4.5.35.2                                 Special Inspections or Testing

 

4.5.35.2.1                        Whenever, in the opinion of Owner, it is desirable to require special inspection or testing of the Work or any portion thereof, Owner shall have authority to do so, regardless of whether the Work is then fabricated, installed, covered or completed.  All costs incurred in connection with such special inspection or testing shall be a Cost of the Work authorized by the issuance of a Change Order, unless the test reveals a failure of the Work to conform to the Contract Documents.  If the test indicates that the Work fails to conform to the Contract Documents, Construction Manager shall bear, without increase to the GMP, all costs of such special inspection or testing, including, without limitation, Architect’s and additional services made necessary thereby.  No inspection performed or not performed by Owner shall be deemed a waiver of any of Construction Manager’s obligations hereunder or be construed as an approval or acceptance of the Work or any part thereof.

 

4.5.35.2.2                        In the event of a test failure of any portion of the Work, Owner may require inspection or testing of any or all similar items of the Work.  Construction Manager shall bear, without increase to the GMP, all costs of such additional inspection or testing, including, but not limited to, Architect’s additional services made necessary thereby.

 

4.5.35.3                                 Covered and Concealed Work

 

If any Work is covered or concealed contrary to the request of Owner or Architect, or requirements of the Contract Documents, such Work, if required by Owner, shall be uncovered for examination, inspection or testing without increase in the GMP.  If any such test results are below minimums specified in the Contract Documents, Owner may order additional examination, testing or inspection.  Such additional examination, inspection or testing shall likewise not increase the GMP.  Should Owner or Architect have reason to believe that defects exist in any Work which has already been covered or concealed, although a request not to cover or conceal such Work had not previously been made by Owner or Architect, such Work shall be promptly uncovered by Construction Manager and subjected to such tests, inspection or examination as may be deemed appropriate by Owner or Architect.  In such case, the provisions of Sections 4.5.35.2.2 shall control with respect to the costs associated with such uncovering.

 

4.5.35.4                                 Correction of Rejected Work

 

Work rejected by Owner or Architect for failure to conform to the Contract Documents shall immediately be reconstructed, made good, replaced or corrected by Construction Manager, (including adjacent portions of the Work destroyed or damaged by such removal or replacement) without increase in the GMP.  All rejected materials shall be removed from the Project Site within a reasonable period of time.  Acceptance of materials and workmanship by Owner shall not relieve Construction Manager from its liability for and obligation to replace all Work which is not in full compliance with the Contract Documents.

 

4.5.35.5                                 Owner’s Right to Accept Defective or Non-Conforming Work

 

At Owner’s option, subject to the concurrence of the Construction Manager, Owner may accept defective or nonconforming Work or materials, instead of requiring their removal, correction or replacement, and a Change Order shall be issued.  The amount of said Change Order shall reflect a

 

36



 

reduction in the GMP in an amount equal to the aggregate cost of labor and materials which would have been incurred by Construction Manager if Owner had required Construction Manager to repair or replace such defective or nonconforming Work as required by the Contract Documents.  Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not Final Payment has been made.

 

4.5.36                Materials and Equipment

 

4.5.36.1                                 Transfer of Title and Responsibility

 

As the Work progresses, title to each item of material or equipment shall vest in Owner upon payment for such item by Owner.  Each such item shall then become the sole property of Owner, subject to the right of Architect to reject the same at any time prior to Final Completion for failure to conform to the Contract Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing contained herein shall be construed to transfer the risk of loss from Construction Manager or any Trade Contractor to Owner prior to incorporation of such materials or equipment into the Work, regardless of whether such loss is the result of damage, theft, vandalism or any other cause, or whether the same was caused by the negligent acts or omissions of Construction Manager or any Trade Contractor, or their failure to comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement or the Trade Contracts.  Accordingly, Construction Manager shall be responsible for arranging for insuring materials and equipment until the same are incorporated in the Work.  Owner shall be responsible for insuring materials and equipment from and after the date the same are incorporated into the Work as set forth in Article 14 hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner shall make arrangements to insure the foregoing applies to Pre-Purchased Items stored off-site, for which Owner has made payment.

4.5.36.3                                 Pre-Purchased Items

 

4.5.36.3.1                        Construction Manager shall be entitled to arrange for the procurement of certain Purchased Items of specified materials and equipment to be incorporated into the Work in advance of the time when such items are scheduled to be incorporated into the Work, provided that Owner shall have given its prior written consent thereto in each instance.  In such event, Construction Manager shall be entitled to requisition for 100% of the cost of such Pre-Purchased Items prior to installation.  Construction Manager, upon submission of its Application for Payment, shall deliver to Owner a bill of sale with respect to each Pre-Purchased Items evidencing unencumbered title to the same in Owner’s name, together with any warranties, certificates of insurance and other documents requested by Owner evidencing that such materials and equipment are covered by insurance as specified by Owner.

4.5.37.1.2                        Owner, in consultation with Architect, shall be the judge of the equivalency of each proposed Substitution.  Architect shall make written recommendations with regard to the acceptance or rejection of proposed Substitutions to Owner.  Owner shall then issue to Construction Manager written approval or rejection of the proposed Substitution, and Construction Manager shall inform the appropriate Trade Contractor of said approval or rejection.  Owner, in its sole discretion, may authorize rejection of a proposed Substitution, notwithstanding the fact that Architect or may have judged it equivalent and recommended acceptance of the same.  In the event that a Substitution is necessary due to the unavailability of a specified item, any rejection by the Owner under this Section shall be accompanied by a recommendation by the Owner of a readily available Substitution.

 

4.5.37.2                                 “Or Equal” Specifications

 

4.5.37.2.1                        When two or more materials or pieces of equipment are specified in the Construction Documents for an item of Work, any one thereof shall be deemed acceptable, and Construction Manager shall have the choice as to which product to use.

 

38



 

4.5.37.2.2                        When only one material or piece of equipment is specified in the Construction Documents for an item of Work and the term “or equal” is used in connection therewith, Construction Manager may offer a Substitution by submitting a written application to Architect, in sufficient time (taking into account the progress of the Work, the period of delivery of the items concerned and adequate time for Architect’s review), setting forth: (1) the proposed Substitution, together with substantiating data, samples, brochures and other documentation supporting the proposed Substitution, including, but not limited to, evidence that the proposed Substitution is equal in quality and serviceability to the specified item; will not entail changes in detail, schedule and construction of related Work; conforms with the design of the Project and its artistic intent; and will not result in an increase in the Costs of the Work; and (2) Changes in other parts of the Work required by reason of the proposed Substitution, and the cost consequences associated therewith.  A copy of any such application shall be delivered to Owner simultaneously with its delivery to Architect.

 

4.5.37.2.3                        When only one product is specified in the Construction Documents for an item of Work and the term “or equal” is not used in connection with such product, Owner, in its sole and absolute discretion, may authorize the rejection of any Substitution proposed by Construction Manager.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such specified product shall become unavailable for a material period of time, and Owner receives reasonably satisfactory proof from Construction Manager that the same shall be unavailable for reasons other than the failure of Construction Manager or a Trade Contractor to order such product in a timely manner, consistent with the Contract Documents and the Project Schedule, then, in such event, Owner shall consent to such Substitution, in which event any change in costs incurred in connection with the use of such Substitution shall be confirmed by a Change Order and included in the Costs of the Work hereunder.

 

4.5.37.3                                 Support Required for Substitutions

 

Construction Manager shall support any request for a Substitution with sufficient evidence to permit Architect to make a fair and equitable recommendation to Owner on the merits of the proposal.  Any item by a manufacturer other than those identified in the Construction Documents, or of brand name, or model number or size or generic species other than those cited in the Construction Documents, shall be considered a Substitution.

 

4.5.37.4                                 Acceptance of Proposed Substitutions

 

Acceptance by Owner of a proposed Substitution shall not relieve Construction Manager from responsibility for compliance with all of the requirements of the Contract Documents.  In addition, there shall be no increase in the Costs of the Work related to a Substitution, unless Construction Manager has notified Owner as required herein that the cost of the Substitution is an increase in the value of the substituted item, and Owner has approved such increase the issuance of a Change Order.  If Changes in other parts of the Work are required by reason of an approved Substitution, the costs of any such Changes shall likewise be confirmed by Change Order and included in the Costs of the Work.

 

4.5.37.5                                 No Time Extensions

 

Except in the instances where a specified product is not commercially available, the Project Schedule shall not be adjusted as a result of any circumstance relating to a proposed Substitution.

 

39

4.6                                 Warranties

 

4.6.1                        Materials and Equipment Warranties

 

Construction Manager warrants and represents that all materials and equipment incorporated in the Work shall be new and of good quality, free from improper workmanship and defective materials and in strict conformance with the Contract Documents and all Applicable Laws.  All Work not conforming to these requirements, including Substitutions not properly approved, may be considered defective, and must be corrected or replaced.  The Warranty on a piece of equipment installed in the Work shall: (1) commence to run on the date that the piece of equipment is first put into service under the Commissioning Plan; and (2) be the manufacturer’s standard warranty for that piece of equipment.  Owner’s option to purchase extended warranty coverage for materials and equipment shall be preserved in the applicable Bid Documents and/or Purchase Order.

 

4.6.2                        Return and Repair Warranty

 

Construction Manager shall guarantee (and shall require all Trade Contractors to guarantee) the Work for a period of one (1) year after Substantial Completion, during which time the appropriate Trade Contractor will return to the Site and replace or repair any defective or non-conforming item of Work identified by Owner.  In the event Construction Manager achieves Substantial Completion of a discrete building system, the warranties in connection with that building system will commence to run on the earlier of the date that Owner: (1) issues written approval and acceptance of such system; or (2) commences the use of the system for its intended purpose.  Owner shall give such written notice to Construction Manager promptly after discovery of an item of defective or non-conforming Work.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and in recognition that Construction Manager is required to include guarantees of the type contained in Trade Contracts, in the event that Owner shall agree in writing, in its sole discretion, to the inclusion in a specific Trade Contract of a period of guaranty which has a duration of less than one (1) year, then the obligation of Construction Manager under this Section with respect to the Work of such Trade Contractor shall be applicable only for the shorter period contained in the Trade Contract.

 

40



 

4.6.3                        No Limitation on Statute of Limitations

 

Nothing contained in this Section 4.6 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to any other obligation that Construction Manager might have under the Contract Documents.  The establishment of the time periods noted in Section 4.6.2, or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by Applicable Laws or by the terms of any warranty required by the Contract Documents, relates only to the specific obligation of the Construction Manager and the appropriate Trade Contractor to correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the breach of the obligation of the Construction Manager or any Trade Contractor to comply with the Contract Documents may be sought to be enforced.  Nor is the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish Construction Manager’s liability with respect to Construction Manager’s obligations under this Agreement affected by the provisions of Section 4.6.2.

 

4.7                                 Compliance with Affirmative Action Requirements

 

Construction Manager agrees to comply with (and to cause all Trade Contractors to comply with) the Affirmative Action Requirements set forth in Exhibit G.  Construction Manager shall retain all Project records relating to the satisfaction of Affirmative Action Requirements for a period of not less than three (3) years after Final Completion of the Project.

45



 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that if, at any time after Retainage with respect to a particular Trade Contract is released, a lien is filed against the Project which relates to Work performed or materials, equipment or supplies furnished by said Trade Contractor, and Construction Manager has failed to cancel or discharge such lien in accordance with Article 4, Owner, at its option, shall be entitled to hold back from the sums then due to Construction Manager an amount equal to all costs and expenses to be incurred by Owner in causing such lien to be discharged of record, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements;

6.2.8                        Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Owner, in its reasonable judgment, may withhold from any payment due or to become due to Construction Manager any amount which Owner, in its good faith opinion, deems sufficient to reimburse Owner for its actual or potential expenditures for the account of Construction Manager, or to secure Owner’s remedies in consequence of any actual or potential default or breach by Construction Manager under this Agreement including, without limitation, Owner’s opinion that the balance payable to Construction Manager under this Agreement would be insufficient to complete the Work.  In connection with any of the foregoing, Owner may nullify, in whole or in part, any previously approved Application for Payment upon reasonable basis.  Owner may, in its sole discretion, issue joint checks to Trade Contractors and/or Suppliers, although nothing herein shall obligate Owner to do so.

 

6.3                                 Payment Does Not Constitute Acceptance

 

No payment by Owner of any Application for Payment shall constitute acceptance by Owner of Work completed or of materials stored that are not in conformity with the Contract Documents, and no such payment shall be construed as a waiver of any right or claim by Owner in connection with such Work or stored material.

11.7.2.1  Labor strikes (including strikes affecting transportation) unless precluded by any Project labor agreement, that do, in fact, directly affect the progress of the Work; provided, however, that Time Extension in connection with an individual labor strike shall not exceed the number of Days of said strike, together with a reasonable adjustment for demobilization and remobilization.  In any event, labor grievances, under existing agreements, representative matters, informational picketing and other labor matters shall not constitute a basis for a Time Extension (Excusable Delay).

Any and all changes in the Substantial Completion and/or Final Completion Dates shall be effected by Change Order as provided in Article 10.

 

11.7.3      In the event that Construction Manager requests a Time Extension, Construction Manager shall furnish such justification and supporting evidence as Owner may deem reasonably necessary for a determination whether Construction Manager is entitled to a Time Extension under the provisions of this Agreement.  If Owner finds that Construction Manager is entitled to a Time Extension, Owner’s determination as to the total number of Days of the Time Extension shall be based upon the approved Project Schedule and on all relevant data.  The Construction Manager acknowledges and agrees that delays in activities which, do not affect the critical path of the Project Schedule or the Substantial Completion or Final Completion Dates will not be the basis for a Time Extension.  If the Owner determines that the Construction Manager is entitled to a Time Extension, an appropriate Change Order will be issued in accordance with Article 10.

ARTICLE 12

 

SEPARATE CONTRACTORS

 

12.1         Owner’s Right to Engage Separate Contractors

 

Owner reserves the right to directly engage Separate Contractors to perform work on the Project.  These Separate Contractors may perform additional work relating to the Project, but beyond the Work covered by this Agreement.  Alternatively, Separate Contractors may be engaged by Owner to perform work covered by this Agreement which is not, in the opinion of Owner, being performed by Construction Manager in a manner consistent with the Project’s cost, quality and scheduling objectives.  The Owner’s agreements with Separate Contractors may include terms, covenants, conditions and warranties different from those in any Trade Contract or the Contract Documents.

 

12.2         Cooperation and Coordination with Separate Contractors

 

Construction Manager shall, without additional compensation, cooperate and coordinate the Work with the work of such Separate Contractors.  Construction Manager shall integrate the schedules of individual Separate Contractors into the overall Project Schedule as reasonable and appropriate.  Construction Manager shall cooperate with the Separate Contractors in providing such access to the Project Site and to the Work including, but not limited to utilization of storage space, staging areas, hoists and elevators, as the Separate Contractors may reasonably request.  Construction Manager shall furnish to such Separate Contractors any services which Construction Manager furnishes to Trade Contractors including, but not limited to, use of hoists, storage and staging facilities.  Any additional costs incurred by Construction Manager in implementing its obligations under this Section shall be reimbursed by Change Order which the Owner agrees to issue.

 

12.3         Separate Contractor-Related Suspensions

 

Construction Manager understands that portions of the work of Separate Contractors may have to be performed either before, simultaneously with or after the Work, and that the Work may have to be suspended temporarily if, in Owner’s judgment, such suspension is necessary for the timely and efficient completion of the Project.  Accordingly, Construction Manager agrees that, upon request by Owner, Construction Manager shall temporarily suspend any affected Work activity during the period which, in Owner’s reasonable judgment, Construction Manager’s Work would unreasonably interfere with the Work of a Separate Contractor.  If Owner requests that Construction Manager temporarily suspend any Work, and if and to the extent that there are delays in the performance of the Work as a result thereof and Construction Manager demonstrates that the Work has actually been delayed thereby, then, the period of time during which the Work was suspended shall be recognized as an Excusable Delay, and the Construction Manager shall be granted an appropriate Time Extension.

 

12.4         Damage to Work

 

If Construction Manager causes damage to the property of Separate Contractors or to other work or property on the Project Site, Construction Manager shall promptly remedy such damage as provided in this Agreement.  If any Separate Contractor causes damage to the Work, and Construction Manager is required to remedy such damage, Owner will issue a Change Order for the cost thereof, and will further grant a Time Extension or, alternatively, Owner may direct and compensate Construction Manager for Acceleration, if the delayed activity is on the Critical Path of the Project Schedule.

Construction Manager shall preserve all Project accounting books and records for a period of one (1) year after Final Completion of the Work and, if requested by Owner, no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of said one (1) year period, deliver to Owner, at Owner’s expense, copies of all or any portion of such Project accounting books and records.

14.2.2.14.3     Insurance provided by Owner in favor of the Construction Manager and the Trade Contractors in its OCIP program shall not extend to Suppliers of Construction Manager or Trade Contractors not performing work at the project site.

16.1.4      If it shall be determined that a termination under this Section 16.1 was wrongful or unjustified, such termination shall then be deemed to be a Termination for the Convenience of Owner under Section 16.2, and the sole right, remedy and recourse of Construction Manager against Owner shall be governed and determined by Section 16.2;

 

16.1.5      In the event of the happening of any of the Events of Default, subject to the orders and powers of any involved Bankruptcy Court, Construction Manager shall not interfere, directly or indirectly, with Owner’s right and efforts to complete the Work by others or with any of the Trade Contractors.

16.4.2      If Owner shall fail: (1) to cause all such undisputed portions of such Application for Payment to be paid within fifteen (15) days after such notice; or (2) if the delay described in Section 16.4.1(2) shall continue more than fifteen (15) days after receipt of such notice, then this Agreement may be terminated by Construction Manager by written notice to Owner setting forth the date of termination, which date shall not be sooner than seven (7) days after the date of the second notice.  If, within said seven (7) day period, the matter giving rise to Construction Manager’s right to terminate this Agreement shall not have been cured or discontinued, this Agreement shall be deemed Terminated for Convenience and Construction Manager shall be compensated in the manner and to the extent set forth in Section 16.2 hereof.

ARTICLE 18

 

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

 

18.1         Practice of Architecture and/or Engineering

 

Construction Manager is not being engaged by Owner as a licensed architect and engineer.  Therefore, nothing contained in this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the obligation on the part of the Construction Manager to review the Design Documents for various purposes, shall be deemed to require or authorize Construction Manager to perform, or assume any liability for, any acts which would be deemed the practice of architecture or engineering in connection with the design of the Project.

 

18.2         Effectiveness of Agreement

 

This Agreement, when executed by the parties, shall be effective as of the date first stated above in this Agreement.  All understandings and agreements heretofore had among Construction Manager and Owner with respect to the Project are merged into, or superseded by, this Agreement.  This Agreement fully and completely expresses the agreement of the parties with respect to the Work and the Project, and it may not be modified or amended except by written agreement executed by each of the parties hereto.  Construction Manager understands and agrees that no representations of any kind whatsoever have been made to Construction Manager other than as appear in this Agreement, that it has not relied on any such representations and that no claim that it has so relied on may be made at any time and for any purpose.

 

18.3         Survival of Obligations

 

Except as specifically provided for herein, all obligations of Construction Manager survive the completion of the Work or termination of this Agreement.

 

18.4         Assignment

 

18.4.1      Assignment by Construction Manager

 

Construction Manager may not assign this Agreement or the performance of all or any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Owner, which consent may be given or withheld in Owner’s sole and exclusive discretion.  The provisions of this Section 18.4 may not be waived or otherwise modified except by a written instrument signed by Owner.

 

18.4.2      Assignment by Owner

 

18.4.2.1   This Agreement shall be freely assignable by Owner, without the consent of Construction Manager to any Lender, or to any Permitted Assignee, provided that such Lender or Permitted Assignee agrees to assume Owner’s obligations and liabilities hereunder.

 

18.4.2.2   In all other cases, Owner’s assignment of this Agreement is subject to the prior approval of Construction Manager, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  If Owner shall assign this Agreement as set forth above, Construction Manager agrees that it shall deal with such Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee in the place and stead of Owner,

 

78



 

and that it shall perform all of its obligations under this Agreement, and complete the Work in the manner required by this Agreement.  In such event, such Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee may, among other things, use the Contract Documents without payment of any additional fees or charges, and may enforce the obligations of Construction Manager hereunder with the same force and effect as if the Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee assumes the obligations and liabilities of Owner.  Upon such assignment and assumption by the Permitted Assignee or either approved assignee, Owner shall be released from all of its payment and other obligations and liabilities hereunder arising from Work to be performed subsequent to the assignment.  Construction Manager shall certify, in the form reasonably required by any such Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee, that the undertakings contained herein as to the obligations in favor of such Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee shall run in favor of such Permitted Assignee or other approved assignee.

 

18.5         Confidentiality

 

18.5.1      Confidential Information

 

18.5.1.1   As a result of Construction Manager’s participation in the Project, Construction Manager will have access and contribute to information and materials of a highly sensitive nature, including Confidential Information.  Construction Manager hereby warrants that Construction Manager and its employees and agents shall not (without in each instance obtaining the Owner’s prior written consent) disclose, make commercial or other use of, or give or sell to any person, firm, or corporation, any Confidential Information received directly or indirectly from Owner or acquired or developed in the course of the performance of this Agreement unless: (1) required to do so pursuant to Applicable Law (and then only after Construction Manager has given Owner prompt written notice of the legal compulsion and, at Owner’s expense, provided by Owner with cooperation in any attempt Owner may make to gain a protective order acceptable to Owner); or (2) it is rightfully in the possession of Construction Manager from a source other than Owner prior to the time of disclosure of the information to Construction Manager under this Agreement; or (3) it was in the public domain prior to the time of Construction Manager’s receipt; or (4) it became part of the public domain prior to the time of Construction Manager’s receipt by any means other than an authorized act or omission on the part of Construction Manager; or (5) it is supplied to Construction Manager after the time of Construction Manager’s receipt by a third party who is under no obligation to the Owner to maintain such information in confidence; or (6) it was independently developed by Construction Manager prior to the time of receipt.

 

18.5.1.2   Construction Manager’s confidentiality and non-disclosure obligations shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement as follows: (1) in the case of information or material that constitute a Trade Secret under Applicable Laws, for so long as such information and materials remain a Trade Secret; and (2) in the case of other Confidential Information, for a period of ten (10) years following the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.  All Confidential Information, regardless of form, shall be the property of Owner and shall be returned to Owner upon its request, or in any event, at the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

 

18.5.2      Trade Secrets, Trademarks and Trade Names

 

18.5.2.1   Construction Manager acknowledges that Owner will provide Construction Manager with access to certain information which may qualify as a Trade Secret under Applicable Law, and the Construction Manager agrees that for all such Trade Secrets that come into its

 

79

18.5.2.2   Without Owner’s prior written approval, the Construction Manager shall have no right to use any Trademark or Trade Name of Owner or of Owner’s Affiliated Entities.  Further, Construction Manager shall not refer to this Agreement or the Work or services performed hereunder or to any Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, in connection with any production, promotion or publication, and the Owner reserves the right in its sole discretion to release such information, time its release, and approve its form and content.

 

18.5.2.3   Construction Manager may publish any information (other than Trade Secrets and Confidential Information, which shall not be published) resulting from or relating to its services or the Work, only after obtaining the Owner’s prior written approval, which Owner may grant or withhold in its sole discretion.  The Owner’s approval, if granted, may be conditioned upon changes in the text or reasonable delay in publication to protect Trade Secrets or Confidential Information and other interests of the Owner.

 

18.5.3      Press Releases and Other Project Promotion

 

18.5.3.1   The Owner shall control all promotion in connection with the Project including, but not limited to, the issuance of press releases and the preparation and distribution of promotional materials.  Construction Manager may not publish any information regarding the Project or Construction Manager’s participation in the Project including, but not limited to, Confidential Information as described in Section 18.5.2, without the prior written approval of Owner.

83



 

18.12       Severability

18.17       Independent Contractor

 

It is expressly understood and agreed by the parties hereto that Construction Manager, in performing its obligations under this Agreement, shall be deemed an independent contractor.  Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to mean that Construction Manager and Owner are joint venturers or partners.

18.18       Limited Recourse

 

The obligations of Owner do not constitute personal obligations of any natural persons who comprise the trustees, officers, shareholders, employees or agents of Owner.  All persons dealing with Owner shall look solely to the assets of Owner for satisfaction of any liability of Owner and will not seek recourse against any natural persons who comprise such trustees, officers, shareholders, employees or agents or any of them or any of their personal assets for such satisfaction.  However, this clause shall not protect such persons from willful misconduct or acts committed in violation of any duty of corporate loyalty.

SUBCONTRACT AGREEMENT

 

THIS SUBCONTRACT AGREEMENT (hereinafter “Subcontract”), made this        day of             , 20   , by and between AMEC CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT INC., (hereinafter “Contractor”) and                                                                                                                                                                       of                                                 (hereinafter “Subcontractor”).

 

WITNESSETH:

 

WHEREAS, Contractor and                                                                                                          (hereinafter “Owner”) have entered into a contract dated                         for the construction of

 

(hereinafter “Project”), according to the documents listed in Exhibit I attached hereto (hereinafter “Contract Documents” in which Contractor is referred to as the “Construction Manager”); and

 

WHEREAS, Contractor desires to subcontract certain work specified in the Contract Documents, and Subcontractor desires to perform said work at the prices and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter expressed;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein expressed, the parties do contract as follows:

 

1.            Subcontractor’s Work

 

a.             Subcontractor shall perform all work and shall furnish all supervision, labor, materials, plant, hoisting, scaffolding, tools, equipment, supplies and all other things necessary for the construction and completion of the work described in Schedules A and B to Exhibit II and work incidental thereto (hereinafter “Work”) in strict accordance and full compliance with the terms of this Subcontract and to the satisfaction of Contractor and Owner.  The Subcontractor’s Work is not limited by any titles on drawings or headings in the specifications, it being the intention of the parties that all items and services customarily performed with the Work described in Schedules A and B of Exhibit II shall be performed by Subcontractor, including any and all items and services consistent with, contemplated by and reasonably inferable from the Subcontract and Contract Documents as necessary to provide a complete and fully functioning scope of Work, whether or not such items and services are specifically mentioned therein, unless specifically excluded from Schedules A and B of Exhibit II.  Subcontract hereby represents that it has fully reviewed the requirements of this Subcontract (including without limitation all plans and specifications and all requirements of the Contract Documents) in preparation for execution of this Subcontract.  Therefore, any error, ambiguity, inconsistency or omission in the Subcontract and/or Contract Documents of which the Subcontractor had, or should have had, knowledge (taking into consideration the intent of the scope of Work provided in Schedules A and B of Exhibit II and the Contract Documents and that which is necessary to produce a full, complete and functional scope of Work) shall not be the basis for any increase in the amount payable under this Subcontract or time required to perform the Work.  Should any errors, ambiguities, inconsistencies or omissions appear in the Subcontract and/or Contract Documents of which Subcontractor did not have, or should not have had, knowledge before execution of this Subcontract, it shall be the duty of the Subcontractor to notify Contractor of same in writing in accordance with the notice requirements contained herein.  Upon receipt of such notice, Contractor shall instruct Subcontractor as to the measures to be taken and Subcontractor shall comply therewith.

 

b.             With respect to the Work covered by this Subcontract, Subcontractor shall, in accordance with the attached copy of the Contract Documents, have all rights toward the Contractor that Contractor has toward the Owner and Subcontractor shall assume all obligations, risks and responsibilities towards Contractor that Contractor has assumed towards Owner.  All of the terms of the attached copy of the Contract Documents, whether administrative or

 

3



 

substantive in nature, are hereby incorporated by reference as additional terms and conditions of this Subcontract governing Subcontractor’s rights and obligations hereunder.  In addition to other rights and remedies set forth in this subcontract, Contractor shall, in accordance with the attached copy of the Contract Documents, have all rights and remedies against Subcontractor that Owner has against Contractor.  Subcontractor shall have the right to enforce its rights and remedies and to defend against claims against it by the Owner as provided in Article 11 herein.  It is intended that the Contract Documents and this Subcontract Agreement supplement each other, and in the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of the attached copy of the Contract Documents and this Subcontract Agreement, the more restrictive provisions as applied to the Subcontractor shall prevail and govern irrespective of whether such provisions are interpreted to be administrative or substantive in nature.

 

2.            Payment

 

a.             Contractor shall pay Subcontractor for performance of the Work subject to additions and deductions by change order, the total sum of Dollars ($                   ) (“Subcontract Price”).  Schedule C to Exhibit II lists the Unit Price Schedule, where applicable and Schedule D to Exhibit II lists the Alternate Price Schedule, where applicable.

 

b.             Partial payments shall be due Subcontractor in the amount of 90% of the Work in place, and for which payment has been made to Contractor by Owner.  If the Contract Documents allow Contractor partial payments for stored materials, partial payments shall also be due Subcontractor in the amount of 90% of stored materials for which payment has been made to Contractor by Owner.  Subcontractor shall submit a breakdown of the total Subcontract price.  In the event Contractor disapproves said breakdown, Contractor shall establish a reasonable breakdown which shall serve as the basis for partial payments.

 

c.             Partial payments shall be due on or about the 10th day following receipt of payment from Owner by Contractor.  No partial payment made under this Subcontract shall be considered an acceptance of the Work in whole or in part.  All material and Work covered by partial payments shall become the property of Contractor, or, if the Contract Documents so provide, the property of Owner; however, this provision shall not relieve Subcontractor from the sole responsibility and liability for all Work and materials upon which payments have been made until final acceptance thereof by Owner.

 

d.             If the Subcontractor is making satisfactory progress with the Work (in the Contractor’s reasonable opinion), is not in default under this Subcontract or under any other Contract Document, is in compliance with all the documentation requirements of this Subcontract and the Contract Documents and if (but only to the extent that) the Contractor, as a condition precedent to Subcontractor’s right to receive such payment, has received payment from the Owner for such Work, the Contractor will, subject to other provisions of this Subcontract, make monthly payments to the Subcontractor as set forth above in subparagraphs (b) and (c) of this Article 2.  Subcontractor agrees to look solely to such funds received by Contractor from Owner for payments to Subcontractor hereunder.  Subcontractor further agrees that delay in payment or non-payment by the Owner does not create any separate obligation of Contractor to pay regardless of the extent of the delay.  Final payment shall be made after Subcontractor’s Work has been accepted by Owner, satisfactory proof of payment of all amounts owed by Subcontractor in connection with this Subcontract has been provided, the Subcontractor’s Work is complete, all waivers and releases required by the Contract Documents have been submitted by the Contractor and Contractor has been paid in full for the Subcontractor’s Work.  Contractor may withhold amounts otherwise due under this Subcontract or any other contractual arrangement between the parties to cover any costs or liability Contractor has incurred or may incur for which Subcontractor may be responsible.

 

e.             After the first partial payment hereunder, Contractor shall have the right to withhold any subsequent partial payments until Subcontractor submits evidence satisfactory to Contractor that all previous amounts owed in connection with performance of this Subcontract have been paid. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subcontract or the existence of any performance of labor and material payment bond, the Contractor is hereby empowered but not required at any time to withhold from the Subcontractor an amount or amounts equal in the opinion of the Contractor to the amounts necessary to complete the entire Work, or any part thereof, and to pay and fully discharge any claims or liens arising out of the Work performed under this Subcontract that may arise and be unpaid for which, if established, the Contractor or the Owner may become liable.  Without limitation of any other rights or remedies of Contractor, the amount of all such payments of the Subcontractor’s obligations by the Contractor shall be deducted from the Subcontract Price then unpaid.  If any such obligations, claims or liens exceed the amount of the Subcontract Price then unpaid or arise after Contractor has paid or otherwise satisfied the full Subcontract Price in accordance with and

 

4



 

subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Subcontractor, immediately upon demand, shall pay to the Contractor all monies that the Contractor may have paid to discharge such obligations, liens or claims with respect to the Project.  Nothing herein is intended to limit or preclude the rights of the Contractor under other terms of this Subcontract to backcharges, set-offs or other claims against the Subcontractor in regard to the matters addressed in this Clause or otherwise.  Subcontractor and Contractor agree that ten dollars ($10) of the amount Contractor pays Subcontractor pursuant to this Subcontract is consideration for the acceptance and agreement by Subcontractor to the payment terms set forth in this Subcontract.  Retention shall be paid to the Subcontractor in accordance with the Contract Documents, less in any event any amounts the Contractor has applied to cure any default by Subcontractor under the Contract Documents.

 

f.              Final payment shall be made after Subcontractor’s Work has been accepted by Owner, satisfactory proof of payment of all amounts owed by Subcontractor in connection with this Subcontract has been provided, the Subcontractor’s Work is complete and Contractor has been paid in full for the Subcontractor’s Work.

 

3.                                       Subcontractor’s Investigations and Representations

 

Subcontractor represents that it is fully qualified to perform the Work of this Subcontract, and acknowledges that, prior to the execution of this Subcontract, it has (a) by its own independent investigation ascertained (i) the Work required by this Subcontract, (ii) the conditions involved in performing the Work, and (iii) the obligations of this Subcontract and the Contract Documents; and (b) verified all information furnished by Contractor or others satisfying itself as to the correctness and accuracy of that information.  Any failure by Subcontractor to independently investigate and become fully informed will not relieve Subcontractor from its responsibilities hereunder.

 

4.                                       Subcontractor’s Liability

 

a.             To the fullest extent permitted by law, Subcontractor hereby assumes the entire responsibility and liability for all Work, supervision, labor and materials provided hereunder, whether or not erected in place, and for all plant, scaffolding, tools, equipment, supplies and other things provided by Subcontractor until final acceptance of the Work by Owner.  In the event of any loss, damage or destruction thereof from any cause, Subcontractor shall be liable therefor and shall repair, rebuild and make good said loss, damage or destruction at Subcontractor’s cost.

 

b.             Subcontractor shall be liable to Contractor for all costs and/or damages Contractor incurs as a result of Subcontractor’s failure to perform this Subcontract in accordance with its terms.  Subcontractor’s failure to perform shall include the failure of its suppliers and/or subcontractors of any tier to perform.

 

c.             Subcontractor’s assumption of liability is independent from, and not limited in any manner by, the Subcontractor’s insurance coverage obtained pursuant to Article 6, or otherwise.

 

5.                                       Indemnification

 

To the extent permitted by law, Subcontractor shall indemnify, defend, save and hold the Owner, the Contractor, the Contractor’s Sureties, the Architect (excluding with respect to the Architect, claims arising out of (i) the preparation or approval of maps, drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, Change Orders, designs or specifications, or (ii) the giving of or the failure to give direction or instructions by the Architect, his agent or employees, provided such giving or failure to give is the primary cause of the injury or damage) and their respective partners, parents, affiliates, agents, officers, employees and anyone else acting for or on behalf of any of them (herein collectively called “Indemnitees”) harmless from and against all liability, damage, loss, claims, demands and actions of any nature whatsoever which arise out of or are connected with, or are claimed to arise out of or be connected with the performance of Work by the Subcontractor, or any act or omission of Subcontractor.  As used in this Paragraph 5, the term “Subcontractor” shall include its lower tier subcontractors.

 

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such defense and indemnity includes all liability, damages, loss, claims, demands and actions on account of personal injury, death or property loss to any Indemnitee, any of Indemnitees’ employees, agents, contractors or Subcontractors, licensees or invitees, or other contractor or Subcontractor, their employees, agents, Subcontractors, licensees or invitees or to any other persons, whether based upon, or claimed to be based upon, statutory (including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, workers compensation), contractual, tort or other liability of any Indemnitee, contractor, Subcontractor or any other persons.  In addition, the liability, damages, loss, claims, demands and actions indemnified against shall include all liability, damage, loss, claims, demands and actions for trademark, copyright or patent infringement, for unfair competition or infringement of any other so-called “intangible” property rights which arise out of any failure of Subcontractor to discharge its duties.

 

In the event more than one Subcontractor is connected with an accident or occurrence covered by this indemnification, then all of such Subcontractors shall be jointly and severally responsible to the Indemnitees for

 

5



 

indemnification and the ultimate responsibility among such indemnifying Subcontractors for the loss and expense of any such indemnification shall be settled by separate proceedings and without jeopardy to any Indemnitee.  The provisions of the indemnity provided for herein shall not be construed to indemnify any Indemnitee for its sole negligence if not permitted by law or to eliminate or reduce any other indemnification or right which Owner, Contractor or Architect has by law or the Contract Documents

 

Subcontractor expressly understands and agrees that any performance bond or insurance protection required by this Subcontract or as otherwise provided by Subcontractor shall in no way limit the responsibility to indemnify, defend, save and hold the Indemnitees harmless as herein provided.

 

The foregoing indemnification agreement by Subcontractor shall be included in each of its sub-subcontracts and shall be in favor of the Indemnitees and Subcontractor.

 

The Subcontractor shall bear any expense, whether incurred or paid, of any Indemnitee because of any claim or other matter indemnified against hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs arising from the in the defense of any such claim.  If any such claim has not been settled or discharged when the Work is finished, final settlement between the Contractor and the Subcontractor and final payment of the Subcontract Price and the acceptance of the Work shall be deferred until any such claim is paid or settled or the Subcontractor provides a bond, acceptable to the Contractor, in its sole discretion, to satisfy such claim.  At the request of any Indemnitee, the Subcontractor, at its own expense, shall assume the defense, on behalf of such Indemnitee, of any such claim; provided, however, that any attorney employed in such defense must be satisfactory to such Indemnitee.  Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that ten dollars ($10.00) of Subcontractor’s compensation pursuant to this Subcontract has been paid by Contractor in consideration of Subcontractor agreeing to these defense, indemnity and hold harmless obligations.

 

6.                                       Subcontractor’s Insurance

 

(i)            Prior to commencing the Work, Subcontractor shall procure and thereafter maintain at its own expense until final acceptance of the Work, insurance coverage as described in the “Insurance Schedule” attached to this subcontract as Schedule E to Exhibit II.

 

(ii)           In the event Owner elects to utilize an owner-controlled insurance program, such program shall be implemented in accordance with the guidelines of The Owner Controlled Insurance Program (“OCIP”) attached hereto as Exhibit III.  In such event, Contractor shall be entitled to a credit for the cost of insurance coverages included in the Subcontract Price that are procured through the OCIP.  Subcontractor shall still be obligated to provide all insurance coverages not included under the OCIP which are required by Schedule E to Exhibit II as part of the Subcontract Price.

 

7.                                       Performance Bond and Labor and Material Payment Bond

 

The Subcontractor shall furnish at Subcontractor’s expense a Performance Bond and a Payment Bond, each in the full amount of this Subcontract.  The bond forms shall be in accordance with Schedules F, G and H of Exhibit II and shall be subject to Owner’s and Contractor’s approval for adequacy of protection and the satisfactory character of the surety.  The surety shall have an A.M. Best rating of B+, VII or better.  The failure of the Subcontractor to furnish required bonds within ten (10) days after having been given notice by Contractor shall constitute a material failure to perform this Subcontract giving rise to a termination for default pursuant to Article 10 herein.

 

8.                                       Time of Performance

 

a.             Subcontractor will proceed with the Work in a prompt and diligent manner, in accordance with Contractor’s schedule as reasonably amended from time to time.  TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.  Subcontractor shall be entitled to additional compensation for compliance with schedule amendments only to the extent, if any, that the Contract Documents entitle Contractor to reimbursement in connection with same.

 

b.             If requested by Contractor, Subcontractor shall submit a detailed schedule for performance of the Subcontract in a form acceptable to Contractor which shall comply with all scheduling requirements of the Contract Documents and with Article 8.a above.  Contractor may, at its sole discretion, direct Subcontractor to make reasonable modifications and revisions in said schedule.

 

c.             Subcontractor will coordinate its Work with the work of Contractor, other subcontractors and Owner’s other builders, if any, so that no delays or interferences occur in the completion of any part or all of the Project.

 

d.             Should the Subcontractor be delayed, impacted or disrupted in the performance of this Subcontract, it shall be entitled to an extension of time only for delays caused by any acts or causes which would entitle the

 

6



 

Contractor to an extension of time under the Contract Documents and for delays caused solely by the Contractor but Subcontractor shall not be entitled to any increase in the Subcontract Price or to damages or additional compensation as a consequence of such delays, impacts or disruptions, regardless of whether such delays or disruptions are unreasonable or unforeseeable, unless the Owner is liable and pays for such delays, impacts or disruptions.  The Contractor will pay the Subcontractor the amount allowed and paid by the Owner for the Subcontractor’s delay, impact or disruption.  Within three (3) days after the commencement of any delay, impact or disruption in the performance of its Work hereunder, the Subcontractor shall notify the Contractor in writing stating full details of the cause of the alleged delay, impact or disruption.  In any event, the Subcontractor shall notify the Contractor of any delays, impacts or disruptions for which the Owner is responsible, in sufficient time so that its claim may be timely processed against the Owner administratively.  Failure to provide timely notice of delays for which the Owner is responsible in accordance with the Contract Documents shall result in a waiver of any such claim by Subcontractor to the extent Contractor is prejudiced thereby.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event Subcontractor is entitled to an extension of time hereunder, Contractor reserves the right, exercised in its sole discretion, to order acceleration and/or compression of the schedule applicable to the Work covered by this Subcontract and to compensate Subcontractor for the costs associated therewith in lieu of granting an extension of time.

 

9.                                       Changes

 

a.             Contractor may, at any time, unilaterally or by agreement with Subcontractor, and without notice to the sureties, make changes in the Work covered by this Subcontract.  Any unilateral order or agreement under this Article 9.a shall be in writing.  Subcontractor shall perform the Work as changed without delay.

 

b.             Subcontractor shall submit in writing any claims for adjustment in the price, schedule or other provisions of the Subcontract claimed by Subcontractor for changes directed by Contractor or as a result of deficiencies or discrepancies in the Contract Documents, to Contractor in time to allow Contractor to comply with the applicable provisions of the Contract Documents.  Failure to submit timely notice of such claims in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents shall result in a waiver of any such claim by Subcontractor to the extent Contractor is prejudiced thereby.  Contractor shall process said claims in the manner provided by and according to the provisions of the Contract Documents so as to protect the interest of Subcontractor and others including Contractor.  Subcontract adjustments shall be made only to the extent that Contractor is entitled to relief from or must grant relief to Owner.  Furthermore, each Subcontract adjustment shall be equal only to Subcontractor’s allocable share of any adjustment in Contractor’s contract with Owner.  Subcontractor’s allocable share shall be determined by Contractor, after allowance of Contractor’s normal overhead, profit and other interest in any recovery by making a reasonable apportionment, if applicable, between Subcontractor, Contractor and other subcontractors or persons with interest in the adjustment.  This paragraph will also cover other equitable adjustments or other relief allowed by the Contract Documents.

 

c.             For changes ordered by Contractor independent of Contract Documents, Subcontractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the Subcontract Price.

 

10.                                 Subcontractor’s Failure to Perform

 

a.             If, in the opinion of Contractor, Subcontractor shall at any time (1) refuse or fail to provide sufficient properly skilled workmen or materials of the proper quality, (2) fail in any respect to prosecute the Work according to the current schedule, (3) cause, by any action or omission, the stoppage, or delay of or interference with the work of Contractor or of any other builder or subcontractor, (4) fail to comply with all provisions of this Subcontract or the Contract Documents, (5) be adjudged a bankrupt, or make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (6) have a receiver appointed, (7) become insolvent or a debtor in reorganization proceedings or (8) fail to make payments to its lower-tier subcontractors or suppliers, then, after serving three (3) days’ written notice, unless the condition specified in such notice shall have been eliminated within such three (3) days, the Contractor may at its option without voiding the other provisions of the Subcontract and without notice to the sureties, (i) take such steps as are necessary to overcome the condition, in which case the Subcontractor shall be liable to Contractor for the cost thereof, (ii) terminate the Subcontract for default, or (iii) seek specific performance of Subcontractor’s obligations hereunder, it being agreed by Subcontractor that specific performance may be necessary to avoid irreparable harm to Contractor and/or Owner.  In the event of termination for default, Contractor may, at its option, (1) enter on the premises and take possession, for the purpose of completing the Work, of all materials and equipment of Subcontractor, (2) require Subcontractor to assign to Contractor any or all of its subcontract or purchase orders involving the project, or (3) complete the Work either by itself or through others, by whatever method Contractor may deem expedient.  In case of termination for default, Subcontractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the Work shall be fully completed and accepted by Owner.  At such time, if the unpaid balance of the Subcontract Price to be paid shall exceed the expense incurred by Contractor, such excess shall be paid by Contractor to Subcontractor.  However, if such amount incurred by Contractor shall exceed such unpaid balance, then,

 

7



 

Subcontractor shall pay Contractor the difference within five (5) business days following demand by Contractor.  Subcontractor shall pay all reasonable costs of collection, if any.

 

b.             If Contractor wrongfully exercises any option under 10.a. (i) (ii) or (iii) above, Contractor shall be liable to Subcontractor for the reasonable value of Work performed by Subcontractor prior to Contractor’s wrongful action plus the direct costs incurred by Subcontractor as a result of Contractor’s wrongful action plus, in the case of a wrongful termination for default, reasonable close-out costs, less prior payments made, upon Contractor’s receipt of payment for same from Owner.  The Subcontractor’s remedy under this Article 10.b, shall be exclusive.  Nothing herein shall bar withholdings by Contractor permitted by other provisions of this Subcontract.

 

11.                                 Settlement of Disputes

 

a.             In case of any dispute between Contractor and Subcontractor, due to any action of Owner or involving the Contract Documents, Subcontractor agrees to be bound to Contractor to the same extent that Contractor is bound to Owner, by the terms of the Contract Documents and by any and all preliminary and final decisions or determinations made thereunder by the party, board or court so authorized in the Contract Documents or by law whether or not Subcontractor is a party to such proceedings.  In case of such dispute, Subcontractor will comply with all provisions of the Contract Documents allowing a reasonable time for Contractor to analyze and forward to Owner any required communications or documentation.  Contractor will, at its option, (1) present to Owner in Contractor’s name, or (2) authorize Subcontractor to present to Owner, in Contractor’s name, all of Subcontractor’s claims and answer Owner’s claims involving Subcontractor’s Work, whenever Contractor is permitted to do so by the terms of the Contract Documents.  If such dispute is prosecuted or defended by Contractor, Subcontractor agrees to furnish all documents, statements, witnesses, and other information required and to pay or reimburse Contractor for all costs incurred in connection therewith.  The Subcontract Price shall be adjusted by Subcontractor’s allocable share determined in accordance with Article 11 hereof.  The use of the dispute resolution procedure in this paragraph 11.a. is a condition precedent to the use of any other dispute resolution procedure authorized and allowed by this Subcontract in case of disputes between Contractor and Subcontractor due to any action of Owner or involving the Contract Documents.

 

b.             With respect to any controversy between Contractor and Subcontractor not involving Owner or the Contract Documents, Contractor shall issue a decision that shall be followed by Subcontractor.  If the Subcontractor is correct as to the controversy, Subcontractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment in the Subcontract Price as its sole remedy.  Notification of any such claim for equitable adjustment must be asserted in writing within ten (10) days of Subcontractor’s knowledge of the claim.

 

c.             Failure by Subcontractor to submit requests or claims for additional compensation or time for performance in accordance with the provisions of this Subcontract or the Contract Documents shall constitute a waiver of such claims or requests by Subcontractor and shall be deemed adequate grounds for rejection of same by Contractor.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, failure to submit such requests and claims in relation to claims for which the Owner is ultimately responsible shall constitute a waiver only to the extent the Contractor is prejudiced thereby.

 

d.             Any dispute arising out of or relating to this Subcontract (i) not due to any action of the Owner or not involving the Contract Documents or (ii) decided by Owner and there remains a dispute between Contractor and Subcontractor, shall be resolved by a court of competent jurisdiction in the state and county in which the project is located or some other location designated by Contractor unless Contractor elects to refer the matter to arbitration in which case the dispute shall be decided by arbitration in accordance with the then current Construction Industry Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”).  Provided, however, the arbitration shall not be under the administration of the AAA but by one (1) independent and impartial arbitrator mutually selected by the parties.  The arbitration shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1-16, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof.  The place of arbitration shall be New York City.  The arbitrator is not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory damages and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right to recover such damages with respect to any dispute resolved by arbitration.

 

12.                                 Warranty

 

Subcontractor warrants its Work hereunder to Contractor on the same terms and for the same period as Contractor warrants the Work to Owner under the Contract Documents.  With respect to Subcontractor’s Work, Subcontractor shall perform all warranty obligations and responsibilities assumed by Contractor under the Contract Documents.

 

8



 

13.                                 Liens

 

a.             In the event that liens are filed by anyone in relation to the labor and/or material being furnished by Subcontractor, Subcontractor agrees to have the same discharged (by posting a bond with the appropriate authorities or otherwise) within five (5) days of notice.  In the event such lien is not so discharged, such circumstances shall be deemed a failure to perform the Work on the part of the Subcontractor subject to the conditions and terms set forth in Article 10 above.

 

b.             Prior to final payment, Subcontractor shall provide to Contractor a release of its liens and claims and of all liens and claims of all persons furnishing labor and/or materials for the performance of this Subcontract as well as satisfactory evidence that there are no other liens or claims whatsoever outstanding against the Work.

 

c.             If required by Contractor, Subcontractor shall furnish releases of liens with respect to all prior payments, as part of each request for partial payment other than the initial request.

 

14.                                 Inspection and Acceptance

It is the policy of the State of New York, Empire State Development (“ESD”) and 42nd St. Development Project, Inc., (“42DP”) to comply with all federal, State and local law, policy, orders, rules and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or marital status, and to take affirmative action to ensure that Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (M/WBEs), Minority Group Members and women share in the economic opportunities generated by ESD’s and/or its subsidiaries’ participation in projects or initiatives, and/or the use of ESD/42DP funds.

 

1)             The Contracting Party represents that its equal employment opportunity policy statement incorporates, at a minimum, the policies and practices set forth below:

 

(a)           Contracting Party shall (i) not discriminate against employees or applicants for employment because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability or marital status, (ii) undertake or continue existing programs of affirmative action to insure that Minority Group Members and women are afforded equal employment opportunities without discrimination, and (iii) make and document its conscientious and active efforts to employ and utilize Minority Group Members and women in its workforce on Contracts.  Such action shall be taken with reference to, but not limited to, recruitment, employment, job assignment, promotion, upgrading, demotion, transfer, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and selection for training or retraining, including apprenticeship and on-the-job training.

 

(b)           At the request of the AAO, the Contracting Party shall request each employment agency, labor union, or authorized representative of workers with whom it has a collective bargaining or other agreement or understanding, to furnish a written statement that such employment agency, labor union, or representative does not unlawfully discriminate, and that such union or representative will affirmatively cooperate in the implementation of the Contracting Party’s obligations herein.

VIII.        Non-Compliance and Sanctions

 

In the event that any Contracting Party violates any of the provisions herein, the ESD and/or 42DP may require that the following sanctions and remedies for non-compliance be imposed:

 

(a)           Within twenty (20) days after the end of each calendar month, the AAO will review the Monthly Employment Utilization Report and the MBE/WBE Compliance Report filed with the AAO to assess compliance with the established program.  If the Contracting Party has failed to file the required monthly reports and/or if in the reasonable judgment of the AAO, an analysis of the reports reveals apparent underutilization, the AAO may elect to notify (which notification shall be in writing) the Contracting Party in writing (the “First Notice”), which notice shall describe the nature and extent of the apparent underutilization.

 

(b)           If the AAO’s review and analysis of the Contracting Party’s reports filed in the month next following the month in which the Contracting Party received the First Notice reveals that there continues to be apparent underutilization, then the AAO may notify the Contracting Party in writing (the “Second Notice”) which notice shall describe the nature and extent of the continuing apparent underutilization and will arrange a conference (allowing three days advance notice to the Contracting Party) which the Contracting Party must attend, at which the AAO will identify in consultation with Tenant, specific reasonable and practicable corrective measures from among those available to demonstrate Best Efforts which the Contracting Party will undertake.

 

(c)           If the AAO’s review and analysis of the Contracting Party’s reports filed in the month next following the month in which the Contracting Party received the Second Notice reveals continuing apparent underutilization and if the Contracting Party has not already undertaken the specific corrective measures agreed upon to demonstrate its Best Efforts, the AAO may notify the Contracting Party in writing (the “Final Notice”), which notice shall describe the nature and extent of the continuing apparent underutilization.  Upon receipt of the Final Notice, the Contracting Party shall be required to comply with the following sanctions and remedies for compliance:

 

(1)           The Contracting Party shall attend a hearing with the AAO.

 

(2)           After any such hearing, and a determination by the AAO that the Contracting Party has failed to comply with any of these provisions, and the passage of time in which to remedy such failure has transpired, and as the sole remedy for non-compliance, the AAO, in his/her sole discretion, may assess liquidated damages against the Contracting Party for failure to demonstrate its best efforts in complying with the affirmative action program.  Liquidated damages may be assessed in an amount equal to the dollar value of Contracts that would have been realized by M/WBEs if the goals had been achieved.

 

(3)           If such an award is assessed against any Contracting Party, the amount of such assessment may be withheld from any monies due to the Contracting Party by the ESD and/or 42DP or, may be paid to the ESD and/or 42DP by the Contracting Party that has been found to fail to comply with the affirmative action program provided, however, that nonpayment of any such assessment by any Contracting Party shall be subject to the right and time to cure of a recognized mortgagee pursuant to subsection 11.3(b) of this Lease.  Any liquidated damages collected hereunder shall be paid into one or more M/WBE technical assistance funds administered by the ESD and/or 42DP.

 

(d)           Such sanctions that may be imposed and remedies invoked hereunder, shall be considered independent of, or in addition to, sanctions and remedies otherwise provided by law.

(f)            In no event shall any Recognized Mortgage (or its designee or other successor-in-interest) which acquires Tenant’s interest in the Lease by foreclosure (or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure) of its Recognized

 

4



 

Mortgage be liable for any damages accruing prior to the time of such acquisition of Tenant’s interest in the Lease.

CLE EMPLOYER PARTICIPATION

 

The Contractor and Subcontractor will each employ the fourth person to work on this project for their respective company, through the Community Labor Exchange Program.  In addition, each fourth person employed thereafter, will be hired through the Community Labor Exchange.  (Every 4th job slot will be filled by an employee hired from the CLE).

 

In the event of temporary jobs for specific tasks, of intense labor, for short term duration, the employer will hire at no less than the same proportions from the Community Labor Exchange Program as defined in the previous paragraph.  Termination of such employees will be based on industry accepted practices of “last hired, first fired” basis, applied to all temporary employees without preference.  Contractors and Subcontractors who employ smaller numbers, will negotiate the hiring of Community Labor Exchange workers on an individual basis with the intent of achieving the best results possible.

 

LOCAL EMPLOYMENT

 

DEGA will set up meetings with the residents community resource or trade organizations to address the compiling of lists of qualified skilled local residents for employment.  The list compiled will be used by the Construction Manager to fill its own work crew, if any, on the job with qualified, local, skilled persons.

 

AGENCY AND COMMUNITY REFERRALS

 

Referrals by the community agencies must be made to the CM’s on site office.  The CM’s EEO/AA representative will immediately have the referred person fill out an application and will add the name to the log indicating the name, address, union affiliation where applicable, and referral.  The person’s name will be added to the list of other walk-ins and will be referred to the appropriate trade when work begins.  The On Site Manager or designated superintendent will maintain a log on all referrals, hires, etc. and will share said information with DEGA personnel.  DEGA will disseminate on site an information sheet on how walk-ins to the job, seeking work, can apply for training certification.

 

CONTRACTORS PRESENT WORKFORCE

 

To ensure that opportunities are afforded to local applicants and other walk ins, wherever possible the contractor/subcontractor will be required to submit a pre-award workforce list with the name address, social security, ethnic background, or the workforce which she/he is bringing on to the site from its existing workforce and how many jobs will afford new opportunities for employment of local or walk-ins or referrals from other community sources.

 



 

FOLLOW-UP ON REFERRALS

 

Upon request DEGA may follow-up on referrals made by community sources, or officials or it may opt to respond to these matters through its EEO staff or other designated person.

 

Contractors will accept referrals for walk-in, unskilled laborers, trainees, journey persons, etc.  Wherever possible, referral sources will be asked to send the person to the trailer.  Once the application is completed, the information on persons referred will be submitted to the contractor/subcontractor related to their trade or job function, for employment consideration.

 

WALK-INS

 

All walk-ins will report to the on site office where they will receive an application.

 

Walk-In Procedures

 

Walk-ins must be directed to the CM’s on site office regardless of the position they are seeking.  The person making the referral to the trailer must point out that an application must be filled out and they must be interviewed before they can come on the worksite.

 

All referrals to the on site office must be documented in a log which indicates the date, name of the applicant, address, telephone, position applied for, who referred them to the position applied for, whether they belong to a union, etc. whether person was referred, back to the contractor.

 

Protected Information

 

Under law no one may be asked their ethnic background or other protected information.  Therefore, all information relative to ethnicity and sex (Black, Hispanic, Asian etc.) and gender ( M, F) required in the application and many required logs or forms on the site which must be filled in based on what the person who is filling out the application, log, or report has observed.

 

The law does not allow contractors to request the ethnic background and sex of the applicants.  It does however, allow the person interviewing or filling out the information based on their personal observation to jot down the information in order to comply with Civil Rights, Equal Employment and Affirmative Action reporting regarding the workforce at the project.

 

The person who is filling out the information at the trailer will complete the bottom part of the application and keep that stub for inclusion in reports.  The top part of the application will be made accessible without the ethnic or sex information to the contractor who will employ the person.

 



 

All letters sent out for the above named referral sources must be maintained ready for inspection.  Upon reasonable notice by authorized representatives the contractor/subcontractor is to produce the records.

 

Walk-Ins/Referral Records:

 

The contractor/subcontractor must also maintain a current file names, addresses and telephone numbers of each minority and female off-the-street applicant and source, or community organization and the actions taken with respect to each individual.  If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the contractor by the union or if, referred was not employed by the contractor, this shall be documented in the file with the reasons, along with actions the contractor may have taken.

 

Current Applicant File

 

The Contractor must also maintain a current file of names, addresses and telephone numbers of each minority and female off-the-street applicant source, or community organization and the actions taken with respect to each individual.  If such individual was sent to the union hiring hall for referral and was not referred back to the contractor by the union or if, the person referred, was not employed by the contractor, shall be documented in the file with the reasons, along with other actions the contractor may have taken.

 

Union Caused Impediments

 

The contractor must provide immediate written notification to DEGA when the union or unions with which the contractor has collective bargaining agreements fails to return thereferral to the contractor of a minority group person or woman sent by the contractor, or when the contractor has other information that the union referral process impeded the contractor’s efforts to meet its obligations.  The contractor must have copies of letters to unions, responses from unions, minutes of meetings, etc. relating to the claim that the union is impeding the contractor’s efforts to comply.  In addition, the contractor must have copies of letters sent to DEGA to verify its claim that the union is impeding the contractor’s efforts to comply.

 

Neither the provisions of any collective bargaining agreement, nor the failure by a union with whom the Contractor has a collective bargaining agreement, to refer either minorities or women shall excuse the contractor’s obligations under these specifications, Executive Order 12246, or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto

I.              INTRODUCTION

 

Owner has implemented an Owner Controlled Insurance Program (OCIP) for the construction of this project.  Certain insurance coverages are being provided for the term of your contract.  This manual details the coverages provided under the OCIP, the steps necessary to enroll, and the procedures in the event of a claim.

 

To enroll in the program, the application in this manual must be completely filled out and returned to Construction Insurance Partners along the required certificate of insurance within 10 business days after notification of winning bid by the Owner or General Contractor.

 

Since your subcontractors will also be covered by the OCIP while performing work at the project site, it is mandatory that you provide a list of all subcontractors to the General Contractor.  Once identified, your subcontractors will receive a copy of this manual.

II.            OCIP – “Exhibit C”-Replacement Contract Language

 

Unless specifically noted, the provisions set forth below in this insurance exhibit replace the requirements contemplated by Forest City Enterprises, Inc. (Owner) standard form agreement.  Nothing in these provisions modifies the indemnification requirements in your agreement.  The following Article 5, Exhibit C will constitute the insurance provisions of the Contract Documents for this Project:

 

ARTICLE 5 – Insurance

 

5.1                                                                               Owner’s Controlled Insurance Program

 

5.1.1                                                In accordance with the Owner Controlled Insurance Program (“OCIP”) being implemented by the Owner on this Project, the Owner has purchased and will provide to the Contractor, its Subcontractors, and all tiers of Sub-subcontractors insurance as set forth below, for claims which may arise out of, or result from work performed by them under this Contract, for which they may be legally liable.  All bidders are required to submit their bid(s) with their insurance costs INCLUDED for this Project.  The winning bidder(s) and all tiers of their subcontractors will be required to identify their cost(s) to provide Workers’ Compensation, General Liability and Excess Liability for this Project.  The OCIP enrollment forms (outlined in this Contractors Manual) must be completed and returned within 10 business days by the Contractor, its Subcontractor and Sub-subcontractors after they have been awarded a contract.  Please note that each party must also include a copy of their Workers’ Compensation Experience Modification Worksheet, along with a copy of the Policy Declarations Page(s) from their Workers’ Compensation General Liability and Excess Liability policies.  The contract award will then be reduced by the costs identified by the winning bidder(s) and this total will be identified as a withhold amount.  At the conclusion of the contract, an audit will be performed and this withheld amount will be adjusted based upon actual payrolls incurred on the project site and work performed including change orders.  Each enrolled Contractor (any tier) will provide documentation as follows: Declarations or information page, Rating page(s), Verification of Experience Modification for Workers’ Compensation and a Minimum of 3 years Loss History for Contractors (any tier) that participate in self-insured, large deductible or retrospective rated insurance programs.  If a Contractor is participating in a retained loss program of this type(s), an insurance credit will be developed using the contactors actual loss history during the requested time period and program fixed costs (e.g. Excess Insurance premiums, Claims Administration charges and Claim Development factors, etc.).  Loss History calculations will be based upon a Contractor’s experience outside of this program provided by the Owner.  The final adjustment will be addressed with a change order at the conclusion of the Project.  All insurance credits will be adjusted to reflect any change in the Contractor’s (any tier) insurance costs (higher or lower) that occur throughout their involvement in this project.  In the event that a contractor overstates their insurance estimate, the Contractor will be credited accordingly.

 

The Owner reserves the right to elect the alternative of not implementing the Owner Controlled Insurance Program at any time.

.4                                       Claims for damages because of bodily injury, sickness, or death of any person other than the Contractor’s employees.

5.1.2                                                The amount and type of coverage to be provided by the Owner under its OCIP program for the types of claims set forth in Subparagraph 5.1.1 above is as follows:

 

.1                                       Statutory Workers’ Compensation and Employer’s Liability with limits of $1,000,000 Bodily Injury by Accident, $1,000,000 Bodily Injury by Disease and $1,000,000 Policy Limit by Disease.  Workers’ Compensation insurance covers all Contractor, Subcontractor, and Sub-subcontractor employees whose regular duties include performing work at the Project Site.

 

.2                                       Commercial General Liability Insurance (excludes Automobile Liability).  This policy includes Completed Operations Coverage for a period of 5 years after acceptance of the work by Owner with a limit of liability of $2,000,000 each occurrence/$5,000,000 general aggregate for Bodily Injury/Property Damage.  No Automobile Liability insurance will be included and shall be provided for by the appropriate contractor (of any tier).  This insurance applies to the operations of all insured parties at the Project site, including any work site set up by the Owner for use by an insured party exclusively for the storage of material or equipment, or for fabrication of material to be used at the Project site.  The limits of liability apply collectively to all insured parties under the policy.

 

.3                                       Excess Insurance.  Excess liability insurance is provided, insuring the Owner, Contractor, Subcontractors, and all tiers of Sub-subcontractors working on the Project.  This insurance will cover only operations at the Project site and will provide excess coverage over the limits of coverage described in .1 and .2 above.  No Automobile Liability insurance will be included.  Coverage (excess of $2,000,000 per occurrence / $5,000,000 aggregate) will apply collectively to all insured parties on all covered projects with a single set of limits not less than $100,000,000 each Occurrence/Aggregate excess of the primary.

5.1.4                                                                        Each Contractor participating in the OCIP will be issued an individual Worker’s Compensation policy.  Certificates of Insurance will be issued for the coverages of Commercial General Liability and Excess Liability that will evidence the coverages furnished by the Owner.  These shall be filed with the Contractor prior to commencement of the Work.  Both the Worker’s Compensation Policy and the Commercial General Liability and Excess Liability certificates shall contain a provision that coverage as afforded under the policies will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days prior written notice has been given to the Contractor.

 

5.2                                                                               Contractor’s Insurance

5.4.3                                                                        A loss insured under the Owner’s Builder’s Risk insurance shall be adjusted by the Owner as fiduciary and made payable to the Owner as fiduciary for the insureds subject to any applicable morgagee clause and of Subparagraph 5.4.10.  The Contractor shall pay Subcontractors their just shares of insurance receipts received by the Contractor, and

VIII.        CONTRACTOR SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

 

The Owner reserves the right to adopt the safety plan of the General Contractor.  Please refer to the Contract Provisions for the required Safety Procedures titled, “AMEC CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, INC., Corporate Safety Policy and Procedure” attached as Exhibit S of your Contract Document.  The Contractor’s safety policies, procedures and codes of practice must be in compliance with current federal, state and local occupational health and safety standards.  Some sections may exceed the minimum standard.  The importance that safety awareness has in our corporate philosophy cannot be understated. Our approach is simple; substandard conditions and substandard practices will not be tolerated.  The following outline is a sample of the minimum requirements expected to be followed by the Contractor (any tier).

 

Safety Programs

 

·                  Each contractor or subcontractor who has 50 or more employees on-site at any one time will be required to provide a full-time on-site safety representative.

 

·                  Each contractor must develop and submit a written safe work procedure that identifies the hazards of their work and the equipment/methods that will beused to eliminate or control them prior to starting their scope of work.  In addition, the name of the “Competent Person” as described in the OSHA Construction Standard 29CFR 1926 must be specified.

 

·                  All contractor and subcontractor employees must receive the “Site Safety Orientation” prior to starting work. AMEC’s Site Safety Manager will provide this to the Contractor Superintendent prior to said contractor beginning any work on site.  It will then become the Contractors responsibility to ensure that each of their employees have received same prior to starting work.  This will be monitored through the use of “Hard Hat Stickers”.

 

·                  General Contractor will be provided with a copy of all programs.

 

·                  Each contractor will maintain on-site, a fully functional “Hazard Communication/Employer Right-to-Know Program.  A copy will be provided for General Contractor

 

·                  Each contractor’s safety activities will be audited based on requirements of the safety program.  OSHA standards will be the minimum acceptable site standards.

 

·                  Subcontractors or sub-subcontractors who may not have a written safety program may elect to fall under AMEC’s safety program.  Should that option be used, each sub or sub-tier is required to submit a letter to AMEC indicating it will use that option, that he has a copy of the program and is familiar with the safety requirements under that program and intends to comply with it.

 

31



 

·                  Straight adoption of these programs will not be an acceptable option.  Each contractor’s safety program must be tailored by that contractor to reflect the specific exposures encountered by its tradesmen.  Construction Insurance Partners and St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company will offer assistance in this area as requested.

 

·                  All contractors should submit their safety programs to the General Contractor before they begin work.

 

·                  Basic personal protective equipment consists of safety glasses with side shields an ANSI approved hard-hat, durable work shoes or boots, long pants and tee-shirt with sleeves as the minimum.  A hard hat, safety glasses with side shields and proper footwear must be worn at all time while on the project.  Hearing protection, dust masks or respirators shall be worn where hazards to the ears or respiratory tract exists.  Training on the proper use and limitations of respiratory equipment will be provided to any worker using such equipment.

 

·                  A strict 100% fall protection policy shall be adhered to where any worker is exposed to a hazard of falling six (6) feet or more or when working over dangerous equipment. (NOTE: The only exception to this rule will be for employees engaged in structural steel erection.  These individuals will follow the guidelines of 29CFR 1926 subpart-R)

 

·                  Prior to removing guardrails, temporary or permanent floor covers, grating or other barriers designed for fall protection, workers will be provided with fall protection as explained in sub (b) above.  Guardrails and protective floor coverings shall not be left open and unattended for any period or for any reason.  Upon completion of the task or activity, the guardrail or covering must be replaced in a securely fastened state.  All floor covers must be legibly marked as “hole” or “opening”.

 

·                  Documentation shall be submitted to AMEC stating the each subcontractor supervisor has been trained to administer first aid and CPR

 

·                  Each contractor and subcontractor supervisor will have attended the “OSHA 10 Hour Construction Outreach Training Program” as evidenced by the appropriate documentation.  If the supervisors have not received said training, it will be provided at “no cost” to the contractor.  However, when the training is scheduled, the contractor MUST make supervisors available for the classes.  (Note: Every effort will be made to schedule classes during hours that will not impact the ongoing work)

 

32



 

·                  A “No Drug or Alcohol Policy” will be enforced by all contractors’ and sub contractors’.  This policy restricts certain items and substances from being brought on Company premises, prohibits all employees and others working on Company premises from reporting for work or from working with detectable levels of illegal or non-prescribed drugs and other substances.  Post accident drug testing will be required for all personnel working on site.

 

Safety Committee

 

·                  Each prime and those major subcontractors selected by General Contractor will appoint a Safety Coordinator.

 

·                  Safety Coordinators will be required to attend a Safety Training Session by Construction Insurance Partners and St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company as requested.

 

·                  The Safety Coordinators will form the Safety Committee.

 

·                  Safety Committee Meetings will be held as called by General Contractor.  These meetings will usually occur once each month.  Attendance by Safety Coordinators is mandatory.

 

·                  Safety Coordinators will be required to accompany Construction Insurance Partners and/or St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company on safety tours of the job site for the purpose of hazard recognition.

 

·                  Superintendents/supervisors may be permitted to act as Safety Coordinators.

 

33



 

[DRAFT]

 

Accident Investigations

 

·                  Each contractor and subcontractor is required to conduct and submit written accident investigations report(s) to St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company and the General Contractor within 24 hours after an incident occurs.

 

·                  St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company and/or Construction Insurance Partners representatives will make accident investigation forms available for any contractor who does not currently have them.

 

·                  Construction Insurance Partners and/or St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company representatives will review all accident investigation reports for quality.

 

Modified Duty Program

 

·                  The purpose of a Modified Duty Program is to get the occupationally injured employee back to work as safely and quickly as possible without causing further harm or injury.  The keys to a successful program are 1) commitment on the part of the contractor to be creative and flexible in assigning work and 2) the willingness on the part of the employee to attempt the modified duty offered.  Each contractor and subcontractor will work with the OCIP Administration Team in identifying modified duty work, document that the modified work to be offered is within the physical limitations outlined by the treating physician and coordinate the return of the injured employee back into the work place.

 

Safety Meetings

 

·                  Each contractor, subcontractor and sub-subcontractor is required to conduct safety meetings at the job site as directed by its established safety program.

 

·                  At a minimum, Safety Meeting are required weekly.

 

·                  A supply of safety talk topics will be maintained in the Construction Office for those companies who wish access to additional topics.

 

·                  Joint safety meetings may be conducted by or with the prime and/or other subs.

 

·                  The resulting safety meeting report must clearly identify each employee who attended and be listed - by contractor, subcontractor or sub-sub.

 

·                  All safety meeting reports should be forwarded to Construction Insurance Partners and/or St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company for a review of quality and timeliness.  The results of this review will be submitted to General Contractor for their action.

 

34



 

[DRAFT]

 

Self-Inspections

 

·                  Each prime and subcontractor must conduct job-site inspections on a regular basis. While these inspections may conform to the requirements of the contractor’s own safety program, they are subject to minimum standards established for the job.

 

·                  Joint inspections or inspections conducted by a prime contractor for a sub must be identified as such. Documentation of these inspections must clearly identify the name of the person who did the inspection and each of the contractors, subcontractors, and sub-sub for whom the inspection was made and any safety recommendations that resulted from the inspection.

 

·                  Inspection follow-up will be performed by each contractor to ensure compliance with recommendations.

 

·                  The quality of inspections will be audited by Construction Insurance Partners and St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company loss control personnel and results of those audits provided to General Contractor for their action.

 

Job Surveys

 

·                  St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company and/or Construction Insurance Partner’s safety representatives will conduct job-site safety surveys monthly, in the company of the members of the Safety Committee for the purpose of hazard recognition.

 

·                  Suggestions and recommendations resulting from those surveys will be discussed with contractor representatives at the time of the survey. Recommendations and suggestions will also be discussed during the regular monthly Safety Committee Meetings.

 

·                  The findings will be submitted in the loss prevention report directed to General Contractor for their action.

 

Record-Keeping and Files

 

IF IT IS NOT RECORDED IN THE PROJECT’S CONSTRUCTION OFFICE, IT HAS NOT BEEN COMPLETED!

 

Documentation is required in the contractor’s safety file located in the General Contractor construction office. Representatives of St. Paul Mercury Insurance Company and Construction Insurance Partners will review safety program documentation.

·                  Job-site safety meeting reports

 

·                  Accident investigations - In order for the Company to investigate all accidents, the subcontractor must immediately notify the Company and submit an accident report within three (3) working days of the accident.

36



 

[DRAFT]

Construction Manager shall document these additional costs, if any, no later than March 15, 2004, or such costs shall be waived by Construction Manager.

 

2.  The GMP is based on some bids that Construction Manager has solicited, coordinated, and negotiated.

GUARANTEE OF PERFORMANCE

 

THIS GUARANTEE OF PERFORMANCE (“Guarantee”) is made and entered into as of the 5 February 2004, by AMEC p.l.c. (“Guarantor”) for the benefit of The New York Times Building, LLC and its successors and assigns (collectively “Beneficiary”).

 

WHEREAS, Beneficiary has entered into that certain Construction Management Agreement dated as of 22 January 2004 (“the Agreement”) by and between Beneficiary as Owner, and AMEC Construction Management, Inc. (“AMEC CM”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor, for the construction of a building of approximately 1,540,000 gross square feet on a site located on Eighth Avenue between 40th and 41st Street in New York, NY (“the Project”), which Agreement is by reference made a part hereof as though set forth in full.

 

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of Beneficiary’s entering into the Agreement with AMEC CM:

 

1.                                       Guarantor hereby guarantees to Beneficiary that AMEC CM shall promptly, faithfully and fully complete the Project and the Agreement in accordance with its terms and conditions.

 

2.                                       The Guarantee shall be a continuing guarantee and is to be irrevocable and to remain in full force and effect as long as AMEC CM or its successors or assigns shall be obligated to Beneficiary under the terms of or as a consequence of the Agreement, subject to Section 3.

 

3.                                       This Guarantee shall be effective and binding on Guarantor as stated herein, notwithstanding any bankruptcy, rejection of Agreement in bankruptcy, insolvency or other legal disability (whether voluntary or involuntary) of AMEC CM or any of its successors or assigns; the judgment of any court or the award of any arbitration panel having jurisdiction over AMEC CM or any of its successors or assigns; any limitation or modification of the liability of AMEC CM pursuant to the operation of any present or future federal or state statute or rule with respect to bankruptcy, insolvency or similar statutes; the dissolution of AMEC CM; and/or any modification of the Agreement agreed to by Beneficiary and AMEC CM.

 

4.                                       If AMEC CM fully performs the Agreement, Guarantor shall have no obligation under this Guarantee.

 

5.                                       If AMEC CM fails to perform under the Agreement, and the default has not yet been: (1) remedied by AMEC CM; or (2) waived in writing by Beneficiary, then Guarantor’s obligation under this Guarantee shall arise after:

 

5.1                                 Beneficiary has sent a written notice (“First Notice”) to AMEC CM and Guarantor, at the addresses described in Section 11, stating that Beneficiary believes AMEC CM has failed to perform in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement (an “AMEC CM Default”), and Beneficiary has made reasonable efforts to arrange a conference with AMEC CM and Guarantor, to be held not later than twenty (20) days after the date of the First Notice, to discuss a plan for curing the AMEC CM Default. If Beneficiary, AMEC CM and Guarantor agree upon a plan at such conference, AMEC CM shall be allowed a reasonable time to cure the AMEC CM Default in a manner satisfactory to Beneficiary; provided, however, that no agreement on the part of Beneficiary or any attempt by AMEC CM to cure or commence a cure of the AMEC CM Default shall constitute a waiver of Beneficiary’s right to subsequently terminate AMEC CM for default; and

 

5.2                                 Beneficiary has declared an AMEC CM Default under Section 5.1, and, if the AMEC CM Default has not been cured, formally terminated AMEC CM’s right to

 

1



 

complete the Agreement. Such a formal termination shall not be declared earlier than twenty (20) days after the First Notice as set forth in Section 5.1; and

 

5.3                                 Beneficiary has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract Price (as defined in Section 5.4) to Guarantor, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, or directly to a contractor selected by Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.3 to perform the balance of work under the Agreement in accordance with its terms.

 

5.4                                 For the purposes of this Guarantee, the phrase “the Balance of the Contract Price” shall mean the total amount payable by Beneficiary to AMEC CM under the Agreement after all proper adjustments have been made, including: (1) the deduction of all payments previously made by Beneficiary to AMEC CM for work properly performed; (2) the deduction of Additional Costs (as defined in Section 5.5) incurred by Beneficiary as a result of the AMEC CM Default; and (3) the addition of any insurance proceeds or other amounts received by Beneficiary in settlement of insurance or other claims to which AMEC CM would otherwise be entitled.

 

5.5                                 For the purposes of this Guarantee, the phrase “Additional Costs” shall mean:

 

5.5.1                        Any additional legal and/or design professional fees resulting from the AMEC CM Default, and/or from the failure of Guarantor to act as set forth in Sections 6.1 through 6.4, and/or from the denial of liability by Guarantor as set forth in Section 6.5 if such denial is found to be invalid; and

 

5.5.2                        Direct damages incurred by Beneficiary by the delayed performance or non-performance of AMEC CM without regard to any additional cure period provided to Guarantor herein; provided, however, that Guarantor shall in no event be liable, in contract, tort or otherwise (including negligence, warranty, indemnity and strict liability), for any special, indirect or consequential damages, including specifically, but without limitation, loss of profits or revenue, loss of full or partial use of any equipment or facility, costs of capital, loss of goodwill, claims of customers, governmental entities or other third parties, or similar damages.

 

6.                                       When Beneficiary has satisfied the conditions of Section 5, Guarantor shall promptly and at Guarantor’s expense take one of the following actions:

 

6.1                                 Take such measures as are necessary to enable and cause AMEC CM to perform and complete the Agreement; and pay to Beneficiary the Additional Costs described in Section 5.5; or

 

6.2                                 Undertake to complete performance of the Agreement itself, through its agents and/or independent subcontractors acceptable to Beneficiary; and pay to Beneficiary the Additional Costs described in Section 5.5; or

 

6.3                                 Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from qualified contractors, acceptable to Beneficiary, for performance and completion of the Agreement; arrange for a contract, consistent with the terms of the Agreement, to be prepared for execution by Beneficiary and the contractor selected by Guarantor with Beneficiary’s concurrence; and pay to Beneficiary the Additional Costs described in Section 5.5 in excess of the Balance of the Contract Price incurred by Beneficiary resulting from the AMEC CM Default; or

 

6.4                                 Waive its rights to: (1) have AMEC CM perform and complete the Agreement; (2) arrange for completion through Guarantor’s agent or independent subcontractors;

 

2



 

or (3) obtain a new contractor to complete the Agreement with reasonable promptness under the circumstances. Upon receipt of cost information from Beneficiary, promptly tender partial payments therefore to Beneficiary.  After investigation, determine the costs to complete the Project in excess of the Balance of the Contract Price and the Additional Costs for which Guarantor is liable to Beneficiary and, promptly tender payment therefore to Beneficiary. Notwithstanding acceptance of such payment, Beneficiary may dispute the amount of the payment; or

 

6.5                                 Deny liability, in whole or in part, and notify Beneficiary citing reasons therefor.

 

7.                                       If Guarantor does not proceed as provided in Section 6 with reasonable promptness, Guarantor shall be deemed to be in default of this Guarantee twenty (20) days after receipt of an additional notice (“Second Notice”) from Beneficiary demanding that Guarantor perform its obligations under this Guarantee, and Beneficiary shall thereafter be entitled to enforce this Guarantee by using any legal remedy available to Beneficiary. If Guarantor has denied liability as set forth in Section 6.5, in whole or in part, then Beneficiary shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to Beneficiary without the requirement for a Second Notice.

 

8.                                       After Beneficiary has terminated AMEC CM’s right to complete the Agreement, and if Guarantor elects to act under Sections 6.1, 6.2 or 6.3 above, then the responsibilities of Guarantor to Beneficiary shall not be greater than those of AMEC CM to Beneficiary under the Agreement, and the responsibilities of Beneficiary to Guarantor shall not be greater than those of Beneficiary to AMEC CM under the Agreement.

 

9.                                       Guarantor shall not be liable to Beneficiary for obligations of AMEC CM that are unrelated to the Project covered by the Agreement, and the Balance of the Contract Price shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such unrelated obligations. No right of action shall accrue on this Guarantee to any person or entity other than Beneficiary, its successors, assigns and legal representatives.

 

10.                                 Any proceeding under this Guarantee may only be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York, and Guarantor hereby submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of New York and waives any objection based on venue or forum non convenience or objection to New York choice of law. Any such action shall be instituted within two (2) years after Guarantor refuses or fails to perform its obligations under this Guarantee. If the provisions of this Section are void or prohibited by law, the applicable limitation period shall be the minimum period of limitation available to guarantors as a defense in the State of New York.

 

11.                                 Notices to Guarantor, Beneficiary, and AMEC CM shall be faxed, mailed or hand-delivered to the following addresses:
