bodily injury, sickness, disease or death, or to injury to or
destruction of tangible property (other than the Work it-
self) including the loss of use resulting therefrom, and

omission of the Contractor, any Subcontractor, anyone
directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone
for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of
whether or not it is caused in part by a party indemnified
hereunder. Such obligation shall not be construed to

ports, surveys, change orders, designs or specifications, or

. sufficiently complete so that the Owner can occupy or
utilize the Work for the use for which it is intended.
14.3 If the Contractor is delayed at any time in the
progress of the Work by changes ordered in the Work,
by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in transportation,
adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable,
unavoidable casualties, or any causes beyond the Con-
tractor's control, or by any other cause which the Archi-
tect determines may justify the delay, then the Contract
Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reason-
able time as the Architect may determine.

The Contractor shall require similar waivers in favor of the
Owner and the Contractor by Subcontractors and Sub -
subco

of one year from the Date of Substantial Completion of
the Contract or within such longer period of time as may
be prescribed by law or by the terms of any applicable
special warranty required by the Contract Documents. The

the Architect, terminate the Contract and recover from
the Owner payment for all Work executed and for any
proven loss sustained upon any materials, equipment,
tools, and construction equipment and machinery, includ-
ing reasonable profit and damages applicable to the
Project.
20.2 If the Contractor defaults or persistently fails or
neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents or fails to perform any provision of
the Contract, the Owner, after seven days' written notice
to the Contractor and without prejudice to any other
remedy he may have, may make good such deficiencies
and may deduct the cost thereof including compensation
for the Architect's additional services made necessary
thereby, from the payment then or thereafter due the
Contractor or, at his option, and upon certification by the
Architect that sufficient cause exists to justify such action,
may terminate the Contract and take possession of the
site and of all materials, equipment, tools, and construc-
tion equipment and machinery thereon owned by the
Contractor and may finish the Work by whatever method
he may deem expedient, and if the unpaid balance of the
Contract Sum exceeds the expense of finishing the Work,
such excess shall be paid to the Contractor, but if such
expense exceeds such unpaid balance, the Contractor
shall pay the difference to the Owner.

GENERAL CONDITIONS
ARTICLE 7
CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
7.1 The Contract Documents consist of this Agreement
with General Conditions, Supplementary and other Condi-
tions, the Drawings, the Specifications, all Addenda issued
prior to the execution of this Agreement, and all Modifi-
cations issued by the Architect after execution of the
Contract such as Change Orders, written interpretations
and written orders for minor changes in the Work. The
intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items
necessary for the proper execution and completion of the
Work. The Contract Documents are complementary, and
what is required by any one shall be as binding as if re-
quired by all. Work not covered in the Contract Docu-
ments will not be required unless it is consistent therewith
and reasonably inferable therefrom as being necessary to
produce the intended results.
7.2 Nothing contained in the Contract Documents shall
create any contractual relationship between the Owner or
the Architect and any Subcontractor or Sub- subcontractor.
7.3 By executing the Contract, the Contractor represents
that he has visited the site and familiarized himself with
the local conditions under which the Work is to be
performed.

struction and until final payment is due.
8.2 The Architect shall at all times have access to the
Work wherever it is in preparation and progress.
8.3 The Architect will visit the site at intervals appropri-
ate to the stage of construction to familiarize himself gen-
erally with the progress and quality of the Work and to
determine in general if the Work is proceeding in accord-
ance with the Contract Documents. However, the Archi-
tect will not be required to make exhaustive or continu-
ous on -site inspections to check the quality or quantity of
the Work. On the basis of his on -site observations as art
architect, he will keep the Owner informed of the prog-
ress of the Work; and will endeavor to guard the Owner
against defects and deficiencies in the Work of the Con-
tractor. The Architect will not have control or charge of
and will not be responsible for construction means, meth-
ods, techniques, sequences or procedures, or for safety
precautions and programs in connection with the Work,
and he will not be responsible for the Contractor's failure
to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract
Documents.
8.4 Based on the Architect's observations and an evalua-
tion of the Contractor's Applications for Payment, the
Architect will determine the amounts owing to the Con-
tractor and will issue Certificates for Payment in accord-
ance with Article 15.
8.5 The Architect will be the interpreter of the require-
ments of the Contract Documents. He will make decisions
on all claims, disputes or other matters in question be-
tween the Contractor and the Owner, but he will not be
liable for the results of any interpretation or decision ren-
dered in good faith. The Architect's decisions in matters
relating to artistic effect will be final if consistent with the
intent of the Contract Documents. All other decisions of
the Architect, except those which have been waived by
the making or acceptance of final payment, shall be sub-
ject to arbitration upon the written demand of either
party.
8.6 The Architect will have authority to reject Work
which does not conform to the Contract Documents.
8.7 The Architect will review and approve or take other

assessments and charges required for the construction, use
or occupancy of permanent structures or permanent
changes in existing facilities.
9.3 The Owner shall forward all instructions to the Con-
tractor through the Architect.
9.4 If the Contractor fails to correct defective Work or
persistently fails to carry out the Work in accordance with
the Contract Documents, the Owner, by a written order,
may order the Contractor to stop the Work, or any por-
tion thereof, until the cause for such order has been
eliminated; however, this right of the Owner to stop the
Work shall not give rise to any duty on the part of the
Owner to exercise this right for the benefit of the Con-
tractor or any other person or entity.
ARTICLE 10
CONTRACTOR
10.1 The Contractor shall supervise and direct the Work,
using his best skill and attention and he shall be solely

execution and completion of the Work, whether tempo-
rary or permanent and whether or not incorporated or to

defects and in conformance with the Contract Documents.
All Work not conforming to these requirements may be
considered defective.
10.5 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Docu-
ments, the Contractor shall pay all sales, consumer, use

time bids are received, and shall secure and pay for the
building permit land for all other permits and govern-
mental fees, licenses and inspections necessary for the
proper execution and completion of the Work.

10.11 To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Con-
tractor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and
the Architect and their agents and employees from and
against all claims, damages, losses and expenses, including
but not limited to attorneys' fees arising out of or result-
ing from the performance of the Work, provided that any
such claim, damage, loss or expense (1) is attributable to
bodily injury, sickness, disease or death, or to injury to or
destruction of tangible property (other than the Work it-
self) including the loss of use resulting therefrom, and
(2) is caused in whole or in part by any negligent act or
omission of the Contractor, any Subcontractor, anyone
directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone
for whose acts any of them may be liable, regardless of
whether or not it is caused in part by a party indemnified
hereunder. Such obligation shall not be construed to
negate, abridge, or otherwise reduce any other right or
obligation of indemnity which would otherwise exist as to
any party or person described in this Paragraph 10.11. In
any and all claims against the Owner or the Architect or
any of their agents or employees by any employee of the
Contractor, any Subcontractor, anyone directly or indi-

way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages,
compensation or benefits payable by or for the Contractor
or any Subcontractor under workers' or workmen's com-
pensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee
benefit acts. The obligations of the Contractor under this
Paragraph 10.11 shall not extend to the liability of the
Architect, his agents or employees, arising out of (1) the
preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, re-
ports, surveys, change orders, designs or specifications, or
(2) the giving of or the failure to give directions or in-
structions by the Architect, his agents or employees pro-
vided such giving or failure to give is the primary cause
of the injury or damage.

ments or in the Bidding Documents, the Contractor, as
soon as practicable after the award of the Contract, shall
furnish to the Architect in writing the names of Subcon-
tractors for each of the principal portions of the Work.

whom the Architect or the Owner may have a reasonable
objection. The Contractor shall riot be required to con-

ments, and to assume toward the Contractor all the obli-
gations and responsibilities which the Contractor, by these

and storage of their materials and equipment and the

pute has arisen. The award rendered by the arbitrators
shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in

tration, (3) the interest or responsibility of such person or

by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in transportation,
adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable,
unavoidable casualties, or any causes beyond the Con-
tractor's control, or by any other cause which the Archi-
tect determines may justify the delay, then the Contract
Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reason-
able time as the Architect may determine.

Article 5 of this Agreement.
