                                PROGRESS PAYMENTS

5.1 Based upon Applications for Payment submitted by the Contractor to the
Construction Manager, and upon Project Applications and Certificates for Payment
issued by the Construction Manager and Architect, the Owner shall make progress
payments on account of the Contract Sum to the Contractor as provided below and
elsewhere in the Contract Documents.

5.2 The period covered by each Application for Payment shall be one calendar
month ending on the last day of the month, or as follows:

5.3 Provided an Application for Payment is submitted to the Construction Manager
not later than the 25th day of a month, the Owner shall make payment to the
Contractor not later than the 30th day of the following month. If an Application
for Payment is received by the Construction Manager after the application date
fixed above, payment shall be made by the Owner not later than 30 days after the
Construction Manager receives the Application for Payment.

5.4 Each Application for Payment shall be based upon the Schedule of Values
submitted by the Contractor in accordance with the Contract Documents. The
Schedule of Values shall allocate the entire Contract Sum among the various
portions of the Work and be prepared in such form and supported by such data to
substantiate its accuracy as the Construction Manager or Architect may require.
This schedule, unless objected to by the Construction Manager or Architect,
shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for
Payment.

5.5 Applications for Payment shall indicate the percentage of completion of each
portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the Application for
Payment.

5.6 Subject to the provisions of the Contract Documents, the amount of each
progress payment shall be computed as follows:

5.6.1 Take that portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable to completed Work
as determined by multiplying the percentage completion of each portion of the
Work by the share of the total Contract Sum allocated to that portion of the
Work in the Schedule of Values, less retainage of ten percent (10%). Pending
final determination of cost to the Owner of changes in the Work, amounts not in
dispute may be included as provided in Subparagraph 7.3.7 of the General
Conditions;

5.6.2 Add that portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable to materials and
equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation
in the completed construction (or, if approved in advance by the Owner, suitably
stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing), less retainage of ten
percent (10%);

5.6.3 Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by the Owner; and

5.6.4 Subtract amounts, if any, for which the Construction Manager or Architect
has withheld or nullified a Certificate for Payment as provided in Paragraph 9.5
of the General Conditions.

5.7 The progress payment amount determined in accordance with Paragraph 5.6
shall be further modified under the following circumstances:

5.7.1 Add, upon Substantial Completion of the Work, a sum sufficient to increase
the total payments to one hundred percent (100%) of the Contract Sum, less such
amounts as the Construction Manager recommends and the Architect determines for
incomplete Work and unsettled claims; and

5.7.2 Add, if final completion of the Work is thereafter materially delayed
through no fault of the Contractor, any additional amounts payable in accordance
with Subparagraph 9.10.3 of the General Conditions.

5.8 Reduction or limitation of retainage, if any, shall be as follows:

(If it is intended, prior to Substantial Completion of the entire work, to
reduce or limit the retainage resulting from the percentages inserted in
Subparagraphs 5.6.1 and 5.6.2 above and this is not explained elsewhere in the
Contract Documents, insert here provisions for such reduction or limitation.)
