(d) Applicability of 18 U.S.C. 1001. The certification in paragraph
(b) of this provision concerns a matter within the jurisdiction

representative of the City the
on construction site will not
relieve the Contractor of full responsibility for

standards of quality which the Owner believes
necessary to
procure a satisfactory project.
17. Protection of the Work

underground pipelines, utility lines, conduits or other
underground structures which might or could be damaged by
Contractor during the construction of the project contem-
plated by these Contract Documents. The City of Lubbock
agrees that it will furnish Contractor with information as
to the location of all such underground lines and utilities
of which it has knowledge. However, such fact shall not
relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities aforemen-
tioned. All such underground lines or structures cut or
damaged by Contractor during the prosecution of the work
contemplated by this Contract shall be repaired immediately
by the Contractor to the satisfaction of the City of
Lubbock, Texas, at Contractor's expense.

question so raised to arbitration, -as hereinafter provided. It

_
Architect ma y reject any work found to be defective or not in
'accordance
with the Contract Documents, regardless of the stage
Of its
completion or the time or place of discovery of such
errors, and regardless of whether either Owner's Representative
or Architect has
previously accepted the work through_oversight
or otherwise. If
any work which is required to be inspected,
tested or approved, is covered
up without written approval or
consent of'the Owner's Representative or Architect, it must, if
requested by the Owner's Representative or Architect, be un-
covered for observation and testing at the Contractor's expense.
In the
event that any part of the work is being fabricated or
r"
manufactured at a location where it is not convenient for Owner's
Representative or Architect to
make observations of such work or
require testing of said work, then in such event, -Owner's Repre-
sentative or Architect may require Contractor to furnish Owner's
Representative
C
or Architect certificates of inspection, testing
or approval made by persons competent to
perform such tasks at
the location where that
part of the work is being manufactured or
fabricated. All such tests will be in accordance with the
methods prescribed by the American Society for Testing and
Materials or such other applicable organization as maybe required
by law
or the Contract Documents.
If any work which is required to be inspected, tested or
approved, is covered up without written approval or consent of
the Owner's Reprsentative or Architect, it must, if requested by
the Owner's Representative or Architect, be uncovered for
observation and testing at the Contractor's expense. The cost of
all such inspections, tests and approvals shall be borne by the
Contractor unless otherwise provided herein. Any work which
fails to meet the requirements of an h t

23. DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES
It is agreed that if the work or any part thereof or
'.. any material brought on the site of the work for use in the work
or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the Owner's Repre-
sentative or Architect as unsuitable or not in conformity with
plans, specifications and Contract Documents, the Contractor
.shall, after receipt of written notice thereof from the Owner's
Representative or Architect, forthwith remove such material and
rebuild or otherwise remedy such work so that it shall be in full
- 9 -
,accordance with this Contract. It is further agreed that any
remedial action contemplated as hereinaboveset forth shall be at
the Contractor's expense.
The Contractor shall promptly correct any work rejected by
the Owner's Representative or Architect as defective or as
failing to conform to the Contract Documents, whether observed
before or after substantial completion and whether or not
fabricated, installed or completed, and shall correct any work
found to be defective or nonconforming within a period of one
year from the date of substantial completion of the Contract, or
within such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or
by the terms of any applicable special warranty required by the
Contract Documents. The provisions of this Section apply to work
done by subcontractors as well as to work done by direct em-
ployees of the Contractor. The Contractor shall bear all costs
of correcting such rejected work, including compensation for the
Architect's additional services made necessary thereby.
If the Contractor fails to correct defective work as
required, or persistently fails to carry out the work in accor-
dance with the Contract Documents, the Owner's Representative, by
a written order signed personally or by an agent specifically so
empowered by the Owner in writing, may order the Contractor to
stop the work', or any portion thereof, until the cause for such
order has been eliminated; however, this right of the Owner to
stop the work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of the
Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of the Contractor or
any other person or entity.
If the Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the work
in accordance with the Contract Documents, and fails within seven
days after receipt'of written notice from the Owner's Representa-
tive or other agent to commence and continue correction of such
default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may,
after seven days following receipt by the Contractor of an
additional written notice, and without prejudice to any other
remedy he may have, make good such deficiencies. In such case,
an appropriate Change Order shall be issued deducting from the
payments then or thereafter due the Contractor the cost of
_correcting such deficiencies, including compensation for the
Architect's additional services made necessary by such default,
neglect or failure. If the payments then or thereafter due the
Contractor are not sufficient to cover such amount, the Contrac-
tor shall pay the difference to'the Owner.
If, within one year after the date of substantial completion
of the work or designated portion thereof, or within one year
after acceptance by the Owner of designated equipment, or within
such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the
terms of any applicable special warranty required by the Contract
Documents, any of the work is found to be defective or not in
accordance with the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall
correct -it promptly after receipt of a written notice from the
- 10 -
Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Con-
tractor a written acceptance of such condition. This obligation
shall survive termination of the Contract. The Owner shall give
such notice promptly after discovery of the defect.
�- 24. CHANGES AND ALTERATIONS
The Contractor further agrees that the Owner may make such
changes and alterations as the Owner may see fit, in the line,
grade, form, dimensions, plans or materials for the work herein
contemplated, or any part thereof, either before or after the
beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of
this Contract and the accompanying bond.
If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the
work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a claim
for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be
dispensed with. If they increase the amount of work, and the
increased work can fairly be classified under the specifications,
such increase shall be paid according to the quantity actually
done and at the unit price established for such work under this
Contract; otherwise, such additional work shall be paid for as
provided under extra work. In case the Owner shall make such
changes or alterations as shall make useless any work already
done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the
Owner shall recompense the Contractor for any material or labor
so used and for any actual loss occasioned by such change due
to actual expenses incurred in preparation for the work as
originally planned.
25. EXTRA WORK -
The term "extra work" as used in this Contract shall be
understood to mean and include all work that may be required by
the Owner or Owner's Representative to be done by the Contractor
to accomplish any change, alteration or addition to the work as
shown on the plans and specifications or Contract Documents and
not covered by the Contractor's proposal, except as provided
under changes and alterations herein.
It is agreed that the Contractor shall perform all extra
work under the direction of the Architect when presented with a
written work order signed by the Owner's Representative, subject,
however, to the right of the Contractor to require written'.
confirmation of such extra work order by the Owner. It is also
agreed that the compensation to be paid to the Contractor for
performing said extra work shall be determined by one or more of
the following methods:
Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or
Method (B) - By agreed lump sum; or
Method (C) - If neither Method (A) or Method (B) be agreed
upon before the extra work is commenced, then
the Contractor shall be paid the actual field
cost of the work, plus fifteen (15%) percent.
In the event said extra work be performed and paid for under _
Method (C), then the provisions of this paragraph shall apply and
the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost of
all workmen, such as ,foremen, timekeepers, mechanics and labor-
ers, and materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on machinery
and equipment, for the time actually employed or used on such
extra work,'plus actual transportation charges necessarily
incurred, together.with all expenses incurred directly on account
of such extra work, including Social Security, Old Age Benefits,
Maintenance Bonds, Public Liability and Property Damage and
Workmen's Compensation and all other insurances as may be
required by law or ordinances or directed by the Owner's Repre-
sentative or Architect, or by them agreed to. Owner's Represen-
tative may direct the form in which accounts of the actual field
cost shall be kept and records of these accounts shall be made
available to the Owner's Representative. The Owner's Represen-
tative or Architect may also specify in writing, before the work
commences, the method of doing the work and the type and kind of
machinery and equipment to be used;, otherwise, these matters
shall be determined by the Contractor. Unless otherwise agreed
upon or specified, the prices for the use of machinery and --
equipment shall be determined by using 1000, of the latest
Schedule of Equipment and Ownership Expenses adopted by the
Associated General Contractors of America. Where practical, the
terms and prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be
incorporated in the written extra work order. The fifteen
percent (15a) of the actual field cost to be paid to the Con-
tractor shall cover and compensate him for his profit, overhead, "-
general superintendence, and field office expense, and all other
elements of cost and expense not embraced within the actual field
cost as herein defined, save that where the Contractor's Camp or
Field Office must be maintained primarily on account of such
extra work, then the cost to maintain and operate the same shall
be included in the "actual field cost."
No claim for extra work of any kind will be allowed unless
ordered in writing by the Owner's Representative. In case any
orders or instructions appear to ;the Contractor to involve extra
work for which he should receive compensation or an adjustment in
the construction time, he shall make a written request to the
Owner's Representative for a written order authorizing such extra
work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or
does not constitute extra work, oras to the payment therefor,
and the Owner's Representative insists upon its performance, the
Contractor shall proceed with the work after making a written
request for a written order and shall keep adequate and accurate
account of the actual field cost thereof, as provided under
- 12 -
r
r
Method (C). The Contractor will thereby preserve the right to
submit the matter of payment to arbitration, as herein below
{^ provided.
26. DISCREPANCIES AND OMISSIONS
It is further agreed that it is the intent of this Contract
that all work described in the proposal, the specifications,
plans and other Contract Documents is to be done for the price
quoted by the Contractor and that such price shall include all
appurtenances necessary to complete the work in accordance with
the intent of these Contract Documents, as interpreted by the
Architect. If the Contractor finds any discrepancies or
omissions in these plans, specifications or Contract Documents,
he should notify the Architect and obtain a clarification before
the bids are received, and if no such request is received by the
Architect prior to the opening of bids, then it shall be consi-
dered that the Contractor fully understands the work to be
included and has provided sufficient sums in his proposal to
complete the work in accordance with these plans and specifi-
cations. It is further understood that any request for clari-
fication must be submitted no later than five days prior to the
opening of bids.
27. RIGHT OF OWNER TO MODIFY METHODS AND EQUIPMENT
If, at any time, the methods or equipment used by the Con-
tractor are found to be inadequate to secure the quality of work
with the rate of progress required under this Contract, the Owner
or Owner's Representative may order the Contractor in writing to
increase their safety or improve their character and efficiency
and the Contractor shall comply with such order.
!
If, at any time, the working force of the Contractor is
inadequate for
securing the progress herein specified, the
Contractor shall, if so ordered in writing, increase his
1-

amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or
for the Contractor or any subcontractor under Worker's Compensa-
tion acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit
acts. The obligations of the Contractor under this Section shall
not extend to the liability of the Architect, his agents or

maps, drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, change orders, _
designs or specifications, or (2) the giving of or the failure to
give directions or instructions by the Architect, his agents or
employees, provided such giving or failure to give is the primary
cause of the injury or damage. -
The safety precautions taken shall be the sole responsi-
bility of the Contractor, in his sole discretion as an Indepen-
dent Contractor.' Inclusion of this section in the Agreement, as
well as any notice which may be given by the Owner, the Owner's
Representative or the Architect concerning omission under this
section as the work progresses, are intended as reminders to
the Contractor of his duty, and shall not be construed as any
assumption of duty to supervise safety precautions taken by
either the Contractor or any of his subcontractors.

18 -
The Contractor agrees that said work shall be prosecuted
regularly, diligently and uninterruptedly at such rate of
progress as will insure full completion thereof within the time
specified. It is expressly understood and agreed by and between

tion of the same, taking into consideration the average climatic
range and usual industrial conditions prevailing in the locality.

complete the work within the time herein specified, or any proper
extension thereof granted by the Owner, then the Contractor does
hereby agree, as a part of the consideration for the awarding of

such breach of Contract as hereinafter set forth, for each and
every calendar day that the Contractor shall be in default after
the time stipulated in the Contract for completing the work.
The said amount is fixed and agreed upon by and between the
Contractor and the Owner because of the impracticability and
extreme difficulty of fixing and ascertaining the actual damages
the Owner would in such event sustain, and said amount is agreed
to be the amount of damages which the Owner would sustain, and
said amount shall be permanently retained from time to time by
the Owner from current periodical estimates.
It is further agreed that time is of the essence for each
and every portion of this Contract and of the specifications
wherein a definite and certain length of time is fixed for the
performance of any act whatsoever; and where, under the Contract,
additional time is allowed for the completion of any work, the
new time limit fixed by such extension shall be of the essence of
this Contract. Provided, that the Contractor shall not be
charged with liquidated damages or any excess cost when the Owner
determines that the Contractor is without fault and the Contrac-
tor's reasons for the time extension are acceptable to the Owner.
Provided, further, that the Contractor shall not be charged with
liquidated damages or any excess cost when the delay in comple-
tion of the work is due:
(a) To any preference, priority or allocation order duly
issued by the Government.
(b) To any unforeseeable cause beyond the control and
without the fault or negligence of the Contractor,
including, but not restricted to, acts of. God or of
r the public enemy, acts of the Owner, acts of another
Contractor in the performance of a contract with the
Owner, fires, floods, epidemics, quarantine restric-
tions, strikes, freight embargoes or severe weather;
e
and
- 19
(c) To any delays of subcontractors or suppliers occasioned
by any of the causes specified in subsections (a) or
(b) of this section.
Provided further, that the Contractor shall, within ten (10)
days from the beginning of such delay, unless the Owner shall
grant a further period of time prior to the date of final
settlement of the Contract, notify the Owner's Representative, in
writing, of the causes of the delay, who shall ascertain the
facts and extent of the delay and notify the Contractor within a
reasonable time of the Owner's decision in the matter.
34. TIME AND ORDER OF COMPLETION
It is the meaning and intent of this Contract, unless
otherwise herein specifically provided, that the Contractor shall
be allowed to prosecute his work at such time and sessions, in
such order or precedence, and in such manner as shall be most
conducive to economy of construction; provided, however, that the
order and time of prosecution shall be such that the work shall
be substantially completed as a whole and in part, in accordance
with this Contract, the plans and specifications, and within the
time of completion designated in the proposals; provided, also,
that when the Owner is having other work done, either by contract
or by his -own force, the Owner's Representative may direct the
time and manner of construction work done under this.Contract so
that conflicts will be avoided and the construction of the
various works being done for the Owner shall be harmonized.
The Contractor shall submit, at such times as may reasonably
be requested by the Owner's Representative or Architect, sche-
dules which shall show the order in which the Contractor pro-
poses to.carry on the work, with dates at which the Contractor
will start the several parts of the work, and estimated dates of
completion of the several parts.
35. EXTENSION OF TIME
The Contractor agrees that he has submitted his proposal in
full recognition of the time required for the completion of this
project, taking into consideration the average climatic range and
industrial conditions prevailing in this locality, and has
considered the liquidated damage provisions of section 33
hereinabove set forth, and that he shall not be entitled to, nor
will he request, an extension of time on this Contract, except
when his work has been delayed by an act or neglect of the Owner,
Owner's Representative, the Architect, employees of the Owner or
other contractors employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in
the work, or by strike, walk -outs, acts of God or the public
enemy, fire or flood. _ The Contractor may apply in writing for an
extension of time, submitting therewith all written justifica-
tions as may be required by the Owner's Representative for such
an extension. The Owner's Representative within ten (10) days
after receipt of a written request for an extension of time by
- 20 -
1. the Contractor
supported by all requested documentation shall
then submit such written request to the City Council of the City
r of Lubbock for its consideration. Should the Contractor disagree
with the action of the City Council, such disagreement shall be
settled by arbitration as hereinafter provided.
36. HINDRANCE AND DELAYS
In executing this Agreement, the Contractor agrees that in
undertaking to complete the work within the time herein fixed, he
has taken into consideration and made allowances for all hin-
drances and delays incident to such work, whether growing out of
delays in securing material or workmen or otherwise. No charge
shall.be.made by the Contractor for hindrance or delays from any
cause during the progress of any part of the work embraced in
this Contract except where the work is stopped by order of the
Owner or Owner's Representative for the Owner's convenience, in
which event such expense, as in the judgment of the Owner's
Representative is caused by such stoppage, shall be paid by Owner
to Contractor.
37. QUANTITIES AND MEASUREMENTS
No extra or customary measurements of any kind will be .
allowed, but the actual measured or computed length, area, solid
contents, number and weight only shall be considered, unless
otherwise specifically provided.
In the event this Contract is let on a unit price basis,
then Owner and Contractor agree that this Contract, including the
specifications, drawings and other Contract Documents are
intended to show clearly all work to be done and material to be
furnished hereunder. Where the estimated quantities are shown
for the various classes of work to be done and material to be
furnished under this Contract, they are approximations and are to
be used only as a basis for estimating the probable cost of the
work and for comparing their proposals offered for the work. It
is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be
done and the materials to be furnished under this Contract may
differ somewhat from these estimates, and that where the basis
for payment under this Contract is the unit price method, payment
shall be for the actual amount of work done and materials
furnished on the project.
38. PROTECTION OF ADJOINING PROPERTPIKY
The Contractor shall take proper means to protect the
adjacent or adjoining property or properties in any way en-
countered and which may be injured or damaged by any
t^" process of construction to be undertaken under this Agreement,
and he shall be liable for any and all claims for such injury or
damage on account of his failure to fully�-•
all adjacentpro
property. The Contractor agrees to indenify, save
and hold
harmless the Owner against any claim or claims for damages due
21 - -
to any injury to any adjacent or adjoining property arising or
growing out of the performance of this Contract, but such
indemnity shall not apply to any claim of any kind arising out
of the existence or character of the work.
39. PRICE FOR WORK
In consideration of furnishing all necessary labor, equip-
ment and material and the completion of all work by the Contrac-
tor, and on the delivery of all materials embraced in this
Contract in full conformity with the specifications and stipu-
lations herein contained, the Owner agrees to pay the Contractor
the price set forth in the proposal attached hereto, which has
been made a part of this Contract, and the Contractor hereby
agrees to receive such price in full for furnishing all labor,,
equipment and material required for the aforesaid work, and for
all expenses incurred by him, and for well and truly performing
the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to
this Agreement, the attached specifications, drawings, Contract
Documents and requirements of the Architect and the Owner's
Representative.
40. CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE & PERIODIC ESH MATES
Immediately after execution and delivery of the Contract,
and before the first partial payment is made, the Contractor
shall deliver to the Owner's Representative and to the Architect
an estimated construction progress schedule in a form satisfac-
tory to the Owner's Representative and Architect, showing the
proposed dates of commencement and completion of each of the
various subdivisions of work required under the Contract Docu-
ments and the anticipated amount of each monthly payment that
will become due the Contractor in accordance with the progress
schedule. The Contractor shall also furnish on forms to be
supplied by the Owner (a) a detailed estimate giving a complete
breakdown of the Contract price and (b) periodic itemized
estimates of work done for the purpose of making partial payments
thereon. The costs employed in making up any of these schedules
will be used only for determining the basis of partial payments
and will not be considered as fixing a basis for additions to or
deductions from the Contract price.
At least fifteen days before the date for each progress
payment established in Section 41 of these General Conditions,
the Contractor shall submit to the Architect an itemized Appli-
cation for Payment, notarized if required, supported by such data
substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as the Owner or
the Architect may require, and reflecting retainage, if any, as
provided elsewhere in the Contract Documents.'
Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents,
payments will be made on account of materials or equipment not
incorporated in the work but delivered and suitably stored at
the site.
22 -
r
The Contractor Warrants that title to all work, materials
and equipment covered by an application for payment will pass to
the Owner either by incorporation in the construction -or upon
the receipt of payment by the Contractor, whichever occurs first,
free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests or _
encumbrances, hereinafter referred to as "liens", and that no
work, materials or equipment covered by an Application for
Payment will have been acquired by.the Contractor, or by any
other person performing work at the site or furnishing materials
and equipment for the project, subject to an agreement under
which an interest therein or an encumbrance thereon is retained
by the seller or otherwise imposed by the Contractor or such
other person.
The Architect will, within seven days after the receipt of
the Contractor's Application for Payment, either issue a Certi-
ficate for Payment to the Owner, with a copy to the Contractor,
for such amount as the Architect determines is properly due, or
notify the Contractor in writing of his reasons for withholding a
Certificate.
The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a
representation by the"'Archite'ct to the Owner, based on the
Architect's observations at the site and the data comprising the
Application for Payment, that the work has progressed to the
point indicated; that, to the best of his knowledge, information
and belief, the quality of the work is in accordance with the
Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the work for
conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Comple-
tion, to the results of any subsequent tests required by or
performed under the Contract Documents, to minor deviations from
the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion, and to
any specific qualifications stated in his Certificate); and that
the Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified.
However, by issuing a Certificate for Payment, the Architect
shall not thereby bedeemed to represent that he has made exhaus-
tive or continuous on-site inspections to check the quality or
quantity of the work, or that he has reviewed the construction
means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or that he
has made any examination to ascertain how or for what purpose
the Contractor has used the moneys previously paid on account of
the Contract Sum.
41. PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR
After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment,
and not later than the 25th day of each calendar month, the Owner
�• shall make a progress payment to the Contractor on the basis of a
duly certified and approved estimate of the work performed during
the preceding calendar month under this Contract, but to insure
the proper performance of this Contract, the Owner shall 'retain
five percent (5A) of the amount of each estimate until final
completion and acceptance of all work covered by this Contract:
- 23 -
Provided, that the Contractor shall submit his estimate not later
than the first day of the month; Provided, further, that the
Owner at any time after fifty percent SOA) of the work has been
cgmpleted, if it finds that satisfactory progress is being made,
may make any of the remaining progress payments in full; Pro-
vided, further, that on completion and acceptance of each
separate building, public work or other division of the Con-
tract, on which the price is stated separately in the Contract,
payment may be made in full, including retained percentages
thereon, less authorized deductions.
In preparing estimates, the material delivered on the site
and preparatory work done may be into consideration.
All material and work covered by partial payments made shall
thereupon become the sole property of the Owner, but this
provision shall not be construed as relieving the Contractor
from the sole responsibility for the care and protection of
materials and work upon which payments have been made, or the
restoration of any damaged work, or as a waiver of the right of
the Owner to require the fulfillment of all the terms of the
Contract.
Owner's Right To Withhold Certain Amounts and Make Applica-
tion Thereof. The Contractor agrees that he will indemnify and
save the Owner harmless from all claims growing out of the lawful --
demands of subcontractors, laborers, workmen, mechanics, mate-
rialmen and furnishers of machinery and parts thereof, equip-
ment, power tools and all supplies, including commissary,
incurred in -the furtherance of the performance of the Contract.
The Contractor shall, at'the Owner's request, furnish satisfac-
tory evidence that all obligations of, the nature hereinabove
designated have been paid, discharged or waived. If the
Contractor fails so to do, then the Owner may, after having
served written notice on the said Contractor, either directly pay
unpaid bills of which the Owner has written notice, or withhold
from the Contractor's unpaid compensation a sum of money deemed
reasonably sufficient to pay any and all such lawful.claims until
satisfactory evidence is furnished that all liabilities have been
fully discharged, whereupon payment to the Contractor shall be
resumed in accordance with the terms of this Contract, but in no
event shall the provisions of this sentence be construed to
impose any obligations upon the Owner to either the Contractor or
his Surety. In paying any unpaid bills of the Contractor, the
Owner shall be deemed the agent of the Contractor, and any
payment so made by the Owner shall be considered as a payment
made under the Contract by the Owner to the Contractor, and the
Owner shall not be liable to the Contractor for any such payments
made in good faith.
No Certificate for a progress payment, nor any. progress
payment, nor any partial or entire use or occupancy of the
project by the Owner, shall constitute an acceptance of any work —
not in accordance with the Contract Documents.
_ 24 _
- 25 -
F.
The Contractor shall promptly pay each subcontractor, upon
receipt of
payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the
Contractor
on account of such subcontractor's work, the amount to
which said subcontractor is
entitled, reflecting the percentage
actually retained, if any, from payments to the Contractor
on
account of -such subcontractor's work. The Contractor shall, by
an appropriate agreement with each subcontractor, require each
�..
subcontractor to make payments to his sub -subcontractors in
I
similar manner.

not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all
? work in accordance with the Contract Documents.
Within thirty-one (31) days after the Contractor has given
the
Architect written notice that the work has been completed or
substantially completed, the Architect
and the Owner's Represen-
tative shall inspect the work and within said time, if the work
be found to be completed
or substantially completed in accordance
with the Contract Documents, the Architect
will then prepare a
Certificate of Substantial Completion, which shall establish the
Date of Substantial Completion, and shall fix the time within
which the Contractor shall complete the items listed therein.

the Contractor..
58. FINAL PAYMENT
Upon receipt of written notice that the work is ready for
final inspection and acceptance, and upon receipt of a final
Application for Payment, the Architect will promptly make such
inspection and, when he finds the work acceptable under the
Contract Documents, and the Contract fully performed, he will
prepare a Final Statement of the value of all work performed and
materials furnished under the terms of the Agreement and promptly
issue a final Certificate for Payment, stating that to the best
of his knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of his
observations and inspections, the work has been completed in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Contract Docu-
ments, and that the entire balance found due the Contractor and
noted in said final Certificate, is due and payable. The
Architect's final Certificate for Payment will constitute a
further representation that the conditions precedent to the
Contractor's being entitled to final payment, as set forth, have
been fulfilled.
Upon receipt of the Architect's Certificate of Completion,
the Owner's Representative shall, if such Certificate is satis-
factory, submit same to the Owner, who shall pay to the Contrac-
tor on or before the 31st day after the date of the Certificate
of Completion, the balance due Contractor under the terms of this
Agreement, provided he has fully performed his contractual
obligations under the terms of said Agreement; and said payment
shall become due in any event upon said performance by the
Contractor. Neither the certificate of acceptance, nor the final
payment, nor any provisions in the Contract Documents shall
relieve the Contractor of the obligation for fulfillment of any
warranty which may be required in the special conditions (if any)
of this Contract or in the specifications made a part of this
Contract.
59. CORRECTION OF WORK BEFORE FINAL PAYMENT FOR WORK
The Contractor shall promptly remove from the Owner's
premises all materials condemned by the Owner's Representative on
account of failure to conform to the Contract, whether actually
incorporated in the work or not, and the Contractor shall at his
own expense promptly replace such condemned materials with other
materials conforming to the requirements of the Contract. The
Contractor shall also bear the expense ofrestoring all work of
other contractors damaged by any such removal or replacement. If

Contractor's expense.'
60. CORRECTION OF WORK AFTER FINAL PAYMENT

in this Contract shall relieve the Contractor of responsibility
for faulty materials or workmanship, and he shall remedy any
defects due thereto and pay for any damage to other work result-
ing therefrom which shall appear within a period of one (1) year
from the date of substantial completion. The Owner or the
Owner's Representative shall give notice of observed defects with
reasonable promptness.
61. PAYMENT WITHHELD
The Architect may decline to certify payment, and may
withhold his Certificate in whole or in part, to the extent
reasonably necessary to protect the Owner if, in his opinion, he
is unable to make representations.to the Owner as provided. If
the Architect is unable to make representations to the Owner as
provided, and to certify payment in the amount of the Applica-
tion, he will notify the Contractor. If the Contract or the
Architect cannot agree on a revised amount, the Architect will
promptly issue a Certificate for Payment for the amount for which
he is able to make such representations to the Owner. The
Architect may also decline to certify payment or, because of
subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations, he
may nullify the whole or any part of any Certificate for Payment
previously issued, or the Owner may withhold or nullify the whole
or part of any Certificate of Payment, to such extent as may be
necessary to protect the Owner from loss because of:

62. DELAYED PAYMENT
If within seven days after receipt of the Contractor's
Application for Payment, the Architect does ,not issue a Certi-
ficate for Payment or notify the Contractor that he, is unable to
"make representations to the Owner, as provided in Section 40
herein, or if the Owner does not pay the Contractor within seven
days after the date established in the Contract Documents any
amount certified by the Architect or awarded by arbitration, or
any sum due to the Contractor which is not in dispute, then the
Owner shall pay the Contractor,in addition to the sums shown as
due by such statement or Certificate, interest thereon at the
rate of zero percent per annum, unless otherwise specified, from
the date due, as provided under partial payments and final
payments heretofore set forth in this Contract, until such sums
are fully paid, which shall fully liquidate any injury to the
Contractor growing out of such delay in payment.

questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the Contractor
shall be in writing and filed with the Owner's Representative

submitted to arbitration at the request of either party to the
dispute. The parties may agree upon one arbitrator, otherwise,

65. ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR
In case the Contractor should abandon and fail or refuse to
resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from
the Owner's Representative or Architect, or if the Contractor
fails to comply with the orders of the Architect, when such
orders are consistent with this Contract, or the Specifications
hereto attached, then the Surety on the bond shall be notified in
writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said
notice shall be delivered to the Contractor.
After receiving said notice of abandonment, the Contractor
shall not remove from the work any machiner
yl materials or supplies then on the job, but the esamemetogether
s�
with any materials and equipment under the Contract for work, may
be held for use on the work by the Owner or the Surety of the
Contractor or another Contractor in completion of the work; and
the Contractor shall not receive any rental or credit therefore
r, (except when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit
shall be allowed as provided for under Section 25 of this
35 -
Contract); it being understood that the use of such equipment and
materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work -
and be reflected in the final settlement.
In case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with
the notice for completion hereinbefore provided for,,within ten —r
_(10) days after service of such notice, then the Owner may
provide for completion of the work in either of the following
elective manners: -
(a) The Owner may employ such force of men and use of
machinery, equipment, tools, materials and supplies as said
Owner may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the
expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, mate-
rials and supplies to said Contractor, and the expense so
charged shall be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such
moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time
become due to the Contractor under and by virtue of this
Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which
would have been payable under this Contract, if the same had
been completed by the Contractor, then said Contractor shall
receive the difference. In case such expense is greater
than the sum would have been payable under this Contract, if
the same had been completed by said Contractor, then the
Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the amount of such
excess to the Owner; or
(b) The Owner, under sealed bids, after notice -
published as required by law, at least twice in a newspaper
having a general circulation in the county where the -work is
located, -may let the contract for the completion of the
work under substantially the same terms and conditions which
are provided in this Contract. In case of any increase in
cost to the Owner under the'new contract as compared to what
would have been the cost under this Contract, such increase
shall be charged to the Contractor, and the Surety shall be
and remain bound therefore. However, should the cost to
complete any such new contract prove to be less than that
which would have been the cost to complete the work under
this Contract, the Contractor or his Surety shall be
credited therewith.
When the work shall have been substantially completed,
the Contractor and his Surety shall be so notified and
certificates of completion and acceptance, as provided in
Section 57 hereinabove set forth, shall be issued. A
complete itemizedstatement of the Contract accounts,
certified by the Owner's Representative as being correct,
shall .then be prepared and delivered to the Contractor and
his Surety, whereon the Contractor or his Surety or the
Owner, as the case may be, shall pay the balance due, as
reflected by said statement, within sixty days after the
date of certificate of completion.

In the event the statement of accounts shows that the
cost to complete the work is less than that which would have
been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by
the Contractor under the terms of this Contract, or when the
Contractor and/or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to
be due by them to the Owner, then all machinery, equipment,
^"
tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work
shall be turned over to the Contractor and/or his Surety.
Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract
r"
price, and the Contractor and/or his Surety fail to pay the
amount due the Owner within the time designated hereinabove,
and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials
or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof,
together with an itemized list of such equipment and
materials shall be mailed to the Contractor and his Surety
at the respective addresses designated in this Contract;
T
provided, however, that actual written notice given in any
}
manner will satisfy this condition. After mailing, or other
giving of such notice, such property shall. be held at the
risk of the Contractor and his Surety, subject only to the
duty of the Owner to exercise ordinary care to protect such
property. After fifteen (15) days from the date of said
notice, the Owner may sell such machinery, equipment, tools,
materials or supplies and apply the net sum derived from
such sale to the credit of the Contractor and his Surety.
Such sale may be made at either public or private sale, with
the
or without notice, as Owner may elect. The Owner shall
`
release to the proper owners any machinery, equipment, -
._
tools, materials or supplies which remain on the job site
and belong to persons other than the Contractor of his
Surety.
66. ABANDONMENT BY OWNER
In case the Owner shall fail to comply with the terms of
this Contract, and should fail or refuse to comply with said
terms within ten (10) days after written notification by the
Contractor, then the Contractor may suspend or wholly abandon the
work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools and equip-
ment, and all materials on the ground that have not been included
in payments to the Contractor and have not been incorporated into
the work. Thereupon, the Architect shall make an estimate of the
^"
total amount earned by the Contractor, which estimate shall
include the value of all work actually completed by said Con-
tractor at the prices stated in the attached proposal, the value
r"
of all partially completed work at a fair and equitable price,
and the amount of all Extra Work performed at the prices agreed
upon, or provided for by the terms of this Contract, and a
reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the
Contractor to carry the whole work to completion, and which
cannot be utilized. The Architect shall then make a final
stateme t of the balance due the Contractor by deducting from the
T
above estimate all previous payments by the Owner and all other
}
sums th t may be retained by the Owner under the terms of this
- 37 -
,Agreement, and shall certify same to the Owner's Representative.
'If the Owner's Representative finds the statement to be satis-
factory, he shall submit it to the Owner, who shall pay to the
Contractor on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the
notification by the Contractor the balance shown by said final
statement as due the Contractor under the terms of this Agree- r
ment.

stances and the prosecution of the same, or from unusual obstruc-
tions or difficulties which maybe encountered in the prosecution
of the work, shall be sustained and borne by the Contractor at
his own 'cost and expense.

right to observe Contractor's work during its performance and to
carry out the other prerogatives which are expressly reserved to

affect the status of the Ccntractor as an independent contractor
with respect to the Owner, Owner's Representative, Architect or
the Contractor's own employees, or to any other person, firm or
corporation.
69. CLEANING UP ,
The Contractor shal•1 at all times keep the premises free
from accumulation of debris caused by the work, and at the
completion of the work he shall remove all such debris and also
his tools, scaffolding and surplus materials, and shall leave the

good order and condition. In case of dispute, the Owner may
remove the debris and charge the cost to the Contractor.

Contract at any time when circumstances beyond the Contractor's
control occur, thru no fault of the Contractor, which prohibit
the completion of the Agreement as contemplated by the parties at
