Where equipment has been listed as "no substitute accepted"; the City will accept no alternates to the specified equipment. SECTION H CONTRACT TIME H-1 DEFINITIONS The Contract Time is the period of time allotted in the Contract Documents for completion of the Work and is the number of calendar days elapsing between the date of commencement and the date of Substantial Completion plus additional days assessed for failure to complete punch list items from the Final Inspection in a timely manner and additional weather days beyond what is allotted in the contract. The Date of Commencement of the Work is the date established in the Notice to Proceed. See attachment "A" for a sample Notice to Proceed. The Date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof is the Date certified by the Architect with the approval of the Owner that construction is sufficiently complete, in accordance with the Contract Documents, so the Owner may occupy the Work or designated portion thereof for the use for which it is intended. Final acceptance of the completed work or any portion thereof can be made only by the Owner, and no other form of acceptance will be binding upon the Owner. A Calendar Dav constitutes 24 hours of time and is any one of the seven days of a week, including Sunday, regardless of whether a "Working Day" or not, and regardless of weather conditions or any situation which might delay construction. An extension of contract time shall be in accordance with this Section. Extensions of time will be as recommended by the Architect with final approval by City of Fort Worth. A Working Dav is defined as a calendar day, not including Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays, in which weather or other conditions not under the control of the Contractor permit the performance of work for a continuous period of not less than seven hours between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. However, nothing in these Contract Documents shall be construed as prohibiting the Contractor from working on Saturdays if he so desires. Legal holidays for the City of Fort Worth are defined as being New Year's Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, Memorial Day and Martin Luther King Jr. Day. H-2 PROGRESS AND COMPLETION: All the time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of essence to the Contract. The Contractor shall begin the Work on the date of commencement as defined in this Section. He shall carry the Work forward expeditiously with adequate forces and shall complete it within the Contract Time. H-3 CONSTRUCTION WORK: Noise created by construction work within three hundred (300) feet of an occupied residential structure involving the erection, excavation, demolition, alteration, or repair of any building, structure, or flatwork is prohibited as follows: Before 7:00 a.m. or after 8:00 p.m. Monday -Friday Before 9:00 a.m. or after 8:00 p.m. Saturday -Sunday H-4 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME: If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner or the Architect, or by any employee of the Owner, or by any separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in transportation, unavoidable casualties or any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by any cause which the Architect determines may justify the delay, then the contract time may be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as recommended by the Architect and approved by the Owner. When the Contractor is delayed due to abnormal weather conditions, the weather table provided as WT-1 in these Contract Documents shall be used as the basis for providing a fair and equitable adjustment of the contract time. All claims for extension of time shall be made in writing to the Architect no more than fifteen days after the occurrence of the delay; otherwise they shall be waived. If no schedule or agreement is made stating the dates upon which written interpretations shall be furnished, then no claim for delay shall be allowed on account of failure to furnish such interpretation until fifteen days after demand is made for them, and not then unless such a claim is reasonable. H-5 NO DAMAGE FOR DELAY: No payment, compensation or adjustment or any kind (other than the extensions of time provided for) shall be made to the Contractor for damages because of hindrances or delays from an cause in the progress of the work, whether such hindrances or delays be avoidable or unavoidable, and the Contractor agrees that he will make no claim for compensation, damages or mitigation of liquidated damages for any such delays, and will accept in full satisfaction for such delays said extension of time.

Each item in the Schedule of Values shall include its proper share of overhead and profit. This Schedule, when approved by the Architect and the Owner, shall be used as a basis for the Contractor's Applications for Payment. 1-3 PROGRESS PAYMENTS: On the first day of each month after the first month's work has been completed, the Contractor will make current estimates in writing for review by the Architect and Owner of materials in place complete and the amount of work performed during the preceding month or period and the value thereof at the prices contracted for as shown on the approved Schedule of Values and Progress Schedule. If payments are to be made on account of materials or equipment not incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably stored at the site such payments shall be conditioned upon submission by the Contractor of bills of sale or such other procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner's title to such materials or equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest including applicable insurance and transportation to the site. The Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials and equipment covered by an Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to the Owner upon the receipt of such payment by the Contractor, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances hereinafter referred to as "liens"; and that no Work, materials or equipment covered by an Application for Payment will have been acquired by the Contractor, or by any other persons performing the Work at the site or furnishing materials and equipment for the Work, subject to an agreement under which an interest therein or an encumbrance thereon is retained by the seller or otherwise imposed by the Contractor or such other person. The Contractor shall prepare each application for payment on AIA Document G702, "Application and Certificate for Payment", and attached thereto AIA Document G703, "Continuation Sheet", to indicate the progress made to date and the period or month for which payment is requested for each Item listed in the Schedule of Values. A copy of the revised monthly work progress schedule must be attached before the pay request can be accepted. 1-4 CERTIFICATES FOR PAYMENT: If the Contractor has made Application for Payment as above, the Architect will, with reasonable promptness but not more than seven days after the receipt of the Application, prepare a Certificate of Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount determined to be properly due, or state in writing reasons for withholding a Certificate. The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a representation by the Owner, based on the Architect's observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated; that the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work as a functioning whole upon Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests required by the Contract Documents, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion, and to any specific qualifications stated in the Certificate); and recommendations to the Owner that the Contractor be paid in the amount certified. In addition, the Architect's approval of final payment assures the Owner that the conditions precedent to the Contractor's being entitled to final payment as set forth in this Section have been fulfilled. After the Architect has issued a Certificate for Payment, the Owner shall approve or disapprove same within ten days after it has been delivered to the Owner. For contracts less than $400,000, Owner shall pay 90% of the approved estimate to the Contractor within seven days after its approval, and the remaining 10% of each such estimate will be retained by the Owner until Substantial Completion. For contracts in excess of $400,000, the Owner will retain only 5% of each estimate until Substantial Completion. No Certificate for a progress payment, nor any progress payment, nor any partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner, shall constitute an acceptance of any Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents, or relieve the Contractor of liability in respect to any warranties or responsibility for faulty materials or workmanship. The Contractor shall promptly remedy any defects in the Work and pay for any damage to other work resulting therefrom that shall appear within a period of one year from the date of final acceptance of the Work unless a longer period is specified. 1-5 PAYMENTS WITHHELD: The Architect may decline to approve an Application for Payment and may withhold his Certificate in whole or in part if in his opinion he is unable to make the representations to the Owner as provided in this Section. The Architect may also decline to approve any Applications for Payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent inspections, may nullify the whole or any part of any Certificate for Payment previously issued to such extent as may be necessary in his opinion to protect the Owner from loss because of: 1) Defective work not remedied; 2) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims; 3) Failure of the Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors, or for labor, materials or equipment; 4) Reasonable doubt that the Work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum; General Conditions of the Contract for Construction Lump Sum Contract Page 17 of 28 CFW PMD — Crime Lab Full Building Generator Replacement — Project #102986 August 2023 5) Damage to another contractor; 6) Reasonable indication that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time; or 7) Unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by the Contractor.

The Owner reserves the right to withhold the payment of any monthly estimate, without payment of interest, if the Contractor fails to perform the Work in accordance with the specifications. 1-6 LIQUIDATED DAMAGES: The parties agree and acknowledge that actual damages are uncertain and difficult to ascertain because the Project relates to construction for a municipality. Normal damages of lost rent or profit are not applicable in this circumstance because the City is a municipality and the Project will not receive rent and the City will not have lost profits. Therefore, the parties agree that because City's actual damages are too difficult to ascertain that the liquidated damages stated below are reasonable and a correct representation of actual damages to the City. The parties also agree that the liquidated damages called for in this contract are not a penalty but an agreed upon damages calculation by two sophisticated parties.

Any changes in work required due to changed or unforeseen conditions, or by request of either the Contractor or the City, shall be coordinated with the Director, Property Management Department. A change order must be written and duly negotiated and executed prior to performing changed work. The cost or credit to the Owner resulting from a Change in the work shall be determined in one or more of the following ways: 1) by mutual acceptance of a lump sum property itemized, including the allowance to Contractor for overhead and profit stipulated in the original contract proposal; 2) by unit prices stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon; or 3) by cost and a mutually acceptable fixed or percentage fee. If none of the methods set forth herein above is agreed upon, the Contractor, provided he receives a Change Order, shall promptly proceed with the Work involved. The cost of such work shall then be determined on the basis of the Contractor's reasonable expenditures and savings, including a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit as indicted in the original contract proposal. In such cases, the Contractor shall keep and present, in such form as the Architect shall prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data. Pending final determination of cost to the Owner, payments on account shall be made on the Architect's Certificate of Payment as approved by the Owner. If after the Contract has been executed, the Architect, requests a price proposal from the Contractor for a proposed change in scope of the work, Contractor shall process such proposal within seven days of receipt and return the price quote to the Architect in writing. The Architect shall review the price quotation and if approval is recommended, forward the proposed change order request and price proposal to the Owner for approval. If approval is not recommended, the Architect will attempt to negotiate with Contractor to revise the proposal to a figure which is fair and reasonable and forward it on to the Owner for approval. If the negotiations do not result in an equitable solution, the Architect shall prepare a cost-plus type Change Order with a price -not -to -exceed figure for approval by the City and require specific documentation to be provided by Contractor in accordance with the paragraph above. Contractor is advised that according to City of Fort Worth Charter, that, the City Council must approve all Change Orders and Work Orders which results in an increase in cost of the contract amount by over $100,000. Normal processing time for the City Staff to obtain City Council approval, once the recommended change order has been received at the City, is approximately thirty days. Owner and Contractor shall endeavor to identify Change Order items as early in the Construction process as possible to minimize their impact on the construction schedule. If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or subsequently agreed upon, and if the quantities originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed Change Order that application of the agreed unit prices to the quantities of Work proposed will create a hardship on the Owner or the Contractor, the applicable unit prices shall be equitably adjusted to prevent such hardship. If the Contractor claims that additional cost or time is involved because of (1) any written interpretation issued pursuant to Section A, (2) any order by the Architect or Owner to stop the Work pursuant to Section B, where the Contract was not at fault, or (3) any written order for a minor change in the Work, the Contractor shall make such claim. L-2 CLAIMS FOR ADDITIONAL COST OR TIME: If the Contractor wishes to make a claim for an increase in the Contract Sum or an extension in the Contract Time, he shall give the Architect written notice thereof within a reasonable time after the occurrence of the event that gave rise to such claim. This notice shall be given by the Contractor before proceeding to execute the Work, except in an emergency endangering life or property in which case the Contractor shall proceed in accordance with Section J. No such claim shall be valid unless so made. Any change in the Contract Sum or Contract Time resulting from such claim, if approved by the Owner, shall be authorized by Change Order. L-3 OVERHEAD ALLOWANCES FOR CHANGES: Should any change in the work or extra work be ordered, the following applicable percentage shall be added to Material and Labor costs to cover overhead and profit: 1. Allowance to the Contractor for overhead and profit for extra work performed by the Contractor's own forces shall not exceed fifteen percent 15% . 2. Allowance to the Contractor for overhead and profit for extra work performed by a Subcontractor and supervised by the Contractor shall not exceed ten percent 1( 0%l. L-4 MINOR CHANGES IN THE WORK: The Architect shall have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract General Conditions of the Contract for Construction Lump Sum Contract Page 23 of 28 CFW PMD — Crime Lab Full Building Generator Replacement — Project #102986 August 2023 Documents. Such changes may be effected by Field Order or by other written order. Such changes shall be confirmed in writing by the Architect and shall be binding on the Owner and the Contractor. L-5 FIELD ORDERS: The Architect may issue written Field Orders which interpret the Contract Documents, or which order minor changes in the Work without change in Contract Sum or Contract Time. The Contractor shall carry out such Field Orders promptly.

If any other work has been covered which the Owner has not specifically requested to observe prior to being covered, the Architect or the Owner may request to see such work and it shall be uncovered by the Contractor. If such Work be found in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, the cost of uncovering and replacement shall, by appropriate Change Order, be charged to the Owner. If such work be found not in accordance with the Plans and Specifications, the Contractor shall pay such costs unless it is found that this condition was caused by a separate contractor employed by the Owner. M-2 CORRECTION OF WORK: The Contractor shall promptly correct all work rejected by the Architect or Owner as defective or as failing to conform to the Plans and Specifications whether observed before or after Substantial Completion and whether or not fabricated, installed or completed. The Contractor shall bear all costs of correcting such rejected Work, including the cost of the Architect's additional service thereby made necessary.

If the Contractor does not remove such defective or non -conforming work within a reasonable time fixed by written notice from the Owner, the Owner may remove it and may store the materials or equipment at the expense of the Contractor. If the Contractor does not pay the cost of such removal and storage within ten days thereafter, the Owner may upon ten additional days' written notice sell such work at auction or at private sale and shall account for the net proceeds thereof, after deducting all the costs that should have been borne by the Contractor including compensation for additional architectural services. If such proceeds of sale do not cover all costs that the Contractor should have borne, the difference shall be charged to the Contractor and an appropriate Change Order shall be issued. If the payments then or thereafter due the Contractor are not sufficient to cover such amount, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner. If the Contractor fails to correct such defective or non -conforming work, the Owner may correct it in accordance with Section G. The obligation of the Contractor under this Section shall be in addition to and not in limitation of any obligations imposed upon him by special guarantees required by the Contract Documents or otherwise prescribed by law. M-3 ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE OR NON -CONFORMING WORK: If the Owner prefers to accept defective or non- conforming work, he may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case a Change Order will be issued to reflect an appropriate reduction in the Contract Sum, or, if the amount is determined after final payment, it shall be paid by the Contractor.

POLICY NUMBER: QT6604H598083TIA23 COMMERCIAL INLAND MARINE C. LIMITS OF INSURANCE The most we will pay for loss or damage in any one occurrence is the applicable Limit of Insur- ance shown in the Declarations, Schedule(s), Coverage Form(s) or Endorsement(s). But in the event coverage for loss or damage is provided under the Coverage Extensions or Additional Coverages, the Limits of Insurance for such Cov- erage Extension or Additional Coverage will apply as additional amounts of insurance, unless oth- erwise stated within the Coverage Extension or Additional Coverage. D. DEDUCTIBLE We will not pay for loss or damage in any one oc- currence until the amount of the adjusted loss or damage exceeds the applicable Deductible shown in the Declarations, Schedule(s), Cover- age Form(s) or Endorsement(s). We will then pay the amount of the adjusted loss or damage in ex- cess of the Deductible, up to the applicable Limit of Insurance. The applicable Deductible shown in the Declara- tions applies to the Coverage Extensions and Ad- ditional Coverages unless otherwise stated in the Coverage Extension or Additional Coverage. Unless otherwise stated, if more than one De- ductible amount applies to loss or damage in any one occurrence, the total of the deductible amounts applied in that occurrence will not ex- ceed the amount of the largest applicable De- ductible.

We will not pay the full amount of any loss if the applicable "total project value" at the time of loss multiplied by the stated Coinsurance Percentage is greater than the applicable Covered Property Limit of Insurance. Instead, we will determine the most we will pay using the following steps: Step (1) Multiply the "total project value" at the time of loss by the Coinsur- ance Percentage. Step (2) Divide the Covered Property Limit of Insurance by the figure deter- mined in Step (1). Step (3) Multiply the total amount of the covered loss, before the application of any deductible, by the figure determined in Step (2). Step (4) Subtract the deductible from the figure determined in Step (3). We will pay the amount determined in Step (4) or the Limit of Insurance, which- ever is less. For the remainder, you will either have to rely on other insurance or absorb the loss yourself. b. Coinsurance does not apply to: (1) Additional Coverages; or (2) Coverage Extensions. 3.
