptance of any Substitutions shall be at Owner’s sole discretion. 
  
 7.10.3 All Substitutions, including design changes
recommended by the Contractor, must be specifically accepted in writing by Owner prior to the use or implementation thereof by Contractor or any Subcontractor. 
  

 72 








 7.10.4 In reviewing any Substitution, including design changes, Owner may
consider, without limitation, the comparative advantages and responsibilities, including, but not limited to,: (a) any and all additional costs pertaining to any redesign and adverse consequences of such redesign, (b) any and all costs of
replacement, corrections or adjustments to the Work, adjoining Work and Owner’s existing property, and (c) any and all costs arising from adverse impacts to the critical path of the Original Project Schedule or the Expansion Project
Schedule and/or any delays in the Contract Time arising out of such Substitution. 
  
 7.10.5 Contractor shall promptly notify Owner in writing if any items in the Contract Documents shall not be readily available, and
Contractor shall propose an available substitute item for Owner’s approval. Nothing in this Section 7.10.5 or elsewhere in the Contract Documents shall derogate from Contractor’s responsibility to select, order, and timely
purchase such items. If Contractor does not timely order or arrange for delivery of items or materials required for the Work, then upon at least five (5) days’ prior written notice to Contractor, Owner may (but is not obligated to) arrange
for delivery or order such items and materials and in such event the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) shall be reduced pursuant to a Construction Change Directive in
accordance with Article 18. 
  
 7.11 Tests and
Inspections 
  
 7.11.1 All on-Site and
off-Site material testing and inspections required by the Contract Documents or by Laws shall be arranged and supervised by Contractor in a timely manner to avoid any delays in the Work. 
  
 7.11.2 Owner may elect to require additional testing and inspections at any time during the course of
the Work and for a period of one (1) year after the date of issuance of the Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion with respect to the Original Project Work and a period of one (1) year after the date of issuance of the
Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial Completion with respect to the Expansion Project Work, pursuant to Section 12.1 below. Such additional testing shall be paid for by Owner (from the Owner’s Contingency or otherwise)
unless such testing discloses material deficiencies not discovered during initial testing. In the event material deficiencies are disclosed, Contractor shall be responsible for all costs of such additional testing and inspections, and Contractor
shall pay such costs to Owner on demand therefor (or, at Owner’s option, Owner may deduct, withhold and/or set off such costs from or against any amounts then or thereafter payable or due to Contractor from Owner). Contractor’s
responsibility with respect to the costs of additional tests and inspections shall survive any termination of the Contract. 
  
 7.11.3 All certificates of such testing, inspection or approvals issued by all independent testing companies or governmental
authorities shall be promptly delivered to Owner. 
  

 73 








 7.11.4 No inspection, or failure to inspect, by Owner or the independent testing
companies or Owner’s Lenders shall be construed as approval or acceptance of the Work or as a waiver of Contractor’s obligations to perform the Work in full compliance with the Contract Documents. 
  
 7.12 Access to Stored Material. Owner, Owner’s Lenders and
Macau SAR representatives may enter upon the location where any material or equipment is manufactured or stored for purposes of inspection, checking, testing or for any other purpose Owner, Owner’s Lenders or Macau SAR representatives deem

 7.17 Cutting and Patching of Work. Contractor shall be responsible for all cutting, fitting or
patching of the Work that may be required to properly complete the Work or make its parts fit together properly. Any costs resulting from improper cutting, fitting and patching to any work performed by Owner or Owner’s Consultants shall be
Contractor’s responsibility as a Cost of the Work. Contractor shall not damage or endanger a portion of the Work or fully or partially completed construction of Owner or separate contractors by cutting, patching or otherwise altering such
construction, or by excavation. Contractor shall not cut or otherwise alter such construction by Owner or a separate contractor except with consent of Owner, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Contractor, if required by
Specifications and Drawings, shall make connections to materials or equipment furnished, set, and/or installed by other contractors. No Work connecting to such materials or equipment provided by other contractors shall be done without giving such
contractors a reasonable length of time to complete their work or until permission to proceed has been obtained from Owner. Owner shall secure and provide to Contractor the Shop Drawings from Owner’s Contractors for such of their work as is to
be built into Contractor’s Work, or to which Contractor must make connection, and Contractor shall review and advise Owner of any discrepancy or unsuitability relative to its own Work. Each party shall cause its contractors to provide all
openings and chases in its own work necessary for the installation of process equipment, and shall fill in around the same afterwards, if required. 
  
 7.18 On-Demand Bond Requirements 
  
 7.18.1 Contractor’s Bond Requirements. 
  
 7.18.1.1 On or before the date that is the earlier of (A) thirty days following the execution of
this Agreement and (B) the consummation of Owner’s refinancing of the Project (currently scheduled to be on or about August 15, 2005), Contractor shall furnish two (2) fully executed On-Demand Bonds, substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit L (with such changes to such form as may be required by Owner’s Lenders prior to the actual issuance of the On-Demand Bond, so long as such changes do not materially or substantially alter Contractor’s
rights, duties or obligations thereunder), naming Owner and, if requested by Owner’s Lenders, Owner’s Lenders (as Owner’s Lenders may change from time to time), as obligees and beneficiaries, covering both the Contractor’s
faithful performance of this Contract and the payment of all obligations arising hereunder. The On-Demand Bonds shall be in the aggregate amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the initial Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and ten percent
(10%) of the initial Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, respectively. Thereafter, neither On-Demand Bond shall be increased or decreased unless Owner grants advance written approval of such increase or decrease. Each On-Demand Bond
shall provide that it may be freely assignable by Owner to Owner’s Lenders, and by Owner’s Lenders to any subsequent lenders or successors and assigns. Each On-Demand Bond and all supplements shall be issued by a bank approved in writing
by Owner and Owner’s Lenders. Without limiting the approval rights of Owner and Owner’s Lenders set forth in the previous sentence, the issuer of the On-Demand Bonds shall, both prior to the issuance of the On-Demand Bonds and at all times
until such 

  

 79 








 
On-Demand Bond expires or terminated pursuant to the terms thereof, be rated “A” or higher by Standard & Poor’s Corporation or by
Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or an equivalent rating provided by a locally available rating agency, with such rating and such rating agency acceptable to Owner and Owner’s Lenders). If the issuer of the On-Demand Bonds ceases to be
rated at least “A” by either Standard & Poor’s Corporation or by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (or falls below the acceptable rating set by Owner and Owner’s Lenders with respect to the local rating agency, if
applicable), Contractor shall, within five (5) business days of such down-grading, obtain replacement On-Demand Bonds which conforms to the requirements of this Section 7.18.1. Concurrently with Contractor’s delivery of the On-Demand
Bonds pursuant to this Section 7.18.1.1, Owner shall return the On-Demand Bond previously delivered by Contractor to Owner pursuant to the Original Agreement. 
  
 7.18.1.2 The parties acknowledge that the On-Demand Bonds specify that any demand made thereunder
shall be accompanied by a written statement signed by the Owner or by an “Independent Expert” certifying that the Contractor has failed to perform all or any of its obligations under this Agreement and the amount of the damages claimed by
the Owner as a result of such failure. Owner and Contractor hereby agree to appoint Geoff McCauley of WT Partnership as the Independent Expert for purposes of the On-Demand Bonds. If Geoff McCauley (or any successor Independent Expert) resigns,
dies, becomes incapacitated or is otherwise unable to serve as the Independent Expert, Owner and Contractor shall attempt in good faith to agree upon a successor Independent Expert. If Owner and Contractor are unable to name a successor Independent
Expert within thirty (30) days, the dispute shall be resolved by arbitration in accordance with Section 22.1. If Owner desires to make demand under either or both On-Demand Bonds, Owner shall deliver a notice to the Independent Expert
requesting that the Independent Expert make a determination whether or not Contractor has failed to perform all or any of its obligations under this Agreement and the amount of the damages due Owner as a result of any such failure. If the
Independent Expert determines that Contractor has failed to perform all or any of its obligations under this Agreement, the Independent Expert shall deliver a “Statement” pursuant to (and as defined in) the On-Demand Bonds. Except as
provided in the next sentence, only the Independent Expert, and not Owner, shall have the right to deliver a Statement pursuant to the On-Demand Bonds. If (a) the Independent Expert fails to make a determination whether or not Contractor has
failed to perform all or any of its obligations under this Agreement within twenty-one (21) days after receipt of Owner’s notice, (b) the Independent Expert determines that Contractor has failed to perform all or any of its
obligations under this Agreement and the Independent Expert fails to deliver a Statement pursuant to the applicable On-Demand Bond within twenty-one (21) days after receipt of Owner’s notice, or (c) no Independent Expert is then
serving and no successor has yet been appointed, then Owner shall have the right to deliver a Statement pursuant to the applicable On-Demand Bond if Owner determines in good faith that Contractor has failed to perform all or any of its obligations
under this Agreement. 
  
 7.18.2
Subcontractor’s Bond Requirements. On a case-by-case basis for subcontracts with a contract value in excess of Five Million United States Dollars 

  

 80 








 
(US$5,000,000), Owner may elect to require that Contractor’s Subcontractors provide an On-Demand Bond as described in Section 7.18.1 above
using a form approved by Owner and Owner’s Lenders. The amount of each such On-Demand Bond shall be equivalent to a minimum of ten percent (10%) of the full value of the relevant subcontract or such lesser amount as Owner may approve in
writing. All costs of each On-Demand Bond for those Subcontractors so designated by Owner shall be quoted separately to Owner for Owner’s prior written approval before such bond is obtained. Contractor shall recommend to Owner whether or not to
require such On-Demand Bonds as to each respective Subcontractor. Nothing in this Section 7.18 shall preclude Contractor from requiring a bond, guarantee or other security from any Subcontractor or Vendor; provided, however, that in the
event Owner does not grant prior written approval for an On-Demand Bond with respect to such Subcontractor or Vendor, Contractor’s election to require such bond, guarantee or other security shall be at Contractor’s sole cost and expense.

  
 7.19 Liens. 
  
 7.19.1 If at any time Owner receives any stop notice,
mechanic’s lien or similar claim pertaining to unpaid amounts for any labor, goods, materials, equipment or services provided as part of Contractor’s scope of Work (and provided Owner has paid all sums then due and owing to Contractor
pursuant to and within the time period set forth in the Contract Documents), Contractor agrees to immediately release or cause the release of Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project and/or the Expansion Project, as applicable,
from such notices, liens or claims, or, at Contractor’s option, to file a bond in lieu thereof in an amount satisfactory to Owner. All costs incurred by Contractor in effecting the foregoing shall be at Contractor’s sole expense as a
Non-Allowable Cost of the Work, except that should Contractor be successful in having Owner’s property, the Site the Original Project and/or the Expansion Project, as applicable, released from such notices, liens or claims without the necessity
of Contractor posting any bond and without the payment by Contractor to the lien claimant of any monies to effect such release, all of Contractor’s reasonable fees and costs incurred in effecting such release shall be a Cost of the Work. It is
expressly understood that all of Contractor’s obligations with respect to this Section 7.19 begin immediately at the outset of any notice of a claim, either by correspondence or court proceeding or otherwise, and without regard to
any showing of fault on the Contractor’s part, and in all cases Contractor shall cause Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project and/or the Expansion Project, as applicable, to be released from all such liens and claims or,
at Contractor’s option, bond against such liens and claims in accordance with Section 7.19.2 below, in either case within fifteen (15) days of receipt of notice thereof (or such lesser period in any loan documents relating to
Owner’s Lenders). 
  
 7.19.2 If any
such notice or claim is received and Contractor does not release, or cause the release, of Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project and/or the Expansion Project, as applicable, from the lien or claim within the fifteen
(15) day period set forth in Section 7.19.1 or, at Contractor’s option, obtain a bond and file with the appropriate court a petition to substitute the bond for such lien or claim within fifteen 

  

 81 








 
(15) days after receipt of notice thereof (or such lesser period in any loan documents relating to Owner’s Lenders), and obtain a court order within
thirty (30) days after filing such petition, allowing substitution of the bond for such lien, Owner shall have the right to pay all sums necessary to obtain the release of Owner, Owner’s property, the Site, the Original Project or the
Expansion Project, as applicable from such lien or claim and deduct all sums to be paid (including attorneys’ fees and the amount of any obligations assumed by Owner) from the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). 
  
 7.19.3 Contractor acknowledges (a) that pursuant to Clause 42 of the Gaming Concession Agreement, Owner is required to keep the Project and the Work free and clear of any liens, encumbrances or security interests, and
(b) that a breach of this provision of the Gaming Concession Agreement will cause Owner to suffer substantial losses. Contractor agrees that it will not, and it shall use reasonable precautions to ensure that the Subcontractors and Vendors do
not, impose, or exercise their rights with respect to, any liens, encumbrances or security interests on the Project and the Work. Further, all materials and equipment supplied by Contractor pursuant to the Contract Documents shall be delivered free
and clear of all liens and not be subject to any conditional sale, purchase-money lien, security agreement, financing agreement or chattel mortgages. Contractor agrees that, to the extent it is permitted by law to claim a lien on any material or
equipment at the Site or any component of the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents or applicable Law, it will not exercise such right. 
  
 7.20 Royalties and Patents. Contractor shall pay as a Cost of the Work in accordance with Section 3.2.11 hereof all royalties and
license fees relating to the Work. Contractor shall defend suits or claims for infringement of patent rights and shall indemnify and hold Owner harmless from loss on account thereof, but shall not be responsible for such defense or loss when a
particular design, process or product of a particular manufacturer or manufacturers is required by the Contract Documents. However, if Contractor knows, or should know following due inquiry, that the required design, process or product is an
infringement of a patent, Contractor shall be responsible for such loss unless such information is promptly furnished to Owner. 
  
 7.21 Training. 
  
 7.21.1 With respect to the Original Project, prior to and as a condition to payment of the Original Project Final Payment,
Contractor shall orient and instruct the responsible maintenance personnel designated by Owner in the operations of all equipment and shall provide the maintenance personnel with pertinent literature and operational manuals for all equipment
designated by Owner. 
  
 7.21.2 With
respect to the Expansion Project, prior to and as a condition to payment of the Expansion Project Final Payment, Contractor shall orient and instruct the responsible maintenance personnel designated by Owner in the operations of all equipment


  

 82 








 
and shall provide the maintenance personnel with pertinent literature and operational manuals for all equipment designated by Owner. 
  
 7.22 Construction Photographs. Contractor shall submit color
construction photographs to Owner and Owner’s Lenders with each month’s Application For Progress Payment during the Work. Each month, such photographs shall consist of at least four (4) views of the building from ground-view points as
directed by Owner and any interior views requested by Owner or Owner’s Lenders. 
  
 7.23 Statement of Unpaid Claims. Whenever requested by Owner or Owner’s Lenders, Contractor shall certify to Owner in writing (in a form satisfactory to Owner) the amounts then claimed by and/or due and
owing from Contractor to any person(s) for labor and services performed and materials and supplies furnished relating to the Work, setting forth the names of the persons whose charges or claims for materials, supplies, labor, or services have been
paid and whose charges or claims are unpaid or in dispute, and the amount due to or claimed by each respectively. 
  
 7.24 Protection of Work. Contractor shall design, furnish, erect and maintain in a safe manner to cause to be designed, furnished and erected, such
barricades, fences, and railings; give such warnings; display such lights, signals and signs; exercise such precautions against fire; adopt and enforce the rules, regulations or requirements of governmental authorities, and take such precautions as
may be necessary. Contractor shall immediately report in writing to Owner all accidents howsoever arising out of or in connection with the performance of the Contract Documents, whether on or adjacent to the Site, which result in death, injury or
property damage, giving full details and statements of witnesses. In addition, if death or serious injury or serious damage is caused, the accident shall be reported by telecopy to Owner and the insurance carrier or its representative providing
insurance for the Project. If any claim is made by any third party against Contractor, any Subcontractor or Vendor, on account of any accident or similar event, Contractor shall immediately report the fact in writing to Owner, giving details of the
claim and Contractor’s explanations as to the same. 
  
 7.25 Information to Authorities. Contractor acknowledges that (a) Owner and its affiliates are subject to stringent and comprehensive Laws in Macau and in the United States of America (including those issued by the gaming authorities
thereof); and (b) Contractor (as well as Subcontractors and Vendors at any tier) may, at the request of Owner or the appropriate governmental authority, be required to submit from time to time such information regarding its operations, businesses or
ownership to Owner or the appropriate governmental authority, as the case may be. Contractor shall provide to Owner English translations of all non-English documents (a) filed with applicable governmental authorities in connection with the
construction of the Work or (b) delivered to Owner under this Agreement. Contractor shall ensure that all translations submitted to Owner are true and accurate in all material respects. 
  

 83 








 7.26 Hazardous Materials. 
  
 7.26.1 Title to, ownership of and legal responsibility for all pre-existing hazardous materials at
the Site shall remain with Owner. In this Agreement, “pre-existing hazardous materials” shall be limited to all substances that are considered hazardous or toxic under the laws of Macau that (a) existed as of the Original
Project Date of Commencement, (b) have not been introduced to the Site by Contractor, and (c) have not been negligently disturbed by Contractor, including asbestos and poly-chlorinated biphenyl (PCB). 
  
 7.26.2 Contractor shall have no responsibility for
the handling, removal or disposal of pre-existing hazardous materials at the Site except to the extent addressed or covered in the Contract Documents or otherwise made known to or is known to or, as of the date hereof, is reasonably foreseeable by
Contractor. 
  
 7.26.3 In the event
Contractor encounters pre-existing hazardous materials or materials reasonably expected to be hazardous to health, Contractor shall, within one (1) day of discovering such materials, notify Owner and stop work in the affected area until an
environmental laboratory properly certified by the applicable Authority retained directly by Owner shall have verified that the relevant materials have been removed or rendered harmless. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Contractor shall use its best
efforts to minimize any delay to the Original Project Schedule and the Expansion Project Schedule caused by the discovery of pre-existing hazardous materials. 
  

7.26.4 In the event Contractor shall reasonably determine that the either or both of the Original Project Schedule or the
Expansion Project Schedule will be delayed due to the presence of pre-existing hazardous materials, it shall, within ten (10) days of the initial discovery of such pre-existing hazardous materials, submit to Owner a Change Proposal Request for
an extension of time and/or an adjustment to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) in accordance with Article 18 hereof. Contractor’s failure to submit a Change
Proposal Request within the time period stated in this Section 7.26.4 shall amount to a waiver of its rights hereunder. Contractor shall not be entitled to an extension of time or an adjustment to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for hazardous materials that are not pre-existing hazardous materials. 
  
 7.26.5 All solid and liquid wastes, hazardous substances, and hazardous materials used by Contractor (including all solvents,
cleaners, waste oils and trash) shall be handled and disposed of in full compliance with all applicable Laws (including, but not limited to, environmental laws of Macau). Contractor shall be responsible for any environmental contamination that
occurs at the Site as the result of the acts or omissions of Contractor or its Subcontractors, Vendors or invitees. 
  

 84 








 7.26.6 Contractor and its Subcontractors and Vendors shall have no responsibility
for the discovery, presence, handling, removal or disposal of pre-existing hazardous materials discovered on the Site, including asbestos, asbestos products, poly-chlorinated biphenyl (PCB) or other substances classified as hazardous by the
Environmental Protection Agency of the U.S. Government or any other federal, state or local government agency of the United States, except to the extent addressed or covered in the Contract Documents or otherwise made known to or reasonably
foreseeable by Contractor. If Contractor discovers the presence of any hazardous materials at the Site not otherwise called out in the Contract Documents or otherwise made known to or reasonably foreseeable by Contractor, Contractor shall promptly
report the presence and precise location of any such materials to Owner and immediately stop Work in the affected area unless requested otherwise by Owner. 
  
 7.27 Taxes, Customs and Import Duties. 
  
 7.27.1 Contractor shall be responsible for the payment of all Taxes imposed on or as a consequence of the importation of any
machinery, hardware and software, articles, equipment, apparatus, materials, supplies, appliances, parts, instruments or other things of all kinds which are required to construct the Work (collectively, the “Plant”) into Macau and
delivery to and erection on the Site for the purposes of this Agreement. Contractor shall indemnify Owner from and against all liability, cost, damages, loss and expense: 
  
 (a) arising from the Contractor’s failure to pay the whole or any part of any such Taxes; or

  
 (b) resulting from the Contractor’s
failure to co-operate with, or follow instructions from the Owner or the Owner’s Representative, to maintain such exemptions from or reductions of such Reimbursable Taxes as may be granted by any governmental authority to the Owner. 

 
 7.27.2 In addition to the foregoing, Contractor
shall: 
  
 (a) timely obtain all exemptions from
or reductions of all Reimbursable Taxes which are reasonably capable of being obtained, having regard to all applicable Laws at the date of importation; 
  
 (b) not make changes to the type or country of origin of any Plant or in the method of packaging, shipment or importation which would
result in any increase in the Reimbursable Taxes payable (unless the overall cost of such Plant would be reduced); and 
  
 (c) not knowingly provide information on, or exclude information from, any Project import list or packing list, which would attract Tax at
a rate higher than the applicable concessionary rate.

 ARTICLE VIII.

 ARCHITECT/ENGINEER; DESIGN DOCUMENTS 
  
 8.1 Architect’s/Engineer’s Administration of the Contract 
  
 8.1.1 The term Architect/Engineer includes the Architect/Engineer and the
Architect’s/Engineer’s authorized representatives. Architect/Engineer shall act in its professional capacity as a Subcontractor during the course of the Work. Contractor shall have direct responsibility of all work performed by the
Architect/Engineer, whether occurring prior or subsequent to the date the Architect/Engineer Agreement is transferred to Contractor. The Guaranteed Maximum Price includes all fees and expenses due to the Architect/Engineer. 
  
 8.1.2 The Architect/Engineer shall at all times have
access to the Work wherever it is in preparation or being performed. 
  
 8.1.3 The Architect/Engineer shall have authority to require additional inspection or testing of the Work, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed or completed, by giving reasonable advance notice in
writing to both Owner and Contractor. However, only Owner shall have authority to reject any Work which does not conform to the Contract Documents. 
  
 8.1.4 The Architect/Engineer shall review and approve or take other appropriate action upon the Contractor’s submittals such
as Shop Drawings, Product Data and Samples, for the limited purposes of checking for conformance with the Specifications and related design intent expressed in the Contract Documents. The Architect/Engineer shall provide its response to all such
submittals in a timely manner to avoid delays in the Work. 
  
 8.1.5 Contractor acknowledges that Owner’s Design is an integral part of the design process and understands and accepts the responsibility of coordinating the Owner’s Design with the
Architect/Engineer’s design. 
  
 8.2 Design Information,
Drawings and Manuals. 
  
 8.2.1
Draft Design Information. Not less than sixty (60) days prior to the commencement of each construction activity as shown on the then current Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable), Contractor shall submit
to Owner’s Representative Drawings, Specifications and related design information (collectively, “Design Information”) in relation thereto in a form and to a level of detail acceptable to the Owner’s Representative. The
Design Information shall describe the size, quality and character of the applicable portion of the Work as it relates to the Project (including the interrelation of the Original Project and Expansion Project, if applicable); its architectural,
structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire safety systems; and the materials and other elements of the applicable portion of the Work necessary for construction to be 

  

 86 








 
completed in compliance with the requirements of the Contract Documents and all applicable Laws. In the event that Contractor submits any Design Information
that does not comply with or is inconsistent with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and/or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions, or prior Design Information, it shall clearly
identify and give particulars of such non-compliance or inconsistency. 
  
 8.2.2 Approval of Design Information. If Contractor shall request Owner’s approval of particular Design Information, then within thirty (30) days of receipt of such Design Information, the
Owner’s Representative shall either (a) if it considers the same to comply with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable)
and the prior Design Information, approve the same in writing or (b) raise objections thereto in writing, in which case the same shall be modified by Contractor as often and to the extent necessary to comply, in the opinion of the Owner’s
Representative, with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expended Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable) and the prior Design Information, whereupon approval will be given.
Failure by Owner to raise objections in writing within said thirty (30) day period shall be deemed an approval by Owner under clause (a); provided that Contractor shall have provided Owner with an additional notice not less than five
(5) nor more than eight (8) days prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period stating that Owner’s failure to respond shall constitute a deemed approval of the particular Design Information. On each re-submission of the
Design Information objected to by the Owner’s Representative, the Owner’s Representative shall give his consent or raise further objections to the re-submitted Design Information within fourteen (14) days of its receipt by the
Owner’s Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner’s Representative’s approval shall be required on all Design Information relating to aesthetics (colors, finishes, etc.) or major building systems or equipment having
long-term maintenance requirements (such as elevators). In addition, Owner shall have the right to raise objections to any other Design Information regardless of whether Contractor requested Owner’s approval thereof, provided that any such
objections are made within thirty (30) days after Owner first has knowledge of the particular Design Information. 
  
 8.2.3 Further Information. For the purpose of exercising his power hereunder, the Owner’s Representative may call for
such further or other Design Information as may be reasonably necessary. 
  
 8.2.4 No Relief from Liability. Contractor acknowledges that neither: 
  
 (a) the examination of or the giving or withholding of approval to any Design Information under this Article 8, or the making of
objections, representations, comments or suggestions, or any failure to make the same in relation to the Design Information or any other aspect of the Work; nor 
  


 87 








 (b) any other act or omission of Owner, the Owner’s Representative, the Owner’s
Lenders or of any other person acting or purporting to act on their behalf in relation to any aspect of the Work; 
  
 shall relieve Contractor from its responsibility for the acts and omissions of its employees, architects, engineers and consultants (including, but not limited to,
Architect/Engineer) in the preparation of the Design Information or relieve Contractor in whole or in part of any duty, obligation or liability undertaken by Contractor in relation to the Work (including, but not limited to, Contractor’s
obligation to complete the Work in accordance with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions and Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions), whether under this Agreement or otherwise, or
diminish or vary any such duty, obligation or liability, whether by way of contribution or otherwise; provided that nothing in this Section 8.2.4 shall exclude or otherwise affect any right of the Contractor to be discharged from its
obligations under the Contract. The Drawings and Specifications shall be adequately prepared by or on behalf of Contractor such as to be approved for use by all authorities having jurisdiction over the Original Project or Expansion Project
construction without undue delay to the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable). 
  
 8.2.5 No Variation. If any Design Information does not comply with or is inconsistent with the Original Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable), there will be no increase in either the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price or adjustment to the Contract Time awarded in respect of the time taken for, or other circumstances whatsoever surrounding, approval being given or withheld by the Owner’s Representative in relation to such Design Information, or the
subsequent carrying out of the works of construction the subject thereof. 
  
 8.2.6 Work to Comply with Design Information. Contractor shall execute the Work strictly in accordance with the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion Project

Owner’s Design), as such plans, drawings, specifications and other documents may be added to or modified from time to time (collectively, the “Design Documents”), whether created by the Contractor, Architect/Engineer or their
respective consultants or engineers as instruments of service, and that the Design Documents do not infringe any copyright held by third parties. Contractor hereby transfers to Owner or Owner’s assigns, to the fullest extent possible under
applicable Laws and upon the payment by Owner of the applicable monthly progress payment corresponding thereto, all of Contractor’s right, title and interest (including, but not limited to, the copyright thereto and all other intellectual
property therein and all rights and privileges pertaining thereto) in and to the Design Documents. Owner shall have the right to use all of the Design Documents for any purpose whatsoever, including, but not limited to, completion of the Project (or
any portion thereof) by others or use on other projects, upon termination of this Contract, without notice to or further compensation to Contractor, Architect/Engineer or any other party. Contractor shall not use, and shall ensure that
Architect/Engineer shall not use, the Design Documents on other projects or disclose the contents of the Design Documents to other parties without the prior written consent of Owner in each instance. Contractor shall deliver the Design Documents to
Owner in a timely manner. Subject to Section 8.2.12, Contractor, Architect/Engineer and their respective consultants and engineers shall be permitted to retain copies of the Design Documents as necessary to perform their respective
services in connection with the Project. 
  
 (b)
Contractor hereby further represents and warrants that it has received or will receive all necessary licenses and consents in respect of any copyright, design rights and other proprietary rights that are required from any other person or entity
(except Owner’s Consultants) in connection with the construction, operation, maintenance, adjustment or repair of the Work; that all such licenses, consents and rights are or will be in full force and effect; and that such licenses, consents
and rights permit the Owner to operate and maintain the Work in perpetuity free of charge and without interference from any third party, and the Contractor shall indemnify Owner from any and all losses, claims, costs and liabilities sustained or
incurred by Owner to any such person in respect thereof. 
  
 (c) Contractor covenants that the Design Information does not, and its use will not, infringe the rights of any third party. 
  
 (d) Contractor shall be liable for all errors and omissions in, and copyright infringement by, the Design Documents and shall cause
Architect/Engineer to 

  

 89 








 
perform, at Architect/Engineer’s sole cost and expense, such architectural and engineering services as may be required to correct or remedy such errors
or omissions. The foregoing shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights that Owner may have hereunder or at law or in equity. 
  
 (e) Contractor shall indemnify Owner against any penalties and liability of every kind for Contractor’s breach of the covenants
contained in this Section 8.2.8 whether such penalty or liability shall arise before or after Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion (as applicable). The provisions of this Section 8.2.8 shall

 8.2.11 Design Responsibility for Drawings. Where any part of the Work has been designed by or on behalf of Owner, including,
but not limited to, the Drawings and Specifications prepared by Owner’s Consultants, and that design has been included in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price
Premises and Assumptions (as applicable), Contractor shall check the design and confirm in a timely manner that it conforms to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price
Premises and Assumptions (as applicable). 
  
 8.2.12 Return of Design Information and Other Documents. At the completion of this Contract or, at Owner’s election, the portion of this Contract relating to the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable),
Contractor shall hand over to Owner all Design Information in its or its Subcontractors’ or Vendors’ possession (or related only to the Original Project or Expansion Project if requested by Owner) and return to Owner all documents,
drawings, specifications and designs provided by Owner under this Contract (or related only to the Original Project or Expansion Project if requested by Owner). 
  
 8.2.13 Drawings from Subcontractors. Contractor shall include in each Subcontract a
requirement that the Subcontractor, at its own cost and expense, must furnish all Design Information within the scope of such Subcontract. The Owner Representative’s review of such Design Information delivered by the Subcontractor shall not
relieve Contractor or the Subcontractor from responsibility for deviations from the Contract Documents, Specifications and/or Drawings, nor shall it relieve Contractor from 

  

 90 








 
responsibility for errors and/or omissions. Contractor shall make, and shall cause Subcontractor to make, any changes required by the Owner’s
Representative. 
  
 ARTICLE IX. 
 SUBCONTRACTORS AND VENDORS 
  
 9.1 Subcontractors and Vendors. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Contractor shall be responsible for the performance of
Subcontractors and Vendors of every tier to the same extent as if performed by Contractor on a direct basis, including coordination of those portions of the Work performed by Subcontractors and Vendors. 
  
 9.2 Consent To Use Proposed Subcontractors and Vendors. 
  
 9.2.1 To the extent practicable, Contractor shall
propose a minimum of three (3) qualified lump sum or cost of the work plus a fee bidders for each element of the Work to be performed by Subcontractors and Vendors (including those who are to furnish materials or equipment fabricated to a
special design). Owner shall, within five (5) calendar days after receipt thereof, reply to Contractor stating whether or not Owner has a reasonable objection to any such proposed person or entity. Owner’s failure to reply in writing to
Contractor’s proposed list within ten (10) calendar days after the receipt thereof shall constitute Owner’s acceptance of such list. Owner’s consent with respect to any Subcontractor or Vendor pursuant to this Article 9
shall not in any way relieve the Contractor from its obligations to fully manage, administer and assure that the Subcontractor complies with the requirements of the Contract Documents, including all dates identified in the Original Project Schedule
or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable). 
  
 9.2.2 Contractor shall analyze all of the bids for each element of the Work and shall make a recommendation to the Owner as to which bid should be selected. Owner shall then make the selection with assistance from the Contractor
within fifteen (15) days following receipt of Contractor’s recommendation (and if Owner fails to respond within said fifteen (15) day period, then the bid recommended by Contractor shall be deemed approved by Owner). In the event the
Subcontractor chosen by Owner is different from the Subcontractor recommended by Contractor, and the bid amount from the Subcontractor chosen by Owner exceeds by the lesser of 5% or US$25,000 the bid amount from the Subcontractor recommended by
Contractor, such bid difference in excess of the lesser of said 5% or US$25,000 shall be cause for an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) (or Owner may choose to
apply amounts from the Original Project Owner Contingency or Expansion Project Owner Contingency (as applicable) without an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, respectively)
provided that the bid recommended by Contractor was substantially in compliance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. 
  

 91 








 9.3 Award of Subcontracts and Purchase Orders. Contractor shall furnish Owner and Owner’s
Lenders with a copy of Contractor’s proposed forms for use as subcontracts and purchase orders (which includes professional services agreements) for Owner’s review and approval prior to Contractor’s use thereof, and Contractor shall
only enter into those subcontracts approved by Owner in writing, without material modification; provided, however, subcontracts and purchase orders which do not have a contract value in excess of HK$2,000,000 individually, and otherwise are in
accordance with the Contract Documents, shall not require Owner’s prior written approval. Failure by Owner to disapprove in writing a subcontract or purchase order submitted by Contractor within fifteen (15) days after Owner’s receipt
thereof shall be deemed to constitute Owner’s approval of such subcontract or purchase order. Contractor shall furnish to Owner a copy of each subcontract and purchase order it enters into in connection with the Work within ten
(10) calendar days after execution of such subcontract or purchase order. All subcontracts and purchase orders shall require all Subcontractors and Vendors to assume toward Contractor the same legal obligations and responsibilities which
Contractor assumes toward Owner in this Contract, including requiring the indemnitees provided in Article 14 hereof, except as specifically provided otherwise in the Contract Documents or approved by Owner in writing. Owner recognizes
that under certain circumstances it will not be possible to obtain all such flow-down provisions (including the indemnitees) in a particular subcontract or purchase order. Owner agrees to review in good faith a request by Contractor for a waiver of
the requirement that a particular subcontract or purchase order must include any such flow-down provision that Contractor is unable, using its best efforts, to so obtain. All subcontracts and purchase orders shall (a) require that the
subcontract may not be assigned by the Subcontractor or Vendor but shall permit the assignment of the subcontract or purchase order by Contractor to Owner or a third party designated by Owner, including Owner’s Lenders, as provided in
Section 9.8 and Article 21 of this Agreement, (b) require that the Subcontractors and Vendors shall not have the right to assign the whole or any part of the benefit of the subcontracts or purchase orders or to sublet or
further subcontract the whole or any part of the Work to be performed under the subcontract or purchase order without the prior written consent of Owner and Contractor, (c) provide that any warranties contained or referenced therein shall run
to the benefit of and be enforceable by Owner and Owner’s Lenders, (d) provide for the applicable retentions specified in Section 5.6.3. Contractor shall establish and implement a system to monitor Subcontractors and Vendors to
ensure that they comply with the requirements of this Section 9.3. Contractor shall not waive or fail to exercise any material or significant right or remedy under any subcontract or waive any material or significant default under any
subcontract or purchase order with a contract value in excess of HK$500,000 without Owner’s prior written approval. Contractor, the Subcontractors and the Vendors shall be subject to audit by the Owner’s Representative to ensure compliance
with the requirements of this Agreement. If any Subcontractor or Vendor is found to be assigning, subletting or subcontracting all or any part of the Work under its subcontract or purchase order without the prior approval of Owner, Contractor shall
immediately notify Owner thereof and shall, if the circumstances are such that the Work has been or is likely to be affected, as determined by Owner in its sole discretion, either remedy such situation (i.e., put an end to such assignment,
subletting or 

  

 92 








 
subcontracting) or remove the offending Subcontractor or Vendor from the Project (and if Contractor fails to effect such remedy or removal, Owner shall have
the right to remove the offending Subcontractor or Vendor from the Project), unless Owner shall agree otherwise in writing. In such case, Contractor shall be fully responsible for finding a suitable replacement, and the costs involved in making such
replacement shall not be the basis for a Change Order, increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) or extension of the Contract Time. 
  
 9.4 Subcontractors and Vendors Designated By Owner. Contractor shall
not be required to contract with a Subcontractor or Vendor to whom Contractor has a reasonable objection, provided that the reason for such objection is identified to Owner in writing within five (5) calendar days of Owner’s designation
thereof. 
  
 9.5 Payments to Subcontractors from the
Contractor. Contractor agrees to pay each Subcontractor and Vendor within five (5) calendar days of receipt of each progress payment from Owner an amount equal to the amount received by the Contractor from Owner for the purpose of paying
the related Subcontractor or Vendor, as set forth in the applicable Application for Progress Payment. Contractor further agrees to require each Subcontractor to make similar payments to its Subcontractors and Vendors. The obligation of Contractor to
pay Subcontractors and Vendors (and their obligation to pay their Subcontractors and Vendors) is an independent obligation from the obligation of Owner to make payment to Contractor. Owner shall have no obligation to pay or to see to the payment of
any monies to any Subcontractor or Vendor. 
  
 9.6
Subcontractor and Vendor Replacements. Contractor shall not replace any Subcontractor or Vendor who has been approved by Owner, unless Owner gives prior written approval to the replacement, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. 
  
 9.7 Communications With Subcontractors and
Vendors. In cooperation with, and upon notice to Contractor, Owner and Owner’s Lenders shall have the right at any time and from time to time to contact Contractor’s Subcontractors and Vendors to discuss the progress of their portion
of the Work. Contractor shall have the right to be present at the time of any such direct communications, excepting only if Contractor is in default under the Contract or unreasonably refuses to attend meetings after Owner has given Contractor
reasonable advance notice and opportunity to be present. Notwithstanding such rights of direct communication, Contractor shall be responsible and liable to Owner for all acts or omissions of Subcontractors and Vendors and their respective agents and
employees and any other person performing any of the Work under an agreement with Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor. 
  
 9.8 Assignment. Contractor hereby assigns to Owner all its interest in all subcontract agreements and purchase orders now existing or hereafter
entered into by Contractor for performance of any part of the Work, which assignment will be effective only 

  

 93 








 
upon (a) the termination by Owner of this Agreement or the portion of the Work to which the applicable subcontracts or purchase orders relate or
(b) the occurrence of any event described in Section 17.1.2.1, and acceptance by Owner in writing of such assignment, and only as to those subcontract agreements and purchase orders that Owner designates in said writing. Such
assignment may not be withdrawn by Contractor prior to expiration of the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable), and Owner may accept said assignment at any time after the termination
of this Agreement prior to expiration of the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable). Upon such acceptance by Owner: (i) Contractor shall promptly furnish to Owner the originals or
copies of the designated subcontract agreements and purchase orders, and (ii) Owner shall only be required to compensate the designated Subcontractor(s) or Vendor(s) for compensation accruing to same for Work done or materials delivered from
and after the date as of which Owner accepts assignment of the subcontract agreement(s) or purchase order(s) in writing (and Contractor shall not be responsible and Owner shall indemnify and hold Contractor harmless for such Work done or materials
delivered from and after such date or for compensating such Subcontractor(s) or Vendor(s) therefor). All sums due and owing by Contractor to the designated Subcontractor(s) or Vendor(s) for Work performed or material supplied prior to the date as of
which Owner accepts in writing the subcontract agreement(s) or purchase order(s), and all other obligations of Contractor accruing prior to Owner’s written acceptance of such assignment, shall constitute a debt and an obligation solely between
such Subcontractor(s) or Vendor(s) and Contractor, and Owner shall have no liability with respect such sums or any other obligations of Contractor. It is further agreed that all subcontract agreements and purchase orders shall provide that they are
freely assignable by Contractor to Owner and Owner’s assigns (including Owner’s Lenders) under the terms and conditions stated in this Section 9.8 and that all such Subcontractors and Vendors shall continue to perform their
Work for Owner (or Owner’s Lenders as the case may be) pursuant to the terms of the respective subcontract or purchase order. Owner agrees not to accept such assignment solely for the purpose of intentionally causing Contractor harm and in bad
faith. 
  
 ARTICLE X. 
 WARRANTY OBLIGATIONS 
  
 10.1 Contractor’s Warranty. Contractor represents and warrants to Owner that (a) the Work, whether performed by Contractor’s own
personnel or by any Subcontractors or Vendors, shall be first class in quality, free from all defects whatsoever (including, without limitation, patent, latent or developed defects or inherent vice), commensurate with construction practices and
quality applicable to first class projects associated with luxury resorts, and in strict conformance with the Contract Documents (including, but not limited to, the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions or Expansion
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price Premises and Assumptions (as applicable)), and (b) all materials, appliances, mechanical devices, equipment and supplies incorporated into the Work shall be new and of such quality to strictly meet or exceed the
Specifications and requirements of the Contract Documents. If requested by Owner at any time and from 

  

 94 








 
time to time, Contractor will furnish satisfactory evidence to Owner as to the kind and quality of materials, appliances, mechanical devices, equipment and
supplies. All Work not conforming to the requirements of this Section (including, but not limited to, substitutions or deviations not properly approved and authorized by Owner in writing) shall be considered defective. 
  
 10.2 Contractor’s Defects Liability Period and Other Warranty
Periods. The “Original Project Defects Liability Period” shall commence upon the issuance of the Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion for the Original Project Work taken as a whole in accordance with this Agreement
and shall extend for a period of one (1) year from the date of issuance of such Certificate. The “Expansion Project Defects Liability Period” shall commence upon the issuance of the Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial
Completion for the Expansion Project Work taken as a whole in accordance with this Agreement and shall extend for a period of one (1) year from the date of issuance of such Certificate. A separate warranty shall exist for ten (10) years in
the case of watertightness and leakage, as provided in Section 10.4, and other warranties shall apply for such periods as are set forth in the applicable manufacturer’s warranties or as may be required by applicable Laws. If any
major repair or replacement is made or other major corrective work or service is performed pursuant to any warranty obligation under this Contract during the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as
applicable), the applicable warranty for the related repair, replacement or corrective work shall be automatically extended by one (1) year from the date of completion of such repair, replacement or corrective work, but in no event shall the
total of all extensions with respect to such particular warranty exceed two (2) years. Nothing contained in this Article 10 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations which Contractor
might have under the Contract Documents or under applicable Law, in equity or otherwise, or reduce the period of any other similar warranty or guaranty that may apply at law, in equity or otherwise to the Work. Contractor shall ensure that all
warranties from Subcontractors and Vendors in respect of subcontracted work or the supply of any materials forming a part of the Work that extend beyond the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as
applicable) are capable of being assigned by Contractor to Owner, and Contractor shall, within fourteen (14) days after the earlier to occur of the termination of this Agreement or the expiration of the Original Project Defects Liability Period
or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable), assign the benefit of all such warranties to Owner. Contractor shall remain liable and obligated to enforce such warranties on behalf of Owner until the end of the Original Project
Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable), even if such warranties extend beyond the end of the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable).

  
 10.3 Compliance With Contract Documents. Upon receipt
of Owner’s written notice at any time during the course of the Work, during the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable) or during any other warranty period, and during any longer
period of time as may be prescribed by any 

  

 95 








 
applicable Laws or other applicable terms, Contractor shall promptly perform all corrective services (including, but not limited to, furnishing all labor,
materials, equipment and other services at the Site and elsewhere) to Owner’s satisfaction as may be necessary to remedy any defective workmanship or omissions in the Contractor’s Work, including, but not limited to, promptly correct or
replace any Work rejected by Owner in accordance with the Contract Documents or which is incomplete, defective or fails to conform to the Contract Documents, whether observed before or after Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project
Final Company of the applicable portion of the Work and whether or not fabricated, installed, or completed. When any defects, omissions, corrective services, Original Project Punch List Items or Expansion Project Punch List Items (as applicable) or
other faults which Owner may have required Contractor to make good shall have been satisfactorily completed, Owner shall, upon request, issue a written statement to that effect, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, and completion of
making good such defects, omissions, corrective services, Original Project Punch List Items or Expansion Project Punch List Items (as applicable) or other faults shall be deemed for all purposes under this Agreement to have taken place on the date
of such written statement. Contractor’s compliance with its obligations as stated in this Article 10, and Owner’s acceptance of such corrective services, shall at all times be determined by ascertaining whether Contractor has
achieved strict compliance to Owner’s reasonable satisfaction with both the written and reasonably inferable requirements contained in the Contract Documents. 
  
 10.4 Warranty Costs. All costs incurred by Contractor in fulfilling Contractor’s remedial defects liability
obligations and/or warranty obligations as set forth on this Article 10 shall be at Contractor’s sole cost and expense. Contractor shall also, as part of Contractor’s warranty and guarantee, repair or replace any other damaged
components, material, finishes, furnishings and other Work or portions of the Project or other property damaged, affected or otherwise made necessary by or resulting from such defective, non-conforming or incomplete Work, to return the same to their
original condition. In addition, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if within ten (10) years after Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) any portion of
the respective Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (including, but not limited to, any roof and any walls) is not watertight and leakproof at every point and in every area (except where leaks can be attributed to damage to such Work
proximately caused by extraordinary, external forces beyond Contractor’s control and which Contractor could not reasonably have anticipated), Contractor shall, immediately upon notification by Owner of water penetration, determine the source of
water penetration and, at Contractor’s own expense, do any work necessary to make such Work watertight. 
  
 10.5 Timeliness of Corrective Services. Contractor shall use all reasonable efforts to fully perform all warranty and corrective services to
Owner’s satisfaction within five (5) calendar days of the receipt of Owner’s written notice of defective workmanship. If the corrective services require more than five (5) calendar days for completion, Contractor shall submit,
within five (5) calendar days of receipt of Owner’s written notice, a comprehensive written proposal itemizing all corrective actions necessary which Contractor 

  

 96 








 
is prepared to and shall immediately undertake and diligently pursue to enable the Work to achieve strict compliance with the Contract Documents, including
the latest Drawings and Specifications. In performing such corrective Work, Contractor shall perform its Work so as to cause the least inconvenience and disruption to Owner’s business which may require performance of Work at hours when
Owner’s business is least active. Additionally, the provisions of Section 7.6 and 7.7 of this Agreement relating to cooperation with Owner, access, avoidance of disruption and related matters as set forth therein shall also
apply to the performance of any warranty related work. 
  
 10.6
Warranty Survival. Contractor’s Original Project Defects Liability Period and Expansion Project Defects Liability Period obligations and other warranty obligations set forth in this Article 10 shall apply to Work done by
Subcontractors or Vendors, as well as to Work done by direct employees of Contractor, and such provisions shall survive acceptance of the Work and survive any termination of the Contract and Contractor shall be responsible to fully indemnify and
hold Owner harmless from any and all liens, claims, lawsuits, costs and expenses which may arise out of the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its warranty obligations pursuant to this Contract. 
  
 10.7 Owner’s Right To Correct. In the event Contractor fails to
timely correct incomplete, nonconforming or defective Work following Owner’s written notice described in Section 10.5 above, Owner shall have the right to correct or arrange for the correction of any defects or omissions in the
Work. The Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be reduced by the amount of all costs incurred by Owner in correcting such defective Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work
respectively, including, but not limited to, additional costs for redesigns by the Architect/Engineer and other design consultants, replacement contractors, materials, equipment and all services provided by Owner’s personnel; provided that if
the unspent balance of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) is insufficient to cover such amount, then, at Owner’s election, Contractor shall on demand pay the difference to
Owner, or Owner shall withhold and offset all costs incurred during any such corrective work against any funds which are otherwise due or which may become payable to the Contractor. If payments then or thereafter due to Contractor are not sufficient
to cover such amounts, Contractor shall on demand pay the difference to Owner. 
  
 10.8 Owner’s Right to Supplement Work of Contractor. If the Contractor violates or breaches any of the terms, conditions or covenants of the Contract, then Owner may, without prejudice to any other remedy
it may have and following the expiration of any applicable cure periods, provide such reasonable labor and materials as are reasonably necessary to remedy such deficiency including the right to hire another contractor to supplement the Work of the
Contractor and deduct all costs thereof from any money due or thereafter becoming due to the Contractor and reduce the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) by all such amounts. If
the unspent balance of the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or 

  

 97 








 
Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) is insufficient to cover such amount, Contractor shall on demand pay the difference to Owner.

  
 10.9 Acceptance of Non-Conforming Work. Owner may, in
its sole discretion, elect to accept a part of the Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. In such case, the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as
applicable) shall be reduced as appropriate and equitable. Owner’s acceptance of any non-conforming Work shall not waive or otherwise affect Owner’s right to demand that Contractor correct any other defects or areas of non-conforming Work.

  
 10.10 Warranty Exclusions. Contractor’s warranty
obligations shall not apply to defects caused by ordinary wear and tear, insufficient maintenance or improper operation or use by Owner. 
  
 10.11 Written Guaranty. At Owner’s request, Contractor shall require Subcontractors and Vendors to enter into a warranty agreement directly
with Owner in a form reasonably acceptable to Owner. Such guarantees and warranties to be provided by Subcontractors or Vendors shall be in writing on the letterhead of the respective Subcontractor or Vendor, shall be in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to Owner, and shall be signed jointly by Contractor and such Subcontractor or Vendor. The ten (10) year Contractor warranties specified in Section 10.2 as to watertightness and leakage shall be in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Owner and shall also be in writing on Contractor’s letterhead and signed by Contractor (the parties acknowledging that the warranty of Contractor with respect to the Original Project Defects Liability Period
and Expansion Project Defects Liability Period (as applicable) shall be governed by the provisions of this Agreement without a separate written warranty). Copies of all Subcontractor and Vendor guarantees and warranties, as well as the original
Contractor’s watertightness and leakage warranty, shall be furnished to Owner upon Substantial Completion. Prior to the expiration of the Original Project Defects Liability Period or Expansion Projects Defects Liability Period (as applicable)
and as a condition to the Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment, respectively, Contractor shall assign to Owner all applicable Subcontractor and Vendor guarantees and warranties and deliver to Owner the originals thereof.
Owner shall, in addition to the guarantees and warranties provided in this Article 10, also have the benefit of, and Contractor shall assign to Owner in form and substance satisfactory to Owner, all warranties, service life policies,
indemnitees and guarantees with respect to any and all materials, appliances, mechanical devices, supplies and equipment incorporated into the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable) and given by the manufacturer, retailer,
or other supplier, which shall be supplied and assigned to Owner promptly after such is received by or becomes available to Contractor and as a condition to Original Project Final Payment or Expansion Project Final Payment, respectively. Further, at
Owner’s request, after the expiration of the Defects Liability Period, Contractor shall assist Owner in enforcing all such warranties, guarantees, policies and indemnitees. 
  

 98 








 ARTICLE XI. 
 SCHEDULING, DELAYS AND ACCELERATION 
  
 11.1 Owner’s Right to Modify. Notwithstanding the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule, Owner has the right, upon notice to Contractor, to modify or otherwise change the sequence of the
Work and Contractor shall comply therewith and adjust schedules accordingly. If Contractor believes such modification or change causes a delay or acceleration in the completion of the Work, Contractor shall provide written notice to Owner in
accordance with Section 11.6 below. Any such modifications or changes in sequence applies only to scheduling and shall not be construed to mean a change in the method or means employed by Contractor for the execution of the Work.

  
 11.2 Project Schedule. Within five (5) days after
receipt of the Original Project Notice to Proceed or Expansion Project Date of Commencement (as applicable), Contractor shall furnish a detailed update of the Original Project Schedule attached hereto as Attachment 2 of Exhibit B or
Expansion Project Schedule attached hereto as Attachment 5 of Exhibit B describing the activities to be accomplished and their dependency relationships, for approval by Owner. The Original Project Schedule shall include an agreed upon
design schedule setting forth time periods for Contractor to require Architect/Engineer to produce Drawings for the Original Project Work, time periods when Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors on the Original Project must provide
their respective documents and services, and an agreed upon construction schedule setting forth the Original Project Interim Milestone Dates. The Expansion Project Schedule shall include an agreed upon design schedule setting forth time periods for
Contractor to require Architect/Engineer to produce Drawings for the Expansion Project Work, time periods when Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors on the Expansion Project must provide their respective documents and services, and
an agreed upon construction schedule setting forth the Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates. Contractor’s performance will be measured against the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable). The Original
Project Schedule and Expansion Project Schedule (and any revisions thereto) shall be updated and revised at appropriate intervals as reasonably required by Owner or the current and projected conditions of the Original Project Work or Expansion
Project Work (as applicable) and Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable), shall designate those items on the critical path of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work (as applicable), shall be related to the entire Original
Project or Expansion Project (as applicable) to the extent required by the Contract Documents, shall indicate dates necessary to vacate various work areas, and shall provide for expeditious and practicable execution of the Work. 
  
 11.3 Schedule Updates. Contractor shall submit a “Schedule
Update” along with each monthly Application For Progress Payment for comparison to the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable). The first Schedule Update shall be dated and identified as “Schedule
Update No. 1” and shall identify the then current status of all major Original Work or Expansion Work activities (as applicable) identified in the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable). All Schedule


  

 99 








 
Updates shall include a comprehensive narrative setting forth (i) actual activity completion dates, (ii) the effect on the Original Project
Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable) of any delays in any activities in progress and/or the impact of known or suspected delays which are expected to effect future Work, (iii) the effect of Changes on the Original Project
Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable), (iv) all actual and potential variances between latest Schedule Update and probable actual completion dates (including completion dates related to the Contract Time and/or relevant
Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates); (v) all Work activities not started or completed in accordance with the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable), and
(vi) recommendations of specific Recovery Plans to Owner which may be necessary to achieve the Contract Time and/or relevant Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates. All subsequent Schedule Updates
shall be dated and numbered sequentially. In addition, each Schedule Update shall be clearly labeled to state the effective date of the current status information contained therein. 
  
 11.4 Events of Force Majeure. “Force Majeure” means fires, explosions, strikes being conducted on an
industry-wide basis and that are not limited to the Project, unusually adverse weather conditions, war (whether war be declared or not), hostilities, invasion, riot, civil insurrection, civil war, terrorist acts, ionising radiation, contamination by
radioactivity on the Site from any nuclear fuel, radioactive toxic explosive or nuclear explosive, epidemics, quarantine, plague, and any other event beyond the reasonable control of Contractor (other than bad weather generally or insufficiency of
funds, except to the extent such insufficiency is due to the failure of Owner to pay Costs of the Work pursuant to an approved Application for Progress Payment). “Force Majeure Delay” means a delay due to Force Majeure that, in each
case, (a) materially adversely affects the performance by Contractor of its obligations hereunder, (b) based on Contractor’s extensive experience in constructing projects of similar scope and complexity in similar types of locations
and Contractor’s representations contained in the Contract Documents, is not reasonably foreseeable and is beyond Contractor’s reasonable control, (c) despite the exercise of reasonable diligence, cannot be prevented, avoided or
removed by Contractor and is not attributable to the negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of Contractor, and (d) is not the result of the failure of Contractor to perform any of its obligations under any of the Contract Documents.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Force Majeure Delay shall not be deemed to have occurred unless Contractor has notified Owner of such occurrence of Force Majeure within three (3) days after such occurrence and has provided Owner with the
details of such event and the length of the anticipated delay within an additional five (5) days thereafter. During the occurrence and continuance of a Force Majeure Delay, the affected party shall be excused from performance of its obligations
under this Agreement to the extent the Force Majeure prevents such party from performing such obligations, except for Owner’s obligation to make timely payment of amounts properly due and payable to Contractor. 
  

 100 








 11.5 Owner Delay. As used in this Agreement, the term “Owner Delay” means any
actual delay in the critical path of Contractor’s Work that is caused by Owner, Owner’s Lenders or any of Owner’s Consultants or Owner’s Contractors as a result of their acts or omissions, but only to the extent not the fault of
Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor or any party for which any of them is responsible or liable at law or under the Contract). Owner and Contractor agree to use best efforts to provide all information and documentation reasonably required by
Owner’s Lenders in order for Owner’s Lenders to render approvals under this Agreement. In addition to and without derogation of Contractor’s rights with respect to extensions of the Contract Time set forth in Section 11.6,
Owner may, in its sole and absolute discretion, at any time and from time to time, whether before or after Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion, prospectively or retrospectively, and for any reason, whether for
Owner’s sole benefit or otherwise (including, without limitation, in connection with a delay caused solely by Owner), grant to Contractor an extension of the time specified in this Agreement for the performance by Contractor of any of its
covenants or obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Contract Documents (including, without limitation, the Original Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion (as
applicable) and the Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates (as applicable)). 
  
 11.6 Extensions of Time and Guaranteed Maximum Price Increases for Delay. 
  
 11.6.1 To the extent the Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work by a
Permissible Delay, then the Contract Time shall be reasonably extended and the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) increased (or a portion of the Owner Contingency applied if
available), if at all, in accordance with the procedures described in this Section 11.6 and in Article 18 below. Such extension and/or increase shall be pursuant to a Change Order if the delay is a Permissible Delay or where
otherwise agreed by Owner and Contractor. In all other cases, the extension and/or increase shall be pursuant to a Construction Change Directive. 
  
 11.6.2 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Contract Documents, any item that cannot be demonstrated as being on or affecting
the critical path of the Work shall not result in an extension of time to perform the Work or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) in the event such item is
delayed. Further, to the extent any Permissible Delay could have been prevented or reduced if Contractor had, consistent with the terms of the Contract Documents, performed its duties and responsibilities under the Contract Documents, such delay
will not entitle Contractor to an extension of the Contract Time and/or increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) (except for that portion, if any, of such Permissible
Delay which could not have been mitigated or reduced consistent with the 

  

 101 








 
foregoing and subject to the other requirements of the Contract Documents, including this Section 11.6). 
  
 11.6.3 Extensions of the Contract Time for the Work
and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) will be authorized by Owner only if (a) Contractor has been actually and necessarily delayed in meeting the
Original Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion (as applicable) by a cause which constitutes a Permissible Delay, or a Change to the Work initiated by the Owner; (b) the
completion of the Work by the applicable Original Project Interim Milestone Date or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Date (as applicable) or the total Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work by the Original Project Guaranteed Date of
Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion, respectively, is actually and necessarily delayed by such cause; and (c) Contractor has met any notice requirements set forth in the Contract Documents for
it to be entitled to any extension of time or increased costs. All extensions of time and/or increases in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) to which Contractor is entitled
hereunder will be confirmed by Change Order. 
  
 11.6.4 The period of any extension of time for the delay shall be only that which is necessary to make up the time actually lost for a Work item or items identifiable on the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule as
being on or affecting the critical path at the time in which the delay occurs. 
  
 11.6.5 The amount of increase, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price (as applicable) due to a delay shall be equal to the additional cost actually, reasonably and necessarily incurred by Contractor in Cost of the Work items (a) as a result of continuing to maintain dedicated personnel, materials and
equipment at the Site at Owner’s request during such delay and (b) other reasonable and unavoidable Costs of the Work, if any, which are directly related to any subsequent re-mobilization of the delayed Work caused solely by such delay,
but (as to both of the foregoing (a) and (b)), only if and to the extent such delay exceeds a period of thirty (30) days in the aggregate following commencement of the Work, and to the extent such actions are necessary, if at all, to be
performed by Contractor to maintain the extended Contract Time and Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable) after taking into account any extension of time as provided for in this Section 11.6. 

 
 11.6.6 Contractor shall not be entitled to receive
a separate extension of time and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for each of several causes of delay operating concurrently but only for the actual period
of delay in completion of the Work irrespective of the number of causes contributing to produce such delay. If one of several causes of delay operating concurrently results from any act, fault or omission of Contractor or 

  

 102 








 
Subcontractor or for which Contractor or Subcontractor is responsible, and would of itself, irrespective of the concurrent causes, have delayed the Work, no
extension of time and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) will be allowed to the extent of the period of delay resulting from such act, fault or omission.
Further all such extensions and increases shall be netted out with any reductions in Contract Time and/or Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), before implementing any such extension
or increase. 
  
 11.6.7 As a condition
precedent to the granting of an extension of time or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), Contractor shall use best efforts to give Owner immediate written notice
(but in any event shall give such written notice to Owner within thirty (30) calendar days) after the time when Contractor knows of any cause which might result in delay, for which it may claim an extension of time and/or an increase in the
Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), including those causes of which Owner has knowledge, specifically stating in such notice that an extension and/or an increase in the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) is or may be claimed, and identifying such cause and describing, as fully as practicable, at that time, the nature and expected duration of the delay and
its effect on the completion of that part of the Work identified in the notice. 
  
 11.6.8 Since the possible necessity for an extension of time and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or
Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) may materially alter the scheduling plans, and other actions of Owner and since, with sufficient notice, Owner may, if it should so elect, attempt to mitigate the effect of a delay for which
an extension of time and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) might be claimed, the giving of written notice as required above is of the essence of
Contractor’s obligations hereunder and failure of Contractor to give written notice as required above shall be a conclusive waiver of an extension of time and/or an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) for the cause of delay in question. 
  
 11.6.9 It shall in all cases be presumed that no extension, or further extension, of time and no increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as
applicable) is due unless Contractor shall affirmatively demonstrate the extent thereof to the reasonable satisfaction of Owner. Contractor shall maintain adequate records supporting any claim for an extension of time and/or increase in the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). 
  

 103 








 11.6.10 Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.6, if
pursuant to this Section 11.6 Contractor is entitled to an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), Owner shall have the right, in lieu of any increase, to
apply a portion of the Original Project Owner Contingency or Expansion Project Owner Contingency (as applicable and to the extent funds remain therein) to cover such increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) due to such delay covered by this Section 11.6. 
  
 11.7 Limitations. Contractor agrees for itself and, to the fullest extent allowed by applicable Laws, for its Subcontractors, and will use its best
efforts to require each Subcontractor to agree, that it will make no claim or claims against the Site, Project, Owner (or any party affiliated or associated with Owner or any assets of Owner), or Owner’s Lenders for damages or losses incurred
as a result of or arising out of delays in the Work, including but not limited to any Permissible Delay, except as provided in Section 11.6. Contractor acknowledges that (a) an extension of the Contract Time, and/or (b) an
increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), strictly in accordance with Section 11.6 above, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for Contractor and all
Subcontractors and Vendors for all delays. Contractor agrees to accept such extensions at no additional cost to Owner (except as provided in this Section 11.7), and waives and relinquishes any right to separate claims of any kind for any
delays. Further, the limitations in Section 17.4 hereof shall also apply to any delay. 
  
 11.8 Recovery Plans. The Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) is based on
Contractor working as many hours as necessary to properly perform the Work and achieve the Original Project Schedule and Expansion Project Schedule requirements. “Recovery Plan” means a detailed narrative explanation clearly stating
the scope and extent of any and all resource loading, activity re-sequencing and other acceleration activities required for all affected elements of the Work to enable Contractor to either: (a) complete the respective Original Project Interim
Milestones or Expansion Project Interim Milestones by the respective Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates; or (b) obtain Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial
Completion (as applicable) within the applicable Contract Time. 
  
 11.8.1 If Owner determines at any time based on reasonable evidence that Contractor is behind schedule or is otherwise in jeopardy of failing to complete any Original Project Interim Milestones or Expansion
Project Interim Milestones by the applicable respective Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates or the Work within the Contract Time, Owner shall issue a written notice to Contractor identifying areas of
concern and requiring that Contractor provide a Recovery Plan to Owner. 
  

 104 








 11.8.2 Upon receipt of Owner’s notice, Contractor shall immediately undertake
all reasonably available steps to overcome or mitigate against the adverse effects of all delays identified by Owner. Contractor’s failure to undertake all reasonably available steps to mitigate the effects of such delays shall constitute a
waiver of Contractor’s right to claim relief for any schedule extensions and/or additional compensation to the extent that Contractor’s failure to act timely contributed to such delays. 
  
 11.8.3 Contractor shall, within seven
(7) calendar days after receipt of Owner’s notice, provide its Recovery Plan to Owner notwithstanding whether or not Contractor disputes responsibility for the cause(s) of such delays. 
  
 11.8.4 Within seven (7) calendar days after
submission of the Recovery Plan by Contractor, Owner shall advise Contractor in writing whether or not to proceed with the Recovery Plan as submitted, or in accordance with reasonable revisions thereto established by Owner. 
  
 (a) If the delay addressed by the Recovery Plan is a
Permissible Delay, such notice to proceed shall be by an agreed Change Order in accordance with Section 11.6 and Article 18 (and Contractor shall be entitled to request an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price
or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) in accordance therewith). As part of such notice, Owner shall have the right to require Contractor to work its own construction crews and Subcontractors and other personnel overtime, and
to direct Contractor to take all other necessary reasonable action, including, but not limited to, increasing the number of personnel and implementing double shifts (provided the same does not result in the Contractor breaching any applicable labor
laws or regulations in Macau). Such overtime work and other actions shall continue until such time as the Work has progressed so that it complies with the stage of completion required by the then most recently Owner approved Original Project
Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable). 
  
 (b) If the delay addressed by the Recovery Plan is the result of any cause other than a Permissible Delay, such notice to proceed shall be by a Construction Change Directive in accordance with Section 11.6
and Article 18. As part of such notice, Owner shall have the right to require Contractor to work its own construction crews and Subcontractors and other personnel overtime, and to direct Contractor to take all other necessary action,
including, but not limited to, increasing the number of personnel and implementing double shifts (provided the same does not result in the Contractor breaching any applicable labor laws or regulations in Macau), all at no increase to the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). Such overtime work and other actions shall continue until such time as the Work 

  

 105 








 
has progressed so that it complies with the stage of completion required by the then most recently Owner approved Project Schedule. Additional costs incurred
due to such overtime work and other actions shall not result in any adjustment in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). 
  
 11.8.5 Intentionally Omitted. 
  
 11.8.6 Contractor acknowledges that Owner,
Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors must perform certain work and other tasks in connection with the Project (including, without limitation, the installation of certain FF&E and the training of Owner’s personnel)
(collectively, “Owner’s Pre-Opening Work”), and that the Owner’s Pre-Opening Work is to be completed concurrently with the Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as
applicable), so that the Casino, Hotel and other portions of the Project intended to be open to the general public, may be opened to the general public concurrently with the Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial
Completion (as applicable). Contractor further acknowledges that the ability of Owner, Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors to complete the applicable Owner’s Pre-Opening Work concurrently with the Original Project Substantial
Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) is dependent in part on Contractor’s achievement of certain Original Project Interim Milestones or Expansion Project Interim Milestones (as applicable) by a date that is
prior to the scheduled date of the Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) by a number of days that is not less than (i) in the case of the Original Project, the number of days between
the applicable Original Project Interim Milestone Dates and the Original Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion specified in the Original Project Schedule and (ii) in the case of the Expansion Project, the number of days between the
applicable Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates and the Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion specified in the Expansion Project Schedule. If Contractor fails to achieve any Original Project Interim Milestone or Expansion
Project Interim Milestone by the applicable Original Project Interim Milestone Date or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Date, respectively, and, as a result, Owner determines based on reasonable evidence that Owner’s Pre-Opening Work will
not be completed concurrently with the then-scheduled date of Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) (as mutually agreed upon by Owner and Contractor), Owner shall have the right, but not
the obligation, to formulate its own recovery plan (an “Owner Recovery Plan”) stating the scope and extent of any and all resource loading, activity re-sequencing and other acceleration activities with respect to Owner’s
Pre-Opening Work necessitated by any such delay. Owner and Contractor agree to meet to consult with each other regarding the scope and implementation of any such Owner Recovery Plan. If the delay addressed by an Owner Recovery Plan is the result of
any cause other than a Permissible Delay, Contractor shall be liable to Owner for all costs and expenses incurred by Owner, Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors in preparing and implementing such Owner Recovery Plan. 
  

 106 








 11.9 Accelerations for Owner’s Convenience 
  
 11.9.1 In the event Owner desires to accelerate the
Project Schedule for reasons other than delays caused by or attributable to the Contractor, Owner shall so notify Contractor in writing. 
  
 11.9.2 Upon receipt of such written instruction, Contractor shall require its personnel and its Subcontractors and Vendors to work
such overtime hours and/or to increase their respective work forces as are reasonably necessary to meet Owner’s acceleration goals. 
  
 11.9.3 In the event such an acceleration is ordered by Owner, Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment in the Original Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) determined in accordance with Article 18 of this Agreement. 
  
 11.10 Schedule Coordination 
  
 11.10.1 Contractor shall schedule and coordinate the performance of the Work by Contractor’s personnel, Subcontractors and
Vendors of any tier, and the performance of the Project-related work by Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors, in a manner that will enable Contractor to achieve Original Project Interim Milestones or Expansion Project Interim
Milestones by the respective Original Project Interim Milestone Dates or Expansion Project Interim Milestone Dates and completion within the Contract Time. Contractor acknowledges that at least a portion of the Work will be performed under joint
occupancy conditions at the Site. 
  
 11.10.2 Contractor shall cooperate with Owner, Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors so that both the Contractor’s Work and the work of others will progress smoothly with a minimum of disruptions and interference
to any party. 
  
 11.10.3 Contractor shall
schedule its Work and delivery of materials to comply with all reasonable requests and suggestions of Owner in order to maintain the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable) within the limitations of all existing Site
conditions and business operations of Owner. 
  
 11.10.4 Contractor shall use all best efforts to not utilize any labor, materials or means whose employment or utilization during the course of this Contract may tend to or in any way cause or result in strikes, work stoppages,
delays, suspension of Work or similar trouble by workman employed by its Subcontractors, or by any of the trades working in or about the Project and Site where Work is being performed under this Contract, or by other contractors or their
subcontractors pursuant to other contracts, or on any other project and project site or premises owned or operated by Owner. Any violation by Contractor of this requirement may be considered as proper and sufficient cause for declaring Contractor to
be 

  

 107 








 
in default, and for Owner to take action against Contractor as set forth in the Contract Documents. 
  
 11.10.5 In case of disagreements or disputes
regarding the schedule of Work by Owner’s Consultants and Owner’s Contractors or unnecessary interference to the Work caused by lack of cooperation between Owner’s Consultants or Owner’s Contractors and Contractor, Contractor
shall fully cooperate to resolve any such disputes. In case of disagreements or disputes between two or more contractors, Owner shall be consulted and Owner’s decisions as to proper methods for coordinating the Work shall be final, subject to
any rights or remedies of Contractor under this Agreement or applicable Law. 
  
 11.11 Flow-Down Provisions 
  
 11.11.1 Contractor shall include the requirements of Sections 11.1, 11.6 and 11.7, Sections 11.9 through 11.13, Article 14, Section 17.4, Article 19,
Sections 23.2, 24.2 and 24.16, and any other provisions of this Agreement required by Owner, in all of its subcontracts and purchase orders. As to sub-tier subcontracts and sub-tier purchase orders, Contractor shall use
reasonable efforts to require Subcontractors and Vendors with agreements totaling in excess of HK$2,000,000 to include the requirements of the Sections enumerated above in all sub-tier subcontracts and sub-tier purchase orders. 
  
 11.11.2 Contractor shall be responsible to fully
indemnify and hold Owner harmless from any and all liens, claims, lawsuits, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, which may arise out of either the failure of the Contractor to fulfill its obligations pursuant to this Article 11
and/or the Contractor’s failure to enforce the flow-down provisions as stated above. 
  
 11.12 Partial Occupancy Or Use. Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion(s) of the Work at any stage, provided that such occupancy and use shall not impede Contractor from completing
other portions of the Work. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Contract, any such partial occupancy or use shall not: (a) constitute final acceptance of any Work or be deemed Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project
Substantial Completion of such Work, or (b) relieve Contractor of responsibility for loss or damage because of or arising out of defects in, or malfunctioning of, any Work, material, or equipment, or from any other unfulfilled obligations or
responsibilities under the Contract Documents; provided, however, Contractor shall not be liable for damage caused by Owner or Owner’s Contractors or from vandalism or for ordinary wear and tear resulting from such partial occupancy and use.
Contractor shall cooperate fully with Owner, as Owner may reasonably request, in all aspects of Owner’s partial use and occupancy of the Work and Project, including, but not limited to, scheduling, allocation of utilities, access and storage,
and all other arrangements. 
  
 11.13 Timely Completion.
Contractor agrees to prosecute the Work and to require all trade contractors to prosecute the Work in a timely and proper method and 

  

 108 








 
manner so as to meet the dates reflected on the Original Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule (as applicable), including the Original Project
Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion. 
  
 ARTICLE XII. 
 SUBSTANTIAL AND FINAL COMPLETION 
  
 12.1 Substantial Completion Procedures and Requirements 
  
 12.1.1 Notice of Substantial Completion.
(A) “Original Project Substantial Completion” means the stage in the progress of the Original Project Work when (a) the Original Project is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents and all
applicable Laws to enable Owner to fully occupy and utilize the same for all of its intended purposes and can be open to the general public; (b) all Original Project systems included in the Original Project Work for such portion of the Original
Project (including, but not limited to, all life safety systems) are operational and functioning as designed and scheduled; (c) all instruction of Owner’s personnel in the operation of the Original Project systems included in such Original
Project Work has been completed; (d) all final finishes within the Contract applicable to such Original Project Work are in place; and (e) such Original Project Work is otherwise satisfactory to Owner in accordance with the Contract
Documents. (B) “Expansion Project Substantial Completion” means the stage in the progress of the Expansion Project Work when (a) the Expansion Project is sufficiently complete in accordance with the
Contract Documents and all applicable Laws to enable Owner to fully occupy and utilize the same for all of its intended purposes and can be open to the general public; (b) all Expansion Project systems included in the Expansion
Project Work for such portion of the Expansion Project (including, but not limited to, all life safety systems) are operational and functioning as designed and scheduled; (c) all instruction of Owner’s personnel in the operation of
the Expansion Project systems included in such Expansion Project Work has been completed; (d) all final finishes within the Contract applicable to such Expansion Project Work are in place; and (e) such Expansion
Project Work is otherwise satisfactory to Owner in accordance with the Contract Documents. In general, the only remaining Work relating to such portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable) shall be minor in nature, so that
Owner could occupy the building(s) comprising such portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable) and fully utilize such building(s) on that date, and all elements are fully functional and operable as provided in the Contract,
and the Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion (as applicable) of such Work by Contractor would not materially interfere with, disrupt or hamper Owner’s use, occupancy or enjoyment of the Original Project or
Expansion Project (as applicable) to the extent completed, including the intended normal business operations of such portions of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable), or detract from the aesthetic appearance of such portions of
the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Original Project Substantial Completion nor the Expansion Project Substantial Completion shall unreasonably prevent or delay the 

  

 109 








 
performance of Owner’s Pre-Opening Work. Contractor shall request an inspection for purposes of the Original Project Substantial Completion and
Expansion Project Substantial Completion in writing when the Contractor considers that such portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable) is substantially complete in accordance with all requirements in the Contract Documents.

  
 12.1.2 Procedures For Substantial
Completion. Procedures to be utilized to determine Original Project Substantial Completion and Expansion Project Substantial Completion shall be as follows: 
  
 12.1.2.1 Either party may initiate procedures for Original Project Substantial Completion or
Expansion Project Substantial Completion, but Owner shall not be required to make a determination and accept partial Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion unless Owner accepts physical possession of
such portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as applicable) for purposes of opening for business to the public (and upon such opening for business to the public, the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work with respect to such
portion of the Project shall be deemed to have achieved Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) unless Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion
(as applicable)was determined to have occurred earlier pursuant to the provisions of this Section 12.1.2). The use or occupancy of a portion of the Project by Owner, Owner’s Consultants, Owner’s Contractors or Owner’s
other engineers or inspectors to inspect and/or correct defective workmanship pursuant to Article 10 of this Agreement or install FF&E or other work shall not be considered as use or occupancy for purposes of opening for business to the
public. 
  
 12.1.2.2 Unless waived by
Owner in writing, neither Original Project Substantial Completion nor Expansion Project Substantial Completion of any Work shall occur earlier than the date of all designated or required governmental certificates of occupancy and other permits,
inspections and certifications related to the occupancy or safety (as distinguished from gaming and other licenses required for the operation of the business to be conducted therein, which shall remain the sole responsibility of Owner to obtain) of
the portion of the Project relating to such Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work have been achieved and issued to Owner by the relevant governmental authority, and posted for the portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project (as
applicable) relating to such Work, by the relevant governmental authority (provided that a temporary certificate of occupancy (“TCO”) rather than a permanent certificate of occupancy may have been achieved and issued to Owner, and
posted, so long as the obtaining of a temporary, rather than a permanent, certificate of occupancy does not prevent any aspect of the portion of the Original Project or Expansion Project relating to such Work from being open to the general public).

  
 12.1.2.3 If Owner or Owner’s
Lenders disagree that either Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion has been 

  

 110 








 
achieved, Owner shall provide the Contractor with an advisory opinion of the items which should be completed or corrected for purposes of Original Project
Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable). Owner’s failure to advise Contractor of any items specified in the Contract Documents shall not alter the Contractor’s responsibility to complete all Work
necessary for Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) in accordance with the Contract Documents. 
  
 12.1.2.4 Upon receipt of Owner’s advisory opinion, Contractor shall complete and/or correct all listed items. Contractor shall
then submit its request to Owner for another inspection to determine Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable). Such subsequent inspection or re-inspections to determine if the Work is
acceptable for purposes of Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (as applicable) shall be made jointly by Owner and Contractor. 
  
 12.1.2.5 By no later than three (3) business days after the respective issuance of an Original
Project Certificate of Substantial Completion and an Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial Completion by Owner, the parties shall develop a final punch list which must be completed prior to the Original Project Final Completion and Expansion
Project Final Completion (as applicable). Such final punch list shall identify any incomplete or missing items (including, but not limited to, the clean up items described in Section 7.15.2) which Owner elected in its discretion to waive
for purposes of Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion (the items on such list with respect to the Original Project being, collectively, the “Original Project Punch List Items” and with
respect to the Expansion Project being, collectively, the “Expansion Project Punch List Items”). 
  
 12.1.2.6 Immediately prior to the issuance of an Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion or an Expansion Project
Certificate of Substantial Completion (as applicable), Owner and Contractor shall jointly inspect and document the condition of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work, respectively, at the time of Owner’s initial possession to
determine and record its condition. Such inspection and acceptance by Owner shall not, however, alter the Contractor’s responsibility to complete all Work necessary for Original Project Final Completion and Expansion Project Final Completion in
accordance with the Contract Documents, including items discovered by Owner after Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion. 
  
 12.1.2.7 Owner shall have the final decision as to whether or not Contractor has achieved Original
Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion of any portion of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work, respectively. When Owner determines that Original Project Substantial Completion has been achieved and
a TCO has been obtained therefor, Owner shall prepare and issue an 

  

 111 








 
“Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion,” which shall certify the date of the Original Project Substantial Completion. When
Owner determines that Expansion Project Substantial Completion has been achieved and a TCO has been obtained therefor, Owner shall prepare and issue a “Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial Completion,” which shall certify
the date of the Expansion Project Substantial Completion. Upon the issuance of such Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial Completion (as applicable) or the opening to the
general public of any portion of the Project, the care of and the risk of loss with respect to the portion of the Work for which Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion has been certified or which has been
opened to the general public shall pass to Owner. 
  
 12.1.3 Limitations. Notwithstanding any provisions in the Contract Documents which may indicate otherwise, Owner’s acceptance of partial Original Project Substantial Completion or partial Expansion Project Substantial
Completion and the possession, use and occupancy of any portion of the Project prior to Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work in their respective
entirety, shall not in any manner constitute a waiver by Owner of any of the provisions or requirements of the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, Contractor’s warranty obligations set forth in Article 10 of this Agreement
and Contractor’s obligations to achieve the Contract Time set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement; provided, however, that Original Project Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Substantial Completion shall be deemed to have
occurred with respect to the portion of the Work that is the subject of an Original Project Certificate of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Certificate of Substantial Completion issued by Owner. 
  
 12.2 Final Completion Procedures and Requirements 
  
 12.2.1 Contractor’s Notice of Final Completion.
“Original Project Final Completion” means that stage in the progress of the Original Project Work when Owner and Owner’s Lenders determine that the Original Project Work has been properly completed and equipped by Contractor in
accordance with the Contract Documents, including (a) completion of all Original Project Punch List Items), (b) the submittal to Owner of all documentation as described in the Contract Documents, (c) completion in compliance with all
applicable Laws, and (d) all obligations of Contractor under the Contract Documents (except for those obligations which are intended to be satisfied after Original Project Final Completion) are fully satisfied, and the Original Project Work is
otherwise satisfactory to Owner and Owner’s Lenders. “Expansion Project Final Completion” means that stage in the progress of the Expansion Project Work when Owner and Owner’s Lenders determine that the
Expansion Project Work has been properly completed and equipped by Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents, including (a) completion of all Expansion Project Punch List Items), (b) the submittal to Owner of all
documentation as described in the Contract Documents, (c) completion in compliance with all applicable Laws, and (d) all obligations of Contractor under the Contract Documents (except for those obligations which

 12.2.2.2 In the event that Owner or Owner’s
Lenders does not agree that Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion (as applicable) has been achieved, Owner shall promptly so advise the Contractor in writing of the remaining items to be completed for purposes of
Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion (as applicable). 
  
 12.2.2.3 After Contractor satisfies all remaining items necessary for Original Project Final Completion or Expansion Project Final

 ARTICLE XIII. 
 CONCEALED CONDITIONS AND UNCOVERING OF WORK 
  
 13.1 Concealed Conditions 
  
 13.1.1 Owner represents that it has no actual knowledge of any concealed conditions at, upon or within the Site which are of an unusual nature, differ materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally
recognized as inherent in the Work, and which would cause a material delay in the critical path portion of the Work 
  
 13.1.2 Contractor acknowledges and agrees that it shall not be entitled to an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) or extension of the Contract Time due to any concealed conditions at, upon or within the Site regardless of their origin, cause or nature, including whether or not such conditions
are identified in the Contract Documents or could not have been discovered by Contractor prior to the Effective Date through the exercise of due diligence. 
  
 13.1.3 Owner agrees that the limitation set forth in Section 13.1.2 shall apply only to
concealed conditions at, upon or within the Site. If, in the course of executing any portion of the Work required pursuant to this Agreement to be performed immediately adjacent to the Site, Contractor encounters any concealed condition in the
ground immediately adjacent to the Site which is not identified in the Contract Documents or could not have been discovered by Contractor prior to the Effective Date through the exercise of due diligence, then such concealed condition shall be
eligible for consideration as a Change for purposes of Article 18, and Contractor shall be entitled to submit a Change Proposal to Owner in connection therewith. 
  
 13.2 Covering of Work 
  
 13.2.1 Contractor shall enable Owner to inspect all portions of the Work before they are covered. 
  
 13.2.2 If a portion of the Work is covered without
providing Owner with adequate advance notice, or contrary to the request or direction of Owner or the provisions of the Contract Documents, Contractor shall, if required in writing by Owner, uncover the Work for observation. Such Work shall be
replaced at Contractor’s expense without change in the Contract Time. 
  
 13.2.3 If a portion of the Work has been properly covered in accordance with the Contract Documents and after sufficient advance notice to Owner, Owner may subsequently request to see such Work and it shall be
uncovered by Contractor. If such Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Original Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) shall be increased by appropriate Construction Change Directive
for the costs of uncovering and replacement. If 

  

 115 








 
such Work is not in accordance with the Contract Documents, Contractor shall be responsible therefor and shall not be entitled to an increase in the Original
Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable). 
  
 ARTICLE XIV. 
 INDEMNIFICATION 
  
 14.1 Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor hereby indemnifies and agrees to protect, defend,
and hold each of Owner; Wynn Resorts (Macau), Ltd.; Wynn Resorts (Macau) Holdings, Ltd.; Wynn Resorts International, Ltd.; Wynn Group Asia, Inc.; Wynn Resorts, Limited; Wong Chi Seng; S.H.W. & Co.; SKKG Limited; L’ARC de Triomphe
Limited; Classic Wave Limited; Kwan Yan Chi; Li Tai Foon; Kwan Yan Ming; Wynn Design and Development LLC; Owner’s Lenders; and the respective subsidiaries, affiliates, parent companies and the respective members, officers, directors, managers,

obligations, losses, suits, actions, legal proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, awards, or judgments, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs (whether or not suit is filed) (collectively
“Actions”), any Owner Indemnitees(s) may suffer or incur or be threatened with and whether based upon statutory, contractual, tort or other theory, that: (i) are imposed by Law; or (ii) arise by reason of or relating
directly or indirectly to (a) the death of or bodily injury to any person or persons, including, without limitation, employees of Contractor, (b) injury to property (including loss of use and the Work itself and including all costs for
repair or replacement of work, materials, supplies or equipment (whether on or off Site or in transit), including whether lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed), equipment or material, including, without limitation, any of the same resulting or arising
out of the performance of the Work performed by Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor, (c) violation of or failure to comply with or abide by any Laws, or variations from the Contract Documents in the actual construction of the Work,
(d) any infringement of the rights of any third party, including, without limitation, copyright and patent rights (in connection with which Contractor shall pay all royalties and license fees), (e) any stop notices, mechanic’s liens
or similar claims relating to any labor, services, materials, goods or equipment whether provided by Contractor, Subcontractor or any Vendor and relating to the Work, or (f) any breach or alleged breach of Contractor’s warranties,
representations, obligations, covenants or agreements set forth in the Contract; and (iii) relate to or arise out of or result from, directly or indirectly, (x) the performance of the Work, or (y) from any act or omission of
Contractor, any Subcontractor or Vendor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or anyone for whose acts any of them are liable or responsible at law or under the Contract Documents. Contractor shall be obligated to indemnify the
Owner Indemnitees against the Actions as described in the preceding sentence, regardless of whether or not any such Action is caused by an Owner Indemnitees (subject to Section 14.4 below). Owner shall notify Contractor promptly upon
receiving notice of any Actions. Owner and Contractor acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained 

  

 116 








 
in this Section 14.1, the liability of Contractor for Recovery Plan liabilities, as provided in Section 4.2, and Liquidated Damages, as
provided in Section 4.4, shall be the Owner’s sole remedy for any delay in the execution of the Work; it being further agreed, however, that other than with respect to Owner’s right to claim damages for any delay in the
execution of the Work, the foregoing statement shall not in any way limit any liability of Contractor pursuant to this Section 14.1 for any other act or omission, or for any other breach or default of Contractor, Subcontractor or any
Vendor under any of the Contract Documents. 
  
 14.2 Defense
Costs. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 14.3 immediately below, the indemnification provisions of Section 14.1 above, including defense costs, shall include all attorneys’ fees, investigation costs,
expert witnesses, court costs, and other costs and expenses incurred by the Owner Indemnitees to the extent their interests appear. 
  
 14.3 Hazardous Materials. Contractor and its Subcontractors and Vendors shall have no responsibility for the discovery, presence, handling, removal
or disposal of pre-existing hazardous materials discovered on the Site, including asbestos, asbestos products, poly-chlorinated biphenyl (PCB) or other substances classified as hazardous by the Environmental Protection Agency of the U.S. Government
or any other federal, state or local government agency and also Macau laws, except to the extent addressed or covered in the Contract Documents or otherwise made known to or reasonably foreseeable by Contractor. If Contractor discovers the presence
of any hazardous materials at the Site not otherwise called out in the Contract Documents or otherwise made known to or reasonably foreseeable by Contractor, Contractor shall promptly report the presence and precise location of any such materials to
Owner and immediately stop Work in the affected area unless requested otherwise by Owner. 
  
 14.4 Other Limitations. Subject to the provisions of this Section 14.4, the obligations in Section 14.1 above shall apply to and include those Actions arising from the negligent,
tortious, intentional or other acts of any Owner Indemnitees, and such indemnification obligations are primary to any insurance in the names of the Owner Indemnitees. In the event of contributory negligence or tortious or intentional act of any
Owner Indemnitees, the Contractor shall only be liable for payment of such Actions in direct proportion to the indemnifying party’s percentage of fault, if any, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or as may be mutually agreed
upon by Owner and Contractor. The indemnification obligations in this Article 14 shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or reduce other rights or obligations of Contractor or Owner, including, but not limited to, any obligation of
indemnity which would otherwise exist at law or otherwise in favor of an Owner Indemnitees. If any Action occurs or is threatened, the Contractor shall defend the Owner Indemnitees with counsel reasonably acceptable to such Owner Indemnitees, at the
Contractor’s expense, unless an Owner Indemnitees elects to defend itself, in which case the Contractor shall pay for such Owner’ Indemnitees reasonable defense costs, including, but not limited to, all attorneys’ fees, investigation
costs, expert witnesses, court costs, and other costs and expenses incurred by such Owner Indemnitees. Contractor shall not have the right 

  

 117 








 
to settle any Action without Owner’s prior written consent in each instance. The indemnification obligation of Contractor (or any Subcontractor) under
this Article 14 or otherwise under the Contract Documents, shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of insurance coverages carried whether pursuant to the Contract Documents or otherwise, the amount of insurance
proceeds available or paid (except the Contractor shall be entitled to an offset against its indemnity obligation to the extent of any insurance proceeds actually received by the Owner Indemnitee, without condition or reservation, relating to any
Action for which the Owner Indemnitee seeks to be indemnified pursuant to an indemnity in this Agreement), or any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for Contractor or any Subcontractor or Owner or
other person or entity under workmen’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts. Provided, however, any other limitations on the liability of Contractor specifically set forth in this Agreement shall apply to
and limit Contractor’s indemnity obligations in this Article 14 as and to the extent provided therein. 
  
 14.5 Survival of Indemnification Provisions. The Contractor’s indemnity obligations set forth in this Article 14 shall apply
irrespective of whether or not any Subcontractors or Vendors obtain or fail to obtain insurance coverages as required herein, shall apply during the performance of any Work, and shall survive any termination of this Contract or the Original Project
Final Completion or Expansion Project Final Completion of the Original Project Work or Expansion Project Work, respectively. 
  
 14.6 Risk. Except to the extent expressly provided for in the Contract Documents, all Work (i) covered by the Contract Documents,
(ii) done at the Site, (iii) in preparing or delivering materials or equipment, or (iv) in providing services for the Project, or any or all of them, shall be at the sole risk of Contractor. 
  
 14.7 Limit on Consequential Damages. Other than
Contractor’s liability for (a) Recovery Plan Liabilities (as provided in Sections 4.2, 11.8 and 11.8.6), and (b) Liquidated Damages (as provided in Section 4.4.1), Contractor shall have no liability to Owner under
this Contract for consequential, indirect or special damages, including, but not limited to, loss of profit, loss of revenues, loss of any contract or loss of use of all or any portion of the Work (collectively, “Consequential
Damages”). For the avoidance of doubt, Owner and Contractor agree that for purposes of the limitation expressed in this Section 14.7, any liabilities of Contractor pursuant to any of its indemnity obligations set forth in Sections
7.2, 7.27.1, 8.2.8, 10.6, 11.11.2, 16.2, 14.1, 24.7, 26.1.2(g) and 27.1.6 are not, and in no event shall be deemed to be, Consequential Damages. Nothing in this Section 14.7
shall limit the types or amounts of any damages other than Consequential Damages that may be available to Owner under this Agreement or at law or in equity.

 119 








 
all Subcontractors and Vendors as joint insureds. Such insurance shall be primary to any other insurance available to the joint insureds and it shall apply
separately to each insured against whom a claim is made or a suit is brought subject to the single limit. In the event of delays by the Contractor or its Subcontractors and Vendors causing delays to the Original Project Final Completion of the

 15.1.7 The Builder’s Risk and TPL Insurance

Owner and Owner’s Lenders within 30 days of inception of the insurance.

comply with any of the insurance requirements set forth in this Section 15.1 relating to TPL or Builder’s Risk insurance, the other party shall have the right to immediately purchase and maintain the required insurance at the
non-complying party’s expense (and in the case of any insurance that was required to have been procured and paid for by Owner, the Original Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, as designated by Owner shall be
increased accordingly) for and in the name of such non-complying party, and the non-complying party furnish all necessary information to the other party to enable the other party to purchase and maintain such insurance. Compliance by the Contractor
or by the Owner on behalf of the Contractor with the insurance requirements of this Agreement shall not relieve the Contractor from any liability under any provision of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, under the indemnification
contained in Article 14. Said rights shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to any and all other rights and remedies herein or otherwise provided to the Owner by applicable Laws.

any failures to comply with this Article 15, including the failure to furnish acceptable policies of insurance (and any updates or amendments, as applicable, to such policies) prior to date of the Original Project Date of Commencement, shall
be solely the responsibility of Contractor and its Subcontractors.

 123 








 
Project Work or Expansion Project Work or any portions thereof), for default if the Contractor fails to perform or breaches any of its material obligations
under the Contract Documents, including, but not limited to, a failure to perform the Work in a diligent, expeditious, workmanlike and careful manner strictly in accordance with the Contract. Upon any such termination, Owner may take possession of

 17.1.1 Notice Of Default. The Contractor shall
promptly correct any default to Owner’s satisfaction within seven (7) calendar days following receipt of written notice of default from Owner. If correction within said seven (7) days is not possible, Contractor shall commence and
diligently continue effective action to correct such default to Owner’s satisfaction, but not later than thirty (30) days following receipt of Owner’s notice (except for such longer period as may otherwise be reasonably approved in

terminate the Contract by written notice specifying the date of termination and without prejudice to any other remedy Owner may have. 
  
 17.1.2 Non-Curable Defaults. Notwithstanding the other provisions of Section 17.1, Owner may also elect to declare
Contractor in material default and may terminate Contractor immediately upon written notice (unless a longer period is otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement with regard to the matters in Sections 17.1.2.1 through 17.1.2.4
below, it being agreed that the cure periods in Section 17.1.1 above do not apply to Sections 17.1.2.1 through 17.1.2.4) and/or take such other action as Owner may be allowed, in the event of any of the following:

materialmens’ lien rights on Owner’s property, the Site, the Project and/or the Work by a Subcontractor, Vendor, laborer, materialman, or supplier or any other party providing services or material 

  

 124 








 
engaged by, on behalf of, or acting under the direction of Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor in connection with the Work, unless that Owner’s
property, the Site, the Project and/or the Work, as applicable, is released from such lien(s) or, at Owner’s option, satisfied by bond or other security, in an amount and with a bonding company reasonably satisfactory to Owner and Owner’s
Lenders within the time periods set forth in and pursuant to Section 7.19.2 hereof; 
  
 17.1.2.3 Failure of Contractor for five successive days or an aggregate of seven days in any thirty (30) day period (other

Work on the Site and relating to any such stoppage, reduction, suspension, delay or interruption. The issuance of a stop work order or delay, reduction or interruption by Owner shall not prejudice Owner’s right to subsequently terminate for
default. 
  
 17.1.4 Owner’s Rights Upon
Termination For Default. If all or a portion of the Contractor’s Work is terminated pursuant to this Section 17.1, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any payment until after the later of the Original Project Final

right to terminate this Contract upon giving Owner fourteen (14) business days’ written notice thereof and such termination shall be treated as a termination with cause for purposes of Section 17.6.2. No such suspension, delay,
interruption or reduction by Owner shall constitute a breach or default by Owner under the Contract Documents. Contractor shall continue to diligently perform any remaining Work that is not suspended, delayed, reduced or interrupted and shall take
all actions necessary to maintain and safeguard all materials, equipment, supplies and Work in progress affected by the suspension, delay, reduction or interruption.

interruption for convenience by Owner, Owner shall pay Contractor and the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) shall be increased by such amounts (subject to the payment and related
requirements of the Contract Documents) as follows: 
  
 17.3.2.1 Additional Costs of the Work, if any, which are properly, necessarily and reasonably incurred by Contractor, Subcontractors and Vendors as a direct result of such suspension, delay or interruption, including, but not limited

 130 








 
suspended (or if a substantial portion of the Project is suspended such that it causes a delay in the opening date of the Original Project Casino, Expansion
Project Casino, the Hotel, Theatre and Entry Feature) following commencement of the Work; and 
  
 17.3.2.2 By any increase in Contractor’s Fee determined in accordance with Section 18.5.2. 
  
 17.3.2.3 Provided, however, that no adjustment shall
be made to the extent that performance was otherwise subject to suspension, delay or interruption by another cause for which Contractor is responsible. 
  
 17.4 Limitations. Except to the extent provided in Section 17.2.2 or 17.3.2 hereof, as applicable, in the event of any
termination of the Contract or suspension, delay, reduction or interruption of the Work by Owner pursuant to Section 17.1, 17.2 or 17.3, Owner shall have no liability to Contractor or any Subcontractor or Vendor, and
neither Contractor nor any Subcontractor or Vendor will make and they hereby waive any claim for (a) compensation, expenses, additional fees or anticipated profits for unperformed Work, (b) delays, acceleration or disruption, (c) lost

Project Contractor’s Fee, as a result of any of the foregoing Owner elections under Sections 17.1, 17.2 or 17.3 above or due to any other delays. All amounts payable by Owner shall be subject to Owner’s right of audit
and offset. 
  
 17.5 Other Rights and Remedies. Other
rights and remedies available to Owner in the event of a default or material breach by Contractor which is not timely cured in accordance with Section 17.1.1 hereof, shall include, but not be limited to, the following, and all such
rights and remedies of Owner in this Article 17 shall be non-exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to Owner under the Contract, at law or otherwise: 
  
 17.5.1 A waiver by Owner of a default by Contractor
shall not be considered to be a waiver of any subsequent default by Contractor, nor be deemed to amend or modify the terms of this Contract. 
  
 17.5.2 In the event of termination for cause, disputes as to whether a material breach of contract occurred within the provisions
of the Contract Documents shall be subject to resolution pursuant to Article 22 of this Agreement. If Owner terminates this Contract in whole or in part for default and a court of competent jurisdiction later determines that such termination
was improper or wrongful, then that portion of the improper or wrongful termination shall automatically convert into a termination for Owner’s convenience pursuant to Section 17.2 of this Agreement. 
  

 131 








 17.5.3 Owner shall have the right and is authorized to cure such defaults and
offset against and deduct from amounts otherwise payable to Contractor any such costs, damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees and any other expenses suffered by Owner and arising out of such default including any cure or attempted cure by Owner,

 17.6.1 If payment from Owner for an Application for
Progress Payment (exclusive of amounts properly retained or withheld under the Contract), approved by Owner and Owner’s Lenders in accordance with Sections 5.2 and 5.3 of this Agreement, has not been received by Contractor
within thirty (30) days of the date payment is due pursuant to Section 5.3 of this Agreement, interest shall thereafter commence to accrue (from the original due date of payment pursuant to Section 5.3 hereof) on such
delinquent amounts at then existing prime rate of Bank of China (Hong Kong) plus one percent (1%), until paid, and Contractor may upon written notice to Owner cease Work until such payment has been received, in which case the Original Project
Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion (as applicable) will be extended in accordance with Section 11.6 hereof. If payment of undisputed amounts to which Contractor is
otherwise then entitled pursuant to the terms of this Agreement are not paid by Owner to Contractor within fourteen (14) days after the expiration of the thirty (30) day period hereinabove (or the next draw cycle under Owner’s
financing for the Project) and written notice by Contractor that the same are past due, Contractor may terminate this Agreement upon an additional five (5) business days’ written notice to Owner. 
  
 17.6.2 If Contractor terminates this Agreement
with cause in accordance with this Agreement and such termination is accepted by Owner or challenged by Owner but upheld by an arbitral tribunal, Contractor shall be entitled, as its exclusive remedy (but in addition to Contractor’s rights
under Section 22.3 hereof), to the recovery of (a) the amounts (if any) to which Contractor would have been entitled had Owner, pursuant to Section 17.2 of this Agreement, terminated this Agreement for convenience effective as of the

 132 








 ARTICLE XVIII. 
 CHANGE IN THE WORK 
  
 18.1 Change. A “Change” in the Work means an increase, decrease, variation, modification or change in the scope of Contractor’s Work from that indicated in the Contract Documents, or modification to the Original
Project Schedule or Expansion Project Schedule. Suspension and termination for convenience shall be governed by Article 17 of this Agreement and shall not be considered a Change except to the extent provided therein. A Change can only be
implemented by a Change Order or by Construction Change Directive. Accordingly, no course of conduct or dealings between the parties, nor express or implied acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work, and no claim that Owner has been
unjustly enriched by any alteration or addition to the Work, whether or not there is in fact any such unjust enrichment, shall be the basis for any claim to an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price or extension of the Contract Time. Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents, and Contractor shall proceed promptly, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order or Construction
Change Directive. 
  
 18.2 Change Order. A “Change
Order” is a written instrument prepared by Contractor and signed by Owner and Contractor, stating their agreement upon all of the following: 
  
 (a) a Change in the Work including a full description of such Change; 
  
 (b) the amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable); and/or 
  
 (c) the extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time. 
  
 Methods used in determining adjustments to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, or Original
Project Contractor’s Fee or Expansion Project Contractor’s Fee, may include those listed in Section 18.4.3 hereof. 
  
 18.3 Change Proposal Request. At any time and from time to time prior to Original Project Final Completion of the Original Project Work or
Expansion Project Final Completion of the Expansion Project Work, Owner may request Contractor to make Changes in the Work. If Owner desires a Change in the Work Owner may, in its sole and absolute discretion and in writing, request a Change
Proposal from Contractor (“Change Proposal Request”). A Change Proposal Request shall set out, in reasonable detail, the Changes in the Work requested by Owner. Contractor shall issue a Change Proposal within ten (10) days (or
sooner, if possible) following its receipt of a Change Proposal Request or such longer period as is reasonably necessary if such ten (10) day period cannot be reasonably complied with. Contractor shall also issue a Change Proposal:
(i) when Contractor reasonably believes that a Change in the Work is necessary or desirable; or (ii) when a Change in the Work is made necessary by Laws. If Contractor refuses or fails to 

  

 133 








 
timely provide a Change Proposal, or modifies or alters a Change Proposal Request, or if Owner and Contractor are unable to agree in writing upon the terms
of the Change Proposal, including but not limited to: (i) the amount of increase or decrease in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), or (ii) the length of extension or
advancement, if any, of the Contract Time, Owner: (a) may issue a Construction Change Directive pursuant to Section 18.4 hereof, (b) may require Contractor to obtain when possible at least three bids from qualified
subcontractors to perform such Change in the Work, and Owner may select the subcontractor from said bidders to perform such Change in the Work, or (c) may engage other contractors, subcontractors and/or laborers to perform such Change in the
Work, and Contractor shall cooperate fully with any such persons, and any such hiring by Owner shall not affect this Agreement in any manner (other than to provide for a reduction in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable), equal to the value of such Work (but not less than the amount budgeted therefor in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price) not being performed by
Contractor, and in the Original Project Contractor’s Fee or Expansion Project Contractor’s Fee applicable thereto, subject to Section 18.5.2) and shall not be deemed to be a constructive termination. 
  
 18.3.1 “Change Proposal” means a
written proposal prepared and signed by Contractor setting forth (i) the Changes in the Work requested by Owner or proposed by Contractor, (ii) the amount of adjustment, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (including pursuant to Section 18.4.3 below) due to such Change, and (iii) the extent of adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time due to such Change. A Change Proposal is only a proposal unless and
until signed and accepted by Owner as a Change Order. 
  
 18.4
Construction Change Directive 
  
 18.4.1 “Construction Change Directive” means a written order initiated, prepared and signed by Owner and given to Contractor directing a Change in the Work or an allocation of the Original Project Owner Contingency
or Expansion Project Owner Contingency (as applicable) and stating a proposed basis for adjustments, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable)or Contract Time, or any of
them or any combination of them. 
  
 18.4.2 Owner may, by Construction Change Directive, without invalidating or breaching the Contract, order a Change in the Work or apply a portion of the Original Project Owner Contingency or Expansion Project Owner Contingency (as
applicable). Upon receipt of a Construction Change Directive, Contractor shall promptly proceed with the Change in the Work involved (including implementing any reductions or accelerations in the Work) and, within ten (10) days of receipt of
the related Construction Change Directive, advise Owner of the Contractor’s agreement (in which case Contractor shall sign and return the Construction Change Directive) or disagreement with the method, if any, provided in the 

  

 134 








 
Construction Change Directive for determining the proper adjustment, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price or Contract Time. Contractor agrees to immediately, when directed in writing by Owner, perform the Change in Work diligently and without delay. 
  

18.4.3 If the Construction Change Directive provides for an adjustment to either the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price
or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, the adjustment may be based on one of the following methods: 
  
 (a) mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation; 
  
 (b) unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or
subsequently agreed upon; or 
  
 (c) cost to be
determined in a manner agreed upon by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee, which cost shall be based upon a proposal by the appropriate party. Any proposals from Subcontractors shall not include any amounts for overhead and
profit in excess of an aggregate of ten percent (10%) of the cost of such Subcontractor’s Work, unless approved by Owner. 
  
 18.4.4 A Construction Change Directive signed and unmodified by Contractor indicates the agreement of Contractor therewith,
including the method, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive for determining the adjustment, if any, in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time. Upon
Contractor’s written acceptance and delivery thereof to Owner of the unmodified Construction Change Directive, that Construction Change Directive shall become a Change Order. If Contractor fails to advise Owner of its agreement or disagreement
with the proposed adjustment in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) or Contract Time within ten (10) days after the receipt of the Construction Change Directive to
Contractor, then the Construction Change Directive shall be deemed approved and shall become a Change Order, and Contractor shall have no right to any adjustment to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price or Contract Time in excess of the adjustments, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive. 
  
 18.4.5 If Contractor disagrees with the method or adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Contract Time within the ten
(10) calendar day time period provided in Section 18.4.4 above, and the parties are unable within a reasonable period of time to reach an agreement, the matter shall be resolved under Article 22 of this Agreement. 

 

 135 








 18.5 Determination of Increases or Decreases in Guaranteed Maximum Price 
  
 18.5.1 Any change in the Original Project Guaranteed
Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price (as applicable) as a result of net Changes in the Work (including a Construction Change Directive), shall be calculated based upon estimates of: (a) the aggregate additional amounts
(if any) to be paid (or which would have been paid if the subject Work had not been eliminated) by Contractor to its Subcontractors and Vendors for the applicable Change in the Work, without mark-up or other add-on by Contractor, and (b) the
increase or decrease (if any) in the Cost of the Work to be incurred (or which would have been incurred if the subject Work had not been eliminated) by Contractor with respect to the applicable Change in the Work to the extent (if any) such Change
were to be performed (or which would have been performed if the subject Work had not been eliminated) by Contractor directly. Any and all amounts or items excluded from the determination of the Cost of the Work, including all Non-Allowable Costs of
the Work, shall also be excluded from the determination of the cost of any Change in the Work. 
  
 18.5.2 Whether or not Contractor is entitled to an increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project
Guaranteed Maximum Price or modification of the Contract Time pursuant to the Contract as a result of any Changes in the Work, in no event shall Contractor be entitled to, and Contractor hereby waives any claim to, an increase in the Original
Project Contractor’s Fee or Expansion Project Contractor’s Fee, due to any and all such Changes. 
  
 (a) Notwithstanding the first paragraph of Section 18.5.2, (a) if the aggregate net amount of all Changes (as reflected
by Change Orders) and other adjustments in the Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to this Agreement increases the Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price by more than US$12,755,000 (which is five percent (5%) of the
Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price of US$255,500,000), then, subject to the terms of the Contract Documents, Contractor’s Fee shall be increased by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the amount by which (x) the aggregate
net amount of all such Changes and other adjustments in the Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to this Agreement exceeds (y) US$12,755,000; and (b) if the aggregate net amount of all Changes (as reflected by Change
Orders) and other adjustments in the Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to this Agreement reduces the Original Agreement Guaranteed Maximum Price by more than US$12,755,000, then, subject to the terms of the Contract Documents,
Contractor’s Fee shall be equitably adjusted, taking into account the circumstances underlying such Changes. Contractor has fully considered the impact of the foregoing limitation and acknowledgement, and accepts all consequences relating
thereto. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the first
paragraph of Section 18.5.2, (a) if the aggregate net amount of all Changes (as reflected by Change Orders) and other adjustments in the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price 

  

 136 








 
pursuant to this Agreement increases the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price by more than Seven Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Nine
Hundred Sixty-Six United States Dollars (US$7,837,966) (which is five percent (5%) (rounded) of the initial Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price of US$156,759,326 set forth in Section 3.1 of the Original Agreement), then,
subject to the terms of the Contract Documents, Contractor’s Fee shall be increased by an amount equal to five percent (5%) of the amount by which (x) the aggregate net amount of all such Changes and other adjustments in the Expansion
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to this Agreement exceeds (y) Seven Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty-Six United States Dollars (US$7,837,966); (b) if the aggregate net amount of all Changes (as
reflected by Change Orders) and other adjustments in the Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price pursuant to this Agreement reduces the Guaranteed Maximum Price by more than Seven Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Seven Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty-Six
United States Dollars (US$7,837,966), then, subject to the terms of the Contract Documents, Contractor’s Fee shall be equitably adjusted, taking into account the circumstances underlying such Changes. Contractor has fully considered the impact
of the foregoing limitation and acknowledgement, and accepts all consequences relating thereto. 
  
 18.6 Simultaneous Submittal Requirements. In the event that Contractor considers that any Change Proposal Request or Construction Change Directive
may involve Changes to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the Contract Time, it shall be the Contractor’s fundamental duty and an essential requirement of this Contract to make
simultaneous submittals of all documents necessary to establish both such Changes in accordance with this Article 18, and to contemporaneously prove entitlement to both such Changes, and without any reservation of rights for future
consideration. Without limitation of Contractor’s rights under Article 22, if Contractor is unable to or does not so prove both such entitlements pursuant to and contemporaneously with such submittals, then Contractor shall be deemed to
have waived any further right to make a claim for the portion of the adjustment not provable at such time. 
  
 18.7 Continued Performance. Notwithstanding the status of any proposed, pending or disputed Change (including any Construction Change Directive)
pursuant to this Article 18 or any Claim pursuant to Article 20 below, or any dispute, and so long as Owner continues to timely make payment to Contractor of amounts properly due to Contractor under and subject to the terms of the
Contract Documents and not in dispute, Contractor shall not be entitled to and will not suspend any services under the Contract Documents, but will continue to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and will continue to
perform all services thereunder and proceed diligently with the performance of its Work in accordance with the terms hereof, including completing any Work described in any Construction Change Directive, unless Owner directs in writing otherwise.

  

 137 








 18.8 Effect of Change Orders 
  
 18.8.1 Execution of a formal Change Order shall be the sole procedure for settlement of any and all
issues concerning the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or Contract Time, including any settlement based on a Claim pursuant to Article 20 hereof or pursuant to Article 22 hereof;
provided that a decision by the arbitrators in a proceeding instituted under Article 22 shall be deemed a Change Order for purposes of this Section 18.8.1. 
  
 18.8.2 No Change shall be deemed as settled unless and until the parties sign a formal Change Order
which fully and finally settles all pending issues pertaining to increases or decreases in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or the Contract Time and without any reservation of rights for
future consideration. In that regard, the parties hereby agree that a signed Change Order shall be inclusive of any and all direct, indirect, consequential costs, damages or losses based upon any theory of recovery, including, but not limited to:
actual damages; all time-related costs; total costs; modified total costs; Eichleay formula or other equitable adjustment theories; full compensation for general conditions; extended site supervision and administration; all field, site, branch
and/or home office overheads; all general and administrative costs; and any other similar direct, indirect and/or time-related costs howsoever derived or formulated. 
  
 18.8.3 Any statement added by the Contractor to the face of an otherwise valid Change Order, or
contained in any transmittal or separate correspondence wherein the Contractor attempts to reserve rights to seek any further increases in the Contractor’s Fee, Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum
Price and/or Contract Time shall be null and void. 
  
 18.8.4 Any increase in the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Expansion Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, or extension in the Contract Time, shall be reduced and offset by any and all reductions or Changes in the Work which
would result in reduced Costs of the Work and/or advancement of the Contract Time, as the case may be (i.e., changes in the Work shall be netted out). 
  
 18.9 Verbal Instructions and Minor Changes in the Work. Contractor shall not be entitled to rely upon, and shall not implement any Change based
only on, Owner’s verbal instruction, except in emergency situations and when necessary to prevent the imminent threat of personal injuries or damage to the Work or Owner’s existing property, or for minor Changes within Contractor’s
scope of Work which are not material and do not involve an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or an extension of the Contract Time (“Minor Changes”). Such Minor Changes may be effected by written or verbal order at
Owner’s election at any time. If the Contractor does not agree that such order constitutes a Minor Change, Contractor shall submit a Change Proposal pursuant to Section 18.3 above; 

  

 138 








 
provided, however, Contractor shall still promptly perform the Work specified in the instruction or order from Owner. 
  
 18.10 Waiver and Release of Contractor’s Rights. Contractor
hereby confirms its willingness and ability to comply with the requirements of this Article 18. Contractor’s failure to first comply with the requirements of this Article 18, including the timely notice requirements, shall
constitute a waiver and release by Contractor of any and all rights to pursue a Claim. 
  
 ARTICLE XIX. 
 RECORD KEEPING AND AUDIT RIGHTS 
  
 19.1 Required Accounting Records. To facilitate audits by Owner or
Owner’s Lenders, including, but not limited to, for any purpose related to Change Orders, Changes or Change Proposals, Contractor shall at all times implement and maintain (and require all Subcontractors providing labor and/or materials on a
cost-plus basis pursuant to a subcontract having a contract price of HK$1,500,000 or more, as well as all Subcontractors as may otherwise be specified by Owner (collectively, the “Auditable Subcontractors”) to implement and
maintain) such cost control systems and daily record keeping procedures as may be necessary to attain proper fiscal management and detailed financial records for all costs related to the Work and as are otherwise reasonably satisfactory to Owner and
Owner’s Lenders. All cost and pricing data shall include, without limitation, the identification of any markups, vendor quotations and pricing methodologies. Records to be maintained by the Contractor and Auditable Subcontractors for purposes
of the Contract, including for purposes of all audits conducted pursuant to this Article 19 shall include, but not be limited to the following: (a) payroll records and payroll burden costs on actual wages and salaries (payroll taxes,
insurance, benefits, etc.); (b) all correspondence, minutes of meetings, daily logs including schedule status reports, memoranda and other similar data; (c) items such as bids, proposals, estimating work sheets, quotes, cost recaps,
tabulations, receipts, submittals, tax returns (except solely income tax returns), general ledger entries, canceled checks and computer data relating to the Work and this Contract, and (d) all other data relating to or arising out of the Work
and any other similar supporting documentation reasonably required by Owner or Owner’s Lenders. It is further agreed that records subject to audit include Project-related records maintained by parent companies, affiliates, subsidiaries or other
related parties. Contractor’s failure to cooperate or to provide access as described in this Article 19 shall be a breach of this Contract. 
  
 19.2 Purpose and Extent of Record Access. Owner and Owner’s Lenders, and their respective authorized representatives, shall have the right to
fully and completely audit, copy, investigate and review, and shall be afforded useful access to all of the records described in Section 19.1 above at all reasonable times (both during performance of the Work and after Original Project
Final Completion and Expansion Project Final Completion) 

  

 139 








 
for purposes of inspection, audit, review and copying to the full extent as Owner or Owner’s Lenders may require relating to the Work or the Contract.
All such Contractor’s records and records of all Auditable Subcontractors shall also be made available to Owner for purposes related to compliance with Owner’s business ethics policies. Upon request, Contractor shall also fully cooperate
in arranging interviews with Contractor’s employees and shall require all Auditable Subcontractors to likewise fully cooperate pursuant to this Article 19. 
  
 19.3 Record Keeping Formats. Contractor may elect to maintain part of the records described in
Section 19.1 above in an electronic format. Contractor agrees that, if any Project-related information is maintained in an electronic format, such information will be made available to Owner and Owner’s Lenders in a readily useable
format within three (3) business days after a written request by Owner. 
  
 19.4 Certifications. Upon request, Contractor shall be required to certify that, to the best of its knowledge and belief, all data subject to audit pursuant to this Article 19 is accurate, complete and
current. Such certifications shall be made by Contractor to Owner and Owner’s Lenders in the case of this Contract, and by Auditable Subcontractors to Contractor in the case of subcontracts and purchase orders. 
  
 19.5 Flow-Down Provisions. Contractor shall require all Auditable
Subcontractors to comply with the provisions of this Article 19, by insertion of this “Right to Audit” clause (Sections 19.1 through 19.7 inclusive) into each respective related subcontract and purchase
order of all tiers relating to the Work. Owner shall have the right (but not obligation) to act as Contractor’s authorized representative for the purpose of conducting audits in accordance with this Article 19 of all accounting and
Project-related records in the possession of all Auditable Subcontractors. It is specifically understood, however, that Owner has no contractual relationship with any Subcontractor or Vendor of any tier. Likewise, it shall remain the
Contractor’s financial and contractual responsibility to resolve all such issues with its Subcontractors or Vendors. No such audit or activity by Owner or Owner’s Lenders shall release Contractor or any Subcontractor from, or waive, any of
Contractor’s or any Subcontractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article 19, Owner’s and Owner’s Lenders’ right to audit as to Subcontractors with subcontracts on a
lump sum basis shall be limited solely to those instances where there is an allegation of fraud or similar misconduct involving such Subcontractor. 
  
 19.6 Remedies. Certification of information pursuant to Section 19.4 above, and subsequent approval by Owner of invoices, billings and
Change Orders, shall not preclude a post-approval adjustment, including based upon a later Contract compliance or pricing audit. Specifically, Owner shall have the right to reduce any payments to Contractor or any Auditable Subcontractor by any
amounts attributable to incorrect or otherwise defective cost data. Contractor’s submission shall be considered defective when the cost or pricing data, as certified in accordance with provisions of Section 19.4, above, is not
accurate, complete or current. If an audit inspection or examination, conducted in accordance with this Article 19, 

  

 140 








 
discloses overcharges by Contractor (or any Auditable Subcontractor) of any nature in excess of US$50,000 (including interest as provided in
Section 17.6.1) hereof, Contractor shall reimburse or cause such Auditable Subcontractor to reimburse, Owner for the total actual cost of Owner’s audit associated with such overcharge, including but not limited to the actual costs
of outside auditors and/or the use of Owner’s internal auditor at internal billing rates. 
  
 19.7 Record Retention. Contractor shall preserve and make available to Owner and Owner’s Lenders at Contractor’s principal office in Hong Kong, all such records and other data covered by this
Article 19, for a minimum period of three (3) years after the later of Original Project Final Payment and Expansion Project Final Payment is made or for such longer period as may be required by any Laws. 
  
 ARTICLE XX. 
 CLAIMS 
  
 20.1 Definition. A “Claim” is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, adjustment or interpretation of Contract terms, payment of money, extension of time or other relief with
respect to the terms of the Contract. The term “Claim” also includes other disputes and matters in question between Owner and Contractor arising out of or relating to the Contract. Claims must be made by written notice. The responsibility
to substantiate Claims shall rest with the party making the Claim. 
  
 20.2 Notice. Claims not made by Contractor within fourteen (14) days after occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim shall be barred. Claims must be made by written notice. An additional Claim made after the initial
Claim has been implemented by Change Order will not be considered unless (a) based upon different facts from those giving rise to the initial Claim, and (b) submitted in a timely manner. 
  
 20.3 Pending Resolution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Contract or the other Contract Documents to the contrary, while any dispute, action or proceeding exists between Contractor and Owner, so long as Owner continues to pay all undisputed amounts hereunder (or is otherwise excused from making payment of

Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion or Expansion Project Guaranteed Date of Substantial Completion (as applicable), which agreement of Contractor shall be specifically enforceable. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in the
other Contract Documents, Contractor shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder unless pursuant to (but only to the extent of) a final judgment resolving any such dispute, action or proceeding. Contractor recognizes and acknowledges
that the provisions of this Section 20.3 and the completion of the Work on a timely basis notwithstanding any dispute, action or proceeding are fundamental to the contractual relationship established pursuant to this Contract, shall be


  

 141 








 
specifically enforceable, and that Owner would not have entered into this Contract but for Contractor’s agreement set forth herein. Contractor

 20.4 Final Settlement of Claims. No Claim involving resolution of issues pertaining to the Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion
Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price and/or Contract Time shall be deemed final until both parties sign a final and unconditional Change Order, or an arbitral tribunal duly convened hereunder makes a binding determination as described in
Section 20.5 and Article 22 below. With respect to non-judicial settlements, final and unconditional Change Orders signed by both parties shall be a condition precedent to Owner’s duty to make payments or adjust the Original
Project Guaranteed Maximum Price, Expansion Original Project Guaranteed Maximum Price or Contract Time. 
  
 20.5 Unresolved Claims. Any Claims or disputes arising out of this Contract which are not resolved by the parties within sixty (60) days, may

Contractor to continue to perform Work under the Contract, and in such Lender’s Notification, Owner’s Lenders may elect either to (a) not assume any of Owner’s rights or obligations under the Contract, or (b) assume
Owner’s rights and obligations arising under the Contract from and after the date of Lender’s Notification. Upon receipt of Lender’s 

  

 142 








 
Notification, and notwithstanding any event of default by Owner under any such loan documents and whether Owner’s Lenders elect clause (a) or (b),
Contractor shall thereafter continue to properly perform the Work and its obligations under the Contract in accordance with the terms of the Contract, so long as (i) Contractor continues to be paid, by either Owner or Owner’s Lenders in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement, for all Work not in dispute and properly performed in accordance with the terms of the Contract from and after the date of Lender’s Notification, and (ii) the other obligations of Owner under
the Contract Documents which are necessary to be performed in order for Contractor to be able to continue to properly perform the Work continue to be performed and satisfied by Owner, Owner’s Lenders or otherwise.

the Contract which may give Contractor the right to terminate the Contract or suspend or discontinue performance thereunder, Contractor agrees not to terminate the Contract or suspend or discontinue performance thereunder without first providing
Owner and Owner’s Lenders with thirty (30) days prior written notice, and during such thirty (30) days Owner’s Lenders may elect whether to (a) allow Contractor to terminate the Contract, not cure any defaults of Owner and
not assume any of Owner’s obligations under the Contract, or (b) assume Owner’s obligations arising under the Contract from and after the date of Owner’s Lenders’ election, and require Contractor to continue
Contractor’s performance under the Contract. If Owner’s Lenders shall timely elect to proceed under clause (b) herein, Contractor agrees not to terminate the Contract or suspend or discontinue its performance thereunder, and to
continue to properly perform all Work and obligations under the Contract in accordance with the terms of the Contract and accept payment and/or performance from Owner or Owner’s Lenders, so long as Contractor continues to be paid in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement for all amounts due in accordance with the terms of the Contract after Owner’s Lenders’ election as specified above. The thirty (30) day period provided above shall run concurrently with the thirty
(30) day period provided under Section 17.6.1 if Contractor shall give such thirty (30) day notices under this Section 21.3 and under Section 17.6.1 concurrently. Promptly upon request by either Owner or
Owner’s Lenders, Contractor shall enter into an agreement with Owner and Owner’s Lenders incorporating the terms of this Section 21.3 and Section 21.2, along with such other matters reasonably requested by Owner’s Lenders.

  
 21.4 Payment and Work Continuation. Notwithstanding any
other provision of the Contract or otherwise, including anything in this Article 21, and unless Owner’s Lenders elect to assume the Contract, Owner’s Lenders shall have no obligation to reimburse or pay Contractor for (a) any
Work which has been the subject of a prior advance of loan funds by Owner’s Lenders to Owner and paid to Contractor, and/or (b) any Work which is the subject of a dispute by Owner’s Lenders as to its proper quality, scope or
compliance with the Contract. Owner’s Lenders shall have the benefit of all claims, defenses to payment and setoffs available to Owner under the Contract as to amounts that Contractor contends are due for Work under the Contract.
Notwithstanding any terms of the Contract to the contrary, Contractor will diligently continue to perform the Work and its obligations under 

  

 143 








 
the Contract notwithstanding any dispute arising with Owner, Owner’s Lenders or any other person or entity, so long as (i) Contractor continues to
be paid in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for amounts due in accordance with the terms of the Contract, and (ii) the other obligations of Owner under the Contract Documents which are necessary to be performed in order for
Contractor to be able to continue to properly perform the Work continue to be performed and satisfied by Owner, Owner’s Lenders or otherwise. Except to the extent expressly provided in Section 21.3 hereof, nothing in this Contract,
or otherwise, shall cause or impose any obligation on Owner’s Lenders to fund any amounts, including any loan advance, to Contractor. Owner’s Lenders may enforce the obligations of the Contract with the same force and effect as if enforced
by Owner, and may (but need not) perform the obligations of Owner (unless Owner’s Lenders elect to perform such obligations pursuant to this Article 21), and Contractor will accept any such performance in lieu of performance by Owner in
satisfaction of Owner’s obligations hereunder. Subject to the foregoing limitations on assignment and delegations, all of the terms and provisions of the Contract shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties to this
Agreement, and their respective permitted transferees, successors, assigns and legal representatives.

 21.9 General Cooperation. Contractor agrees to cooperate fully with all such Owner’s Lenders and Contractor agrees to (a) provide written

 ARTICLE XXII. 
 DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND GOVERNING LAW 
  
 22.1 Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Contract, or the breach,
termination or validity thereof (including any tortious or statutory claim) (any of the foregoing being a “Dispute”) shall, upon the written request (“Request”) of either party hereto, be resolved through good faith
negotiation between upper-level management of the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through negotiation within thirty (30) days after receipt by the receiving party of the Request (the
expiration of such thirty-day period being the “Dispute 

  

 145 








 
Date”), then the Dispute shall be finally settled by arbitration in accordance with the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of
Commerce (“ICC”) then in effect (the “ICC Rules”), except as modified herein. The place of arbitration shall be, and the award shall be rendered in, Hong Kong, and the language of the arbitration proceedings and of
the award shall be English. There shall be three (3) arbitrators. Each arbitrator shall (a) have a good background in common law practice, (b) be experienced in a construction project of the size and nature of the Project, and
(c) in no event be (i) involved in any way with any other casino or gaming project in Macau, (ii) related or involved in any way with any of the parties to this Agreement, (iii) an owner’s representative or contractor, or
(iv) a national of the country where Contractor’s parent or Owner’s parent were formed or maintain their respective principal place of business. Leighton, China/HK and China/Macau shall jointly nominate one arbitrator and Owner shall
nominate one arbitrator, in each case in accordance with the relevant provisions of the ICC Rules. The two arbitrators so nominated shall (following their confirmation by the ICC Court) nominate the third arbitrator, who shall serve as chair of the
tribunal, within 30 days of the confirmation of nomination of the second arbitrator. If either Owner or Contractor fails to timely nominate an arbitrator, then at the request of the other party, or if the two arbitrators appointed by the parties
fail to appoint the third arbitrator, then at the request of either party, any arbitrator not so nominated shall be appointed by the ICC Court of Arbitration in accordance with the ICC Rules. The arbitration hearing shall be held as soon as
practicable after the appointment of the arbitrators but in any case within six (6) months after signing, or finalization of, the Terms of Reference (as defined in the ICC Rules). Consistent with the expedited nature of arbitration, each party
will provide the other with copies of documents upon which it intends to rely in support of or in opposition to any claim or defense. The parties shall be entitled to the production of all documents relevant to the dispute; and on the request of any
party, the arbitrators shall order a party to produce all such relevant documents. Any arbitral award shall be final and binding upon the parties, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any claims, counterclaims,
issues, or accountings presented to the arbitral tribunal. To the fullest extent allowed by law, each party hereby waives any right to appeal such award. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. By agreeing to
arbitration, the parties do not intend to deprive any court of its jurisdiction to issue a pre-arbitral injunction, pre-arbitral attachment or other order in aid of arbitration proceedings and the enforcement of any award. Nevertheless, without
prejudice to such interim or provisional remedies as may be available under the jurisdiction of a national court, the arbitral tribunal shall itself have full authority to grant interim or provisional remedies, including authority to order the
parties to request that a court modify or vacate any interim or provisional remedy issued by a such court, and to award damages for the failure of any party to respect the arbitral tribunal’s orders to that effect. The arbitral tribunal shall
not, under any circumstances, assume the powers of an amiable compositeur or decide ex aequo et bono, but shall reach its decision in accordance with the terms of the Contract and applicable Laws. This agreement to arbitrate shall be
binding upon the successors, assigns and any trustee or receiver of each party. The existence of any claim, dispute or legal proceeding shall not relieve Contractor from its obligation to properly perform its Work as set forth in the Contract
Documents. 
  

 146 








 22.2 Consolidation of Disputes. In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related
disputes, all disputes between Owner and Contractor that arise under or in connection with the Contract or any other agreements entered into by these parties (including all Disputes, as defined in this Agreement) that are being arbitrated under this
Article 22 may be brought in a single arbitration under this Article 22. Accordingly, upon the request of any party to an arbitration proceeding constituted under this Article 22, the arbitral tribunal shall consolidate such
arbitration proceeding with, or order the hearing of such proceeding together with, any other arbitration proceeding relating to such disputes or Disputes, provided that the arbitral tribunal shall first determine that (i) there are issues of
fact or law common to the proceedings so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings, and (ii) no party would be unduly prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise. Where
different tribunals have been or are in the process of being appointed in relation to such proceedings, the decision as to whether the proceedings are to be consolidated or heard at the same time shall be made by the arbitral tribunal which was
first in time to be fully appointed in respect of those proceedings. If consolidation is so ordered, the parties to each of the proceedings that is the subject of the order will be treated as having consented to the consolidated proceedings and the
disputes or Disputes in question being finally decided by the arbitral tribunal which ordered the consolidation. The entities comprising Contractor hereunder shall be treated as one party for all purposes of this Article 22. 
  
 22.3 Legal Fees. The non-prevailing party (in accordance with the
determination of the arbitral tribunal) in any proceeding instituted pursuant to this Article 22 shall promptly pay to the prevailing party all costs, disbursements and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing party in
connection with such proceeding; provided that if the arbitral tribunal shall award costs otherwise, the parties shall comply with such decision and allocation. 
  

22.4 Continued Performance. In the event of a Dispute under this Agreement or any other Contract Document, the parties shall not be excused from
and shall continue to perform their respective obligations thereunder; provided, however, that if a Dispute relates to the payment of an amount by Owner under this Agreement, Owner shall be entitled to withhold the payment of such disputed amount
pending resolution of the Dispute. In the event the arbitral tribunal shall have determined that any amounts so withheld by Owner shall have been wrongfully withheld in violation of this Agreement, Contractor shall be entitled to interest at the
then existing prime rate of Bank of China (Hong Kong) plus one percent (1%) from the date when such amounts should have been paid by Owner through the date when such amounts are finally received by Contractor. 
  
 22.5 Governing Law. The Contract Documents shall be governed by, and
construed in accordance with, the laws of England (including, without limitation, the laws specifying the nature and scope of the warranties to be provided by Contractor hereunder). 
  

 147 








 22.6 Non-Waiver. In resolving disputes arising out of this Contract, it is expressly agreed that
no action or failure to act by Owner, Contractor or any agent, representative, employee or officer of either of them (including Owner’s Representative and Contractor’s Representative) shall constitute a waiver of any right or duty afforded
to either party in the Contract Documents. It is likewise expressly agreed that any action or failure to act by either party shall not constitute approval of or acquiescence in any breach of this Contract, except as are specifically agreed to in
writing by the parties’ corporate officers. 
  
 ARTICLE
XXIII. 
 PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND USE OF OWNER’S NAME 
  
 23.1 Proprietary Information. Owner considers all information (regardless of form) pertaining to the Project to be
confidential and proprietary, including information which is prepared or developed by or through Contractor, Owner, Owner’s Consultants or Owner’s Contractors, unless otherwise stated to Contractor in writing. Contractor shall not, and
shall not allow, suffer or permit any Subcontractors or Vendors to, disclose any such information without Owner’s prior written consent. Contractor shall obtain similar written agreements from each and every Subcontractor and Vendor as Owner
may reasonably request. 
  
 23.2 Advertising and Use of
Owner’s Name. Contractor shall not issue any news releases or any other advertising pertaining to the Work or the Project, including advertising its participation in the Project, without obtaining Owner’s prior written approval.

approval. Contractor shall require its Subcontractors and Vendors to comply with the requirements imposed upon Contractor by this Article 23, including obtaining Owner’s prior written consent to the form and content of any promotional or

 ARTICLE XXIV. 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 24.1 Assignment. Because of the special experience Contractor has represented it has and unique nature of the services to be rendered by Contractor under the Contract Documents, Contractor shall not assign or
transfer its interest in the Contract or delegate its obligations thereunder, or subcontract the entire Work either as a whole or in the aggregate, without the prior written consent of Owner. Any purported assignment or transfer by 

  

 148 








 
Contractor without such consent shall be null and void. Owner may at any time and from time to time, upon notice to but without consent of Contractor, assign
or transfer the Contract or delegate its obligations to an affiliate or subsidiary of Owner, or to an entity which acquires all or substantially all of Owner’s interest in the Project or all or substantially all of the assets or member
interests of Owner, and/or change its name from time to time. So long as Owner’s assignee or transferee assumes in writing Owner’s obligations and liabilities under the Contract, and Owner represents in writing at the time of assignment or
transfer that the assignee or transferee has at least the same financial status as Owner does at the time of the assignment or transfer, Owner shall thereafter be released from its obligations and liabilities under the Contract. 
  
 24.2 Subordination. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Contract Documents, Contractor agrees for itself and for every Subcontractor and Vendor and every other person performing any services or providing any materials relating to the Work, that any and all liens and lien rights and benefits (including
enforcement rights) Contractor and any of the other may have under applicable law shall at all times be subordinate and junior to any and all liens, security interests, mortgages, deeds of trust and other encumbrances of any kind (on the Site and
otherwise) in favor of any of Owner’s Lenders (“Lender Liens”), notwithstanding that Work may be or is commenced or done on, and materials may be or are furnished to, the Site prior to any Lender Liens being imposed upon or
recorded against the Site or any of Owner’s assets and before expiration of the time fixed under applicable law for exercising mechanics’ and materialmen’s lien rights, and hereby renounces, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any
preferential rights that Contractor and its Subcontractors and Vendors, and any other person performing any services or providing any materials relating to the Work, would otherwise have with respect to its lien rights or otherwise. Contractor
shall, and Contractor shall require every Subcontractor and Vendor at every tier, and any other person performing services or providing materials relating to the Work to, sign and deliver to Owner and Owner’s Lenders from time to time upon
request by Owner or any of Owner’s Lenders, written acknowledgments and restatements of the provisions of this Section 24.2 and the subordination and renunciation described herein. 
  
 24.3 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Contract shall be binding upon
and inure solely to the benefit of the parties hereto and their successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity the right to enforce any term of it or any legal
