whose business address is
and (if applicable) its Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN) is
(If the entity has no FEIN, include the Social Security Number of the individual signing this sworn
statement: )
2. I understand that a "public entity crime" as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(g), Florida Statutes, means a
violation of any state or federal law by a person with respect to and directly related to the transaction of
business with any public entity or with an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United
States, including, but not limited to, any bid or contract for goods or services to be provided to any public
entity or an agency or political subdivision of any other state or of the United States and involving
antitrust, fraud, theft, bribery, collusion, racketeering, conspiracy, or material misrepresentation.
3. I understand that "convicted" or "conviction" as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(b), Florida Statues,
means a finding of guilt or a conviction of a public entity crime, with or without an adjudication of guilt, in
any federal or state trial court of record relating to charges brought by indictment or information after July
1, 1989, as a result of a jury verdict, nonjury trial, or entry of a plea of guilty or nolo contendere.
4. I understand that an affiliate as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(a), Florida Statutes, means:

has been convicted of a public entity crime. The term "affiliate" includes those officers, directors,

an affiliate. The ownership by one person of shares constituting a controlling interest in another person, or
a pooling of equipment or income among persons when not for fair market value under an arm's length

enters into a joint venture with a person who has been convicted of a public entity crime in Florida during
the preceding 36 months shall be considered an affiliate.
5. I understand that a "person" as defined in Paragraph 287.133(1)(e), Florida Statutes, means any natural

1. The Contractor and the 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 to participate in
conferences as provided in Subparagraph 3.1.
3. If there is no Owner Default, the Surety's obligation under this Bond shall
arise after:
3.1. The Owner has notified the Contractor and the Surety at its
address described in Paragraph 10 below, that the Owner is
considering declaring a Contractor Default and has requested and
attempted to arrange a conference with the Contractor and the
Surety to be held not later than fifteen days after receipt of such
notice to discuss methods of performing the Construction
Contract. 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: and
3.2. The Owner has declared a Contractor Default and formally
terminated the Contractor's right to complete the contract. Such
Contractor Default shall not be declared earlier than twenty days
after the Contractor and the Surety have received notice as
provided in Subparagraph 3.1: and
3.3. The Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract Price to
the Surety in accordance with the terms of the Construction
Contract or to a contractor selected to perform the Construction
Contract in accordance with the terms of the contract with the
Owner.
4. When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Paragraph 3, the Surety
shall promptly and at the Surety's expense take one of the following actions:
4.1. Arrange for the Contractor, with consent of the Owner, to
perform and complete the Construction Contract: or
4.2. Undertake to perform and complete the Construction Contract
itself, through its agents or through independent contractors: or
4.3. Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from qualified contractors
acceptable to the Owner for a contract for performance and
completion of the Construction Contract, arrange for a contract to
be prepared for execution by the Owner and the contractor
selected with the Owner's concurrence, to be secured with
performance and payment bonds executed by a qualified surety
equivalent to the bonds issued on the Construction Contract, and
pay to the Owner the amount of damages as described in
Paragraph 6 in excess of the Balance of the Contract Price
incurred by the Owner resulting from the Contractor's default:
or
4.4. Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange for completion,
or obtain a new contractor and with reasonable promptness under
the circumstances:
1. After investigation, determine the amount for which it may
be liable to the Owner and, as soon as practicable after the
amount is determined, tender payment therefor to the
Owner: or
2. Deny liability in whole or in part and notify the Owner
citing reasons therefor.
5. If the Surety does not proceed as provided in Paragraph 4 with reasonable
promptness, the Surety shall be deemed to be in default on this Bond fifteen
days after receipt of an additional written notice from the Owner to the Surety
demanding that the Surety perform its obligations under this Bond, and the
Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner. If the
Surety proceeds as provided in Subparagraph 4.4, and the Owner refuses the
payment tendered or the Surety has denied liability, in whole or in part,
without further notice the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy
available to the Owner.
6. After the Owner has terminated the Contractor's right to complete the
Construction Contract, and if the Surety elects to act under Subparagraph 4. 1,
4.2, or 4.3 above, then the responsibilities of the Surety to the Owner shall not
be greater than those of the Contractor under the Construction Contract, and
the responsibilities of the Owner to the Surety shall not be greater than those of
the Owner under the Construction Contract. To the limit of the amount of this
Bond, but subject to commitment by the Owner of the Balance of the Contract
Price to mitigation of costs and damages on the Construction Contract, the
Surety is obligated without duplication for:
6.1. The responsibilities of the Contractor for correction of defective
work and completion of the Construction Contract:
6.2. Additional legal, design professional and delay costs resulting
from the Contractor's Default, and resulting from the actions or
failure to act of the Surety under Paragraph 4: and
6.3. Liquidated damages, or if no liquidated damages are specified in
the Construction Contract, actual damages caused by delayed
performance or non - performance of the Contractor.
7. The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner or others for obligations of the
Contractor that are unrelated to the Construction Contract, and the Balance of
the Contract Price shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such
unrelated obligations. No right of action shall accrue on this Bond to any
person or entity other than the Owner or its heirs, executors, administrators, or
successors.
8. 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.
9. Any proceeding, legal or equitable, under this Bond may be instituted in
any court of competent jurisdiction in the location in which the work or part of
the work is located and shall be instituted within two years after Contractor
Default or within two years after the Contractor ceased working or within two
years after the Surety refuses or fails to perform its obligations under this
Bond, whichever occurs first. If the provisions of limitation available to
sureties as a defense in the jurisdiction of the suit shall be applicable.
10. Notice to the Surety, the Owner or the Contractor shall be mailed or
delivered to the address shown on the signature page.
11. 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. The intent is
that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a common law
bond.
12. Definitions.
12.1. Balance of the Contract Price: The total amount payable by the
Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract after all
proper adjustments have been made, including allowance to the
Contractor of any amounts received or to be received by the
Owner in settlement of insurance or other claims for damages to
which the Contractor is entitled, reduced by all valid and proper
payments made to or on behalf of the Contractor under the
Construction Contract.
12.2. Construction Contract: The agreement between the Owner and
the Contractor identified on the signature page, including all
Contract Documents and changes thereto.
12.3. Contractor Default: Failure of the Contractor, which has neither
been remedied nor waived, to perform or otherwise to comply
with the terms of the Construction Contract.
12.4. Owner Default: Failure of the Owner, which has neither been
remedied nor waived, to pay the Contractor as required by the
Construction Contract or to perform and complete or comply with

relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at or
contiguous to the Site (except Underground Facilities) that
ENGINEER has used in preparing the Contract
Documents.
B. Limited Reliance by CONTRACTOR on Technical
Data Authorized: CONTRACTOR may rely upon the
general accuracy of the "technical data" contained in such
reports and drawings, but such reports and drawings are not
Contract Documents. Such "technical data" is identified in
the Supplementary Conditions. Except for such reliance on
such "technical data," CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or
make any Claim against OWNER, ENGINEER, or any of
ENGINEER's Consultants with respect to:
1. the completeness of such reports and drawings
for CONTRACTOR's purposes, including, but not
limited to, any aspects of the means, methods,
techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction to
be employed by CONTRACTOR, and safety precautions
and programs incident thereto; or
2. other data, interpretations, opinions, and
informati on contained in such reports or shown or
indicated in such drawings; or
3. any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or
conclusion drawn from any 'technical data" or any such
other data, interpretations, opinions, or information.
4.03 Differing Subsurface or Physical Conditions
A. Notice: If CONTRACTOR believes that any subsur-
face or physical condition at or contiguous to the Site that is
uncovered or revealed either:
1. is of such a nature as to establish that any
"technical data" on which CONTRACTOR is entitled to
rely as provided in paragraph 4.02 is materially
inaccurate; or
2. is of such a nature as to require a change in the
Contract Documents; or
3. differs materially from that shown or indicated in
the Contract Documents; or
4. is of an unusual nature, and differs materially
from conditions ordinarily encountered and generally
recognized as inherent in work of the character provided
for in the Contract Documents,
then CONTRACTOR shall, promptly after becoming aware
thereof and before further disturbing the subsurface or
physical conditions or performing any Work in connection
therewith (except in an emergency as required by paragraph
6.16.A), notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writing about
such condition. CONTRACTOR shall not further disturb
such condition or perform any Work in connection therewith
(except as aforesaid) until receipt of written order to do so.
B. ENGINEER's Review: After receipt of written notice
as required by paragraph 4.03.A, ENGINEER will promptly
review the pertinent condition, determine the necessity of
OWNER's obtaining additional exploration or tests with
respect thereto, and advise OWNER in writing (with a copy
to CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER's findings and
conclusions.
00700-12
C. Possible Price and Times Adjustments
1. The Contract Price or the Contract Times, or
both, will be equitably adjusted to the extent that the
existence of such differing subsurface or physical
condition causes an increase or decrease in
CONTRACTOR's cost of, or time required for, perfor-
mance of the Work; subject, however, to the following:
a. such condition must meet any one or m6re of
the categories described in paragraph 4.03.A; and
r b. with respect to Work that is paid for on a
Unit Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract Price
will be subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.08
and 11.03.
2. CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to any
adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Times if:

a. If in ENGINEER's sole discretion an item of
material or equipment proposed by CONTRACTOR
does not qua:fy as an "or- equal" item under
1
s
�11
Ir--.
l�
F
t
n

paragraph 6.05.A.1, it will be considered a proposed
substitute item.
b. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient
information as provided below to allow ENGINEER
to determine that the item of material or equipment
proposed is essentially equivalent to that named and
an acceptable substitute therefor. Requests for
review of proposed substitute items of material or
equipment will not be accepted by ENGINEER from
anyone other than CONTRACTOR.
c. The procedure for review by ENGINEER
will be as set forth in paragraph 6.05.A.2.d, as
supplemented in the General Requirements and as
ENGINEER may decide is appropriate under the
circumstances.
d. CONTRACTOR shall first make written
application to ENGINEER for review of a proposed
substitute item of material or equipment that
CONTRACTOR seeks to furnish or use. The
application shalt certify that the proposed substitute
item will perform adequately the functions and
achieve the results called for by the general design,
be similar in substance to that specified, and be suited
to the same use as that specified. The application
will state the extent, if any, to which the use of the
proposed substitute item will prejudice
CONTRACTOR's achievement of Substantial
Completion on time, whether or not use of the
proposed substitute item in the Work will require a
change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the
provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER
for work on the Project) to adapt the design to the
proposed substitute item and whether or not
incorporation or use of the proposed substitute item
in connection with the Work is subject to payment of
any license fee or royalty. All variations of the pro-
posed substitute item from that specified will be
identified in the application, and available
engineering, sales, maintenance, repair, and
replacement services will be indicated. The
application will also contain an itemized estimate of
all costs or credits that will result directly or indi-
rectly from use of such substitute item, including
costs of redesign and claims of other contractors
affected by any resulting change, all of which will be
considered by ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed
substitute item. ENGINEER may require CON-
TRACTOR to furnish additional data about the pro-
posed substitute item.
B. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a
specific means, method, technique, sequence, or procedure
of construction is shown or indicated in and expressly
required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may
furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique,
sequence, or procedure of construction approved by ENGI-
NEER. CONTRACTOR shall submit sufficient information
to allow ENGINEER, in ENGINEER's sole discretion, to
determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that
expressly called for by the Contract Documents. The proce-
dure for review by ENGINEER will be similar to that
provided in subparagraph 6.05.A.2.
C. Engineer's Evaluation: ENGINEER will be allowed
a reasonable time within which to evaluate each proposal or
submittal made pursuant to paragraphs 6.05.A and 6.05.13.
ENGINEER will be the sole judge of acceptability. No
°or-equal" or substitute will be ordered, installed or utilized
until ENGINEER's review is complete, which will be
evidenced by either a Change.Order for a substitute or an
approved Shop Drawing for an "or equal." ENGINEER will
advise CONTRACTOR in writing of any negative
determination.
D. Special Guarantee: OWNER may require CON-
TRACTOR to furnish at CONTRACTOR's expense a special
performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any
substitute.
E. ENGINEER's Cost Reimbursement: ENGINEER will
record time required by ENGINEER and ENGINEER's
Consultants in evaluating substitute proposed or submitted by
CONTRACTOR pursuant to paragraphs 6.05.A.2 and 6.05.13
and in making changes in the Contract Documents (or in the
provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for
work on the Project) occasioned thereby. Whether or not
ENGINEER approves a substitute item so proposed or
submitted by CONTRACTOR, CONTRACTOR shall
reimburse OWNER for the charges of ENGINEER and
ENGINEER'S C.omultants.for.evaluating each such proposed
substitute.
F. COATRACTOR's Expense: CONTRACTOR shall
provide all data in support of any proposed substitute or
"or- equal" at CONTRACTOR's expense.
6.06 Concerning Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Others
A. CONTRACTOR shall not employ any Subcontractor,
Supplier, or other individual or entity (including those
acceptable to OWNER as indicated in paragraph 6.06.13),
whether initially or as a replacement, against whom OWNER
may have reasonable objection. CONTRACTOR shall not be
required to employ any Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
indiAdual or entity to furnish or perform any of the Work
against whom CONTRACTOR has reasonable objection.
B. If the Supplementary Conditions require the identity
of certain Subcontractors, Suppliers, or other individuals or

entities to be submitted to OWNER in advance for acceptance
by OWNER by a specified date prior to the Effective Date of
the Agreement, and if CONTRACTOR has submitted a list
thereof in accordance with the Supplementary Conditions,
OWNER's acceptance (either in writing or by failing to make
written objection thereto by the date indicated for acceptance
or objection in the Bidding Documents or the Contract
Documents) of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or other
individual or entity so identified may be revoked on the basis
of reasonable objection after due investigation. CON-
TRACTOR shall submit an acceptable replacement for the
rejected Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or
entity, and the Contract Price will be adjusted by the differ-
ence in the cost occasioned by such replacement, and an
appropriate Change Order will be issued or Written
Amendment signed. No acceptance by OWNER of any such
Subcontractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity,
whether initially or as a replacement, shall constitute a
waiver of any right of OWNER or ENGINEER to reject
defective Work.
C. CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to
OWNER and ENGINEER for all acts and omissions of the
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and other individuals or entities
performing or furnishing any of the Work just as
CONTRACTOR is responsible for CONTRACTOR's own
acts and omissions. Nothing in the Contract Documents shall
create for the benefit of any such Subcontractor, Supplier, or
other individual or entity any contractual relationship between
OWNER or ENGINEER and any such Subcontractor,
Supplier or other individual or entity, nor shall it create any
obligation on the part of OWNER or ENGINEER to pay. or
to -see to the payment of any moneys due any such.Subcon-
tractor, Supplier, or other individual or entity except as may
otherwise be required by Laws and Regulations.
or Supplier which specifically binds the Subcontractor or
Supplier to the applicable terms and conditions of the
Contract Documents for the benefit of OWNER and
ENGINEER. Whenever any such agreement is with a
Subcontractor or Supplier who is listed as an additional
insured on the property insurance provided in paragraph
5.06, the agreement between the CONTRACTOR and the
Subcontractor or Supplier will contain provisions whereby
the Subcontractor or Supplier waives all rights against
OWNER, CONTRACTOR, ENGINEER, ENGINEER's
Consultants, and all other individuals or entities identified in
the Supplementary Conditions to be listed as insureds or
additional insureds (and the officers, directors, partners,
employees, agents, and other consultants and subcontractors
of each and any of them) for all losses and damages caused
by, arising out of, relating to, or resulting from any of the
perils or causes of loss covered by such policies and any
other property insurance applicable to the Work. If the
insurers on any such policies require separate waiver forms
to be signed by any Subcontractor or Supplier, CONTRAC-
TOR will obtain the same.

item as such will not indicate approval of the assembly in
which the item functions.
3. ENGINEER's review and approval of Shop
Drawings or Samples shall not relieve CONTRACTOR
from responsibility for any variation from the require-
ments of the Contract Documents unless CONTRACTOR
has in writing called ENGINEER's attention to each such
variation at the time of each submittal as required by
paragraph 6.17.D.3 and ENGINEER has given written

emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or
damage, OWNER may have the defective Work corrected or
repaired or may have the rejected Work removed and
replaced, and all Claims, costs, losses, . and damages

applicable statute of limitation or repose.
13.08 Acceptance of Defective Work
A. If, instead of requiring correction or removal and
replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to
ENGINEER's recommendation of final payment,

CONTRACTOR shall pay all Claims, costs, losses, and
damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and
all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution costs)
attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and determination to
accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by
ENGINEER as to reasonableness) and the diminished value
of the Work to the extent not otherwise paid by
CONTRACTOR pursuant to this sentence. If any such
acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER's recommendation of
final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating
the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with
respect to the Work, and OWNER shall be entitled to an
appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, reflecting the
diminished value of Work so accepted. If the parties are

A. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
after- written notice from ENGINEER to correct defective
Work or to remove and replace rejected Work as required by
ENGINEER in accordance with paragraph 13.06.A, or if
CONTRACTOR fails to perform the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents, or if CONTRACTOR fails to
comply with any other provision of the Contract Documents,
OWNER may, after seven days written notice to
CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency.
B. In exercising the rights and remedies under this
paragraph. OWNER shall proceed expeditiously. In

suspend CONTRACTOR's services related thereto, take
possession of CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, con-
struction equipment and machinery at the Site, and incorpo-
rate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the
Site or for which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but
which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow
OWNER, OWNER's representatives, agents and employees,
OWNER's other contractors, and ENGINEER and
ENGINEER's Consultants access to the Site to enable
OWNER to exercise the rights and remedies under this
paragraph.
C. All Claims, costs, losses, and damages (including
but not limited to all fees and charges of engineers,
architects, attorneys, and other.professionals and all court or
arbitration or other dispute resolution costs) incurred or
sustained by OWNER in exercising the rights and remedies
under this paragraph 13.09 will be charged against CON-
TRACTOR, and a Change Order will be issued incorporating
the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with
respect to the Work; and OWNER shall be entitled to an
appropriate decrease in the Contract Price. If the parties are
unable to agree as to the amount of the adjustment, OWNER
may make a Claim therefor as provided in paragraph 10.05.

be limited to all costs of repair, or replacement of work of
others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal, or
replacement of CONTRACTOR's defective Work.
D. CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension
of the Contract Times (or Milestones) because of any delay

of units completed.
r
1 00700 -36
I -
I�
14.02 Progress Payments
A. Applications for Payments
1. At least 20 days before the date established for
each progress payment (but not more often than once a
month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER
for review an Application for Payment filled out and
signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Work
completed as of the date of the Application and
accompanied by such supporting documentation as is
required by the Contract Documents. If payment is
requested on the basis of materials and equipment not
incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably
stored at the Site or at another location agreed to in
writing, the Application for Payment shall also be
accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice, or other docu-
mentation warranting that OWNER has received the
materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and
evidence that the materials and equipment are covered
by appropriate property insurance or other arrangements
to protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which must
be satisfactory to OWNER.
2. Beginning with the second Application for
Payment, each Application shall include an affidavit of
CONTRACTOR stating that all previous progress
payments received on account of the Work have been
applied on account to discharge CONTRACTOR's
legitimate obligations associated with prior Applications
for Payment.
3. The amount of retainage with respect to pro-
gress payments will be as stipulated in the Agreement.
B. Review of Applications
1. ENGINEER will, within 10 days after receipt of
each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing.
a recommendation of payment and present : the
Application to OWNER or return the Application to
CONTRACTOR indicating in writing ENGINEER's
reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the
latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the necessary
corrections and resubmit the Application.
2. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment
requested in an Application for Payment will constitute
a representation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on
ENGINEER's observations on the Site of the executed
Work as an- experienced and qualified design profession-
al and on ENGINEER's review of the Application for
Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that
to the best of ENGINEER's knowledge, information and
belief:
00700 -37
a. the Work has progressed to the point
indicated;
b. the quality of the Work is generally in
accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to
an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole
prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the
results of any subsequent tests called for in the
Contract Documents, to a final determination of
quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work
under paragraph 9.08, and to any other
qualifications stated in the recommendation); and
c. the conditions precedent to
CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment
appear to have been fulfilled in so far as it is
ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work.
3. By recommending any such payment ENGI-
NEER will not thereby be deemed to have represented
that: (i) inspections made to check the quality or the
quantity of the Work as it has been performed have been
exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in
progress, or involved detailed inspections of the Work
beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to
ENGINEER in the Contract Documents; or (ii) that
there may not be other matters or issues between the
parties that might entitle CONTRACTOR to be paid
additionally by OWNER or entitle OWNER to withhold
payment to CONTRACTOR.
4. Neither ENGINEER's review of
CONTRACTOR's Work for the purposes of recom-
mending payments nor ENGINEER's recommendation
of any payment, including final payment, will impose
responsibility on ENGINEER to supervise, direct, or
control the Work or for the means, methods, techniques,
sequences,-or procedures of.construction, or the safety
precautions and programs.incident thereto, or for CON-
TRACTOR's failure to-. comply with Laws and Regu-
lations applicable to CONTRACTOR's performance of
the Work. Additionally, said review oc recommendation
will not impose responsibility on ENGINEER to make
any examination to ascertain how or for what purposes
CONTRACTOR has used the moneys paid on account of
the Contract Price, onto determine that title to any of
the Work, materials, or equipment has passed to
OWNER free and clear of any Liens.
5. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the
whole or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's
opinion, it would be incorrect to make the representa-
tions to OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.02.13.2.
ENGINEER may also refuse to recommend any such
payment or, because of subsequently discovered
evidence or the results of subsequent Lmpections or tests,
revise or revoke any such payment recommendation
previously made, to such extent as may be necessary in
ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER from loss
because:
' a. the Work is defective, or completed Work
has been damaged, requiring correction or replace-
' went;
b. the Contract Price has been reduced by
Written Amendment or Change Orders;
c. OWNER has been required to correct
defective Work or complete Work in accordance
with paragraph 13.09; or
d. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of -the
occurrence of any of the events enumerated in para-
graph 15.02.A.
C. Payment Becomes Due
1. Ten days after presentation of the Application
for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's recom-
mendation, the amount recommended will (subject to the
provisions of paragraph 14.02.13) become due, and when
due will be paid by OWNER to CONTRACTOR.
OWNER shall promptly pay CONTRACTOR the
amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to
by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when CONTRAC-
TOR corrects to OWNER's satisfaction the reasons for
such action.
3. If it is subsequently determined that OWNER's
refusal of payment was not justified, the amount
wrongfully withheld shall be treated as an amount due as
determined by paragraph 14.02.C.1.
14.03 CONTRACTOR's Warranty of Dtle
A. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title
to all Work, materials, and equipment covered by any
Application for Payment,. whether incorporated in the Project
or . not, will pass to OWNER. no later than the time of
payment free and clear of all Liens.
14.04 Substantial Completion
A. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Work
ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that the entire Work is
substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by
CONTRACTOR as incomplete) and request that ENGINEER
issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Promptly
' thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER
D. Reduction in Payment shall make an inspection of the Work to determine the status
of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider the Work
1. OWNER may refuse to make payment of the substantially complete, ENGINEER will notify
full amount recommended by ENGINEER because: CONTRACTOR in writing giving the reasons therefor. If
ENGINEER considers the Work substantially complete,
a. claims have been made against OWNER on ENGINEER will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative
' account of CONTRACTOR's performance or fur- certificate of Substantial Completion which shall fix the date
nishing of the Work; of Substantial Completion. There shall be attached to the
certificate a tentative .list _of .items to be completed or
' b. Liens have been filed in connection with-the
Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered
a specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure
the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens;
tc. there are other items entitling OWNER to
a set -off against the amount recommended; or
corrected before -final payment,: OWNER shall have seven
,days after receipt of. the tentative certificate during which to
make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions
of the certificate or attached list. If, after considering such
objections, ENGINEER concludes that the Work is not
substantially complete, ENGINEER will within 14 days after
submission of the tentative certificate to OWNER notify
CONTRACTOR in writing, stating the reasons therefor. If,
d. OWNER has actual knowledge of the occur- after consideration of OWNER's objections, .ENGINEER
rence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs considers the Work substantially complete, ENGINEER will
14.02.B.5.a through 14.02.B.5.c or paragraph within said 14 days execute and deliver to OWNER and
15.02.A. CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Substantial

ties pending final payment between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety,
and protection of the Work, maintenance, heat, utilities,
insurance, and warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER
and CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so
inform ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing
the definitive certificate of Substantial Completion,
ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding on
OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment.
B. OWNER shall have the right to exclude
CONTRACTOR from the Site after the date of Substantial
Completion, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR
reasonable access to complete or correct items on the
tentative list.
14.05 Partial Utilization
A. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of any
substantially completed part of the Work which has
specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or
which OWNER, ENGINEER, and CONTRACTOR agree
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the
Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended purpose
without significant interference with CONTRACTOR's
performance of the remainder of the Work, may be
accomplished prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work
subject to the following conditions.
1. OWNER at any time may request CON-
TRACTOR in writing . to permit OWNER to use any
such part of the Work which OWNER believes to be
ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If
CONTRACTOR agrees that such part of the Work is
substantially complete, CONTRACTOR will certify to
OWNER and ENGINEER that such part of the Work is
substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue
a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of
the Work. CONTRACTOR at any time may notify
OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that
CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work
ready for its intended use and substantially complete and
request ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial
Completion for that part of the Work. Within a
reasonable time after either such request, OWNER,
CONTRACTOR, and ENGINEER shall make an
inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status
of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider that
part of the Work to be substantially complete,
ENGINEER will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR
in writing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER
considers that part of the Work to be substantially
complete, the provisions of paragraph 14.04 will apply
with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of
that part of the Work and the division of responsibility
in respect thereof and access thereto.
2. No occupancy or separate operation of part of
the Work may occur prior to compliance with the
requirements of paragraph 5.10 regarding property
insurance.
14.06 Final Inspection
A. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the
entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete,
ENGINEER will promptly make a final inspection with
OWNER and CONTRACTOR and will notify CON-
TRACTOR in writing of all particulars in which this
inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective.
CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as are
necessary to complete such Work or remedy such
deficiencies.
14.07 Final Payment
1/ 11 •
A. Application for Payment
1. After CONTRACTOR has, in the opinion of
ENGINEER, satisfactorily completed all corrections
identified during the final inspection and has delivered,
in accordance with the Contract Documents, all main-
tenance and operating instructions, schedules, guaran-
tees, Bonds, certificates or other evidence of insurance
certificates of inspection, marked -up record documents
(as provided in paragraph 6.12), and other documents,
CONTRACTOR may make application for final
payment - following the procedure for progress payments.
2. The final Application for Payment shall be
accompanied (except as previously delivered) by: (i) all
documentation called for in the Contract Documents,
including but not limited to the evidence of insurance
required by subparagraph-5.04.B.7; (H) consent of the
surety, . if any, to final payment', and (iii) complete And
• legally effective releases -or waivers -(satisfactory to
OWNER) of all Lien rights-arising out of or Liens filed
in connection with the Work. _
3. In lieu of the releases or waivers of Liens
specified in paragraph 14.07.A.2 and as approved by
OWNER, CONTRACTOR may furnish receipts or
releases in full and an affidavit of CONTRACTOR that:
(i) the releases and receipts include all labor, services,
material, and equipment for which a Lien could be filed;
and (ii) all payrolls, material and equipment bills, and
other indebtedness connected with the Work for which
OWNER or OWNER's property might in any way-be
responsible have been paid or otherwise satisfied. If any
Subcontractor or Supplier fails to furnish such a release
or receipt in full, CONTRACTOR may furnish a Bond
or other collateral satisfactory to OWNER to indemnify
OWNER against any Lien.
B. Review of Application and Acceptance
1. If, on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of
the Work during construction and final inspection, and
ENGINEER's review of the final Application for
Payment and accompanying documentation as required
by the Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that
the Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR's
other obligations under the Contract Documents have
been fulfilled, ENGINEER will, within ten days after
' receipt of the final Application for Payment, indicate in
writing ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and
present the Application for Payment to OWNER for pay-
ment. At the same time ENGINEER will also give
written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the
Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of
paragraph 14.09. Otherwise, ENGINEER will return
the Application for Payment to CONTRACTOR,
indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to
recommend final payment, in which case CON-
TRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application for Payment.
C. Payment Becomes Due
1. Thirty days after the presentation to OWNER of
the Application for Payment and accompanying docu-
mentation, the amount recommended by ENGINEER
will become due and, when due, will be paid by OWN-
ER to CONTRACTOR.
14.08 Final Completion Delayed
A. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final
completion of the Work is significantly delayed, and if
ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of
CONTRACTOR's final Application for Payment and
' recommendation of ENGINEER, and without terminating the .
Agreement, make payment of the balance due for that portion
of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining
balance to be held by OWNER for Work not fully completed
or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the
Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished as required in
paragraph 5.01, the written consent of the surety to the
payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully
completed and accepted shall be submitted by CON-
TRACTOR to ENGINEER with the Application for such
payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and
conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not
constitute a waiver of Claims.
14.09 Waiver of Claims
A. The making and acceptance of final payment will
constitute:
1. a waiver of all Claims by OWNER against
CONTRACTOR, except Claims arising from unsettled
Liens, from defective Work appearing after final
inspection pursuant to paragraph 14.06, from failure to
comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any
special guarantees specified therein, or from
CONTRACTOR's continuing obligations under the
Contract Documents; and
2. a waiver of all Claims by CONTRACTOR
against OWNER other than those previously made in
writing which are still unsettled.
ARTICLE 15 - SUSPENSION OF WORK AND
TERMINATION
15.01 OWNER May Suspend Work
A. At any time and without cause, OWNER may
suspend the Work or any. portion thereof for a period of not
more than 90 consecutive days by notice in writing to CON-
TRACTOR and ENGINEER which will fix the date on which
Work will be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the
Work on the date so fixed. CONTRACTOR shall be allowed
an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to any such
suspension if CONTRACTOR makes a Claim therefor as
provided in paragraph 10.05.
15.02 OWNER May Terminate for Cause
A. The occurrence of any one or more of the following
events will justify termination for cause:
4. CONTRACTOR's persistent failure to perform
-the -Work in accordance -with the Contract. Documents
- ... (including; but.not limited to, failure to supply sufficient
skilled. workers or.:suitable materials or .equipment or
failure to adhere to the progress schedule established
under paragraph 2.07 as adjusted from time to time
pursuant to paragraph 6.04);
2. CONTRACTOR's disregard of Laws or
Regulations of any public body having jurisdiction;
3. CONTRACTOR's disregard of the authority of
ENGINEER; or
4. CONTRACTOR's violation in any substantial
s way of any provisions of the Contract Documents.

the services of CONTRACTOR, exclude CONTRACTOR
from the Site, and take possession of the Work and of all
CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construction equipment,
and machinery at the Site, and use the same to the full extent
they could be used by CONTRACTOR (without liability to
CONTRACTOR for trespass or conversion), incorporate in
the Work all materials and equipment stored at the Site or for
which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are
stored elsewhere, and finish the Work as OWNER may deem
expedient. In such case, CONTRACTOR shall not be
entitled to receive any further payment until the Work is
finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses, and damages (including but not
limited to all fees and charges of engineers, architects,
attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration
or other dispute . resolution costs) sustained by OWNER
arising out of or relating to completing the Work, such excess
