E-1 DRAFT EXHIBIT F – EQUAL OPPORTUNITY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACTING PROCEDURES 1 OWNER’S POLICY a) The policy of the Denver Public Schools with respect to equal opportunity contracting was established by Board of Education Resolution 2621. That policy commits the Owner to the creation and preservation of equal opportunities for all people to participate in the delivery of goods and services through the contracting processes of the Denver Public Schools without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, religion, age, or disability. It is the express expectation of the Board of Education that those who contract with the Owner shall in turn make available equal opportunities to the extent third parties are engaged to provide goods and services to the Owner as subcontractors, vendors, or otherwise. b) Pursuant to resolution 2621, the contracting policies and practices of the Owner are to conform to the following parameters: c) No person shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or otherwise discriminated against in connection with the award and performance of any contract on the grounds of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, age, or disability. d) Neither the gender, race, ethnicity, religion, age, nor disability of any contractor or subcontractor shall be a factor in the evaluation of any proposal or award of any contract. e) Any party contracting with the Owner for the provision of goods or services shall be required to agree as a condition of the contract not to discriminate on any of the foregoing grounds in the performance of the contract. f) Information regarding contracting opportunities with the Owner shall be disseminated in a manner calculated to reach all persons qualified to provide pertinent goods and services. g) The criteria used in evaluating contract proposals shall be based on the Owner’s interest in securing cost effective, quality goods and services and shall not exclude or disadvantage parties for reasons that are not closely related to those interests. h) In determining contract requirements care shall be taken to encourage submission of quotes or proposals from as wide a base of potential vendors as is reasonably possible. i) Owner contracts for the provision of goods or services shall require that the contracting parties disseminate information regarding any third party contracting opportunities in a manner reasonably calculated to reach all persons qualified and willing to participate. j) Owner contracts for the provision of goods or services shall require that the contracting party retain and make available to the Owner records regarding dissemination of information regarding third party contracting opportunities, including responses received by the contracting party. 2 DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION a) Pursuant to Resolution 2621 contracting opportunities and processes shall be disseminated as follows: F-1 (1) Dissemination of Information by the Owner (a) The Owner shall disseminate information regarding construction contracting opportunities by placing advertisements in a local newspaper of general circulation to all potentially interested contractors and subcontractors in the community. In addition, the Owner shall make plans available for construction projects in its Construction Services Office, in the offices of the project architect, and at suitable locations within the community where those plans may be reviewed by interested contractors and subcontractors free of charge. (2) Dissemination of Information by Contractors (a) Each contractor shall place advertisements inviting bids or proposals on all work not to be performed by the contractor itself. At minimum, such advertisements shall be placed in a newspaper or trade journal of general circulation within the Denver metropolitan area for at least one (1) day. Such advertising may be excused only with written permission of the Owner’s Construction Services office, under circumstances where such advertisement would be impractical or would not reasonably further the equal opportunity contracting policy of the Owner. A contractor participating in more than one project may consolidate its advertisements to save costs. 3 DATA COLLECTION AND REPORTING a) Pursuant to Resolution 2621 the Owner’s Purchasing Department is responsible for collecting and maintaining information necessary to permit the Owner to determine the effectiveness of Owner contracting policies and practices in ensuring equal opportunity. Such information will be collected, maintained, and reported as follows: (1) Subcontractor Bidding Phase (a) Each Contractor shall promptly provide to the Owner’s Purchasing Director copies of advertisements placed pursuant to these procedures. (b) The Contractor shall provide to the Owner’s Purchasing and Manager of the Business Diversity Outreach Program a completed Subcontractor Participation Report when the Contractor has collected the bids from which it intends to select Subcontractors. A form of this report is available from the Owner. The Contractor shall provide data on all subcontractors contacted during the bid period and on each bid received from all subcontractors. Such list shall identify which, if any, of the firms on the list are, to the best of the Contractor’s information, certified diverse businesses (“Certified Diverse Businesses”). Certified Diverse Business firms are defined for purposes of this procedure as businesses owned or controlled by Native Americans, Asian Americans, African Americans, Hispanics, or women. A business is deemed owned by whoever holds at least 51% of the equity interest in the enterprise. A business is deemed controlled by its chief executive officer (if the business is a corporation), its managing partner (if business is a partnership), the proprietor (if the business is a sole proprietorship), and in all cases by the person or persons with ultimate decision-making authority in the ongoing, day-to-day operation of the business. For a diverse business to become a Certified Diverse Business, the diverse business must obtain certification from a governmental agency, an industry recognized third party certification organization or the Owner may recognize the diverse business as “certified”. F-2 (c) The information required by the preceding paragraph shall promptly be supplemented each time a subcontractor is replaced or an additional subcontractor is retained. (d) To facilitate identification of Certified Diverse Businesses, the Owner will place on its Website the “Denver Public Schools Diverse Business Directory”. Contractors may also utilize the websites of the City & County of Denver, www.denvergov.org, Rocky Mountain Minority Supplier Development Council, www.rmmsdc.org, U.S. Small Business Administration, www.sba.gov, State of Colorado/DBE Certification, www.dot.state.co.us/eeo/certification, and Regional Transportation District, www.rtd-denver.com. (e) The Owner’s Purchasing Department shall verify and compile all data received from contractors regarding Certified Diverse Business usage and shall report such data to the Board of Education. Each report shall set forth: (i) The identity of each Certified Diverse Business firm (ii) The type of work done by each Certified Diverse Business firm (iii) The dollar amount of the contracts with such firms (iv) The dollar amount of Certified Diverse Business participation on each specific project (v) The dollar amount of Certified Diverse Business participation on all projects in total during any reporting period (vi) The percentage of the dollar volume of Certified Diverse Business participation in each project (vii) The percentage of the dollar volume of Certified Diverse Business participation on all projects in total 4 RECORDS RETENTION AND INSPECTION a) Each contractor shall retain and make available to the Owner and its designees records sufficient to permit the Owner to ascertain compliance with the equal opportunity contracting requirements. The following records shall be maintained and made available for inspection by the Owner and its designees: (1) All records reflecting any invitations to submit bids or proposals regarding subcontracting opportunities on any Owner project, including, but not limited to: (2) Copies of advertisements placed by the contractor in any newspaper or trade journal (3) Copies of requests for proposals or bid solicitations sent to any potential subcontractors, including names and addresses of each person or entity to whom such solicitations or proposals were sent (4) Logs showing persons contacted by telephone or in person regarding bid opportunities F-3 (5) All responses received to invitations to bid on subcontracting opportunities, including written responses and notes, memoranda, or other records of oral responses. (6) All correspondence accepting, rejecting, qualifying, revising, or otherwise related to any invitation to bid subcontracting opportunities or responses thereto. 5 CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS a) Pursuant to Resolution 2621 each Owner contract with any contractor shall contain the following provisions: b) Denver Public Schools intends that the contracting processes of the Owner and its contractors provide equal opportunity without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, religion, age, or disability, and that its contractors make available equal opportunities to the extent third parties are engaged to provide goods and services to the Owner as subcontractors, vendors, or otherwise. Accordingly, the contractor shall not discriminate on any of the foregoing grounds in the performance of the contract and shall make available equal opportunities to the extent third parties are engaged to provide goods or services in connection with performance of the contract. c) The contractor shall disseminate information regarding all subcontracting opportunities under this contract in a manner reasonably calculated to reach all qualified potential subcontractors who may be interested. The contractor shall maintain records demonstrating its compliance with this article and shall make such records available to the Owner upon the Owner’s request. d) In implementing the foregoing provisions the contractor shall comply with and be bound by the Owner’s equal opportunity construction contracting procedures in all respects. Such procedures are hereby incorporated by reference and are made a material part of this contract, violation of which may be deemed grounds for termination of the contract by the Owner. 6 ENFORCEMENT a) The Owner’s equal employment opportunity construction contracting requirements shall be enforced under the direction of the Owner’s Chief Operating Officer who shall cause to be implemented the following steps: (1) Compliance Review (a) Contractor compliance with the advertising and Certified Diverse Business identification requirements of these procedures shall be verified in each instance. In addition, contractor records shall be reviewed and the information contained in those records verified to such extent as the Chief Operating Officer deems appropriate to ensure compliance with these procedures. (2) Complaints (a) Any person who believes any person or firm has been subject to discrimination with respect to contracting opportunities, or that any contractor has failed to fulfill the requirements of these procedures, may file a complaint in writing with the Owner’s Purchasing Director, who shall cause a prompt investigation to be undertaken regarding that complaint. F-4 (3) Reasonable Cause Notice (a) If an audit, review, or investigation results in a determination of reasonable cause to believe that a contractor is not in compliance with these procedures, the Purchasing Director shall cause notice be given to the contractor in person or by registered mail identifying the area of noncompliance and requiring the contractor to show cause why specified sanctions should not be imposed. The notice shall advise the contractor that he may review the evidence supporting such reasonable cause determination and that he may submit a written response to such determination and request a hearing before the Chief Operating Officer regarding such determination and any sanction to be imposed. The notice shall further set forth the sanction proposed for such noncompliance. (4) Hearing (a) If a contractor requests a hearing regarding a reasonable cause determination, the Chief Operating Officer, or his designee shall hold a hearing at which such information and argument relevant to the determination shall be presented. The hearing shall be informal and the rules of evidence shall not be applied. (5) Decision (a) Following receipt of the contractor’s response to the reasonable cause notice, or following a hearing, if one is requested, the Chief Operating Officer, or his designee shall issue a decision making finding with respect to the contractor’s compliance or noncompliance with these procedures and imposing such sanctions, if any, as are appropriate. Such decision shall be final and binding. (6) Contractor’s Cooperation (a) Each contractor shall cooperate with the Owner in auditing, reviewing compliance, and investigating complaints. Such cooperation shall include maintaining and producing records required by these procedures and making available to the Owner personnel who have such information pertinent to these procedures. No contractor shall retaliate against any person or firm, or attempt to intimidate or coerce any person or firm for registering a complaint or cooperating with an investigation related to these procedures. Nor shall any contractor knowingly provide any false or inaccurate information in connection with any audit, review, or investigation. (7) Sanctions (a) Sanctions to be imposed for violations of these procedures may include one or more of the following: (i) Forfeiture of opportunities to bid on Owner work for a specified time period or for specified projects (ii) Disqualification from the Owner’s list of approved contractors that are considered for district-wide projects, either permanently, or for a specified time period (iii) Contract termination F-5 (iv) Such other sanctions as may be deemed appropriate to effectuate the purposes of these procedures F-6 DRAFT EXHIBIT G – SCHEDULE REQUIREMENTS 1.

If any of the provisions of the exhibits attached to the Agreement hereto or of any of the Contract Documents are inconsistent with the provisions of the Agreement, the provisions of the Agreement shall control. 1.2.5 Any references to “days” in any Contract Documents refer to calendar days. Any references in any Contract Documents or any communications between Owner and Contractor to “business days” refer to days when Owner’s administrative offices are open for the regular conduct of business.

Such schedule shall be subject to approval by Owner, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld. If Owner does not approve such schedule, it shall specify the portions thereof that it does not approve and give reasons why Owner is withholding approval, and Contractor shall revise the schedule. Such schedule, or any revision thereof, when approved by Owner is called the “Schedule of Values.” 2.2 Progress Payments. Owner shall make monthly payments (each a “Progress Payment”) on account of the Contract as follows: General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 5 Denver Public Schools 2.2.1 Application for Payment. 2.2.1.1 Before Work commences, Owner shall designate a day of the month by which Applications for Payment shall be due.

Each Application for Payment shall further constitute the representation and warranty of Contractor (whether or not specifically stated) that the percentage of the Work represented to have been done in each category provided on the Schedule of Values has, in fact, been completed as of the last day of the period for which such Application for Payment has been submitted. The period covered by an Application for Payment shall end not earlier than ten (10) days before the due date for the Application for Payment, unless Contractor and Owner agree otherwise in writing. 2.2.1.3 Each Application for Payment shall set forth the status of all Proposed Changes, Change Directives, and Change Orders. 2.2.1.4 Contractor shall promptly submit such additional information and documents as Owner or Architect may reasonably request in support of the Application for Payment. 2.2.2 Retainage. Until the Work has been completed and all conditions to Final Payment have been satisfied, Owner shall be entitled to retain from each Progress Payment five percent (5%) of the amount that would otherwise be due to the Contractor (the “Retainage”). 2.2.3 Warranty of Title to Work Completed. Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all work, materials, and equipment covered by an Application for Payment, whether incorporated in the Work or not, will pass to Owner upon the receipt of such payment by Contractor, free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests, or other encumbrances, including all claims of Subcontractors, Suppliers, and any others providing work or materials for the Project, or who might be entitled to make a claim based thereon. No work, materials, or equipment covered by an Application for Payment shall have been acquired subject to an agreement under which an interest therein or an encumbrance thereon is retained by the seller or otherwise imposed by Contractor or by other persons who perform any work at the Site or furnish any materials or equipment for the Work. Although title to all components and aspects of the Work which are in place and title to all materials on account of which any payment has been made to Contractor shall be granted to Owner in accordance with this Section, Contractor shall continue to provide for General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 6 Denver Public Schools adequate protection of all Work until Substantial Completion. Contractor shall make good any damage, injury, or loss to Work prior to Substantial Completion except to the extent such damage, injury, or loss is caused by Owner, its contractors, suppliers, agents, licensees, guests, or invitees. 2.2.4 Payment of Subcontractors and Suppliers. Contractor shall promptly pay all amounts due to Subcontractors, Suppliers, and any others engaged by Contractor for the Work. Whether or not expressly stated, each Application for Payment to Owner will constitute a warranty and representation from Contractor to Owner that all Work previously paid for by Owner is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and claims and that all Subcontractors, Suppliers, and others engaged by Contractor for such Work have been paid all amounts due to them on account of payments previously made by Owner to Contractor. Owner may, at its option, pay Subcontractors, Suppliers and other vendors directly or by checks issued to Contractor and such persons jointly. 2.2.5 Payments for Pre-Requisitioned Materials. The costs of materials purchased and stored in accordance with all applicable provisions of the Contract Documents but not yet installed may be included in the applicable category of costs for an Application for Payment when stored, provided that such costs shall not be included again when the materials are installed, and Owner shall be entitled to a credit for the value of any such materials not actually incorporated in the Work. Payments to be made on account of such materials shall be conditioned upon submission of bills of sale or such other documents or procedures satisfactory to Owner to establish Owner’s unencumbered title to such materials or equipment or otherwise to protect Owner’s interest. 2.2.6 Right to Audit; Non-Waiver. Payment of any Progress Payment by Owner shall not foreclose the right of Owner to examine the books and records of Contractor applicable to the Contract to determine the correctness and accuracy of any item and shall not constitute an acceptance by Owner of the Work covered thereby or a waiver of any claim or right which Owner may have with regard to such Work or the Application for Payment. 2.2.7 Certificate for Payment. 2.2.7.1 The Architect shall, within ten (10) days after receipt of the Contractor’s Application for Payment, either certify the same to Owner for payment (with a copy to the Contractor) or notify Contractor and Owner of the reasons for withholding certification, which the Architect may withhold in whole or in part if it determines in its professional judgment that it cannot make the representations required by this Section 2.2.7 with respect thereto or for other good cause (including any of the causes listed in Section 2.4 below except Section 2.4.1). 2.2.7.2 The issuance of a certificate for payment shall constitute a representation by the Architect to the Owner, to the best of the Architect’s knowledge, information and belief based on the observation of the Work required by the Architect’s agreement with the Owner, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, subject to minor deviations to be corrected prior to completion and specific qualifications the Architect may set forth in its certificate. The issuance of such a certificate shall not be construed as a representation that the Architect has evaluated construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures. Such a certificate for payment shall not be construed as a determination binding upon Owner of any of the matters described in this Section 2.2.7.2. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 7 Denver Public Schools 2.3 Time for Progress Payment. Subject to the provisions of Section 2.4 below, Owner shall make Progress Payments based on Applications for Payment within thirty (30) days after the date each application is properly submitted; provided, however, that if an Application for Payment is submitted after the day of the month it is due, payment thereon shall be made within thirty (30) days after the due date of the next Application for Payment. 2.4 Owner’s Ability to Withhold Payment. Architect may decline to approve, or Owner may decline to make payment of, any portion of a Progress Payment that is not then payable in accordance herewith and may decline to make payment of any other portion of a Progress Payment which is reasonably necessary to protect Owner from any loss because of any of the following: 2.4.1 Architect’s withholding of certification of the Progress Payment or the applicable portion thereof. 2.4.2 Defective portions of the Work not corrected (for which an Application for Payment has been submitted). 2.4.3 Damage by Contractor to property not included in the Work. 2.4.4 Failure of Contractor to obtain necessary permits or licenses or to comply with Current Laws. 2.4.5 Failure to submit required progress reports. 2.4.6 Failure to keep a superintendent on the Site during Construction Work. 2.4.7 Failure of Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors, Suppliers, and others for labor, materials, or equipment, the filing of claims for payment with respect to part of the Work, or a reasonable likelihood exists that a claim will be made. 2.4.8 A reasonable likelihood exists that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum. 2.4.9 The Work cannot be Substantially Completed by the Required Substantial Completion Date, as extended, if applicable, pursuant to the terms of the Contract Documents, and the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover the sum of (i) the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum plus (ii) liquidated damages or other damages for the anticipated delay. 2.4.10 Failure of Contractor to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents. 2.4.11 The Work has not reached the stage of completion claimed in the Application for Payment or, for any other reason, payment is not then due hereunder. 2.4.12 Claims filed in connection with the Work or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims. 2.4.13 Amounts due and unpaid from Contractor to Owner under the Contract or any other agreement. 2.4.14 Any other cause that reasonably justifies withholding payment either (i) to assure the full and timely performance by Contractor hereunder or (ii) to protect Owner from loss or damage hereunder. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 8 Denver Public Schools 2.4.15 If Owner withholds any portion of a Progress Payment, it shall be obligated to pay the undisputed balance of the Progress Payment, as set forth in the Application for Payment, less the amount reasonably estimated by Owner as necessary to protect Owner from the losses enumerated under this Section 2.4. No such withholding in good faith shall constitute an Event of Default by Owner or entitle Contractor to stop the Work. 2.5 Payment upon Final Completion. 2.5.1 Full payment of the Contract Sum, including all Retainage previously withheld (the “Final Payment”), shall be due and payable within sixty (60) days after (i) Final Completion has been achieved and the Contract has otherwise been fully performed by Contractor except for Contractor’s responsibility to correct defective or nonconforming Work not yet discovered as provided in Article 11, and to satisfy other requirements, if any, which necessarily survive Final Payment; (ii) Contractor has submitted to Owner and Architect Contractor’s Application for Final Payment; (iii) if required by the Agreement, a final accounting for the Cost of Work has been submitted by Contractor and reviewed by Owner and its consultants; (iv) any adjustments in the Final Payment required by such an accounting have been made; (v) Contractor has given Owner written notice that all of the documents and materials required by this Section 2.5.1 have all been delivered; and (vi) all of the following items have been provided to Owner and Architect or otherwise satisfied: 2.5.1.1 Contractor’s affidavit that all payrolls and bills for materials, equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which Owner has paid Contractor prior to the time of the Application for Payment have been paid or otherwise satisfied. 2.5.1.2 Consent of surety to Final Payment. 2.5.1.3 Reasonable evidence in the form of a “contractor certification” of material compliance with all requirements of the Contract Documents, together with (A) the operation and maintenance manuals required by Section 4.10; (B) keys for any newly keyed doors with a keying schedule (master, sub-master, and special keys); (C) certificates of all tests and inspections; (D) all existing printed or typewritten operating, servicing, maintenance, and cleaning instructions for all Work, including parts lists and special tools for mechanical and electrical Work; and (E) any similar materials reasonably requested by Owner. 2.5.1.4 A complete set of redline Construction Documents, including all plans and specifications, depicting and describing the condition of the Work as constructed (“As-Builts”), sufficient in the Architect’s judgment for the Architect to prepare final and complete as-built drawings and specifications for the Work. 2.5.1.5 A certificate (or, at Owner’s option, endorsements) evidencing that insurance required by the Contract Documents to remain in force, if any, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire without at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Owner. 2.5.1.6 A written statement that Contractor knows of no reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents. 2.5.1.7 Acceptance of the Final Payment by Contractor shall constitute a waiver of claims by Contractor except those previously made in writing and identified by Contractor as unsettled at the time of Application for Final Payment and except General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 9 Denver Public Schools for any disputed amounts that are pending any final cost accounting process required by the Agreement. 2.5.1.8 If, after Substantial Completion, the Final Completion of the Work is prevented through delay in the correction and completion of items on the Punch List by causes beyond the control of the Contractor, the Owner may, in its sole discretion, pay Contractor any of the amounts that would otherwise be due in Final Payment except that Owner shall retain an amount equal to three hundred percent (300%) of the cost of completing and correcting such incomplete or unacceptable Work, as reasonably estimated by Owner. 2.6 2.7 Final Settlement – Subcontractor and Supplier Claims 2.6.1 Before Final Payment is made, Owner will advertise the final settlement of the Contract by two (2) publications of notice thereof pursuant to C.R.S. § 38-26-107, the last of which shall be published not less than ten (10) days before the date set for final settlement. If any unpaid claim for labor, materials, rental machinery, tools, equipment, sustenance, or other supplies used or consumed in connection with the Work is filed, Owner shall withhold from the Final Payment amounts sufficient, in Owner’s reasonable determination, to insure the payment of such claim until such claim shall have been paid or withdrawn, such payment or withdrawal to be evidenced by filing with the Owner a receipt in full or an order for withdrawal signed by the claimant or his duly authorized agent or assignee. 2.6.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph, funds retained for the payment of claims filed with the Owner shall not be withheld longer than ninety (90) days following the date fixed for final settlement as published unless an action is commenced within that time to enforce such unpaid claim and a notice of lis pendens is filed with the Owner. 2.6.3 At the expiration of the ninety-day period, Owner shall pay to the Contractor such amounts as are not the subject of suit and lis pendens notices and shall retain thereafter, subject to the final outcome of such suits, only sufficient funds to insure the payment of judgments that may result from the suit. 2.6.4 If any claim for such labor, materials, supplies or equipment remains unsatisfied after Final Payment, Contractor shall refund to Owner all sums which the Owner may for any reason be obligated to pay to satisfy such claim, including all costs and attorneys' fees incurred by Owner in connection therewith.

Taxes; Direct Purchase Option. 2.8.1 Contractor shall only include sales and use tax levied by the City and County of Denver on materials from its Schedules of Values, and Subcontractors and Suppliers shall only include such amounts in their bids. Except as provided in Section 2.8.2 below, the Owner will furnish to Contractor, on request by the Contractor, the necessary exemption certificates to aid the Contractor in the recovery or avoidance of any such taxes paid or otherwise due to be paid by Contractor for materials and equipment built into the Project, or to support the Contractor's failure to pay such taxes, as the case may be. 2.8.2 Contractor and its Subcontractors shall be responsible to obtain from the Colorado State Department of Revenue certificates for exemption indicating that the purchase of construction building materials for the Work is for a purpose stated in Colorado Revised Statutes Section 39-26-114(1)(a)(XIX). 2.8.3 At Owner’s option, Contractor and Owner shall cooperate with one another so that Owner may purchase or contract directly for such items or Contractor and Owner shall make other appropriate arrangements as necessary to avoid incurring taxes, fees, and other costs. In such circumstances, Contractor shall act as agent for Owner in effecting such purchasing and contracting, Contractor shall have all the responsibilities as to such portions of the Work as Contractor otherwise has with respect to the Work. Contractor shall be responsible to expedite, arrange for and receive delivery of all such purchases, regardless of whether made by Contractor or Owner, and shall promptly examine deliveries to ascertain whether or not they comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents. Contractor shall promptly notify the Owner and Architect of any delay in the delivery of such purchases, any failure to receive such purchases as needed and any failure of such purchases to comply with the Contract Documents 2.8.4 To the extent that Owner makes any payments directly to Suppliers, such payments shall be credited against the payments due from Owner to Contractor hereunder and shown, as incurred, on all Applications for Payment. Owner shall promptly notify Contractor and Architect, on serially numbered forms, of any amount paid directly for materials, any discounts obtained by Owner, and the amount of the credit due to Owner. 2.8.5 Contractor shall pay all sales, consumer, use, and other similar taxes required by law, all as part of the Contract Sum, except to the extent of the exemptions that may be available to Contractor or Owner as provided above. Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment (increase) in the Contract Sum to the extent that an increase in the aggregate amount of such taxes payable by Contractor hereunder results from any change in Current Laws creating such taxes or increasing the rate of such taxes enacted after the date of the Agreement. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 11 Denver Public Schools 2.9 Discounts. All discounts for prompt payment obtained by Contractor shall accrue to Owner to the extent they apply to Costs of Work payable by Owner (whether paid directly or reimbursed to Contractor). To the extent that such discounts apply to costs paid by Contractor without reimbursement, such discounts shall accrue to Contractor. All trade discounts, rebates and refunds, and all returns from sale of surplus or salvage materials and equipment, shall accrue to the benefit of Owner, and the Contractor’s agreements with others shall provide for such credits to be applied either through credits from Subcontractors and Suppliers passed through to Owner by Contractor or by payment directly to Owner. 2.10 Adjustments. The Contract Sum (or, if the Agreement is a CMGC Agreement, the Guaranteed Maximum Price) may be adjusted by Agreed Change. Contractor is obligated to pay out of its own funds any overruns of the Contract Sum (or, if the Agreement is a CMGC Agreement, the Guaranteed Maximum Price) not approved by Agreed Change as provided in Section 5.1.2. Article 3. COMPLETION, TIME, AND DELAYS IN CONSTRUCTION 3.1 Time of the Essence. The Work shall be performed in accordance with the Milestone Schedule and other schedules approved by Owner under the Contract, subject to Excused Delay and adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and these General Conditions of the Contract. 3.2 Substantial Completion. “Substantial Completion” shall have been achieved when the Work is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so (i) Owner can occupy and utilize the Site for its intended use, (ii) a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy for the Project (or, if the AHJ does not issue certificates of occupancy for projects like the Project and a certificate of occupancy is not necessary for Owner’s use of the Project for its intended purpose, a certificate of compliance) and all other governmental permits for the occupancy and use of all of the Project have been issued, (iii) all systems to be constructed or installed by Contractor are fully functional, (iv) Contractor has delivered the As-Builts, and (v) the Work is complete except for minor items set forth on the Punch List which are not required to be completed for Owner to occupy and use the Building for its intended purpose, which can reasonably be completed within thirty (30) days, and the completion of which while Owner and its licensees occupy the Site will not interfere with such use and occupancy of the Site (including applicable parking and recreational facilities) for their intended purpose and will not delay or render more expensive in any material way the completion and correction of the Punch List items. Contractor acknowledges that the standard for Substantial Completion of an educational facility is significantly more stringent than the standard customary in the construction industry generally because of the intensive uses to which educational facilities are put. Contractor shall construct the Work and achieve Substantial Completion of all Work on or before the Required Substantial Completion Date. 3.3 Final Completion. “Final Completion” shall have been achieved when (i) all of the Work has been finally completed in accordance with the Contract Documents and all final certificates of occupancy required by Current Laws have been issued, (ii) the walk-through inspection of the Work confirms completion of the Punch List items, and (iii) any other matters required to be completed to finish the Work and render the Project fully complete and ready for use and occupancy shall have been completed. When Contractor has completed the Punch List items for the Work, Contractor shall request a walk-through inspection to confirm the completion of those items, which Owner and Contractor shall schedule at a mutually convenient time, but in no event later than five (5) business days after Contractor notifies Owner of its completion of the Punch List for such portion of the Work. Contractor shall achieve Final Completion of all Work on or before the Required Final Completion Date. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 12 Denver Public Schools 3.4 Excused Delay. If Contractor is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work or the Required Substantial Completion Date is delayed due to the following causes (“Excused Delay”), the Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date shall be extended by a period of time equal to the number of days of Excused Delay (provided that, for any day on which two or more Excused Delays overlap, Contractor shall be allowed only one day of Excused Delay): 3.4.1 3.4.2 Owner Delay. 3.4.1.1 An “Owner Delay” shall be a delay caused (i) by the act or neglect of Owner, (ii) (if the Agreement is a CMGC Agreement) by the failure of Owner during the Design Phases to approve or submit comments on any Submission or other plans in the time required by the Project Schedule approved by Owner, or (iii) by the failure of Owner to execute any documents necessary for the performance of the Work, including the granting of easements across the Site or the disbursal of necessary funds to Contractor for payments of amounts due to Contractor hereunder (not including amounts being disputed); but only to the extent that the act giving rise to the claimed Owner Delay actually delays progress on the critical path to completion of the Work. 3.4.1.2 In order to claim that an Owner Delay has occurred, Contractor shall be required to notify Owner of the claimed Owner Delay promptly, and in any event before the end of the second (2nd) business day, after the start of the claimed Owner Delay. Any such notice shall specify the occurrence of the claimed Owner Delay, the nature of the cause of the claimed Owner Delay, and the Work that is affected by the claimed Owner Delay. An Owner Delay shall be deemed to have commenced on the day that it begins if such notice is timely given, or, if such notice is not timely given, shall be deemed to have commenced on the first business day after such notice is given. Weather Delay. 3.4.2.1 In order for a weather delay (a “Weather Delay”) to occur, the Lost Weather Days in any calendar month must exceed the normal number of such days for such month set forth below. The Weather Delay, if any, shall be the number of days of such excess; provided that no Weather Delay shall have occurred except to the extent that Work which needs to be performed during the period of time affected by adverse weather is actually delayed in a manner that delays the critical path to completion of the Work. To the extent that the number of Lost Weather Days in any month is smaller than the normal number of Lost Weather Days in such month set forth below, the difference shall be carried forward to the following month (and, to the extent not then consumed, the ensuing months) and used to offset any Lost Weather Days in such following month or months. Contractor and Owner agree that the normal number of such delays for each month is as follows: January: February: March: April: May: June: July: August: General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 6 days 6 days 5 days 5 days 5 days 4 days 4 days 4 days 13 Denver Public Schools September: October: November: December: 3.4.3 3.4.4 3 day 4 days 5 days 6 days 3.4.2.2 As used herein, a “Lost Weather Day” shall mean a day during which actual adverse weather prevents work on activities that need to be performed on that day in accordance with the Project Schedule for fifty percent (50%) or more of Contractor’s scheduled Work for such day. 3.4.2.3 Contractor shall report, by facsimile notice, to Owner (i) no later than 10:30 a.m. (in the time zone in which the Site is located) on each day Contractor claims to be a Lost Weather Day or (ii) if Work on the Project has commenced for such day, within one hour of Contractor’s decision to suspend Work because of such adverse weather. Such report shall state that Contractor considers that a Lost Weather Day is occurring and shall describe the weather conditions experienced and how the weather conditions have affected the Scheduled Work for such day. Unless Contractor gives such timely notice as to any day when work is adversely affected by adverse weather, Contractor shall not be entitled to claim such day is a Lost Weather Day. Force Majeure Delays. 3.4.3.1 A “Force Majeure Delay” shall be a delay which could not reasonably have been anticipated or avoided by Contractor and which is caused by labor disputes (which are not limited in effect to Contractor or the Subcontractor, SubSubcontractor, or Supplier but are generally applicable to contractors at least in the area where the portion of the Work affected is being performed); fire; flood; earthquake; riot; war; insurrection; unusual delay in transportation (which is generally applicable in the area where the portion of the Work affected is being performed); fuel, material, or labor shortages (which are generally applicable in the area where the portion of the Work affected is being performed); unavailability, action, or inaction of public authorities (including delay of governmental approvals in excess of that normally to be expected, as shown on the Milestone Schedule) not arising out of the fault of Contractor; or unavoidable casualties; provided that delays caused by adverse weather conditions shall not be Force Majeure Delays. No Force Majeure Delay shall have occurred, however, except to the extent that the critical path to completion of the Work is actually delayed. 3.4.3.2 In order to claim that a Force Majeure Delay has occurred, Contractor shall be required to notify Owner promptly, and in any event within two (2) business days, after the claimed Force Majeure Delay becomes known to Contractor. Any such notice shall specify the occurrence of the claimed Force Majeure Delay, the nature of the cause of the claimed Force Majeure Delay, the Work that is affected by the claimed Force Majeure Delay, and whether such Force Majeure Delay has ended (in which case the date on which it ended shall be stated) or is then continuing. A Force Majeure Delay shall be deemed to have commenced on the day that it begins if such notice is timely given, or, if such notice is not timely given, shall be deemed to have commenced on the day after such notice is given. Any dispute as to whether an Excused Delay has occurred shall be a Dispute and shall, at the request of either Contractor or Owner, be submitted to Dispute Resolution. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 14 Denver Public Schools 3.5 3.6 Guarantee of Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date Date. 3.5.1 Time is of the essence in the Contract with respect to the Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date. As a remedy for Contractor’s failure to meet the Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date (as each may be extended by the terms of the Contract Documents), Contractor shall be liable for liquidated damages for each day after the Required Substantial Completion Date until the Work is Substantially Complete and each day after the Required Final Completion Date until the Work is Finally Complete. 3.5.2 Should Contractor fail to Substantially Complete the Work by the Required Substantial Completion Date, Contractor shall pay to Owner as liquidated damages the amounts set forth on Exhibit A to the Agreement for each day after the Required Substantial Completion Date until the Work is Substantially Complete. Should Contractor fail to Finally Complete the Work by the Required Final Completion Date, Contractor shall pay to Owner as liquidated damages, in addition to any liquidated damages that may be due under the foregoing sentence, the amounts set forth on Exhibit A to the Agreement for each day after the Required Final Completion Date until the Work is Finally Complete. 3.5.3 Contractor shall pay such liquidated damages (without offset or deduction for any amounts Contractor claims Owner then owes or otherwise) by certified or cashier’s check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account designated by Owner within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice from Owner for same, which Owner may issue from time to time until Substantial Completion and/or Final Completion, as applicable, has occurred. Any such amounts not paid on or before thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice shall accrue interest at the default rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum from the date due until and including the date paid. In the alternative, Owner shall have the right to offset any such amounts owed to Owner as liquidated damages in whole or in part against amounts due to Contractor under the Contract. 3.5.4 Owner’s right to liquidated damages pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be in lieu of any other damages Owner may be entitled to collect as a result of Contractor’s delay in achieving Substantial Completion of the Work on or before the Required Substantial Completion Date or in achieving Final Completion of the Work on or before the Required Final Completion Date, as applicable; provided that (i) such liquidated damages shall not be in lieu of or prevent Owner from exercising any other right or remedy for delay (other than collection of damages), such as, by way of example and not by way of limitation, remedies to terminate the Contract or to take over the Work, (ii) such liquidated damages are only for the failure of Contractor to achieve the required degree of completion of the Work by the applicable date and are not in lieu of any right or remedy that Owner has for any other breach, default, or failure to perform under the Contract (for example, and not by way of limitation, defective work or the filing or assertion of claims by Subcontractors or Sub-subcontractors), and (iii) in addition to liquidated damages, to the extent that the failure to achieve any scheduled stage of completion (other than Substantial Completion or Final Completion) designated in the Milestone Schedule as a significant milestone (for preparations or installations that Owner will do or for other activities of Owner) on or before the date therefor provided on the Milestone Schedule results in specific out-ofpocket costs or other specific damages to Owner (such as the cost of storing equipment ordered that the Building should have been sufficiently finished to house at that stage according to the Milestone Schedule), Contractor shall pay to Owner the amount thereof. Extraordinary Measures. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 15 Denver Public Schools 3.6.1 If the progress of the Work falls behind that required by the Milestone Schedule (as revised to reflect any Excused Delay) in any material way, if requested by Owner, Contractor shall work additional shifts or overtime, supply additional manpower or equipment, or take other similar measures, as specified by Owner, and shall continue such measures until the progress of the Work has reached the stage then required by the Milestone Schedule (as revised to reflect any Excused Delay). Contractor shall not be entitled to an increase in the Contract Sum on account of such measures. 3.6.2 Owner may further direct that Contractor take the measures described in Section 3.6.1 above to make up time lost to Excused Delay, in which event Owner’s directive shall be a Change Directive to the extent of the additional work necessary to recover the time lost to the Excused Delay, Contractor shall perform the requested work in accordance with Section 5.1, and the Contract Sum shall be adjusted as provided in Sections 5.1 and 5.4; provided, however, that only the incremental costs of such acceleration incurred in excess of those costs necessary to bring the progress of the Work into conformance with the Milestone Schedule (as adjusted for Excused Delay) shall be included in any increase to the Contract Sum. Alternatively, Owner may at its option submit a Proposed Change for such work in accordance with Section 5.2. 3.6.3 Contractor shall, within five (5) calendar days after Owner’s written request, provide Owner a recovery schedule setting forth in complete detail the acceleration of the Work in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.6. Article 4. PROJECT AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT 4.1 General Scope. Unless otherwise specifically provided in the Contract Documents, the scope of Contractor’s Work, includes all labor, materials, equipment, tools, construction equipment, machinery, water, heat, utilities, transportation, and other facilities and services necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work, whether temporary or permanent and whether or not to be incorporated into the Work. 4.2 Project Schedule. 4.2.1 Contractor shall, within five (5) business days after the execution of the Agreement, submit an interim CPM schedule to Owner’s Project Manager (the “Interim Schedule”). The Interim Schedule shall include as many activities as are reasonably necessary to sufficiently detail the work to be performed during the first ninety (90) working days and a summary schedule of the Work for the entire Project. Until the preparation of the Project Schedule in accordance with Section 4.2.2 below, the Interim Schedule shall be used to manage the scheduling and coordination of the Work. 4.2.2 Within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of the Agreement, Contractor shall submit to the Owner’s Project Manager a detailed CPM schedule for the entire Project (the “Project Schedule”) in Primavera P6 format, including all of the items required by Exhibit G to the Agreement. The Project Schedule shall be updated at least monthly and submitted with each Application for Payment. Contractor shall also maintain a ninety (90) day look-ahead schedule showing the activities to be performed within the immediately forthcoming ninety (90) days and shall provide a copy of such schedule to Owner upon request. 4.2.3 The Project Schedule shall be cost-loaded and conform to the Schedule of Values approved by Owner, and Contractor shall keep current the cost information included in the Project Schedule. If the Agreement is a CMGC Agreement, Contractor may defer General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 16 Denver Public Schools cost-loading the Project Schedule until the approval of the Second Cost Estimate but shall submit a fully cost-loaded Project Schedule within ten (10) days after such approval. 4.2.4 The Interim Schedule and Project Schedule shall conform to the Milestone Schedule. In the event of conflict between the Milestone Schedule and the Project Schedule, the Milestone Schedule shall prevail unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing by Owner. No proposed changes in the Project Schedule that would extend the Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date shall be binding on Owner by reason of having been included in the Project Schedule. 4.2.5 Contractor shall record the daily progress of the Project in a daily log available to the Owner and the Architect. Contractor shall submit a weekly written progress report and summaries of project-related meetings to the Owner and the Architect, including information on the subcontractors' work, labor resource levels by trade, safety violations, inspections or tests, and the percentage of completion of items relative to the approved Project Schedule. 4.3 Supervision and Construction Procedure. Contractor shall perform, supervise, direct, and coordinate the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, and shall be solely responsible for all construction means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures. Contractor shall use its best skill and attention in the prosecution of the Work. Contractor shall take reasonable measures to verify that significant Subcontractors and Suppliers have, where appropriate because of the possible unavailability of labor or materials, made reasonable arrangements for alternate sources of labor and materials so that the Project is not delayed by shortages of labor and materials which might reasonably be anticipated. Contractor shall be responsible to Owner for acts and omissions of Contractor’s employees, Subcontractors and Sub-subcontractors and their agents and employees, and other persons performing portions of the Work under a contract with Contractor. Contractor shall be responsible to ensure that the Work is properly sequenced and that each stage of the Work is in proper condition to receive subsequent Work. 4.4 Books and Records. Contractor shall keep and maintain all books and records with respect to the Work including, without limitation, maintaining an accurate record of the Cost of Work. A copy of all such books and records shall be kept at the Site or at Contractor’s office in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area and shall be open to inspection by Owner and Architect at all reasonable times. 4.5 Site Investigation; Field Verification. 4.5.1 Contractor shall obtain information regarding existing facilities and building systems sufficient to support Contractor’s Work. Such investigation shall include visual examination of actual conditions at the Site and conducting conferences with Owner’s personnel familiar with the existing facilities. Contractor shall confer with Architect and Owner as may be necessary for Contractor to obtain a complete understanding of the Project and Owner’s requirements for the Project insofar as they relate to the Contractor’s Work. 4.5.2 Before ordering any material or doing any Construction Work, Contractor shall verify all measurements shown in the Construction Documents at the Site of the work and shall be responsible for the correctness of the same. Any differences between conditions on the Site and the Contract Documents that Contractor may observe shall be promptly reported in writing to the Architect before proceeding with any affected materials ordering or Work. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 17 Denver Public Schools 4.6 4.7 Use of Site. 4.6.1 Contractor shall confine operations at the Site to areas permitted by Current Laws, ordinances, permits, and the Contract Documents and shall not unreasonably encumber the Site with any materials or equipment. Contractor shall maintain the Site in a safe condition. Contractor shall not load any structure or earth, or permit any part thereof to be loaded, with a weight that will endanger safety or stability. 4.6.2 If any portions of an existing building are to be remodeled or repaired, such portions shall be adequately partitioned off with dust-proof partitions. Contractor’s Project Schedule and management of the Site and Work shall be planned and executed to permit the completion of the Work in an orderly fashion during the school vacation periods, if any, during which it is scheduled to occur, or in such manner as to permit full use of the Site by Owner without impairment of any existing facilities. 4.6.3 Owner shall have the right to take possession of and to use any completed or partially completed portions of the Work, even if the time for completing the entire Work or such portions of the Work has not expired and even if the Work has not been finally accepted. Such possession and use shall not constitute an acceptance of such portions of the Work. Architect and Contractor shall conduct an inspection of such portions of the Work before Owner occupancy thereof. A report of items incomplete, damaged or otherwise unacceptable will be prepared by the Architect and delivered to the Contractor and Owner. This report shall be used as a record of the condition of such Work at the time of Owner’s occupancy thereof and shall not be construed to constitute acceptance of such Work by Owner. Any material delays resulting from such occupancy of the Work by Owner shall constitute Owner Delay (but only to the extent that such occupancy causes actual delays in the Work that satisfy all the requirements necessary to be an Owner Delay under Section 3.4.1) unless such occupancy is rendered necessary by Contractor’s failure to complete the Work in accordance with the Milestone Schedule and Project Schedule, as adjusted for Excused Delay. 4.6.4 If the Site is occupied by Owner, Contractor’s access to the Site for Construction Work shall be limited during the school year to times outside normal school business hours and such other days and times as Owner may specifically authorize in writing. Contractor’s access to an occupied Site outside the school year shall be limited to normal business hours and such other days and times as Owner may specifically authorize in writing. Contractor shall have access to an occupied Site during school district holidays only with Owner’s specific written authorization. Cleaning Up. Contractor, at all times, shall keep the Work in neat and clean condition and free from waste materials or rubbish caused by its operations. At least weekly, or more often as necessary to comply with the requirements of the previous sentence and maintain a safe and efficient site, Contractor shall clean up the Site and remove all waste and materials that have not previously been removed, remove all equipment not then being used on a regular basis, remove any excess materials, and take all other actions reasonably necessary to maintain the Site in a good, clean, and orderly condition. At the completion of the Work, Contractor shall remove all its waste materials and rubbish from and about the Project as well as all of its tools, construction equipment, machinery, and surplus materials and shall clean all glass surfaces and leave the Site “broom clean” or its equivalent, except as otherwise specified. If Contractor fails to clean up as required hereby, Owner may do so and one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the reasonable cost thereof shall be paid by Contractor or deducted from any amount thereafter becoming payable to Contractor. No such charge by Owner shall be included within the Cost of Work. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 18 Denver Public Schools 4.8 Coordination with Owner’s Consultants. Owner may engage consultants to inspect portions of the Work. Contractor shall cooperate with such inspections, review the inspection and laboratory reports prepared by Owner’s separate consultants and advise and assist Owner in resolving any concerns raised by those reports.

These drawings, specifications, and similar items shall be made available to Owner and Architect at the Site. 4.10 Manufacturers’ and Subcontractors’ Warranties; Manuals. Upon Substantial Completion, Contractor shall compile and deliver to Architect operation and maintenance manuals for each building included in the Project, including a copy of each warranty extending beyond the Warranty Period and a copy of each instruction manual provided to Contractor by manufacturers of equipment, machinery, and similar items, a summary of any warranty time limitations contained in third-party manufacturers’ warranties, and instructions to Owner’s representatives in the operation of mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and other systems constituting part of the Work. Contractor shall provide two (2) copies of each such manual for each building. Contractor shall arrange for manufacturers’ representatives to assist in equipment and system start-up. 4.11 Unsuitable Conditions. The Contractor shall not perform any Work at any time, or permit any Work to be done, under any conditions unsuited to its proper execution, safety, and reliability. Any costs resulting from ill-timed work by Contractor shall be borne by Contractor, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided herein. 4.12 Owner’s Separate Work. 4.12.1 Contractor acknowledges that Owner may enter into separate contracts for work to take place on the Site at the same time as the Construction Work. Contractor shall coordinate its efforts with the other activities of Owner on the Site, and Owner shall require its other contractors to coordinate their activities with Contractor, to enable the work under each contract to proceed without undue interference and to allow each contractor to perform its work that relates to the work of other contractors in a timely manner. 4.12.2 In the event of any alleged damage caused by Contractor to another contractor’s work or vice versa, Contractor shall negotiate in good faith with the other contractor to settle the claim. Contractor shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Owner from and against General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 19 Denver Public Schools any Claims of damage to another contractor’s work to the extent of the negligence or fault attributable to the acts or omissions of Contractor, a Subcontractor, a Sub-subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed or engaged by them or anyone for whose acts they may be liable. 4.12.3 If any part of the Contractor’s Work depends upon the work of any other contractor, the Contractor shall inspect and promptly (and in any event within two (2) days after discovery) report to the Architect any defects in the other contractor’s work that render it unsuitable for proper execution of the Work. Contractor’s failure so to inspect and report shall constitute an acceptance of the other contractor's work as fit and proper for the reception of the Contractor’s Work, except as to latent defects that may become apparent in the other contractor's work only after the execution of the Contractor’s Work. The Contractor shall measure work already in place and shall immediately report to the Architect any discrepancy between the executed work and the Contract Documents. 4.13 Quality Control. Contractor shall establish and maintain a quality control program specific to the Project. Such program shall include a Project-specific quality control plan, regularly scheduled meetings to discuss quality control issues and objectives, the submittal review and approval processes required by the Contract Documents, appropriate testing and inspections, and documentation and tracking systems appropriate to the Project. A proposed written program shall be submitted to the Owner for review and approval before the commencement of the Construction Work. 4.14 Issue Tracking. Contractor shall implement an effective system for recording and tracking requests for clarification and instructions, submittals, approvals, information and other responses from the Architect, Agreed Changes, Change Directives, Change Requests and other communications that define or raise questions about the Work. At each weekly progress meeting, Contractor shall identify and raise for discussion any open issues that may impact the schedule or cost of the Project. 4.15 Self-Work. The Cost of Work shall, so long as the same conforms to all the requirements and restrictions set forth herein, include the labor costs incurred by Contractor in performing SelfWork. No labor costs for Self-Work shall be permitted to the extent that (i) the same exceed the lowest reasonable cost thereof which would be provided by capable and qualified Subcontractors and/or (ii) such Self-Work fails to meet standards of quality available from capable and qualified Subcontractors. 4.16 Project Manager and Superintendents. The person, if any, designated as the Contractor’s Project Manager and other persons designated as key members of the Project Team on Exhibit A to the Agreement shall be assigned exclusively to the Project until the Project (including the Punch List) has been completed, except to the extent that assignment of such persons to other projects is approved in writing by Owner. Contractor’s Project Manager shall have authority to act on behalf of and bind the Contractor, and directions given to Contractor’s Project Manager shall be as binding as if given to the Contractor. Contractor shall keep Contractor’s Project Manager and necessary assistants, all of whom shall be satisfactory to Owner, on the Site at all times work is being performed. The key members of the Project Team shall not be changed without Owner’s prior written consent, except in the event of termination of such persons’ employment by Contractor. 4.17 Federally Funded Projects. If Exhibit A to the Agreement indicates that any funds from United States government sources are to be used to pay for the Project, Contractor shall be responsible to comply with all Current Laws applicable thereto, including the Davis Bacon and Related Acts, regulations promulgated thereunder, and all other laws applicable to federally-assisted construction projects, including without limitation Title 29, Subtitle A, Part 5 of the Code of Federal General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 20 Denver Public Schools Regulations. Certain provisions required by 29 C.F.R. § 5.5 are attached to the Agreement as Exhibit J. 4.18 Extra Inspections. If Contractor notifies Owner that Substantial Completion, Final Completion, or other milestones in the Milestone Schedule have been achieved but the Architect determines that the required degree of completion has not been achieved, Contractor shall be responsible to reimburse out of its own funds any fees or charges payable by Owner for later re-inspection of the Work. Article 5. 5.1 5.2 CHANGES IN THE WORK Change Directive. 5.1.1 Owner may, without invalidating the Contract, direct a change in the Work and may state a proposed basis for adjustment, if any, in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date, or Required Final Completion Date, or any combination of them, by a “Change Directive.” Upon receipt of the Change Directive, Contractor shall promptly proceed with the change in the Work involved and advise Owner of its disagreement, if any, with the proposed adjustment of the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date, if any. 5.1.2 A Change Directive signed by Contractor indicates the agreement of Contractor therewith, including adjustment of the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date, if such is proposed by Owner. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be an “Agreed Change,” which term, as used herein, shall mean any change in the Work as to which Contractor and Owner have agreed as any changes in the Contract Sum, the Required Substantial Completion Date and the Required Final Completion Date. If no such agreement is reached, Contractor shall give notice to Architect and Owner of its objection to the change, if any, in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date and/or Required Final Completion Date proposed in the Change Directive within five (5) business days after receipt of the Change Directive. If Contractor fails to give such notice within such time, Contractor shall be deemed to have agreed to the proposal contained in the Change Directive, and the Change Directive shall become an Agreed Change. 5.1.3 If Contractor timely objects to any adjustment of the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date as a result of a Change Directive, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, the disagreement shall be a Dispute and may be submitted to Dispute Resolution. Proposed Changes. 5.2.1 Owner may, without issuing a Change Directive, issue a request for the effect of a proposed change by a “Proposed Change.” Any Proposed Change shall be in the form of a Change Directive, except that, instead of setting forth Owner’s proposal for the change, if any, in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date, the same shall request a proposal from Contractor therefor. 5.2.2 Contractor shall, as quickly as is reasonably possible after Contractor’s receipt of the Proposed Change, respond in writing to each Proposed Change with a statement containing Contractor’s proposal for changes in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date on account of the change in the Work proposed in the Proposed Change. Such statement shall set forth specifically the General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 21 Denver Public Schools deadline by which Owner needs to approve such proposal for Contractor to proceed with the Proposed Change without delaying the Work. 5.2.3 Following Contractor’s delivery of its proposal based on a Proposed Change, Owner may: 5.2.3.1 decide not to make the change requested by the Proposed Change, in which case no notice shall be required to be given to Contractor (and if Owner fails to respond on or before the deadline specified in Contractor’s proposal, Owner shall be deemed not to have accepted Contractor’s proposal), 5.2.3.2 agree in writing to Contractor’s proposal by notice given to Contractor on or before the deadline set forth in Contractor’s proposal, in which case, the Proposed Change, with any changes in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date determined in accordance with Contractor’s proposal, shall become an Agreed Change, or 5.2.3.3 issue a Change Directive with respect to any part or all of the changes, in which case the Change Directive shall be processed in the same manner as any other Change Directive without consideration being given to Contractor’s proposal for determining the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date. 5.3 Changes not Requiring a Change Order. The Architect may order minor changes in the work, not involving an adjustment in the Contract Sum or an extension of the Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents, by notice to Owner and Contractor specifying the change proposed and making reference to this Section 5.3. No such proposed change shall adversely affect the quality or the value of the Work described in the Contract Documents, or provide for a substitution of materials of an inferior quality to those specified in the Construction Documents. Owner may object to such proposed change by notice given to Architect and Contractor on or before the end of the fifth (5th) business day after Architect’s notice is received by Owner, in which case the change shall be rejected and not implemented by Contractor. If Owner approves the change or fails to object thereto within such time, such change shall become an Agreed Change. 5.4 Determination of the Cost or Savings Attributable to a Change Directive. Changes in the Contract Sum resulting from a Change Directive shall be determined by agreement of Contractor and Owner, acting reasonably, based on any or all of the following: 5.5 5.4.1 reasonable estimates, 5.4.2 unit prices, or 5.4.3 other reasonable method for determining reasonable expenditures and savings. Change Pricing. All pricing information provided by Contractor in connection with a Change Directive or Proposed Change shall include itemized amounts for at least the following categories of costs (as applicable): 5.5.1 material quantities and unit prices by division; 5.5.2 labor costs based on stated estimated hours and hourly rates for each classification of labor; General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 22 Denver Public Schools 5.5.3 field supervision costs; 5.5.4 costs of construction equipment; 5.5.5 insurance and bond premiums; 5.5.6 Social Security tax and other payroll and unemployment taxes; and 5.5.7 overhead and profit (based on the same percentage of Direct Hard Costs used to compute the Construction Fee, or, if the Construction Fee is an agreed lump sum, based on the same ratio that the originally agreed Construction Fee bears to the originally scheduled Direct Hard Costs). When both additions and credits are involved in any one change, the change in the Contractor Fee (if the same is a percentage of the Direct Hard Costs) shall be figured on the basis of the net increase or decrease, if any. In no event shall the combined amount of overhead and profit for Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, and Contractor with respect to any additive change exceed fifteen percent (15%) of costs of labor and materials associated with the change that are payable under the Contract. 5.6 Change Orders. Each month, as part of the Application for Payment, Contractor shall prepare a “Change Order,” which shall be a summary of all Agreed Changes approved for such month, a summary of the Agreed Changes, if any, in the Contract Sum and Required Substantial Completion Date as a result of such changes. If, at the end of the month, any Change Directives have been issued as to which the changes, if any, in the Contract Sum and Required Substantial Completion Date have not been agreed to, the Application for Payment shall also include a list of all of such Change Directives. 5.7 Tracking. The Architect shall assign tracking numbers to Proposed Changes, Change Directives and Agreed Changes, and the Contractor shall assign tracking numbers to Change Orders, which the parties shall use in all correspondence related thereto for ease of reference. Article 6. 6.1 SUBCONTRACTORS, SUPPLIERS AND PERSONNEL. Terms of Subcontracts. 6.1.1 Those portions of the Work that are not Self-Work as permitted hereby shall be performed under subcontracts or by other appropriate agreements with Contractor. By appropriate written agreement, Contractor shall require each Subcontractor, to the extent of the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor, to be bound to Contractor by terms of the Contract Documents and to assume toward Contractor all the obligations and responsibilities which Contractor, by the Contract Documents, assumes toward Owner. Each subcontract agreement shall satisfy all requirements therefor contained in the Contract Documents, shall preserve and protect the rights of Owner under the Contract with respect to the Work to be performed by the Subcontractor so that subcontracting thereof will not prejudice such rights, and shall allow to the Subcontractor, unless specifically provided otherwise in the subcontract agreement, the benefit of all rights, remedies and redress against Contractor that Contractor, by the Contract Documents, has against Owner. 6.1.2 Each subcontract agreement shall contain a clause that allows Contractor to terminate a subcontract if the Subcontractor is added to the GSA Excluded Parties List Report during performance of the Work. Where appropriate (for example, for significant Subcontractors), Contractor shall require each Subcontractor to enter into similar General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 23 Denver Public Schools agreements with Sub-subcontractors. Contractor shall make available to each proposed Subcontractor, prior to the execution of the subcontract agreement, copies of the Contract Documents to which the Subcontractor will be bound. Subcontractors shall similarly make copies of applicable portions of such documents available to their respective proposed Sub-subcontractors. 6.1.3 Each contract entered into by Contractor with any Subcontractor shall require that each such Subcontractor include, in its respective contracts with any Sub-subcontractor, for the benefit of Owner, payment documentation requirements substantially similar to those set forth in the Contract Documents (including those providing for retainage, procedures for submitting applications for payment, and payment procedures), as well as any other provisions expressly stated in the Contract Documents to be included in each such Subcontractor’s contracts with their respective Sub-subcontractors. Contractor shall require Subcontractors to submit applications for payment to the Contractor in time for the Contractor to submit its Application for Payment on the basis of such Subcontractors’ Work within the time required by the Contract Documents. 6.1.4 Each subcontract agreement for a portion of the Work and each contract for supplying materials is assigned by Contractor to Owner; provided that the assignment is effective only after termination of the Contract by Owner for cause and only for those agreements which Owner accepts by notifying the Subcontractor or Supplier in writing at or after the time of such termination. Each subcontract agreement with a Subcontractor or each contractor with a supplier shall permit the subcontract agreement to be assigned to Owner and shall obligate the Subcontractor to recognize any such assignment which becomes effective and to render its performances thereunder to Owner after the effectiveness of any such assignment and shall provide that Owner shall be responsible to the Subcontractor only for those obligations of Contractor that accrue subsequent to Owner’s exercise of any rights under this conditional assignment. Except as provided in this paragraph, nothing in the Contract Documents shall be deemed to create any contractual relationship whatsoever between any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor and the Owner. 6.2 Equal Opportunity. Owner intends and expects that its contracting processes and the contracting processes of its professional designers and consultants, contractors, and vendors, including professional designers and consultants, shall provide equal opportunity without regard to gender, race, ethnicity, religion, age, or disability, and that its vendors shall make available equal opportunities to the extent third parties are engaged to provide goods and services to Owner as contractors, subcontractors, consultants, vendors, or otherwise. Accordingly, Contractor shall not discriminate on any of the foregoing grounds in the performance of the contract, and shall make available equal opportunities to the extent third parties are engaged to provide services in connection with performance of the contract.

In claims against any person or entity indemnified under this Article 13 by an employee of Contractor, a Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor, Supplier, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them, or anyone for whose acts they may be liable, the indemnification obligation under this Article 13 shall not be limited by a limitation on amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for Contractor or a Subcontractor, Sub-subcontractor, or Supplier under worker’s or workmen’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts. 13.3 Employee Benefits. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor shall indemnify, defend (with counsel acceptable to Owner) and hold harmless the Owner Parties from any Claims with respect to any Employee Benefits for the benefit of Contractor and/or any of its employees, Subconsultants, agents, or anyone else acting on behalf of or at the request of the Contractor, that may be asserted against or imposed on the Owner Parties (except to the extent such Claims arise from a separate direct relationship between the claimant and an Owner Party unrelated to the Services or the Contract). Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for any award, judgment or fine against the Owner based on any claim that has as an element the proposition that Contractor or any of its employees, Subconsultants, agents, or anyone else acting on behalf of or at the request of the Contractor became entitled to Employee Benefits by virtue of activities undertaken in connection with the provision of Services under the Contract. Article 14. 14.1 DEFAULTS, REMEDIES AND TERMINATION Default by Contractor. Time is of the essence of Contractor’s obligations under the Contract.

General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 35 Denver Public Schools 14.1.6 Contractor fails to make payment to Subcontractors, Suppliers, or others in accordance with Contractor’s agreements with such parties or the provisions of the Contract Documents, whichever is more stringent. 14.1.7 Contractor fails to comply with any Current Laws. 14.1.8 Contractor fails to comply with any other material or substantial provision of the Contract Documents. If a default continues uncured for seventy-two hours (or as otherwise agreed to by Owner in writing) after Owner gives notice of such default to Contractor, such failure to cure shall be deemed an “Event of Default” entitling Owner to exercise its remedies provided in Section 14.2 below. In addition, if Contractor becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or becomes the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding (unless the same is an involuntary proceeding against Contractor and is dismissed within forty-five (45) days after it has been commenced), the same shall also be an Event of Default. 14.2 Owner’s Remedies. 14.2.1 Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Owner may, in addition to any other remedy which may be provided in the Contract Documents or which is otherwise available at law or in equity, terminate the engagement of Contractor made under the Contract and may (i) take possession of the Site and of all materials, equipment, tools, and construction equipment and machinery thereon owned by Contractor; (ii) accept assignment of such subcontracts and contracts with Supplier as Owner may from time to time elect; and (iii) finish the Work by whatever reasonable method Owner may deem expedient. Any such act by Owner shall not be deemed a waiver of any right or remedy of Owner, and Owner shall have all rights and remedies available at law or in equity. 14.2.2 If after exercising any such remedy, the reasonable cost to Owner of the performance of the balance of the Work is in excess of that part of the Contract Sum that has not theretofore been paid to Contractor hereunder, Contractor shall be liable for and shall reimburse Owner for such excess within thirty (30) days of its receipt from Owner of an invoice detailing such excess cost. 14.2.3 If Owner terminates the Contract as permitted by this Section 14.2, Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment hereunder; provided that, if Owner is able to have the Project finished for less than the Contract Sum, Owner shall pay to Contractor the amount, if any, necessary to pay Subcontractors of Contractor for the Work they performed in a satisfactory manner prior to such termination, but only to the extent that such payment will not cause Owner to have expended, for all costs of the Project, an amount in excess of the Contract Sum. 14.2.4 The remedies provided to Owner pursuant to this Article shall be in addition to all other remedies of any kind and nature which Owner may have, either at law or in equity, for any breach hereof or failure to perform by Contractor, including the liquidated damages provided herein. All remedies of Owner shall be cumulative, and the exercise of one or more remedies by Owner hereunder shall not preclude the simultaneous exercise or subsequent exercise of other or additional remedies. 14.3 Default by Owner. Time is of the essence in Owner’s performance of its obligations to Contractor hereunder. Owner shall be in default of its obligations under the Contract upon the occurrence of any of the following: General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 36 Denver Public Schools 14.3.1 Failure to pay Contractor any Progress Payment when it is due (not including any payment or portion thereof to which Owner has timely made objection in the manner provided in the Contract Documents). 14.3.2 Failure to perform any other material obligation under the Contract Documents in the time permitted thereby. Owner’s failure to cure any such default within thirty (30) days after receiving written notice thereof from Contractor with respect to a non-monetary default (or so long thereafter as Owner is using commercially reasonable efforts to cure such default) or within fifteen (15) business days after receiving notice from Contractor of failure to make a Progress Payment (not including any payment or portion thereof to which Owner has timely made objection in the manner provided in the General Conditions of the Contract) shall be an Event of Default by Owner. 14.4 Contractor’s Remedies. In the event that an Event of Default by Owner occurs and is then continuing, (i) Contractor may cease all or any portion of the Work, and Owner shall be responsible for all increased costs arising out of such delay, which delay shall be an Owner Delay, but only to the extent that the Work is actually delayed as is necessary to be an Owner Delay under Section 13.2 of the General Conditions of the Contract or (ii) in the alternative, Contractor may terminate the Contract, remove any materials, equipment, and tools from the Site, and recover from Owner payment for all Work executed and any loss or damage sustained by Contractor by reason of the termination; provided that in no event shall Contractor be entitled to recover from Owner more than the remainder obtained when the (a) sum of (i) the costs of completing the Work Contractor avoids by the termination plus (ii) the amounts already paid by Owner to Contractor hereunder are subtracted from (b) the Contract Sum. 14.5 Attorneys’ Fees. In the event any dispute related to the Contract is made the subject of litigation, the party prevailing on the more substantial part of its claims and defenses in such litigation shall be entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees and costs reasonably incurred in connection with such litigation. 14.6 Suspension by Owner for Convenience. Owner may, without cause, order Contractor in writing to suspend, delay, or interrupt the Work in whole or in part for such period of time as Owner may determine. An equitable adjustment by Agreed Change shall be made for increases in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date and Required Final Completion Date on account of any such suspension, delay or interruption. If the suspension of the Work by Owner for convenience exceeds ninety (90) days, Contractor may terminate the Contract, and Owner shall pay Contractor in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.7. During any period of suspension, Contractor shall store all materials to prevent them from becoming damaged in any way or becoming an obstruction, and shall take all appropriate precautions to prevent damage to or deterioration of the Work, provide suitable drainage and erect temporary structures where necessary, provided that Contractor shall first notify the Owner and Architect of the measures the Contractor proposes to take and the anticipated costs thereof. 14.7 Termination by Owner Without Cause. For purposes hereof, “Commencement of Construction” shall be deemed to have occurred on the earliest of (i) date on which Contractor, with the consent of Owner, moves the first equipment onto the Site, (ii) the date on which Contractor, with the consent of Owner, makes an order for materials that cannot be canceled without payment of a cancellation fee, loss or deposit, or similar cost, or (iii) otherwise, with the consent of Owner, takes action to commence construction that cannot be terminated without cost. 14.7.1 Prior to Commencement of Construction. If the Agreement is a CMGC Agreement, Owner may at any time prior to Commencement of Construction, at will and without cause, terminate the Contract by notice to Contractor. In the event of such termination, General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 37 Denver Public Schools Contractor shall immediately stop the Pre-Construction Work, and, to the extent Owner has not already paid such amounts to Contractor, Owner shall pay Contractor the portion of the Pre-Construction Fee applicable to Pre-Construction Work already performed, including an equitable portion of the installment of the Pre-Construction Fee applicable to the then-current Design Phase based on the proportion of the Pre-Construction Work for that Design Phase (including consultations) that has been completed. 14.7.2 After Commencement of Construction. 14.7.2.1 Owner may, at any time on or after Commencement of Construction, at will and without cause, terminate all or any part of the Work and any subcontract or any contract with a Supplier pertaining to the same by giving written notice to Contractor specifying the part of the Work or subcontract or any contract with a supplier to be terminated and the effective date of the termination. In case of a termination of a portion of the Work, Owner will execute an Agreed Change making any required adjustment to the Required Substantial Completion Date, Required Final Completion Date and/or the Contract Sum necessitated by such termination. Contractor shall submit its claim for the amounts of such adjustments in writing within ten (10) days after the first to occur of the resumption of the Work or the termination of the Contract. For the remainder of the Work, if any, the Contract Documents shall remain in full force and effect. Contractor shall continue to prosecute the Work not terminated, if any. 14.7.2.2 If any part or all of the Work is so terminated or if Contractor terminates the Contract pursuant to Section 14.6, Contractor shall be entitled to payment for: (i) Work properly executed in accordance with the Contract Documents; (ii) the full amount of Soft Costs incurred through the date of termination; (iii) the portion of the Contractor Fee applicable to the portion of the Work completed; (iv) costs directly related to the termination of the Contract or to Work thereafter performed by Contractor in terminating such Work, including costs of demobilization; and (v) materials specially fabricated for the Work prior to the time when the Contractor gives or received notice of such termination and not incorporated in the Work prior to termination. 14.7.2.3 If any materials specially fabricated for the Work are not fully prepared when the Contractor gives or receives notice of termination of the Agreement, Contractor shall, immediately upon giving or receiving such notice, (i) notify the applicable Suppliers to stop work and wait for further instructions, and (ii) notify Owner and Architect that such materials are partially fabricated and that the suppliers thereof are awaiting further instructions. The Owner shall, within ten (10) days from the date it receives Contractor’s notice, notify Contractor whether to have the work on such materials or other items completed. Contractor shall cancel all orders for materials or other items which the Owner does not wish to have completed. Contractor shall make a settlement with each such material supplier reasonably satisfactory to Owner, the costs of which shall be reimbursed by the Owner. 14.7.2.4 Owner shall be entitled to purchase from the Contractor any of the materials and other items obtained by the Contractor for the Work, but not incorporated in the work prior to termination, for the cost thereof to the Contractor. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 38 Denver Public Schools Article 15. 15.1 CONCEALED CONDITIONS Concealed Conditions. 15.1.1 In the event Contractor encounters subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions that differ materially from those conditions reasonably inferable from observations of the exposed surfaces of the Site and reports, surveys, assessments, record drawings and other information furnished by Owner or obtained by Contractor, Contractor shall provide Architect and Owner notice thereof within two (2) business days after first discovering the same and shall suspend those portions of the Work that conflict with such conditions until receipt of further directions from Owner. 15.1.2 Contractor and Owner shall inspect and evaluate such conditions, and Owner shall cause the Architect, if necessary, to prepare appropriate supplemental drawings or instructions to address or accommodate the conditions discovered. 15.1.3 Delay resulting from the suspension of Work pending the investigation of unforeseen concealed conditions shall be an Owner Delay, but only to the extent that the same causes actual delay in the critical path to complete the Work that satisfies all the requirements necessary to be an Owner Delay under Section 3.4.1 and all the requirements of Section 15.1.5 below. 15.1.4 If the actions necessary to address such conditions of the Site increase the Cost of Work or adversely impact the critical path to completion of the Work, Contractor may request that an Agreed Change or Change Directive be issued for changes in the Work reflected in the supplemental drawings or instructions prepared to address such conditions, subject to the provisions of Section 15.1.5 below. 15.1.5 Costs. 15.1.5.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein, Contractor shall not be entitled to any increase in the Contract Sum or extension of the Milestone Schedule, nor shall any Owner Delay be deemed to have occurred, on account of any condition of the Site that was indicated in or reasonably inferable from (i) observations of the exposed surfaces of the Site and reports, surveys, assessments, record drawings and other information furnished by Owner or obtained by Contractor, (ii) a thorough inspection of the Site prior to the commencement of the Work (regardless of whether such thorough inspection was actually conducted), or (iii) other information and documents furnished to Contractor by Owner or others. 15.1.5.2 If the Agreement is a GMGC Agreement, increases in the Cost of Work (and any associated Construction Fee and General Conditions fee, if applicable) in connection with any Agreed Change or Change Directive under Section 15.1.4 shall be charged to the Contingency, and an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be allowed, if at all, only to the extent that such costs exceed the balance of the Contingency. 15.1.6 Any dispute as to whether Contractor is entitled to receive an increase in the Contract Sum or extension of the Milestone Schedule on account of concealed conditions of the Site shall be a Dispute and shall, at the request of either Contractor or Owner, be submitted to Dispute Resolution. General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 39 Denver Public Schools Article 16. HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES 16.1 Hazardous Substances. “Hazardous Substances” include any substance identified as a hazardous substance pursuant to any federal, state or local law or regulation regulating substances by reason of threats posed to public health and safety, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act of 1986, the Hazardous Substances Transportation Act, the Solid Waste Disposal Act, the Clean Water Act, the Clean Air Act, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, and the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, all as amended. 16.2 Existing Facilities – Hazardous Substances May Exist. Contractor acknowledges that most existing structures owned or operated by Owner contain asbestos-containing materials, and the Site may also contain other Hazardous Substances. Contractor and any Subcontractors, Subsubcontractors or other personnel who may come into contact with asbestos-containing materials shall review and become familiar with Owner’s plan under the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, currently titled the “Denver Public Schools General Asbestos Management Plan” and the AHERA Asbestos Management Plan and Hazardous Materials Information book for each existing facility comprising part of the Project, as each may be revised from time to time. All persons acting for Contractor under the Contract shall be responsible to perform the responsibilities of “Vendors” as defined in those Plans. 16.3 No Introduction of Hazardous Substances. Contractor, its contractors, its Subcontractors, its Sub-subcontractors, its Suppliers, and their respective agents, representatives and employees shall not introduce or cause the introduction of Hazardous Substances to the Project. Except as provided below as to Ordinary Course Materials, in the event that Contractor, its contractors, its Subcontractors, its Suppliers, or their respective agents, representatives and employees introduce or cause the introduction of Hazardous Substances to the Project, Contractor shall pay for removal of all such substances and shall indemnify Owner and its successors as owners of the Property for all liability resulting from the introduction of such Hazardous Substances to the Project. 16.4 Suspected Hazardous Substances. Contractor acknowledges that other Hazardous Substances may exist in building materials, soils, or equipment used on the Site. Contractor shall not be primarily responsible to identify Hazardous Substances existing on the Site; provided that Contractor shall be responsible to comply with all recommendations and requirements of environmental consultants furnished to Contractor in writing. Except as provided above and except for Ordinary Course Materials, if Contractor encounters what Contractor reasonably believes may be Hazardous Substances, Contractor shall immediately stop Work in the area affected and immediately report the condition to Architect and Owner in writing.

The Work in the affected area shall be resumed in the absence of Hazardous Substances, when any Hazardous Substances have been rendered harmless, or when the conditions in the preceding sentence have been satisfied. Unless such materials were introduced to the Project by Contractor or its contractors, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, Suppliers, or their respective agents, representatives and employees, Owner shall be responsible for all reasonable costs related to any testing, removal, encapsulation, or remediation of any such substances or materials, and any additional cost of the Work arising out of any delay in the Work caused thereby. Except as to such materials introduced to the Project by Contractor or its contractors, Subcontractors, Subsubcontractors, Suppliers, or their respective agents, representatives and employees, any delays General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 40 Denver Public Schools arising out of such testing, removal, encapsulation, or remediation shall be an Owner Delay, but only to the extent that the same causes actual delay in the Work that satisfies all the requirements necessary to be an Owner Delay under Section 3.4.1; provided, however, that if the Agreement is a GMGC Agreement, any increases in the Cost of Work (and any associated Construction Fee and General Conditions fee, if applicable) in connection with any such Owner Delay shall be charged to the Contingency, and an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be allowed, if at all, only to the extent that such amounts exceed the balance of the Contingency. 16.5 Ordinary Course Materials. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to preclude Contractor from using and bringing onto the Property materials and substances (which are otherwise Hazardous Substances) used in the ordinary course of commercial construction in quantities typically and safely used for such purposes (“Ordinary Course Materials”). Contractor shall use all Ordinary Course Materials in accordance with all Current Laws and shall make sure that none of the Ordinary Course Materials are released or otherwise permitted to contaminate the Property or render the Property contaminated. Contractor shall defend and indemnify Owner against any claim, cost, loss, or damage resulting from the use of the Ordinary Course Materials in connection with the Project or resulting from the introduction of Hazardous Substances onto the Property in a manner not specifically permitted hereby. In the event Contractor recognizes any improper handling or storage of Hazardous Substances on the Site, including Ordinary Course Materials, or observes circumstances which contractor actually knows may result in the release or discharge of Hazardous Substances, whether or not by someone for whose acts Contractor is responsible, Contractor shall immediately notify Owner thereof. Article 17. 17.1 ROYALTIES AND PATENTS General Requirements. Contractor shall pay all royalties and license fees, and such costs shall be part of the Cost of Work. Contractor shall, at its own cost and not as part of the Cost of Work, defend all suits or claims for infringement of any patent rights relating to equipment or materials incorporated in the Work and shall indemnify and save Owner harmless from loss on account thereof, except that Owner shall be responsible for all such loss when a particular design process or the product of a particular manufacturer or manufacturers is specified by Owner; provided that, if Contractor has been notified or otherwise has reason to know that the use of a required design, process, or product is an infringement of a patent, Contractor shall be responsible for such loss, at its own cost and not as part of the Cost of Work, unless such information is promptly furnished to Architect and Owner.

Any models shall be the property of the Owner. Article 19. ROLE OF THE ARCHITECT 19.1 Limited Agent. Architect is the agent of the Owner only to the extent provided in the Contract Documents and Architect’s agreement with Owner. When in special instances the Architect is authorized to act on Owner’s behalf, the Architect shall, upon request, provide the Contractor copies of the documents that establish such authority. 19.2 Primary Interpreter of Construction Documents. 19.2.1 The Architect shall be the primary interpreter of the meaning and intent of the Construction Documents and shall be, in the first instance, the judge of the performance of the Contract. Architect will visit the site at appropriate intervals to become familiar with its progress and quality and to determine in general if the Work is being performed in such a manner that it will, when fully completed, be in accordance with the Contract Documents. 19.2.2 Architect shall, in a timely manner, evaluate and issue written determinations resolving any claims or disputes submitted to the Architect for review under the Contract. Interpretations and decisions of the Architect will be consistent with the intent of, and reasonably inferable from, the Contract Documents. The Architect’s decisions on matters relating to aesthetic effect shall be final if consistent with the intent expressed in the Contract Documents. In exercising its authority to make such determinations, Architect shall exercise independent professional judgment based on the Contract Documents and shall not favor Contractor or Owner. All such determinations shall be subject to judicial review, provided, however, that any matters designated as Disputes under the Contract shall be submitted to Dispute Resolution in accordance with the Agreement before being made the subject of litigation unless the Agreement specifically provides otherwise. 19.3 Communications. Contractor shall furnish both Owner and Architect copies of all notices Contractor gives to either Architect or Owner under the Contract relating to Applications for Payment, Change Directives, Proposed Changes, Change Orders, Progress Payments, or claims for adjustment in the Contract Sum, Required Substantial Completion Date or Required Final Completion Date.

Contractor shall incorporate such schedule into the Project Schedule. 20.2 Scope of Architect’s Review. Architect shall review Contractor’s submittals of shop drawings, samples, schedules and other documents related to items to be incorporated in the Work for aesthetic effect. Contractor shall be responsible to ensure that such submittals conform to the General Conditions of the Contract 01/2012 42 Denver Public Schools Contract Documents, and the approval of such submittals by Architect shall not relieve the Contractor from responsibility for any deviation of such submittals from the Contract Documents unless the Contractor gives the Architect specific written notice of such deviation together with such submittal, nor shall it relieve the Contractor from responsibility for errors and omissions contained in such submittals. 20.3 Review Process. The review of Contractor’s submittals shall be conducted in accordance with the provisions of the specifications contained in the Construction Documents. Such specifications will be based on the Standards. Article 21. 21.1 NOTICES How Notice May Be Given.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, meeting notes and minutes prepared by Contractor shall not constitute notice of any fact regarding which notice is permitted or required to be given under the Contract, regardless of how such notes and minutes are delivered. Article 22. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. 22.1 Status. The parties intend that Contractor shall have the status of an independent contractor, and the Contract Documents shall not be construed to render Contractor or any employee, Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor of Contractor, or any of their employees, officers or agents, an employee or partner of Owner. 22.2 Employee Benefits. Neither Contractor nor any of its employees, officers, agents, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors, or other contractors or consultants shall be entitled to any employee benefits from the District, including, but not limited to, any employer withholding or liability for any of the following: taxes; FICA contributions; other Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid contributions or withholding; medical or disability insurance; vacation or leave; pension contributions; unemployment insurance or worker’s compensation insurance (collectively, “Employee Benefits”). Contractor shall be responsible to pay all taxes due on account of any payments to Contractor by Owner under the Contract. Except to the extent, if any, that such a waiver and release may be expressly prohibited by applicable laws, Contractor waives and releases all claims against Owner for any Employee Benefits. Article 23. 23.1 NO WAIVER No Waiver. No inspection by the Architect or any other person acting on the Owner's behalf, nor any order, measurement, estimate or certificate by the Architect, nor any order by the Owner for the payment of money, nor any payment for or acceptance of any Work, nor any extension of time, nor any possession taken by the Owner, shall operate as a waiver of any right of Owner arising out of or related to the Contract.
