All duties, responsibilities and obligations assigned to or undertaken by Contractor shall be at Contractor's expense without change in the Contract Price. The Contract Price may only be adjusted by a Change Order or by a Written Arnendment.

No claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price wil! be valid if not submitted in accordance with this paragraph. The value of any Work covered by a Change Order or of any claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price will be determined as follows: (i) where the Work involved is covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by application of such unit prices to the quantities of the items involved (ii) where the Work involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents, by SectionIII.doc Page 28 of 45 10/] 0/2010 L__J � � Scction lll — Genert�l Conditions a mutually agreed lump sum (which may include an allawance for overhead and profit), (iii) where the Work is not covered by unit prices contained in the Cantract Documents and agreement is reached to establish unit prices for the Work. Where the work invalved is not covered by unit prices cantained in the Contract Documents and ' where the Owner's Representative, the Owner, the Fngineer, the Engineer's Consultant, and Contractor cannot mutually agree on a lump sum price, the City of Clearwater shall pay for directed changes in the WORK, on "C�ST REIMBU.RSEMENT" basis. The Cantractor shall � apply for compensation, detailing Contractors forces, materials, equipment, subcantractors, and other it�ms of direct costs required for the directed work. �� �� � �I � ' 1 1 � ' 1 The application for Cost Reimbursement shall be limited to the following items: �� Labor, including foremen, for those hours associated with the direct work (actual payroll cost, including wages, fringe benefits, labor insurance and labor taxes established by law). Expressly excluded from this item are all costs associated with negoCiating the subject change. Materials associated with the chan�e, including sales tax. The costs of materials shall be substantiated through vendors' invoices. 3. Rental or equivalent rental costs of equipment, including necessary transportation costs if specifically used for the WORK. The rcntal rates shal] not exceed the current rental rates prevailing in the locality or as defined in the rental Rate �31ue Book for Construction Equipment (a.k.a. DataQuest Blue Book). The rental rate is defined as the full-unadjusted base rental rate For the appropriate item of construction equipment and shall cover the costs of all fuel, supplies, repairs, insurance, and other costs associated with supplying the equipment for work ordered. Contractor-owned equipment will be paid for the duration of time required to complete the work. UCilize lowest cast combination of hourly, daily, weekly, ar monthly rates. Do not exceed estimated operating costs given in Slue Book. Operating costs will not be allowed far eyuipment on stand-by. 4. Additional costs for Sonds, Insurance if required by the City of Clearwater. The following fixed fees shall be added to the costs of the directed work performed by the Contractor or Subcontractor. A. A fixed fee of fifteen percent (15%) shall be added to the costs af Item 1 above.

A fxed fee of ten percent (10%) shall be added to the costs of ltem 2 above. C. Na markup shall be added to the casts of Items 3 and 4. The fixed fees shall be considered the full compensation for all cost of general supervision, overhead, profit, and other general expense. , 11.2 ALLOWANCES AND FINAL CONTRACT PRICE ADJUSTMENT It is understood that Contractor has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the ' Contract Documents and shall cause the Work so covered to be furnished and performed for such sums as may be acceptable to Owner and Engineer. Contractor agrees that: (i) the allowances include the cast to Contractar (less any applicable trade discounts) of rnaterials and equipment ' SectioNll.doc Page 29 of 45 ] 0/10/2010 L � Section iil — General Conditions required by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and (ii) Contractar's costs for unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs, overhead, protit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract Price and not in the allowances and no demand for additional payment on account of any of the foregoirtg will be valid. Prior ta f nal payment, an appropriat� Change Order will be issued as recammended by Owner's Representative to reflect actual amounts due Contractor on account of Woark covered by allowances and all the Work actually performed by the Contractor, and the Contract Price shall be correspondingly adjusted. 11.3 UNIT PRICE WORK Where the Contract Documents provide that all or part of the Work is to be Unit Price Work, initially t1�e Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price Work an amount equal to the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of unit price wo�rk times the estitnated quantity of each item as indicated in tl�e Agreernent. The estimat�d quantities of items of Unit Price Work are not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of comparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Determinations of the actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor will be made by Owner's Representative. Each unit price will be deemed to include an amount considered by Contractor to be adequate to cover Contractor's overhead and profit for each separately identified item. The Owner or Contractor may make a claim for an adjustment in the Contract Price if: (i) the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work performed by Contractor diFfers materially and si�nificantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Contract Documents; and (ii) there is no corresponding adjustment with respect ta any other item of Work; and (iii) if Contractor believes that Contractor is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of hav.ing incurred additiona] expense or the Owner believes that the Owner is entitled to a decrease in Contract Price and the parties are unable to agree as to the amount of any such increase or decrease. On unit price contracts, Owner endeavors to provide adequate unit quantities to satis�actorily complete the construction of the project. It is e�pected that in the normal course of project construction and completion that not all unit quantities will be used in their entirety and that a finalizing change order which adjusts contract unit quantities to those unit quantities actually used in the construction of the project will result in a net decrease from the original Contract Price. Such reasonable deduction of final Contract Price should be anticipated by the Contractor in his ariginal bid. 12 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT TIME The Contract Time (or Milestones) may only be changed by a Change �rder or a Written Amendment. Any claim for an adjustment of the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be based on written notice delivered by the party making the claim to the other party and to Owner's Representative promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days, after the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice of the extent of the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within sixty (60} days after such occurrence, unless Owner's Representative allows an additional period of time to ascertain more accurate data in support of the claim, and sha11 be accornpanied by the claimant's written statemerat that the adjustment claimed is the entire adjusCment to which the claimant has reason to believe it is entitled as a result of the occurrence of said event. All claims for adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be determined by Owner's Representative. No claim for an Sectionlll.doc Page 30 of 45 10/10/20] 0 r � � ' �J � LJ I] 1 1 , Sec[ion 111— (ieneral Conditions adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) will be valid if not submitted in accordancc with the requirements of this paragraph.

Delays attributable to and within the control of a Subcontractor or Supplier shall be deemed to be delays within the control of Contractor. Where ConCractor is prevented from cornpleting any part of the Work within the Contract Times (or Milestones) due to delay beyond the control of both the Owner and Contractor, an extension of the Contract Time (ar Milestones) in an amount equal to the time lost due to such delay shall be Contractor's sole and exclusive remedy for such delay. In no event shall the Owner be liable to Contractor, any Subcontractar, any Supplier, any other person, or to any surety far or ernployee or agent of any of them, for damages arising aut of or resulting from (i) delays caused by or within the control of Contractor, or (ii) delays beyond the control af both parties includin� but not limited to .fires, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, acts of God or acts by utility owners or other contractors performing other work as contemplated by paragraph for Other Work. 13 TESTS AND INSPECTIONS, CORRECTION, REMOVAL OR ACCEPTANCE OF DEFECTIVE WORK 13.1 TESTS AND INSPECTION � Contractor shall give Owner's Representative and Engineer timely notice of readiness of the Work for all reyuired inspections, tests or approvals, and shall cooperate with inspection and testing personnel to facilitate required inspections or tests. , ' ' , 1 1 I ..

SectionIV.doc Page 61 of ]27 10/11/2010 Section IV — Technical Specifications City of Clearwater - Erosion Control This notice is to infarm the prime contractor that the City of Clearwater holds them responsible far sail erosion control on their site. The City of Clearwater Engineering Department has the responsibility to minimize the amount of soil erosion into the City's streets, storm sewers and waterways. The construction of a new residence or commercial site and major remodeling of an existing site creates a potetttial for soil erosion. These instances are usually the result of contractors and subcontractors accessing the property with equipment or construction materials. Then rain storms redistribute the eroded soil into the adjacent street5, storm systems and waterways. When erosion takes place, a City Inspector will place a correction notice at the site. The procedure will be as follows: 1 st occurrence - Warning 2nd occurrence - $32 Re-insp�ction Fee 3rd occurrence - $80 Re-inspection Fee 4th occurrence - Stop Work Order Dependent on. the severity of the erosion, the City's Engineering Department may elect to rectify the erosion problem and charge the cantractor accordingly. The attached drawings and details are recommendatians for the contractor to use as means to support the site irom eroding. The cantracior may elect to shovel and sweep the street daily or on an as needed basis. However, erosion must be held in check. If the contractor would like to meet with a City inspectar on any particular site, please contact Construction Services at 562-4750 ar Planning & Develapment Services at Sb2-4741. Erasion Control Required - City of Clearwater's Code of Ordinances requires erosion control on all land development projects. Erosion control must be in place and znaintained througlaout the job. Failure to do so may result in additional costs and time delays to the permit holder.
