order authorizing such extra work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute
extra work or as to the payment therefore, and the Owner's Representative insists upon its performance, the
Contractor shall proceed with the work after making written request for written order and shall keep adequate and
accurate account of the actual field cost thereof, as provided under Method (Q . The Contractor will thereby

been the cost to the Owner had the work been completed by the Contractor under the terms of this contract, or when
