(b) If part of the Coniractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the Owner or a separate contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly report to the Architect/Engineer apparent discrepancies or defecis in the other construction that would render it unsuitable for proper execution and results. Failure of fihe Contractor to so report shall constitute an acknowledgment that the Owner's or separate contractors completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive the Contracto��'s Work, except as to defects not then reasonably discoverable. (c) The Owiler shall not be liable to the Contractor for damages suffered by the Contractor due to the fault or negligence of a separate concractor o�• through failure of a separate contractor to carry out the direcfiions of the Owner or the Architect/Engineer.

ARTICL� 7 AMENDM�NTS 7.1 CHANG� ORDERS (a) A Cha�lge Order is a writiei� order to tl�e Contractor, signed by the Owner and the Architect/Engineer, issued after execution of the Contract, authorizing a change in the Work, an adjustment in the Contract Sum, or an adjustinent to the Contract Time, consistent with other applicable pt•ovisions of this Contract. The Owner, wiihout invalidating the Co��tract and without requiring notice of any kind to tl�e sureties, may order changes to the scope of Work under the Contract by additions, deletions, or other revisions, the Contract Sum and Contract Tiine to be adjusted consistent with other applicable provisions of this Coi�tract. All Change Orders shall be executed on a Change Order form approved by the Owner and the Owner's City Attorney. (b) In addition to the Owner and the Architect/Engineer, the Contractor shall sign all Change Orders to verify a�id confirm the tern�s and conditions estabizshed by Change Order; however, should the Contractor xefuse to sign a Change Order, this shall not relieve him of his obligation to perform the change directed by the Owner and the Architect/Engineer to the best of liis ability in accordance with the provisions of this Article 7. A Change Ui•der signed by the Contractor indicates his agreen�.ent with all of the changes approved, including the adjustment in the Contract Sum or the Contract Time. �ACH CHANGE ORD�R SHALL BE SPECIFIC AND FINAL AS TO PRIC�S AND EXTENSIONS OF TIM�, WITH NO RESERVATIONS OR OTHER PROVISIONS ALLOWING FOR rUTURE ADDITIONAL MONEY OR TIME AS A R�SULT OF THE PARTICULAR CHANG�S IDENTIFIED AND FULLY COMP�NSATED IN THE CHANGE ORD�R. Tl�e execution of a Change Order by the Contractor shall constitute conclusive evidence of the Contractor's agreement to the ordered changes in the Work. Tlie Contractor forever releases any claim against the Owner for additional time or conlpensation for matters relating to or arising out of or resulting from the Work included within or affected by the executed Change Order. This release applies to claims related to the cumulative impact of all Change Orders and to any claim related to the effect of a cliange on other Work. (c) No extra work (except under emergency conditions) or changes shall be a��ade nor shall any substitutions, changes or additions to or oix�issions or deviations from the requirements of the Drawings and Specificatio��s be made unless pursuant to a written Change O��der signed by tlie Owner and ihe Architect/�n�ineer, it being expressly understood that the Owner shall not be liable for the cost of extra work or any substitution, change, addition, omission or deviation from the requirei�lents of the Drawings or Specif cations unless the saine shall have been authorized in writing by the Owner and fihe Architect/�n�i��eer in a written change order or other An�endment. The provisions of this Paragraph 7.l shall control in ihe event of any inconsistency between such provisions and the other provisions of this Article 7. See Subparagraph 10.3(a) of the General Conditions for Change Orders under einergency conditions. (d) Tl�e method of determining the cost or credit io tlle Owner for any change in the Work shall be one of the following: (]) mutual acceptance of a not-to-eaceed lump su�n amount properly itemized and supported by suff cient substantiating data to permit evaluation; (2) unit prices stated in the Contract Documez�ts or subsequently agreed upon; (3) cost to be determined in a manner a�reed upon by tllc parties and a mutually acceptable f xed or percentage fee; or (4) tlie force account anethod provided in Subparagraph 7.1(e) (e) If the parties cannoi agree to one of the metl�ods of calculating cost provided in Clauses (d) (1), (d) (2), or (d) (3), or if the parties agree to a method but cannot agree to a final dollar f gure, or if the Contractor for whatever reason refuses to sign the Change Order in question, the Contractor, provided he receives a written order signed by the Owiaer, shall promptly pz-oceed wiih the Work involved. The cost of the Work involved shall then be calculated on the basis of the reasonable jobsite expenditures and savings of those performing the Wox-k att��ibutable to the changes, including a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit, such allowance in any case never to exceed 15%. In such case, the Contractor shall keep an itemized accouniing of the Work involved, on a daily basis, in such form and with the appropriate supporting data as the Architect/Cngineer and Owner may prescribe. Sworn copies of the itemized accounti�lg shall be delivered to the Architect/�ngineer each day during ihe perfoi•mance of force account work, with copies to the Owner. FAILURE OF TH� CONTR.ACTOR TO SUBMIT TH� SWORN-TO ITEMIZ�D ACCOUNTING DAILY AS REQUIRED HEREIN SHALL CONSTITUT� A WAIVER BY THC CONTRACTOR OF ANY RIGHT TO DISPUTE TH� OWNER'S DETERMINATION OF TH� AMOUNT DUE THE CONTRACTOR FOR FORC� ACCOUNT WORK. Costs to be charged under this Subparagrapli for force account work are limited to the following: (1) costs of labor, including social security, old age and unemploy���ent insurance, fi•inge bene�ts requi�•ed by agreement or custom, a�id workers compexlsation insurance; (2) costs of materials, supplies and equipment (but not to include off-site storage unless approved in writii�g by tl�e Owner), whether incorporated or consumed; (3) rental costs of macl�ixlery and equipment, exclusive of hand tools, whether rented from the Contractor or others; (4) costs of preniiums for all bonds and insura��ce related to the Work; and (5) additioz�al cosis of supervision and field offce personnel direcily attributable to the changed Work. Pending f nal determination of cost to the Owner, paymei�t of undisputed amounts on force account shall be included on the Architect/En�ineer's Certifcate of Pay�nent as work is completed. (� The amount of credit to be allowed io tl�e Ownez' for any deletion of Work or any other cliange wliich results in a net decrease of the Contract Sum shall be the amount of acfival net cost conf rmed by the Architect/Cngineer plus tlie stated percentage for overhead and pro�t. When botli additions and deletions or credits coveriiag related Work or substitutions are involved in any one change, the allowance for overhead and profit shall be figured on ihe basis of tl�e net increase or decrease with respect to that change. 7.2 SUPPLEMENTAL AGR��MENTS A written Supplemental Agreeznent can also be used to implement changes in tlle Work iz�stead of a Change Order form, including but not limited to situations involving partial occupancy of the Work under Paragraph 9.8, a change made to the Drawings or the Specif cations without an increase in the Contract Sum, or special circumsta�lces where it is ilecessary or more appropriate for the Owner to use a Supplemental Agreement. Written Supplemental Agreements shall have a status equal io that of Chat�.ge Orders fo�� purposes of priority of Contract Documents intetpretation, except tl�at to the extent of a conflict, later Supplemental Agreements in time control over earlier Supplemental Agreements, and the latest Change Order or Supplemental A�reement in time controls over earlier dated Change Orders and Supplemental Agreements. The rules of Subparagraphs 7.1(b) through (� shall also apply to the negotiation and execution of Supplemental Agreeinents. 7.3 MINOR CHANGES IN TH� WORK The Architect/Engineer, after notifying the Owner, shall be authorized to order minor clianges in tlle Work not involving an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Contract Time and not inconsistent with the intent of the Co�ltract Documents. Minor cilai�ges shall be effected by written order, and shall be binding on the Owner and the Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written orders promptly. These written orders shall not be deetned to change or impact the Contract Sum or the Contract Tiine. Contractor shall liave no Claim for any minor chan�e ordered to the Work under this Paragraph 7.3 unless the Contractor submits its change proposal, prior to complying with the minor change ordez•ed a��d in no event later than ten (10) working days fi•om the date the minor change was ordered, to ihe Owner for appi•oval. 7.4 TIMC REQUIR�D TO PROCESS AM�NllMENTS (a) All of the Coniractor's responses to proposal requests shall be accompanied by a coinplete, itemized breakdown of costs. Responses to proposal requests shall be submitted suff ciently in advance of the required wo�•k to allow the Owner and tl�e Architect/�n�ineer a miilimum of thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by tlle Architect/Engineer to review the itemized breakdown and to prepare or distribute additioi�al documents as may be �aecessaiy. All of the Contractor's responses to proposal requests slaall include a statement that the cost described in the response represents the complete, total and fnal cost and addiiional Contract Time associaied witl� the extra work, change, additioia to, oniission, deviation, substitution, oa• other grounds for seekin� extra compensation under the Contract Documeiats, wiihoui reservaiion or further recourse. (b) All Amendments ��equire approval by either the City Counci] or, where autliorized by the state law and City ordi�iance, by tl�e City Manager pursuant to Administrative Action. Tl�e approval process requires a minimum of forty-five (45) calendar days af�er subn�zission to the Owner in final form with all supporting data. Receipt of a submission by Owner does not co��stitute acceptance or approval of a proposal, nor does it constitute a warranty that the proposal will be authorized by City Council Resolution or Administrative Action. TH� TIM� ItCQUIIt�D FOR TH� APPROVAL PROCESS SHALL NOT BE CONSID�R�D A DELAY AND NO EXT�NSIONS TO THE CONTRACT TIME OR INCREASE IN TH� CONTRACT SUM WILL BE CONSIDERED OR GRANT�D AS A RCSULT OF THIS PROCESS. Pending the approval described above, the Contractor will proceed witl� the work under a pending Amendment only if directed in writing by the Owner. ARTICLE 8 CONTRACT TIME 8.1 D�FINITIONS (a) Unless oiherwise provided, the Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustmenis, allotted in tl�e Contract Documenis for Substantial Completion of the Work. (b) 1'he date of comi��encement of the Work is the date established in the notice to proceed fi�onn tlle Owner. The date of commencement shall not be postponed by the failure of ihe Contractot•, or of persons or entities for whom the Contractor is responsible to act protnptly to commence the Work. Tf the Owner unreasonably delays the issuance of tl�e notice to proceed ihrough no fault of the Cot�.tractor, the Contractor shall be entitled only to an equitable extension of the Contract Time; ihe Contract Sum shall remain unchan�;ed. (c) The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by the Architect/En�ii�eer in accordance with Paragraph 9.7. (d) The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall niean a calendar day, begi�u�i��g and ending at 12:00 midnight, unless otherwise specifically defined by special provision. 8.2 PROGR�SS AND COMPL�TION (a) Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing ihe Building Construction Services Agreement, the Contractor conf rms tl�at the Contract Time is a reasonable period for perforn�ing the Work. (b) 1'he Contractor shall not knowingly, except by ag�•ee�nent with or instruction of the Owner in writing, premaiurely coann�ence operations on the Project site or elsewhere pi•ior to the effective date of insurance to be furnished by the Contractor as required by Article 11.

Thc Contractor slaall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces, materials, and equipment, and shall achieve Substantial Conapletion witl�in the Contract Time. If ihe Contractor fails or refuses to complete the Work within the Contract Time as specif ed in the Bid P�•oposal form, the Buildin� Construciion Services Agreement, or in any proper extension of the Contract Time granted by the Owner, then the Contractor agrees, as a part of the consideration for the awarding of the Coniract, to pay to the Ovv�ier the amount of liquidated damages (hereinafter called the "Stipulated Amount") as stipulated in the Bid Proposal form and the Building Construction Services A�reement for each calexidar day that fihe Contractor lias not Substantially Completed fihe Wo�•k aftei• the expiration of the Contract Time provided. Tl�.e Stipulaied Amount is not to be considered as a penalty, but shall be deemed, taken, or treated as reasonable liquidated damages, fxed az�d agreed upon by and beiween the Contractor and the Owner because of the itnpracticality and extreine difficulty of fixing and ascertaining the actual damages the Owner would sustain in the event of the Contractor's late completion of the Project, and the stipulated amount is agreed to be the daily amount of dan�ages tliat the Owner would sustain. The Stipulated Amount, as it accrues, will be retained from any portion of the Contract Sum due or that inay become due to tl�e Contractor. In the event the portion of the Contract Sum retained by the Owner is insufficient to recover the Stipulated Amouiit, then the Contractor or ihe Contractor's Surety shall pay to the Owner any additional liquidated dannages due that are in excess of the funds remaining unpaid in the Contract Sum. The Owi�er shall be the sole judge as to whether or not the Work has been Substantially Completed within the calendar days allotied, which shall include the original Contract Time and any proper extension of the Contract Time granted in writing by the Owner. Should the Contractor dispute the Orvner's deterznination of liquidated damages due, however, or should the Contracto��, or the Contractor's agents or assigns, institute any legal action against the Owner to enforce rights under the Contract Documents, then this Subparagraph 8.2(c) shall not be construed to prevent the Owner from seeking full recovery for any and all actual damages suffered by the Owiler and attributable to the Contractor, as an alternative to all liquidated damages due. 8.3 D�LAYS AND EXT�NSIONS OF TIM� (a) If the Contractor is delayed at any time in tl�e progress of the Work by a�i act or neglect of the Owner or Archiiect/Engineer, or of an employee of eitl�er, or of a separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in tl�e Work, or by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner pending a claim, or by other causes which ihe Architect/Engineer determines may justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be exiended by Chan�e Order for such reasonable time as the Architect/�ngineer and Owner anay determine. (b) Claims relatiiag to Contract Tizaae and time extensio�is shall be xnade in accordance with the applicable provisions of Paragraph 4.3. (c) No Damages for Delay. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISIONS OP TH� CONTRACT DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING TI-iE G�NERAL CONDTTIONS, NO ADJUSTMENT SHALL B� MADE 1'O THE CONTRA.CT SUM AND THE CONTRACTOR SHALL NOT B� ENTITLED TO CLAIM OR R�CEIV� ANY ADDITTONAL COMP�NSATION AS A RESULT OF OR ARISING OUT OF ANY DLLAY, HINDRANC�, DISRUPTION, FORCE MAJ�URE, IMPACT, OR 1NT�Rr�RCNC�, INTENTIONAL OR UNINTENTIONAL, FORESEEN OR UNFOIZ�SE�N, WI-�ICH INCRCAS�S TH� TIME TO COMPLET� TH� WORK, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMI1'ED TO ANY DELAYS CAUS�D lN WHOL� OR IN PART BY THE ACTS, OMISSIONS, FAILURES, N�GLIGENCE, OR FAULT OF THE OWN�R, THE ARCHIT�CT/ENGIN�ER, OR TI-iE OWN�R'S RCPRES�NTATIVE, AN �XT�NSION Or TH� CONTRACT TIM� UNDER SUBPARAGRA.PH 8.3(a) B�ING THE CONTRACTOR'S SOLE REMEDY. (d) The Owr�er shall have the right to occupy, without prejudice to the right of either party, any coznpleted or largely completed portiox�s of the structure or Work, notwithstandin� the fact that the Contract Time for completing all or a portion of the Work may not have expired. Partial occupancy and use shall not be dee�x►ed as an acceptanee of the Work taken or used. (e) The Contractor shall promptly suspend the Work when either the Contractor or the Owner is ordered to do so by a court order from a court having lawful jurisdiction, and the Contractor will not be entitled to additional compensation by virtue of any delays resulting fi•om the court order. The Contractor will also not be liable to the Owner for a delay caused in fact by the Work being suspended by a court order. ( fl The Architect/�ngineer, with the consent of the Owner, shall have the authority to suspend the Work, in wl�ole or in part, for such period or periods as the Architect/Engineer deeins necessary due to unusual or severe weather conditions as are considered unfavo��able for the suitable prosecution of the Work, or due to failuxe on the part of tl�e Contractor to correct conditions considered unsafe for workmen or the general public. Tf it should become necessary to stop tl�e Work for an indefinite period, the Contractor shall siore all niaterials in such a manner that they will not obstruct or impede the public unnecessarily or become damaged in aa�y way, and shall take every precaution to prevent damage or deterioration of the Work perfor���ed. In cases of suspension of ihe Work under this Subparagraph, the Contraetor sl�all also provide suitable drainage about the Work and erect temporary structures where necessary. The Coiltractor shall not suspend the Work in whole or in part without written authority from the Arcllitect/�ngineer or the Owner, and shall resunae the Work promptly when notified by tl�e Architect/�ngineer or the Owner to resume ope�•ations. (g) In the event of a delay that is the responsibility of tlae Contractor or any of the Subcoaitz•actors, for which tl�e Coxitractor is ��ot entitled to a time extension under the provisions of this Contract, the Owner may direct that the Woa•k be accelerated by mea��s of overtime, additional crews or additional shifls, or resequencii�g. This acceleration shall be at no cost io tl�e Owner and will co�itinue until the Contract Time is restored. In the event of a delay for which the Contractor is ei�titled io a time extension, as deternnined by tl�e Architect/Engineer, Owner may similarly direci accele�•ation and the Co�iiractor agrees to perform same on the basis that the Co��tractor will be ��eimbursed only to the extent described i�� Subparagraph 4.3(i). TH� CONTRACTOR EXPRCSSLY WAIVES ANY OTHER COMP�NSATION R�SULTING PROM ACC�L�RATION, SUCH AS LOSS Or LABOR PRODUCTIVITY OR �FFICIENCY.

(b) Subparaga•apli 9.5(a). The Ceriif cate for Payment shall be issued o�� the current version of AIA Fornn G702 (Application a»d Certificate for Payment) as approved by the Owner. (c) The issuance of a Certificate for Payment will constitute a xepresentation by the ArchitecUEn�ineer to the Owner, based on the Architect/E��gineer's obsei-��ations at the site and the data cozx�prising the Application for Payment, i11at the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of the Architect/�ngineer's lcziowledge, information and belief, quality of the Work is in accordance witl� the Contract Docunlents. The foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Docuznents upon Substantial and Final Completion, to results of subsequeni tests and inspections, to minor deviations fron� the Contract Documents correctable prior to Fi�ial Completion and to specif c qualifications expressed by the Architect/Engineer. The issuance of a Certif cate for Payment will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to pay�nent in the amount certified, subject to the Owner's approval. The issuance of a Certifcate for Payment is not a representation that the Architect/Engineer has: (1) made exhaustive or continuous on-siie inspections to cl�eck the quality or quantity of the Work; (2) reviewed construction means, methods, techi�iques, sequences or procedures; (3) reviewed copies of requisitions received fronn Subcontractors and material suppliers and other data requested by tlie Owner to substaxrtiate the Contractor's ri�ht to payment; or (4) inade examination to ascerlain how or for what pu��pose the Contcactor has used money previously paid on account of il�e Coniract Sum.

The Applicatioia may include acceptable nonperishable materials delivered to the Work or stored as provided for ixi Paragraph 9.3(c) and tl�e paynzent ��ill be allowed on the net i�lvoice value, less taxes and applicable rctainage. (e) The City is required to withhold retainage for public works coniracts in wl�ich the total contract price estimate at the time of execution is more thail$400,000; ho��vever, ihis requirement is typically applied by the City for all public works contracis in excess of $50,000. Tlie City �nay require varying perceniage withholding amounts; however, the City typically requires fve perce��t. Por retainage percentages in excess of fve percent, the City must deposit the retainage into an iz�.terest-bearing account and pay the i�iterest earned to the contractor oz� completion of the coa�t�act. Tlie retainage will be witliheld by ihe Owner from �ach progress payment until final completion of the Work by the Contractor, approval of final completion by tlae Arcliitect/Cx�gineer, and f nal acceptance of the Work by the Ow�ier. Unless otherwise required by state law, the retainage perceiatage as specif ed above is based upon the ori�inal Contract Sum, and will not be affected in the event the original Coniract Sum is subsequently increased or decreased by Change Order. (� No progress payments shall be made on contracts where performance and payment bonds are not reyuired or furnished. In such instances, payment for the Work performed will be made upon final completion and acceptaalce by ihe Owner of all Work. 9.5 DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD CERTIFICATION (a) The Architect/En�ineer or ihe Owner may decide not to certify payment a�id may withhold a Certificate for Payment in whole or in par[, to the exteni reasonably necessary to protect the Owner's interest, if in the Architect/Engineer's or Owz�er's opinion ihe representations to the Ownet� required by Subparagrapl� 9.4(b) cannot be made. 1f the Architect/Engineer or the Owaier is unable to certify payment in the amount of the Application, the Architect/�ngineer or the Owner will notify the Contractor as provided in Subparagraph 9.4(a). If the Contractor and Archiiect/Engineer or the Owner cannot agree on a revised amount, ille Architect/Engineer will promptly issue a Certificate for Payment for tlae an�ount for whicl� the Architect/�nginee�� is able to make the required representations to the Owner. TIZe Architect/�ngineer or the Owner may also decide xiot to certify payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent observations, may nullify the whole or a part of a Certiizcate for Payniez�t previously issued to such extent as may be necessary, in the ArcliitectlEngineer's or Owner's opinion, to protect the Owner fi•om loss because of: (1) defective or nonconforming Work not remedied; (2) ihird party claims �led o�• x•easonable evidence indicating probable f lin� of such clai�ns; (3) failure of tl�e Contt•actor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, iaaatez�ials, oi• equipnaent; (4) reasonable evidence that ihe Work cannot be coi��.pleted for tlie unpaid balance of the Coniract Sum; (5) damage to the Owner or another coniractor; (6) reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within ihe Contract Time, and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay; (7) persistent failure to carry out tlie Work in accordance witll the Cotitract Documents; or (8) mathemaiical or other er�•o�•s tliat are discovered in the Ap�lication for Payment.

Insuring Agreement a. We will pay those sums that the insured becomes legally obligated to pay as damages because of "bodily injury" or "property damage" to which this insurance applies. We will have the right and duty to defend the insured against any "suiY' seeking those damages. However, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit" seeking damages for "bodily injury" or "property damage" to which this insurance does not apply. We may, at our discretion, investigate any "occurrence" and settle any claim or "suit" that may result. But: (1) The amount we will pay for damages is limited as described in 5ection III — Limits Of Insurance; and (2) Our right and duty to defend ends when we have used up the applicable limit of insurance in the payment of judgments or settlements. No other obligation or liability to pay sums or perForm acts or services is covered unless explicitly provided for under Supplementary Payments. b. This insurance applies to "bodily injury" and "property damage" only if: (1) The "bodily injury" or "property damage" is caused by an "occurrence" and arises out of: (a) Operations perFormed for you by the "contractor" at the location specified in the Declarations; or (b) Your acts or omissions in connection with the general supervision of such operations; (2) The "bodily injury" or "property damage" occurs during the policy period; and (3) Prior to the policy period, no insured listed under Paragraph 1. of Section II — Who Is An Insured and no "employee" authorized by you to give or receive notice of an "occurrence" or claim, knew that the "bodily injury" or "property damage" had occurred, in whole or in part. If such a listed insured or authorized "employee" knew, prior to the policy period, that the "bodily injury" or "property damage" occurred, then any continuation, change or resumption of such "bodily injury" or "property damage" during or after the policy period will be deemed to have been known prior to the policy period. c. "Bodily injury" or "property damage" which occurs during the policy period and was not, prior to the policy period, known to have occurred by any insured listed under Paragraph 1. of Section II — Who Is An Insured or any "employee" authorized by you to give or receive notice of an "occurrence" or claim, includes any continuation, change or resumption of that "bodily injury" or "property damage" after the end of the policy period. CG 00 09 04 13 O Insurance Services Offce, Inc.,2012 Page 1of 9 d.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 2.b.(2) of Section I— Coverages — Bodily Injury And Property Damage Liability, such payments will not be deemed to be damages for "bodily injury" and "property damage" and wifl not reduce the limits of insurance.

The first Named Insured shown in the Declarations and the "contractor" are authorized to make changes in the terms of this policy with our consent. This policy's terms can be amended or waived only by endorsement issued by us and made a part of this policy. 4. Duties In The Event Of Occurrence, Claim Or Suit a.

Examination Of Your Books And Records We may examine and audit your books and records as well as the "contractor's" books and records as they relate to this policy at any time during the policy period and up to three years afterward. 6. Inspections And Surveys a. We have the right to: (1) Make inspections and surveys at any time; (2) Give you reports on the conditions we find; and (3) Recommend changes. b. We are not obligated to make any inspections, surveys, reports or recommendations and any such actions we do undertake relate only to insurability and the premiums to be charged.

To sue us on this Coverage Part unless all of its terms have been fully complied with. A person or organization may sue us to recover on an agreed settlement or on a final judgment against an insured; but we will not be liable for damages that are not payable under the terms of this Coverage Part or that are in excess of the applicable limit of insurance. An agreed settlement means a settlement and release of liability signed by us, the insured and the claimant or the claimanYs legal representative. 8. Other Insurance The insurance afforded by this Coverage Part is primary insurance and we will not seek contribution from any other insurance available to you unless the other insurance is provided by a contractor other than the designated "contractor" for the same operation and job location designated in the Declarations. Then we will share with that other insurance by the method described below. If all of the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. 9. Premiums The "contractor": a. Is responsible for the payment of all premiums; and CG 00 09 04 13 O Insurance Services Office, Inc.,2012 Page 7of 9 b. Will be the payee for any return premiums we pay. 10.Premium Audit a. We will compute all premiums for this Coverage Part in accordance with our rules and rates. b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as advance premium is a deposit premium only. At the close of each audit period we will compute the earned premium for that period and send notice to the "contractor". The due date for audit and retrospective premiums is the date shown as the due date on the bill. If the sum of the advance and audit premiums paid for the policy period is greater than the earned premium, we will return the excess to the "contractor". c. The "contractor" must keep records of the information we need for premium computation, and send us copies at such times as we may request. 11.Separation Of Insureds Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance, and any rights or duties specifically assigned in this Coverage Part to the first Named Insured, this insurance applies: a. As if each Named Insured were the only Named Insured; and b. Separately to each insured against whom claim is made or "suit" is brought. 72. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Caverage Part those rights are transferred to us. The insured must do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request, the insured will bring "suiY' or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. 13. When We Do Not Renew If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we will mail or deliver to the first Named Insured shown in the Declarations written notice of the nonrenewal not less than 30 days before the expiration date.
