Substantial Completion as provided herein shall be the day the project or designated portion thereof is certified by the OWNER's Architect/Engineer as sufficiently complete,in accordance with the Contract Documents, so the OWNER can occupy or utilize the work or designated portion thereof for the use for which it is intended. Final Completion shall be FORTY • FIVE (45)calendar days thereafter. 2) The CONTRACTOR shall prosecute the work with faithfulness and diligence. 1 i 3) The CONTRACTOR further declares he has examined the project site and that from personal knowledge and experience has made sufficient investigations to fully satisfy himself that such site is correct and suitable for the work and he assumes full responsibility therefore. The provisions of this Contract shall control any inconsistent provisions contained in the specifications. All Drawings and Specifications have been read and carefully considered by the CONTRACTOR,who understands the same and agrees to their sufficiency for the work to be done. It is expressly agreed that under no circumstances, conditions or situations shall this Contract be more strongly construed against the OWNER than against the CONTRACTOR and his Surety. Any ambiguity or uncertainty in the Plans,Drawings or Specifications shall be interpreted and construed by the OWNER's designated Project Manager after consultation with the Project Architect,and the OWNER's Project Manager's decision shall be final and binding upon all parties,provided the OWNER agrees. It is distinctly understood and agreed that the passing, approval and/or acceptance of any part of the work or material by the OWNER or by any agent or representative as in compliance with the terms of this Contract and/or of the Drawings, Plans and Specifications covering said work shall not operate as a waiver by the OWNER of strict compliance with the terms of this Contract and/or the Drawings and Specifications covering said work; and the OWNER may require the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety to repair,replace,restore and/or make to comply strictly and in all things with this Contract and the Drawings and Specifications any and all of said work and/or materials which within a period of one year from and after the date of the passing, approval, and or acceptance of any such work or material, are found to be defective or to fail and in any way to comply with this Contract or with the Drawings and Specifications. This provision shall not apply to materials or equipment normally expected to deteriorate or wear out and become subject to normal repair and replacement before their condition is discovered. The CONTRACTOR shall not be required to do normal maintenance work under the guarantee provisions. Failure on the part of the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety,immediately after Notice to either, to repair or replace any such defective materials and workmanship shall entitle the OWNER, if it sees fit, to replace or repair the same and recover the reasonable cost of such replacement and/or repair from the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety, who shall in any event be jointly and severally liable to the OWNER for all damages, loss and expense caused to the OWNER by reason of the CONTRACTOR'S breach of this Contract and/or his failure to comply strictly and in all things with this Contract and/or his failure to comply strictly and in all things with this Contract and with the Drawings and Specifications. 4) As-built drawings, warranties acceptable to OWNER must be submitted to the OWNER before final payment will be made to the CONTRACTOR. 2 SECTION IV—AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES 1) Before starting work, CONTRACTOR shall designate a competent, authorized representative acceptable to OWNER to represent and act for CONTRACTOR and shall inform OWNER in writing,of the name and address of such representative together with a clear definition of the scope of his authority to represent and act for CONTRACTOR and shall specify any and all limitations of such authority.

CONTRACTOR shall keep OWNER informed in writing pursuant to the notice requirements provided herein of any subsequent changes in the foregoing. Such representative shall be present or duly represented at the site of work at all times when work is actually in progress. 2) From the time of execution of the Contract, the OWNER shall have the right to remove the CONTRACTOR's representative from the project for inappropriate behavior including, but not limited to, lack of concern for residents, or acting in an unprofessional manner(i.e. argumentative with residents or OWNER's representative and the use of foul language). 3) All notices, determinations, instructions and other communications given to the authorized representatives of the CONTRACTOR shall be binding upon CONTRACTOR. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as modifying the CONTRACTOR's duty of supervision and fiscal management as provided for by Florida law. 4) The OWNER shall designate a Project Manager who will have limited authority to act for the OWNER. The OWNER will notify the CONTRACTOR in writing of the name of such representative(s). Any other City employees are not authorized OWNER representatives and any work performed by the CONTRACTOR without proper written authorization from the Project Manager as approved by OWNER, is performed at the CONTRACTOR's risk, and the City shall have no obligation to compensate the CONTRACTOR for such work. SECTION V—LAWS AND REGULATIONS 1) CONTRACTOR and its employees and representatives shall at all times comply with all applicable laws, codes, ordinances, statutes, rules or regulations in effect at the time work is performed under this Contract. 2) If,during the term of this Contract,there are any changed or new laws,ordinances or regulations not known or foreseeable at the time of signing this Contract which become effective and which affect the cost or time of performance of the Contract,CONTRACTOR shall immediately notify OWNER in writing and submit detailed documentation of such effect in terms of both time and cost of performing the Contract. Upon concurrence by OWNER as to the effect of such changes, an adjustment in the compensation and/or time of performance will be made, if applicable. 3 3) If any discrepancy or inconsistency should be discovered between the Contract and any law,ordinance,regulation, order or decree, CONTRACTOR shall immediately report the same in writing to OWNER who will issue such instructions as may be necessary. However,it shall not be grounds for a Change Order that the CONTRACTOR was unaware of or failed to investigate the rules, codes, regulations, statutes, and all ordinances of all applicable governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Project or the work. SECTION VI—CODE RELATED INSPECTIONS The CONTRACTOR recognizes that the City of Clermont is the governing jurisdiction charged with the inspection of improvements to real property for code compliance and the improvements to be made by the CONTRACTOR pursuant to this contract may be subject to inspection by City of Clermont or its agents. The CONTRACTOR agrees that it will not assert, as a City-caused delay or as a defense of any delay on the part of the CONTRACTOR, any good faith action or series of actions on the part of the City or its agents with regard to inspections, including, but not limited to the refusal to accept any portion of the CONTRACTOR's work. SECTION VII—VALUE ENGINEERING Contractor may request substitutions of materials, articles, pieces of equipment or any • changes that reduce the contract price by making such request to the Project Manager and Project Architect/Engineer in writing. The Project Manager and Project Architect/Engineer will be the sole judge of acceptability,and no substitute will be ordered, installed, used or initiated without Project Manager and Project Architect/Engineer prior written acceptance which will be evidence by a City issued Change Order. However, any substitution accepted by Project Manager and Project Architect/Engineer shall not result in any increase in the contract price or contract time. By making a request for substitution, the Contractor agrees to pay directly to the Project Architect/Engineer fees and charges related to the Project Architect/Engineer review of the request for substitution, whether or not the request for substitution is accepted by the Project Architect/Engineer. The successful respondent also agrees to pay for any additional required design and/or permitting fees necessitated by the proposed changes. Any substitution submitted by the Contractor must meet the form, fit, function and life cycle criteria of the item proposed to be replaced and there must be a net dollar savings including Project Architect/Engineer review fees and charges. If a substitution is approved,the net dollar savings shall be shared equally between the successful respondent and City and shall be processed as a deductive Change Order. The City may require the Contractor to furnish, at their expense, a special performance guarantee or other surety with respect to any substitute approved after award of the contract: SECTION VIII—PARTIAL AND FINAL PAYMENTS In accordance with the provisions fully set forth in the Bid Documents and General Conditions,and subject to additions and deductions as provided,the OWNER shall pay the CONTRACTOR as follows: 4 1 CONTRACTOR shall submit a progress payment request by the twentieth(20th)day of each calendar month for work performed during the current calendar month, projected through the 25th.
