Contractor is entitled to a time extension of the Contract Time for each day the Work is delayed due to Excusable Delay. Contractor shall document its claim for any time extension as provided in Article 40 hereof. Failure of Contractor to comply with Article 40 hereof as to any particular event of delay shall be deemed conclusively to constitute a waiver, abandonment or relinquishment of any and all claims resulting from that particular event of delay. Excusable Delay may be compensable or non -compensable: (a) Compensable Excusable Delay. Excusable Delay is compensable when (i) the delay extends the Contract Time, (ii) is caused by circumstances beyond the control of the Contractor or its subcontractors, suppliers or vendors, and (iii) is caused solely by fraud, bad faith or active interference on the part of City or its agents. In no event shall Contractor be compensated for interim delays which do not extend the Contract Time. Contractor shall be entitled to direct and indirect costs for Compensable Excusable Delay. Direct costs recoverable by Contractor shall be' limited to the actual additional costs allowed pursuant to Article 41 hereof. City and Contractor recognize and agree that the amount of Contractor's precise actual indirect costs for delay in the performance and completion of the Work is impossible to determine as of the date of execution of the Contract Documents, and that proof of the precise amount will be difficult. Therefore, indirect costs recoverable by the Contractor shall be liquidated on a daily basis for each day the Contract Time is delayed due to a Compensable Excusable Delay. These liquidated indirect costs shall be paid to compensate Contractor for all indirect costs caused by a Compensable Excusable Delay and shall include, but not be limited to, all profit on indirect costs, home office overhead, acceleration, loss of earnings, loss of productivity, loss of bonding capacity, loss of opportunity and all other indirect costs incurred by Contractor. The amount of liquidated indirect costs recoverable shall be one hundred dollars ($100) per day for each calendar day the Contract is delayed due to a Compensable Excusable Delay. (b) Non -Compensable Excusable Delay. When Excusable Delay is (i) caused by circumstances beyond the control of Contractor, its subcontractors, suppliers and vendors, and is also caused by circumstances beyond the control of the City or Consultant, or (ii) is caused jointly or concurrently by Contractor or its subcontractors, suppliers or vendors and by the City or Consultant, then Contractor shall be entitled only to a time extension and no further compensation for the delay. 43. Substantial Completion: When Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof designated by City pursuant to Article 30 hereof, has reached Substantial Completion, Contractor shall so notify City and Consultant in writing. Consultant and City shall then promptly inspect the Work.
