The Town shall be the sole judge of the work and materials with respect to both quantity and quality. The contract documents do not purport to control the method of performing the work but only the requirements as to the nature of the completed work. The Contractor shall assume the entire responsibility for methods of performing the work. 1.02 INSPECTION OF CONSTRUCTION The Owner’s Representative, as often as he may deem it expedient, shall have access to the work and to the site of the work and to all places where work is being prepared or whence materials, equipment, or machinery are being obtained for the work. The Contractor shall afford every facility and every assistance in obtaining the right of such access and shall give the Owner’s Representative any and all information requested by him in connection therewith. If the contract documents, the Owner’s Representative’s instructions, laws, ordinances, or any public authority require any part of the work to be specially inspected, tested, or approved, the Contractor shall give the Owner’s Representative adequate prior written authority. The Contractor shall, at the request of the Owner’s Representative, at such time as the Owner’s Representative shall designate, open for inspection any part of the work which has been covered up; and should the Contractor refuse or neglect to comply with such request, the Town may employ any other person to open up the same or to do so itself. If any of the parts of the work have been covered up in contravention of the Owner’s Representative’s instructions, or, if on being opened up it is found not to be in accordance with the terms of the contract documents, the expense of the opening and covering up again, whether done by the Contractor or not, shall be charged to the Contractor. If the work has been covered up but not in contravention of the Owner’s Representative’s instructions and if found to be in accordance with the terms of the contract documents, the actual necessary expense of opening and covering up again shall be borne by the Town and if the work of opening and covering up is done by the Contractor, it shall be considered as Extra Work and paid for accordingly. Neither the failure to make such inspection, nor to discover defective workmanship, materials or equipment, nor acceptance of or payment to the Contractor for such work shall prejudice the rights of the Town thereafter to correct or reject the same as hereinafter provided. 1.03 RIGHT TO ISSUE CHANGE ORDERS If for any reason, it may become desirable during the course of the work to change the alignment, dimensions or design of the work, to add work or to delete work, the Town reserves the right to issue change orders in writing to give effect to such changes as may be necessary or desirable. The changes may or may not result in a change in the cost of work or time required to perform the work. When the Contractor considers that any change ordered in writing by the Town involves a change in the cost of work or time required to perform the work, he shall immediately notify the Town in writing and shall subsequently keep the Town informed as to when and where extra work 00400-1 ---PAGE BREAK--- is to be performed and shall make claim for compensation therefor each month not later than the first day of the month following that in which the work claimed as extra work was performed. If the changes do, in the opinion of the Town, change the cost of work or time required to perform the work, the contract price shall be equitably adjusted. The Owner’s Representative may instruct the Contractor in writing to make minor changes in the construction where such changes are, in the opinion of the Owner’s Representative, not inconsistent with the purposes of the contract documents and where such changes do not involve additional cost for the work to be furnished. The Contractor shall make no such minor changes without receipt of written Owner’s Representative’s instructions setting forth the minor changes to be made and the Contractor's compliance therewith shall constitute his acknowledgment that such minor changes will not result in any additional cost for construction. 1.04 SUCCESSOR'S OBLIGATION All grants, covenants, provisos and claims, rights, powers, privileges, and liabilities contained in the contract documents shall be read and held as made by and with and granted to and imposed upon the Contractor and the Town and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns. 1.05 CONTRACTOR'S SUPPLIER AND EQUIPMENT The Contractor alone shall at all times be responsible for the adequacy, efficiency, and sufficiency of his and his Subcontractor's supplier and equipment. The Town shall have the right to make use of the Contractor's supplier and equipment in the performance of any work on the site of the work. The use of such supplier and equipment shall be considered as Extra Work and paid for accordingly. 1.06 COOPERATION The Town, or other contractors performing work on behalf of the Town, shall be at liberty to enter upon the site of the work with workmen and materials to do work, and the Contractor shall afford any such workmen all reasonable facilities and cooperation to the satisfaction of the Owner’s Representative. The Contractor shall arrange his work and dispose of his materials in such a manner as will not interfere with work or storage of materials of the Town or of others upon the site of the work. The Contractor shall make good any injury or damage that may be sustained by other Contractors or employees of the Town at his hands. The Contractor shall join his work to that of others and perform his work in proper sequence in relation to that of others to the satisfaction of the Owner’s Representative. The Contractor shall plan for reasonable alternative measures which could be implemented to accommodate possible concurrent construction of other portions of the scope of work by the Town. Any difference or conflict arising between the Contractor and any other Contractor employed by the Town, or between the Contractor and the workmen of the Town with regard to their work, shall be submitted to the Owner’s Representative and the Contractor shall abide by his decision in the matter. If the work of the Contractor is delayed because of any facts or omissions of any other Contractor or of the Town, the Contractor shall on that account have no claim against the Town other than for an extension of time. 1.07 ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT The Contract shall not be assigned in whole or in part without the written consent of the Owner’s Representative and Town Attorney. Consent will not be given to any proposed assignment which would relieve the original Contractor or his surety of their responsibilities under the contract nor will the Owner’s Representative consent to any assignment of a part of the work under the con- tract. 00400-2 ---PAGE BREAK--- 1.08 SUBCONTRACTS The Contractor shall be responsible for all work performed by Subcontractors. No Subcontractor will be recognized as such, and all persons engaged in the Work will be considered as employees of the Contractor, and their work shall be subject to the provisions of the Contract. When it is stated in the contract documents that a manufacturer, supplier, or any other person other than the Contractor, the Town or the Owner’s Representative shall do something, it means that the Contractor shall cause such person to do that thing. The Contractor shall perform a minimum of thirty (30) percent of the Work with its own forces without subcontracting). The thirty (30) percent requirement shall be understood to refer to the Work, the value of which totals not less than thirty (30) percent of the Contract Price. 1.09 CONTRACTOR'S EMPLOYEES AND SUBCONTRACTORS The Contractor shall at all times be responsible for the adequacy, efficiency, and sufficiency of his employees and any Subcontractor or persons employed by the Subcontractors. All workmen must have sufficient knowledge, skill, and experience to perform properly the work assigned to them. Contractor agrees and understands that the contractor must comply with the Colorado State “Illegal aliens – contracts for service” as set forth in CRS 8-17.5-101 and that the contractor shall not violate those provisions of CRS 8-17.5-102. Contractor shall complete and sign the required “Certification Statement Regarding Illegal Aliens” and “Immigration Status Affidavit” included in Section 00300 of this document prior to issuance of the Notice to Proceed by the Town. Contractor shall complete and sign the “Affidavit – Restriction of Public Benefits” form included in Section 00300 of this document prior to issuance of the Notice to Proceed by the Town. 1.10 ATTENTION TO WORK The Contractor shall give his personal attention to and shall supervise the work to the end that it shall be prosecuted faithfully, and when he is not personally present on the work, he shall at all reasonable times be represented by a competent superintendent who shall receive and obey all instructions or orders given under the Contract, and who shall have full authority to execute the same, and to supply materials, tools and labor without delay, and who shall be liable for the faithful observance of any instructions delivered to him or to his authorized representative. The Contractor shall designate in writing the superintendent at the work site before work begins and shall include the following information: name of person, authority, supervisor, and how to contact and/or locate this person (including a 24-hour phone number). 1.11 SERVICE OF NOTICES Any notice, order, direction, request or other communication given by the Town to the Contractor under the Contract shall be deemed to be well and sufficiently given to the Contractor if left at any office used by the Contractor, or delivered to the Contractor's designated superintendent on the site of the work, or mailed in any post office addressed to the Contractor at the address mentioned in the contract, or at the Contractor's last known place of business, and if mailed, shall be deemed to have been given to and received by the Contractor a day after the day of mailing in any post office in the vicinity of the work. 00400-3 ---PAGE BREAK--- 1.12 DEVIATION FROM CONTRACT The Contractor shall not make any alteration or variation in or addition to or deviation or omission from the terms of this Contract without the written consent of the Town. 1.13 SUGGESTIONS TO CONTRACTOR Any plan or method of work suggested by the Town or the Owner’s Representative to the Contractor but not specified or required, if adopted or followed by the Contractor in whole or in part, shall be used at the risk and responsibility of the Contractor; and the Town and the Owner’s Representative shall assume no responsibility therefor and in no way be held liable for any defects in the work which may result from or be caused by use of such plan or method of work. Acceptance by the Contractor of any plan or method of work or change suggested by the Town shall not relieve the Contractor from any other requirements or provisions of the contract. 1.14 JOINT VENTURE CONTRACTOR In the event the Contractor is a joint venture of two or more Contractors, all grants, covenants, provisos and claims, rights, power, privileges, and liabilities of the contract shall be construed and held to be several as well as joint; any notice, order, direction, request or other communication required to be or that may be given by the Town or Owner’s Representative to the Contractor under this agreement shall be well and sufficiently given to all persons being the Contractor if given to any one or more of such persons; any notice, request or other communication given by any one of such persons to the Town or the Owner’s Representative under this agreement shall be deemed to have been given by and shall bind all persons being the Contractor. 1.15 WAIVER OF RIGHTS BY TOWN No action or want of action on the part of the Town at any time to exercise any right or remedies conferred upon it under this contract shall be deemed to be a waiver on the part of the Town of any rights or remedies. 1.16 TOWN'S RIGHT TO DO WORK Town reserves the right to let other contracts in connection with this work. Contractor shall afford other contractors reasonable opportunities for introduction and storage of their materials and execution of their work and shall properly connect and coordinate his work with theirs. If any part of Contractor's work depends on proper execution or results upon work of any other contractor, the Contractor shall inspect and report to the Owner’s Representative any defects in such work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. His failure to inspect and report shall constitute his acceptance of other contractor's work as fit and proper for reception of his work, except as to defects which may develop in other contractor's work after execution of his work. To ensure proper execution of his subsequent work, Contractor shall measure and inspect work already in place and shall at once report to the Owner’s Representative any discrepancy between executed work and contract documents. Contractor shall ascertain to his own satisfaction the scope of the project and nature of any other contracts that have been or may be awarded by Town in prosecution of the project to the end that Contractor may perform this contract in the light of such other contracts, if any. Nothing herein contained shall be interpreted as granting to Contractor exclusive occupancy at site of project. Contractor shall not cause any unnecessary hindrance or delay to any other Contractor working on the project. If simultaneous execution of 00400-4 ---PAGE BREAK--- any contract for the project is likely to cause interference with performance of some other contract or contracts, Town shall decide which Contractor shall cease work temporarily and which Contractor then shall continue or whether work can be coordinated so that the Contractors may proceed simultaneously. 1.17 RIGHT TO AUDIT Before the issuance of the appropriate acceptance notice or notice of termination and for 3 years thereafter, the Contractor and its subcontractors shall keep adequate books, records, receipts, vouchers, and other documentation pertaining to the Work under this Contract. The Town and its designees shall have access during normal working hours to such documentation for the purpose of verifying its accuracy of charges to the Town and for all other reasonable purposes. Such access shall include the right to discuss the documentation with Contractor's personnel having knowledge of its contents and the right to copy the documentation at the Town's expense. The Contractor shall make appropriate adjustments to its documentation and shall reimburse the Town for all overpayments made by the Contractor and brought to the Contractor's attention. If the Contractor refuses to provide such audit access, any cost in dispute shall not be allowed, but will be deemed to be included in Contractor's Bid.

In general, the work performed shall be in full conformity and harmony with the intent to secure the best standard of construction and equipment of the work as a whole or in part. 00400-5 ---PAGE BREAK--- 2.03 MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT SPECIFIED BY NAME Whenever any material or equipment is specified by patent or proprietary name or by the name and/or model number of one or more manufacturers, and is followed by the words "or approved equal", such specifications shall be considered as used for the purpose of describing the quality, appearance, performance and finish of the material or equipment desired. Whenever any material or equipment is specified by patent or proprietary name or by the name of one or more manufacturers, and the words "or approved equal" do not appear, such material or equipment shall be so specified for the purpose of standardization with existing equipment or materials or has no known equal. 2.04 SUBSTITUTION OF MATERIAL OR EQUIPMENT The Contractor may offer material or equipment with equal or better qualities and performance in substitution for those specified which he considers would be in the Town's interest to accept. No offers for substitution will be acknowledged or considered from suppliers, distributors, manufacturers or subcontractors. The Contractor shall submit sufficient data which, together with any other data the Owner’s Representative may require, will enable the Owner’s Representative to assess the acceptability of the material or equipment. The burden of proof as to the quality, suitability and equality of the substitute equipment or material, and the expense therefore, shall be entirely upon the Contractor. The Owner’s Representative will be the sole judge as to the comparative quality and suitability of such substitute equipment or material and the decision so rendered will be final. Acceptance of any offer of substitute material or equipment will be done so only in writing from the Owner’s Representative. Such acceptance by the Owner’s Representative shall not relieve the Contractor from compliance with all other requirements of the Contract documents nor from full responsibility for the efficiency, sufficiency, quality, and performance of the substitute material or equipment, in the same manner and degree as the material and equipment specified by name. When the substitute equipment or material necessitates changes to or coordination with any other portion of the work, the data submitted shall include drawings and details showing all such changes. If ultimately accepted, the Contractor shall bear the expense of any redesign, drawing or specification preparation necessary to incorporate the substitute material or equipment into the work and shall be responsible for all costs directly and indirectly associated with actually providing the substitute items including changes to other parts of the work and testing of equipment. The Contractor's failure to submit data substantiating a request for a substitution of an "or equal" item within the specified period after the award of the contract shall be deemed to mean that the Contractor intends to furnish one of the specific brand-named products named in the specif- ications, and that the Contractor does hereby waive all rights to offer or use substitute products in each such case. Whenever a proposed substitute product has not been submitted within the specified period or whenever the submission of a proposed substitute product fails to meet the requirements of the specifications and an acceptable resubmittal is not received by the Manager within the specified period, the Contractor shall furnish only the product originally named in the specifications. 2.05 SAMPLES AND TESTS OF MATERIALS In the case of materials to be supplied by the Contractor, samples shall, if and when required by the specifications or the Owner’s Representative, be prepared and submitted by the Contractor for checking. The samples or test specimens shall be prepared and furnished with information as to 00400-6 ---PAGE BREAK--- their source in such quantities and sizes as may be required for proper examinations and tests, with all freight charges prepaid. All samples shall be submitted before shipment of the material to the site of the work and in ample time to permit the making of proper tests, analyses, examinations, rejections, and resubmissions before the time at which it is desired to incorporate the material into the work. All tests of materials furnished by the Contractor will be made by the Owner’s Representative in accordance with recognized standard practice. No such materials shall be used in the work unless or until they have been accepted in writing by the Owner’s Representative, and samples of materials will be retained by the Owner’s Representative for reference and comparison purposes. The cost of material inspection and testing in the vicinity of the work unless specified otherwise herein will be borne by the Town. If the inspection and testing of materials in the vicinity of the work is not practicable, the Contractor may request such inspection and testing take place at the point of manufacture. In such an event the additional cost to the Town of remote inspection and testing shall be charged to the Contractor. Such additional costs will consist essentially of reim- bursement for travel time and expense to and from the remote point. 2.06 PROOF OF COMPLIANCE WITH CONTRACT In order that the Owner’s Representative may determine whether the Contractor has complied with the requirements of the contract documents not readily determinable through inspection and tests of supplier, equipment, work, or materials, the Contractor shall at any time when requested, submit to the Owner’s Representative properly authenticated documents or other satisfactory proofs as to his compliance with such requirements. 2.07 STORAGE OF MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT Materials and equipment shall be stored so as to insure the preservation of their quality and fitness for the work. Equipment shall only be stored in the Contractor's work area shown on the plans and shall not be stored in public rights of way, streets, or sidewalks or on property without the permission of the Owner. Stored equipment and materials shall be located so as to facilitate inspection. The Contractor shall be responsible for all damages that occur to materials and equip- ment until the completion and final acceptance of the work by the Town. 2.08 MANUFACTURER'S DIRECTIONS Manufactured articles, material and equipment shall be applied, installed, connected, erected, adjusted, tested, used, cleaned, and conditioned as directed by the manufacturer unless specified to the contrary. 2.09 DEFECTIVE MATERIAL, EQUIPMENT, AND WORKMANSHIP When and as often as the Owner’s Representative is not satisfied with the work done or being done under the contract, or with the kind of quality of materials or equipment supplied in connection therewith, he may give notice of his dissatisfaction to the Contractor in writing, and the Contractor shall immediately upon receipt of such notice do all things required to satisfy the Owner’s Representative. Should the Contractor refuse or neglect to so satisfy the Owner’s Representative within the space of 5 days from the receipt of such notice, the Town may employ some other person to do or may himself do all things required to obtain such satisfaction, and for such purpose may use or allow the use of the Contractor's supplier and equipment and all expenses and costs subsequent thereto shall be charged to the Contractor; provided, however, that the employment of such other person or the doing of the work by the Owner himself shall in no way affect the Contractor's duties and liabilities hereunder, nor in any way relieve him from the 00400-7 ---PAGE BREAK--- performance and fulfillment of any or all of his covenants, undertakings, obligations, and duties under the contract. The fact that the Owner’s Representative has not disapproved or rejected any part of the work or any of the materials or equipment supplied in connection therewith at the time any progress payment estimate is made hereunder, or at any other time during the continuance of the contract shall not be deemed to be construed to be an acceptance of any such part of the work or any such materials. 2.10 RETENTION OF DEFECTIVE OR NON-CONFORMING WORK If, in the opinion of the Owner’s Representative, the defective or non-conforming work is not of sufficient magnitude or importance to make the work dangerous or undesirable, or if, in the opinion of the Owner’s Representative, the removal of such work is impractical or will create conditions which are dangerous or undesirable, the Town shall have the right and authority to retain such work instead of requiring it to be removed or reconstructed, but will make such deduction therefore in the payments due or to become due to the Contractor as he may deem just and reasonable. 2.11 MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT TO BE FURNISHED BY TOWN Materials and equipment specifically indicated may be furnished by the Town and shall be installed by the Contractor. The fact that the Town is to furnish material and equipment will be considered conclusive evidence of its acceptability for the purpose intended and the Contractor may continue to use it until otherwise directed. If the Contractor discovers any defect in material and equipment furnished by the Town, he shall notify the Owner’s Representative. Any work done after such discovery, until authorized, will be done at the Contractor's risk. Unless otherwise noted or specifically stated, materials and equipment furnished by the Town which are not of local occurrence are considered to be F.O.B. the nearest railroad station or truck terminal. The Contractor shall be prepared to unload and properly protect all such material and equipment from damage or loss. Such material and equipment after receipt at the point of delivery shall form part of the work for all purposes of the contract as if it had been supplied by the Contractor himself. 2.12 GUARANTEE All work performed and equipment or material furnished shall be guaranteed for ten (10) years from date of acceptance against any inherent or developed defects of material or workmanship in manufacture or installation. The Contractor shall execute the Guarantee form included with the Contract. Upon receipt of notice in writing from the Town, the Contractor shall make all repairs arising out of defective materials, or workmanship, or equipment. The Town is hereby authorized to make such repairs if, 10 days after the giving such notice to the Contractor, the Contractor has failed to make or undertake with due diligence the repairs; provided, however, that in the case of an emergency, where, in the opinion of the Town, delay could cause serious loss or damage, repairs may be made without notice being sent to the Contractor, and all expense in connection therewith shall be charged to the Contractor. All guarantees normally provided by manufacturers of equipment or material installed under this project shall be furnished to the Town of Monument and shall remain in force for their normal life. Prior to the expiration of the warranty, the Town will make visual inspection of the project to determine whether correction of any of the work is required. The Contractor shall attend such inspection if requested by the Town. The cost of such inspection shall be included in the bid price and no additional cost shall be paid to the Contractor. 00400-8 ---PAGE BREAK--- If within the warranty period or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by law or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Documents or by any specific provision of the Contract Documents, any defective work is found, Contractor shall without cost to Town and in accordance with Town’s written instructions, either correct such defective work, or, if it has been rejected by Town, remove it from the site and replace it with non- defective work. If Contractor does not comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, Town may have the defective work corrected or the rejected work removed and replaced, and all direct and indirect costs of such removal and replacement, including compensation for additional professional services, shall be paid by Contractor. Contractor shall also pay for any damage done to other work, other property or persons which occurred as a result of the defective work within the correction period. PART 3 - LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY AND INSURANCE 3.01 RESPONSIBILITY OF CONTRACTOR The work shall be under the Contractor's responsible care and charge. The Contractor shall bear all loss and damage whatsoever and from whatsoever cause, except that caused solely by the negligent act of the Town which may occur on or to the work during the fulfillment of the con- tract. If any loss or damage occurs, the Contractor shall immediately make good any such loss or damage, and in the event of the Contractor refusing or neglecting to do so, the Town may itself or by the employment of some other person make good any such loss or damage, and the cost and expense of so doing shall be charged to the Contractor. The mention of any specific responsibility or liability imposed upon the Contractor shall not be construed as a limitation or restriction of any general liability or duty imposed upon the Contractor by the contract, the reference to any specific duty or liability being made herein merely for the purpose of explanation. The Contractor alone shall at all times be responsible for the safety of the job site, his and his Subcontractor's or Supplier’s employees, and for his and his Subcontractor's or Supplier’s supplier and equipment and the method of prosecuting the work. 3.02 LIABILITY OF CONTRACTOR The Contractor shall be liable for all damages and injury which shall be caused to owners of property on or in the vicinity of the work or which shall occur to any person or persons or property whatsoever arising out of the performance of this contract whether or not such damage or injury be caused by the negligence of the Contractor and whether or not such damage or injury be caused by the inherent nature of the work as specified.

In case any suit or legal proceedings shall be brought against the Town or their subconsultants, or any of their officers, principals, agents or employees on account of loss or damage sustained by any person or property as a result of the performance of the work covered by this contract, whether or not such injuries or damage be due to the negligence of the Contractor and whether or not such injuries or damage be caused by the inherent nature of the work as specified, the Contractor agrees to assume the defense thereof and to pay all expenses connected therewith and all judgments that may be obtained against the Town or their subconsultants or any of their officers, principals, 00400-9 ---PAGE BREAK--- agents or employees in such suits, and in the event that any lien is placed upon the property of the Town or their subconsultants or any of their officers, principal’s agents or employees, as a result of such suits, the Contractor agrees to at once cause the same to be dissolved and discharged by giving bond or otherwise. 3.03 LAWS, REGULATIONS AND PERMITS The Contractor shall give all notices required by law and comply with all laws, ordinances, rules and regulations pertaining to the conduct of the work. The Contractor shall be liable for all violations of the law in connection with work furnished by the Contractor. If the Contractor observes that the drawings or specifications are at variance with any law, ordinance, rule or regulation, he shall notify the Town in writing and any necessary changes shall be made by instruction or change order. If the Contractor performs any work knowing to be contrary to such laws, ordinances, rules and regulations and without giving notice to the Owner’s Representative, the Contractor shall bear all costs arising therefrom. Unless otherwise specified herein, permits and licenses which are necessary only for and during the prosecution of the work and the subsequent guaranty period thereafter shall be secured and paid for by the Contractor while those permits and licenses of regulatory agencies which are necessary to be maintained after the completion of the guaranty period of the contract will be secured and paid for by the Town.

No road or street shall be closed to the public except with the permission of the Owner’s Representative. Fire hydrants on or adjacent to the work shall be kept accessible to fire fighting equipment at all times. Temporary provisions shall be made by the Contractor to insure the use of sidewalks and private and public driveways, and the proper functioning of all gutters, sewer inlets, drainage ditches and culverts, irrigation ditches and natural water courses. The Contractor shall leave a night emergency telephone number or numbers with the Monument Police Department, so that contact may be made easily at all times in case of trouble or emergencies. 3.05 CONTRACTOR’S LIABILITY INSURANCE Contractor shall purchase from and maintain in a company or companies lawfully authorized to do business in Colorado such insurance as will protect the Contractor, any subcontractors, any suppliers, the Town, including any officer, employee or agent of the Town from claims set forth below which may arise out of or result from the Contractor's operations under the Contract whether such operations be by the Contractor or by a Subcontractor or by anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or by anyone for whose acts any of them may be liable: 00400-10 ---PAGE BREAK--- Claims under workers' or workmens' compensation, disability benefit and other similar employee benefit acts which are applicable to the Work to be performed; Claims for damages because of bodily injury, occupational sickness or disease, or death of the Contractor's employees; Claims for damages because of bodily injury, sickness or disease, or death of any person other than the Contractor's employees; Claims for damages insured by usual personal injury liability coverage which are sustained by a person as a result of an offense directly or indirectly related to employment of such person by the Contractor, or by another person; Claims for damages, other than to the Work itself, because of injury to or destruction of tangible property, including loss of use resulting therefrom; Claims for damages because of bodily injury, death of a person or property damage arising out of ownership, maintenance or use of a motor vehicle; and Claims involving contractual liability insurance applicable to the Contractor's obligations.

The Contractor shall, upon demand of the Town, deliver to the Town all such policy or policies of insurance and the receipts for payment of premiums thereon; and should the Contractor neglect to obtain and maintain in force any such insurance or deliver such policy or policies and receipts to the Town, then it shall be lawful for the Town to obtain and maintain such insurance, and the Contractor hereby appoints the Town his true and lawful attorney to do all things necessary for this purpose. All money expended by the Town for insurance premiums under the provisions of this article shall be charged to the Contractor. PART 4 - PROGRESS AND COMPLETION 4.01 TIME OF COMPLETION Time is of the essence in completion of the work. The Contractor shall complete all the work in the contract within the time period set forth in Section 01015, CONTRACT TIME. 4.02 ACCEPTANCE OF THE WORK AND NOTICE OF COMPLETION Whenever the Contractor shall, in the opinion of the Owner’s Representative, have completed his contract, the Owner’s Representative shall so certify in writing and shall make a final estimate of the amount of the work done by the Contractor and also the value of his work according to the terms of the contract. The date of the Owner’s Representative's certification shall constitute the Date of Final Completion. Subsequent acceptance of the work by the Town shall constitute the date of Final Acceptance (used to start the warranty period). Immediately after Final Acceptance the Town shall file a Notice of Completion. 4.03 UNFAVORABLE WEATHER AND OTHER CONDITIONS During unfavorable weather and other conditions, the Contractor shall pursue only such portions of the work as shall not be damaged thereby. No portions of the work, satisfactory quality or efficiency of which will be affected by any unfavorable conditions, shall be constructed while those conditions remain, unless by special means or precautions acceptable to the Owner’s Representative, the Contractor shall be able to overcome them. 00400-12 ---PAGE BREAK--- 4.04 TEMPORARY SUSPENSION OF WORK In the event the Owner’s Representative shall determine that the work is not proceeding in accordance with the plans and specifications or any applicable rules and regulations, the Owner’s Representative may order the cessation of further work until the work proceeds in compliance with such requirements. All delays occasioned by such stoppage shall not relieve the Contractor of any duty to perform the work or serve to extend the time for its completion. Any and all necessary corrective work done in order to comply with the plans and specifications shall be done at no cost to the Town. In the event that a suspension of work is ordered as provided in this Article, the Contractor, at his expense, shall do all work necessary to provide a safe, smooth and unobstructed passageway through construction for use by public, pedestrian, and vehicular traffic, during the period of such suspension.

Upon receiving notice of such termination, the Contractor shall discontinue said work, or such parts of it as the Town may designate. Upon such suspension, the Contractor's control shall terminate and thereupon the Town , or its duly authorized representative, may take possession of all or any part of the Contractor's materials, tools, equipment, and appliances upon the premises, and use the same for the purpose of completing said work, and hire such force and buy or rent such additional material and supplies at the Contractor's expense as may be necessary for the proper conduct of the work and for the completion thereof; or may employ other parties to carry the contract to completion, employ the necessary workmen, substitute other machinery or materials and purchase the materials contracted for, in such manner as the Town may deem proper, or the Town may annul and cancel the contract and relet the work or any part thereof. Any excess of cost arising therefrom over and above the contract price will be charged against the Contractor and his sureties, who will be liable therefor. In the event of such suspension, all money due the Contractor or retained under the terms of this contract shall be forfeited to the Town; but such forfeiture will not release the Contractor or his sureties from liability or failure to fulfill the contract. The Contractor and his sureties will be credited with the amount of money so forfeited toward any excess of cost over and above the contract price, arising from the suspension of the operations of the contract and the completion of the work by the Town as above provided, and the Contractor will be so credited with any surplus remaining after all just claims for such completion have been paid. In the determination of the question whether there has been any such noncompliance with the contract as to warrant the suspension or annulment thereof, the decision of the Town shall be binding on all parties to the contract. 00400-13 ---PAGE BREAK--- 4.06 TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE The Town may at any time terminate the Contract for its convenience, without prejudice, upon written notice to the Contractor. Upon receiving notice of such termination, the Contractor shall discontinue all Work, or such parts of it as the Town may designate. The Town will compensate the Contractor for all Work completed or partially completed at the time of receipt by the Contractor of the notice to terminate. PART 5 - MEASUREMENT AND PAYMENT 5.01 SCOPE OF PAYMENT The Contractor shall accept the compensation, as herein provided, as full payment for furnishing all labor, materials, tools, equipment and incidentals necessary to the completed work and for performing all work contemplated and embraced under the contract; also for loss or damage arising from the nature of work, or from the action of the elements, or from any unforeseen difficulties which may be encountered during the prosecution of the work, also for all expenses incurred in consequence of the suspension or discontinuance of the work as herein specified; and for completing the work according to plans and specifications. Neither the payment of any estimate nor of any retained percentage shall relieve the Contractor of any obligation to make good any defective work or materials. No compensation will be made in case of loss of anticipated profits. Increased or decreased work involving supplemental agreements will be paid for as provided in such agreements. 5.02 PAYMENT FOR LABOR AND MATERIALS The Contractor shall pay and cause his Subcontractors to pay all accounts for labor including workmen's compensation premiums, state unemployment, and Federal social security payments and all other wage and salary deductions required by law, services and material used by him and his Subcontractors during the fulfillment of the contract as and when such accounts become due and payable, and shall furnish the Town with proof of payment of such accounts in such form and as often as the Town may request.

The breakdowns shall indicate the specific materials and the price paid; labor hours, wages, and fringe benefits; equipment rental including types of equipment and rental rates; and amount for overhead and profit. If requested by the Town, this information must be submitted prior to issuance of any change order. 00400-15 ---PAGE BREAK--- 3.

Actual necessary expense shall consist of the following. a. Materials and Equipment: Materials and equipment furnished by the Contractor and accepted by the Owner’s Representative and necessarily used in the work shall include applicable taxes, transportation and discounts whether taken by the purchaser or not.

Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly for labor, materials, equipment, or other facilities, or to Subcontractors and/or suppliers; A reasonable doubt that the work can be completed for the balance then unearned; and A reasonable doubt that the Contractor will complete the work within the agreed time limits. If the Contractor fails to adhere to the accepted construction schedule as modified by any extension of time, this shall be considered as a reasonable doubt that the Contractor will complete the work within the agreed time limits, the Town may withhold from the Contractor the amount set forth in Section 00500, SUPPLEMENTARY CONDITIONS, for each day he is behind schedule as of each progress payment date. When the Contractor regains adherence to the accepted construction schedule, amounts so withheld will be released and paid to the Contractor. 5.06 FINAL PAYMENT The payment due the Contractor for work performed and materials furnished shall be determined from the final measurements made by the Town and the prices bid by the Contractor, including such extra work as may have been properly authorized. All prior partial quantities and payments shall be subject to correction in the final payment, and no payment shall be construed to be an acceptance of any defective work or improper materials. From the total amount of the work, a deduction of 10% will be made and from the remainder will be deducted all amounts due to the Town from the Contractor in accordance with the terms of the contract. From the balance thus determined, there shall be deducted the total amount of all previous payments made to the Contractor and the remainder shall be the amount to be paid to the Contractor immediately following acceptance of the work by the Town.
