CHANGES IN THE WORK

Changes in the Work which are within the general scope of this Agreement may be accomplished, without invalidating this Agreement, by Change Order, Work Change Directive, or a minor change in the work, subject to the limitations stated in the Contract Documents.

9.1 CHANGE ORDER

9.1.1 The Design-Builder may request and/or the Owner, without invalidating this Agreement, may order changes in the Work within the general scope of the Contract Documents consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions to the GMP or the estimated cost of the work, compensation for Design Phase Services, the Design-Builder’s Fee and/or the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion being adjusted accordingly. All such changes in the Work shall be authorized by applicable Change Order, and shall be performed under the applicable conditions of the Contract Documents.

9.1.2 Each adjustment in the GMP and/or estimated Cost of the Work resulting from a Change Order shall clearly separate the amount attributable to compensation for Design Phase Services, other Cost of the Work and the Design-Builder’s Fee, with the Design-Builder’s Fee not to exceed ten percent (10%).

9.1.3 The Owner and the Design-Builder shall negotiate in good faith an appropriate adjustment to the GMP or the estimated Cost of the Work, compensation for Design Phase Services, the Design-Builder’s Fee and/or the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion and shall conclude these negotiations as expeditiously as possible. Acceptance of the Change Order and any adjustment in the GMP, the estimated Cost of the Work, compensation for Design Phase Services, the Design-Builder’s Fee and/or the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion shall not be unreasonably withheld.

9.2 WORK CHANGE DIRECTIVES

9.2.1 The Owner may issue a written Work Change Directive directing a change in the Work prior to reaching agreement with the Design-Builder on the adjustment, if any, in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate, the compensation for Design Phase Services.

21

9.2.2 The Owner and the Design-Builder shall negotiate expeditiously and in good faith for appropriate adjustments, as applicable, to the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, arising out of Work Change Directives. As the changed work is completed, the Design Builder shall submit its costs for such work with its application for payment beginning with the next application for payment within thirty (30) days of the issuance of the Work Change Directive. Pending final determination of cost to the Owner, amounts not in dispute may be included in applications for payment and shall be paid by Owner.

9.2.3 If the Owner and the Design-Builder agree upon the adjustments in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, for a change in the Work directed by a Work Change Directive, such agreement shall be the subject of an appropriate Change Order. The Change Order shall include all outstanding Change Directives issued since the last Change Order.

9.3 MINOR CHANGES IN THE WORK

9.3.1 The Design-Builder may make minor changes in the design and construction of the Project consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents which do not involve an adjustment in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and do not materially and adversely affect the design of the Project, the quality of any of the materials or equipment specified in the Contract Documents, the performance of any materials, equipment or systems specified in the Contract Documents, or the quality of workmanship required by the Contract Documents.

9.3.2 The Design-Builder shall promptly inform the Owner in writing of any such changes and shall record such changes on the Design-Build Documents maintained by the Design-Builder.

9.4 UNKNOWN CONDITIONS. If in the performance of the Work the Design-Builder finds latent, concealed or subsurface physical conditions which materially differ from the conditions the Design-Builder reasonably anticipated, or if physical conditions are materially different from those normally encountered and generally recognized as inherent in the kind of work provided for in this Agreement, then the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, shall be equitably adjusted by Change Order within a reasonable time after the conditions are first observed. The Design-Builder shall provide the Owner with written notice within the time period set forth in Paragraph 9.6.

9.5 DETERMINATION OF COST

9.5.1 An increase or decrease in the GMP and/or estimated Cost of the Work resulting from a change in the Work shall be determined by one or more of the following methods:

.1 unit prices set forth in this Agreement or as subsequently agreed;

.2 a mutually accepted, itemized lump sum;

.3  costs determined as defined in Paragraph 7.2 and Article 8 and a mutually acceptable Design-Builder’s Fee as determined in Subparagraph 7.4.1; or

.4  if an increase or decrease cannot be agreed to as set forth in Clauses 9.5.1.1 through 9.5.1.3 above, and the Owner issues a Work Change Directive, the cost of the change in the Work shall be determined by the reasonable actual expense and savings of the performance

22

of the Work resulting from the change. If there is a net increase in the GMP, the Design-Builder’s Fee shall be adjusted as set forth in Subparagraph 7.4.1. In case of a net decrease in the GMP, the Design-Builder’s Fee shall not be adjusted unless ten percent (10%) or more of the Project is deleted. The Design-Builder shall maintain a documented, itemized accounting evidencing the expenses and savings.

9.5.2 If unit prices are indicated in the Contract Documents or are subsequently agreed to by the parties, but the character or quantity of such unit items as originally contemplated is so different in a proposed Change Order that the original unit prices will cause substantial inequity to the Owner or the Design-Builder, such unit prices shall be equitably adjusted.

9.5.3 If the Owner and the Design-Builder disagree as to whether work required by the Owner is within the scope of the Work, the Design-Builder shall furnish the Owner with an estimate of the costs to perform the disputed work in accordance with the Owner’s interpretations. If the Owner issues a written order for the Design-Builder to proceed, the Design-Builder shall perform the disputed work and the Owner shall pay the Design-Builder fifty percent (50%) of its estimated cost to perform the work. In such event, both parties reserve their rights as to whether the work was within the scope of the Work. The Owner’s payment does not prejudice its right to be reimbursed should it be determined that the disputed work was within the scope of Work. The Design-Builder’s receipt of payment for the disputed work does not prejudice its right to receive full payment for the disputed work should it be determined that the disputed work is not within the scope of the Work.

9.6 CLAIMS FOR ADDITIONAL COST OR TIME. For any claim for an increase in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee and the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, the Design-Builder shall give the Owner written notice of the claim within twenty-one (21) days after the occurrence giving rise to the claim or within twenty-one (21) days after the Design-Builder first recognizes the condition giving rise to the claim, whichever is later. Except in an emergency, notice shall be given before proceeding with the Work. Claims for design and estimating costs incurred in connection with possible changes requested by the Owner, but which do not proceed, shall be made within twenty-one (21) days after the decision is made not to proceed. Any change in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, resulting from such claim shall be authorized by Change Order.

9.7 EMERGENCIES. In any emergency affecting the safety of persons and/or property, the Design-Builder shall act, at its discretion, to prevent threatened damage, injury or loss. Any change in the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, on account of emergency work shall be determined as provided in this Article.

9.8 CHANGES IN LAW. In the event any changes in laws or regulations affecting the performance of the Work are enacted after either the date of this Agreement or the date a GMP Proposal is accepted by the Owner and set forth in Amendment No. 1 to this Agreement, whichever occurs later, the GMP, estimated Cost of the Work, the Design-Builder’s Fee, the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and if appropriate the compensation for Design Phase Services, shall be equitably adjusted by Change Order.

10.1.6 The Owner’s progress payment, occupancy or use of the Project, whether in whole or in part, shall not be deemed an acceptance of any Work not conforming to the requirements of the Contract Documents.

10.1.7 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work, the Owner shall pay the Design-Builder the unpaid balance of the Cost of the Work, compensation for Design Phase Services and the Design-Builder’s Fee, less one-hundred-fifty percent (150%) of the cost of completing any unfinished items as agreed to between the Owner and the Design-Builder as to extent and time for completion. The Owner thereafter shall pay the Design-Builder monthly the amount retained for unfinished items as each item is completed.

10.2 RETAINAGE. From each progress payment made prior to the time Substantial Completion of the Work has been reached, the Owner shall retain five percent (5%), if required, of the amount otherwise due after deduction of any amounts as provided in Paragraph 10.3 of this Agreement. If the Owner

24

chooses to use this retainage provision:

.1 at the time the Work is fifty percent (50%) complete and thereafter, the Owner may choose to withhold no more retainage and pay the Design-Builder the full amount of what is due on account of subsequent progress payments;

.2 once each early finishing trade Subcontractor has completed its work and that work has been accepted by the Owner, the Owner may release final retention on such work;

.3 in lieu of retainage, the Design-Builder may furnish securities, acceptable to the Owner, to be held by the Owner. The interest on such securities shall accrue to the Design-Builder;

.4 the Owner may, in its sole discretion, reduce the amount to be retained at any time.

10.3 ADJUSTMENT OF DESIGN-BUILDER’S APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT The Owner may adjust or reject an application for payment or nullify a previously approved Design-Builder application for payment, in whole or in part, as may reasonably be necessary to protect the Owner from loss or damage based upon the following, to the extent that the Design-Builder is responsible under this Agreement:

.1 the Design-Builder’s repeated failure to perform the Work as required by the Contract Documents;

.2 loss or damage arising out of or relating to this Agreement and caused by the Design-Builder to the Owner or Others to whom the Owner may be liable;

.3 the Design-Builder’s failure to properly pay the Architect/Engineer, Subcontractors or Material Suppliers for labor, materials, equipment or supplies furnished in connection with the Work, provided that the Owner is making payments to the Design-Builder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement;

.4 Defective Work not corrected in a timely fashion;

.5 reasonable evidence of delay in performance of the Work such that the Work will not be completed by the Date of Substantial Completion and/or the Date of Final Completion, and that the unpaid balance of the GMP is not sufficient to offset any direct damages that may be sustained by the Owner as a result of the anticipated delay caused by the Design-Builder; and

.6 reasonable evidence demonstrating that the unpaid balance of the GMP is insufficient to fund the cost to complete the Work.

The Owner shall give written notice to the Design-Builder at the time of disapproving or nullifying all or part of an application for payment of the specific reasons. When the above reasons for disapproving or nullifying an application for payment are removed, payment will be made for the amount previously withheld.

10.4 OWNER OCCUPANCY OR USE OF COMPLETED OR PARTIALLY COMPLETED WORK

10.4.1 Portions of the Work that are completed or partially completed may be used or occupied by the Owner when (a) the portion of the Work is designated in a Certificate of Substantial Completion, (b) appropriate insurer(s) and/or sureties consent to the occupancy or use, and (c) appropriate public authorities authorize the occupancy or use. Such partial occupancy or use shall constitute Substantial Completion of that portion of the Work. The Design-Builder shall not unreasonably withhold consent to partial occupancy or use. The Owner shall not unreasonably refuse to accept partial occupancy or use, provided such partial occupancy or use is of value to the Owner.

25

10.5 FINAL PAYMENT

10.5.1 Final Payment, consisting of the unpaid balance of the Cost of the Work, compensation for Design Phase Services and the Design-Builder’s Fee, shall be due and payable when the work is fully completed.

10.5.2 In making final payment the Owner waives all claims except for:

.1 outstanding liens;

.2 improper workmanship or defective materials appearing within one year after the Date of Substantial Completion;

.3 work not in conformance with the Contract Documents; and

.4 terms of any special warranties required by the Contract Documents.
