Heading: The Plymouth Contract

Text: The Plymouth contract obligated Agra to pay Central States a fixed sum of around $13,000,000. Like the Superior contract, Agra was required to make monthly progress payments to Central States, but at Plymouth the progress payments were based upon the percentage of the total work completed each month. Central States was required to “substantiate [the] accuracy” of each pay application with such data as Agra required. App. 3983. Agra then had ten days from receiving Central States’s pay application to partially or fully reject the application and was required to pay Central States within forty-five days of approving Central States’s pay application, even if Agra had not been paid by the owner of the plant. The Plymouth contract gave Agra the right to suspend the -5- work for any reason, although Central States could “stop the Work” if Agra did not pay Central States through no fault of Central States. App. 3978.
