Page 7

reasonably required by Owner, title insurer, or lenders. Conditional waivers of lien become
unconditional on receipt of the payment which is requested.
B. Failure by Contractor to provide waiver of lien forms as required under this agreement shall not

by any third party if the Claim relates to the subject matter of this contract and (1) May result in a lien

not constitute grounds to withhold payment if Contractor has insurance coverage which would prevent
loss to Owner from the legal Claim made.
C. If Owner withholds any payment under terms of this agreement, Owner will notify Contractor in
writing of the amount being withheld, the reason why payment is withheld, and what must be done to
release the payment otherwise due.
D. Grounds entitling Owner to withhold certain amounts due Contractor under this agreement shall
not relieve Owner of the obligation to pay Contractor other amounts then due and shall not relieve
Owner of the obligation to pay in full when the reason for withholding payment no longer exists.
XXVII. Final Payment
A. Contractor will submit an application for final payment to Owner when the Work has been
completed in compliance with the Contract Documents. If Owner agrees that Work has been completed,
payment is due Contractor for the entire unpaid balance of the contract amount (including any
Retainage).
B. Making of final payment constitutes waiver of all Claims by Owner against Contractor, except:
(1) Outstanding lien Claims or Claims for liens, (2) Claims for Defective Work specifically identified
before the making of final payment, (3) Defects which result from failure by Contractor to perform the
Work in strict accordance with the Contract Documents, (4) Any warranty or guarantee required by the
Contract Documents, (5) Any Claim for which Contractor was specifically given notice before final
payment, and (6) Any right Owner has as a matter of Law.
C. The acceptance of final payment by Contractor shall constitute a release by Contractor of known
Claims against Owner arising out of this contract except those Claims which (1) Have been made in
writing and identified by Contractor as not having been settled at that time, or (2) Are based on fraud or
misconduct by Owner.

Page 8
D. Owner has no obligation to make final payment until unconditional waivers of lien in a form
satisfactory to Owner, lenders and Sureties have been received from Contractor, Subcontractors,
vendors, tradesmen, and all Material Suppliers with lien rights on the Project. Contractor may furnish a
Bond satisfactory to Owner in lieu of waivers of lien.
E. Owner has no obligation to make final payment until all Punch List items have been

H. Any other provision of this agreement notwithstanding, Owner may deduct from the final
payment funds sufficient to cover liquidated damages, mechanics' lien Claims, back charges from Owner
and other Claims made against Contractor on the Project unless Contractor posts a Bond from a licensed
Surety sufficient to guarantee satisfaction of any such Claims.
I. After receipt of an application for final payment and before tender of the final payment, Owner
may accept the Work for occupancy or use while asserting Claims against Contractor disputing the
amount of compensation due Contractor, disputing the quality of the Work, its completion, or its
compliance with the Contract Documents, or any other reason.
XXVIII. Changes in the Work
A. Except as provided elsewhere in this agreement, no change to this contract (including
Modification, clarification, interpretation or correction of the Plans or Specifications) shall be made
without mutual agreement and a written Change Order signed by Contractor and Owner identifying the
change, the cost of the change, and the effect on Project Schedule, if any.

future Laws, codes, ordinances or regulations shall be considered Extra Work.

Contractor shall make an appropriate adjustment in the Contract Completion Date.
E. Other clauses in this agreement notwithstanding, there will be no reduction in the value of the
Work without a written Change Order.
F. No Claim for payment for Extra Work and no Claim for additional time to complete the Work
shall be recognized under this agreement without a written Change Order or a notice of Claim. Failure
by Contractor to assert the right to a written Change Order or a Claim within 30 calendar days after
beginning Work on a change in the Work shall constitute waiver by Contractor of the right to additional
compensation and waiver of the right to additional time to complete a change in the Work. No act or
omission of either Contractor or Owner shall be interpreted as waiver of the Requirement for a written
Change Order or notice of Claim, nor shall any Claim that Owner has been unjustly enriched support a
Claim for a constructive Change Order. The provisions of this paragraph are the essence of this
agreement.
G. Failure of Contractor and Owner to agree on the terms of a Change Order shall be resolved under
the provisions of this agreement which cover Claims and disputes.

Page 9

representative of Owner, or any agency of government, increases costs to Contractor, requires extra time
or changes the Scope of Work, Contractor shall have the right to assert a Claim for such costs or time.
XXX. Notice of Claims
A. No Claim by Contractor shall be considered unless Contractor provides Owner with a notice that
there will be a Claim for additional compensation or an extension of time. This notice of Claim shall be
made no less than 5 Calendar Days after Contractor recognizes or should have recognized that
circumstances exist which support such a Claim. The notice of Claim shall include: (1) The date of the
notice, (2) The date the basis for the Claim was discovered, (3) The circumstances that support the
Claim, and (4) The estimated additional cost to Owner or additional time required to complete the

of this contract.
B. If Owner rejects any proposed Subcontractor or vendor, Contractor shall promptly propose
