The value of any Work covered by a Change Order or of any claim far 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 Wvrk involved is not covered by unit prices cantained in the Contract Documents, by SectionlTl.doc Page 28 of 45 10/10/2010 1 C� ' 1 ' � ' , 1 1 ' ' ' 1 C� 1 , , ' ' Section III — General Conditions ' a mutually agreed lump sum (which rnay include an allowance far overhead and profit), (iii) where the Work is not cavered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and agreement is reached to establish unrt pz�ces for the Work. , Where the wark involved is not covered by unit prices contained in the Contract Documents and where the Owner's Representative, the Owner, the Engineer, the Engineer's Consultant, and C�ntractor cannot mutually agree on a lump sum price, the City of Clearwater shall pay far , directed changes in the WORK, on "COST REIMBURSEMENT" basis. The Contractor shall apply for compensation, detailing Contractors forces, materials, equiprnent, subcontractors, and other iterns of direct costs required for the directed work. , LJ 1 1 LJ ' ' 1 1 1 1 ' 1 , � The application for Cost Reimbursement shall be limited ta the following itezn.s: 1. Labor, including foremen, %r those haurs associated with the direct work (actual payroll cost, including wages, fringe benefits, labor insurance and labor ta.xes established by law). Expressly excluded from this itezn are all costs associated with neg�tiating the subject change. 2. Materials associat�d with the change, including sales tax. The costs of materials shall be substantiated through vendors' invoices. 3. Rental or equivalent rental costs of equipment, including necessary transportation casts if specifically used for the WORK. The rental rates shall not exceed the current rental rates prevailing in the locality or as de�ned in the rental Rate Blue Book for Canstruction Equipment (a.k.a. DataQuest Blue Book). The rental rate is detined as the full-unadjusted base rental rate for the appropriate item of construction equip�nent and shall cover the casts af all fuel, supplies, repairs, insurance, and other costs associated vvith supplying the equipnnent far wark ardered. Contractor-owned equipment will be paid for the duration af time required to complete the work. Utilize lowest cost combination of hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly rates. Do not exceed estimated operating costs given in Blue Sook. �perating cosis will not be allowed for equipment on stand-by. 4. Additional costs for Bonds, Insurance if required by the City of Clearwater. The followin� fixed fees shall be added to th� casts of the directed work performed by the Contractor or Subcontractar. A. A fixed fee of fifteen percent (1S%) shall be added to the costs of Item 1 above. If work is performed by a subcontractor, the Contractor's fee shall nat exceed five percent (S%), and the subcontractor's fee shall not exceed ten percent (10%). B. A fixed fee of ten percent (10%) shall be added ta the costs of Item 2 above. C. Na markup sha11 be added to the costs af Items 3 and 4. The fixed fees shall be cansidered the full compensation for all cost of general supervisian, overhead, profit, and other general expense. 11.2 ALLOWANCES AND FINAL CONTRACT PRICE ADJUSTMENT Tt is understood that Contractor has included in the Contract Price all allowances so named in the Contract Dacuments and shall cause the Work so covered ta be fixmished and performed for such sums as may be acceptable to Owner and Engineer. Contractor agrees that: (i) the allowances include the cost to Contractor (less any applicable trade discounts) of materials and equipment SectionITl.doc Page 29 of 45 10/10/2010 Seciion �II — General Conditions required by the allowances to be delivered at the Site, and all applicable taxes; and (ii) Contractor's costs for unloading and handling on the site, labor, installation costs, overhead, profit and other expenses contemplated for the allowances have been included in the Contract Price and not in the allowances and na demand for additional payment on account of any of the foregoing will be valid. Prior to final payment, an appropriate Change Order will be issued as recommended by Owner's Aepresentative to reflect actual amaunts due Contractor on account of Work 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 the Contract Price will be deemed to include for all Unit Price W�rk an amount equal ta the sum of the established unit price for each separately identified item of unit pz�ice work times the estimated quantity of each item as indicated in the Agreem�nt. The estimated quantities of items of Unit Price Work axe not guaranteed and are solely for the purpose of cornparison of Bids and determining an initial Contract Price. Detern�inations of the actual quantities and classifications of Unit Price Woxk 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 covez Contractor's overhead and profit �or each separately identified item. The Owner or Contractor rnay make a claim for an adjustrnent in the Contract Price i£ (i) the quantity of any item of Unit Price Work per�orn�ed by Contractor differs materially and significantly from the estimated quantity of such item indicated in the Contract Documents; and (ii) there is no corresponding adjustment with respect to any other itex� of Work; and (iii) if Contractor believes that Contractor is entitled to an increase in Contract Price as a result of having incurred additional 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 contzacts, Owner endeavors to provide adequate unit quantities to satisfactorily camp�ete the construction of the paroject. It is expected 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 praject will result in a net decrease fram the original Cantract Price. Such reasonable deduction of �nal Contract Prxce should be anticipated by the Contractor in his original bid. 12 CHANGES IN THE CONTRACT TIME The Cantract Time (or Milestones) may only be changed by a Change Order or a Written Amendment. Any claim for an adjustment of the Contract Tinae (or Milestones) shall be based on written notice delivered by the party making the clain� to the other party and to Owner's Representative promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days, after the accunrence of the event giving rise to the claim and stating the general nature of the claim. Notice oi the e�tent of the claim with supporting data shall be delivered within sixty (60) days after such occurrence, unless Owner's Representative allows an additional periad of time to ascertain more accurate data in support af the claim, and shall be accompanied by the claimant's written statement that the adjustment claimed is the entire adjustment to which the claimant has reason to believe it is entitled as a result of the occurrence af said event. All claims for adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) shall be determined by Owner's Representative. No claim for an SectionIII.doc Page 30 of 45 10/10/2010 1 1 ' 1 ' II � 1 ' 1 ' ' ' [� ' ' 1 , ' � , 1 ' 1 ' l' ' ' ' Section iII — General Conditions adjustment in the Contract Time (or Milestones) will be valid if not submitted in accordance with the requirements of this paragraph.

Where Contractor is prevented from completing any part of the Work within the Cantract Times (or Milestones) due to delay beyond the cantrol of both the Owner and Contractor, an extensian af the Contract Time (or 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 Subcnntractar, any Supplier, any other persan, or ta any surety for or employee ar agent of any of them, for damages arising out of or resulting from (i) delays caused by or within the control of Cantractor, or (ii) delays beyand the control of both parties including but nat limited to irres, floods, epidemics, abnormal weather conditions, acts of God or acts by utility owners or other contractors perfarming ather wark as contemplated by paragraph for �tlaer Wark.

SectionN.doc Page 61 of 127 10/] 1/2010 Section iV — Technical Specifacations City of Clearwater �- Erosion Control This notice is to inform the prime contractor that the City of Clearwater holds them responsible for soil erosion control on their site. The City of Clearwater Engineering Department has the responsibility ta minirnize the amount of soil erosion into the City's streets, storm sewers and waterways. The canstruction of a new residence or commercial site and major remodeling of an existing site creates a potential for soil erasion. These instances are usually the result of contzactoxs and subcontractors accessing the property with equipment or construction materials. Then rain storms redistribute the eroded soil into the adjacent streets, stoz� 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 accurrence - Waxning 2nd occurrence - $32 Re-inspection Fee 3rd occurrence - $80 Re-inspection Fee 4th occurrence - Stop Wark Order Dependent on the severity of the erosion, the City's Engineering Department may elect to rectify the erosion problem and charge the contractor accordingly. The attached drawings and details are recornrnendations for the contractor ta use as ineans to support the site from eroding. The contractor may elect to shovel and sweep the street daily or an an as needed basis. However, erosion must be held in check. If the contractor would like to meet with a City inspector on any particular site, please contact Construction Services at 562-4750 or Planning & Development Services at 552-4741. Erosion Control Required - City of Clearwater's Code oi Ordinances requires erasian contral or� all land development projects. Erosion control must be in place and maintained throughout the job. Failure to do sa may result in additianal costs and time delays to the permit halder. Contact Engineering Department with specific questions at 562-4750.

Associated tree protectian measures should be implemented upon completion of said root pruning. E. If thexe is a likelihood of excessive wind and/or rain exceptional care shall be taken on any root pruning activities. F. Root pruning shall be limited to a minimum of ten inches per one inch of the trunk diameter from the tree base. Any exception must be approved by the City's representative prior to said root pruning. G. Roots shall be cut cleanly, as far fram the trunk of the tree as possible. Root pruning shall be done to a zninimum depth of 1 S" from e�isting grade, or ta the depth of the disturbance if less than 18". H. Root pruning shall be performed using a Doscocil Root Cutting Machine or equivalent. ' Alternate equipment or techniqu�s nnust be appxoved by the City's representative, prior to any work adjacent to trees to be preserved. ' I. Roat pruning shall be completed, inspected and accepted prior to the commencement of any excavation or other impacts to the critical root zones of trees to be protected. J. Excavations in an area where root are present shall not cause the tearing or ripping of tree , roots. Roots must first be cleanly severed prior to cantinuing with the excavation, or tunneled araund to prevent damage to the root. ' K. Tree roots shall not be exposed to drying out. Root ends shall be covered with native soil or burlap and kept moist until final backfill or imal grades has been established. L.
