A copy of a bid tabulation is attached. A low bid of 3152,182 was submitted by Ashbrook Corporation. Ashbrook Corporation has experience in building belt filter presses and is qualified to furnish the type of equipment specified. An Ashbrook Corporation unit is currently in service at the East Plant, and it is our understanding that the unit bas performed well. We recommend that the Ashbrook Corporation bid be accepted end that the contract be awarded to Ashbrook Corporation. Contract documents for the belt press specify that the belt filter press will be delivered to the general construction contractor that will construct regional treatment facilities at the East Plant site; the. general construction contractor will be selected based upon bids to be received in early March. The documents also indicate that payment for the belt falter press will be through the general construction contractor. Bids for the belt filter press were received separately from construction bids as this will allow the belt filter press to be installed and placed in operation at an early date. Should you have questions, please so advise me. We appreciate having the opportunity to provide services to the City of Round Rock on this project. Sincerely, F egg, Inc. amen R. Miser, P.E.

The application will state the extent, if any, to which the evaluation and acceptance of the proposed substitute will prejudiceCON- TRACPOR's achievement of Substantial Completion on time, whether or not acceptance of the substitute for use in the Work will require a change in any of the Contract Documents (or in the provisions of any other direct contract with OWNER for work on the Project) to adapt the design to the proposed substitute and whether or not incorporation or use of the substitute in connection with the Work is subject to payment of any license fee or royalty. All variations of the proposed substitute from that specified will be identified in the application and available maintenance, repair and replacement service will be indi- cated. The application will also contain an itemized esti- mate of all costs or credits that will result directly or indirectly from acceptance of such substitute, including costs of redesign and claims of other contractors affected by the resulting change, all of which will be considered by ENGINEER in evaluating the proposed substitute. EN- GINEER may require CONTRACTOR to furnish addi- tional data about the proposed substitute. 6.7.1.3. CONTRAC OR's Expense: All data to be provided by CONTRACTOR in support of any proposed "or-equal" or substitute item will be at CONTRACI'OR's expense. 6.7.2. Substitute Construction Methods or Procedures: If a specific means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of 24 construction is shown or indicated in and expressly required by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR may furnish or utilize a substitute means, method, technique, sequence or procedure of construction acceptable to ENGINEER- CON- TRACTOR shall submit sufficient information to allow ENGI- NEER, in ENGINEER's sole discretion. to determine that the substitute proposed is equivalent to that expressly called for by the Contract Documents.

The CONTRACTOR's fee allowed to CONTRAC- TOR for overhead and profit shall be determined as follows: 11.6.1. a mutually acceptable fixed fee; or 11.6.2. if a fixed fee is not agreed upon, then a fee based on the following percentages of the various portions of the Cost of the Work: 11.6.2.1. for costs incurred under paragraphs 11.4.1 and 11.4.2. the CONTRACTOR's fee shall be fifteen percent; 11.6.2.2. for costs incurred under paragraph 11.4.3, the CONTRA 1OR's fee shall be five percent; 11.6.2.3, where one or more tiers of subcontracts are on the basis of Cost of the Work plus a fee and no fixed fee is agreed upon. the intent of paragraphs 11.4.1, 11.4.2, 11.4.3 and 11.6.2 is that the Subcontractor who actually performs or furnishes the Work, at whatever tier, will be paid a fee of fifteen percent of the costs incurred by such Subcontractor under paragraphs 11.4.1 and 11.4.2 and that any higher tier Subcontractor and CONTRACTOR will each be paid a fee of five percent of the amount paid to the next lower tier Subcontractor, 11.6.2.4. no fee shall be payable on the basis of costs itemized under paragraphs 11.4.4, 11.4.5 and 11.5; 11.6.2.5. the amount of credit to be allowed by CON- TRACTOR to OWNER for any change which results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease in cast plus a deduction in CONTRACTOR's fee by an amount equal to five percent of such net decrease; and 11.61.6. n hen both additions and credits are involved in any one change, the adjustment in CONTRACTOR's fee shall he computed on the basis of the net change in accordance with panigraphs 11.6.2.1 through 11.6.2.5, inclusive. 11.7. Whenever the cost of any Work is to be determined pursuant to paragraphs 11.4 and 11.5, CONTRACTOR will establish and maintain records thereof in accordance with generally acceptrd accounting practices and submit in form acceptable to I?NUINEER an itemized cost breakdown to- gether with supporting data. Cash Allowances: 11.8. It is understood that CONTRACTOR has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the Contract Documents and shall cause the Work so covered to be fur- nished and performed for such sums as may be acceptable to OWNER and ENGINEER. CONTRACIUR agrees that: • 11.8.1. the allowances include the cost to CONTRAC- TOR (less any applicable trade discounts) of materials and equipment required by the allowances to be delivered at the site, and all applicable taxes; and 11.8.2. CONTRACTOR's costs for unloading and han- dling on the site, labor. installation costs, overhead, profit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract Price and not in the allowances and no demand for additional payment on account of any of the foregoing will be valid. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by ENGINEER to reflect actual amounts due CONTRACTOR or account of Work covered by allowances, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly adjusted. 11.9.. Ur& Price wok: 11.9.1. Where the Contract Ducumenss provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially the Context Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of Unit Price Work tines the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreement. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determines ionsoftheactual quantities and classifica- lions of Unit Peace Work perfumed by CONTRACTOR will be made by ENGINEER in accodance with patagraph9.10. 11.9.2. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by CONTRACTOR to be adequate to °aver CONTRACIOR'soverhead and pro& foreach sepa- rately identied item. 119.3. OWNER or CONTRACTOR ntay make a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price in accordance with Artide I1 if: 11.9.3.1. the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by CONTRACTOR differs materially and sig- nificantly from the estimated quantity of such item indi- cated in the Agreement; and 11.9.3.2. there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to any other item of Work; and 11.9.3.3. if CONTRACTOR believes that CONTRAC- TOR is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result 35 of having incurred additional expense or OWNER be- lieves that OWNER is entitled to a decrease in Contract Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any such increase or decrease.

CONTRACTOR shall also be responsible for arrang- ing and obtaining and shall pay all costs in connection with any inspections, tests or approvals required for OWNER's and ENGINEER's acceptance of materials or equipment to be incorporated in the Work, or of materials, mix designs, or equipment submitted for approval prior to CONTRACPDR's purchase thereof for incorporation in the Work. 13.6. If any Work (or the work of others) that is to be inspected, tested or approved is covered by CONTRACTOR without written concurrence of ENGINEER, it must, if re- quested by ENGINEER, be uncovered for observation. 13.7. Uncovering Work as provided in paragraph 13.6 shall be at CONTRACTOR's expense unless CONTRACTOR has given ENGINEER timely, notice of CONTRACTOR's inten- tion to cover the same and ENGINEER has not acted with reasonable promptness in response to such notice. Uncovering Work 13.8. If any Work is covered contrary to the written request of ENGINEER, it must, if requested by ENGINEER, be uncovered for ENGINEER's observation and replaced at CONTRACTOR's expense. 13.9. If ENGINEER considers it necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by ENGINEER or inspected or tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at ENGINEER's re- quest, shall uncover, expose or otherwise make available for observation, inspection or testing as ENGINEER may require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor, material and equipment. If it is found that such Work is defective, CONTRACTOR shall pay all claims, costs, losses and damages caused by, arising out of or resulting from such uncovering, exposure, observation, inspection and testing and of satisfactory replacement or reconstruction (including but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others); and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, may make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11. lf, however, such Work is not found to be defective, CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Times (or Milestones), or both, directly attributable to such uncovering, exposure, ob- servation, inspection, testing, replacement and reconstruction; and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount or extent thereof, CONTRACTOR may make a.claim therefor as pro- vided in Articles 11 and 12. OWNER May Stop the Work 13.10. If the Work is defective, or CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable materials or equip- ment, or fails to furnish or perform the Work in such a way that the completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents, OWNER may order CONTRACTOR to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has been eliminated; however, this right of OWNER to stop the Work 1 shall not give rise to any duty on the part of OWNER to exercise - this -right for the benefit of CONTRACTOR or any surety or other party. Correcfioa or Removal of DefecaveWork 13.11. If required by ENGINEER, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, as directed, either correct all defective Work, whether or not fabricated, installed or completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by ENGINEER, remove it from the site and replace it with Work that is not defective.

Carrecdon Period: 13.12.1. If within one year after the date of Substantial Completion or such longer period of time as may be pre- scribed by Laws or Regulations or by the terms of any applicable special guarantee required by the Contract Dols uments or by any specific provision of the Contract Docu- ments, any Work is found to be defective, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, without cost to OWNER and in accordance with OWNER's written instructions: (1) correct such defec- tive Work, or, if it has been rejected by OWNER, remove it from the site and replace it with Work that is not defective. and (N satisfactorily correct or remove and replace any damage to other Work or the work of others resulting rherefiiom. If CONTRACTOR does not 'promptly comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency where delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, OWNER may have the defective Work corrected or the rejected Work removed arid replaced, and all claims, costs, lasses and damages caused by or resulting from -such re- moval and replacement (mcluding but not limited to all costs of repair or replacement of work of others) wilt be paid by CONTRACTOR.. 13.12.2.

Where de Work (and damage to other Work resulting therefrom) has been corrected, removed or replaced under this paragraph 13.12, the correction period hereunder with respect to such Work will be extended for an additional period of one year after such correction or re- moval and replacement has been satisfactorily completed. Acceptance of Defectve Work: 13.13. 1f, instead of requiring correction or removal and replacement of defective Work, OWNER (and, prior to ENGI- NEER's recommendation of final payment, also ENGINEER) prefers to accept it, OWNER may do so. CONTRACTOR shall 37 pay all claims, costs, losses and damages attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and determination to accept such defective Work (such costs to be approved by ENGINEER as to reasonableness). If any such acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER'S recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and OWNER shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof, OWNER may make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11.

In exercising the rights and remedies under this paragraph OWNER shall pro- ceed expeditiously. In connection with such corrective and remedial action; OWNER may exclude CONTRACTOR from all or part of the site, take possession of all or part of the Work, and suspend CONI'Ri CIOR's services related thereto, take possession of CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construc- tion equipment and machinery at the site and incorporate itt the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are - stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR shall allow OWNER, OWNER's representatives, agents and employees, OWNER'S other con- tractors and ENGINEER and ENGINEER's Consultants ac- cess to the site to enable OWNER to exercise the rights' and remedies under this paragraph. All claims, costs, losses and damages incurred or sustained by OWNER in exercising such rights and remedies will be charged against CONTRACTOR and Change Order will be issued incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Doctnients with respect to the Work; and OWNERshall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price, and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the amount thereof. OWNER may make a claim therefor as provided in Article 11 Such Claims, costs,Ioases -and damages will include but not be limited to all costs of repair or replace rent of work of others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or replacement of CONTRACIOR's defective Work.

ARTICLE 14— PAYMENTS TO CONTRACTOR AND COMPLETION Schedule of Values: 14.1. The schedule of values established as provided in paragraph 2.9 will serve as the basis for progress payments and will be incorporated into a form of Application for Payment acceptable to ENGINEER. Progress payments on account of Unit Price Work will be based on the number of units com- pleted. Application for Progress Payment: 14.2. At least twenty days before the date established for each progress payment (but not more often than once a month), CONTRACTOR shall submit to ENGINEER for review an Application for Payment filled out and signed by CONTRACTOR covering the Work completed as of the date of the Application and accompanied by such supporting . documentation as is required by the Contract Documents. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and equip -. ment not incorporated in the Work but delivered and suitably stored at the site or at another location agreed to in writing, the Application for Payment shall also be accompanied by a bill of sale, invoice or other documentation warranting that OWNER has received the materials and equipment free and clear of all Liens and evidence that the materials and equipment are covered by appropriate property insurance and other arrangements to protect OWNER's interest therein, all of which will be satisfactory to OWNER. The amount of retainage with respect to progress payments will be as stipulated in the Agreement. CONrTRAC►OR's Warranty of Title: 14.3. CONTRACTOR warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will pass to OWNER no later than the time of payment free and clear of all Liens. Review ofAppllcaiions far Progress Payment: 14.4. ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of each Application for Payment, either indicate in writing a recommendation of payment and present the Application to OWNER, or return the Application to CONTRACTOR indi- cating in writing ENGINEER's reasons for refusing to recom- mend payment. In the latter case, CONTRACTOR may make the ner corrections and resubmit the Application. Ten days after presentation of the Application for Payment to OWNER with ENGINEER's recommendation, the amount recommended will (subject to the provisions of the last sen- tence of paragraph 14.7) become due and when due will be paid by OWNER to CONTRACTOR. 14.5. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment re- quested in an Application for Payment will constitute a repre- sentation by ENGINEER to OWNER, based on ENGIN EER's on -site observations of the executed Work as an experienced and qualified design professional and on ENGINEER's review of the Application for Payment and the accompanying data and schedules, that to the best of ENGINEER's knowledge, infor- mation and belief:, 38 14.5.1. the Work has progressed to the point indicated, 14.5.2. the quality of the Work is generally in accor- dance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evalu- ation of.the Work as a functioning whole prior to or upon Substantial Completion, to the results of any subsequent tests called for in the Contract Documents, to a final determination of quantities and classifications for Unit Price Work under paragraph 9.10, and to any other quali- fications stated in the recommendation), and 14.53. the conditions precedent to CONTRACTOR's being entitled to such payment appear to have been fulfilled in so far as it is ENGINEER's responsibility to observe the Work. However, by recommending any such payment ENGINEER will not thereby be deemed to have represented that: (i) exhaustive or continuous on -site inspections have been made to check the quality or the quantity of the Work beyond the responsibilities specifically assigned to ENGINEER in the Contract Documents or (ii) that there may not be other matters or issues between the parties that might entitle CONTRAC- TOR to be paid additionally by OWNER or entitle OWNER to withhold payment to CONTRACTOR. 14.6. ENGINEER's recommendation of any payment, in- cluding final payment, shall not mean that ENGINEER is responsible forCONTRACTOR's means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures of construction, or the safety precau- tions and programs incident thereto, or for any failure of CONTRACTOR to comply with Laws and Regulations appli- cable to the furnishing or performance of Work, or for any failure of CONTRACTOR to perform or furnish Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. 14.7. ENGINEER may refuse to recommend the whole or any part of any payment if, in ENGINEER's opinion, it would be incorrect to make the representations to OWNER referred to in paragraph 14.5. ENGINEER may also refuse to recom- mend any such payment, or, because of subsequently discov- ered evidence or the results of subsequent inspections or tests, nullify any such payment previously recommended, to such extent as may be necessary in ENGINEER's opinion to protect OWNER from loss because: 14.7.1. the Work is defective, or completed Work has been damaged requiring correction or replacement, 14.7.2. the Contract Price has been reduced by Writ- ten Amendment or Change Order, 14.13. OWNER has been required to correct defec- tive Work or complete Work in accordance with paragraph 13.14, or 14.7.4. ENGINEER has actual knowledge of the oc- currence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive. OWNER may refuse to make payment of the full amount recommended by ENGINEER because: 14.7.5. claims have been made against OWNER on account of CONTRACTORS performance or furnishing of the Work, 1 1 1 14.7.6. Liens have been filed in connection with the Work, except where CONTRACTOR has delivered a specific Bond satisfactory to OWNER to secure the satisfaction and discharge of such Liens, 14.7.7. there are other items entitling OWNER to a setoff against the amount recommended, or 14.7.8. OWNER has actual knowledge of the occur- rence of any of the events enumerated in paragraphs 14.7.1 through 14.7.3 or paragraphs 15.2.1 through 15.2.4 inclusive; but OWNER must give CONTRACIOR immediate written notice (with a copy to ENGINEER) stating the reasons for such action and promptly pay CONTRACTOR the amount so withheld, or any adjustment thereto agreed to by OWNER and CONTRACTOR, when CONTRACTOR corrects to OWN - ER's satisfaction the reasons for such action. Subslandal Completion: 14.8. When CONTRACTOR considers the entire Worst ready for its intended use CONTRACTOR shall notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writhe that the entire Work is substantially complete (except for items specifically listed by CONTRAC- TOR as iucoinplete) and request that ENGINEER issue a certificate of Substantial Completion. Within a reasonable time thereafter, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall make an inon of the Work to determine the status of completion. If ENGINEER does not consider the Work sub- stantially complete, ENGINEER will notify CONTRACTOR in writinggiving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers the Werk substantially complete, ENGINEER will prepare and deliver to OWNER a tentative certificated Substantial Com- pletion which shall fix the date of Substantial Completion: There shall be attached to the certificate a tentative' fist ofitems to be completed or corrected before final payment. OWNER shall have seven days after recppt of the tentative certificate during which to make written objection to ENGINEER as to any provisions of the certificate or attached list. 1f,- after considering such objections, ENGINEER concludes that the Work is not substantially complete, ENGINEER wit within fourteen days after submissions of the,tetttative certificate to OWNER notify CONTRACTOR in -writing. stating the reasons therefor. If, aka consideration of OWNER's objections, EN- GINEER considers the Wort substantially complete;'ENGI -' NEER will within said fourteen days execute and deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a definitive certificate of Sub- stantial Completion (with a revised tentative list of kerns to be completed or corrected) reflecting such changes from the tentative certificate as ENGINEER believes justified after consideration of any objections from OWNER. At the time of delivery of the tentative certificate of Substantial Completion ENGINEER will deliver to OWNER and CONTRACTOR a written recommendation as to division of responsibilities pend- ing final payment between OWNER and CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operation, safety, maintenance, hest, utili- ties, insu anceand warranties and guarantees. Unless OWNER and CONTRACTOR agree otherwise in writing and so inform 39 ENGINEER in writing prior to ENGINEER's issuing the definitive certificate of Substantial Completion, ENGINEER's aforesaid recommendation will be binding on OWNER and CONTRACTOR until final payment. 14.9. OWNER shall have the right to exclude CONTRAC- TOR from the Work after the date of Substantial Completion, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to complete or correct items on the tentative list. Partial Udulzation: 14.10. Use by OWNER at OWNER's option of any sub- . stantially completed part of the Work which: (7 has specifically been identified in the Contract Documents, or (it) OWNER, ENGINEER and CONTRACTOR agree constitutes a sepa- rately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by OWNER for its intended purpose without significant inter- ference with CONTRACIDR's performance of the remainder of the Work, may be accomplished prior to Substantial Com- pletion of all the Work subject to the following: 14.10.1. OWNER at any time may request CON- TRACTOR in writing to permit OWNER to use any such part of the Work which OWNER believes to'be ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If CON- TRACTOR agrees that such part of the Work is substan- tially complete CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that such part of the Wort is substan- tially Complete an request ENGINEER to issue a cettl icate of Substantial Completion for that part of the. Work. CONTRACTOR at any time may notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writing that CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended use and substantially complete and regt test ENGINEER to issue a certificate of Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. Within a reasonable time after either such request, OWNER, CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER shall shake an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of completion. If ENGINEER does not Consider that part of the Work to be substantially completc,.ENGI- NEER will notify OWNER and CONTRACTOR in writ- ing giving the reasons therefor. If ENGINEER considers . that part of the Work to be substantially Complete, the provisions of paragraphs_ 14,8 and 149 will apply with respect to certification of Substantial Completion of that part of the Wort and the division of responsibility , in respect there of and access thereto. 14.10.2. No occupancy Or separate operation of part of the Work will be accomplished prior to compliance with the requirements of paragraph 5.15 in respect of property insurance. FinalInspeedon: 14.11. Upon written notice from CONTRACTOR that the entire Work or an agreed portion thereof is complete, ENGI- NEER will make a final inspection with OWNER and CON- TRACTOR and will notify CONTRACTOR in writing of all particulars in which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. CONTRACTOR shall immediately take such measures as are necessary to complete such Work or remedy such deficiencies. Final Application for Payment: 14.12. After CONTRACTOR has completed all such cor- rections to the satisfaction of ENGINEER and delivered in accordance with the Contract Documents all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees. Bonds, certifi- cates or other evidence of insurance required by paragraph 5.4, certificates of inspection, marked -up record documents (as provided in paragraph 6.19) and other documents, CONTRAC- TOR may make application for final payment following the procedure for progress payments. The final Application for Payment shall be accompanied (except as previously delivered) by: (i) all documentation called for in the Contract Documents, including but not limited to the evidence of insurance required by subparagraph 5.4.13. (ii) consent of the surety, if any, to final payment, and (iii) complete and legally effective releases or waivers (satisfactory to OWNER) of all Liens arising out of or filed in connection with the Work. In lieu of such releases or waivers of Liens and as approved by OWNER, CONTRAC- TOR may furnish receipts or releases in full and an affidavit of CONTRACTOR that (1) the releases and receipts include all labor, services, material and equipment for which a Lien could be filed, and a all payrolls, material and equipment bills and otherindebtednessconnected with the Work for which OWNER or OWNER's property might in any way be responsible have been paid or otherwise satisfied. If any Subcontractor or Supplier fails to furnish such a release or receipt in full, CONTRACTOR may furnish a Bond or other collateral satis- factory to OWNER to indemnify OWNER against any Lien. Final Payment and Acceptance: 14.13. If, on the basis of ENGINEER's observation of the Work during construction and final inspection, and ENGI- NEER's review of the final Application for Payment and accompanying documentation as required by the Contract Documents, ENGINEER is satisfied that the Work has been completed and CONTRACTOR's other obligations under the Contract Docttntents have been fulfilled, ENGINEER will, within ten days after receipt of the final Application for Payment, indicate in writing ENGINEER's recommendation of payment and present the Application to OWNER for pay- ment. At the same time ENGINEER will also give written notice to OWNER and CONTRACTOR that the Work is acceptable subject to the provisions of paragraph 14.15. Oth- erwise, ENGINEER will return the Application to CON- TRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend final payment, in which case CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and resubmit the Application. Thirty days after the presentation to OWNER of the Applica- tion and accompanying documentation, in appropriate form and substance and with ENGINEER's recommendation and notice of acceptability, the amount recommended by ENGI- NEER will become due and will be paid by OWNER to 40 CONTRACTOR. 14.14. If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final com- pletion of the Work is significantly delayed and if ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER shall, upon receipt of CONTRACTOR's final Application for Payment and recommendation of ENGI- NEER, and without terminating the Agreement, make pay- ment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. lithe remaining balance to be held by OWNER for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished as required in paragraph 5.1, the written con- sent of the surety to the payment of the balance due for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by CONTRACTOR to ENGINEER with the Appli- cation for such payment. Such payment shall be made under the terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of claims. Waiver of Clams: 14.15. The making and acceptance of final payment will constitute: 14.15.1. a waiver of all claims by OWNER against CONTRACTOR, except claims arising from unsettled Liens, from defective Work appearing after final inspection pursu- ant to paragraph 14.11, from failure to comply with the Contract Documents or the terms of any special guarantees specified therein, or from CONTRACTOR's continuing ob- ligations under the Contract Documents; and 14.15.2. a waiver of all claims by CONTRACTOR against OWNER other than those previously made in writing and still unsettled. ARTICLE I5—SUSPENSION OF WORK AND TERMINATION OWNER May Suspend Work: 15.1. At any time and without cause, OWNER may sus- pend the Work or any portion thereof for a period of not more than ninety days by notice in writing to CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER which will fix the date on which Work.will be resumed. CONTRACTOR shall resume the Work on the date so fixed. CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an adjustment in the Contract Price or an extension of the Contract Times, or both, directly attributable to any such suspension if CONTRACTOR makes an approved claim therefor as provided in Articles 1 t and 12. OWNER May Terminate: 15.2.
