§ 1.3.2.2 Upon
execution of this Agreement, the Architect grants to the Owner a nonexclusive
license to reproduce the Architect’s Instruments of Service solely for purposes
of constructing, using and maintaining the Project, provided that the Owner
shall comply with all obligations, including prompt payment of all sums when
due, under this Agreement.  The Architect
shall obtain similar nonexclusive licenses from the Architect’s consultants
consistent with this Agreement.  Any
termination of this Agreement prior to completion of the Project shall
terminate this license.  Upon such
termination, the Owner shall refrain from making further reproductions of
Instruments of Service and shall return to the Architect within seven days of
termination all originals and reproductions in the Owner’s possession or
control.  If and upon the date the
Architect is adjudged in default of this Agreement, the foregoing license shall
be deemed terminated and replaced by a second, nonexclusive license permitting
the Owner to authorize other similarly credentialed design professionals to reproduce
and, where permitted by law, to make changes, corrections or additions to the
Instruments of Service solely for purposes of completing, using and maintaining
the Project.

 

§ 1.3.2.3
Except for the licenses granted in Section 1.3.2.2, no other license or
right shall be deemed granted or implied under this Agreement.  The Owner shall not assign, delegate,

authorize the Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors and material or
equipment suppliers to reproduce applicable portions of the Instruments of
Service appropriate to and for use in their execution of the Work by license
granted in Section 1.3.2.2. Submission or distribution of Instruments of
Service to meet official regulatory requirements or for similar purposes in
connection with the Project is not to be construed as publication in derogation
of the reserved rights of the Architect and the Architect’s consultants.  The Owner shall not use the Instruments of
Service for future additions or alterations to this Project or for other
projects, unless the Owner obtains the prior written agreement of the Architect
and the Architect’s consultants.  Any
unauthorized use of the Instruments of Service shall be at the Owner’s sole
risk and without liability to the Architect and the Architect’s consultants.

 

§ 1.3.2.4 Prior
to the Architect providing to the Owner any Instruments of Service in
electronic form or the Owner providing to the Architect any electronic data for
incorporation into the Instruments of Service, the Owner and the Architect
shall by separate written agreement ser forth the specific conditions governing
the format of such Instruments of Service or electronic data, including any
special limitations or licenses not otherwise provided in this Agreement.

 

§ 1.3.3 CHANGE IN SERVICES

 

§ 1.3.3.1
Change in Services of the Architect, including services required of the Architect’s
consultants, may be accomplished after execution of this Agreement, without
invalidating the Agreement, if manually agreed in writing.  If required by circumstances beyond the
Architect’s control, or if the Architect’s services are affected as described
in Section 1.3.3.2.  In the absence
of mutual agreement in writing, the Architect shall notify the Owner prior to
providing such services.  If the Owner

§ 2.1.7
EVALUATION OF BUDGET AND COST OF THE WORK

 

§ 2.1.7.1 When
the Project requirements have been sufficiently identified, the Architect shall
prepare a preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work.  This estimate may be based on current area, volume
or similar conceptual estimating techniques. 
As the design process progresses through the end of the preparation of
the Construction Documents, the Architect shall update and refine the
preliminary estimate of the Cost of the Work. 
The Architect shall advise the Owner of any adjustments to previous
estimates of the Cost of the Work indicated by changes in Project requirements
or general market conditions.  If at any
time the Architect’s estimate of the Cost of the Work exceeds the Owner’s
budget, the Architect shall make appropriate recommendations to the Owner to
adjust the Project’s size, quality or budget, and the Owner shall cooperate
with the Architect in making such adjustments.

 

§ 2.1.7.2 Evaluations
of the Owner’s budget for the Project, the preliminary estimate of the Cost of
the Work and updated estimates of the Cost of the Work prepared by the
Architect represent the Architect’s judgment as a design professional familiar
with the construction industry.  It is
recognized, however, that neither the Architect nor the Owner has control over
the cost of labor, materials or equipment, over the Contractor’s methods of
determining bid prices, or over competitive bidding, market or negotiating
conditions.  Accordingly, the Architect
cannot and does not warrant or represent that bids or negotiated prices will
not vary from the Owner’s budget for the Project or from any estimate of the
Cost of the Work or evaluation prepared or agreed to by the Architect.

 

§ 2.1.7.3
In preparing estimates of the Cost of the Work, the Architect shall be
permitted to include contingencies for design, bidding and price escalation; to
determine what materials, equipment, component systems and types of
construction are to be included in the Contract Documents; to make reasonable
adjustments in the scope of the Project and to include in the Contract
Documents alternate bids as may be necessary to adjust the estimated Cost of
the Work to meet the Owner’s budget for the Cost of the Work. If an increase in
the Contract Sum occurring after execution of the Contract between the Owner
and the Contractor causes the budget for the Cost of the Work to be exceeded
that budget shall be increased accordingly.

 

§ 2.1.7.4
If bidding or negotiation has not commenced within 90 days after the Architect
submits the Construction Documents to the Owner, the budget for the Cost of the
Work shall be adjusted to reflect changes in the general level of prices in the
construction industry.

 

§ 2.1.7.5
If the budget for the Cost of the Work is exceeded by the lowest bona fide bid
or negotiated proposal, the Owner shall:

 

.1             give written approval
of an increase in the budget for the Cost of the Work;

.2             authorize rebidding
or renegotiating of the Project within a reasonable time;

.3             terminate in
accordance with Section 1.3.8.5; or

.4             cooperate in revising
the Project scope and quality as required to reduce the Cost of the Work.

 

§ 2.1.7.6
If the Owner chooses to proceed under Section 2.1.7.5.4, the Architect, without
additional compensation, shall modify the documents for which the Architect is
responsible under this Agreement as necessary to comply with the budget for the
Cost of the Work.  The modification of
such documents shall be the limit of the Architect’s responsibility under this
Section 2.1.7.  The Architect shall be
entitled to compensation in accordance with this Agreement for all services
performed whether or not construction is commenced.

 

ARTICLE 2.2 SUPPORTING SERVICES

§ 2.6.2.1 The
Architect, as a representative of the Owner, shall visit the site at intervals
appropriate to the stage of the Contractor’s operations, or as otherwise agreed
by the Owner and the Architect in Article 2.8, (1) to become
generally familiar with and to keep the Owner informed about the progress and
quality of the portion of the Work completed. (2) to endeavor to guard the
Owner against defects and deficiencies in the Work, and (3) to determine
in general if the Work is being performed in a manner indicating that the Work,
when fully completed, will be in accordance with the Contract Documents.  However, the Architect shall not be required
to make exhaustive or continuous on site Inspections to check the quality or
quantity of the Work.  The Architect
shall neither have control over or charge of, nor be responsible for, the
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for safety
precautions and programs in connection with the Work, since these are solely
the Contractor’s rights and responsibilities under the Contract Documents.

§ 2.6.3 CERTIFICATION OF PAYMENTS TO
CONTRACTOR

 

§ 2.6.3.1 The
Architect shall review and certify the amounts due the Contractor and shall
issue Certificates for Payment in such amounts. 
The Architect’s certification for payment shall constitute a
representation to the Owner, based on the Architect’s evaluation of the Work as
provided in Section 2.6.2 and on the data comprising the Contractor’s
Application for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated
and that, to the best of the Architect’s knowledge, information and belief, the
quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents.  The foregoing representations are subject (1) to
an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon
Substantial Completion, (2) to results of subsequent tests and
inspections, (3) to correction of minor deviations from the Contract
Documents prior to completion, and (4) to specific qualifications
expressed by the Architect.

 

§ 2.6.3.2 The
issuance of a Certificate for Payment shall not be a representation that the
Architect has (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to
check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed construction
means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies
of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and other
data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor’s right to payment,
or (4) ascertained how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money
previously paid on account of the Contract Sum.

 

§ 2.6.3.3 The
Architect shall maintain a record of the Contractor’s Applications for Payment.

 

§ 2.6.4 SUBMITTALS

 

§ 2.6.4.1 The
Architect shall review and approve or take other appropriate action upon the
Contractor’s submittals such as Shop Drawings, Product Data and Samples, but
only for the limited purpose of checking for conformance with information given
and the design concept expressed in the Contract Documents.  The Architect’s action shall be taken with
such reasonable promptness as to cause no delay in the Work or in the activities
of the Owner, Contractor or separate contractors while allowing sufficient time
in the Architect’s professional judgment to permit adequate review.  Review of such submittals is not conducted
for the purpose of determining the accuracy and completeness of other details
such as dimensions and quantities, or for substantiating instructions for
installation or performance of equipment or systems, all of which remain the
responsibility of the Contractor as required by the Contract Documents.  The Architect’s review shall not constitute
approval of safety precautions or, unless otherwise specifically stated by the
Architect, of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures.  The Architect’s approval of
a specific item shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is
a component.

 

§ 2.6.4.1.1
Upon review of Contractor provided Shop Drawings, the Architect shall affix a
stamp indicating the Architect’s comments to the Contractor regarding the
submittal.  In addition to the Architect’s
evaluation of the submittal, this stamp shall contain the following statement:

 

Corrections or comments made on the shop
drawings during this review do not relieve the Contractor from compliance with
requirements of the drawings and specifications.  This check is only for review of the general
conformance with the design concept of the project and general compliance with
the information given in the Contract Documents.  The Contractor is responsible for confirming
and correlating all quantities and dimensions, selecting fabrication processes
and techniques of construction, coordinating his or her work with that of all
other trades and performing all work in a safe and satisfactory manner.”

 

An impression made from the Architect’s Shop Drawings Review stamp is
provided as an attachment to this agreement.

 

§ 2.6.4.2 The
Architect shall maintain a record of submittals and copies of submittals
supplied by the Contractor in accordance with the requirements of the Contract
Documents.

§ 2.6.4.3 If professional design services or
certifications by a design professional related to systems, materials or
equipment are specifically required of the Contractor by the Contract
Documents, the Architect shall specify appropriate performance and design
criteria that such services must satisfy. Shop Drawings and other submittals
related to the Work designed or certified by the design professional retained
by the Contractor shall bear such professional’s written approval when
submitted to the Architect.  The
Architect shall be entitled to rely upon the adequacy, accuracy and
completeness of the services, certifications or approvals performed by such
design professionals.

 

§ 2.6.5 CHANGES IN THE WORK

 

§ 2.6.5.1 The Architect shall prepare Change Orders
and Construction Change Directives for the Owner’s approval and execution in
accordance with the Contract Documents. The Architect may authorize minor
changes in the Work not involving an adjustment in Contract Sum or an extension
of the Contract Time which are consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents.  If necessary, the Architect shall prepare,
reproduce and distribute Drawings and Specifications to describe Work to be
added, deleted or modified, as provided in Section 2.8.2.

 

§ 2.6.5.2 The Architect shall review properly
prepared, timely requests by the Owner or Contractor for changes in the Work,
including adjustments to the Contract Sum or Contract Time.  A properly prepared request for a change in
the Work shall be accompanied by sufficient supporting data and information to
permit the Architect to make a reasonable determination without extensive
investigation or preparation of additional drawings or specifications.  If the Architect determines that requested
changes in the Work are not materially different from the requirements of the
Contract Documents, the Architect may issue an order for a minor change in the
Work or recommend to the Owner that the requested change be denied.

 

§ 2.6.5.3 If the Architect determines that
implementation of the requested changes would result in a material change to
the Contract that may cause an adjustment in the Contract Time or Contract Sum,
the Architect shall make a recommendation to the Owner, who may authorize
further investigation of such change. 
Upon such authorization, and based upon information furnished by the
Contractor, if any, the Architect shall estimate the additional cost and time
that might result from such change, including any additional costs attributable
to a Change in Services of the Architect. 
With the Owner’s approval, the Architect shall incorporate those
estimates into a Change Order or other appropriate documentation for the Owner’s
execution or negotiation with the Contractor.

 

§ 2.6.5.4 The Architect shall maintain records
relative to changes in the Work.

 

§ 2.6.6. PROJECT COMPLETION

determine the date or dates of Substantial Completion and the date of final
completion, shall receive from the Contractor and forward to the Owner, for the
Owner’s review and records, written warranties and related documents required
by the Contract Documents and assembled by the Contractor, and shall issue a
final Certificate for Payment based upon a final inspection indicating the Work
complies with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

 

§ 2.6.6.2 The Architect’s inspection shall be
conducted with the Owner’s Designated Representative to check conformance of
the Work with the requirements of the Contract Documents and to verify the
accuracy and completeness of the list submitted by the Contractor of Work to be
completed or corrected.

 

§ 2.6.6.3 When the Work is found to be substantially
complete, the Architect shall inform the Owner about the balance of the
Contract Sum remaining to be paid the Contractor, including any amounts to pay
for final completion or correction of the Work.

 

§ 2.6.6.4 The Architect shall receive from the
Contractor and forward to the Owner: (1) consent of surety or sureties, if any,
to reduction in or partial release of retainage or the making of final payment
and (2) affidavits, receipts, releases and waivers of liens or bonds
indemnifying the Owner against liens.

deficiencies. In such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued
deducting from payments then or thereafter due the Contractor the reasonable
cost of correcting such deficiencies, including Owner’s expenses and
compensation for the Architect’s additional services made necessary by such
default, neglect or failure. Such action by the Owner and amounts charged to

§ 3.2
REVIEW OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS AND FIELD CONDITIONS BY CONTRACTOR

 

§ 3.2.1 Since the Contract Documents are
complementary, before starting each portion of the Work, the Contractor shall
carefully study and compare the various Drawings and other Contract Documents
relative to that portion of the Work, as well as the information furnished by
the Owner pursuant to Section 2.2.3, shall take field measurements of any
existing conditions related to that portion of the Work and shall observe any
conditions at the site affecting it. These obligations are for the purpose of
facilitating construction by the Contractor and are not for the purpose of
discovering errors, omissions, or inconsistencies in the Contract Documents;
however, any errors, inconsistencies or omissions discovered by the Contractor
shall be reported promptly to the Architect as a request for information in
such form as the Architect may require.

 

§ 3.2.2 Any design errors or omissions noted by the
Contractor during this review shall be reported promptly to the Architect, but
it is recognized that the Contractor’s review is made in the Contractor’s
capacity as a contractor and not as a licensed design professional unless
otherwise specifically provided in the Contract Documents. The Contractor is
not required to ascertain that the Contract Documents are in accordance with
applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, building codes, and rules and
regulations, but any nonconformity discovered by or made known to the
Contractor shall be reported promptly to the Architect.

 

§ 3.2.3 If the Contractor believes that additional
cost or time is involved because of clarifications or instructions issued by
the Architect in response to the Contractor’s notices or requests for
information pursuant to Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2, the Contractor shall make
Claims as provided in Sections 4.3.6 and 4.3.7. If the Contractor fails to
perform the obligations of Sections 3.2.1 and 3.2.2, the Contractor shall pay
such costs and damages to the Owner as would have been avoided if the
Contractor had performed such obligations. The Contractor shall not be liable
to the Owner or Architect for damages resulting from errors, inconsistencies or
omissions in the Contract Documents or for differences between field measurements
or conditions and the Contract Documents unless the Contractor recognized such
error, inconsistency, omission or difference and knowingly failed to report it
to the Architect.

 

§ 3.3 SUPERVISION
AND CONSTRUCTION PROCEDURES

 

§ 3.3.1 The Contractor shall supervise, direct,
and/or perform the Work, using the Contractor’s best skill and attention. The
Contractor shall be solely responsible for and have control over construction
means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures and for coordinating all
portions of the Work under the Contract, unless the Contract Documents give
other specific instructions concerning these matters. If the Contract Documents
give specific instructions concerning construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures, the Contractor shall evaluate the jobsite safety
thereof and, except as stated below, shall be fully and solely responsible for
the jobsite safety of such means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures.
If the Contractor determines that such means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures may not be safe, the Contractor shall give timely written notice to
the Owner and Architect and shall not proceed with that portion of the Work
without further written instructions from the Architect. If the Contractor is
then instructed to proceed with the required means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures without acceptance of changes proposed by the
Contractor, the Owner shall be solely responsible for any resulting loss or
damage.

 

§ 3.3.2 The Contractor shall be responsible to the
Owner for acts and omissions of the Contractor’s employees, Subcontractors,
Sub-Subcontractors and their agents and employees, and other persons or
entities performing portions of the Work for or on behalf of the Contractor or
any of its Subcontractors or Sub-Subcontractors.

 

§ 3.3.3 The Contractor shall be responsible for
inspection of portions of Work already performed to determine that such
portions are in proper condition to receive subsequent Work.

 

§ 3.4
LABOR AND MATERIALS

 

§ 3.4.1 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract
Documents, the Contractor shall provide and pay for labor, materials,
equipment, tools, construction equipment and machinery, water, heat, utilities,
transportation, and other facilities and services necessary for proper
execution and completion of the Work, whether temporary or permanent and
whether or not incorporated or to be incorporated in the Work.

 

§ 3.4.2 The Contractor may make substitutions only
with the consent of the Owner, after evaluation by the Architect and the Owner
and in accordance with a Change Order.

§ 3.12.4 Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples and
similar submittals are not Contract Documents. The purpose of their submittal
is to demonstrate for those portions of the Work for which submittals are
required by the Contract Documents the way by which the Contractor proposes to
conform to the information given and the design concept expressed in the
Contract Documents. Review by the Architect is subject to the limitations of
Section 4.2.7. Informational submittals upon which the Architect is not
expected to take responsive action may be so identified in the Contract
Documents. Submittals which are not required by the Contract Documents may be
returned by the Architect without action.

 

§ 3.12.5 The Contractor shall review for compliance
with the Contract Documents, approve and submit to the Architect Shop Drawings,
Product Data, Samples and similar submittals required by the Contract Documents
with reasonable promptness and in such sequence as to cause no delay in the
Work or in the activities of the Owner or of separate contractors. Submittals
which are not marked as reviewed for compliance with the Contract Documents and
approved by the Contractor may be returned by the Architect without action.

 

§ 3.12.6 By approving and submitting Shop Drawings,
Product Data, Samples and similar submittals, the Contractor represents that
the Contractor has determined and verified materials, field measurements and
field construction criteria related thereto, or will do so, and has checked and
coordinated the information contained within such submittals with the
requirements of the Work and of the Contract Documents.

 

§ 3.12.7 The Contractor shall perform no portion of
the Work for which the Contract Documents require submittal and review of Shop
Drawings, Product Data, Samples or similar submittals until the respective
submittal has been approved by the Architect.

 

§ 3.12.8 The Work shall be in accordance with
approved submittals except that the Contractor shall not be relieved of
responsibility for deviations from requirements of the Contract Documents by
the Architect’s approval of Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples or similar
submittals unless the Contractor has specifically informed the Architect in
writing of such deviation at the time of submittal and (1) the Architect has
given written approval to the specific deviation as a minor change in the Work,
or (2) a Change Order or Construction Change Directive has been issued authorizing
the deviation. The Contractor shall not be relieved of responsibility for
errors or omissions in Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples or similar
submittals by the Architect’s approval thereof.

 

§ 3.12.9 The Contractor shall direct specific
attention, in writing or on resubmitted Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples or
similar submittals, to revisions other than those requested by the Architect on
previous submittals. In the absence of such written notice the Architect’s
approval of a resubmission shall not apply to such revisions.

 

§ 3.12.10 The Contractor shall not be required to
provide professional services which constitute the practice of architecture or
engineering unless such services are specifically required by the Contract
Documents for a portion of the Work or unless the Contractor needs to provide
such services in order to carry out the Contractor’s responsibilities for
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences and procedures. The
Contractor shall not be required to provide professional services in violation
of applicable law. If professional design services or certifications by a
design professional related to systems, materials or equipment are specifically
required of the Contractor by the Contract Documents, the Owner and the Architect
will specify all performance and design criteria that such services must
satisfy. The Contractor shall cause such services or certifications to be
provided by a properly licensed design professional, whose signature and seal
shall appear on all drawings, calculations, specifications, certifications,
Shop Drawings and other submittals prepared by such professional. Shop Drawings
and other submittals related to the Work designed or certified by such
professional, if prepared by others, shall bear such professional’s written
approval when submitted to the Architect. The Owner and the Architect shall be
entitled to rely upon the adequacy, accuracy and completeness of the services,
certifications or approvals performed by such design professionals, provided
the Owner and Architect have specified to the Contractor all performance and
design criteria that such services must satisfy. Pursuant to this Section
3.12.10, the Architect will review, approve or take other appropriate action on
submittals only for the limited purpose of checking for conformance with
information given and the design concept expressed in the Contract Documents.
The Contractor shall not be responsible for the adequacy of the performance or
design criteria required by the Contract Documents.

 

§ 3.13
USE OF SITE

 

§ 3.13.1 The Contractor shall confine operations at
the site to areas permitted by law, ordinances, permits and the Contract
Documents and shall not unreasonably encumber the site with materials or
equipment.

ARTICLE
4 ADMINISTRATION OF THE CONTRACT

 

§ 4.1
ARCHITECT

 

§ 4.1.1 The Architect is the person lawfully
licensed to practice architecture or an entity lawfully practicing architecture
identified as such in the Agreement and is referred to throughout the Contract
Documents as if singular in number. The term “Architect” means the Architect or
the Architect’s authorized representative.

 

§ 4.1.2 Duties, responsibilities and limitations of
authority of the Architect as set forth in the Contract Documents shall not be
restricted, modified or extended without written consent of the Owner,
Contractor and Architect. Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

 

§ 4.1.3 If the employment of the Architect is
terminated, the Owner shall employ a new Architect against whom the Contractor
has no reasonable objection and whose status under the Contract Documents shall
be that of the former Architect.

 

§ 4.2
ARCHITECT’S ADMINISTRATION OF THE CONTRACT

 

§ 4.2.1 The Architect will provide administration of
the Contract as described in the Contract Documents, and will be an Owner’s
representative (1) during construction, (2) until final payment is due and (3)
with the Owner’s concurrence, from time to time during the one-year period for
correction of Work described in Section 12.2. The Architect will have authority
to act on behalf of the Owner only to the extent provided in the Contract
Documents, unless otherwise modified in writing in accordance with other
provisions of the Contract.

 

§ 4.2.2 The Architect, as a representative of the
Owner, will visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of the
Contractor’s operations (1) to become generally familiar with and to keep the
Owner informed about the progress and quality of the portion of the Work
completed, (2) to endeavor to guard the Owner against defects and deficiencies
in the Work, and (3) to determine in general if the Work is being performed in
a manner indicating that the Work, when fully completed, will be in accordance
with the Contract Documents. However, the Architect will not be required to
make exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or
quantity of the Work. The Architect will neither have control over or charge
of, nor be responsible for, the construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures, or for the safety precautions and programs in
connection with the Work, since these are solely the Contractor’s rights and
responsibilities under the Contract Documents, except as provided in Section
3.3.1.

 

§ 4.2.3 The Architect will not be responsible for
the Contractor’s failure to perform the Work in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract Documents. The Architect will not have control
over or charge of and will not be responsible for acts or omissions of the
Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-Subcontractors or their agents or employees, or
any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work.

 

§ 4.2.4 Communications Facilitating Contract
Administration.  Except as otherwise
provided in the Contract Documents or when direct communications have been
specially authorized, the Owner and Contractor shall endeavor to communicate
with each other through the Architect about matters arising out of or relating
to the Contract. Communications by and with the Architect’s consultants shall
be through the Architect. Communications by and with Subcontractors,
Sub-Subcontractors and material suppliers shall be through the Contractor.
Communications by and with separate contractors shall be through the Owner.

 

§ 4.2.5

 

The
Architect shall review and certify the amounts due the Contractor and will
issue Certificates for Payment in such amounts in accordance with Article 12 of
the Agreement.

§ 4.2.6 The Architect will have authority to reject
Work that does not conform to the Contract Documents. Whenever the Architect
considers it necessary or advisable, the Architect will have authority to
require inspection or testing of the Work in accordance with Sections 13.5.2
and 13.5.3, whether or not such Work is fabricated, installed or completed.
However, neither this authority of the Architect nor a decision made in good
faith either to exercise or not to exercise such authority shall give rise to a
duty or responsibility of the Architect to the Contractor, Subcontractors,
Sub-Subcontractors, material and equipment suppliers, their agents or
employees, or other persons or entities performing portions of the Work.

 

§ 4.2.7 The Architect will review and approve or
take other appropriate action upon the Contractor’s submittals such as Shop
Drawings, Product Data and Samples, but only for the limited purpose of
checking for conformance with information given and the design concept
expressed in the Contract Documents. The Architect’s action will be taken with
such reasonable promptness as to cause no delay in the Work or in the
activities of the Owner, Contractor or separate contractors, while allowing
sufficient time in the Architect’s professional judgment to permit adequate
review. Review of such submittals is not conducted for the purpose of
determining the accuracy and completeness of other details such as dimensions
and quantities, or for substantiating instructions for installation or
performance of equipment or systems, all of which remain the responsibility of
the Contractor as required by the Contract Documents. The Architect’s review of
the Contractor’s submittals shall not relieve the Contractor of the obligations
under Sections 3.3, 3.5 and 3.12. The Architect’s review shall not constitute
approval of safety precautions or, unless otherwise specifically stated by the
Architect, of any construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures. The Architect’s approval of a specific item shall not indicate
approval of an assembly of which the item is a component.

 

§ 4.2.8 The Architect will prepare Change Orders and
Construction Change Directives, and may authorize minor changes in the Work as
provided in Section 7.4.

 

§ 4.2.9 The Architect will conduct inspections to
determine after approval by the Owner, the date or dates of Substantial
Completion and the date of final completion, will receive and forward to the
Owner, for the Owner’s review and records, written warranties and related
documents required by the Contract and assembled by the Contractor, and will
issue a final Certificate for Payment upon compliance with the requirements of
the Contract Documents.

 

§ 4.2.10 If the Owner and Architect agree, the
Architect will provide one or more project representatives to assist in
carrying out the Architect’s responsibilities at the site.

 

§ 4.2.11 The Architect will interpret and decide
matters concerning performance under and requirements of, the Contract
Documents on written request of either the Owner or Contractor. The Architect’s
response to such requests will be made in writing within any time limits agreed
upon or otherwise with reasonable promptness. If no agreement is made
concerning the time within which interpretations required of the Architect
shall be furnished in compliance with this Section 4.2, then delay shall not be
recognized on account of failure by the Architect to furnish such
interpretations until 15 days after written request is made for them.

 

§ 4.2.12 Interpretations and decisions of the
Architect will be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable from
the Contract Documents and will be in writing or in the form of drawings. When
making such interpretations and initial decisions, the Architect will endeavor
to secure faithful performance by both Owner and Contractor, will not show
partiality to either and will not be liable for results of interpretations or
decisions so rendered in good faith.

 

§ 4.2.13 The Architect’s decisions after approval by
the Owner, on matters relating to aesthetic effect will be final if consistent
with the intent expressed in the Contract Documents.

 

§ 4.3
CLAIMS AND DISPUTES

 

§ 4.3.1 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 the Owner and Contractor arising out of or relating to the Contract.
Claims must be initiated by written notice. The responsibility to substantiate
Claims shall rest with the party making the Claim.

§ 4.3.2 Time Limits on Claims. Claims by either
party must be initiated within 21 days after occurrence of the event giving
rise to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first recognizes the
condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later. Claims must be
initiated by written notice to the Architect and the other party.

 

§ 4.3.3 Continuing Contract Performance. Pending
final resolution of a Claim except as otherwise agreed in writing or as
provided in Section 9.7.1 and Article 14, the Contractor shall proceed
diligently with performance of the Contract and the Owner shall continue to
make payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.

 

§ 4.3.4 Claims for Concealed or Unknown Conditions.
If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1) subsurface or otherwise
concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in
the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature,
which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally
recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for
in the Contract Documents, then notice by the observing party shall be given to
the other party promptly before conditions are disturbed and in no event later
than 21 days after first observance of the conditions. The Architect will
promptly investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause
an increase or decrease in the Contractor’s cost of, or time required for,
performance of any part of the Work, will recommend an appropriate adjustment
in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Architect determines that
the conditions at the site are not materially different from those indicated in
the Contract Documents and that no change in the terms of the Contract is
justified, the Architect shall so notify the Owner and Contractor in writing,
stating the reasons. Claims by either party in opposition to such determination
must be made within 21 days after the Architect has given notice of the
decision. If the conditions encountered are materially different, the Contract Sum
and Contract Time shall be equitably adjusted, but if the Owner and Contractor
cannot agree on an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the
adjustment shall be referred to the Architect for initial determination,
subject to further proceedings pursuant to Section 4.4.

 

§ 4.3.5 Claims for Additional Cost.  If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for an
increase in the Contract Sum, written notice as provided herein shall be given
before proceeding to execute the Work. Prior notice is not required for Claims
relating to an emergency endangering life or property arising under Section
10.6.

 

§ 4.3.6 If the Contractor believes additional cost
is involved for reasons including but not limited to (1) a written
interpretation from the Architect, (2) an order by the Owner to stop the Work
where the Contractor was not at fault, (3) a written order for a minor change
in the Work issued by the Architect, (4) failure of payment by the Owner, (5)
termination of the Contract by the Owner, (6) Owner’s suspension or (7) other
reasonable grounds, Claim shall be filed in accordance with this Section 4.3.

 

§ 4.3.7 Claims for Additional Time

 

§ 4.3.7.1 If the Contractor wishes to make Claim for
an increase in the Contract Time, written notice as provided herein shall be
given. The Contractor’s Claim shall include an estimate of cost and of probable
effect of delay on progress of the Work. In the case of a continuing delay only
one Claim is necessary.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

§ 4.3.10 Claims for Consequential Damages.  The Contractor and Owner waive Claims against
each other for consequential damages arising out of or relating to this
Contract. This mutual waiver includes:

.1                                      damages incurred by the Owner for rental
expenses, for losses of use, income, profit, financing, business and
reputation, and for loss of management or employee productivity or of the
services of such persons; and

.2                                      damages incurred by the Contractor for
principal office expenses including the compensation of personnel stationed
there, for losses of financing, business and reputation, and for loss of profit
except anticipated profit arising directly from the Work.

 

This
mutual waiver is applicable, without limitation, to all consequential damages
due to either party’s termination in accordance with Article 14. Nothing
contained in this Section 4.3.10 shall be deemed to preclude an award of
liquidated direct damages, when applicable, in accordance with the requirements
of the Contract Documents.

 

§ 4.4
RESOLUTION OF CLAIMS AND DISPUTES

 

§ 4.4.1 Decision of Architect.  Claims, including those alleging an error or
omission by the Architect but excluding those arising under Sections 10.3
through 10.5, shall be referred initially to the Architect for decision. An
initial decision by the Architect shall be required as a condition precedent to
mediation, arbitration or litigation of all Claims between the Contractor and
Owner arising prior to the date final payment is due, unless 30 days have
passed after the Claim has been referred to the Architect with no decision
having been rendered by the Architect. The Architect will not decide disputes
between the Contractor and persons or entities other than the Owner.

 

§ 4.4.2 The Architect will review Claims and within
ten days of the receipt of the Claim take one or more of the following actions:
(1) request additional supporting data from the claimant or a response with
supporting data from the other party, (2) reject the Claim in whole or in part,
(3) approve the Claim, (4) suggest a compromise, or (5) advise the parties that
the Architect is unable to resolve the Claim if the Architect lacks sufficient
information to evaluate the merits of the Claim or if the Architect concludes
that, in the Architect’s sole discretion, it would be inappropriate for the
Architect to resolve the Claim.

 

§ 4.4.3 In evaluating Claims, the Architect may, but
shall not be obligated to, consult with or seek information from either party
or from persons with special knowledge or expertise who may assist the
Architect in rendering a decision. The Architect may request the Owner to
authorize retention of such persons at the Owner’s expense.

 

§ 4.4.4 If the Architect requests a party to provide
a response to a Claim or to furnish additional supporting data, such party
shall respond, within ten days after receipt of such request, and shall either
provide a response on the requested supporting data, advise the Architect when
the response or supporting data will be furnished or advise the Architect that
no supporting data will be furnished. Upon receipt of the response or
supporting data, if any, the Architect will either reject or approve the Claim
in whole or in part.

 

§ 4.4.5 The Architect will approve or reject Claims
by written decision, which shall state the reasons therefor and which shall
notify the parties of any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both.
The approval or rejection of a Claim by the Architect shall be final and
binding on the parties but subject to mediation and arbitration.

 

§ 4.4.6 When a written decision of the Architect
states that (1) the decision is final but subject to mediation and arbitration
and (2) a demand for arbitration of a Claim covered by such decision must be
made within 30 days after the date on which the party making the demand
receives the final written decision, then failure to demand arbitration within
said 30 days’ period shall result in the Architect’s decision becoming final
and binding upon the Owner and Contractor. If the Architect renders a decision
after arbitration proceedings have been initiated, such decision may be entered
as evidence, but shall not supersede arbitration proceedings unless the
decision is acceptable to all parties concerned.

 

§ 4.4.7 Upon receipt of a Claim against the
Contractor or at any time thereafter, the Architect or the Owner may, but is
not obligated to, notify the surety, if any, of the nature and amount of the
Claim. If the Claim relates to a possibility of a Contractor’s default, the
Architect or the Owner may, but is not obligated to, notify the surety and
request the surety’s assistance in resolving the controversy.

 

§ 4.4.8 If a Claim relates to or is the subject of a
mechanic’s lien, the party asserting such Claim may proceed in accordance with
applicable law to comply with the lien notice or filing deadlines prior to
resolution of the Claim by the Architect, by mediation or by arbitration.

§ 4.5
MEDIATION

 

§ 4.5.1 Any Claim arising out of or related to the
Contract, except Claims relating to aesthetic effect and except those waived as
provided for in Sections 4.3.10, 9.10.4 and 9.10.5 shall, after initial
decision by the Architect or 30 days after submission of the Claim to the
Architect, be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to arbitration or
the institution of legal or equitable proceedings by either party.

 

§ 4.5.2 The parties shall endeavor to resolve their
Claims by mediation which, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise, shall
be in accordance with the Construction Industry Mediation Rules of the American
Arbitration Association currently in effect. Request for mediation shall be
filed in writing with the other party to the Contract and with the American
Arbitration Association. The request may be made concurrently with the filing
of a demand for arbitration but, in such event, mediation shall proceed in
advance of arbitration or legal or equitable proceedings, which shall be stayed
pending mediation for a period of 60 days from the date of filing, unless
stayed for a longer period by agreement of the parties or court order.

 

§ 4.5.3 The parties shall share the mediator’s fee
and any filing fees equally. The mediation shall be held in the place where the
Project is located, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. Agreements
reached in mediation shall be enforceable as settlement agreements in any court
having jurisdiction thereof.

 

§ 4.6
ARBITRATION

 

§ 4.6.1 Any Claim arising out of or related to the
Contract, except Claims relating to aesthetic effect and except those waived as
provided for in Sections 4.3.10, 9.10.4 and 9.10.5, shall, after decision by
the Architect or 30 days after submission of the Claim to the Architect, be
subject to arbitration. Prior to arbitration, the parties shall endeavor to
resolve disputes by mediation in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.5.

 

§ 4.6.2 Claims not resolved by mediation shall be
decided by arbitration which, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise,
shall be in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the
American Arbitration Association currently in effect. The demand for
arbitration shall be filed in writing with the other party to the Contract and
with the American Arbitration Association, and a copy shall be filed with the
Architect.

 

§ 4.6.3 A demand for arbitration shall be made
within the time limits specified in Sections 4.4.6 and 4.6.1 as applicable, and
in other cases within a reasonable time after the Claim has arisen, and in no
event shall it be made after the date when institution of legal or equitable
proceedings based on such Claim would be barred by the applicable statute of
limitations as determined pursuant to Section 13.7.

 

§ 4.6.4 Limitation on Consolidation or Joinder.  No arbitration arising out of or relating to
the Contract shall include, by consolidation or joinder or in any other manner,
the Architect, the Architect’s employees or consultants, except by written
consent containing specific reference to the Agreement and signed by the
Architect, Owner, Contractor and any other person or entity sought to be
joined. No arbitration shall include, by consolidation or joinder or in any
other manner, parties other than the Owner, Contractor, a separate contractor
as described in Article 6 and other persons substantially involved in a common
question of fact or law whose presence is required if complete relief is to be
accorded in arbitration. No person or entity other than the Owner, Contractor
or a separate contractor as described in Article 6 shall be included as an
original third party or additional third party to an arbitration whose interest
or responsibility is insubstantial. Consent to arbitration involving an
additional person or entity shall not constitute consent to arbitration of a
Claim not described therein or with a person or entity not named or described
therein. The foregoing agreement to arbitrate and other agreements to arbitrate
with an additional person or entity duly consented to by parties to the
Agreement shall be specifically enforceable under applicable law in any court
having jurisdiction thereof.

 

§ 4.6.5 Claims and Timely Assertion of Claims.  The party filing a notice of demand for
arbitration must assert in the demand all Claims then known to that party on
which arbitration is permitted to be demanded.

 

§ 4.6.6 Judgment on Final Award.  The award rendered by the arbitrator or
arbitrators shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in accordance
with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

ARTICLE 5 SUBCONTRACTORS

 

§ 5.1
DEFINITIONS

 

§ 5.1.1 A Subcontractor is a person or entity who
has a direct contract with the Contractor to perform a portion of the Work at
the site. The term “Subcontractor” is referred to throughout the Contract
Documents as if singular in number and means a Subcontractor or an authorized
representative of the Subcontractor. The term “Subcontractor” does not include
a separate contractor or subcontractors of a separate contractor.

 

§ 5.1.2 A Sub-subcontractor is a person or entity
who has a direct or indirect contract with a Subcontractor to perform a portion
of the Work at the site. The term “Sub-subcontractor” is referred to throughout
the Contract Documents as if singular in number and means a Sub-subcontractor
or an authorized representative of the Sub-subcontractor.

 

§ 5.2
AWARD OF SUBCONTRACTS AND OTHER CONTRACTS FOR PORTIONS OF THE WORK

 

§ 5.2.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract
Documents or the bidding requirements, the Contractor, as soon as practicable
after award of the Contract, shall furnish in writing to the Owner through the
Architect the names of persons or entities (including those who are to furnish
materials or equipment fabricated to a special design) proposed for each
principal portion of the Work. The Architect will promptly reply to the
Contractor in writing stating whether or not the Owner or the Architect, after
due investigation, has reasonable objection to any such proposed person or
entity. Failure of the Owner or Architect to reply promptly shall constitute
notice of no reasonable objection.

 

§ 5.2.2 The Contractor shall not contract with a
proposed person or entity to whom the Owner or Architect has made reasonable
and timely objection. The Contractor shall not be required to contract with anyone
to whom the Contractor has made reasonable objection.

 

§ 5.2.3 If the Owner or Architect has reasonable
objection to a person or entity proposed by the Contractor, the Contractor
shall propose another to whom the Owner or Architect has no reasonable objection.
If the proposed but rejected Subcontractor was reasonably capable of performing
the Work, the Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be increased or decreased by
the difference, if any, occasioned by such change, and an appropriate Change
Order shall be issued before commencement of the substitute Subcontractor’s
Work. However, no increase in the Contract Sum or Contract Time shall be
allowed for such change unless the Contractor has acted promptly and
responsively in submitting names as required.

 

§ 5.2.4 The Contractor shall not change a
Subcontractor, person or entity previously selected if the Owner or Architect
makes reasonable objection to such substitute.

 

§ 5.3
SUBCONTRACTUAL RELATIONS

 

§ 5.3.1 By appropriate agreement, written where
legally required for validity, the Contractor shall require each Subcontractor,
to the extent of the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor, to be bound to
the Contractor by terms of the Contract Documents, and to assume toward the
Contractor all the obligations and responsibilities, including the
responsibility for safety of the Subcontractor’s Work, which the Contractor, by
these Documents, assumes toward the Owner and Architect. Each subcontract
agreement shall preserve and protect the rights of the Owner and Architect
under the Contract Documents with respect to the Work to be performed by the
Subcontractor so that subcontracting thereof will not prejudice such rights,
and shall allow to the Subcontractor, unless specifically provided otherwise in
the subcontract agreement, the benefit of all rights, remedies and redress
against the Contractor that the Contractor, by the Contract Documents, has
against the Owner. Where appropriate, the Contractor shall require each
Subcontractor to enter into similar agreements with Sub-subcontractors. The
Contractor shall make available to each proposed Subcontractor, prior to the
execution of the subcontract agreement, copies of the Contract Documents to
which the Subcontractor will be bound, and, upon written request of the
Subcontractor, identify to the Subcontractor terms and conditions of the
proposed subcontract agreement which may be at variance with the Contract
Documents. Subcontractors will similarly make copies of applicable portions of
such documents available to their respective proposed Sub-subcontractors.

 

§ 5.4
CONTINGENT ASSIGNMENT OF SUBCONTRACTS

 

§ 5.4.1 Each subcontract agreement for a portion of
the Work is assigned by the Contractor to the Owner provided that:

separate contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that
portion of the Work, promptly report to the Architect apparent discrepancies or

§ 7.3
CONSTRUCTION CHANGE DIRECTIVES

 

§ 7.3.1 A Construction Change Directive is a written
order prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner and Architect,
directing a change in the Work prior to agreement on adjustment, if any, in the
Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. The Owner may by Construction Change
Directive, without invalidating the Contract, order changes in the Work within
the general scope of the Contract consisting of additions, deletions or other
revisions, the Contract Sum and Contract Time being adjusted accordingly.

 

§ 7.3.2 A Construction Change Directive shall be
used in the absence of total agreement on the terms of a Change Order.

 

§ 7.3.3 If the Construction Change Directive
provides for an adjustment to the Contract Sum, the adjustment shall be based
on one of the following methods:

.1                                      mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly
itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation;

.2                                      unit prices stated in the Contract Documents
or subsequently agreed upon;

.3                                      cost to be determined in a manner agreed upon
by the parties and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee; or

.4                                      as provided in Section 7.3.6.

 

§ 7.3.4 Upon receipt of a Construction Change
Directive, the Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in the Work
involved and advise the Architect of the Contractor’s agreement or disagreement
with the method, if any, provided in the Construction Change Directive for
determining the proposed adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time.

 

§ 7.3.5 A Construction Change Directive signed by
the Contractor indicates the agreement of the Contractor therewith, including
adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining
them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a
Change Order.

 

§ 7.3.6 If the Contractor does not respond promptly
or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum, the method and
the adjustment shall be determined by the Architect on the basis of reasonable
expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the
change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable
allowance for overhead and profit. In such case, and also under Section
7.3.3.3, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect
may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting
data. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, costs for the
purposes of this Section 7.3.6 shall be limited to the following:

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

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

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

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

.5                                      additional costs of supervision and field
office personnel directly attributable to the change.

 

§ 7.3.7 The amount of credit to be allowed by the
Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change which results in a net
decrease in the Contract Sum shall be actual net cost as confirmed by the Architect.
When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are
involved in a change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on
the basis of net increase, if any, with respect to that change.

 

§ 7.3.8 Pending final determination of the total
cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, amounts not in dispute
for such changes in the Work shall be included in Applications for Payment
accompanied by a Change Order indicating the parties’ agreement with part or
all of such costs. For any portion of such cost that remains in dispute, the
Architect will make an interim determination for purposes of monthly
certification for payment for those costs. That determination of cost shall
adjust the Contract Sum on the same basis as a Change Order, subject to the
right of either party to disagree and assert a claim in accordance with Article
4.

commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such
insurance. Unless the date of commencement is established by the Contract Documents

Architect, or of an employee of either, or of a separate contractor employed by
the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire,
unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the
Contractor’s control, or by delay authorized by the Owner pending mediation and
arbitration, or by other causes which the Architect determines may justify
delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order for such
reasonable time as the Architect may determine.

§ 9.2
SCHEDULE OF VALUES

 

§ 9.2.1 Before the first Application for Payment,
the Contractor shall submit to the Architect a schedule of values allocated to
various portions of the Work, prepared in such form and supported by such data
to substantiate its accuracy as the Architect may require. This schedule,
unless objected to by the Architect or the Owner, shall be used as a basis for
reviewing the Contractor’s Applications for Payment.

 

§ 9.3
APPLICATIONS FOR PAYMENT

 

§ 9.3.1 On or before the tenth (10th) day
of each month, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect an itemized
Application for Payment for operations completed in accordance with the
schedule of values. Such application shall be notarized, if required, and
supported by such data substantiating the Contractor’s right to payment as the
Owner or Architect may require, such as copies of requisitions from
Subcontractors and material suppliers, and reflecting retainage if provided for
in the Contract Documents.

 

§ 9.3.1.1 As provided in Section 7.3.8, such
applications may include requests for payment on account of changes in the Work
which have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives, or by
interim determinations of the Architect, but not yet included in Change Orders.

 

§ 9.3.1.2 Such applications may not include requests
for payment for portions of the Work for which the Contractor does not intend
to pay to a Subcontractor or material supplier, unless such Work has been
performed by others whom the Contractor intends to pay.

 

§ 9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract
Documents, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment
delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the
Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for
materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon
in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall
be conditioned upon compliance by the Contractor with procedures satisfactory
to the Owner to establish the Owner’s title to such materials and equipment or
otherwise protect the Owner’s interest, and the costs there of shall be
included in the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP).

 

§ 9.3.3 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work
covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later than the
time of payment. The Contractor further warrants that upon submittal of an
Application for Payment all Work for which Certificates for Payment have been
previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of
the Contractor’s knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens,
claims, security interests or encumbrances in favor of the Contractor,
Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities making a claim
by reason of having provided labor, materials and equipment relating to the
Work.

 

§ 9.4
CERTIFICATES FOR PAYMENT

 

§ 9.4.1 The Architect will, within seven days after
receipt of the Contractor’s Application for Payment, either issue to the Owner
a Certificate for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as
the Architect determines is properly due, or notify the Contractor and Owner in
writing of the Architect’s reasons for withholding certification in whole or in
part as provided in Section 9.5.1.

 

§ 9.4.2 The issuance of a Certificate for Payment
will constitute a representation by the Architect to the Owner, based on the
Architect’s evaluation of the Work and the data comprising the Application for
Payment, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the
best of the Architect’s knowledge, information and belief, the quality of the
Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The foregoing
representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with
the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent
tests and inspections, to correction of minor deviations from the Contract
Documents prior to completion and to specific qualifications expressed by the
Architect. The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will further constitute a
representation that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount
certified. However, the issuance of a Certificate for Payment will not be a
representation that the Architect has (1) made exhaustive or continuous onsite
inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed
copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and
other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor’s right to
payment, or (4) made examination to ascertain how or for what purpose the
Contractor has used money previously paid on account of the Contract Sum.

§ 9.5
DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD CERTIFICATION

 

§ 9.5.1 The Architect may withhold a Certificate for
Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the
Owner, if in the Architect’s opinion the representations to the Owner required
by Section 9.4.2 cannot be made. If the Architect is unable to certify payment
in the amount of the Application, the Architect will notify the Contractor and
Owner as provided in Section 9.4.1. If the Contractor and Architect cannot
agree on a revised amount, the Architect will promptly issue a Certificate for
Payment for the amount for which the Architect is able to make such
representations to the Owner. The Architect may also withhold a Certificate for
Payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, may nullify the whole
or a part of a Certificate for Payment previously issued, to such extent as may
be necessary in the Architect’s opinion to protect the Owner from loss for
which the Contractor is responsible, including loss resulting from acts and
omissions described in Section 3.3.2, because of:

.1                                      defective Work not remedied;

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

.3                                      failure of the Contractor to make payments
properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment;

.4                                      reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be
completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum;

.5                                      damage to the Owner or another contractor;

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

.7                                      persistent failure to carry out the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents.

 

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

 

§ 9.6
PROGRESS PAYMENTS

 

§ 9.6.1 After the Architect has issued a Certificate
for Payment, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the time
provided in the Contract Documents, and shall so notify the Architect.

 

§ 9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each
Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid
to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor’s portion of the Work, the
amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually
retained from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor’s
portion of the Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each
Subcontractor, require each Subcontractor to make payments to
Sub-subcontractors in a similar manner.

 

§ 9.6.3 The Architect will, on request, furnish to a
Subcontractor, if practicable, information regarding percentages of completion
or amounts applied for by the Contractor and action taken thereon by the
Architect and Owner on account of portions of the Work done by such
Subcontractor.

 

§ 9.6.4 Neither the Owner nor Architect shall have
an obligation to pay or to see to the payment of money to a Subcontractor
except as may otherwise be required by law.

 

§ 9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be
treated in a manner similar to that provided in Sections 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and
9.6.4.

 

§ 9.6.6 A Certificate for Payment, a progress
payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner
shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract
Documents.

 

§ 9.6.7 Unless the Contractor provides the Owner
with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Contract Sum, payments
received by the Contractor for Work properly performed by Subcontractors and
suppliers shall be held by the Contractor for those Subcontractors or suppliers
who performed Work or furnished materials, or both, under contract with the
Contractor for which payment was made by the Owner. Nothing contained herein
shall require money to be placed in a separate account and not commingled with
money of the Contractor, shall create any fiduciary liability or tort liability
on the part of the Contractor for breach of trust or shall entitle any person
or entity to an award of punitive damages against the Contractor for breach of
the requirements of this provision.

§ 9.7
FAILURE OF PAYMENT

 

§ 9.7.1 If the Architect does not issue a
Certificate for Payment, through no fault of the Contractor, within seven days
after receipt of the Contractor’s Application for Payment, or if the Owner does
not pay the Contractor within seven days after the date established in the
Contract Documents the amount certified by the Architect or awarded by
arbitration, then the Contractor may, upon seven additional days’ written
notice to the Owner and Architect, stop the Work until payment of the amount
owing has been received. The Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and
the Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the Contractor’s
reasonable costs of shut-down, delay and start-up, plus interest as provided
for in the Contract Documents.

 

§ 9.8
SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

 

§ 9.8.1 Substantial Completion as defined in Section
4.3 of AIA 111-1997-Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Contractor.

 

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

 

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

 

§ 9.8.4 When the Work or designated portion thereof
is substantially complete, the Architect will prepare a Certificate of
Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial
Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and Contractor for
security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and
shall fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the
list accompanying the Certificate. Warranties required by the Contract
Documents shall commence on the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or
designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in the Certificate of
Substantial Completion which has been approved by the Owner.

 

§ 9.8.5 The Certificate of Substantial Completion
shall be submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of
responsibilities assigned to them in such Certificate. Upon such acceptance and
consent of surety, if any, the Owner shall make payment of retainage applying
to such Work or designated portion thereof. Such payment shall be adjusted for
Work that is incomplete or not in accordance with the requirements of the
Contract Documents.

 

§ 9.9
PARTIAL OCCUPANCY OR USE

 

§ 9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or
partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion is
designated by separate agreement with the Contractor, provided such occupancy
or use is consented to by the insurer as required under Section 11.4.1.5 and
authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such
partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is
substantially complete, provided the Owner and Contractor have accepted in
writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage,
if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and
insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of
the Work and commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents.
When the Contractor considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor
shall prepare and submit a list to the Architect as provided under Section
9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial occupancy or use shall not be
unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be
determined by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no
agreement is reached, by decision of the Architect.

 

§ 9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy
or use, the Owner, Contractor and Architect shall jointly inspect the area to
be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order to determine and record
the condition of the Work.

§ 9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy
or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of
Work not complying with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

 

§ 9.10
FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT

 

§ 9.10.1 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work
is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final
Application for Payment, the Architect will promptly make such inspection and,
when the Architect finds the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and
the Contract fully performed, after inspection and approval by the Owner, the
Architect will promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment stating that to
the best of the Architect’s knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis
of the Architect’s on-site visits and inspections, the Work has been completed
in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and that the
entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in the final
Certificate is due and payable. The Architect’s final Certificate for Payment
will constitute a further representation that conditions listed in Section
9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor’s being entitled to final payment have
been fulfilled.

 

§ 9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining
retained percentage shall become due until the Contractor submits to the
Architect (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment,
and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the Owner’s
property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner)
have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that
insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final
payment is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire
until at least 30 days’ prior written notice has been given to the Owner, (3) a
written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the
insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract
Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5), if required
by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations,
such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or
encumbrances arising out of the Contract, to the extent and in such form as may
be designated by the Owner. If a Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or
waiver required by the Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to
the Owner to indemnify the Owner against such lien. If such lien remains
unsatisfied after payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the Owner
all money that the Owner may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien,
including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

 

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

 

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

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

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

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

 

§ 9.10.5 Acceptance of final payment by the
Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of
claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by
that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment.

with applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations and lawful orders of
public authorities bearing on safety of persons or property or their protection
from damage, injury or loss.

 

§ 10.2.3 The Contractor shall erect and maintain, as
required by existing conditions and performance of the Contract, reasonable

Sub-subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or
by anyone for whose acts they may be liable and for which the Contractor is

attributable to acts or omissions of the Owner or Architect or anyone directly
or indirectly employed by either of them, or by anyone for whose acts either of
them may be liable, and not attributable to the fault or negligence of the
Contractor, Subcontractor, Sub-Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly
employed by any of them. The foregoing obligations of the Contractor are in
addition to the Contractor’s obligations under Section 3.18.

 

§ 10.2.6 The Contractor shall designate a responsible
member of the Contractor’s organization at the site whose duty shall be the
prevention of accidents. This person shall be the Contractor’s superintendent
unless otherwise designated by the Contractor in writing to the Owner and

§ 10.3.1 If reasonable precautions will be inadequate
to prevent foreseeable bodily injury or death to persons resulting from a
material or substance, including but not limited to asbestos or polychlorinated

shall, upon recognizing the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected
area and report the condition to the Owner and Architect in writing.

 

§ 10.3.2 The Owner shall obtain the services of a
licensed laboratory to verify the presence or absence of the material or
substance reported by the Contractor and, in the event such material or
substance is found to be present, to verify that it has been rendered harmless.
Unless otherwise required by the Contract Documents, the Owner shall furnish in
writing to the Contractor and Architect the names and qualifications of persons
or entities who are to perform tests verifying the presence or absence of such
material or substance or who are to perform the task of removal or safe
containment of such material or substance. The Contractor and the Architect
will promptly reply to the Owner in writing stating whether or not either has
reasonable objection to the persons or entities proposed by the Owner. If
either the Contractor or Architect has an objection to a person or entity
proposed by the Owner, the Owner shall propose another to whom the Contractor
and the Architect have no reasonable objection. When the material or substance
has been rendered harmless, Work in the affected area shall resume upon written
agreement of the Owner and Contractor. The Contract Time shall be extended
appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased in the amount of the
Contractor’s reasonable additional costs of shut-down, delay and start-up,
which adjustments shall be accomplished as provided in Article 7.

direction request or to requirements specifically expressed in the Contract
Documents, it must, if required in writing by the Architect, be uncovered for
the Architect’s examination and be replaced at the Contractor’s expense without

AFTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

 

§ 12.2.2.1 In addition to the Contractor’s obligations
under Section 3.5, if, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion
of the Work or designated portion thereof or after the date for commencement of
warranties established under Section 9.9.1, or by terms of an applicable
special warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found
to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the
Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from the
Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Contractor a written
acceptance of such condition. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after
discovery of the condition. During the one-year period for correction of Work,
if the Owner fails to notify the Contractor and give the Contractor an
opportunity to make the correction, the Owner waives the rights to require
correction by the Contractor and to make a claim for breach of warranty. If the
Contractor fails to commence correction of nonconforming Work within ten days
after receipt of notice from the Owner or Architect (unless the commencement of
such correction is directly affected by adverse weather conditions in which
case the commencement of such correction shall begin within five days after
such adverse weather conditions no longer prevent the commencement of such
correction) and fails to prosecute diligently such corrective work to
completion, the Owner may correct it in accordance with §2.4.

§ 12.2.2.2 The one-year period for correction of Work
shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after
Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and
the actual performance of the Work.

 

§ 12.2.2.3 The one-year period for correction of Work
shall not be extended by corrective Work performed by the Contractor pursuant
to this Section 12.2 except that a one year warranty shall be established for
individual items of Work repaired under warranty from the date repair is
completed for the individual repair.

 

§ 12.2.3 The Contractor shall remove from the site
portions of the Work which are not in accordance with the requirements of the
Contract Documents and are neither corrected by the Contractor nor accepted by
the Owner.

 

§ 12.2.4 The Contractor shall bear the cost of
correcting destroyed or damaged construction, whether completed or partially
completed, of the Owner or separate contractors caused by the Contractor’s
correction or removal of Work which is not in accordance with the requirements
of the Contract Documents.

 

§ 12.2.5 Nothing contained in this Section 12.2 shall
be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other
obligations which the Contractor might have under the Contract Documents.
Establishment of the one-year period for correction of Work as described in
Section 12.2.2 relates only to the specific obligation of the Contractor to
correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the
obligation to comply with the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced,
nor to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish the
Contractor’s liability with respect to the Contractor’s obligations other than
specifically to correct the Work.

 

§ 12.3
ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK

 

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

ARTICLE
14  TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE
CONTRACT

 

§ 14.1
TERMINATION BY THE CONTRACTOR

 

§ 14.1.1 The Contractor may terminate the Contract if
the Work is stopped for a period of 30 consecutive days through no act or fault
of the Contractor or a Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor or their agents or
employees or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work
under direct or indirect contract with the Contractor, for any of the following
reasons:

.1                                      issuance of an order of a court or other
public authority having jurisdiction which requires all Work to be stopped;

.2                                      an act of government, such as a declaration
of national emergency which requires all Work to be stopped;

.3                                      because the Architect has not issued a
Certificate for Payment and has not notified the Contractor of the reason for
withholding certification as provided in Section 9.4.1, or because the Owner
has not made payment on a Certificate for Payment within the time stated in the
Contract Documents; or

.4                                      the Owner has failed to furnish to the
Contractor promptly, upon the Contractor’s request, reasonable evidence as
required by Section 2.2.1.

 

§ 14.1.2 The Contractor may terminate the Contract
if, through no act or fault of the Contractor or a Subcontractor,
Sub-subcontractor or their agents or employees or any other persons or entities
performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the
Contractor, repeated suspensions, delays or interruptions of the entire Work by
the Owner as described in Section 14.3 constitute in the aggregate more than
100 percent of the total number of days scheduled for completion, or 120 days
in any 365-day period, whichever is less.

 

§ 14.1.3 If one of the reasons described in Section
14.1.1 or 14.1.2 exists, the Contractor may, upon seven days’ written notice to
the Owner and Architect, terminate the Contract and recover from the Owner
payment for Work executed and for proven loss with respect to materials,
equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery, including
reasonable overhead, profit and damages.

 

§ 14.1.4 If the Work is stopped for a period of 60
consecutive days through no act or fault of the Contractor or a Subcontractor
or their agents or employees or any other persons performing portions of the
Work under contract with the Contractor because the Owner has persistently
failed to fulfill the Owner’s obligations under the Contract Documents with
respect to matters important to the progress of the Work, the Contractor may,
upon seven additional days’ written notice to the Owner and the Architect,
terminate the Contract and recover from the Owner as provided in Section
14.1.3.

 

§ 14.2
TERMINATION BY THE OWNER FOR CAUSE

 

§ 14.2.1 The Owner may terminate the Contract if the
Contractor:

.1                                      persistently or repeatedly refuses or fails
to supply enough properly skilled workers or proper materials;

.2                                      fails to make payment to Subcontractors for
materials or labor in accordance with the respective agreements between the
Contractor and the Subcontractors and this Agreement;

.3                                      persistently disregards laws, ordinances, or
rules, regulations or orders of a public authority having jurisdiction; or

.4                                      otherwise breaches a material provision of
the Contract Documents.

 

§ 14.2.2 When any of the above reasons exist, the
Owner, upon certification by the Architect that sufficient cause exists to
justify such action, may without prejudice to any other rights or remedies of
the Owner and after giving the Contractor and the Contractor’s surety, if any,
seven days’ written notice, terminate employment of the Contractor and may,
subject to any prior rights of the surety:

equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery thereon owned by the
Contractor;

.2                                      accept assignment of subcontracts pursuant to
Section 5.4; and

.3                                      finish the Work by whatever reasonable method
the Owner may deem expedient. Upon request of the Contractor, the Owner shall
furnish to the Contractor a detailed accounting of the costs incurred by the

one of the reasons stated in Section 14.2.1, the Contractor shall not be
entitled to receive further payment until the Work is finished.

 

§ 14.2.4 If the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum
exceeds costs of finishing the Work, including compensation for the Architect’s
services and expenses made necessary thereby, and other damages incurred by the
Owner and not expressly waived, such excess shall be paid to the Contractor. If
such costs and damages exceed the unpaid balance, the Contractor shall pay the
difference to the Owner. The amount to be paid to the Contractor or Owner, as
the case may be, shall be certified by the Architect, upon application, and
this obligation for payment shall survive termination of the Contract.

 

§ 14.3
SUSPENSION BY THE OWNER FOR CONVENIENCE

 

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

 

§ 14.3.2 The Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be
adjusted for increases in the cost and time caused by suspension, delay or
interruption as described in Section 14.3.1. Adjustment of the Contract Sum
shall include profit. No adjustment shall be made to the extent:

.1                                      that performance is, was or would have been
so suspended, delayed or interrupted by another cause for which the Contractor
is responsible; or

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

 

§ 14.4
TERMINATION BY THE OWNER FOR CONVENIENCE

 

§ 14.4.1 The Owner may, at any time, terminate the
Contract for the Owner’s convenience and without cause.

 

§ 14.4.2 Upon receipt of written notice from the
Owner of such termination for the Owner’s convenience, the Contractor shall:

.1                                      cease operations as directed by the Owner in
the notice;

.2                                      take actions necessary, or that the Owner may
direct, for the protection and preservation of the Work; and

.3                                      except for Work directed to be performed
prior to the effective date of termination stated in the notice, terminate all
existing subcontracts and purchase orders and enter into no further
subcontracts and purchase orders.

§ 2.4.1 If the Contractor defaults or neglects to
carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents and fails within a
seven-day period after receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and
continue correction of such default or neglect with diligence and promptness,
the Owner may after such seven-day period give the Contractor a second written
notice to correct such deficiencies within a three-day period. If the
Contractor within such three-day period after receipt of such second notice
fails to commence and continue to correct any deficiencies, the Owner may,
without prejudice to other remedies the Owner may have, correct such
deficiencies. In such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued
deducting from payments then or thereafter due the Contractor the reasonable
cost of correcting such deficiencies, including Owner’s expenses and
compensation for the Architect’s additional services made necessary by such
default, neglect or failure. Such action by the Owner and amounts charged to
the Contractor are both subject to prior approval of the Architect. If payments

portions of the Work under the Contract, unless the Contract Documents give
other specific instructions concerning these matters. If the Contract Documents
give specific instructions concerning construction means, methods, techniques,
sequences or procedures, the Contractor shall evaluate the jobsite safety
thereof and, except as stated below, shall be fully and solely responsible for the
jobsite safety of such means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. If
the Contractor determines that such means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures may not be safe, the Contractor shall give timely written notice to
the Owner and Architect and shall not proceed with that portion of the Work
without further written instructions from the Architect. If the Contractor is
then instructed to proceed with the required means, methods, techniques,

§ 12.2.2.1 In addition to the Contractor’s obligations
under Section 3.5, if, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion
of the Work or designated portion thereof or after the date for commencement of
warranties established under Section 9.9.1, or by terms of an applicable
special warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found
to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the
Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from the
Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Contractor a written
acceptance of such condition. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after
discovery of the condition. During the one-year period for correction of Work,
if the Owner fails to notify the Contractor and give the Contractor an
opportunity to make the correction, the Owner waives the rights to require
correction by the Contractor and to make a claim for breach of warranty. If the
Contractor fails to commence correction of nonconforming Work within ten days
after receipt of notice from the Owner or Architect (unless the commencement of
such correction is directly affected by adverse weather conditions in which
case the commencement of such correction shall begin within five days after
such adverse weather conditions no longer prevent the commencement of such
correction) and fails to prosecute diligently such corrective work to
completion, the Owner may correct it in accordance with §2.4.
