covered "auto" you do not own, hire or borrow.

Coverage provided by this extension will not exceed the Limits of Liability required by the written

owned by or rented to an "insured" with respect to "pollutants" not in or upon a covered
"auto" if:

lightning, or sprinkler leakage while rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the
owner.
B. The following are added to SECTION III - LIMITS OF INSURANCE:

a. You must see to it that we are notified as soon as practicable of an "occurrence" or an offense which
may result in a claim. Knowledge of an "occurrence" by your agent, servant or employee shall not in

(1) How, when and where the "occurrence" took place;
(2) The names and addresses of any injured persons and witnesses; and

committed.

in the Contract or
b. a Major Item of work varies by more than 25% from the original Contract quantity.
5. When the quantity of work to be done under any Major Item of the Contract is more than

results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, a final determination
of quantities and classifications for Work performed under Paragraph 9.05, and any other
qualifications stated in the recommendation).
3. Processing any such payment will not thereby be deemed to have represented that:

have been exhaustive, extended to every aspect of the Work in progress, or involved
detailed inspections of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to City
in the Contract Documents; or

to be paid additionally by City or entitle City to withhold payment to Contractor; or
c. Contractor has complied with Laws and Regulations applicable to Contractor's performance
of the Work.
4. City may refuse to process the whole or any part of any payment because of subsequently
discovered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, and revise or revoke

subcontractors requiring correction or replacement;
b. discrepancies in quantities contained in previous applications for payment;
c. the Contract Price has been reduced by Change Orders;
d. City has been required to correct defective Work or complete Work in accordance with

E. Payment: Contractor will be paid pursuant to the requirements of this Article 14 and payment
will become due in accordance with the Contract Documents.

for such action.

may justify termination for cause:
1. Contractor's persistent failure to perform the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents
(including, but not limited to, failure to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials
or equipment, failure to adhere to the Project Schedule established under Paragraph 2.07 as
adjusted from time to time pursuant to Paragraph 6.04, or failure to adhere to the City's

financially unable to carry on the Work satisfactorily; or
8. Contractor commences legal action in a court of competent jurisdiction against the City.

to Contractor and Surety to arrange a conference with Contractor and Surety to address
Contractor's failure to perform the Work. Conference shall be held not later than 15 days, after
receipt of notice.
1. If the City, the Contractor, and the Surety do not agree to allow the Contractor to proceed to
perform the construction Contract, the City may, to the extent permitted by Laws and
Regulations, declare a Contractor default and formally terminate the Contractor's right to
complete the Contract. Contractor default shall not be declared earlier than 20 days after the
Contractor and Surety have received notice of conference to address Contractor's failure to
perform the Work.

further payment until the Work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract Price exceeds
all claims, costs, losses and damages sustained by City arising out of or resulting from
completing the Work, such excess will be paid to Contractor. If such claims, costs, losses and
damages exceedsuch unpaid balance, Contractor shall pay the difference to City. Such claims,
costs, losses and damages incurred by City will be incorporated in a Change Order, provided
that when exercising any rights or remedies under this Paragraph, City shall not be required to
obtain the lowest price for the Work performed.

shall be in any way liable or accountable to Contractor or Surety for the method by which the
completion of the said Work, or any portion thereof, may be accomplished or for the price paid
therefor.
City, notwithstanding the method used in completing the Contract, shall not forfeit the right
to recover damages from Contractor or Surety for Contractor's failure to timely complete the
entire Contract. Contractor shall not be entitled to any claim on account of the method used
by City in completing the Contract.
6. Maintenance of the Work shall continue to be Contractor's and Surety's responsibilities as

begins within seven days of receipt of notice of intent to terminate to correct its failure to perform
and proceeds diligently to cure such failure within no more than 30 days of receipt of said notice.
D. Where Contractor's services have been so terminated by City, the termination will not affect any
rights or remedies of City against Contractor then existing or which may thereafter accrue. Any
retention or payment of moneys due Contractor by City will not release Contractor from liability.
E. If and to the extent that Contractor has provided a performance bond under the provisions of
Paragraph 5.02, the termination procedures of that bond shall not supersede the provisions of this
Article.

2) However, design of future modifications of the facility may require
accurate information as to the final physical layout of items which are
shown only schematically on the Drawings.
b. Show on the job set of Record Drawings, by dimension accurate to within 1
inch, the centerline of each run of items.
1) Final physical arrangement is determined by the Contractor, subject to the
City's approval.
2) Show, by symbol or note, the vertical location of the Item ("under slab", "in
ceiling plenum", "exposed", and the like).
3) Make all identification sufficiently descriptive that it may be related
reliably to the Specifications.
c. The City may waive the requirements for conversion of schematic layouts
where, in the City's judgment, conversion serves no useful purpose. However,
do not rely upon waivers being issued except as specifically issued in writing
by the City.
B. Final Project Record Documents
Transfer of data to Drawings
a. Carefully transfer change data shown on the job set of Record Drawings to the
corresponding final documents, coordinating the changes as required.
b. Clearly indicate at each affected detail and other Drawing a full description of
changes made during construction, and the actual location of items.
c. Call attention to each entry by drawing a "cloud" around the area or areas
affected.
