§ 3.4.2 Compensation.
7 The GMP of this Agreement, and the maximum total compensation that shall be due and payable to Contractor for complete performance of the services and construction work provided for in this Agreement, during the construction phases, and completion of the Project from commencement through opening as required hereunder (the “Work”), shall not exceed Forty Five Million Four Hundred Twelve Thousand Five Hundred Nineteen ($45,412,519) (“Compensation”), which Compensation is comprised of Contractor’s GMP for the Project in the amount of $_($45,412,519______________, as further detailed in Exhibit “D” to this Agreement (“GMP”), plus a 6% (six percent) Contractor’s markup (or fee) on Contractor’s GMAX Bid totaling $_2,343,059________ (“Contractor Fee”).

§ 3.4.3 Accuracy of GMAX Bid Proposal.
Contractor represents that the GMP and estimated costs to complete the Project reflect the best professional estimate of actual costs anticipated. The Compensation is the maximum price that the Owner, Tenant and the Contractor agree upon as payment for providing all the Work and completing the Project in accordance with the Contract Documents, and is the complete and total sum that shall be payable by the Owner and Tenant for any and all costs, direct or indirect, of the Contractor for provision of the Work and construction of the Project pursuant the Contract Documents. Compensation for the Contractor’s provisions of any services or Work in advance of this Agreement or the Notice to Proceed is also included in the GMP. § 3.4.4 Considerations of Contractor’s GMP.
The GMP is the sum of the Contractor’s estimate of the Cost of the Work, including contingencies and the Contractor’s Fee. The GMP in Exhibit “D” includes a written statement of its basis, including the following:
.1 A list of the Plans and Specifications, the Contract Documents and the General Conditions; .2 A list of the clarifications and assumptions made by the Contractor in the preparation of the GMP, including assumptions to supplement the information provided by the Owner or Tenant and contained in the Plans and Specifications;
.3 A statement of the GMP, including a statement of the estimated cost of the Work organized by trade categories or systems, allowances, contingency, and the Contractor’s Fee; .4 The anticipated date of Substantial Completion upon which the GMP is based; and .5 Contractors certification that the pricing and costs contained in the proposed GMP are accurate, complete, and current.
.6 The GMP includes a mutually agreed amount for a construction contingency for the Contractor’s exclusive use to cover those costs not otherwise reimbursable as the Cost of the Work and not included in a Change Order, provided, however, such contingency shall not be used to fund costs resulting from the Contractor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, non-performance under this contract or costs resulting from Owner directed Changes. No part of the contingency shall be used by the Contractor without first submitting to the Owner a written request for a specific amount and justification for its use, and without receiving the Owner’s prior written approval, and Tenant’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Contractor agrees to use diligent efforts, including litigation at Contractor’s sole discretion, to pursue recoveries from insurance, Subcontractors or other third parties as applicable, but shall not be required to wait for recovery prior to receiving contingency monies; provided, however, monies recovered by Contractor shall be promptly returned to Owner. The contingency is for the sole and exclusive use of the Contractor and is not for use by the Owner for reasons including scope increases, concealed conditions, 8 design clarifications or design deficiencies not reasonably inferable from Construction Documents, nor is the Contingency to be used to address any matter for which Contractor is entitled to an adjustment or Change Order.
§ 3.4.5 Payment Adjustments for Cost Changes.
.1 Direct Costs Less Than GMAX Bid. In the event Contractor’s costs of performing the Work are less than the GMP (“Savings”), then Contractor shall be entitled to receive thirty percent (30%) of such Savings; which shall be added to the Contractor Fee. The purpose of Owner’s sharing of Savings with Contractor is to incentivize Contractor to provide the Work in a cost-effective manner. .2 Direct Costs More Than GMP. In the event that Contractor’s costs of performing the Work are more than the GMP, Contractor shall be responsible for any and all cost overruns unless the GMP established by this Agreement is increased via a formal Change Order. In either event the dollar amount paid for the Contractor Fee shall remain unchanged.
§ 3.5 Performance Schedule
The schedule applicable to Contractor’s provision of the Work under this Agreement is provided in Exhibit “C” attached and incorporated herein as the “Project Schedule.” Contractor represents and warrants that it shall provide the Work and complete the Project for opening within the time required by the Project Schedule.
§ 3.5.1 Timely Performance; Liquidated Damages.
Owner, Tenant and Contractor acknowledge and agree that if Contractor fails to fully and satisfactorily complete the Work within the Project Schedule, Owner and Tenant will suffer, as a result of Contractor’s failure, substantial damages which are both extremely difficult and impracticable to ascertain. Such damages may include, but are not limited to: (i) Loss of public confidence in Owner, Tenant and their contractors and consultants, (ii) Loss of public use of public and private facilities, (iii) Extended disruption to public. (iv) Claims for damages from private citizens. and (v) loss of revenue earmarked to finance the cost of improvements. Owner, Tenant and Contractor have reasonably endeavored, but failed, to ascertain the precise amount of to the actual damage that Owner or Tenant will incur if Contractor fails to achieve Substantial Completion of the entire Work within the Project Schedule. Therefore, the parties agree that in addition to all other damages to which Owner or Tenant may be entitled other than delay damages, in the event Contractor shall fail to achieve Substantial Completion of the entire Work within the Project Schedule, Contractor shall pay Owner as liquidated damages the amount of $1000.00 per day for each day between the date for Substantial Completion of the Work set forth in the Project Schedule (which is 365 calendar days after issuance of the Notice to Proceed, subject to extensions of the Contract Time as permitted under Section 3.6.4 below), and the date Contractor achieves Substantial Completion of the entire Work. The liquidated damages amount is not a penalty but considered to be a reasonable estimate of the amount of damages Owner and Tenant will suffer. Such liquidated damages shall be subject to apportionment for delays to Substantial Completion for which Contractor is entitled to receive an extension of time under the Contract Documents. Such apportionment shall not be affected by the fact that liquidated damages may not be capable of apportionment for other periods of time during which there have occurred delays concurrently caused by both Owner or Tenant and Contractor. It being the Contractor’s obligation to have the entire Work Substantially Completed within the Project Schedule, it is agreed that such liquidated damages shall not be apportioned for portions of the Work completed prior to expiration of the Contract Time. Tenant and Owner agree that any liquiated damages paid under this section shall be allocated as required in the Sublease.
Owner’s Initials ______ Contractor’s Initials ______ Tenant’s Initials _____ 9 § 3.6 Changes in the Work
§ 3.6.1 Changes.
At any time during the progress of the Project, Owner,with the written consent of Tenant,may order modifications, alterations, or deviations in the Work or may order additional work or direct the omission of Work shown in the Contract Documents (an “Owner Change” or a “Change”). If Owner should order an Owner Change, such action shall in no way invalidate the Contract Documents nor shall Owner be required to give notice to any surety or sureties on any bond or bonds required of Contractor. If during the progress of the Project, (a) Contractor encounters concealed hazardous conditions, subsurface conditions, or other unforeseeable condition that is not referenced or described, and not determinable or foreseeable in the geotechnical studies for the Project or the Contract Documents, (b) the Owner mandates unforeseeable conditions or changes to the Work that are not otherwise required for compliance with Applicable Law, or (c) other events occur for which Contractor is entitled to a Change order under the Contract Documents, then Contractor may request a Change to the Work shown in the Contract Documents in (a “Contractor Change” or a “Change”). Owner shall consult with and obtain Tenant’s written consent before initiating an Owner Change or before agreeing to a Contractor Change. § 3.6.2 Impact of Change.
If Owner, with the written consent of Tenant, requests an Owner Change or Contractor requests a Contractor Change, Contractor shall provide to Owner and Tenant, within a reasonable time not to exceed fourteen (14) days, a written estimate of the cost of such Change and estimated time to incorporate it into the Work and the impact, if any, upon the GMP and/or the Project Schedule, all of which Owner may approve or disapprove in its reasonable discretion and written concurrence of Tenant. The Contractor’s written estimate shall include back-up documentation detailing the cost and time to incorporate such Change into the Work.
Upon mutual agreement with respect to a Change, a change order shall be processed by Contractor and delivered to Owner for execution (once approved and executed by Owner, and the written consent of Tenant, a “Change Order”). The provisions of the Contract Documents shall apply to all Change Orders with the same effect as if the Change Orders were embodied in the original Contract Documents.
Disagreements with respect to a Change Order are to be resolved pursuant to the Claims and Disputes section in Article 15 of the General Conditions.
§ 3.6.3 Adjustment of Guaranteed Maximum Price.
.1 Any portion of the Cost of the Work which is not called for by the original Contract Documents and which is authorized by Change Orders, shall include a mark-up above Contractor’s actual cost for such work. Wherever it is indicated that Contractor is entitled to a mark-up, Contractor has agreed that the mark-up for additive Work is fixed at six percent (6%) and the mark-up for deductive work is fixed at six percent (6%) (“Mark-Up”). Contractor’s Mark-Up percentage is expressly all-inclusive of any and all of Contractor’s costs; provided, however, that if such Change Order requires an extension of the Construction Schedule, then Contractor also shall be entitled to the resulting change in cost for general conditions calculated based on the applicable wage rates. For the purposes of this paragraph, “actual cost” is defined as the Contractor’s or Subcontractor’s actual out-of-pocket expense as evidenced by purchase receipts, payroll records, time-cards and or other such information satisfactory to Owner. .2 It is understood and agreed that refinement and detailing may be accomplished from time to time with respect to the construction drawings and specifications. No adjustment in the GMP or the deadline for Substantial Completion of the Project shall be made on account of refinement or detailing that does not involve material changes in the scope, quality, function and/or intent of the drawings and specifications.
10 .3 If Owner and Tenant, on the one hand, and Contractor on the other, cannot agree upon the cost of a Change otherwise approved by Owner and consented to by Tenant, Contractor shall proceed with the performance of the additional Work required under a construction change directive (“Construction Change Directive”) promptly upon receipt of written notice from Owner. The cost or credit with respect to such Construction Change Directive shall be determined based on the reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the Change. In such case, Contractor shall keep and present an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data of all costs and time required to perform the Work required by the Construction Change Directive. In the event of any dispute with respect to the method of determining the cost or credit of a Construction Change Directive as set forth in this subparagraph, Owner, Tenant, and Contractor shall work together to resolve such dispute in good faith, and in accordance with any dispute resolution procedures that may be established in the Contract Documents. Pending resolution of such dispute, the Contractor shall perform the Work required by the Construction Change Directive at the cost determined by the Owner and Tenant, subject to a reservation of rights by Contractor. Owner shall consult with Tenant regarding any such resolution. § 3.6.4 Extension of Time.
The time allowed by this Agreement under Project Schedule to complete the Project shall be extended or reduced only by the amount of time increases or decreases as expressly approved by Owner and consented to by Tenant with respect to Changes or Change Orders, and the Project Schedule shall be changed accordingly.
§ 3.6.5 Written Orders Only
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 3 to the contrary, Contractor shall not be entitled to any additional compensation for making the Changes, or to any extensions of time for completing the Project or Work unless the Changes were ordered by a written Change Order, written notice of Construction Change Directive or amendment to this Construction Contract, all signed by Owner and consented to by Tenant in advance, stating that the work qualifies for a Change Order and expressly approving any amount of additional compensation and/or any extension of time for completion of the Project. Any Work performed by Contractor without prior approval of Owner and consent of Tenant will not entitle Contractor to an increase in GMP or an extension of the Project Schedule. § 3.7 Discounts, Rebates and Refunds
Cash discounts obtained on payments made by the Contractor shall accrue to the Owner if (1) before making the payment, the Contractor included them in a request for payment and received payment from the Owner, or (2) the Owner has deposited funds with the Contractor with which to make payments; otherwise, cash discounts shall accrue to the Contractor. Trade discounts, rebates, refunds and amounts received from sales of surplus materials and equipment shall accrue to the Owner, and the Contractor shall make provisions so that they can be obtained. Amounts that accrue to the Owner in accordance with the provisions of this section shall be credited to the Owner as a deduction from the Cost of the Work. § 3.8 Accounting Records; Audit
The Contractor shall keep full and detailed records and accounts related to the cost of the Work and exercise such controls as may be necessary for proper financial management under this Contract and to substantiate all costs incurred. The accounting and control systems shall be satisfactory to the Owner.

§ 4.2.4 Requests for payment shall show the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the Payment Application. The percentage of completion shall be the lesser of (1) the percentage of that portion of the Work which has actually been completed, or (2) the percentage 12 obtained by dividing (a) the expense that has actually been incurred by the Contractor on account of that portion of the Work for which the Contractor has made or intends to make actual payment prior to the next request for payment by (b) the share of the GMP allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values.
§ 4.2.5 Subject to other provisions of the Contract Documents, the amount of each progress payment shall be computed as follows:
.1 Take that portion of the GMP properly allocable to completed Work as determined by multiplying the percentage of completion of each portion of the Work by the share of the GMP allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values.
.2 Add that portion of the GMP properly allocable to materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work, or if approved in advance by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing; .3 Add the Contractor’s Fee, less retainage of 5% (Five Percent). The Contractor’s Fee shall be computed upon the Cost of the Work;
.4 Subtract retainage of 5% (Five Percent) from that portion of the Work that the Contractor self- performs;

A copy of the updated as-built prints and as-built specifications shall be made available to the Owner and Tenant with the monthly progress payment requests.
.3 Contractor progress payment will be contingent upon the as-built Plans and specifications being maintained in current status, and the Owner will not approve progress payments unless these as-built Plans and specifications are current.
.4 As a condition to certifying the final payment under this Contract, within 30 calendar days after substantial completion, the Contractor will submit to the Owner, with a copy to Tenant, the original set of as-built prints as well as the set of as-built specifications.

.3 The Contractor shall not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The Contractor certifies and agrees that all persons employed by such firm, Contractor's affiliates, subsidiaries, or holding companies are, and will be, treated equally by the firm without regard to or because of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin and in compliance with all anti-discrimination laws of the United States of America and the State of California. .4 In all advertisements for labor or other personnel, or requests for employment of any nature, the Contractor shall state that all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. .5 The Contractor shall deal with Contractor's Subcontractors without regard to or because of race, color, religion, sex or national origin.

While the City reserves the right to determine independently that the anti-discrimination provisions of the Contract have been violated, in addition, a determination by the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the California Fair Employment and Housing Commission that the Contractor has violated federal or state anti-discrimination laws may constitute a finding by the City that the Contractor has violated the anti-discrimination provisions of the Contract. .10 At City's option, and in lieu of canceling, terminating, or suspending the Contract, the City may impose damages for any violation of the anti-discrimination provisions of this paragraph, in the amount of two hundred dollars ($200) for each violation found and determined. The City and Contractor specifically agree that the aforesaid amount shall be imposed as liquidated damages, and not as a forfeiture or penalty. It is further specifically agreed that the aforesaid amount is presumed to be the amount of damages sustained by reason of any such violation, because, from the circumstances and the nature of the violation, it is impracticable and extremely difficult to fix actual damages. .11 The Contractor shall include the provisions of the foregoing Paragraphs 1. through 8 in every subcontract, so that such provisions will be binding upon each Subcontractor performing Work required by this contract.

The Contractor shall be responsible for the submission of copies of payrolls for all subcontractors within ten (10) days after their payroll period. Failure of the Contractor to comply with the Labor Code requirements to pay prevailing wages and to maintain certified payroll records may result in withholding from progress payments amounts for underpaid wages and penalties as authorized by the Labor Code. .2 When requested by the City, the Contractor, all subcontractors, and some subconsultants will be required to submit certain certified payrolls and labor compliance documentation electronically at the discretion of, and in the manner specified by the City. .3 Electronic submittal will be a web-based system, accessed on the World Wide Web by a web browser.

However, the issuance of a Certificate for Payment will not be a representation that the Tenant has (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and other data requested by the Owner to substantiate the Contractor’s right to payment, or (4) 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 Tenant may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in part, to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Owner from losses or Work for which Contractor is responsible under the Contract Documents, if the Tenant’s representations to the Owner required by Section 9.4.2 cannot be made. If the Tenant is unable to so certify payment in the amount of the Application, the Tenant will notify the Contractor and Owner as provided in Section 9.4.1. If the Contractor and Tenant cannot agree on a revised amount, the Tenant will promptly issue a Certificate for Payment for the amount which the Tenant is able to make such representations to the Owner. The Tenant 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 Tenant ’s opinion to protect the Owner from loss or Work 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 following written notice from the Owner or Tenant and a reasonable period of time:
.2 uninsured 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 when due to Subcontractors or for labor, materials or equipment
.4 reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum
.5 uninsured physical damage to the Owner’s property; or
7. repeated failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. § 9.5.2 When any of the above reasons for withholding certification are removed, certification will be made for amounts previously withheld.
§ 9.5.3 If the Tenant 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 material or equipment suppliers 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 Tenant and the Tenant will reflect such payment on the next Certificate for Payment. § 9.6 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
§ 9.6.1 After the Tenant has issued a Certificate for Payment, and the Owner has completed such other inspections or investigations of the Work to verify the accuracy of Contractor’s Payment Application as deemed necessary by Owner, the Owner shall make payment in the manner and within the time provided in the Contract Documents.
§ 9.6.2 The Contractor shall pay each Subcontractor no later than seven (7) days after receipt of payment from the Owner in accordance with the terms of the Subcontract 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 Intentionally omitted.
§ 9.6.4 The Owner and Tenant have the right to request written evidence from the Contractor that the Contractor has properly paid Subcontractors and material and equipment suppliers amounts paid by the Owner or Tenant to the Contractor for subcontracted Work. If the Contractor fails to furnish such evidence within seven days, the Owner and Tenant shall have the right to contact Subcontractors to ascertain whether they have been properly paid. Neither the Owner nor Tenant shall have an obligation to pay or to see to the payment of money to a Subcontractor, except as may otherwise be required by law. § 9.6.5 Contractor payments to material and equipment 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 or Tenant shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents. § 9.6.7 Unless the Contractor provides the Owner with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Contract Sum, payments received by the Contractor for Work properly performed by Subcontractors and suppliers shall be held by the Contractor for those Subcontractors or suppliers who performed Work or furnished materials, or both, under contract with the Contractor for which payment was made by the Owner or Tenant.
Nothing contained herein shall require money to be placed in a separate account and not commingled with money of the Contractor, shall create any fiduciary liability or tort liability on the part of the Contractor for breach of trust or shall entitle any person or entity to an award of punitive damages against the Contractor for breach of the requirements of this provision, or create any rights in favor of Subcontractors or suppliers. § 9.7 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
If the Tenant 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 Tenant or awarded by binding dispute resolution, then the Contractor may, upon seven additional day written notice to the Owner and Tenant, stop the Work until payment of the amount owing has been received. The Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the GMP, shall be increased by the amount of the Contractor’s reasonable costs of shut-down, delay and start-up, plus interest as provided for in the Contract Documents. § 9.8 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
§ 9.8.1 The date of Substantial Completion of the Work, or designated portion thereof as set forth in the Contract Documents, is the date certified by the Owner, and approved in writing by Tenant, when construction is sufficiently complete, in accordance with the Contract Documents, so the Owner or Tenant may occupy or use the Work, or designated portion thereof, for the use for which it is intended. § 9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or designated portion thereof as set forth in the Contract Documents, is substantially complete as defined above, the Contractor shall prepare for submission to the Owner and Tenant a list of items to be completed or corrected. The failure to include any items on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. When the Owner, with written concurrence of the Tenant, determines that the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete, the Owner will issue a Certificate of Substantial Completion which shall establish the date of Substantial Completion. § 9.8.3 The Certificate shall state the responsibilities of the Owner, Tenant, and the Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work, and insurance, and shall list remaining items to be corrected or completed. The Work not fully completed or corrected shall be completed to the satisfaction of the Owner and Tenant within thirty (30) calendar days after Substantial Completion, or within a period of time mutually agreed upon between the Contractor and the Owner and Tenant. In the event the Contractor fails to complete or correct the remaining items within the allotted time, the Owner, with written consent of Tenant, may complete or correct the items and deduct the cost thereof from the Contract amount. § 9.8.4 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portions thereof, and upon application of the Contractor, the Owner, in Owner's sole discretion, may release and/or reduce the amounts retained subject to the limitations of Public Contract Code Section 9203. § 9.8.5 In accordance with the General Conditions, the Owner reserves the right to occupy substantially completed portions of the Work and any such portion shall be subject to the above provisions for Substantial Completion.
§ 9.9 OCCUPANCY BY THE OWNER OR TENANT.
§ 9.9.1 The Contractor, Contractor's employees, and representatives will be admitted by the Owner and Tenant to the premises for the purpose of executing the Work to be performed under this contract, but they shall have no tenancy.
§ 9.9.2 It is further understood that the Owner (or Tenant under the Sublease) shall have the right to take temporary possession of, or use any portion of, any substantially completed part of the Work. Before taking possession of any Work, the Owner and Tenant shall furnish the Contractor a list of items of Work remaining to be performed or corrected on those portions of the Work that the Owner or Tenant intends to take possession of or use. However, a failure of the Owner or Tenant to list any item of Work shall not relieve the Contractor of responsibility for complying with the terms of the Contract. The Owner’s or Tenant’s possession or use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any Work under the Contract. § 9.9.3 While the Owner (or Tenant) has such possession or use, the Contractor shall be relieved of the responsibility for the loss of, or damage to, the Work in place resulting from the Owner or Tenant’s possession or use. If prior possession or use by the Owner or Tenant delays the progress of the Work or causes additional expense to the Contractor, an adjustment may be made in the Contract Amount or the Contract Time, under the applicable scheduling and cost provisions of this Contract. § 9.10 FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
§ 9.10.1 Upon completion of the items on the list provided in accordance with Section 9.8. or, if no list, upon receipt of the Contractor’s written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final Application for Payment, the Tenant and Owner will promptly make such inspection and, when the Tenant and Owner finds the Work required of Contractor under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, the Tenant will promptly issue a final Certificate for Payment stating that to the best of the Tenant’s knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of the Tenant’s on-site visits and inspections, the Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents and that the entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in the final Certificate is due and payable. The Tenant’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 Owner and Tenant (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, or Tenant or the Tenant’s Propety, might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, or will be paid upon final payment by Owner, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance if required by the Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days’ prior written notice has been given to the Owner and Tenant, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5) other data establishing payment or satisfaction of mechanic’s liens filed by Subcontractors or suppliers to Contractor’s obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract and the Work paid for by Owner or Tenant, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the Owner with Tenant’s written consent. If a Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Contractor may furnish a bond satisfactory to the Owner and Tenant to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Owner and Tenant against such lien and any related costs including without limitation attorneys’ fees and court costs, in exchange for which the Owner or Tenant shall make final payment, or, if no such bond is provided and subject to applicable laws, Owner or Tenant may withhold the final certification or payment to the applicable Subcontractor or supplier until such lien is no longer a viable encumbrance. If such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to the Owner or Tenant all money that the Owner or Tenant may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees. § 9.10.3 If, after Substantial Completion of the Work, final completion thereof is materially delayed through no fault of the Contractor or by issuance of Change Orders affecting final completion, and the Tenant so confirms, the Owner shall, upon application by the Contractor and certification by the Tenant, and without terminating the Contract, make payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than retainage stipulated in the Contract Documents, and if bonds have been furnished, the written consent of surety to payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by the Contractor to the Tenant 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 then unknown to the Owner; or
.3 terms of special warranties required by the Contract Documents. § 9.10.5 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment and any amount withheld. §9.10.6 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES
§ 9.10.6.1 Intentionally deleted.
§_9.10.6.3_Not a Waiver: The liquidated damages described in the Contract Documents are intended to compensate the Owner and Tenant for damages associated with the failure of the Contractor to timely complete the Work within the applicable Contract Times. The foregoing liquidated damages provision shall not constitute a waiver by the Owner or Tenant of any rights and remedies under the Contract Documents, or at law or in equity, that the Owner or Tenant may have for the Contractor’s failure to comply with any of its obligations under the Contract Documents other than the obligation to timely complete the Work.

A waiver of subrogation shall be effective as to a person or entity even though that person or entity would otherwise have a duty of indemnification, contractual or otherwise, did not pay the insurance premium directly or indirectly, and whether or not the person or entity had an insurable interest in the property damaged. § 11.4 [INTENTIONALLY DELETED].
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 Owner’s request or to requirements specifically expressed in the Contract Documents, it must, if requested in writing by the Owner, be uncovered for the Owner’s examination and be replaced Contractor’s expense without change in the Contract Time or GMP. § 12.1.2 If a portion of the Work has been covered that the Owner has not specifically requested to examine prior to its being covered, the Owner may request to see such Work and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If such Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, costs of uncovering and replacement shall, by appropriate Change Order, be at the Owner’s expense. If such Work is not in accordance with the Contract Documents, such costs and the cost of correction shall be Contractor’s expense without adjustment to the GMP unless the condition was caused by the Owner or a separate contractor in which event the Owner shall be responsible for payment of such costs and the parties may increase the GMP and/or extend the Contract Time.
§ 12.2 CORRECTION OF WORK
§ 12.2.1 BEFORE OR AFTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
The Contractor shall promptly correct Work properly rejected by the Ownerfor failing to conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents, whether discovered before or after 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 professional design 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, any of the Work is found to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from the Owner or Tenant to do so unless the Owner or Tenant has previously given the Contractor a written acceptance of such condition. The Owner or Tenant 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 and Tenant waive 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 2.4. § 12.2.2.2 The one-year period for correction of Work shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and the actual 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, whether completed or partially completed, of the Owner, Tenant, or separate contractors 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 with Tenant’s consent instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the GMP will be reduced as appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.

.3 The Owner has failed to furnish to the Contractor promptly, upon the Contractor’s request, reasonable evidence as required by Section 2.2.1
§ 14.1.2 The Contractor may terminate the Contract if, through no act or fault of the Contractor or a Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor or their agents or employees or any other persons or entities performing portions of the Work under direct or indirect contract with the Contractor, repeated suspensions, delays or interruptions of the entire Work by the Owner as described in Section 14.3 or for which Contractor is entitled to an extension of time constitute in the aggregate more than 100 percent of the total number of days scheduled for completion, or 120 days in any 365-day period, whichever is less. § 14.1.3 If one of the reasons described in Section 14.1.1 or 14.1.2 exists, the Contractor may, upon seven days’ written notice to the Owner and Tenant, terminate the Contract and recover from the Owner payment for Work executed, including reasonable overhead and profit, costs incurred by reason of such termination, and damages.
§ 14.1.4 If the Work is stopped for a period of 60 consecutive days through no act or fault of the Contractor or a Subcontractor or their agents or employees or any other persons performing portions of the Work under contract with the Contractor because the Owner has 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’ written notice to the Owner and the Tenant, terminate the Contract and recover from the Owner as provided in Section 14.1.3.

§ 15.1 CLAIMS
§ 15.1.1 DEFINITION
A Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, payment of money, or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract.

The responsibility to substantiate Claims shall rest with the party making the Claim. § 15.1.2 NOTICE OF CLAIMS
Claims by either the Owner, Tenant or Contractor must be initiated by written notice to the other party and to the Initial Decision Maker with a copy sent to the Tenant. Claims by either party must be initiated within 21 days after occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first recognizes the condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later. § 15.1.3 CONTINUING CONTRACT PERFORMANCE
Pending final resolution of a Claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing or as provided in Section 9.7 and Article 14, the Contractor shall proceed diligently with performance of the Contract and the Owner shall continue to make payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.

§ 15.2 INITIAL DECISION
§ 15.2.1 Claims, excluding those arising under Sections 10.3, 10.4, 11.3.9, and 11.3.10, shall be referred to the Initial Decision Maker for initial decision. The City Engineer will serve as the Initial Decision Maker, unless otherwise indicated in the Agreement. Except for those Claims excluded by this Section 15.2.1, an initial decision shall be required as a condition precedent to mediation of any Claim arising prior to the date final payment is due, unless 30 days have passed after the Claim has been referred to the Initial Decision Maker with no decision having been rendered. Unless the Initial Decision Maker 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 the appropriate resolution 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 such 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 or otherwise resolve the Claim. § 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 Tenant 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 within 30 days from the date of an 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 15.1.6 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.
§ 15.3.3 The parties shall share the mediator’s fee and any filing fees equally. The mediation shall be held in the place where the Project is located, unless another location is mutually agreed upon. Agreements reached in mediation shall be enforceable as settlement agreements in any court having jurisdiction thereof. § 15.4 ARBITRATION
§ 15.4. Arbitration shall be utilized 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. 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 Either party, at its sole discretion, 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 Either party, at its sole discretion, 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, Tenant 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 the Owner and Contractor under this Agreement. § 15.4.4.4 Arbitration, at the Contractor’s election and sole cost, and without additional cost to Owner, may include Subcontractors to Contractor that Contractor deems relevant to the matter in dispute and, upon Contractor’s request, the Arbitrator shall decide all or a particular portion of a dispute between the Contractor and a Subcontractor.
