The Owner and the Construction Manager agree and acknowledge that the Owner shall suffer substantial damages in the event that the Construction Manager fails to achieve Substantial Completion of any Completion Milestone of the Project or the Project as a whole within the specific Contract Time related thereto. The Owner’s damages are not readily ascertainable as of the date of this Agreement. Therefore, if the Construction Manager fails to (a) achieve Substantial Completion of any Completion Milestone within the applicable Completion Milestone Contract Time and/or (b) achieve Substantial Completion of the entire Project within the Project Contract Time, as each such Contract Time may be adjusted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Contact Documents, the Construction Manager shall be liable to the Owner for liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the amount set forth in Section 2.2.3 of the AIA Document A133 2009 for each day delay caused by the Construction Manager from the expiration of the Grace Period to the date of Substantial Completion of any Completion Milestone within the applicable Completion Milestone Contract Time and/or Substantial Completion of the entire Project within the applicable Project Completion Time, however, the liquidated damages shall not exceed the amount of Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000) per day for each day of delay even if the Construction Manager has failed to achieve Substantial Completion of multiple Completion Milestones concurrently or Completion Milestone(s) and the entire Project concurrently within the applicable Completion Milestone Contract Time and/or Project Contract Time, as applicable
 
§ A.2.3 For any portion of the Work that would not constitute “subdivision improvements” pursuant to Section 713.04, Florida Statutes, the Owner will require time to file mortgages and other security interests, and, as such, the Construction Manager shall not commence any such portion of the Work unless and until it receives a notice to proceed from the Owner or a copy of the recorded notice of commencement.

§ A.2.4 The Contract Documents, as amended by the GMP Amendments to Date (inclusive but not limited to this GMP Amendment 9 and the Change Orders to Date), shall be and remain absolutely and unconditionally subordinate to any mortgage(s) on the property on which the Project is or shall be located, and on any easements to such property, whether already existing or hereafter recorded, including but not limited to the mortgage relating to that certain loan to be provided by Wells Fargo Bank to DTS 2MC Office LLC.   The subordination of the Contract Documents shall require the execution of no further documentation but the Construction Manager agrees to execute any and all reasonable subordination agreements and documents, as and when requested by the Owner.   Further, the Construction Manager hereby confirms that pursuant to Section 5.3 of the General Conditions to the Contract, the Construction Manager has required or shall require each Subcontractor to accept the subordination of its subcontract agreement to the same extent described herein by requiring each such Subcontractor to be bound in the same way that the Construction Manager has agreed to be bound by the Contract Documents.   The parties agree that this provision will be included in all future amendments and the Contractor acknowledges it will be required to subordinate its interest in future Amendments and Change Orders.

§ A.2.5  Section 5.2.1 of the Agreement (A133 -2009) shall be replaced, in its entirety, as follows:
 
The Construction Manager guarantees that the Contract Sum shall not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Price set forth herein.   To the extent that the Cost of Work exceeds the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Construction Manager shall bear such costs in excess of the Guaranteed Maximum Price without reimbursement or additional compensation from the Owner.
 
At the time of final payment pursuant to this Agreement, the Owner and the Construction Manager shall determine the savings, if any, by (a) taking the Guaranteed Maximum Price (b) subtracting therefrom (i) the cost of any and all equipment, materials or Work contracted directly by the Owner, and (ii) the unused balance of the allowances made a part of the GMP and (c) subtracting from such subtotal the Contract Sum due to the Construction Manager at the time of the final payment pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents (the “Savings”). The Owner and Construction Manager agree that Sixty percent (60%) of the Savings shall accrue to the Owner in the form of a deductive Change Order executed at the time of final payment and that Forty percent (40%) of the Savings (the “Incentive”) shall be paid to the Construction Manager by the Owner as part of the final payment when such final payment becomes due to the Construction Manager pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents.

The unused balance of contingencies (including the Contingency) shall be distributed as follows: Twenty-Five Percent (25%) to the Owner in the form of a deductive Change Order executed at the time of final payment and Seventy-Five percent (75%) to the Construction Manager as part of the final payment when such final payment becomes due to the Construction Manager pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents.
