Model Language to Obtain the Offerer Disclosure of Prior Non-Responsibility Determinations

Note: Government Entities may wish to consider integrating this language in their existing forms. Background: New York State Finance Law §139-k(2) obligates a Governmental Entity to obtain specific information regarding prior non-responsibility determinations with respect to State Finance Law §139-j. This information must be collected in addition to the information that is separately obtained pursuant to State Finance Law §163(9). In accordance with State Finance Law §139-k, an Offerer must be asked to disclose whether there has been a finding of non-responsibility made within the previous four (4) years by any Governmental Entity due to: (a) a violation of State Finance Law §139-j or (b) the intentional provision of false or incomplete information to a Governmental Entity. The terms “Offerer” and “Governmental Entity” are defined in State Finance Law § 139-k(1). State Finance Law §139-j sets forth detailed requirements about the restrictions on Contacts during the procurement process. A violation of State Finance Law §139-j includes, but is not limited to, an impermissible Contact during the restricted period (for example, contacting a person or entity other than the designated contact person, when such Contact does not fall within one of the exemptions). As part of its responsibility determination, State Finance Law §139-k(3) mandates consideration of whether an Offerer fails to timely disclose accurate or complete information regarding the above non-responsibility determination. In accordance with law, no Procurement Contract shall be awarded to any Offerer that fails to timely disclose accurate or complete information under this section, unless a finding is made that the award of the Procurement Contract to the Offerer is necessary to protect public property or public health safety, and that the Offerer is the only source capable of supplying the required Article of Procurement within the necessary timeframe. See State Finance Law §§139-j (10)(b) and 139-k(3). Instructions: A Governmental Entity must include a disclosure request regarding prior non-responsibility determinations in accordance with State Finance Law §139-k in its solicitation of proposals or bid documents or specifications or contract documents, as applicable, for procurement contracts. The attached form is to be completed and submitted by the individual or entity seeking to enter into a Procurement Contract. It shall be submitted to the Governmental Entity conducting the Governmental Procurement. As an alternative to this form, the Governmental Entity may elect to incorporate this disclosure question into its procurement questionnaire, such as the New York State Standard Vendor Responsibility Questionnaire set out at http://www.ogs.state.ny.us/procurecounc/pdfdoc/BestPractice.pdf.

§ 2.1.1 Subcontractor expressly assumes to Contractor all of the obligations and responsibilities for the performance of this Subcontract as the Contractor assumes toward the Owner respecting performance of the Prime Contract (all documents that comprise the Owner-Contractor Agreement). Subcontractor agrees that Contractor shall have, together with all other rights it may have under other terms of this Subcontract or otherwise, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights and remedies against Subcontractor respecting the performance of this Subcontract that the Owner has against Contractor respecting the performance of the Prime Contract. This includes, without limitation, any exculpatory and indemnity provisions; any duty, including any absolute duty, to protect the Work; any exclusions or limitations upon Claims for damages for delay; any limitations of time, notice requirements, procedures or conditions precedent respecting Claims or requests of any kind; suspension of work; termination of the Contract; any requirements for documentation, substantiation, or certification of Claims or requests of any kind; any warranties or guarantees including specific guarantee retainage provisions; and any dispute resolution provisions, including forum, jurisdiction and venue provisions. Any time provisions imposed upon the Contractor under the Prime Contract or by law shall be binding upon the Subcontractor. Subcontractor must in each case provide Contractor with notice in time to allow the Contractor reasonable opportunity to evaluate and timely act upon any Claim or position asserted by Subcontractor. Subcontractor represents that it is fully familiar with the terms and conditions of the Prime Contract concerning all of the foregoing. The Subcontract, the Prime Contract and the other Contract Documents are intended to supplement and complement each other and shall, where possible, be thus interpreted. If, however, any provision of the Subcontract conflicts with a provision of the Prime Contract or any of the other Contract Documents, the provision imposing the more stringent or restrictive responsibility, obligation or limitation on Subcontractor shall govern. § 2.1.2 The Prime Contract and all documents incorporated by reference therein shall continue to be a Contract Document and, as such, is incorporated herein and made a part hereof, and Subcontractor shall continue to be bound by the Prime Contract, notwithstanding any termination, expiration or cancellation of the Prime Contract, or the assignment or reassignment of the Prime Contract by Construction Manager or Owner. The intent of the Contract Documents is to include all items necessary for the proper and timely execution and completion of the Work. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by one shall be as binding as if required by all; performance by Subcontractor shall be required if and to the extent consistent with the Contract Documents and inferable from them as being necessary to produce the intended results. In the event of any conflict or discrepancy between or among different versions of the same Contract Document, the most recently issued version takes precedence over previous versions. In the event of any conflict or discrepancy between provisions in separate Contract Documents, the provision imposing the more stringent or restrictive responsibility, obligation or limitation on Subcontractor shall govern. If the conflict or discrepancy between or among separate Contract Documents pertains to (i) quantity, then the Contract Document requiring the greater quantity shall be deemed to be more stringent, (ii) quality, then the Contract Document requiring the better quality shall be deemed to be more stringent, or (iii) cost, then the Contract Document requiring the greater cost shall be deemed to be more stringent. § 2.1.3 The Specifications and the Drawings shall be equal in authority and priority; provided, however, that in the event of conflict, (i) the Drawings shall govern as to the quantity and location, and (ii) the Specifications shall govern as to quality and performance. § 2.1.4 For all purposes, the terms “Contractor” and “Construction Manager” shall be interchangeable and at all times shall refer to F.J. Sciame Construction Co., Inc. For all purposes of each Rider to this Agreement, the term “Subcontractor” shall refer to the Subcontractor identified on page 1 of this Agreement. ARTICLE 3 CONTRACTOR § 3.1 SERVICES PROVIDED BY THE CONTRACTOR § 3.1.1 The Contractor shall cooperate with the Subcontractor in scheduling and performing the Contractor’s Work to avoid conflicts or interference in the Subcontractor’s Work and shall expedite written responses to submittals made by the Subcontractor in accordance with Section 4.1 and Article 5. Promptly after execution of this Agreement, the Contractor shall provide the Subcontractor copies of the Contractor’s construction schedule and schedule of submittals, together with such additional scheduling details as will enable the Subcontractor to plan and perform the Subcontractor’s Work properly. The Contractor shall promptly notify the Subcontractor of subsequent changes in the construction and submittal schedules and additional scheduling details. § 3.1.2 The Contractor shall provide suitable areas for storage of the Subcontractor’s materials and equipment during the course of the Work.

Such information shall include a correct statement of the record legal title to the property, usually referred to as the site, on which the Project is located and the Owner’s interest therein. § 3.2.6 If the Contractor asserts or defends a claim against the Owner that relates to the Work of the Subcontractor, the Contractor shall promptly make available to the Subcontractor all information relating to the portion of the claim that relates to the Work of the Subcontractor. § 3.3 CLAIMS BY THE CONTRACTOR § 3.3.1 Liquidated damages for delay, if provided for in this Agreement, shall be assessed against the Subcontractor only to the extent caused by the Subcontractor or any person or entity for whose acts the Subcontractor may be liable, and in no case for delays or causes arising outside the scope of this Subcontract. § 3.3.2 The Contractor’s claims for the costs of services or materials provided due to the Subcontractor’s failure to execute the Work shall require

.1 seven days’ written notice prior to the Contractor’s providing services or materials, except in an emergency; and

.2 written compilations to the Subcontractor of services and materials provided by the Contractor and charges for such services and materials no later than the fifteenth day of the month following the Contractor’s providing such services or materials.

§ 3.4 CONTRACTOR’S REMEDIES § 3.4.1 SUBCONTRACTOR’S FAILURE TO PERFORM WORK. If the Subcontractor defaults under, or fails to carry out the Work in accordance with, the Contract Documents and fails within a five (5) day period after receipt of written notice from Contractor to commence and continue correction of such default or failure with diligence and promptness, the Contractor may, without prejudice to any other remedies the Contractor may have, carry out the Work or otherwise cure the default. In such case an appropriate Construction Change Directive or Change Order shall be issued deducting from payments then or thereafter due the Subcontractor all costs incurred by the Contractor in carrying out the Work or curing the default. If payments then or thereafter due the Subcontractor are not sufficient to cover such amounts, the Subcontractor shall pay upon demand the difference to Contractor. The right of the Contractor to stop the Work pursuant to this §3.4.1 shall not give rise to any duty on the part of the Contractor to exercise this right for the benefit of the Subcontractor or any other person or entity, nor are the rights enumerated in this §3.4.1 the exclusive remedies available to Contractor. ARTICLE 4 SUBCONTRACTOR § 4.1 EXECUTION AND PROGRESS OF THE WORK § 4.1.1 For all Work the Subcontractor intends to subcontract, the Subcontractor shall enter into written agreements with Sub-subcontractors performing portions of the Work of this Subcontract by which the Subcontractor and the

§ 4.3.3 If reasonable precautions will be inadequate to prevent foreseeable bodily injury or death to persons resulting from a hazardous material or substance, including but not limited to asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), encountered on the site by the Subcontractor, the Subcontractor shall, upon recognizing the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and promptly report the condition to the Contractor in writing.

Subcontractor is responsible for maintaining its work areas such that they are clean, orderly and free from hazards and debris. Contractor may upon 24 hours notice clean up Subcontractor’s work site(s) and charge the direct and indirect costs thereof to Subcontractor or in the event it is difficult to determine whose debris, etc., is being removed, Contractor shall make a reasonable allocation of the direct and indirect costs among the applicable subcontractors and charge the Subcontractor its reasonable share. Upon completion of the Work, Subcontractor shall remove all its tools, materials, rubbish, debris and other articles from the work site and shall leave its portion of the Work and the area occupied or used by it broom clean. Should it fail to take prompt action to this end, the Owner or Contractor (at its option and without waiver of such other rights as it may have) may on ten (10) days’ notice treat them as abandoned property and shall charge Subcontractor the costs for removal of Subcontractor’s tools, materials, rubbish, debris and other articles of property. § 4.4.2 As provided under Section 3.3.2, if the Subcontractor fails to clean up as provided in the Subcontract Documents, the Contractor may charge the Subcontractor for the Subcontractor’s appropriate share of cleanup costs. § 4.5 WARRANTY The Subcontractor warrants to the Owner, Architect, and Contractor that materials and equipment furnished under this Subcontract will be of good quality and new unless the Subcontract Documents require or permit otherwise.

underlying claim, in which case indemnification will be limited to any liability imposed over and above that percentage attributable to actual fault whether by statute, by operation of law, or otherwise. Where partial indemnity is provided hereunder, costs, professional fees, attorneys’ fees, expenses and disbursements shall be indemnified on a pro rata basis.

(b) In claims against any Indemnitee by an employee of the Subcontractor, a sub-subcontractor, anyone directly or indirectly employed by them or anyone for whose acts they may be liable, the indemnification obligation under subparagraph (a) shall not be limited by a limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for the Subcontractor or a sub-subcontractor under workers’ compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.

(c) The Subcontractor shall procure commercial general liability insurance coverage in accordance with the insurance requirements of this Subcontract to provide defense and indemnification to Sciame, Owner and the other Indemnitees (who shall be designated as additional insureds under the pertinent policy or policies of insurance on a primary and non-contributory basis pursuant to Article 13) in the event of such claims or suits; provided, however, that the indemnification obligation under subparagraph (a) shall exist whether or not the Subcontractor has obtained and/or maintained such insurance coverage. In the event (1) that Subcontractor fails to obtain or maintain the required insurance and/or (2) that any insurance carrier(s) of the Subcontractor fails or refuses (whether due to late notice, purported exclusions from coverage or otherwise) to timely and completely assume, without reservation of rights, the defense and indemnification of Sciame. Owner or any other Indemnitee, then the entirety or any portion of any monies due or to become due to the Subcontractor under this Subcontract or other security acceptable to the respective Indemnitee(s), as shall or may be considered necessary by the respective Indemnitee(s), may be retained by Sciame (or, if the Prime Contract so provides, by Owner) until all such suits or claims shall have been conclusively resolved whether by settlement or other disposition, and evidence to that effect furnished to the reasonable satisfaction of the respective Indemnitee(s). Further, Sciame shall be entitled to deduct the following from any monies due to the Subcontractor (or from any security put up by the Subcontractor): (i) all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in pursuing any claim against Subcontractor and/or Subcontractor’s insurance carrier(s) for defense and/or indemnification; (ii) all deductibles required to be expended by reason of the circumstances described in (1) and/or (2) of this subparagraph; and (iii) any increase in insurance premiums actually incurred or reasonably likely to be incurred by reason of the circumstances described in (1) and/or (2) of this subparagraph.

(d) The Subcontractor shall defend, with counsel acceptable to Sciame, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Sciame, Owner and all other Indemnitees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, from any and all liabilities, damages and expenses to which any or all of them may be subjected by reason of any claim or suit for the alleged infringement of any copyright, trademark, trade dress, patent or any other proprietary right arising out of the use of any product, name, process, formula, invention, work or other tangible or intangible intellectual property of any kind furnished by the Subcontractor or any of its sub-subcontractors or suppliers in the performance of this Subcontract.

(e) For all purposes of this Article, attorneys’ and consultants’ fees, court costs, expenses and disbursements shall be deemed to include those fees, costs, expenses and disbursements incurred in defending any underlying claim and those fees, costs, expenses and disbursements incurred in connection with the enforcement of this indemnity obligation.

(f) The provisions of this Article shall survive expiration or any termination of this Subcontract. § 4.7 SUPERSEDING ARTICLE 35-E OF GENERAL BUSINESS LAW OF STATE OF NEW YORK It is the intention of the parties that, to the extent not prohibited by Article 35-E of the General Business Law of the State of New York, commonly known as the “Prompt Payment Act” (“Prompt Payment Act”), or otherwise expressly provided in the Subcontract, the terms and conditions of the Subcontract shall supersede the provisions of the Prompt Payment Act in their entirety and accordingly, (i) the Prompt Payment Act shall not apply to the Subcontract and (ii) the absence of a provision in the Subcontract covering any matter addressed in the Prompt Payment Act shall not be construed to mean that the parties have agreed that the applicable provision in the Prompt Payment Act shall govern with respect to that matter.

§ 4.8 REMEDIES FOR NONPAYMENT If the Contractor does not pay the Subcontractor through no fault of the Subcontractor undisputed sums properly due hereunder within fourteen days from the time payment should be made as provided in this Agreement, the Subcontractor may, without prejudice to any other available remedies, upon fourteen additional days’ written notice to the Contractor, stop the Work of this Subcontract until payment of such undisputed sums has been received. ARTICLE 5 CHANGES IN THE WORK § 5.1 Contractor, without invalidating the Subcontract, may, at any time order or require changes in Subcontractor’s Work consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions, with the Subcontract Price being adjusted accordingly (“Change Order”). If not otherwise provided for expressly in writing, the provisions of the Prime Contract with respect to pricing, approval and performance of Change Order work or additions, deletions and modifications to the Work shall be applicable to this Subcontract and fully binding upon the Subcontractor. Subcontractor will render bills for any additional work at such times and in such form and quantity as directed by Contractor. For the purpose of checking such bills and any other Claims and determining the correctness of the charges, Subcontractor shall permit Contractor to audit Subcontractor’s books and hereby authorizes Contractor to check directly with the suppliers of labor and materials to confirm the accuracy and correctness of the charges for labor, materials or other items appearing in the Subcontractor’s bill to Contractor. Any modification or change of the Subcontract providing for the omission of work shall be computed, and the value, when so determined, shall be deducted from the Subcontract Price as herein provided. § 5.1.1 For changes in the Prime Contract that have been initiated by the Owner, the Subcontractor shall promptly submit any Claims it may have for the adjustment of price, schedule or other provisions of this Subcontract to the Contractor in writing, and at least ten (10) days before the Contractor must make such claim to Owner as required by the Prime Contract, to allow the Contractor to process such Claims with the Owner within the time and in the manner provided for in the Prime Contract. Contractor shall be liable to Subcontractor for such changes to the same extent, but only to the extent, that the Owner is liable and pays Contractor for the same insofar as it concerns Subcontractor’s work. The mark-up for profit and overhead on all Change Order work ordered by the Owner and performed by the Subcontractor shall be as provided in the Prime Contract. However, if mark-up is not addressed, profit and overhead shall be equally divided between the Contractor and Subcontractor. § 5.1.2 The Subcontractor shall receive no extra compensation of any kind whatsoever, regardless of whether the same was ordered by Contractor or any of its representatives, unless such extra compensation is authorized by order given in writing and signed by the Project Manager of Contractor, or other duly authorized representative of Contractor, or Subcontractor has properly preserved its rights. § 5.1.3 Prior to the issuance of any Change Order, Contractor may require Subcontractor to furnish a detailed itemization showing the difference in value of the work, labor, services, and materials changed by the proposed Change Order. If an agreement as to a monetary allowance or other term in the Change Order cannot be reached, Subcontractor, upon written direction from Contractor, shall perform the Work on a “time and materials” basis or otherwise to the extent, if any, that Contractor is so paid under the Prime Contract, under a reservation that the final adjustment in price shall be reserved until final completion of the Project. The monetary amount for the performance of any such Change Order work shall not exceed the allowances set forth in Subcontractor’s prior detailed itemization. § 5.1.4 The failure of Subcontractor to immediately commence performance of any Change Order when so directed in writing by Contractor, regardless of whether agreement has been reached on the adjustment of the Subcontract Price, shall constitute a material breach of the Subcontract. Subcontractor may reserve its rights to extra compensation, if same has not been agreed upon at the time of Contractor’s direction, by delivering to Contractor written notice of a Claim therefor, pursuant to this §5.1.4 prior to the commencement of any extra work. § 5.1.5 Any extension of time needed by Subcontractor as a result of a proposed alteration, addition or change in its Work shall be provided for in and by such Change Order. There shall be no other monetary or time allowance, direct or indirect, single or cumulative, to Subcontractor other than as specifically provided in such Change Order. § 5.1.6 Where unit prices are stipulated in the Subcontract, all adjustments, whether increases or decreases, shall be made in accordance with said units unless otherwise provided by the Prime Contract. Said units shall be deemed to include all general and administrative expenses, overhead, profit, supervision, extended performance cost factors, and all other direct and indirect expenses.

§ 5.1.7 The issuance of any Change Order and payment thereof, prior to completion and acceptance of the Project, shall not preclude Contractor from questioning the validity thereof and recouping payment therefor, if it is shown the Change Order work was in fact neither extra nor additional work under the terms of the Subcontract. § 5.1.8 No Change Order shall vary or affect the terms, conditions and provisions of the Subcontract unless specifically set forth in the Change Order. § 5.1.9 Unless otherwise agreed in writing signed by Contractor and Subcontractor, if a) Contractor directs Subcontractor to perform any changed work which is not payable to Contractor as extra work by the Owner, and b) Contractor directs Subcontractor to perform said work on a time and materials basis, such work will be payable as follows (unless the provisions of the Prime Contract dictate otherwise, in which event those provisions shall govern): § 5.1.9A Labor:

.1 WAGES: Direct field labor only up to and including the rank of working foreman; .2 PAYROLL TAXES (if applicable): Actual cost. In determining actual costs, the statutory limitations for

FICA, State Unemployment Insurance, and Federal Unemployment Insurance must be taken into account; .3 UNION BENEFITS (if applicable): Actual cost per union agreements; .4 INSURANCE: Actual net additional cost of insurance paid as a result of the extra work. In determining

the actual cost of insurance, the Contractor will be given the benefit of premium discounts, experience modifications, etc. There will be no reimbursement for flat rate policies such as auto insurance, etc. In the event the Owner provides an Owner Controlled Insurance Plan (“OCIP”) further information will be provided to Subcontractor. § 5.1.10 Equipment: Payment for equipment shall be limited to actual working time and limited to the value or rates of equipment used by the Subcontractor of suitable size and capacity required for the work to be performed. In the event the Subcontractor elects to use equipment of greater size, capacity, value or rental value, payment will be made at the rate applicable for suitable equipment. § 5.1.11 The rental rates for equipment shall be as follows:

.1 OWNED: Rental charged shall be as agreed upon between Contractor and Subcontractor but shall in no case exceed the monthly rates in the then-current edition of the Rental Rate Blue Book, as published by Equipment Watch, located at 1735 Technology Drive, San Jose, CA 95110 in use at the commencement of the extra work. Where a piece of equipment used by the Subcontractor is not listed in this publication, the rental rate shall be agreed upon by the Contractor and Subcontractor prior to its use on the work.

.2 LEASED: Invoice cost, provided the Contractor has approved the rates charged in advance.

§ 5.1.12 Material and installed equipment (“Material”): Actual net cost less salvage value. The Contractor will be given the benefit of trade discounts. Material charges must be substantiated by paid vendor’s invoices and/or bills of sale. § 5.1.13 Overhead and profit: Ten Percent (10%) of Labor and Material for overhead and Five Percent (5%) for profit. If agreed to in writing, overhead and profit will be paid on the premium portion of overtime; however, overhead or profit will not be paid on benefits relating to premium time. No overhead or profit will be added for owned or leased equipment. No additional overhead and profit will be paid for work performed by sub- subcontractors, unless otherwise required by the Federal Acquisition Regulations, in which case sub-subcontractor’s overhead and profit shall not exceed 5%.

A claim which will affect or become part of a claim which the Contractor is required to make under the Prime Contract within a specified time period or in a specified manner shall be made in sufficient time to permit the Contractor to satisfy the requirements of the Prime Contract. Such claims shall be received by the Contractor not less than two working days preceding the time by which the Contractor’s claim must be made. Failure of the Subcontractor to make such a timely claim shall bind the Subcontractor to the same consequences as those to which the Contractor is bound.

The Arbitrator shall not have the power to apportion the costs and fees of the arbitration, which shall be borne as incurred; nor shall the Arbitrator have any power to award counsel fees or exemplary damages. ARTICLE 7 SUSPENSION OR ASSIGNMENT OF THE SUBCONTRACT § 7.1 SUSPENSION BY THE CONTRACTOR FOR CONVENIENCE § 7.1.1 The Contractor may, without cause, order the Subcontractor in writing to suspend, delay or interrupt the Work of this Subcontract in whole or in part for such period of time as the Contractor may determine. In the event of suspension ordered by the Contractor, the Subcontractor shall be entitled to an equitable adjustment of the Subcontract Time and Subcontract Sum. § 7.1.2 An adjustment shall be made for increases in the Subcontract Time and Subcontract Sum, including profit on the increased cost of performance, caused by suspension, delay or interruption. No adjustment shall be made to the extent that

.1 performance is, was or would have been so suspended, delayed or interrupted by another cause for which the Subcontractor is responsible; or

.2 an equitable adjustment is made or denied under another provision of this Subcontract. § 7.2 ASSIGNMENT OF THE SUBCONTRACT Subcontractor may not assign this Agreement without the express written consent of Contractor, which consent may be unreasonably withheld. Contractor may assign this Agreement without Subcontractor’s consent. If any such assignment is made or given by Subcontractor, without prior written consent, the same shall be absolutely void and of no effect, and Contractor, in addition to any other rights under this Agreement, shall have the right, at its option, to terminate this Subcontract for default and shall thereafter be under no further obligations to Subcontractor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that Construction Manager shall have the right to assign the Subcontract to Owner or any party designated by Owner, and following any such assignment to Owner or such designee, then Owner or such designee, as the case may be, shall have the right to assign this Subcontract to any other party designated by Owner (each such assignee, a “Subcontract Assignee”), and upon and after any such assignment Subcontractor shall render full performance under the Subcontract to the Subcontract Assignee and the Subcontract Assignee shall succeed to all of Construction Manager’s rights under the Subcontract and shall perform all of Construction Manager’s obligations under the Subcontract arising from and after such assignment. Upon an assignment of the Subcontract to Owner, Subcontractor shall observe and comply with all instruments, requests, requirements, demands or other directives issued or made by the Owner’s project manager on behalf of Owner in connection with the Work or the Subcontract, unless otherwise instructed by Owner. In the event the Subcontract Documents contain a provision pursuant to which the Subcontract is deemed terminated upon a termination of the Prime Contract, whether for convenience or upon default, or entitling Construction Manager to terminate the Subcontract upon any such termination of the Prime Contract, and the Prime Contract is terminated but Subcontractor receives a notice from Owner that an assignment of the Subcontract to Owner has been effectuated, whether before or after any such deemed or exercised termination of the Subcontract, then such deemed or exercised termination of the Subcontract shall be deemed null and void ab initio, and the Subcontract shall remain in full force and effect as so assigned. ARTICLE 8 THE WORK OF THIS SUBCONTRACT The Subcontractor shall execute the following portion of the Work described in the Subcontract Documents, including all labor, materials, equipment, services and other items required to complete such portion of the Work, except to the extent specifically indicated in the Subcontract Documents to be the responsibility of others.

ARTICLE 11 PROGRESS PAYMENTS § 11.1 Progress Payments shall be made to Subcontractor, pursuant to payment applications to be submitted by Subcontractor to Contractor, for the value of Subcontractor’s Work completed during the prior month (“Payment Period”) as estimated by Subcontractor and Contractor using the Schedule of Values, less 10% retainage to be withheld by Contractor until Final Payment is due and payable, conditioned, however, upon the Owner’s approval and payment to Contractor for such Subcontractor’s Work. Upon Subcontractor’s achieving completion of 50% of its Work, as certified by the Architect, and upon written approval by the Owner, which may be withheld in Owner’s sole discretion, the retainage may be reduced to 5%. Such progress payments by the Owner to the Contractor shall be a condition precedent to Subcontractor’s entitlement to progress payments unless the Owner’s failure to make payment is conclusively determined to be for reasons entirely unrelated to the quantity, quality or timeliness of Subcontractor’s Work or its failure to satisfy obligations under this Subcontract. Accordingly, except only as may be provided to the contrary by statute not subject to waiver, Subcontractor hereby assumes the risk of Owner’s nonpayment or delayed progress payments to Contractor for Subcontractor’s Work, without recourse to the Contractor (but such shall not operate as a bar to Subcontractor’s right to serve and file a Notice Under Mechanic’s Lien Law). When the quantities approved by the Owner for payment consist of items of Work on which Subcontractor has performed only a portion of the Work approved for payment, then quantities of Work for which Subcontractor shall receive payment shall be determined by Contractor. Unless otherwise provided by law or the Prime Contract, payment to Subcontractor shall be made not later than thirty (30) days after Contractor receives payment from Owner. Notwithstanding, Contractor shall have the right to withhold any payment if, based upon reasonable evidence, it believes in good faith that Subcontractor cannot and will not complete its Work and that in such event the cost to Contractor to complete same will exceed the unexpended balance of the Subcontract Price and for such other reasons as set forth in Rider B. § 11.2 Upon the partial or entire disapproval by the Contractor of the Subcontractor’s application for payment, the Contractor shall provide written notice to the Subcontractor. When the basis for the disapproval has been remedied, the Subcontractor shall be paid the amounts withheld. « » § 11.3 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION When the Subcontractor’s Work or a designated portion thereof is substantially complete and in accordance with the requirements of the Prime Contract, the Contractor shall, upon application by the Subcontractor, make prompt application for payment for such Work. Within 30 days following issuance by the Architect of the certificate for payment covering such substantially completed Work, the Contractor shall, to the full extent allowed in the Prime Contract, make payment to the Subcontractor, deducting any portion of the funds for the Subcontractor’s Work withheld in accordance with the certificate to cover costs of items to be completed or corrected by the Subcontractor. If the Prime Contract does not allow for a full release of retainage, then such payment shall be an amount which, when added to previous payments to the Subcontractor, will reduce the retainage on the Subcontractor’s substantially completed Work to the same percentage of retainage as that on the Contractor’s Work covered by the certificate. ARTICLE 12 FINAL PAYMENT § 12.1 Final payment by Construction Manager to Subcontractor (including retainage being held under the Subcontract) shall not become due and payable until all of the following express conditions precedent have been satisfied in full: (a) the completion and acceptance of the Work by Construction Manager; (b) provision by Subcontractor of evidence satisfactory to Construction Manager that there are no claims, obligations or liens outstanding or unsatisfied for labor, services, materials, equipment, taxes or other items performed, furnished, or incurred for or in connection with the Work; (c) complete and full satisfaction of all claims, demands and disputes, and all obligations and responsibilities of Subcontractor, arising out of or related to the Subcontract, including those as between Construction Manager and Subcontractor as well as those between Subcontractor and any third party; (d) the full performance by Subcontractor of all its obligations under the Subcontract (in addition to completion of the Work); (e) the receipt by Construction Manager from Subcontractor and each of its principal sub-subcontractors, of a Final affidavit and Release of Claims in such form as Construction Manager or Owner may prescribe; (f) the receipt by Construction Manager of all of Subcontractor’s as-built drawings; (g) the receipt by Construction Manager of all guaranties and warranties required to be delivered by Subcontractor under the Subcontract and the other Contract Documents; (h) the receipt by Construction Manager of all certificates of completion and other certificates, permits, licenses, approvals and authorizations required by any governmental authority in connection with the Work; (i) the receipt by Construction Manager of any consents of Subcontractor’s surety, if any, that may

The acceptance of final payment by Subcontractor shall constitute a full and final release of any and all Claims which Subcontractor has against Contractor except for Subcontractor’s Claims which have been properly preserved and which are in dispute with the Owner and which have not been otherwise waived or resolved. (Insert provisions for earlier final payment to the Subcontractor, if applicable.) « » ARTICLE 13 INSURANCE AND BONDS § 13.1 The Subcontractor shall purchase and maintain insurance of the following types of coverage and limits of liability as will protect the Subcontractor from claims that may arise out of, or result from, the Subcontractor’s operations and completed operations under the Subcontract:

§ 13.2 Coverages, written on an occurrence basis, shall be maintained without interruption from the date of commencement of the Subcontractor’s Work until the date of final payment and termination of any coverage required to be maintained after final payment to the Subcontractor, and, with respect to the Subcontractor’s completed operations coverage, until the expiration of the period for correction of Work or for such other period for maintenance of completed operations coverage as specified in the Prime Contract. § 13.3 Certificates of insurance acceptable to the Contractor shall be filed with the Contractor prior to commencement of the Subcontractor’s Work. These certificates and the insurance policies required by this Article 13 shall contain a provision that coverages 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. If any of the foregoing insurance coverages are required to remain in force after final payment, an additional certificate evidencing continuation of such coverage shall be submitted with the final application for payment as required in Article 12. If any information concerning reduction of coverage is not furnished by the insurer, it shall be furnished by the Subcontractor with reasonable promptness according to the Subcontractor’s information and belief. § 13.4 The Subcontractor shall cause the commercial liability coverage required by the Subcontract Documents to include: (1) the Contractor, the Owner, the Architect and the Architect’s consultants as additional insureds for claims caused in whole or in part by the Subcontractor’s negligent acts or omissions during the Subcontractor’s operations; and (2) the Contractor as an additional insured for claims caused in whole or in part by the Subcontractor’s negligent acts or omissions during the Subcontractor’s completed operations. § 13.5 The Contractor shall furnish to the Subcontractor satisfactory evidence of insurance required of the Contractor under the Prime Contract. § 13.6 The Contractor shall promptly, upon request of the Subcontractor, furnish a copy or permit a copy to be made of any bond covering payment of obligations arising under the Subcontract. § 13.7 Performance Bond and Payment Bond: (If the Subcontractor is to furnish bonds, insert the specific requirements here.)

4.21 Project Labor Agreement:

4.21.1 Subcontractor acknowledges that CUCF intends to direct the Construction Manager to enter into a project labor agreement (“PLA”), as described in New York Labor Law Section 222, and that the Construction Manager has or will enter into a PLA with respect to the Project. Subcontractor agrees that the PLA shall govern the relationship among CUCF, the Construction Manager, Subcontractor and labor with respect to the Work, and, accordingly, Subcontractor shall execute the PLA, when, as and in the form and substance executed by the Construction Manager. Subcontractor executing the PLA is and shall be a condition precedent to the performance of any Work and payment to Subcontractor. Subcontractor shall not perform any Work or be entitled to any payment and Construction Manager shall not be required to make any payment hereunder until and unless Subcontractor shall execute the PLA and deliver executed copies thereof to the Construction Manager. Subcontractor shall require its sub-subcontractors and suppliers of whatever tier to execute the PLA or, if permitted thereunder, a Letter of Assent in the form and substance provided for in the PLA, prior to the performance of any labor or the provision of any services or materials to the Project, and shall also require such sub-subcontractors to include a requirement in any agreement with their respective lower tier subcontractors and suppliers become signatory to and bound by the PLA, either directly or, if permitted under the PLA, by executing a Letter of Assent in the form and substance provided for in the PLA. Subcontractor shall not, under any circumstances, further subcontract any Project Work to a person, firm or corporation that is not or does not agree to become party to the PLA. The PLA, including without limitation the provisions of Article 7 thereof, shall apply to all Work of Subcontractor, including its sub-subcontractors and suppliers of whatever tier, with respect to the Project.

4.21.2 Construction Manager shall be an intended third-party beneficiary of Subcontractor’s obligations under the PLA, all of which are hereby incorporated herein by reference. A breach by Subcontractor of the terms and conditions of the PLA shall be deemed for all purposes a breach of this Agreement, and shall entitle Construction Manager to the remedies set forth herein in addition to any remedies set forth in the PLA, including but not limited to Construction Manager’s rights pursuant to Section 15.16 of this Rider.

4.21.3 Subcontractor agrees, for itself and on behalf of its sub-subcontractors and suppliers of whatever tier, to set aside and pay all benefits due or to become due to any Fund (as defined in the PLA). In the event that Subcontractor shall receive a delinquency notice from any Local or Union pursuant to or in accordance with the PLA, Subcontractor shall promptly forward a copy of such notice to Construction Manager. Subcontractor shall also require its sub-subcontractors and suppliers, of whatever tier, to promptly furnish copies of any such delinquency notice to the Construction Manager. Subcontractor agrees, for itself and for its sub-subcontractors and suppliers, of whatever tier, that in the event of any delinquency in the payment of employee benefits, in accordance with Article 11 of the PLA, Construction Manager shall withhold from any outstanding monies due to Subcontractor such amounts as the Fund or Union claim are due and may retain such amount for the benefit of the Fund upon submission of a Delinquency Notice pursuant to Article 11 of the PLA. Subcontractor further agrees that in such event the Construction Manager may also withhold from any amounts due Subcontractor such additional amounts as Construction Manager, in its sole but reasonable discretion, believes appropriate or necessary to cover all costs, damages, claims or expenses, including attorneys’ fees and related expenses, as may be incurred by Construction Manager and arising from or in connection with such Delinquency Notice.

4.21.4 Subcontractor specifically agrees that if Construction Manager, Subcontractor or any Union (as that term is defined in the PLA) alleges a violation of Section 1 of Article 7 of the PLA, any of them may utilize the expedited procedure set forth in this paragraph 4.21.4 in lieu of, or in addition to, any actions at law or equity that may be brought. A party invoking this procedure shall notify J.J. Pierson or Richard Adelman, who shall alternate (beginning with Arbitrator J.J. Pierson) as Arbitrator under this expedited arbitration procedure. If the Arbitrator next on the list is not available to hear the matter within 24 hours of notice, the next Arbitrator on the list shall be called. Copies of such notification will be simultaneously sent to the alleged violator and the Council. The Arbitrator shall thereupon, after notice as to time and place to the Subcontractor, the Local Union involved, the Council and the Construction Manager, hold a hearing within 48 hours of receipt of the notice invoking the procedure if it is contended that the

Page 109: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

24

violation still exists. The hearing will not, however, be scheduled for less than 24 hours after the notice required by Article 7, Section 3, of the PLA. All notices pursuant to this paragraph may be provided by telephone, telegraph, e-mail, hand delivery, or fax, confirmed by overnight delivery, to the Arbitrator, Construction Manager, Subcontractor and Local Union involved. The hearing may be held on any day including Saturdays or Sundays. The hearing shall be completed in one session, which shall not exceed 8 hours duration (no more than 4 hours being allowed to either side to present their case, and conduct their cross examination) unless otherwise agreed. A failure of any Union or of the Construction Manager or Subcontractor to attend the hearing shall not delay the hearing of evidence by those present or the issuance of an award by the Arbitrator. The sole issue at such hearing shall be whether a violation of Article 7, Section 1 of the PLA occurred. If a violation is found to have occurred, the Arbitrator shall issue a Cease and Desist Award restraining such violation and serve copies on the Subcontractor and Union involved. The Arbitrator shall have no authority to consider any matter in justification, explanation or mitigation of such violation or to award damages (any damages issue is reserved solely for court proceedings, if any.) The Award shall be issued in writing within 3 hours after the close of the hearing, and may be issued without an Opinion. If any involved party desires an Opinion, one shall be issued within 15 calendar days, but its issuance shall not delay compliance with, or enforcement of, the Award. The Owner and Construction Manager (or such other designee of the Owner) may participate in full in all proceedings under this paragraph 4.21.4. An Award issued under this procedure may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction upon the filing of the PLA together with the Award. Notice of the filing of such enforcement proceedings shall be given to the Union or Subcontractor involved, and the Construction Manager. Any rights created by statute or law governing arbitration proceedings which are inconsistent with the procedure set forth in this paragraph 4.21.4, or which interfere with compliance thereto, are hereby waived by the Subcontractor. The fees and expenses of the Arbitrator shall be equally divided between the involved parties. For purposes of this paragraph 4.21.4, all capitalized terms not defined in this Rider shall have the meaning set forth in the PLA. Procedures contained in Article 9 of the PLA shall not be applicable to any alleged violation of Article 7 of the PLA, with the single exception that an employee discharged for violation of Section 1 of Article 7 of the PLA may have recourse to the procedures of Article 9 therein to determine only if the employee did, in fact, violate the provisions of Section 1 of Article 7; but not for the purpose of modifying the discipline imposed where a violation is found to have occurred.

4.21.5 Except as set forth in paragraph 4.21.4, above, any question, dispute or claim arising out of, or involving the interpretation or application of, the PLA (other than jurisdictional disputes or alleged violations of Article 7, Section 1 of the PLA) shall be considered a “grievance” and shall be resolved pursuant to the exclusive procedure described in Article 9 of the PLA, provided, in all cases, that the question, dispute or claim arises during the term of the PLA. Accordingly, and only to the limited extent set forth in this paragraph 4.21.5 and in Article 9 of the PLA, Subcontractor hereby consents, and shall require its sub-subcontractors and suppliers of whatever tier to consent, to the procedures, including arbitration, set forth in Article 9 of the PLA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the procedures set forth in Article 9 of the PLA shall not apply to any question, claim or dispute other than those which are explicitly set forth therein. Any other question, claim or dispute shall be determined in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this Rider.

4.22 Legal Proceedings

4.22.1 Subcontractor shall assist and cooperate with the Owner and/or the Contractor in any legal actions or proceedings that may arise out of or relate to the Work, including appearances and testimony, as reasonably necessary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and without limiting any other provision in this Agreement, the Subcontractor acknowledges that the resolution and/or satisfaction of any violations issued by any Governmental Authority shall be the sole responsibility (and at the sole expense) of the Subcontractor.

ARTICLE 6 - CHANGES IN THE WORK

6.1 Changes by the Owner

6.1.1 The Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that the Contractor shall have the right, without nullifying any portion of the Contract Documents, to make numerous Changes. The Subcontractor acknowledges and agrees that the volume and/or extent of Changes ordered by the Contractor may be substantial and that the Subcontractor shall make no claims for additional compensation based solely on the number or extent of the Changes. The review of a proposed Change or Changes by the Subcontractor and any Sub-subcontractor, regardless of the number of such reviews, is included in the Subcontractor’s Base Fee and the payments to Subcontractor under this Agreement, and shall not be included as an additional cost to the Contractor on any Change Order.

6.1.2 Changes may be initiated by the Contractor submitting to the Subcontractor a Change Order Request setting forth in detail the nature of the Change. Within three (3) days after receipt of a Change Order Request, the Subcontractor shall furnish to the Contractor a Change Order Proposal. Each Change Order Proposal shall include (a) a detailed estimate (on a drawing-by-drawing basis) prepared by the Subcontractor of the projected costs relating to such Change, (b) a detailed estimate of such costs (on a drawing-by-drawing basis), and (c) a reconciliation of the two estimates. Time and material Change Orders shall be documented on a day-to-day basis within forty-eight (48) hours after covered Work is accomplished. If a Change Order Proposal is not delivered to the Contractor within such three (3) day period, the Subcontractor shall be deemed to have waived its right to make any claim for an extension of any Milestone Event or adjustment to the Subcontract Sum in connection with the Changes which are the subject of said Change Order Proposal or to recover the costs of such Changes. When a schedule of unit prices for additions to or deletions from the Work is made a part of this Agreement, and the Change Order Proposal contains unit pricing, such unit pricing shall conform to such schedule of unit prices. If the Change Order Proposal is in accordance with this Agreement and acceptable to the Contractor, a Change Order (as hereinafter defined) will be executed promptly by the Contractor and the Subcontractor.

6.1.3 If this Agreement provides for an adjustment to the Subcontract Sum or Milestone Events resulting from a Change but, within three (3) days after the issuance of the Change Order Proposal requesting any such adjustment, the Contractor and Subcontractor are unable to agree upon a Change Order with respect to such adjustments, the Contractor nevertheless shall have the right to issue a Directed Change Order directing the Subcontractor to proceed with the Work constituting such Change and, if applicable, providing for any adjustment in the Subcontract Sum or Milestone Events resulting from such Change. Any such adjustment in (a) the Subcontract Sum shall, at the Contractor’s election, equal either (i) the respective amounts therefor set forth in said Directed Change Order or (ii) the actual net increase or decrease in the costs attributable to such Change (in which latter case, such adjustments shall be determined and set forth in writing by the Contractor and the Subcontractor within fourteen (14) days after completion of that portion of the Work constituting such Change), or (b) the Milestone Events, if applicable, shall, at the Contractor’s election, equal the period of time set forth in said Directed Change Order or, if no period is set forth therein, then the period of time, if any, fairly attributable, in the aggregate, to such Change which can be shown to have impacted the Milestone Events. Upon the Subcontractor’s receipt of a Directed Change Order, the Subcontractor shall proceed with the Work constituting the Change provided for therein, promptly after such receipt or as otherwise may be required in said Directed Change Order. If the Subcontractor fails to object to a Directed Change Order or any portion thereof within seven (7) days after the Subcontractor’s receipt of same, then the Subcontractor shall thereby be deemed to have (x) waived any right to object to any adjustments in the Subcontract Sum or Milestone Events provided for in such Directed Change Order or portion thereof, (y) agreed to any such adjustment, and (z) acknowledged that such adjustments, if any, shall constitute the complete and final consideration for all costs, claims, delays or damages incurred by the Subcontractor as a consequence of the Change provided for in such Directed Change Order or portion thereof; in such event, such Directed Change Order or portion thereof shall thereupon be deemed to constitute a Change Order for all purposes under this Agreement.

28

6.1.4 Subcontractor will be permitted an allowance of ten percent (10%) for overhead and profit on labor performed by its own forces and its own material purchases and five percent (5%) for overhead and profit on work performed by its sub-subcontractors. Sub-subcontractor of Subcontractor will be permitted an allowance of ten percent (10%) for overhead and profit on labor performed by its own forces and its own material purchases. The aggregate allowance for overhead and profit on any portion of the Work shall be limited to fifteen percent (15%), regardless of the number of Subcontractor tiers. Neither the Subcontractor nor any sub-subcontractor shall be entitled to any overhead or profit on work performed by one of its Affiliates. If the Subcontractor procures the performance of any work by anyone other than its own forces and such work, in the Contractor’s sole judgment, was of the kind or nature that the Subcontractor should have performed with its own forces, then the Subcontractor shall not be entitled to greater payment than that to which it would have been entitled if its own forces had furnished the labor and materials required in connection with such work.

6.2 Extra Work: The price to be paid for Extra Work ordered pursuant to Article 26 of the Prime Agreement, and performed under this Agreement, shall be as set forth in this Article 6.2. For Extra Work where payment is by agreement on a fixed price in accordance with Article 26.2 of the Prime Agreement, the price to be paid for such Extra Work shall be the fair and reasonable cost of the items set forth below. For Extra Work where payment is on a time and material basis in accordance with Article 26.2 of the Prime Agreement, the price to be paid for such Extra Work shall be the actual and reasonable cost of the times set forth below.

6.2.1 Necessary materials (including transportation to the Site);

6.2.2 Necessary direct labor, the cost of which shall be comprised of the items set forth below:

(a) Prevailing wages and supplemental benefits, as defined in Labor Law Section 220;

(b) Payroll taxes, defined as State Unemployment Insurance (“SUI”), Federal Unemployment Insurance (“FUI”) and payments pursuant to the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (“FICA”); and

(c) Workers’ compensation insurance, as set forth in Article 12 and Exhibit G of this Agreement. The cost of workers’ compensation insurance shall be based upon the average rate for such insurance for the applicable class(es) of labor, in accordance with the most recent schedule promulgated by the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board.

6.2.3 Sales and personal property taxes, if any, required to be paid on materials not incorporated into such Extra Work;

6.2.4 Maintenance, operation and rental or, or reasonable rental value of sub-subcontractor-owned, necessary plant and equipment other than small tools. Sub-subcontractor-owned equipment is defined to include equipment rental companies affiliated with or controlled by the sub-subcontractor, as determined by the Director. Payment rates for the use of sub-subcontractor-owned plant and equipment shall be in accordance with the provisions of Joint Directive No. 1 issued by the City of New York Mayor’s Office of Construction and the Comptroller. The applicable director shall be that in effect at the time of the bid opening for the subcontract;

6.2.5 Necessary installation and dismantling of such plant and equipment (including transportation to and from the Site), if any;

6.2.6 Reasonable rental costs of non-sub-subcontractor-owned necessary plant and equipment other than small tools. In no event shall the amount paid to the sub-subcontractor for such rental exceed the lower of the actual value of such equipment or the book value of such equipment;

6.2.7 Any insurance coverage expressly required by CUCF for the performance of the Extra Work which is different than the types of insurance required by Article 12 and Exhibit G, other than workers’ compensation insurance.

Page 114: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

29

6.3 Where the Extra Work is performed in whole or in part by other than Subcontractor, Subcontractor shall be paid, subject to audit by CUCF, the cost of such Work computed in accordance with Article 6.2 above, plus an additional allowance of five (5%) percent as the Subcontractor’s overhead and profit.

6.4 Where a Change is ordered that involves both Extra Work and omitted or reduced Work, the subcontract price shall be adjusted, subject to audit by CUCF, in an amount based on the difference between the cost of such Extra Work and of the omitted or reduced Work. The cost of such Extra Work and of such omitted or reduced Work shall be computed based upon applicable subcontract unit prices. Where there are no applicable subcontract unit prices, the cost of such Extra Work and of such omitted or reduced Work shall be computed in accordance with the Articles 6.2.1 through 6.2.7. If the cost of such Extra Work exceeds the costs of such omitted or reduced Work, the subcontract price shall be increased by the difference, plus percentages for overhead and profit as provided in Article 6.3. If the cost of the omitted or reduced Work exceeds the cost of the Extra Work, then the subcontract price shall be reduced by the difference.

6.5 When the Construction Manager and the Contracting Officer agree upon another method of payment for Extra Work in accordance with Article 26.2 of the Prime Agreement, or for Extra Work ordered in connection with omitted work, such method, subject to audit, may, at the sole option of the Director, be substituted for the cost-plus-a-percentage method provided in Article 6.2 above; provided, however, that if the Extra Work is performed by a sub-subcontractor engaged by a Subcontractor, the Subcontractor shall not be entitled to receive more than an additional allowance of five (5%) percent for overhead and profit over the cost of such sub-subcontractor’s Work as computed in accordance with Article 6.2.

6.6 Unless the parties agree on a lump-sum payment for Extra Work, requests for payment for Extra Work performed by Subcontractor or its sub-subcontractors, of whatever tier, shall be accompanied by signed time sheets, documenting by date the actual hours worked by specific personnel for whom payment is requested, and any other data as may be requested by the Director. Under an agreement for a lump-sum payment for Extra Work, Subcontractor shall furnish to the Construction Manager all documentation required for a requisition for payment for Work completed.

6.7 Overrun of Unit Price Item: The provisions set forth below shall apply to overruns of unit price items which the Construction Manager, through its Subcontractor, is directed to provide which is in excess of one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the estimated quantity for that item set forth in the bid schedule.

6.7.1 For any unit price item, Subcontractor will be paid at the unit price bid for any quantity up to one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the estimated quantity for that item set forth in the bid schedule. If during the progress of the Work the actual quantity of any unit price item required to complete the Work approaches the estimated quantity for that item, and due to errors, site conditions, changes in design, or any other reason, it appears that the actual quantity of any unit price item necessary to complete the Work will exceed the estimated quantity for that item by twenty-five (25%) percent, Subcontractor shall immediately notify the Construction Manager of such anticipated overrun. Subcontractor shall not be compensated for any quantity of a unit price item provided which is in excess of one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the estimated quantity for that item set forth in the bid schedule without written authorization from the Director’s Representative.

6.7.2 If the actual quantity of any unit price item necessary to complete the Work will exceed one hundred twenty-five (125%) percent of the estimated quantity for that item set forth in the bid schedule, CUCF reserves the right, and Subcontractor agrees, to negotiate a new unit price for such item. In no event shall such negotiated new price exceed the unit bid price. If CUCF and Subcontractor cannot agree on a new unit price, then CUCF shall order the Construction Manager, and Subcontractor agrees, to provide additional quantities of the item on a time and material basis for the actual and reasonable cost as determined under this Article 6, but in no event at a unit price exceeding the unit price bid.

6.8 Omitted Work

6.8.1 Any Work, if this Agreement be a lump-sum subcontract, or, otherwise, if any part of a lump-sum item in this Agreement, is omitted by the Director pursuant to Article 33 of the Prime Agreement, the subcontract price, subject to audit by CUCF, shall be reduced by a pro-rata portion of the lump-sum bid amount based upon the

Page 115: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

30

percent of Work omitted, subject to Article 6.8.4. For the purpose of determining the pro rata portion of the lump sum bid amount, the bid breakdown submitted by Subcontractor shall be considered, but shall not be the determining factor.

6.8.2 If this Agreement is a unit price, lump-sum, or percentage-bid subcontract, and either the whole of a lump-sum item or units of any other item is omitted by the Director, no payment will be made therefore, except as provided in Article 6.8.4.

6.8.3 For units that have been ordered but are only partially completed, the unit price shall be reduced by a pro-rata portion of the unit price bid based upon the percentage of Work omitted, subject to Article 6.8.4.

6.8.4 In the event Subcontractor, with respect to any omitted Work, has purchased any non-cancelable material and/or equipment that is not capable of use except in the performance of this Agreement, and has been specifically fabricated for the sole purpose of this Agreement, but not yet incorporated into the Work, Subcontractor shall be paid for such material and/or equipment, as set forth below; provided, however, such payment is contingent upon Subcontractor’s delivery of such material and/or equipment in acceptable condition to a location designated by CUCF.

6.8.4.1 Payment for such material and/or equipment shall be in accordance with Article 6.2, and the percentage for overhead and profit shall be five (5%) percent.

6.8.5 Subcontractor agrees to make no claim for damages or for loss of overhead and profit with regard to any omitted Work.

6.9 Claims by the Subcontractor

6.9.1 If the Subcontractor claims that it has incurred (a) an increase in the Subcontract Sum because of, but not limited to, (i) any order by the Contractor to stop the Work where the Subcontractor was not at fault, (ii) a suspension of the Work for the Contractor’s convenience, or (iii) failure of payment by the Owner or the Contractor, or (b) a delay in achieving any of the Milestone Events by reason of a Change or an Unavoidable Delay, and this Agreement does not prohibit the Construction Manager from obtaining an increase in the Subcontract Sum by reason thereof, or being granted an extension of the applicable Milestone Event, as the case may be, by reason of such event, the Subcontractor shall make such claim as provided in Article 16 hereof.

6.9.2 The Subcontractor shall give the Contractor notice of any claim pursuant to Section 6.9.1 hereof (or otherwise) and a Change Order Proposal within seven (7) days after receiving actual knowledge concerning the occurrence of the event giving rise to such claim. Such notice shall be delivered by the Subcontractor before proceeding to execute the Work, except in an emergency endangering life or property, and shall be a condition precedent to any further consideration of the claim. No such claim shall be valid unless so made within said seven (7) day period. Any increase in the Subcontract Sum or extension of any Milestone Event resulting from such claim shall be authorized only by Change Order executed by both parties and approved and executed by the Director.

6.10 Change Orders

6.10.1 In the event the Contractor and Subcontractor agree on the scope of a Change, they shall execute a Change Order.

6.10.2 If unit prices are subsequently agreed upon, and if the quantities originally contemplated are so changed in a proposed Change Order or, as a result of several Change Orders, that the Subcontractor is able to realize lower unit prices, the applicable unit prices shall be decreased to equal such lower price.

Page 116: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

31

6.11 Changes Authorized by the Contractor

6.11.1 Only the Contractor shall have authority to order Field Proceed Orders, which shall essentially be clarifications of the Contract Documents, not involving an increase in the Subcontract Sum or an extension of any Milestone Event and not inconsistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Such Field Proceed Orders may be effected by written order and shall be binding on the Contractor and the Subcontractor. If the Subcontractor believes that any Field Proceed Order will result in an increase in the Subcontract Sum or a delay in achieving any Milestone Event, then the Subcontractor shall notify the Contractor of the same immediately and shall not proceed with performing the work ordered in such Field Proceed Order without first obtaining the Contractor’s written consent thereto.

6.12 Owner Approval Required; Audit Rights

6.12.1 Any proposed change order to any subcontract(s) and any purchase order(s) hereunder are subject to the prior written approval of the Director. The Director will make all final determinations regarding change orders, modifications, and additions to the Construction Documents, which determination shall be binding upon Subcontractor, subject only to the dispute resolution procedures set forth in the Prime Agreement and in Article 16 of this Agreement.

6.12.2 All change orders are subject to audit. In any event an audit reveals that the costs for or scope of the change order work or of the Extra Work was stated inaccurately, CUCF and the Construction Manager shall recoup the amount by which the costs were inaccurately stated by proportionately reducing the price of the change order or the contract price. This remedy is not exclusive, and is in addition to all other rights and remedies of CUCF and the Construction Manager.

6.13 Change Management Requirements

6.13.1 The Subcontractor shall provide for the Subcontractor’s use all written procedures to follow and form documents to use in connection with Changes and with claims by the Subcontractor for cost or schedule adjustments. The Subcontractor shall comply with such procedures and utilize such form documents, and cause the Sub-subcontractors to do the same, with respect to any such Changes or claims.

10.7 No Damages for Delay; Extensions of Time: Subcontractor agrees to make no claim for damages for delay in the performance of this Agreement occasions by any act or omission by CUCF, Contractor or any of their respective representatives, and agrees that any such claim shall be fully compensated by an extension of time to complete performance of the Work, as provided herein. If the performance of the Work, either by Subcontractor, or by any sub-subcontractor of whatever tier hereunder, is delayed for a reason referred to by subparagraph 10.7.1 herein, the Subcontractor may be allowed a reasonable extension of time. An extension of time for further subcontracted work may be granted only by the Director, upon written application by the Construction Manager The parties agree that, with respect to this Agreement, the Subcontractor may encounter delays attributable to CUCF and/or Contractor from time to time, including, without limitation, those which are unexpected and unforeseeable, in the progress of the Work, for which delays the Subcontractor agrees that it shall be fully and wholly compensated for each such delay solely and exclusively by an extension of time to complete performance of the Work, and agrees to make no other claim for damages for such delay. The Subcontractor hereby expressly waives and relinquishes all other damages for delay.

10.7.1 Grounds for Extension: If such written application is made to the Director, the Subcontractor shall be entitled to an extension of time for delay in achieving a Milestone Event or for completion of Work, which the Subcontractor conclusively proves to the Director is caused solely: (1) by the acts or omissions of CUCF, its officers, agents or employees; or (2) by the act or omissions of other contractors; or (3) by unavoidable delay, as defined in Article 1.35 of the Prime Agreement, or other supervening conditions entirely beyond the control of either party hereto. The Construction Manager shall, however, be entitled to an extension of time for such causes only for the number of days of delay which the Director may determine to be due solely to such causes, and then only if Subcontractor shall have strictly complied with all of the applicable requirements of Articles 8, 16 and 17 of the Prime Agreement.

10.7.2 Extension for Concurrent Causes of Delay: Subcontractor shall not be entitled to receive a separate extension of time for each of several causes of delay operating concurrently, but, if at all, only for the actual period of delay in completion of the Work as determined by the Director, irrespective of the number of causes contributing to produce such delay. If one of several causes of delay operating concurrently results from any act, fault or omission of Subcontractor or of its sub-subcontractors or materialmen, of whatever tier, and would of itself (irrespective of the concurrent causes) have delayed the Work, no extension of time will be allowed for the period of delay resulting from such act, fault or omission. The determination made by the Director shall be binding and conclusive on Subcontractor. The granting of an application for an extension of time for causes of delay other than those herein referred to shall be entirely within the discretion of the Director.

Permitting Subcontractor to continue with the Work, or any portion thereof, after the applicable Milestone Date or other time fixed for its completion has expired, or after the time to which such completion may have been extended has expired, or the making of any payment to Subcontractor after such time, shall in no way operated as a waiver on the part of CUCF or of Contractor of any of its rights under the Prime Agreement or this Agreement.

10.7.3 Application for Extension of Time: Before Subcontractor’s request for a time extension may be approved, Subcontractor must within three (3) business days, time being of the essence with respect thereto, after commencement of the condition which allegedly has caused or is causing the delay, submit a written application to the Director, with a copy to the Construction Manager, identifying:

(a) the Construction Manager, the Subcontractor, the Agreement registration number; and Project description;

(b) liquidated damage assessment rate, as specified in this Agreement; (c) original subcontract bid amount; (d) the original subcontract start date and completion date; (e) any previous time extensions granted (number and duration);and (f) the extension of time requested.

Subcontractor shall thereafter submit updates of such particulars to Contractor from time to time not more than thirty (30) days after any such further costs or losses of time are claimed to have been incurred.

Page 126: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

41

In addition, the application for extension of time shall set forth in detail: (a) the nature of each alleged cause of delay in completing the Work or portion thereof; (b) the date upon which each such cause of delay began and ended and the number of days

attributable to each such cause; (c) a statement that Subcontractor waives all claims except those delineated in the

application and the particulars of any claims which Subcontractor does not agree to waive. For time extensions for final completion payments, the application shall include a detailed statement of the dollar amounts of each element of claim item reserved; and

(d) a statement indicating Subcontractor’s understanding that the time extension is granted only for the purpose of permitting continuation of performance and payment for work performed and that the Construction Manager and CUCF each retains its right to conduct an investigation and assess liquidated damages as appropriate.

10.7.4 Determination of Time Extensions: Time extensions for the Work, or any portion thereof, shall be determined in writing by the Director. The determination of the Director shall be final and binding as to the allowance of an extension and the number of days allowed.

10.7.5 Assessment of Liquidated Damages: In the case of final completion payments, liquidated damages shall be assessed as determined by the delay analysis prepared by the CUNY construction management staff pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Prime Agreement. However, neither the failure to assess liquidated damages at the time, nor the report itself, nor the granting of a time extension at final completion shall operate as a waiver or release of any claim against the Subcontractor for either actual or liquidated damages.

10.8 Liquidated Damages

10.8.1 Contractor and the Subcontractor recognize that the consequential damages to the Owner and/or the Contractor which would result from the Subcontractor’s failure to achieve completion of any of the applicable Milestone Events would be substantial but are uncertain and cannot be calculated exactly and have agreed that if the Subcontractor shall have failed to achieve any Milestone Event, the Subcontractor shall pay to the Contractor, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, with respect to each Milestone Event, the applicable Liquidated Damages. The Contractor shall have the right to withhold from any sums due to the Subcontractor under this Agreement the amount of Liquidated Damages then due to the Owner, and apply the same towards payment of such Liquidated Damages. If Subcontractor shall fail to pay any Liquidated Damages as and when due, Subcontractor hereby gives CUCF a direct right of action against Subcontractor to enforce and collect such Liquidated Damages. It is agreed, however, that the existence of such right shall not impose an obligation upon CUCF to exercise such right.

10.8.2 The parties further acknowledge that the amount of Liquidated Damages provided for in Section 10.8.1 hereof represents fair and reasonable consideration under the circumstances existing as of the date of this Agreement and that such sum represents the parties’ best estimate as of the date hereof of the Contractor’s and/or Owner’s damages for delay in the event of the Subcontractor’s failure to achieve any Milestone Event.

10.8.3 The parties acknowledge and agree that the Liquidated Damages provided for in Section 10.8.1 relate only to damages to the Contractor caused by a delay in achieving any Milestone Event, and such Liquidated Damages are not intended to, and shall not, limit the Contractor’s recovery from the Subcontractor under the terms of this Agreement for any direct damages caused by or resulting from the performance of the Work by the Subcontractor or any Sub-subcontractors.

10.8.4 If Contractor determines, in its sole good faith judgment based upon a review of the then current Project Schedule and the most recent reports issued pursuant to Article 5 of this Agreement, that the Subcontractor will not achieve any of the Milestone Events, the Contractor may withhold from any payments due to the Subcontractor under this Agreement an amount equal to the aggregate Liquidated Damages that Contractor anticipates will become due under Section 10.8.1 hereof, by reason of the projected

Page 127: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

42

late achievement of such Milestone Event. Once such Milestone Event shall have been achieved, the Contractor shall reconcile the actual amount of Liquidated Damages due, if any, with the amount withheld by the Contractor on account of the foregoing anticipated Liquidated Damages, and the difference, if any, shall be accounted for in the next payment due to the Subcontractor hereunder.

ARTICLE 11 - WARRANTY; GUARANTY; BONDS

11.1 Warranty

11.1.1 The Subcontractor warrants that:

a. the Work shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, in conformity with the Contract Documents and consistent with the highest standards and practices of the construction industry in the area of the Project Site for “Class A” properties similar to the Project, and shall be of first-class quality and workmanship, free of any faults or defects in equipment, material, or design furnished, or workmanship performed by the Subcontractor, or any Sub-subcontractor, supplier or manufacturer retained by the Subcontractor for purposes of performing the Work; and

b. The materials and equipment provided in support of the Work performed are new unless otherwise specified in the Contract Documents.

11.1.2 The warranties described in this Section 11.1 shall not be construed to modify or limit, in any way, any rights or actions which Owner and/or the Contractor may otherwise have against Subcontractor, at law or in equity.

11.2 Guaranty

11.2.1 If, within the Guaranty Period, any of the Work is found to be damaged, defective or at variance with the Contract Documents, the Subcontractor shall repair or replace such Work at its sole cost and expense. The Subcontractor shall make or commence to make, within two (2) days of its receipt of notice from the Owner and/or Contractor during the Guaranty Period, any and all repairs or replacements of such Work, and shall repair and replace, at its sole cost and expense, any and all damage caused by such repair or replacements, to the satisfaction of the Owner and the Contractor. If the Owner and/or the Contractor determines that an emergency exists which requires more immediate action than the Subcontractor is able to provide, the Owner and/or the Contractor may, without sending any notice to the Subcontractor, perform or cause to be performed such repairs or replacements, in which event the Subcontractor shall compensate the Owner and the Contractor for the cost thereof, on demand. Any repairs or replacements that the Subcontractor is required to make pursuant to this Section 11.2.1 shall be prosecuted to completion by the Subcontractor even if such repairs or replacements may not be completed until after the expiration of the Guaranty Period. The Guaranty Period shall be deemed extended for any repair or replacement to the date which is one (1) year from the final acceptance of such repair or replacement. The obligations of the Subcontractor to make repairs or replacements under this Section 11.2.1 shall not be satisfied, unless the Owner and the Contractor so elect in writing, by the payment of money to the Owner and/or the Contractor. If the Owner and/or the Contractor determine, in their sole and absolute discretion, that any materials or equipment installed as part of the Work are inherently defective, thus being incapable of repair, then the Subcontractor shall, upon notification by the Owner and/or the Contractor of such determination, provide a replacement for such materials or equipment. The Owner and/or the Contractor may, if either so elects, specify the manufacturer and the trade name or model number of the replacement for such materials or equipment. In the event that the Subcontractor fails to comply with any of the provisions of this Section 11.2.1, the Owner and/or the Contractor may, in addition to exercising all other legal and equitable remedies they each may have, (1) deduct from any payment due or thereafter to become due to the Subcontractor under this Agreement, the amount of damage, cost or expense that has been or, as reasonably estimated by the Owner and/or the Contractor, may be incurred by the Owner and/or the Contractor due to such failure by the Subcontractor, and (2) perform or cause to be performed any needed repairs and replacements, in which event the Subcontractor shall compensate the Owner and/or the

Page 128: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

43

Contractor for the cost thereof, on demand. The Subcontractor hereby expressly waives all claims that its guaranty or any of its warranties were impaired due to any corrective work performed by, or at the direction of, the Owner and/or Subcontractor. This Section 11.2.1 shall survive Final Completion of the Project or the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

11.3 Sub-subcontractors’ Guarantees and Warranties

11.3.1 The Subcontractor shall provide and shall obtain from the sub-subcontractors (excluding those sub-subcontractors which have only supplied materials and equipment and not installed the same) and deliver to the Owner and the Contractor four copies of notarized warranties in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit R for the Work performed under each section of the Specifications. The Subcontractor shall submit all of the warranties to the Contractor, the Owner and the Architect as a prerequisite to Final Payment.

11.3.2 In addition to procuring the warranties required pursuant to Section 11.3.1 hereof, the Subcontractor shall acknowledge and agree to Section 11.3.1 hereof and shall arrange for the inclusion of the following provision in every Sub-subcontract, agreement and purchase order relating to the purchase by the Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractors of Merchandise to be installed or incorporated by the Subcontractor or the Sub-subcontractors as part of the Work:

“The supplier expressly agrees that The City University Construction Fund (“Owner”) shall be a third-party beneficiary of all of the obligations of the supplier hereunder, including without limitation, the beneficiary of all warranties, expressed or implied, and guarantees which the supplier makes herein relating to labor, materials, equipment, goods, merchandise or products (collectively, “Merchandise”) to be sold hereunder by the supplier. Nothing herein shall be construed to make this an agreement between the Owner and/or F.J. Sciame Construction Co., Inc. and the supplier except to the extent provided in the immediately preceding sentence and the supplier acknowledges that it has no contractual rights, expressed or implied, which it can assert against the Owner and/or F.J. Sciame Construction Co., Inc. Without limiting in any manner any obligations of the supplier with respect to the quality of the Merchandise or any other warranty or guaranty provided by the supplier, the supplier expressly warrants and agrees that the Merchandise to be furnished hereunder shall be merchantable and shall be fit for the purpose for which such Merchandise is purchased.”

11.3.3 At the Owner’s and/or Contractor’s election, the Subcontractor shall either enforce, on the Owner’s behalf, the guarantees and warranties described in Sections 11.1 and 11.2 hereof, or assist the Owner and/or the Contractor in the enforcement thereof.

11.4 Owner’s Rights

11.4.1 The warranties and guaranties provided for in this Article 11 and elsewhere in the Contract Documents shall be for the benefit of, and enforceable by, the Owner and/or the Contractor on behalf of the Owner at the request of the Owner, and shall be in addition to and not a limitation of any rights the Owner and/or the Contractor may have under the terms of the Contract Documents, or which may otherwise be available at law or in equity.

11.5 Subguard

44

conditions of such enrollment to be met and to enable any claim which may be made under said progress by reason of the Work to be fully and accurately administered.

11.6 Payment Guarantee

11.6.1 In the event the terms of this Agreement do not require the Construction Manager or Subcontractor to provide a payment bond, CUCF shall, in accordance with the terms of this Article 11.6, guarantee payment of all lawful demands for: (a) wages and compensation for labor performed and/or services rendered; and (b) materials, equipment, and supplies provided, whether incorporated into the Work or not, when demands have been filed with CUCF as provided herein by any person, firm or corporation which furnished labor, material, equipment, supplies or any combination thereof, in connection with the Work performed hereunder (hereinafter referred to as the “beneficiary”) at the direction of CUCF, the Construction Manager or its subcontractor(s). For the purpose of this Article 11.6, “subcontractor” shall mean any person, firm, or corporation, other than employees of the Construction Manger, who or which contracts with the Construction Manager to furnish, or actually furnishes, labor, or labor and materials, or labor and equipment, at the site or in the performance of any of the Work hereunder.

11.6.2 The provisions of Article 11.6.1 above are subject to the following limitations and conditions:

(a) The guarantee is made for the benefit of all beneficiaries as defined in Article 11.6.1, above, provided that those beneficiaries strictly adhere to the terms and conditions of this Article 116.2;

(b) Nothing in this Article 11.6 shall prevent a beneficiary providing labor, services or material for the work from suing the Construction Manager or its Subcontractor(s) for any amounts due and owing the beneficiary by the Construction Manager or its Subcontractor(s).

(c) All demands made against CUCF pursuant to this Article 11.6 shall be made within four (4) months from the date payment is due on the invoice or invoices submitted by the beneficiary to the Construction Manager or its Subcontractor(s) for labor or work done or for materials or supplies delivered or, if the demand is for wages, four (4) months from the date the wages were due to be paid to the beneficiary.

(d) All demands made against CUCF by such beneficiary shall be presented to the Director’s Representative along with all written documentation concerning the demand which the Director’s Representative deems appropriate or necessary, which may include, but shall not be limited to: the subcontract or sub-subcontract; any invoices presented to the Construction Manager or Subcontractor for payment; the notarized statement of the beneficiary that the demand is due and payable, that a required for payment has been made of the Construction Manager or Subcontractor and that the demand has not been paid by the Construction Manager or Subcontractor within the time allowed for such payment by the subcontract or sub-subcontract, and copies of any correspondence between the beneficiary and the Construction Manager or Subcontractor concerning such demand. CUCF shall notify the Construction Manger or Subcontractor that a demand has been made. The Construction Manger or Subcontractor shall inform CUCF of any defenses to the demand, and shall forward to CUCF any documents CUCF requests concerning the demand.

(e) CUCF shall make payment only if, after considering all defenses presented by the Construction Manager or Subcontractor, it determines that the payment is due and owing to the beneficiary making the demand.

(f) CUCF will not initiate the payment process of this Article 11.6 or make payment on a demand where the beneficiary making the demand has filed a lien against the Work or otherwise sues CUCF prior to receiving a written notice from CUCF that it will not pay the demand.

45

11.6.3 In the event CUCF determines that the demand is valid, CUCF shall notify the Construction Manager of such determination and the amount thereof, and direct the Construction Manager to pay immediately such amount to the beneficiary. In the event the Construction Manager, within seven (7) days of receipt of such notification from CUCF, fails to pay the beneficiary, such failure shall constitute automatic and irrevocable assignment of payment by the Construction Manager to the beneficiary for the amount of the demand determined by CUCF to be valid. The Construction Manager, without further notification or other process, hereby gives its unconditional consent to such assignment of payment to the beneficiary and authorizes CUCF, on its behalf, to take all necessary actions to implement such assignment of payment, including without limitation the execution of any instrument or documentation necessary to effect such assignment.

11.6.4 The provisions of this Article shall not prevent the parties from resolving disputes in accordance with the provisions of Article 29 of the Prime Agreement and Article 16 of this Agreement.

46

ARTICLE 13 - INDEMNITY

13.1 Indemnity

13.1.1 For and in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, Subcontractor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Construction Manager to the same degree that the Construction Manager is obligated to indemnify any other party (including but not limited to, CUCF) under the Prime Agreement.

13.1.2 Without limiting the foregoing, Subcontractor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Laws, (a) indemnify and hold harmless each of the Indemnitees, from and against any and all Losses that may be incurred by any of the Indemnitees as a result of, in connection with, or allegedly arising from or as a consequence of (i) the performance, non-performance or any breach of this Agreement by the Subcontractor, (ii) any breach of a sub-subcontract by a sub-subcontractor, (iii) the infringement of any copyright, patent or trademark arising out of the performance of any Work, (iv) a violation by the Subcontractor or any sub-subcontractor of any Applicable Laws or any Permits, or (v) any negligent acts or omissions or willful conduct of the Subcontractor or any sub-subcontractor or any of their respective employees, agents or representatives in connection with Work, and (b) defend each of the Indemnitees against any Recovery Action. Insofar as the facts and Law relating to any claim would preclude any of the Indemnitees from being completely indemnified by Subcontractor, such of the Indemnitees shall be partially indemnified by Subcontractor to the fullest extent provided by Applicable Laws.

13.1.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13.1.1 hereof, any of the Indemnitees may elect, at any time and in its sole and absolute discretion, to defend itself against any Recovery Action, with counsel of its choice. If an Indemnitee does not exercise such election, (a) any counsel proposed to be retained by the Subcontractor to defend such Indemnitee shall not be so retained without the prior written approval of such Indemnitee, (b) the Subcontractor shall, and shall instruct the counsel that it retains to, keep such Indemnitee apprised in writing, on a regular basis, of the status of the Recovery Action, (c) in the event of any disagreement between the Subcontractor and said Indemnitee regarding the strategy to employ in connection with said Recovery Action, the Indemnitee’s strategy shall prevail and be followed by the Subcontractor and its counsel, and (d) the Recovery Action shall not be settled without said Indemnitee’s prior written approval of the settlement.

13.1.4 The foregoing indemnity shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the amount or type of damages, compensation or benefits payable by or for the benefit of the Subcontractor under any applicable workers compensation, disability benefits or other similar employee benefit acts.

13.1.5 In the event the Construction Manager or any of the other Indemnitees incur any Losses or any Recovery Action is asserted or instituted against the Construction Manager or any of the other Indemnitees, the Construction Manager shall be entitled to withhold from any payments then due or thereafter becoming due to the Subcontractor under this Agreement such amount as may be deemed sufficient, in the reasonable judgment of the Construction Manager, to protect it and the other Indemnitees against any Losses that they may incur, and the Construction Manager shall also be entitled to apply any such withheld amount to compensate itself and the other Indemnitees for any Losses that they actually incur.

13.1.6 The Subcontractor shall include in each sub-subcontract an indemnity provision substantially similar to the provisions in this Section 13.1, which shall also expressly provide that the sub-subcontractor thereunder shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitees, in addition to the Subcontractor, and that the Indemnitees are third party beneficiaries of said provision.

13.1.7 The provisions of this Section 13.1 shall survive Final Completion of the Work or the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

14.1.2 The Subcontract Sum shall be paid to the Subcontractor monthly, in proportion to the Work performed in the immediately preceding month, subject to retention of ten percent (10%).

The retained portion of the Subcontract Sum shall be released to the Subcontractor as part of the Final Payment.

14.1.3 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Contract Documents, and with respect to any Change Order, in no event shall the Subcontractor receive any profit attributable to the Subcontractor’s or any Subcontractor’s overtime or “premium” time, it being the intent of the parties that the Subcontractor will receive profit only on the “straight” time, or non-overtime, portion of such Change Order.

14.2 Discounts, Rebates and Credits

14.2.1 The Subcontract Sum shall be credited with all rebates, trade discounts, credits on taxes or credits realized on cash deposits or insurance premiums. The Subcontractor shall take such steps as are reasonably necessary and appropriate to obtain such discounts, rebates and credits; provided, however, the Subcontractor shall not be required to utilize its own funds to secure such discounts, rebates and credits. Any tools, supplies or equipment left at the Project Site at the completion of the Work shall be transferred to the Contractor in good condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear. The Subcontractor shall provide a list of all such equipment to the Contractor.

48

ARTICLE 15 - SUBCONTRACT SUM

15.1 Subcontractor understands, acknowledges and agrees that the underlying Project is subject to public financing, which is not guaranteed and may not occur. Accordingly, and to the fullest extent permitted by law and in accordance and to the same extent as the Prime Agreement, Subcontractor agrees that this Agreement shall be deemed executory only to the extent of the moneys appropriated by the applicable governmental entities and available for the purpose of the Prime Agreement and this Agreement and that no liability or account thereof shall be incurred by any party beyond the amount of such moneys. Subcontractor further acknowledges and agrees that no amounts shall be paid on account of this Agreement unless the Director has given prior written approval to the amount of award of this Agreement and the amount of any change orders thereto, as required by Article 10 of the Prime Agreement.

15.2 Schedule of Values: Upon commencement of construction, and prior to any progress payment being made by the Construction Manager on account of the Work, Subcontractor shall submit to the Construction Manager a schedule of Values, which shall be prepared on a form provided by the Construction Manager, of construction costs for the Work of this Agreement, and any other information that may be required by the Construction Manager and the Director. The breakdown must be approved in writing by the Construction Manager and the Director’s Representative, and may be amended, modified, revised or supplemented, from time to time, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Schedule of Values shall: (i) be prepared in a form with such detail and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Construction Manager may require; (ii) be broken down into cost categories indicating material in fabrication, material fabricated and stored off-site (if permitted by the Owner and the Construction Manager), material delivered and stored on-site, and material in-place; (iii) include reserves for testing, start-up, commissioning, Punch List work and final record documentation of the Work; and, (iv) provide other detail to permit the Construction Manager to verify the Work Cost and its percentage completion on a monthly basis. No partial payment will be made until the bid breakdown is approved. The breakdown set forth in the Schedule of Values shall be used for checking Subcontractor’s requests for partial payment for Work performed and the other purposes provided for in Section 15.15, and shall not be binding on the Construction Manager or the Director for any purpose whatsoever. The Schedule of Values shall not be amended, modified, revised or supplemented by the Subcontractor except as necessary to take into account adjustments to the Work Cost or as otherwise required pursuant to Section 15.15.

15.3 Cost Records

15.3.1 The Subcontractor shall keep detailed accounts and cost records, in addition to those specified elsewhere in this Agreement, as are normally maintained by experienced and prudent trade contractors for work similar in nature and scope to the Work, including, without limitation, cost records required in connection with time and material and/or unit price Change Orders.

15.4 Taxes Included in Subcontract Sum

15.4.1 The Subcontract Sum shall include all taxes which are legally enacted at the time that this Agreement is executed.

15.5 No Escalation

15.5.1 The Subcontractor understands and agrees that escalation in the costs of labor and/or materials, regardless of the cause for such escalation, including the Contractor’s delay, and the time of such escalation, shall not constitute a Change or entitle the Subcontractor to a Change Order or additional payment of any nature.

Page 134: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

49

15.6 Cost Overruns

15.6.1 If the aggregate of the actual Cost of the Work and the Base Fee exceeds the Subcontract Sum, as adjusted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Subcontractor shall pay and bear the entire amount of such excess.

15.7 Shortfall

15.7.1 Each Application for Payment submitted by the Subcontractor shall constitute a representation that to the best knowledge of the Subcontractor the undisbursed remainder of the Subcontract Sum will be sufficient to fund the performance and completion of the Work. If at any time the Contractor, in good faith, determines that the undisbursed remainder of the Subcontract Sum will not be sufficient to complete the Work, then no additional payments shall be made to the Subcontractor hereunder unless and until the Subcontractor, at its sole cost and expense, performs a sufficient portion of the Work so that the portion of the Subcontract Sum then remaining unpaid, as reasonably determined by the Contractor, shall be sufficient to complete the Work.

15.8 Progress Payments

15.8.1 Based upon each Application for Payment and accompanying documents submitted by the Subcontractor in accordance with this Agreement, and the Certificates for Payment, the Construction Manager shall make progress payments to the Subcontractor in accordance with the terms of this Section 15.15. Each Application for Payment shall include a verified statement in the prescribed form setting forth the information required under Section 220(a) of the Labor Law and an executed original Subcontractor’s Waiver and Release of Lien.

15.8.2 Subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the amount of each monthly progress payment shall be computed as follows:

a. calculate the product of (i) the Subcontract Sum, times (ii) the Percentage of Completion of all construction Work required under Agreement, as determined by the Construction Manager and the Director, based on the Schedule of Values;

b. subject to fulfillment of all of the terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit D of the Prime Agreement and Section 15.16.3 of this Agreement with respect to stored equipment and fabricated materials, subject to approval by the Director, add eighty-five (85%) percent of the portion of the Subcontract Sum incurred to date which is allocable to such equipment and fabricated materials stored in accordance with Exhibit D of the Prime Agreement and Section 15.16.3 of this Agreement;

c. subtract the amount retained from previous progress payments under this Section 15.15.2 that has not yet been paid to the Subcontractor;

d. subtract amounts already paid to the Subcontractor in respect of the Subcontract Sum (including any retainage paid);

e. subtract retainage on the subject progress payment pursuant to Section 15.15.3 hereof; and

f. subtract amounts withheld under Section 15.18 hereof.

15.8.3 Until Substantial Completion of the Work, the Construction Manager shall deduct and retain 5% of the value of the construction Work certified for payment in each partial payment voucher. Upon determination by the Director that the Work required is substantially complete, the retainage shall be reduced to 1% of the value of the construction Work certified for payment in each partial payment voucher,

which amount shall be retained by the Construction Manager in accordance with Article 25 of the Prime Agreement.

15.8.4 Provided that the completed Application for Payment was timely submitted, each progress payment shall be made to the Subcontractor within forty-five (45) days, provided that Construction Manager has received the corresponding payment from Owner. The Construction Manager reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to issue any portion of a progress payment as a joint or two-party check payable to the Subcontractor and any sub-subcontractor or other party payable pursuant to the applicable Application for Payment.

15.8.5 The Subcontractor shall use the sums paid to it as progress payments solely for the purpose of the performance of, and payment for, the Work. The Subcontractor shall hold all monies received in trust for such purpose in accordance with Applicable Laws.

15.8.6 Promptly upon request from the Construction Manager, the Subcontractor shall furnish to the Construction Manager satisfactory proof as to the disposition of any monies paid to the Subcontractor hereunder; provided, however, no provisions hereof shall be construed to require the Construction Manager to see to the proper disposition or application of such monies.

15.8.7 The Subcontractor shall promptly pay all costs incurred in performance of the Work, and, at the request of the Construction Manager, shall deliver to the Construction Manager copies of all invoices, receipts, affidavits and other evidence of payment. The Subcontractor shall furnish to the Construction Manager appropriate releases and satisfactions from all sub-subcontractors, suppliers and other parties furnishing labor or materials in the performance of the Work. The Subcontractor shall maintain its accounts separately with each sub-subcontractor and will provide, upon the Construction Manager’s written request, a certified statement as to the payments received and payments made to any particular sub-subcontractor. The Construction Manager shall have the right to contact sub-subcontractors directly to ascertain (i) what amounts, if any, are due to them from the Subcontractor, (ii) the projected costs of completing their remaining portion of the Work, and (iii) the scope, amount and substance of any claims or disputes between them and the Subcontractor. To the extent any funds to be disbursed by the Construction Manager to the Subcontractor under this Agreement include sums payable by the Subcontractor to any sub-subcontractor, the Construction Manager may, at its election, disburse such sums to the Subcontractor by means of a check payable jointly to the Subcontractor and the applicable sub-subcontractor. Upon the Contractor’s receipt of evidence, or in the event that Contractor shall otherwise determine, that the Subcontractor shall be delinquent or shall have defaulted with respect to its obligations to make payments to any of its sub-subcontractors, or otherwise of any monies due and owing for labor, materials, supplies or equipment related to or incorporated in the Project, and if Contractor determines, in its sole but reasonable judgment, that it would be beneficial to, and in the interests of, the prosecution of the work of the Prime Agreement under the Contract Documents, the Contractor reserves the right, upon forty-eight (48) hours’ prior written notice to the Subcontractor (“Notice of Intention”), to retain any monies then due or thereafter becoming due to the Subcontractor under this Agreement and pay the same directly for labor, materials, equipment, tools, plant, facilities, services and all other obligations of the Subcontractor arising out of the Work. Any such payments may be by joint check, payable to Subcontractor and the person or entity to which the money is determined to be owed; provided, however, that if within forty-eight (48) hours after issuance of such Notice of Intention, Subcontractor submits evidence sufficient in Contractor’s sole judgment that there is a good faith dispute concerning said alleged delinquency and provides adequate assurances that the progress of the Work and the costs or time of performance of the work of the Prime Contract will not be adversely affected, Contractor will not exercise its rights as aforesaid.

If the Contractor declines to approve an Application for Payment, in whole or in part, the Contractor shall provide the Subcontractor with a statement describing generally the reasons for Contractor’s disapproval; provided, however, the Contractor’s failure to provide such statement to the Subcontractor shall not operate to waive the Contractor’s right to disapprove such Application for Payment, in whole or in part, or nullify any such disapproval.

The Contractor’s rights set forth herein are absolute, and are not dependent upon the ultimate validity of such lien, claim, suit, attachment, notice or encumbrance. Any amounts retained by Contractor, as aforesaid, shall not bear interest and need not be released to Subcontractor until the invalidity of such lien, claim, suit, attachment, notice or encumbrance has been conclusively determined by a tribunal of competent jurisdiction, or has been properly paid and satisfied and the documents evidencing such disposition have been presented to Contractor.

15.18 Subordination of Liens

15.18.1 To the extent not prohibited by law, the Subcontractor hereby subordinates all contractor’s, laborer’s, mechanic’s, materialmen’s and similar liens that it may have or acquire hereunder as to the Work to the liens securing payment of sums now or hereinafter borrowed by the Contractor.

15.20.1 The Subcontractor shall maintain accurate records, on a generally accepted accounting basis acceptable to the Contractor, of the items constituting the Subcontract Sum, the hours worked by the Subcontractor’s employees and personnel in the performance of the Work, the name and job title of such Subcontractor’s employees and personnel, and the compensation paid to it. Upon reasonable notice from the Contractor, these records shall be available at the Subcontractor’s office during business hours for review and copying by the Contractor and its representatives and employees.

15.20.2 In the event that an inspection of the Subcontractor’s records reveals any discrepancy or overpayment by the Contractor on account of the Subcontract costs paid pursuant to this Agreement, the Contractor shall, upon discovery of such discrepancy and demand for reimbursement, be repaid an amount equal to such overpayment along with interest thereon from the date of payment to Subcontractor at a rate of nine percent (9%) per annum.

15.21 Superseding Article 35-E of General Business Law of State of New York

15.21.1 It is the intention of the parties that, to the extent not prohibited by Article 35-E of the General Business Law of the State of New York, commonly known as the ‘Prompt Payment Act’ (the “Prompt Payment Act”), or otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall supersede the provisions of the Prompt Payment Act in their entirety and, accordingly, (i) the Prompt Payment Act shall not apply to this Agreement, and (ii) the absence of a provision in this Agreement covering any matter addressed in the Prompt Payment Act shall not be construed to mean that

Page 143: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

58

the parties have agreed that the applicable provision in the Prompt Payment Act shall govern with respect to that matter.

ARTICLE 16 - DISPUTES AND CLAIMS

16.1 Disputes between the Contractor and the Subcontractor

16.1.1 In consideration of and as a material inducement to the Construction Manager to enter into this Agreement, Subcontractor agrees that any Claim, as defined in Article 1, and any Dispute, as that term is defined in this Article 16, shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of Article 29 of the Prime Agreement and this Article 16. Subcontractor hereby agrees to submit to the dispute resolution procedures set forth therein and herein and that such procedures shall be the exclusive means for determining any Dispute, and consents to be joined in any mediation, arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution proceeding to which the Construction Manager or CUCF is a party concerning any such Dispute.

16.1.2. All claims, controversies or disputes Subcontractor may have in relation to this Agreement or the Work hereunder, including without limitation all claims, controversies or disputes a sub-subcontractor or a supplier to Subcontractor may have in relation to this Agreement, (each a “Dispute”), to the extent permitted by law, shall be resolved exclusively by the procedure set forth in this Article. Without limitation, this procedure covers Disputes concerning: (1) the scope of the Work related to this Agreement, (2) any direction given by CUCF or any governmental agency, (3) the performance by CUCF of its obligations under the Prime Agreement and/or by the Construction Manager of its obligations under this Agreement, (4) the interpretation of the Prime Agreement or of the Contract Documents, (5) if an amount, and what amount, if any, is to be paid for Work or Extra Work or disputed Work performed in connection with this Agreement, (6) every payment to and by Subcontractor, (7) the conformity of the Work with the Prime Agreement and this Agreement or the acceptability and quality of any portion or all of the Work, and (8) any combination of these. Independent of any other provision, time is of the essence to the procedures and to all time requirements set forth in this Article 16. Subcontractor hereby grants CUCF the right to resolve any claim, controversy, or dispute between or amongst CUCF, the Construction Manager and Subcontractor arising under or related to the Prime Agreement, this Agreement, or the Project, including, without limitation, the right of CUCF to resolve any of these by direct payment on behalf of Subcontractor to a sub-subcontractor or supplier to Subcontractor with a corresponding charge against Subcontractor’s balance under this Agreement.

16.1.3. The terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect during the period this dispute resolution procedure is being followed with respect to any Dispute. Subcontractor agrees to continue to perform its obligations hereunder during this period in accordance with this Agreement and as directed by the Construction Manager, including, without limitation, any and all matters covered by the Dispute. Failure of Subcontractor to continue without delay to discharge its obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, to perform any Work, disputed Work and Extra Work as directed, shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and a waiver by Subcontractor of each Dispute then under review in this procedure. Notwithstanding the requirements of Section 16.1, the Subcontractor acknowledges that a breach of its obligations under this Section 16.1 may cause irreparable harm to the Construction Manager and that there may be no adequate remedy at law available to the Construction Manager by reason of such breach. Accordingly, the Construction Manager shall be entitled to mandatory injunctive relief to enforce Subcontractor’s performance of its obligations hereunder.

16.1.4. During the investigations integral to this procedure, each party shall provide to the other party copies of all information that each provides in response to any requests for information made by the Executive Director of the Department of Design, Construction and Management of CUNY (the “Executive Director”) and by the Vice Chancellor for Facilities Planning, Construction and Management of CUNY (the “Vice Chancellor”).

16.1.5. In any event Subcontractor, either on its own behalf or on behalf of a sub-subcontractor or supplier, fails (a) to submit timely any Notice of Dispute, Dispute Report, Notice of Appeal, or any other information or document required or requested to be provided or (b) to attend without good cause any meeting it is required or requested to attend, pursuant to this procedure, its Dispute shall be deemed waived, and CUCF and the Construction Manager shall be deemed released of all liability for it.

Page 144: Bid Advertisement – Request for Bids (RFB) · The successful bidder will be responsible for all license s, permits, insurance and agency sign-offs for the duration of the contract.

59

16.1.6. As either may deem appropriate from time to time, the Executive Director and Vice Chancellor each may obtain technical and other expertise for assistance in evaluating the information related to a Dispute. Each may use mediation and select as a neutral mediator a CUNY employee, who is from a department or office not under the supervision of the Executive Director or Vice Chancellor, or hire a neutral mediator, who is not employed by CUCF or CUNY; Subcontractor agrees to pay the Construction Manager a proportionate share of any fee required to be paid by the Construction Manager to CUCF for the services of a mediator not employed by CUCF or CUNY. All mediation sessions shall be confidential and the parties agree that no mediation session may be the sole source of any information used in any other forum, such as litigation of the Dispute.

16.2 Commencement

Within ten (10) days of any act, omission or condition that gives rise to a Dispute, Subcontractor, both on its own behalf and on behalf of its sub-subcontractors and suppliers, must submit to the Construction Manager written notice of its Dispute. In each such notice, Subcontractor must identify (a) the date on which the Dispute arose, and (b) a brief description of it (with the elements specified in (a) and (b) hereof comprising a “Notice of Dispute”). Subcontractor may add other information it deems relevant. This notice requirement shall not replace any other notice requirement set forth in the Prime Agreement or in this Agreement. For cause, the Executive Director may extend in writing by no more than ten (10) business days the period within which Subcontractor may file the Notice of Dispute. The Construction Manager shall submit the Notice of Dispute to the Executive Director and may, in its sole discretion, elect to include or aggregate the Notice of Dispute, in whole or in part, with any dispute submitted by the Construction Manager to the Executive Director. An additional Dispute related in any fashion to an earlier Dispute that has been properly made must be initiated in full conformity with the requirements of this Section 16.2 and will be void unless submitted in such timely manner. The failure to provide written notice of a Dispute within the time provided for in this Section 16.2 shall render Subcontractor’s claims with respect to such Dispute void and preclude any later assertion thereof by the Subcontractor or any sub-subcontractor or vendor.

16.2.1 In the event of circumstances arising out of the Work which requires the Construction Manager to perform an investigation related to the Work that may give rise to a Dispute, Claim or potential Claim, and upon request of the Construction Manager, the Subcontractor shall do the following:

a. Provide full and immediate cooperation to the Construction Manager and its representatives who are charged with investigating the nature and circumstances of the claim or potential claim;

b. Produce all documents and materials in its possession as requested by the Construction Manager or its representatives;

c. Require all requested personnel (including those of sub-subcontractors) to provide their assistance with the investigation;

d. Assist the Construction Manager, experts, attorneys and other representatives of the Construction Manager during the course of the Investigation;

e. If requested, provide information pertaining to the investigation under oath;

f. Furnish such other documents or information that may be relevant to the investigation;

g. Assist in the investigation of the Design Professional or any other party performing services or providing work, labor or material in connection with the Project or the Work; and

h. If requested by the Construction Manager, attend any arbitration, mediation or litigation action or proceeding in connection with the Project, without need for the issuance of a subpoena unless one is ordered by a dispute resolution board or court of law.

16.2.2 Under no circumstances shall any of the obligations set forth in this Article 16 affect the Subcontractor’s duty to perform the Work in a professional manner. This Article 16 is solely intended to aid the

60

Construction Manager in the investigation of Disputes, Claims or potential Claims arising out of the Work and to facilitate the expeditious resolution of such Claims or potential Claims in order to ensure that the Work is completed in accordance with the Contract Documents.

16.3 Filing the Dispute

Within twenty (20) business days after submission of a Notice of Dispute to the Construction Manager, Subcontractor must submit to the Construction Manager an original and one copy (a) of a full written description of its Dispute, (b) of the resolution it requests, (c) of all documentation related to the Dispute, such as written orders from CUCF and the Construction Manager, and, as to any resolution that includes a payment of any sum, all supporting documentation that specifies the sum at issue and all computations required to arrive at the sum, and (d) of any other findings or decisions the Construction Manager asks CUCF and the Construction Manager to reach (with all of these elements comprising a “Dispute Report”). Subcontractor may add other information it deems relevant. For cause, the Executive Director and the Vice Chancellor may extend in writing by no more than ten (10) business days the period within which the Construction Manager may file the Dispute Report. The Construction Manager shall submit the Dispute Report to the Executive Director and may, in its sole discretion, elect to include or aggregate the Dispute Report, in whole or in part, with any dispute report submitted by the Construction Manager to the Executive Director.

16.4 Investigation, Meetings, and Notice of Appeal

16.4.1. After receipt of the Dispute Report, the Executive Director shall investigate it, may require additional information from CUCF staff, from the Construction Manager and from Subcontractor, and may convene meetings with the Construction Manager and/or Subcontractor, including any relevant sub-subcontractor, and CUCF staff to resolve the Dispute. The Executive Director may resolve the Dispute by negotiating terms acceptable to the Construction Manager, Subcontractor and CUCF (a “Negotiated Resolution”). The Executive Director shall put in writing any Negotiated Resolution to be executed by the Construction Manager, Subcontractor and CUCF. Alternatively, after completing this investigation of the Dispute, the Executive Director may issue written findings and resolve the Dispute unilaterally, without negotiation, in a written decision (a “Unilateral Resolution”) that CUCF shall send to the Construction Manager by certified mail, return receipt requested, and to the CUCF staff for implementation. The Construction Manager shall promptly furnish a copy of any Unilateral Determination to Subcontractor. Any Unilateral Resolution rendered by the Executive Director, and not timely appealed by Subcontractor pursuant to the procedure described below, shall be final and binding upon the parties, including Subcontractor and its sub-subcontractors and suppliers upon expiration of the tenth day after the Construction Manager receives any such Unilateral Resolution.

16.4.2. Subcontractor, on its own behalf and on behalf of a sub-subcontractor, may request that the Construction Manager submit an appeal if (a) the Executive Director is unable to reach a Negotiated Resolution or (b) Subcontractor receives a Unilateral Resolution with which Subcontractor disagrees. Subcontractor must commence any such appeal by submitting to the Construction Manager a written notice to be submitted to the Vice Chancellor requesting the Vice Chancellor to resolve the Dispute or to revise the Unilateral Resolution, as the case may be (“Notice of Appeal”). Subcontractor acknowledges that the Prime Agreement required the Construction Manager to file the Notice of Appeal within thirty (30) consecutive calendar days after the Executive Director receives the Dispute Report in the case of a failure to reach a Negotiated Resolution or, within ten (10) consecutive calendar days after the Construction Manager receives any Unilateral Resolution with which Subcontractor disagrees. Consequently, Subcontractor shall submit a Notice of Appeal pursuant to this paragraph to the Construction Manager in sufficient time to enable the Construction Manager to timely submit such Notice of Appeal to the Vice Chancellor, but in no event less than three (3) business days before the deadline for the Construction Manager to submit the Notice of Appeal to the Vice Chancellor. The Construction Manager shall have no responsibility for failure to timely deliver a Notice of Appeal to the Vice Chancellor if Subcontractor shall fail to deliver same to the Construction Manager within the time required by this paragraph.

16.5 Appeal

61

After submittal to the Vice Chancellor of the Notice of Appeal, the Vice Chancellor shall investigate the Dispute, may require additional information from CUCF staff, from the Construction Manager and from Subcontractor, and may convene meetings with the Construction Manager and Subcontractor, including any relevant sub-subcontractor, and CUCF staff to resolve the Dispute. The Vice Chancellor may resolve the Dispute by negotiating terms acceptable to the Construction Manager, Subcontractor and CUCF. The Vice Chancellor shall put in writing any such resolution to be executed by the Construction Manager and the CUCF. Alternatively, after completing this investigation of the Dispute, the Vice Chancellor may issue written findings and resolve the Dispute unilaterally, without negotiation, in a written final decision that CUCF shall provide to the Construction Manager and to the Executive Director for implementation, a copy of which shall be promptly furnished by the Construction Manager to Subcontractor. If the Vice Chancellor is unable to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) consecutive calendar days of receiving the Notice of Appeal or if within ten (10) consecutive calendar days after the Construction Manager receives from the Vice Chancellor a written final decision with which the Construction Manager disagrees, Subcontractor, on its own behalf and on behalf of its sub-subcontractors, agrees that its only remedy shall be an appeal pursuant to Article 78 of the Civil Practice Laws and Rules of the State of New York.

16.6 Claims and Actions Thereon 16.6.1 No claim by Subcontractor against Construction Manager, or, to the extent expressly permitted by the Prime Agreement, against CUCF for damages for breach of contract or compensation for Extra Work shall be made or asserted in any action or proceeding at law or in equity, unless Subcontractor shall have strictly complied with all requirements relating to the giving of notice and of information with respect to such claims as provided in this Agreement. The failure of Subcontractor to timely and strictly comply with the requirements of this Article 16, or any of the related requirements of the Prime Agreement, shall be conclusively deemed to be a waiver by Subcontractor of, and will relieve contractor of all responsibility to present or pay for, any such Claim or dispute.

16.6.2 No action or proceeding shall be instituted or maintained by Subcontractor on any claims unless such action or proceeding be commenced within six (6) months after the date of the filing of the final payment voucher pursuant to the Prime Agreement; except that an action or proceeding on a claim for moneys deducted, retained or withheld under the provisions of this Agreement or by law, must be commenced within six (6) months after the date of final payment hereunder or after such moneys become due and payable hereunder, whichever is later, and, further, except that an action or proceeding on a claim based upon the Director’s or Construction Manager’s exercise of the right to terminate this Agreement for cause must be commenced within six (6) months after the date on which this Agreement is so terminated for cause.

16.7 No claim whatsoever shall be made by Subcontractor against any officer, agent, or employee of the Construction Manager or CUCF for, or on account of, anything done or omitted to be done in connection with this Agreement. Subcontractor further agrees that it shall make no claim against CUCF, its officers, agents or employees, by reason of this Agreement, or any acts or omissions of the Construction Manager; provided however, such restrictions shall not apply to (a) demands filed by Subcontractor pursuant to Article 10.6 of the Prime Agreement, or (b) disputes submitted by Subcontractor pursuant to dispute resolution provisions contained in this Agreement.

h. Complete performance of such part of the Work as shall have been specified in the notice of termination to be completed by the Subcontractor prior to the effective date of such termination; and

19.1.10 Within seventy-five (75) calendar days after the date of a termination for convenience pursuant to this Article, Subcontractor shall submit a final requisition for payment and report made by a certified public accountant or a licensed public accountant, and, upon receipt by Construction Manager of such payment as may be due thereupon, as determined in accordance with the terms of the Prime Agreement, and subject to the Contractor’s right to withhold payments to the extent permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Construction Manager shall compensate Subcontractor for that portion of the performance, including reimbursements, and Extra Work satisfactorily performed prior and up to such termination date. Such amount shall be fixed by CUCF, after consultation with the Construction Manager, and shall be subject to audit by the Comptroller.

19.2 No Right of Termination by Subcontractor

19.2.1 Subcontractor agrees that it can be compensated adequately by money damages for any breach of the Agreement which may be committed by the Construction Manager. To the greatest extent permitted by law, therefore, Subcontractor agrees that no default, act or omission of CUCF or the Construction Manager shall constitute a material breach of the Agreement entitling Subcontractor to cancel or rescind the same or to suspend or abandon performance thereof; and Subcontractor hereby waives any and all rights and remedies to which it might otherwise be or become entitled to because of any wrongful act or omission of CUCF or the Construction Manager, saving only Subcontractor’s right to seek money damages determinable pursuant to the provisions of Article 29 of the Prime Agreement and this Agreement.

19.2.2 The sole liability of the Contractor to the Subcontractor under this Agreement or otherwise, subject to full and complete performance by the Subcontractor of its obligations under this Agreement, shall be payment of the portion of the Subcontract Fee due hereunder, and the Contractor shall have no liability to the Subcontractor for damages or charges of any kind.

20.1.1 The Owner and/or the Construction Manager may, at any time and for any reason, direct the Subcontractor to postpone, delay, or suspend the Project or any part thereof or all or any portion of the services to be performed by the Construction Manager under the Prime Agreement, which may include or affect all or any portion of the Work to be performed by Subcontractor hereunder. The Subcontractor shall resume the performance of the Work upon the date specified in such directive or upon such other date as the Owner and/or the Construction Manager may thereafter specify in writing.

20.1.2 With respect to any such postponement, delay, and suspension, Subcontractor shall be entitled only and exclusively to an extension of time, day for day, to cover the duration of the relevant period.

20.1.3 In the event of any such suspension, the Subcontractor shall, as part of its demobilization activities, secure the Project Site and protect the Work in such a manner that will best preserve the safety and security of the Project Site and the condition of the Work.

ARTICLE 23 - SUPPLIES, LABOR, SERVICES, MATERIALS AND TAX EXEMPTION

23.1 Subcontractor has been advised and acknowledges that CUCF is exempt from payment of Federal, State, local taxes and Sales and Compensating Use Taxes of the State of New York and of cities and counties on all materials and supplies sold to CUCF pursuant to the provisions of the Prime Agreement. These taxes are not to be included in requests for payment. However, this exemption does not apply to tools, machinery, equipment or other property leased by or to the Construction Manager or a Subcontractor, or to supplies and materials which, even though consumed, are not incorporated into the completed Work (consumable supplies), and Subcontractor shall be responsible for and pay any and all applicable taxes, including Sales and Compensating Use Taxes, on such leased tools, machinery, equipment or other property and upon all such unincorporated supplies and materials, which it may include in the relevant requisition for payment.

23.2 Subcontractor agrees to sell and Construction Manager agrees to purchase all supplies and materials, other than consumable supplies, required, necessary or proper for or incidental to the construction of the part of the Project covered by this Agreement. The sum paid under this Agreement for such supplies and materials shall be in full payment and consideration for the sale of such supplies and materials herein.

23.3 The purchase by Subcontractor and, through it, any sub-subcontractors of whatever tier, of the supplies and materials sold hereunder shall be a purchase or procurement for resale and therefore not subject to the New York State or New York City Sales or Compensating Use Taxes or any such taxes of cities or counties. The sale of such supplies and materials by Subcontractor to the Construction Manager for purposes of the Project is exempt from the aforesaid sales or compensating use taxes. With respect to such supplies and materials, Subcontractor, at the request of Construction Manager, shall furnish to Construction Manager such bills of sale and other instruments as may be required by it, properly executed, acknowledged and delivered assuring to CUCF title to such supplies and materials, free of liens or encumbrances, and Subcontractor shall mark or otherwise identify all such materials as the property of CUCF.

23.4 Ownership of all materials to be sold by Subcontractor to the Construction Manager pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement shall immediately vest in and become the sole property of CUCF upon delivery of such supplies and materials to the Site and prior to its becoming a part of the permanent structure. Notwithstanding such transfer of ownership, Subcontractor shall have the full and continuing responsibility to install such materials and supplies in accordance with the provisions of the Prime Agreement and this Agreement, protect them, maintain them in a proper condition and forthwith repair, replace and make good any damage thereto, theft or disappearance thereof, and furnish additional materials in place of any that may be lost, stolen or rendered unusable, without cost to Construction Manager or CUCF, until such time as the Work covered by the Prime Agreement is fully accepted by CUCF. Such transfer of ownership shall affect in no way any of Subcontractor’s obligations hereunder. In the event that, after Construction Manager takes ownership, any of such supplies and materials is rejected as being defective or otherwise unsatisfactory, ownership of all such supplies and materials shall be deemed to have been transferred to Subcontractor.

23.5 The purchase by any sub-subcontractors of whatever tier of supplies and materials to be sold hereunder shall also be a purchase or procurement for resale and therefore not subject to the aforesaid Sales or Compensating Use Taxes, provided that that subcontract agreements provide for the resale of such supplies and materials prior to and separate and apart from the incorporation of such supplies and materials into the permanent construction and that such subcontract agreements are in a form similar to this Agreement with respect to the separation of the sale of materials from the Work and labor, services, consumable supplies and any other matters to be provided, and provided further that the subcontract agreements provide separate prices for (l) materials and (2) all other services and matters. Such separation shall actually be followed in practice, including the separation of payments for supplies and materials from the payments for other Work and labor and other things to be provided.

23.7 In the event any of the provisions of this Article 23 shall be deemed to be in conflict with any other provisions of the Prime Agreement or this Agreement, or create any ambiguity, then the provision of this Article shall control.

ARTICLE 24 - MONEY RETAINED AGAINST CLAIMS

24.1 If any claim shall be made by any person, firm or corporation against CUCF, the Construction Manager, Subcontractor or any combination of them: (l) for an alleged loss, damage or injury of the kind referred to in Article 15 of the Prime Agreement which, in the opinion of the Director or the Construction Manager, may not be covered by the general liability insurance policy required to be furnished by Subcontractor hereunder, or, which, together with previously filed claims, is in excess of the amount payable under such policies; or (2) for an infringement of copyrights or patents or use of patented articles, tools, etc.; or (3) for damage claimed to have been caused directly or indirectly by the failure of Subcontractor to perform the Work in strict accordance with this Agreement: the amount of such claim, or so much thereof as he may deem necessary, may be withheld by the Construction Manager as security against such claims, from any money due hereunder, until such time as the commencement of an action thereon would be barred by law or until final adjudication of such action by a court of competent jurisdiction. Subject to the prior approval and at the sole option of the Construction Manager, Subcontractor may substitute other satisfactory security in lieu of the moneys so withheld.

24.2 If no action is commenced upon any such claim within the time limited thereof by law, the Construction Manager, upon written demand by Subcontractor, shall return the amount so withheld without interest.

24.3 If an action on such claim is timely commenced and the liability of the Construction Manager, Subcontractor, or both, shall have been established therein by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or if such claim shall have been admitted by Subcontractor to be valid, the Construction Manager shall pay such judgment or admitted claim out of the moneys retained under the provisions of this Article, and return the balance, if any, without interest, to Subcontractor.

24.4 Liens: If any time before or within thirty (30) days after the whole Work herein agreed to be performed is completed and accepted by CUCF, any persons claiming to have performed any labor or furnished any material toward the performance or completion of this Agreement shall file with CUCF any notice as is described in the Lien Law, or any act of the Legislature of the State of New York, the Construction Manager shall retain, from the moneys due or to become due under this Agreement, so much of such moneys as shall be sufficient for the Construction Manager to pay the amount claimed in said notice, together with its reasonable costs of any action or actions, including, without limitation, its legal fees and related costs, brought or that may be brought to enforce such Lien. The moneys so retained shall be held by the Construction Manager until the Lien thereon created by the said act and the filing of the said notice shall be discharged pursuant to law.

ARTICLE 25 - NO DISCRIMINATION

25.1.1 That in the hiring of employees for the performance of Work under this Agreement or any sub-subcontract hereunder, neither Subcontractor, its sub-subcontractor(s) nor any person acting on behalf of Subcontractor or such sub-subcontractor(s), shall by reason of race, creed, color or national origin discriminate against any citizen of the State of New York who is qualified and available to perform the Work to which the employment relates;

(b) Subcontractor shall not commence the Work until Subcontractor has furnished two copies of certificates of insurance in a form satisfactory to Owner and the Contractor evidencing that Subcontractor has obtained insurance in accordance with this Exhibit.

If a certificate expires, a renewal certificate is required before any employee is allowed on the Project Site.

If an Additional Insured has other insurance applicable to the loss, it will be on an excess or contingent basis. Neither Subcontractor’s obligation to provide insurance nor the scope of such insurance coverage shall be reduced by the existence of such other insurance.

(g) All of Subcontractor’s insurance policies required herein shall include clauses stating that each underwriter will waive all rights of recovery, under subrogation or otherwise, against the Additional Insureds, including the Contractor, the Owner, Owner’s property manager, Owner’s lender and their directors, officers, representatives, agents, and employees and all tiers of Subcontractors or consultants engaged by them. The Subcontractor will require similar written waivers from all Sub-subcontractors on behalf of all parties enumerated in this section.
