ARTICLE 1 GENERAL PROVISIONS § 1.1 Basic Definitions § 1.1.1 The Contract Documents The Contract Documents are enumerated in the Agreement between the Owner and Contractor (hereinafter the
Agreement) and consist of the Agreement, Conditions of the Contract (General, Supplementary and other Conditions),
Drawings, Specifications, Addenda issued prior to execution of the Contract, other documents listed in the Agreement,
and Modifications issued after execution of the Contract. A Modification is (1) a written amendment to the Contract
signed by both parties, (2) a Change Order, (3) a Construction Change Directive, or (4) a written order for a minor
change in the Work issued by the Architect. Unless specifically enumerated in the Agreement, the Contract
Documents do not include the advertisement or invitation to bid, Instructions to Bidders, sample forms, other
information furnished by the Owner in anticipation of receiving bids or proposals, the Contractor’s bid or proposal, or
portions of Addenda relating to bidding or proposal requirements.
§ 1.1.2 The Contract The Contract Documents form the Contract for Construction. The Contract represents the entire and integrated
agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes prior negotiations, representations, or agreements, either written
or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified only by a Modification. The Contract Documents shall not be
construed to create a contractual relationship of any kind (1) between the Contractor and the Architect or the
Architect’s consultants, (2) between the Owner and a Subcontractor or a Sub-subcontractor, (3) between the Owner
and the Architect or the Architect’s consultants, or (4) between any persons or entities other than the Owner and the
Contractor. The Architect shall, however, be entitled to performance and enforcement of obligations under the
Contract intended to facilitate performance of the Architect’s duties.
§ 1.1.3 The Work The term “Work” means the construction and services required by the Contract Documents, whether completed or
partially completed, and includes all other labor, materials, equipment, and services provided or to be provided by the
Contractor to fulfill the Contractor’s obligations. The Work may constitute the whole or a part of the Project.
§ 1.1.4 The Project The Project is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be the whole or
a part and which may include construction by the Owner and by Separate Contractors.
§ 1.1.5 The Drawings The Drawings are the graphic and pictorial portions of the Contract Documents showing the design, location and
dimensions of the Work, generally including plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules, and diagrams.
§ 1.1.6 The Specifications The Specifications are that portion of the Contract Documents consisting of the written requirements for materials,
equipment, systems, standards and workmanship for the Work, and performance of related services.
§ 1.1.7 Instruments of Service Instruments of Service are representations, in any medium of expression now known or later developed, of the tangible
and intangible creative work performed by the Architect and the Architect’s consultants under their respective
professional services agreements. Instruments of Service may include, without limitation, studies, surveys, models,
sketches, drawings, specifications, and other similar materials.
§ 1.1.8 Initial Decision Maker The Initial Decision Maker is the person identified in the Agreement to render initial decisions on Claims in
accordance with Section 15.2. The Initial Decision Maker shall not show partiality to the Owner or Contractor and
shall not be liable for results of interpretations or decisions rendered in good faith.
§ 1.2 Correlation and Intent of the Contract Documents § 1.2.1 The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion
of the Work by the Contractor. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as
binding as if required by all; performance by the Contractor shall be required only to the extent consistent with the
Contract Documents and reasonably inferable from them as being necessary to produce the indicated results.

§ 1.2.1.1 The invalidity of any provision of the Contract Documents shall not invalidate the Contract or its remaining
provisions. If it is determined that any provision of the Contract Documents violates any law, or is otherwise invalid or
unenforceable, then that provision shall be revised to the extent necessary to make that provision legal and
enforceable. In such case the Contract Documents shall be construed, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to give
effect to the parties’ intentions and purposes in executing the Contract.
§ 1.2.2 Organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections and articles, and arrangement of Drawings shall not
control the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be
performed by any trade.
§ 1.2.3 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, words that have well-known technical or construction
industry meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings.
§ 1.3 Capitalization Terms capitalized in these General Conditions include those that are (1) specifically defined, (2) the titles of numbered
articles, or (3) the titles of other documents published by the American Institute of Architects.
§ 1.4 Interpretation In the interest of brevity the Contract Documents frequently omit modifying words such as “all” and “any” and articles
such as “the” and “an,” but the fact that a modifier or an article is absent from one statement and appears in another is
not intended to affect the interpretation of either statement.
§ 1.5 Ownership and Use of Drawings, Specifications, and Other Instruments of Service § 1.5.1 The Architect and the Architect’s consultants shall be deemed the authors and owners of their respective
Instruments of Service, including the Drawings and Specifications, and retain all common law, statutory, and other
reserved rights in their Instruments of Service, including copyrights. The Contractor, Subcontractors,
Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers shall not own or claim a copyright in the Instruments of Service. Submittal or
distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for other purposes in connection with the Project is not to be
construed as publication in derogation of the Architect’s or Architect’s consultants’ reserved rights.
§ 1.5.2 The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers are authorized to use and reproduce the
Instruments of Service provided to them, subject to any protocols established pursuant to Sections 1.7 and 1.8, solely
and exclusively for execution of the Work. All copies made under this authorization shall bear the copyright notice, if
any, shown on the Instruments of Service. The Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and suppliers may not
use the Instruments of Service on other projects or for additions to the Project outside the scope of the Work without
the specific written consent of the Owner, Architect, and the Architect’s consultants.
§ 1.6 Notice § 1.6.1 Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.6.2, where the Contract Documents require one party to notify or
give notice to the other party, such notice shall be provided in writing to the designated representative of the party to
whom the notice is addressed and shall be deemed to have been duly served if delivered in person, by mail, by courier,
or by electronic transmission if a method for electronic transmission is set forth in the Agreement.
§ 1.6.2 Notice of Claims as provided in Section 15.1.3 shall be provided in writing and shall be deemed to have been
duly served only if delivered to the designated representative of the party to whom the notice is addressed by certified
or registered mail, or by courier providing proof of delivery.
§ 1.7 Digital Data Use and Transmission The parties shall agree upon protocols governing the transmission and use of Instruments of Service or any other
information or documentation in digital form. The parties will use AIA Document E203™–2013, Building
Information Modeling and Digital Data Exhibit, to establish the protocols for the development, use, transmission, and
exchange of digital data.
§ 1.8 Building Information Models Use and Reliance Any use of, or reliance on, all or a portion of a building information model without agreement to protocols governing
the use of, and reliance on, the information contained in the model and without having those protocols set forth in AIA
Document E203™–2013, Building Information Modeling and Digital Data Exhibit, and the requisite AIA Document
G202™–2013, Project Building Information Modeling Protocol Form, shall be at the using or relying party’s sole risk

and without liability to the other party and its contractors or consultants, the authors of, or contributors to, the building
information model, and each of their agents and employees.
ARTICLE 2 OWNER § 2.1 General § 2.1.1 The Owner is the person or entity identified as such in the Agreement and is referred to throughout the Contract
Documents as if singular in number. The Owner shall designate in writing a representative who shall have express
authority to bind the Owner with respect to all matters requiring the Owner’s approval or authorization. Except as
otherwise provided in Section 4.2.1, the Architect does not have such authority. The term “Owner” means the Owner
or the Owner’s authorized representative.
§ 2.1.2 The Owner shall furnish to the Contractor, within fifteen days after receipt of a written request, information
necessary and relevant for the Contractor to evaluate, give notice of, or enforce mechanic’s lien rights. Such
information shall include a correct statement of the record legal title to the property on which the Project is located,
usually referred to as the site, and the Owner’s interest therein.
§ 2.2 Evidence of the Owner’s Financial Arrangements § 2.2.1 Prior to commencement of the Work and upon written request by the Contractor, the Owner shall furnish to the
Contractor reasonable evidence that the Owner has made financial arrangements to fulfill the Owner’s obligations
under the Contract. The Contractor shall have no obligation to commence the Work until the Owner provides such
evidence. If commencement of the Work is delayed under this Section 2.2.1, the Contract Time shall be extended
appropriately.
§ 2.2.2 Following commencement of the Work and upon written request by the Contractor, the Owner shall furnish to
the Contractor reasonable evidence that the Owner has made financial arrangements to fulfill the Owner’s obligations
under the Contract only if (1) the Owner fails to make payments to the Contractor as the Contract Documents require;
(2) the Contractor identifies in writing a reasonable concern regarding the Owner’s ability to make payment when due;
or (3) a change in the Work materially changes the Contract Sum. If the Owner fails to provide such evidence, as
required, within fourteen days of the Contractor’s request, the Contractor may immediately stop the Work and, in that
event, shall notify the Owner that the Work has stopped. However, if the request is made because a change in the Work
materially changes the Contract Sum under (3) above, the Contractor may immediately stop only that portion of the
Work affected by the change until reasonable evidence is provided. If the Work is stopped under this Section 2.2.2, the
Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the
Contractor’s reasonable costs of shutdown, delay and start-up, plus interest as provided in the Contract Documents.

disclose “confidential” information, after seven (7) days’ notice to the Owner, where disclosure is required by law,
including a subpoena or other form of compulsory legal process issued by a court or governmental entity, or by court
or arbitrator(s) order. The Contractor may also disclose “confidential” information to its employees, consultants,
sureties, Subcontractors and their employees, Sub-subcontractors, and others who need to know the content of such
information solely and exclusively for the Project and who agree to maintain the confidentiality of such information.
§ 2.3 Information and Services Required of the Owner § 2.3.1 Except for permits and fees that are the responsibility of the Contractor under the Contract Documents,

§ 2.3.4 The Owner shall furnish surveys describing physical characteristics, legal limitations and utility locations for
the site of the Project, and a legal description of the site. The Contractor shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy of
information furnished by the Owner but shall exercise proper precautions relating to the safe performance of the
Work.
§ 2.3.5 The Owner shall furnish information or services required of the Owner by the Contract Documents with
reasonable promptness. The Owner shall also furnish any other information or services under the Owner’s control and
relevant to the Contractor’s performance of the Work with reasonable promptness after receiving the Contractor’s
written request for such information or services.
§ 2.3.6 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Owner shall furnish to the Contractor one copy of
the Contract Documents for purposes of making reproductions pursuant to Section 1.5.2.
§ 2.4 Owner’s Right to Stop the Work If the Contractor fails to correct Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents as
required by Section 12.2 or repeatedly fails to carry out Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Owner
may issue a written order to the Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has
been eliminated; however, the right of the Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to a duty on the part of the Owner
to exercise this right for the benefit of the Contractor or any other person or entity, except to the extent required by
Section 6.1.3.
§ 2.5 Owner’s Right to Carry Out the Work If the Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents and fails
within a ten-day period after receipt of notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of such default or
neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies the Owner may have,
correct such default or neglect. Such action by the Owner and amounts charged to the Contractor are both subject to
prior approval of the Architect and the Architect may, pursuant to Section 9.5.1, withhold or nullify a Certificate for
Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to reimburse the Owner for 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. If current and future payments are not sufficient to cover such
amounts, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner. If the Contractor disagrees with the actions of the
Owner or the Architect, or the amounts claimed as costs to the Owner, the Contractor may file a Claim pursuant to
Article 15.
ARTICLE 3 CONTRACTOR § 3.1 General § 3.1.1 The Contractor is the person or entity identified as such in the Agreement and is referred to throughout the
Contract Documents as if singular in number. The Contractor shall be lawfully licensed, if required in the jurisdiction
where the Project is located. The Contractor shall designate in writing a representative who shall have express
authority to bind the Contractor with respect to all matters under this Contract. The term “Contractor” means the
Contractor or the Contractor’s authorized representative.
§ 3.1.2 The Contractor shall perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
§ 3.1.3 The Contractor shall not be relieved of its obligations to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents either by activities or duties of the Architect in the Architect’s administration of the Contract, or by tests,
inspections or approvals required or performed by persons or entities other than the Contractor.
§ 3.2 Review of Contract Documents and Field Conditions by Contractor § 3.2.1 Execution of the Contract by the Contractor is a representation that the Contractor has visited the site, become
generally familiar with local conditions under which the Work is to be performed, and correlated personal
observations with requirements of the Contract Documents.
§ 3.2.2 Because the Contract Documents are complementary, the Contractor shall, before starting each portion of the
Work, carefully study and compare the various Contract Documents relative to that portion of the Work, as well as the
information furnished by the Owner pursuant to Section 2.3.4, 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 coordination and construction by the Contractor and are not for the
purpose of discovering errors, omissions, or inconsistencies in the Contract Documents; however, the Contractor shall
promptly report to the Architect any errors, inconsistencies or omissions discovered by or made known to the
Contractor as a request for information in such form as the Architect may require. 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.
§ 3.2.3 The Contractor is not required to ascertain that the Contract Documents are in accordance with applicable laws,
statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities, but the Contractor shall
promptly report to the Architect any nonconformity discovered by or made known to the Contractor as a request for
information in such form as the Architect may require.
§ 3.2.4 If the Contractor believes that additional cost or time is involved because of clarifications or instructions the
Architect issues in response to the Contractor’s notices or requests for information pursuant to Sections 3.2.2 or 3.2.3,
the Contractor shall submit Claims as provided in Article 15. If the Contractor fails to perform the obligations of
Sections 3.2.2 or 3.2.3, the Contractor shall pay such costs and damages to the Owner, subject to Section 15.1.7, as
would have been avoided if the Contractor had performed such obligations. If the Contractor performs those
obligations, the Contractor shall not be liable to the Owner or Architect for damages resulting from errors,
inconsistencies or omissions in the Contract Documents, for differences between field measurements or conditions
and the Contract Documents, or for nonconformities of the Contract Documents to applicable laws, statutes,
ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities.
§ 3.3 Supervision and Construction Procedures § 3.3.1 The Contractor shall supervise and direct 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. If the Contract Documents give
specific instructions concerning construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures, the Contractor
shall evaluate the jobsite safety thereof and shall be 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 notice to the Owner and Architect, and shall propose
alternative means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures. The Architect shall evaluate the proposed
alternative solely for conformance with the design intent for the completed construction. Unless the Architect objects
to the Contractor’s proposed alternative, the Contractor shall perform the Work using its alternative means, methods,
techniques, sequences, or procedures.
§ 3.3.2 The Contractor shall be responsible to the Owner for acts and omissions of the Contractor’s employees,
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.
§ 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

and whether or not incorporated or to be incorporated in the Work.
§ 3.4.2 Except in the case of minor changes in the Work approved by the Architect in accordance with Section 3.12.8
or ordered by the Architect in accordance with Section 7.4, the Contractor may make substitutions only with the
consent of the Owner, after evaluation by the Architect and in accordance with a Change Order or Construction
Change Directive.
§ 3.4.3 The Contractor shall enforce strict discipline and good order among the Contractor’s employees and other
persons carrying out the Work. The Contractor shall not permit employment of unfit persons or persons not properly
skilled in tasks assigned to them.

§ 3.5 Warranty § 3.5.1 The Contractor warrants to the Owner and Architect that materials and equipment furnished under the Contract
will be of good quality and new unless the Contract Documents require or permit otherwise. The Contractor further
warrants that the Work will conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents and will be free from defects,
except for those inherent in the quality of the Work the Contract Documents require or permit. Work, materials, or
equipment not conforming to these requirements may be considered defective. The Contractor’s warranty excludes
remedy for damage or defect caused by abuse, alterations to the Work not executed by the Contractor, improper or
insufficient maintenance, improper operation, or normal wear and tear and normal usage. If required by the Architect,
the Contractor shall furnish satisfactory evidence as to the kind and quality of materials and equipment.
§ 3.5.2 All material, equipment, or other special warranties required by the Contract Documents shall be issued in the
name of the Owner, or shall be transferable to the Owner, and shall commence in accordance with Section 9.8.4.
§ 3.6 Taxes The Contractor shall pay sales, consumer, use and similar taxes for the Work provided by the Contractor that are
legally enacted when bids are received or negotiations concluded, whether or not yet effective or merely scheduled to
go into effect.
§ 3.7 Permits, Fees, Notices and Compliance with Laws § 3.7.1 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall secure and pay for the building
permit as well as for other permits, fees, licenses, and inspections by government agencies necessary for proper
execution and completion of the Work that are customarily secured after execution of the Contract and legally required
at the time bids are received or negotiations concluded.
§ 3.7.2 The Contractor shall comply with and give notices required by applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes,
rules and regulations, and lawful orders of public authorities applicable to performance of the Work.
§ 3.7.3 If the Contractor performs Work knowing it to be contrary to applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules
and regulations, or lawful orders of public authorities, the Contractor shall assume appropriate responsibility for such
Work and shall bear the costs attributable to correction.
§ 3.7.4 Concealed or Unknown Conditions If the Contractor encounters conditions at the site that are (1) subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions
that differ materially from those indicated in the Contract Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an
unusual nature that 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, the Contractor shall promptly provide
notice to the Owner and the Architect before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than 14 days after first
observance of the conditions. The Architect will promptly investigate such conditions and, if the Architect determines
that 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 that an equitable adjustment be made 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
promptly notify the Owner and Contractor, stating the reasons. If either party disputes the Architect’s determination or
recommendation, that party may submit a Claim as provided in Article 15.
§ 3.7.5 If, in the course of the Work, the Contractor encounters human remains or recognizes the existence of burial
markers, archaeological sites or wetlands not indicated in the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall immediately
suspend any operations that would affect them and shall notify the Owner and Architect. Upon receipt of such notice,
the Owner shall promptly take any action necessary to obtain governmental authorization required to resume the
operations. The Contractor shall continue to suspend such operations until otherwise instructed by the Owner but shall
continue with all other operations that do not affect those remains or features. Requests for adjustments in the Contract
Sum and Contract Time arising from the existence of such remains or features may be made as provided in Article 15.
§ 3.8 Allowances § 3.8.1 The Contractor shall include in the Contract Sum all allowances stated in the Contract Documents. Items
covered by allowances shall be supplied for such amounts and by such persons or entities as the Owner may direct, but
the Contractor shall not be required to employ persons or entities to whom the Contractor has reasonable objection.

§ 3.8.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents,
.1 allowances shall cover the cost to the Contractor of materials and equipment delivered at the site and all
required taxes, less applicable trade discounts;
.2 Contractor’s costs for unloading and handling at the site, labor, installation costs, overhead, profit, and
other expenses contemplated for stated allowance amounts shall be included in the Contract Sum but
not in the allowances; and
.3 whenever costs are more than or less than allowances, the Contract Sum shall be adjusted accordingly
by Change Order. The amount of the Change Order shall reflect (1) the difference between actual costs
and the allowances under Section 3.8.2.1 and (2) changes in Contractor’s costs under Section 3.8.2.2.
§ 3.8.3 Materials and equipment under an allowance shall be selected by the Owner with reasonable promptness.
§ 3.9 Superintendent § 3.9.1 The Contractor shall employ a competent superintendent and necessary assistants who shall be in attendance at

communications given to the superintendent shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor.
§ 3.9.2 The Contractor, as soon as practicable after award of the Contract, shall notify the Owner and Architect of the
name and qualifications of a proposed superintendent. Within 14 days of receipt of the information, the Architect may
notify the Contractor, stating whether the Owner or the Architect (1) has reasonable objection to the proposed
superintendent or (2) requires additional time for review. Failure of the Architect to provide notice within the 14-day
period shall constitute notice of no reasonable objection.
§ 3.9.3 The Contractor shall not employ a proposed superintendent to whom the Owner or Architect has made
reasonable and timely objection. The Contractor shall not change the superintendent without the Owner’s consent,
which shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed.
§ 3.10 Contractor’s Construction and Submittal Schedules § 3.10.1 The Contractor, promptly after being awarded the Contract, shall submit for the Owner’s and Architect’s
information a Contractor’s construction schedule for the Work. The schedule shall contain detail appropriate for the
Project, including (1) the date of commencement of the Work, interim schedule milestone dates, and the date of
Substantial Completion; (2) an apportionment of the Work by construction activity; and (3) the time required for
completion of each portion of the Work. The schedule shall provide for the orderly progression of the Work to
completion and shall not exceed time limits current under the Contract Documents. The schedule shall be revised at
appropriate intervals as required by the conditions of the Work and Project.
§ 3.10.2 The Contractor, promptly after being awarded the Contract and thereafter as necessary to maintain a current
submittal schedule, shall submit a submittal schedule for the Architect’s approval. The Architect’s approval shall not
be unreasonably delayed or withheld. The submittal schedule shall (1) be coordinated with the Contractor’s
construction schedule, and (2) allow the Architect reasonable time to review submittals. If the Contractor fails to
submit a submittal schedule, or fails to provide submittals in accordance with the approved submittal schedule, the
Contractor shall not be entitled to any increase in Contract Sum or extension of Contract Time based on the time
required for review of submittals.
§ 3.10.3 The Contractor shall perform the Work in general accordance with the most recent schedules submitted to the
Owner and Architect.
§ 3.11 Documents and Samples at the Site The Contractor shall make available, at the Project site, the Contract Documents, including Change Orders,
Construction Change Directives, and other Modifications, in good order and marked currently to indicate field
changes and selections made during construction, and the approved Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, and
similar required submittals. These shall be in electronic form or paper copy, available to the Architect and Owner, and

other information furnished by the Contractor to illustrate materials or equipment for some portion of the Work.
§ 3.12.3 Samples are physical examples that illustrate materials, equipment, or workmanship, and establish standards
by which the Work will be judged.
§ 3.12.4 Shop Drawings, Product Data, Samples, and similar submittals are not Contract Documents. Their purpose is
to demonstrate how the Contractor proposes to conform to the information given and the design concept expressed in
the Contract Documents for those portions of the Work for which the Contract Documents require submittals. 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 that 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, in
accordance with the submittal schedule approved by the Architect or, in the absence of an approved submittal

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 the requirements of the Contract Documents by the Architect’s approval of Shop
Drawings, Product Data, Samples, or similar submittals, unless the Contractor has specifically notified the Architect
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 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 that 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.
§ 3.12.10.1 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 be entitled to rely upon
the adequacy and accuracy of the performance and design criteria provided in the Contract Documents. The
Contractor shall cause such services or certifications to be provided by an appropriately 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 and accuracy of the services,
certifications, and approvals performed or provided by such design professionals, provided the Owner and Architect
have specified to the Contractor the performance and design criteria that such services must satisfy. Pursuant to this

limited purpose of checking for conformance with information given and the design concept expressed in the Contract
Documents.

its parts fit together properly. All areas requiring cutting, fitting, or patching shall be restored to the condition existing
prior to the cutting, fitting, or patching, unless otherwise required by the Contract Documents.
§ 3.14.2 The Contractor shall not damage or endanger a portion of the Work or fully or partially completed
construction of the Owner or Separate Contractors by cutting, patching, or otherwise altering such construction, or by
excavation. The Contractor shall not cut or otherwise alter construction by the Owner or a Separate Contractor except
with written consent of the Owner and of the Separate Contractor. Consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The
Contractor shall not unreasonably withhold, from the Owner or a Separate Contractor, its consent to cutting or
otherwise altering the Work.
§ 3.15 Cleaning Up § 3.15.1 The Contractor shall keep the premises and surrounding area free from accumulation of waste materials and
rubbish caused by operations under the Contract. At completion of the Work, the Contractor shall remove waste
materials, rubbish, the Contractor’s tools, construction equipment, machinery, and surplus materials from and about
the Project.
§ 3.15.2 If the Contractor fails to clean up as provided in the Contract Documents, the Owner may do so and the Owner
shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Contractor.
§ 3.16 Access to Work The Contractor shall provide the Owner and Architect with access to the Work in preparation and progress wherever

acts or omissions of the Contractor, a Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone for
whose acts they may be liable, regardless of whether or not such claim, damage, loss, or expense is caused in part by a
party indemnified hereunder. Such obligation shall not be construed to negate, abridge, or reduce other rights or
obligations of indemnity that would otherwise exist as to a party or person described in this Section 3.18.
§ 3.18.2 In claims against any person or entity indemnified under this Section 3.18 by an employee of the Contractor,
a Subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone for whose acts they may be liable, the
indemnification obligation under Section 3.18.1 shall not be limited by a limitation on amount or type of damages,

disability benefit acts, or other employee benefit acts.
ARTICLE 4 ARCHITECT § 4.1 General § 4.1.1 The Architect is the person or entity retained by the Owner pursuant to Section 2.3.2 and identified as such in
the Agreement.
§ 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.
§ 4.2 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 during construction until the date the Architect issues the final Certificate for Payment. The
Architect will have authority to act on behalf of the Owner only to the extent provided in the Contract Documents.
§ 4.2.2 The Architect will visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of construction, or as otherwise agreed with
the Owner, to become generally familiar with the progress and quality of the portion of the Work completed, and to
determine in general if the Work observed 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 not have
control over, charge of, or responsibility 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.
§ 4.2.3 On the basis of the site visits, the Architect will keep the Owner reasonably informed about the progress and
quality of the portion of the Work completed, and promptly report to the Owner (1) known deviations from the
Contract Documents, (2) known deviations from the most recent construction schedule submitted by the Contractor,
and (3) defects and deficiencies observed in the Work. 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, or
their agents or employees, or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work.
§ 4.2.4 Communications The Owner and Contractor shall include the Architect in all communications that relate to or affect the Architect’s
services or professional responsibilities. The Owner shall promptly notify the Architect of the substance of any direct
communications between the Owner and the Contractor otherwise relating to the Project. Communications by and
with the Architect’s consultants shall be through the Architect. Communications by and with Subcontractors and
suppliers shall be through the Contractor. Communications by and with Separate Contractors shall be through the
Owner. The Contract Documents may specify other communication protocols.
§ 4.2.5 Based on the Architect’s evaluations of the Contractor’s Applications for Payment, the Architect will review
and certify the amounts due the Contractor and will issue Certificates for Payment in such amounts.
§ 4.2.6 The Architect has 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 13.4.2 and 13.4.3, whether or not the 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, 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
in accordance with the submittal schedule approved by the Architect or, in the absence of an approved submittal
schedule, with reasonable promptness 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 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 order minor changes
in the Work as provided in Section 7.4. The Architect will investigate and make determinations and recommendations
regarding concealed and unknown conditions as provided in Section 3.7.4.
§ 4.2.9 The Architect will conduct inspections to determine the date or dates of Substantial Completion and the date of
final completion; issue Certificates of Substantial Completion pursuant to Section 9.8; receive and forward to the

assembled by the Contractor pursuant to Section 9.10; and issue a final Certificate for Payment pursuant to
Section 9.10.
§ 4.2.10 If the Owner and Architect agree, the Architect will provide one or more Project representatives to assist in

duties, responsibilities and limitations of authority of the Project representatives.
§ 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.
§ 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
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 rendered in good faith.
§ 4.2.13 The Architect’s decisions on matters relating to aesthetic effect will be final if consistent with the intent
expressed in the Contract Documents.
§ 4.2.14 The Architect will review and respond to requests for information about the Contract Documents. The
Architect’s response to such requests will be made in writing within any time limits agreed upon or otherwise with
reasonable promptness. If appropriate, the Architect will prepare and issue supplemental Drawings and Specifications

§ 5.2 Award of Subcontracts and Other Contracts for Portions of the Work § 5.2.1 Unless otherwise stated in the Contract Documents, the Contractor, as soon as practicable after award of the
Contract, shall notify the Owner and Architect of the persons or entities proposed for each principal portion of the
Work, including those who are to furnish materials or equipment fabricated to a special design. Within 14 days of
receipt of the information, the Architect may notify the Contractor whether the Owner or the Architect (1) has
reasonable objection to any such proposed person or entity or (2) requires additional time for review. Failure of the
Architect to provide notice within the 14-day period 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 substitute a Subcontractor, person, or entity for one previously selected if the Owner
or Architect makes reasonable objection to such substitution.
§ 5.3 Subcontractual Relations By appropriate written agreement, 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 that the Contractor, by these Contract 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 that 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
.1 assignment is effective only after termination of the Contract by the Owner for cause pursuant to
Section 14.2 and only for those subcontract agreements that the Owner accepts by notifying the
Subcontractor and Contractor; and
.2 assignment is subject to the prior rights of the surety, if any, obligated under bond relating to the
Contract.
When the Owner accepts the assignment of a subcontract agreement, the Owner assumes the Contractor’s rights and
obligations under the subcontract.
§ 5.4.2 Upon such assignment, if the Work has been suspended for more than 30 days, the Subcontractor’s
compensation shall be equitably adjusted for increases in cost resulting from the suspension.
§ 5.4.3 Upon assignment to the Owner under this Section 5.4, the Owner may further assign the subcontract to a
successor contractor or other entity. If the Owner assigns the subcontract to a successor contractor or other entity, the
Owner shall nevertheless remain legally responsible for all of the successor contractor’s obligations under the
subcontract.

ARTICLE 6 CONSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR BY SEPARATE CONTRACTORS § 6.1 Owner’s Right to Perform Construction and to Award Separate Contracts § 6.1.1 The term “Separate Contractor(s)” shall mean other contractors retained by the Owner under separate
agreements. The Owner reserves the right to perform construction or operations related to the Project with the
Owner’s own forces, and with Separate Contractors retained under Conditions of the Contract substantially similar to
those of this Contract, including those provisions of the Conditions of the Contract related to insurance and waiver of
subrogation.
§ 6.1.2 When separate contracts are awarded for different portions of the Project or other construction or operations on
the site, the term “Contractor” in the Contract Documents in each case shall mean the Contractor who executes each
separate Owner-Contractor Agreement.
§ 6.1.3 The Owner shall provide for coordination of the activities of the Owner’s own forces and of each Separate
Contractor with the Work of the Contractor, who shall cooperate with them. The Contractor shall participate with any
Separate Contractors and the Owner in reviewing their construction schedules. The Contractor shall make any
revisions to its construction schedule deemed necessary after a joint review and mutual agreement. The construction
schedules shall then constitute the schedules to be used by the Contractor, Separate Contractors, and the Owner until
subsequently revised.
§ 6.1.4 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, when the Owner performs construction or operations
related to the Project with the Owner’s own forces or with Separate Contractors, the Owner or its Separate Contractors
shall have the same obligations and rights that the Contractor has under the Conditions of the Contract, including,
without excluding others, those stated in Article 3, this Article 6, and Articles 10, 11, and 12.
§ 6.2 Mutual Responsibility § 6.2.1 The Contractor shall afford the Owner and Separate Contractors reasonable opportunity for introduction and
storage of their materials and equipment and performance of their activities, and shall connect and coordinate the
Contractor’s construction and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents.
§ 6.2.2 If part of the Contractor’s Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the
Owner or a Separate Contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly
notify the Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate
Contractor that would render it unsuitable for proper execution and results of the Contractor’s Work. Failure of the
Contractor to notify the Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects prior to proceeding with the Work shall
constitute an acknowledgment that the Owner’s or Separate Contractor’s completed or partially completed
construction is fit and proper to receive the Contractor’s Work. The Contractor shall not be responsible for
discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate Contractor that are not apparent.
§ 6.2.3 The Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for costs the Owner incurs that are payable to a Separate Contractor
because of the Contractor’s delays, improperly timed activities or defective construction. The Owner shall be
responsible to the Contractor for costs the Contractor incurs because of a Separate Contractor’s delays, improperly
timed activities, damage to the Work or defective construction.
§ 6.2.4 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage that the Contractor wrongfully causes to completed or partially
completed construction or to property of the Owner or Separate Contractor as provided in Section 10.2.5.
§ 6.2.5 The Owner and each Separate Contractor shall have the same responsibilities for cutting and patching as are
described for the Contractor in Section 3.14.
§ 6.3 Owner’s Right to Clean Up If a dispute arises among the Contractor, Separate Contractors, and the Owner as to the responsibility under their
respective contracts for maintaining the premises and surrounding area free from waste materials and rubbish, the
Owner may clean up and the Architect will allocate the cost among those responsible.

ARTICLE 7 CHANGES IN THE WORK § 7.1 General § 7.1.1 Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Contract, and without invalidating the
Contract, by Change Order, Construction Change Directive or order for a minor change in the Work, subject to the
limitations stated in this Article 7 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
§ 7.1.2 A Change Order shall be based upon agreement among the Owner, Contractor, and Architect. A Construction
Change Directive requires agreement by the Owner and Architect and may or may not be agreed to by the Contractor.
An order for a minor change in the Work may be issued by the Architect alone.
§ 7.1.3 Changes in the Work shall be performed under applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. The
Contractor shall proceed promptly with changes in the Work, unless otherwise provided in the Change Order,
Construction Change Directive, or order for a minor change in the Work.
§ 7.2 Change Orders § 7.2.1 A Change Order is a written instrument prepared by the Architect and signed by the Owner, Contractor, and
Architect stating their agreement upon all of the following:
.1 The change in the Work;
.2 The amount of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum; and
.3 The extent of the adjustment, if any, in the Contract Time.
§ 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 7.3.4.
§ 7.3.4 If the Contractor does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum,
the Architect shall determine the adjustment 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, an amount for overhead and
profit as set forth in the Agreement, or if no such amount is set forth in the Agreement, a reasonable amount. 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 7.3.4 shall be limited to the following:
.1 Costs of labor, including applicable payroll taxes, fringe benefits required by agreement or custom,
workers’ compensation insurance, and other employee costs approved by the Architect;
.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, directly
related to the change; and
.5 Costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change.

§ 7.3.5 If the Contractor disagrees with the adjustment in the Contract Time, the Contractor may make a Claim in
accordance with applicable provisions of Article 15.
§ 7.3.6 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.
§ 7.3.7 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Contractor indicates the Contractor’s agreement 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.
§ 7.3.8 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Contractor to the Owner for a deletion or change that 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.
§ 7.3.9 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, the Contractor
may request payment for Work completed under the Construction Change Directive in Applications for Payment. The
Architect will make an interim determination for purposes of monthly certification for payment for those costs and
certify for payment the amount that the Architect determines, in the Architect’s professional judgment, to be
reasonably justified. The Architect’s interim 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 15.
§ 7.3.10 When the Owner and Contractor agree with a determination made by the Architect concerning the
adjustments in the Contract Sum and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such
agreement shall be effective immediately and the Architect will prepare a Change Order. Change Orders may be
issued for all or any part of a Construction Change Directive.
§ 7.4 Minor Changes in the Work The Architect may order minor changes in the Work that are consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents and
do not involve an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time. The Architect’s order for
minor changes shall be in writing. If the Contractor believes that the proposed minor change in the Work will affect the
Contract Sum or Contract Time, the Contractor shall notify the Architect and shall not proceed to implement the
change in the Work. If the Contractor performs the Work set forth in the Architect’s order for a minor change without
prior notice to the Architect that such change will affect the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the Contractor waives any
adjustment to the Contract Sum or extension of the Contract Time.
ARTICLE 8 TIME § 8.1 Definitions § 8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in
the Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work.
§ 8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement.
§ 8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by the Architect in accordance with Section 9.8.
§ 8.1.4 The term “day” as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically
defined.
§ 8.2 Progress and Completion § 8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement,
the Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work.
§ 8.2.2 The Contractor shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, commence the
Work prior to the effective date of insurance required to be furnished by the Contractor and Owner.

§ 8.2.3 The Contractor shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion
within the Contract Time.
§ 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time § 8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the commencement or progress of the Work by (1) an act or neglect
of the Owner or Architect, of an employee of either, or of a Separate Contractor; (2) by changes ordered in the Work;
(3) by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties, adverse weather conditions documented
in accordance with Section 15.1.6.2, or other causes beyond the Contractor’s control; (4) by delay authorized by the
Owner pending mediation and binding dispute resolution; or (5) by other causes that the Contractor asserts, and the
Architect determines, justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended for such reasonable time as the Architect
may determine.
§ 8.3.2 Claims relating to time shall be made in accordance with applicable provisions of Article 15.
§ 8.3.3 This Section 8.3 does not preclude recovery of damages for delay by either party under other provisions of the
Contract Documents.
ARTICLE 9 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION § 9.1 Contract Sum § 9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount
payable by the Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents.
§ 9.1.2 If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if quantities originally
contemplated are materially changed so that application of such unit prices to the actual quantities causes substantial
inequity to the Owner or Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted.
§ 9.2 Schedule of Values Where the Contract is based on a stipulated sum or Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Contractor shall submit a
schedule of values to the Architect before the first Application for Payment, allocating the entire Contract Sum to the
various portions of the Work. The schedule of values shall be prepared in the form, and supported by the data to
substantiate its accuracy, required by the Architect. This schedule, unless objected to by the Architect, shall be used as
a basis for reviewing the Contractor’s Applications for Payment. Any changes to the schedule of values shall be
submitted to the Architect and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Architect may require, and
unless objected to by the Architect, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor’s subsequent Applications for
Payment.
§ 9.3 Applications for Payment § 9.3.1 At least ten days before the date established for each progress payment, the Contractor shall submit to the
Architect an itemized Application for Payment prepared in accordance with the schedule of values, if required under
Section 9.2, for completed portions of the Work. The application shall be notarized, if required, and supported by all
data substantiating the Contractor’s right to payment that the Owner or Architect require, such as copies of
requisitions, and releases and waivers of liens from Subcontractors and suppliers, and shall reflect retainage if
provided for in the Contract Documents.
§ 9.3.1.1 As provided in Section 7.3.9, such applications may include requests for payment on account of changes in
the Work that 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 Applications for Payment shall not include requests for payment for portions of the Work for which the
Contractor does not intend to pay a Subcontractor or 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 shall include the costs of applicable insurance, storage,
and transportation to the site, for such materials and equipment stored off the site.
§ 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, suppliers, or other persons or entities that 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 (1) issue
to the Owner a Certificate for Payment in the full amount of the Application for Payment, with a copy to the
Contractor; or (2) issue to the Owner a Certificate for Payment for such amount as the Architect determines is properly
due, and notify the Contractor and Owner of the Architect’s reasons for withholding certification in part as provided in
Section 9.5.1; or (3) withhold certification of the entire Application for Payment, and notify the Contractor and Owner
of the Architect’s reason for withholding certification in whole 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 in the Application for Payment, that, to the best of the
Architect’s knowledge, information, and belief, the Work has progressed to the point indicated, the quality of the
Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, and that the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount
certified. 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.
However, the issuance of a Certificate for Payment will 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 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 suppliers 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 a Separate 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 repeated failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
§ 9.5.2 When either party disputes the Architect’s decision regarding a Certificate for Payment under Section 9.5.1, in
whole or in part, that party may submit a Claim in accordance with Article 15.
§ 9.5.3 When the reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously
withheld.

§ 9.5.4 If the Architect withholds certification for payment under Section 9.5.1.3, the Owner may, at its sole option,
issue joint checks to the Contractor and to any Subcontractor or supplier to whom the Contractor failed to make
payment for Work properly performed or material or equipment suitably delivered. If the Owner makes payments by
joint check, the Owner shall notify the Architect and the Contractor shall reflect such payment on its next Application
for Payment.
§ 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 pay each Subcontractor, no later than seven days after receipt of payment from the Owner,
the amount to which the Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the
Contractor on account of the 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 The Owner has the right to request written evidence from the Contractor that the Contractor has properly paid
Subcontractors and suppliers amounts paid by the Owner to the Contractor for subcontracted Work. If the Contractor
fails to furnish such evidence within seven days, the Owner shall have the right to contact Subcontractors and suppliers
to ascertain whether they have been properly paid. Neither the Owner nor Architect shall have an obligation to pay, or
to see to the payment of money to, a Subcontractor or supplier, except as may otherwise be required by law.
§ 9.6.5 The Contractor’s payments to 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 or provided by 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, create any fiduciary
liability or tort liability on the part of the Contractor for breach of trust, or entitle any person or entity to an award of
punitive damages against the Contractor for breach of the requirements of this provision.
§ 9.6.8 Provided the Owner has fulfilled its payment obligations under the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall
defend and indemnify the Owner from all loss, liability, damage or expense, including reasonable attorney’s fees and
litigation expenses, arising out of any lien claim or other claim for payment by any Subcontractor or supplier of any
tier. Upon receipt of notice of a lien claim or other claim for payment, the Owner shall notify the Contractor. If
approved by the applicable court, when required, the Contractor may substitute a surety bond for the property against
which the lien or other claim for payment has been asserted.
§ 9.7 Failure of Payment 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 binding
dispute resolution, then the Contractor may, upon seven additional days’ 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 shutdown, delay and
start-up, plus interest as provided for in the Contract Documents.

§ 9.8 Substantial Completion § 9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is
sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so that the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for
its intended use.
§ 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 that shall establish the date of Substantial Completion; establish responsibilities of the
Owner and Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance; and 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.
§ 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 the Certificate. Upon such acceptance, and consent of surety if any,
the Owner shall make payment of retainage applying to the 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 and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Project. 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 the Contractor’s 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. When the Architect finds
the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, 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 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, (3) a written statement that the Contractor
knows of no 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, (5) documentation of any special warranties, such as manufacturers’
warranties or specific Subcontractor warranties, and (6) if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or
satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts and 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, claim, security interest, or encumbrance. If a lien,
claim, security interest, or encumbrance 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 the lien, claim, security interest, or
encumbrance, 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, and without terminating the
Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed, corrected, 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 the 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;
.3 terms of special warranties required by the Contract Documents; or
.4 audits performed by the Owner, if permitted by the Contract Documents, after final payment.
§ 9.10.5 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or a 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.
ARTICLE 10 PROTECTION OF PERSONS AND PROPERTY § 10.1 Safety Precautions and Programs The Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining, and supervising all safety precautions and programs in
connection with the performance of the Contract.
§ 10.2 Safety of Persons and Property § 10.2.1 The Contractor shall take reasonable precautions for safety of, and shall provide reasonable protection to
prevent damage, injury, or loss to
.1 employees on the Work and other persons who may be affected thereby;
.2 the Work and materials and equipment to be incorporated therein, whether in storage on or off the site,
under care, custody, or control of the Contractor, a Subcontractor, or a Sub-subcontractor; and
.3 other property at the site or adjacent thereto, such as trees, shrubs, lawns, walks, pavements, roadways,
structures, and utilities not designated for removal, relocation, or replacement in the course of
construction.
§ 10.2.2 The Contractor shall comply with, and give notices required by applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes,
rules and 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 implement, erect, and maintain, as required by existing conditions and performance of
the Contract, reasonable safeguards for safety and protection, including posting danger signs and other warnings

against hazards; promulgating safety regulations; and notifying the owners and users of adjacent sites and utilities of
the safeguards.
§ 10.2.4 When use or storage of explosives or other hazardous materials or equipment, or unusual methods are
necessary for execution of the Work, the Contractor shall exercise utmost care and carry on such activities under
supervision of properly qualified personnel.
§ 10.2.5 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage and loss (other than damage or loss insured under property
insurance required by the Contract Documents) to property referred to in Sections 10.2.1.2 and 10.2.1.3 caused in
whole or in part by the Contractor, a Subcontractor, a 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 responsible under
Sections 10.2.1.2 and 10.2.1.3. The Contractor may make a Claim for the cost to remedy the damage or loss to the
extent such damage or loss 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. 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 Architect.
§ 10.2.7 The Contractor shall not permit any part of the construction or site to be loaded so as to cause damage or
create an unsafe condition.
§ 10.2.8 Injury or Damage to Person or Property If either party 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, notice of the 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.
§ 10.3 Hazardous Materials and Substances § 10.3.1 The Contractor is responsible for compliance with any requirements included in the Contract Documents
regarding hazardous materials or substances. If the Contractor encounters a hazardous material or substance not
addressed in the Contract Documents and 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 biphenyl (PCB), encountered on the site by the Contractor, the Contractor shall, upon recognizing the
condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and notify the Owner and Architect of the condition.
§ 10.3.2 Upon receipt of the Contractor’s notice, 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 cause it to be 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 the material or substance or who are to
perform the task of removal or safe containment of the 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. By Change Order, the Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the
Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the Contractor’s reasonable additional costs of shutdown, delay, and
start-up.
§ 10.3.3 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Owner shall indemnify and hold harmless the Contractor,
Subcontractors, Architect, Architect’s consultants, and agents and employees of any of them from and against claims,
damages, losses, and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, arising out of or resulting from
performance of the Work in the affected area if in fact the material or substance presents the risk of bodily injury or
death as described in Section 10.3.1 and has not been rendered harmless, provided that such claim, damage, loss, or
expense is attributable to bodily injury, sickness, disease or death, or to injury to or destruction of tangible property

to the Owner’s fault or negligence.
§ 10.3.6 If, without negligence on the part of the Contractor, the Contractor is held liable by a government agency for
the cost of remediation of a hazardous material or substance solely by reason of performing Work as required by the
Contract Documents, the Owner shall reimburse the Contractor for all cost and expense thereby incurred.
§ 10.4 Emergencies In an emergency affecting safety of persons or property, the Contractor shall act, at the Contractor’s discretion, to
prevent threatened damage, injury, or loss. Additional compensation or extension of time claimed by the Contractor on
account of an emergency shall be determined as provided in Article 15 and Article 7.

endorsements, and subject to the terms and conditions, as described in the Agreement or elsewhere in the Contract
Documents. The Contractor shall purchase and maintain the required insurance from an insurance company or

date the Contractor becomes aware of an impending or actual cancellation or expiration of any insurance required by
the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall provide notice to the Owner of such impending or actual cancellation or
expiration. Upon receipt of notice from the Contractor, the Owner shall, unless the lapse in coverage arises from an act
or omission of the Owner, have the right to stop the Work until the lapse in coverage has been cured by the
procurement of replacement coverage by the Contractor. The furnishing of notice by the Contractor shall not relieve
the Contractor of any contractual obligation to provide any required coverage.
§ 11.2 Owner’s Insurance § 11.2.1 The Owner shall purchase and maintain insurance of the types and limits of liability, containing the
endorsements, and subject to the terms and conditions, as described in the Agreement or elsewhere in the Contract
Documents. The Owner shall purchase and maintain the required insurance from an insurance company or insurance
companies lawfully authorized to issue insurance in the jurisdiction where the Project is located.
§ 11.2.2 Failure to Purchase Required Property Insurance. If the Owner fails to purchase and maintain the required
property insurance, with all of the coverages and in the amounts described in the Agreement or elsewhere in the
Contract Documents, the Owner shall inform the Contractor in writing prior to commencement of the Work. Upon
receipt of notice from the Owner, the Contractor may delay commencement of the Work and may obtain insurance that
will protect the interests of the Contractor, Subcontractors, and Sub-Subcontractors in the Work. When the failure to

provide coverage has been cured or resolved, the Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be equitably adjusted. In the
event the Owner fails to procure coverage, the Owner waives all rights against the Contractor, Subcontractors, and
Sub-subcontractors to the extent the loss to the Owner would have been covered by the insurance to have been
procured by the Owner. The cost of the insurance shall be charged to the Owner by a Change Order. If the Owner does
not provide written notice, and the Contractor is damaged by the failure or neglect of the Owner to purchase or
maintain the required insurance, the Owner shall reimburse the Contractor for all reasonable costs and damages
attributable thereto.
§ 11.2.3 Notice of Cancellation or Expiration of Owner’s Required Property Insurance. Within three (3) business days of
the date the Owner becomes aware of an impending or actual cancellation or expiration of any property insurance
required by the Contract Documents, the Owner shall provide notice to the Contractor of such impending or actual
cancellation or expiration. Unless the lapse in coverage arises from an act or omission of the Contractor: (1) the
Contractor, upon receipt of notice from the Owner, shall have the right to stop the Work until the lapse in coverage has
been cured by the procurement of replacement coverage by either the Owner or the Contractor; (2) the Contract Time
and Contract Sum shall be equitably adjusted; and (3) the Owner waives all rights against the Contractor,
Subcontractors, and Sub-subcontractors to the extent any loss to the Owner would have been covered by the insurance
had it not expired or been cancelled. If the Contractor purchases replacement coverage, the cost of the insurance shall
be charged to the Owner by an appropriate Change Order. The furnishing of notice by the Owner shall not relieve the
Owner of any contractual obligation to provide required insurance.
§ 11.3 Waivers of Subrogation § 11.3.1 The Owner and Contractor waive all rights against (1) each other and any of their subcontractors,
sub-subcontractors, agents, and employees, each of the other; (2) the Architect and Architect’s consultants; and (3)
Separate Contractors, if any, and any of their subcontractors, sub-subcontractors, agents, and employees, for damages
caused by fire, or other causes of loss, to the extent those losses are covered by property insurance required by the
Agreement or other property insurance applicable to the Project, except such rights as they have to proceeds of such
insurance. The Owner or Contractor, as appropriate, shall require similar written waivers in favor of the individuals
and entities identified above from the Architect, Architect’s consultants, Separate Contractors, subcontractors, and
sub-subcontractors. The policies of insurance purchased and maintained by each person or entity agreeing to waive
claims pursuant to this section 11.3.1 shall not prohibit this waiver of subrogation. This waiver of subrogation shall be
effective as to a person or entity (1) even though that person or entity would otherwise have a duty of indemnification,
contractual or otherwise, (2) even though that person or entity did not pay the insurance premium directly or indirectly,
or (3) whether or not the person or entity had an insurable interest in the damaged property.
§ 11.3.2 If during the Project construction period the Owner insures properties, real or personal or both, at or adjacent
to the site by property insurance under policies separate from those insuring the Project, or if after final payment
property insurance is to be provided on the completed Project through a policy or policies other than those insuring the
Project during the construction period, to the extent permissible by such policies, the Owner waives all rights in
accordance with the terms of Section 11.3.1 for damages caused by fire or other causes of loss covered by this separate
property insurance.
§ 11.4 Loss of Use, Business Interruption, and Delay in Completion Insurance The Owner, at the Owner’s option, may purchase and maintain insurance that will protect the Owner against loss of
use of the Owner’s property, or the inability to conduct normal operations, due to fire or other causes of loss. The
Owner waives all rights of action against the Contractor and Architect for loss of use of the Owner’s property, due to
fire or other hazards however caused.
§11.5 Adjustment and Settlement of Insured Loss § 11.5.1 A loss insured under the property insurance required by the Agreement shall be adjusted by the Owner as
fiduciary and made payable to the Owner as fiduciary for the insureds, as their interests may appear, subject to
requirements of any applicable mortgagee clause and of Section 11.5.2. The Owner shall pay the Architect and
Contractor their just shares of insurance proceeds received by the Owner, and by appropriate agreements the Architect
and Contractor shall make payments to their consultants and Subcontractors in similar manner.
§ 11.5.2 Prior to settlement of an insured loss, the Owner shall notify the Contractor of the terms of the proposed
settlement as well as the proposed allocation of the insurance proceeds. The Contractor shall have 14 days from receipt
of notice to object to the proposed settlement or allocation of the proceeds. If the Contractor does not object, the
Owner shall settle the loss and the Contractor shall be bound by the settlement and allocation. Upon receipt, the Owner

shall deposit the insurance proceeds in a separate account and make the appropriate distributions. Thereafter, if no
other agreement is made or the Owner does not terminate the Contract for convenience, the Owner and Contractor
shall execute a Change Order for reconstruction of the damaged or destroyed Work in the amount allocated for that
purpose. If the Contractor timely objects to either the terms of the proposed settlement or the allocation of the
proceeds, the Owner may proceed to settle the insured loss, and any dispute between the Owner and Contractor arising
out of the settlement or allocation of the proceeds shall be resolved pursuant to Article 15. Pending resolution of any
dispute, the Owner may issue a Construction Change Directive for the reconstruction of the damaged or destroyed
Work.
ARTICLE 12 UNCOVERING AND CORRECTION OF WORK § 12.1 Uncovering of Work § 12.1.1 If a portion of the Work is covered contrary to the Architect’s request or to requirements specifically
expressed in the Contract Documents, it must, if requested in writing by the Architect, be uncovered for the Architect’s
examination and be replaced at the Contractor’s expense without change in the Contract Time.
§ 12.1.2 If a portion of the Work has been covered that the Architect has not specifically requested to examine prior to
its being covered, the Architect may request to see such Work and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If such
Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment to the
Contract Sum and Contract Time as may be appropriate. If such Work is not in accordance with the Contract
Documents, the costs of uncovering the Work, and the cost of correction, shall be at the Contractor’s expense.
§ 12.2 Correction of Work § 12.2.1 Before Substantial Completion The Contractor shall promptly correct Work rejected by the Architect or failing to conform to the requirements of the
Contract Documents, discovered before Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or completed.
Costs of correcting such rejected Work, including additional testing and inspections, the cost of uncovering and
replacement, and compensation for the Architect’s services and expenses made necessary thereby, shall be at the
Contractor’s expense.
§ 12.2.2 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 any 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 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 correct nonconforming Work within a reasonable time during
that period after receipt of notice from the Owner or Architect, the Owner may correct it in accordance with
Section 2.5.
§ 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
completion of that portion 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.
§ 12.2.3 The Contractor shall remove from the site portions of the Work that 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 of the Owner or Separate
Contractors, whether completed or partially completed, caused by the Contractor’s correction or removal of Work that
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 the Contractor has 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 If the Owner prefers to accept Work that 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 and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.
ARTICLE 13 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS § 13.1 Governing Law The Contract shall be governed by the law of the place where the Project is located, excluding that jurisdiction’s
choice of law rules. If the parties have selected arbitration as the method of binding dispute resolution, the Federal
Arbitration Act shall govern Section 15.4.
§ 13.2 Successors and Assigns § 13.2.1 The Owner and Contractor respectively bind themselves, their partners, successors, assigns, and legal
representatives to covenants, agreements, and obligations contained in the Contract Documents. Except as provided in
Section 13.2.2, neither party to the Contract shall assign the Contract as a whole without written consent of the other.
If either party attempts to make an assignment without such consent, that party shall nevertheless remain legally
responsible for all obligations under the Contract.
§ 13.2.2 The Owner may, without consent of the Contractor, assign the Contract to a lender providing construction
financing for the Project, if the lender assumes the Owner’s rights and obligations under the Contract Documents. The
Contractor shall execute all consents reasonably required to facilitate the assignment.
§ 13.3 Rights and Remedies § 13.3.1 Duties and obligations imposed by the Contract Documents and rights and remedies available thereunder
shall be in addition to and not a limitation of duties, obligations, rights, and remedies otherwise imposed or available
by law.
§ 13.3.2 No action or failure to act by the Owner, Architect, or Contractor shall constitute a waiver of a right or duty
afforded them under the Contract, nor shall such action or failure to act constitute approval of or acquiescence in a
breach thereunder, except as may be specifically agreed upon in writing.
§ 13.4 Tests and Inspections § 13.4.1 Tests, inspections, and approvals of portions of the Work shall be made as required by the Contract
Documents and by applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules, and regulations or lawful orders of public
authorities. Unless otherwise provided, the Contractor shall make arrangements for such tests, inspections, and
approvals with an independent testing laboratory or entity acceptable to the Owner, or with the appropriate public
authority, and shall bear all related costs of tests, inspections, and approvals. The Contractor shall give the Architect
timely notice of when and where tests and inspections are to be made so that the Architect may be present for such
procedures. The Owner shall bear costs of tests, inspections, or approvals that do not become requirements until after
bids are received or negotiations concluded. The Owner shall directly arrange and pay for tests, inspections, or
approvals where building codes or applicable laws or regulations so require.
§ 13.4.2 If the Architect, Owner, or public authorities having jurisdiction determine that portions of the Work require
additional testing, inspection, or approval not included under Section 13.4.1, the Architect will, upon written
authorization from the Owner, instruct the Contractor to make arrangements for such additional testing, inspection, or
approval, by an entity acceptable to the Owner, and the Contractor shall give timely notice to the Architect of when
and where tests and inspections are to be made so that the Architect may be present for such procedures. Such costs,
except as provided in Section 13.4.3, shall be at the Owner’s expense.
§ 13.4.3 If procedures for testing, inspection, or approval under Sections 13.4.1 and 13.4.2 reveal failure of the
portions of the Work to comply with requirements established by the Contract Documents, all costs made necessary by
such failure, including those of repeated procedures and compensation for the Architect’s services and expenses, shall
be at the Contractor’s expense.

§ 13.4.4 Required certificates of testing, inspection, or approval shall, unless otherwise required by the Contract
Documents, be secured by the Contractor and promptly delivered to the Architect.
§ 13.4.5 If the Architect is to observe tests, inspections, or approvals required by the Contract Documents, the
Architect will do so promptly and, where practicable, at the normal place of testing.
§ 13.4.6 Tests or inspections conducted pursuant to the Contract Documents shall be made promptly to avoid
unreasonable delay in the Work.
§ 13.5 Interest Payments due and unpaid under the Contract Documents shall bear interest from the date payment is due at the rate the

the Project is located.
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, a Subcontractor, a Sub-subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any other persons
or entities performing portions of the Work, for any of the following reasons:
.1 Issuance of an order of a court or other public authority having jurisdiction that requires all Work to be
stopped;
.2 An act of government, such as a declaration of national emergency, that 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 reasonable evidence as required by Section 2.2.
§ 14.1.2 The Contractor may terminate the Contract if, through no act or fault of the Contractor, a Subcontractor, a
Sub-subcontractor, their agents or employees, or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work,

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’ notice

§ 14.1.4 If the Work is stopped for a period of 60 consecutive days through no act or fault of the Contractor, a
Subcontractor, a Sub-subcontractor, or their agents or employees or any other persons or entities performing portions
of the Work because the Owner has repeatedly 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’ 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 repeatedly refuses or fails to supply enough properly skilled workers or proper materials;
.2 fails to make payment to Subcontractors or suppliers in accordance with the respective agreements
between the Contractor and the Subcontractors or suppliers;
.3 repeatedly disregards applicable laws, statutes, ordinances, codes, rules and regulations, or lawful
orders of a public authority; or
.4 otherwise is guilty of substantial breach of a provision of the Contract Documents.
§ 14.2.2 When any of the reasons described in Section 14.2.1 exist, and upon certification by the Architect that
sufficient cause exists to justify such action, the Owner 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’ notice, terminate employment
of the Contractor and may, subject to any prior rights of the surety:

of the Contractor, the Owner shall furnish to the Contractor a detailed accounting of the costs incurred
by the Owner in finishing the Work.
§ 14.2.3 When the Owner terminates the Contract for 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

termination of the Contract.

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 under Section 14.3.1. Adjustment of the Contract Sum shall include profit. No
adjustment shall be made to the extent

for which the Contractor is responsible; or
.2 that an equitable adjustment is made or denied under another provision of the Contract.

purchase orders.
§ 14.4.3 In case of such termination for the Owner’s convenience, the Owner shall pay the Contractor for Work

other party and to the Initial Decision Maker with a copy sent to the Architect, if the Architect is not serving as the
Initial Decision Maker. Claims by either party under this Section 15.1.3.1 shall be initiated within 21 days after

giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later.
§ 15.1.3.2 Claims by either the Owner or Contractor, where the condition giving rise to the Claim is first discovered
after expiration of the period for correction of the Work set forth in Section 12.2.2, shall be initiated by notice to the
other party. In such event, no decision by the Initial Decision Maker is required.
§ 15.1.4 Continuing Contract Performance § 15.1.4.1 Pending final resolution of a Claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing or as provided in Section 9.7 and

§ 15.1.6.2 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.
§ 15.1.7 Waiver of 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

and all affected parties agree, the Initial Decision Maker will not decide disputes between the Contractor and persons
or entities other than the Owner.
§ 15.2.2 The Initial Decision Maker will review Claims and within ten days of the receipt of a 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 Initial Decision Maker is unable to resolve the Claim if the Initial Decision Maker lacks
sufficient information to evaluate the merits of the Claim or if the Initial Decision Maker concludes that, in the Initial
Decision Maker’s sole discretion, it would be inappropriate for the Initial Decision Maker to resolve the Claim.
§ 15.2.3 In evaluating Claims, the Initial Decision Maker 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 Initial Decision
Maker in rendering a decision. The Initial Decision Maker may request the Owner to authorize retention of such
persons at the Owner’s expense.
§ 15.2.4 If the Initial Decision Maker 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 the request, and shall either (1) provide a
response on the requested supporting data, (2) advise the Initial Decision Maker when the response or supporting data
will be furnished, or (3) advise the Initial Decision Maker that no supporting data will be furnished. Upon receipt of
the response or supporting data, if any, the Initial Decision Maker will either reject or approve the Claim in whole or in
part.
§ 15.2.5 The Initial Decision Maker will render an initial decision approving or rejecting the Claim, or indicating that
the Initial Decision Maker is unable to resolve the Claim. This initial decision shall (1) be in writing; (2) state the
reasons therefor; and (3) notify the parties and the Architect, if the Architect is not serving as the Initial Decision
Maker, of any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both. The initial decision shall be final and binding on
the parties but subject to mediation and, if the parties fail to resolve their dispute through mediation, to binding dispute
resolution.
§ 15.2.6 Either party may file for mediation of an initial decision at any time, subject to the terms of Section 15.2.6.1.
§ 15.2.6.1 Either party may, within 30 days from the date of receipt of an initial decision, demand in writing that the
other party file for mediation. If such a demand is made and the party receiving the demand fails to file for mediation
within 30 days after receipt thereof, then both parties waive their rights to mediate or pursue binding dispute resolution
proceedings with respect to the initial decision.
§ 15.2.7 In the event of a Claim against the Contractor, 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 Owner may,
but is not obligated to, notify the surety and request the surety’s assistance in resolving the controversy.
§ 15.2.8 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.
§ 15.3 Mediation § 15.3.1 Claims, disputes, or other matters in controversy arising out of or related to the Contract, except those waived
as provided for in Sections 9.10.4, 9.10.5, and 15.1.7, shall be subject to mediation as a condition precedent to binding
dispute resolution.
§ 15.3.2 The parties shall endeavor to resolve their Claims by mediation which, unless the parties mutually agree
otherwise, shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Construction Industry
Mediation Procedures in effect on the date of the Agreement. A request for mediation shall be made in writing,
delivered to the other party to the Contract, and filed with the person or entity administering the mediation. The request
may be made concurrently with the filing of binding dispute resolution proceedings but, in such event, mediation shall
proceed in advance of binding dispute resolution 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. If an
arbitration is stayed pursuant to this Section 15.3.2, the parties may nonetheless proceed to the selection of the
arbitrator(s) and agree upon a schedule for later proceedings.

ARTICLE 4. Contract Time; Project Schedule; Time Extension; Final Completion.. Contractor shall commence the Work on the Date of Commencement established by Owner in a written Notice to Proceed as provided in Section 1.2.. Contractor shall accomplish “Substantial Completion” of the Project (defined as the date when Owner and Architect have each issued their written approval of the Project as having been sufficiently completed so that any remaining Work, such as minor punch list items, does not preclude Owner from lawfully taking occupancy and utilizing the Project, and all equipment, utilities and engineered systems installed by Contractor are established as fully operational after testing and start-up performed by Contractor, and the governmental permitting agency (if a permit is required) has issued its temporary certificate of occupancy) not later than the Substantial Completion Date established in Section 1.3. Contractor shall accomplish “Final Completion” (defined as the later of when Architect has made its final inspection and has issued its final written approval of the Work, Owner has accepted the Work in writing, and all applicable (if any) permitting authorities have issued their written final approval of the Work (or such agencies are not able to issue their final approvals solely by reason of incomplete requirements that are not Contractor’s responsibility under the Contract Documents)) by the Final Completion Date established in Section 1.4. Contractor agrees these are reasonable deadlines for accomplishing Substantial Completion and Final Completion of the Work, taking into account all foreseeable contingencies.. If a Project Schedule is not attached as Exhibit B to this Agreement, Contractor will, not later than five (5) days after the date this Agreement is signed on behalf of both Parties, prepare and submit to Owner and Architect Contractor’s proposed project schedule for the Work in the form attached as Exhibit B. The proposed project schedule shall be sufficiently detailed and integrated to demonstrate the timing, duration and sequencing of each element of the Work, in a logical order, with a reasonable critical path showing how Contractor will accomplish Substantial Completion and Final Completion by the respective Contract Times, taking into account the Scheduled Weather Delays and progressive adjustment as necessary to avoid disruption of Owner’s ongoing operations and/or to coordinate with Owner’s separate Vendors. Contractor shall make whatever changes to the proposed project schedule Owner reasonably requires as a condition of its approval (the project schedule in form approved by Owner in writing is hereafter referred to as the “Project Schedule”). Contractor shall adhere to the Owner-approved Project Schedule at all times during the Work, unless it has received Owner’s prior written approval for a deviation from or modification to the Project Schedule. The Project Schedule shall be revised at least monthly, or at more frequent intervals as required by the conditions of the Work and Project, provided that each revision of the Project Schedule shall provide for expeditious and practicable execution of the Work consistent with the Contract Times. Compliance with the requirements of this Section 4.3 shall be a condition precedent to any payment otherwise due to Contractor. No acceptance, review, non-review, approval, objection or failure to object, in connection with any proposed or approved Project Schedule by Owner shall relieve Contractor from its sole responsibility for ensuring that the Work is properly scheduled and completed within the Contract Times. Contractor shall advise Owner in writing of an unexcused delay or imminent delay and shall take all necessary actions to recover the planned progress of the Work including:
(a) providing a detailed, accurate plan to recover the planned progress of the Work;
(b) working overtime, weekends, or additional shifts;
(c) increasing the labor and equipment on the Project;

Payments made by Owner in accordance with this Section shall be credited against amounts otherwise due to Contractor.. Contractor warrants that, provided Owner has paid all amounts otherwise currently due to Contractor, after all just setoffs, Retainage and Withholding, Contractor will not record or file, and will not cause, suffer or permit its Lower Tier Persons to record or file, any liens or stop notices in connection with the Project. If Contractor does not release any lien or stop notice recorded or filed by Contractor, or by any Lower Tier Person contrary to this Section, within ten (10) days after receipt of demand from Owner, Owner may (1) cause to be recorded the payment bonds, lien discharge bonds, or stop notice release bonds necessary to release and discharge the lien and/or to result in release of funds held in response to the stop notice or bonded stop notice pursuant to applicable Law; or (2) in the alternative, Owner may thereafter retain, out of any amount due or to become due the Contractor, one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the face amount claimed in the lien, stop notice or bonded stop notice together with any additional sums Owner considers necessary to protect Owner from loss or expense arising from such lien, stop notice or bonded stop notice; and, in either case, Contractor shall reimburse Owner for all resulting expenses incurred by Owner, including, but not limited to, bond premiums, recording charges, attorneys’ fees and disbursements.

13.2.5 Verbal notice, shortness of time, or the other party’s actual knowledge of a particular Claim Incident shall not waive, satisfy, discharge, or otherwise excuse the claimant’s strict compliance with this Paragraph.
13.2.6 Regardless of cause, Contractor and Owner shall cooperate with each other to avoid or mitigate the effects of any Claim Incident. At Owner’s written request, Contractor shall take reasonable actions to avoid or mitigate the effects of a Claim Incident, including working overtime, weekends, or additional shifts; increasing the labor and equipment on the Project; expediting the delivery of critical equipment and materials, or taking other reasonable measures to recover the planned progress of the Work. Contractor may be entitled to an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time or both for such actions to the extent authorized by the Contract Documents.
13.2.7 Should Contractor desire to make a Claim, Contractor shall make the Claim to Owner in writing within ten (10) days after Contractor knew or reasonably should have known of the Claim Incident.
13.2.8 Should Contractor be unable to make a Claim within the time set forth in this Paragraph 13.2, Contractor may notify Owner in writing and automatically obtain a ten (10) day time extension within which to make the Claim if the notice is received by Owner before the time for making a Claim has expired.
13.2.9 No time period contained herein shall be construed as limiting any right under the Applicable Laws to file a claim of lien or to make a demand under a payment or performance bond.

If, at any time Contractor encounters conditions at the Site that are not suitable for the proper and accurate performance of any of the Work including, without limitation, deficiencies in the design or in the condition of existing construction, conditions in or beneath the Site that differ materially from indications in the Contract Documents, or other improper or differing conditions that may adversely impact the Work and that are not provided for in the Contract Documents (collectively, “Improper or Differing Conditions”), Contractor shall promptly discontinue Work in the affected area, leaving the Improper or Differing Conditions as they are found (taking reasonable precautions for the protection of persons and property), notify Owner and Architect (immediately by phone or email, followed by written notice within twenty-four (24) hours identifying the Improper or Differing Conditions with specificity), and await clarification and direction before Contractor proceeds with any Work that may be affected. If the Improper or Differing Conditions were not reasonably anticipatable by Contractor during its review of the Site as provided in Section 14.2, Contractor shall be entitled to equitable adjustment of the Contract Time and Contract Sum for any resulting critical path delays or additional expenses incurred by Contractor, subject to Articles 12 and 13. If Contractor proceeds with Work after discovery of an Improper or Differing Condition without notifying Owner and deferring applicable Work as provided in this Section, Contractor shall be liable and responsible to Owner for all resulting losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses and Contractor shall be deemed to have waived any right to prosecute a Contractor Claim arising from the Improper or Differing Conditions.

If each party agrees, the more senior Representatives may elect to submit their dispute to mediation by engaging a neutral third party acceptable to both Owner and Contractor. Expenses of any such mediation shall be borne equally.
15.2 Dispute Resolution.

(b) Basing the prevailing party on offers of settlement shall not waive any rule of evidence, except to the extent necessary to administer and enforce this provision, which shall occur after any ruling on the merits of the claims and counterclaims, but before entry of a final judgment or award.
The remaining provisions in this paragraph apply only if this Agreement requires arbitration.
15.2.5 Arbitration shall be conducted and a single arbitrator selected in accordance with the then most current construction industry rules of the American Arbitration Association.

15.2.8 In the event that a person described in clauses (i), (ii), or (iii) of subparagraph 15.2.7 cannot be made a party to an arbitration between Owner and Contractor, the administrator of the arbitration shall appoint an arbitrator to determine whether such person is so indispensable to the arbitration that either Owner or Contractor is likely to be prejudiced by such person’s absence. If the arbitrator determines that such person is indispensable, the prejudiced party may elect either to proceed with arbitration or to dismiss the arbitration and proceed with litigation.
15.2.9 Balancing the expediency and economy functions of arbitration with the parties’ desire to avoid surprise and narrow issues, the arbitrator shall have authority to allow the following discovery in advance of the arbitration hearing:
(a) Require the exchange of all relevant documents within the custody, control, or possession of the parties as soon as practical; and
(b) Require each party to disclose to opposing party any expert witnesses expected to testify at the arbitration hearing, exchange expert reports, and allow depositions of such expert witnesses sufficiently in advance of the arbitration hearing.

Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of a Party to exercise any right, remedy, power or privilege under any provision of this Agreement, or with respect to any occurrence, shall operate as a waiver with respect to such provision or occurrence thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of the same or of any right, remedy, power or privilege. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the Party asserted to have granted such waiver.

ALLOWANCE SUMMARY
I. Allowances
As part of the Contract Sum, the Parties have chosen to allocate $ ______ for the completion of certain work by the Contractor which cannot be reliably predicted as of the date of the execution of the Agreement. The parties have thus determined to include certain estimates for the completion of the work for purposes of cost control and project planning. The Parties term these estimates to be “allowances” (the “Allowances”).
These Allowances are as follows:
ItemDetailed Work Item DescriptionInclusive of Specification, Unit Price and Quantity Allowance Amount
Contractor acknowledges that the inclusion of the Allowances are merely estimates of potential expenses which may or may not be incurred. If the Contractor does not incur any cost associated with the Allowance item, no Owner payment obligation shall arise.
In the event that the Contractor wishes to utilize an Allowance funds, it shall submit a Change Request (“CCR”) and obtain the Owner’s written approval prior to executing the associated work. Upon receiving the Owner’s written approval, the Contractor shall prepare a Change Order for the Owner’s execution. The Contractor shall then modify the Schedule of Values via Change Order.
Within the CCR, the Contractor shall account for any expenditures impacting the Allowance inclusive of all direct costs incurred in connection with the Allowance item, including without limitation, all labor, material, handling, transportation, loading and unloading, and installation, costs or expenses, however characterized.
The Contractor shall advise the Owner in writing when the Allowance has been depleted by greater than 50% and also prior the Allowance being fully consumed. To the extent the Contractor exceeds the Allowance Amount, the Owner shall have no payment obligation unless the Contractor receives Owner’s express written consent prior to exceeding the Allowance Amount.
Absent Owner’s prior to written consent to exceed an Allowance item, no use or non-use of any Allowance by the Contractor shall result in any impact or adjustment to the Contract Sum or form the basis for any claim for additional compensation to the Contractor, however denominated.

The Contractor and Surety are bound to the Owner in the amount set forth above, for the
payment of which the Contractor and Surety bind themselves, their heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally, as provided herein. The
conditions of this Bond are such that if the Owner accepts the bid of the Contractor within
the time specified in the bid documents, or within such time period as may be agreed to by
the Owner and Contractor, and the Contractor either (1) enters into a contract with the
Owner in accordance with the terms of such bid, and gives such bond or bonds as may be
specified in the bidding or Contract Documents, with a surety admitted in the jurisdiction
of the Project and otherwise acceptable to the Owner, for the faithful performance of such
Contract and for the prompt payment of labor and material furnished in the prosecution
thereof; or (2) pays to the Owner the difference, not to exceed the amount of this Bond,
between the amount specified in said bid and such larger amount for which the Owner
may in good faith contract with another party to perform the work covered by said bid,
then this obligation shall be null and void, otherwise to remain in full force and effect. The
Surety hereby waives any notice of an agreement between the Owner and Contractor to
extend the time in which the Owner may accept the bid. Waiver of notice by the Surety
shall not apply to any extension exceeding sixty (60) days in the aggregate beyond the
time for acceptance of bids specified in the bid documents, and the Owner and Contractor
shall obtain the Surety’s consent for an extension beyond sixty (60) days.
If this Bond is issued in connection with a subcontractor’s bid to a Contractor, the term
Contractor in this Bond shall be deemed to be Subcontractor and the term Owner shall be
deemed to be Contractor.
When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement
in the location of the Project, any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or
legal requirement shall be deemed deleted herefrom and provisions conforming to such
statutory or other legal requirement shall be deemed incorporated herein. When so
furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a
common law bond.

§ 1 The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns to the Owner to pay for labor, materials and equipment furnished for use in the performance of
the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein by reference, subject to the following terms.
§ 2 If the Contractor promptly makes payment of all sums due to Claimants, and defends, indemnifies and holds
harmless the Owner from claims, demands, liens or suits by any person or entity seeking payment for labor, materials
or equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract, then the Surety and the Contractor
shall have no obligation under this Bond.
§ 3 If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety’s obligation to the Owner under this
Bond shall arise after the Owner has promptly notified the Contractor and the Surety (at the address described in
Section 13) of claims, demands, liens or suits against the Owner or the Owner’s property by any person or entity
seeking payment for labor, materials or equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract
and tendered defense of such claims, demands, liens or suits to the Contractor and the Surety.
§ 4 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions in Section 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety’s expense
defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Owner against a duly tendered claim, demand, lien or suit.
§ 5 The Surety’s obligations to a Claimant under this Bond shall arise after the following:
§ 5.1 Claimants, who do not have a direct contract with the Contractor,
.1 have furnished a written notice of non-payment to the Contractor, stating with substantial accuracy the
amount claimed and the name of the party to whom the materials were, or equipment was, furnished or
supplied or for whom the labor was done or performed, within ninety (90) days after having last
performed labor or last furnished materials or equipment included in the Claim; and
.2 have sent a Claim to the Surety (at the address described in Section 13).
§ 5.2 Claimants, who are employed by or have a direct contract with the Contractor, have sent a Claim to the Surety (at
the address described in Section 13).
§ 6 If a notice of non-payment required by Section 5.1.1 is given by the Owner to the Contractor, that is sufficient to
satisfy a Claimant’s obligation to furnish a written notice of non-payment under Section 5.1.1.
§ 7 When a Claimant has satisfied the conditions of Sections 5.1 or 5.2, whichever is applicable, the Surety shall
promptly and at the Surety’s expense take the following actions:
§ 7.1 Send an answer to the Claimant, with a copy to the Owner, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Claim,
stating the amounts that are undisputed and the basis for challenging any amounts that are disputed; and
§ 7.2 Pay or arrange for payment of any undisputed amounts.
§ 7.3 The Surety’s failure to discharge its obligations under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 shall not be deemed to
constitute a waiver of defenses the Surety or Contractor may have or acquire as to a Claim, except as to undisputed
amounts for which the Surety and Claimant have reached agreement. If, however, the Surety fails to discharge its
obligations under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, the Surety shall indemnify the Claimant for the reasonable attorney’s fees
the Claimant incurs thereafter to recover any sums found to be due and owing to the Claimant.
§ 8 The Surety’s total obligation shall not exceed the amount of this Bond, plus the amount of reasonable attorney’s
fees provided under Section 7.3, and the amount of this Bond shall be credited for any payments made in good faith by
the Surety.
§ 9 Amounts owed by the Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract shall be used for the performance
of the Construction Contract and to satisfy claims, if any, under any construction performance bond. By the Contractor
furnishing and the Owner accepting this Bond, they agree that all funds earned by the Contractor in the performance of
the Construction Contract are dedicated to satisfy obligations of the Contractor and Surety under this Bond, subject to
the Owner’s priority to use the funds for the completion of the work.

§ 10 The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner, Claimants or others for obligations of the Contractor that are
unrelated to the Construction Contract. The Owner shall not be liable for the payment of any costs or expenses of any
Claimant under this Bond, and shall have under this Bond no obligation to make payments to, or give notice on behalf
of, Claimants or otherwise have any obligations to Claimants under this Bond.
§ 11 The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, including changes of time, to the Construction Contract or to
related subcontracts, purchase orders and other obligations.
§ 12 No suit or action shall be commenced by a Claimant under this Bond other than in a court of competent
jurisdiction in the state in which the project that is the subject of the Construction Contract is located or after the
expiration of one year from the date (1) on which the Claimant sent a Claim to the Surety pursuant to Section 5.1.2 or
5.2, or (2) on which the last labor or service was performed by anyone or the last materials or equipment were
furnished by anyone under the Construction Contract, whichever of (1) or (2) first occurs. If the provisions of this
Paragraph are void or prohibited by law, the minimum period of limitation available to sureties as a defense in the
jurisdiction of the suit shall be applicable.
§ 13 Notice and Claims to the Surety, the Owner or the Contractor shall be mailed or delivered to the address shown
on the page on which their signature appears. Actual receipt of notice or Claims, however accomplished, shall be
sufficient compliance as of the date received.
§ 14 When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement in the location where
the construction was to be performed, any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or legal requirement
shall be deemed deleted herefrom and provisions conforming to such statutory or other legal requirement shall be
deemed incorporated herein. When so furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and
not as a common law bond.

Owner shall promptly furnish a copy of this Bond or shall permit a copy to be made.

telephone service or rental equipment used in the Construction Contract, architectural and engineering services
required for performance of the work of the Contractor and the Contractor’s subcontractors, and all other items for
which a mechanic's lien may be asserted in the jurisdiction where the labor, materials or equipment were furnished.

§ 1 The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns to the Owner for the performance of the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein by
reference.
§ 2 If the Contractor performs the Construction Contract, the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation under
this Bond, except when applicable to participate in a conference as provided in Section 3.
§ 3 If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety’s obligation under this Bond shall arise
after
.1 the Owner first provides notice to the Contractor and the Surety that the Owner is considering declaring
a Contractor Default. Such notice shall indicate whether the Owner is requesting a conference among
the Owner, Contractor and Surety to discuss the Contractor’s performance. If the Owner does not
request a conference, the Surety may, within five (5) business days after receipt of the Owner’s notice,
request such a conference. If the Surety timely requests a conference, the Owner shall attend. Unless
the Owner agrees otherwise, any conference requested under this Section 3.1 shall be held within ten
(10) business days of the Surety’s receipt of the Owner’s notice. If the Owner, the Contractor and the
Surety agree, the Contractor shall be allowed a reasonable time to perform the Construction Contract,
but such an agreement shall not waive the Owner’s right, if any, subsequently to declare a Contractor
Default;
.2 the Owner declares a Contractor Default, terminates the Construction Contract and notifies the Surety;
and
.3 the Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract Price in accordance with the terms of the
Construction Contract to the Surety or to a contractor selected to perform the Construction Contract.
§ 4 Failure on the part of the Owner to comply with the notice requirement in Section 3.1 shall not constitute a failure
to comply with a condition precedent to the Surety’s obligations, or release the Surety from its obligations, except to
the extent the Surety demonstrates actual prejudice.
§ 5 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Section 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety’s expense
take one of the following actions:
§ 5.1 Arrange for the Contractor, with the consent of the Owner, to perform and complete the Construction Contract;
§ 5.2 Undertake to perform and complete the Construction Contract itself, through its agents or independent
contractors;
§ 5.3 Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from qualified contractors acceptable to the Owner for a contract for

§ 15.3.3 Either party may, within 30 days from the date that mediation has been concluded without resolution of the
dispute or 60 days after mediation has been demanded without resolution of the dispute, demand in writing that the
other party file for binding dispute resolution. If such a demand is made and the party receiving the demand fails to
file for binding dispute resolution within 60 days after receipt thereof, then both parties waive their rights to binding
dispute resolution proceedings with respect to the initial decision. § 15.3.4 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.
§ 15.4 Arbitration § 15.4.1 If the parties have selected arbitration as the method for binding dispute resolution in the Agreement, any
Claim subject to, but not resolved by, mediation shall be subject to arbitration which, unless the parties mutually agree
otherwise, shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Construction Industry
Arbitration Rules in effect on the date of the Agreement. The Arbitration shall be conducted in the place where the
Project is located, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. A demand for arbitration shall be made in writing,
delivered to the other party to the Contract, and filed with the person or entity administering the arbitration. 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.
§ 15.4.1.1 A demand for arbitration shall be made no earlier than concurrently with the filing of a request for
mediation, but in no event shall it be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on
the Claim would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations. For statute of limitations purposes, receipt of a
written demand for arbitration by the person or entity administering the arbitration shall constitute the institution of
legal or equitable proceedings based on the Claim.
§ 15.4.2 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.
§ 15.4.3 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.
§ 15.4.4 Consolidation or Joinder § 15.4.4.1 Subject to the rules of the American Arbitration Association or other applicable arbitration rules, either
party may consolidate an arbitration conducted under this Agreement with any other arbitration to which it is a party
provided that (1) the arbitration agreement governing the other arbitration permits consolidation, (2) the arbitrations to
be consolidated substantially involve common questions of law or fact, and (3) the arbitrations employ materially
similar procedural rules and methods for selecting arbitrator(s).
§ 15.4.4.2 Subject to the rules of the American Arbitration Association or other applicable arbitration rules, either
party may include by joinder persons or entities substantially involved in a common question of law or fact whose
presence is required if complete relief is to be accorded in arbitration, provided that the party sought to be joined
consents in writing to such joinder. Consent to arbitration involving an additional person or entity shall not constitute
consent to arbitration of any claim, dispute or other matter in question not described in the written consent.
§ 15.4.4.3 The Owner and Contractor grant to any person or entity made a party to an arbitration conducted under this
Section 15.4, whether by joinder or consolidation, the same rights of joinder and consolidation as those of the Owner
and Contractor under this Agreement.
