CM@Risk may be responsible and/or liable.

2.13 Correction of Defective Work

2.13.1 CM@Risk agrees to correct any Work that is not in conformance with the
Contract Documents, including that part of the Work subject to Section 2.12 above, within a
period of one year from the date of Final Acceptance of the Work, or within such longer
period to the extent required by the Contract Documents. A progress payment, or partial or
entire use or occupancy of the Project by the City, shall not constitute acceptance of Work
not in accordance with the Contract Documents.

2.13.2 CM@Risk shall take immediate steps to commence correction of
nonconforming Work, subject to Section 2.12 above, within fourteen calendar days of
receipt of written notice from City in accordance with MAG Specifications. This includes the
correction, removal or replacement of the nonconforming Work and any damage caused to
other parts of the Work affected by the nonconforming Work. If defects develop which are
determined by the City to be an emergency, the City shall notify the CM@Risk, via the most
expeditious means regarding the nature and condition of the defects. In turn, the CM@Risk
shall immediately dispatch necessary forces to correct the defect or the emergency
condition in accordance with MAG Specifications.

2.13.3 The one year period referenced in Division 2.13.1 above applies only to
CM@Risk’s obligation to correct nonconforming Work and is not intended to constitute a
period of limitations for any other rights or remedies that the City may have regarding
CM@Risk’s other obligations under the Contract Documents.

2.13.4 The failure of City to discover or detect noncompliance by CM@Risk with the
Contract Documents shall not relieve the obligation of CM@Risk to comply with the
Contract Documents and to correct any defective work or work not in compliance with the
Contract Documents, at CM@Risk’s sole cost and expense. The City’s approval of the
Project, or any part thereof, shall not constitute a waiver of the City’s right to require the

12

CM@Risk to correct any Work subsequently found or determined not to be in compliance
with the Contract Documents.

2.14 Contractor Labor Requirements

The CM@Risk shall insure that all employees have a legal right to live and Work in the
United States. Upon request by the City of El Mirage, a copy of the Birth Certificate,
Certificate of Naturalization, Immigration Card, or Special Entry Permit shall be provided to
the City Engineer. In addition, employee compensation shall meet all applicable
requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and Federal Minimum Wage Laws.

2.15 CM@Risk Self Perform

(Applies to Horizontal Projects only) CM@Risk shall perform, with the CM@Risk’s own
organization, construction Work that amounts to not less than forty-five percent of the total
contract price for construction. For the purposes of this paragraph, the total contract price
for construction does not include the cost of preconstruction services, design services or
any other related services or the cost to procure any right-of-way of other cost of
condemnation.

Article 3 - City’s Services and Responsibilities
3.1 City’s Representative and Inspector

3.1.1 City’s Representative is responsible for providing City-supplied information and
approvals in a timely manner to assist CM@Risk to fulfill its obligations under the Contract
Documents.

3.1.2 City’s Representative will also provide CM@Risk with prompt notice if it
observes any failure on the part of CM@Risk to fulfill its contractual obligations, including
any default or defect in the project or non-conformance with the drawings and
specifications.

3.1.3 The City may utilize field inspectors to assist the City’s Representative during
construction in observing performance of the CM@Risk. The inspector is for the purpose of
assisting the City’s Representative and should not be confused with an inspector with a
regulatory agency.

3.1.3.1 The inspector is authorized to inspect all Work and materials furnished. Such
inspection may extend to all or part of the Work and to the preparation, fabrication or
manufacture of the materials to be used.

3.1.3.2 The inspector is not authorized to issue instructions contrary to the Construction
Documents or to act as foremen for the CM@Risk.

3.1.3.3 The inspector shall have the authority to reject Work or materials until any
questions at issue can be decided by the City’s Representative.

3.1.3.4 The furnishing of an inspector by the City shall not make the City responsible for
or give the City control over construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or
procedures or for safety precautions or programs or responsibility for the CM@Risk’s failure
to perform the Work in accordance with Contract Documents.

13

3.2 Design Professional Services

The City may contract separately with one or more Design Professionals to provide
construction administration of the project. The Design Professional's contract as well as
other firms hired by the City shall be furnished to the CM@Risk. The CM@Risk shall not
have the right to limit or restrict or reject any contract modifications that are mutually
acceptable to the City and Design Professional.

3.3 City’s Separate Contractors

City is responsible for all Work performed on the Project or at the Site by separate
contractors under City’s control. City shall contractually require its separate contractors to
cooperate with, and coordinate their activities so as not to interfere with, CM@Risk in order
to enable CM@Risk to timely complete the Work consistent with the Contract Documents.

3.4 Permit Review and Inspections

3.4.1 If requested by the CM@Risk, the City’s Representative will provide assistance
and guidance in obtaining necessary reviews, permits and inspections.

3.4.2 The regulating agencies of the City, such as Public Works, Fire, and Planning

Departments, enforce Legal Requirements. The enforcement activities of the City are
independent and separate from this Agreement.

Article 4 - Contract Time

41 Contract Time

4.1.1 Contract Time shall start with the Notice to Proceed (NTP) and end with Final
Acceptance. The Notice to Proceed shall not require CM@Risk to commence with
construction Work prior to CM@Risk’s receipt of the required permit(s) or recipe of the
executed Construction Contract.

4.1.2 Contract Time for the Agreement shall be two hundred sixty-two (262)
consecutive calendar days starting with the Notice to Proceed. Contract Time shall be for
the completion of the Work.

4.1.3 CM@Risk agrees that it will commence performance of the Work and achieve
the Contract Time.

4.1.4 All of the times set forth in this Article 4 shall be subject to adjustment in
accordance with Article 6.

4.2 Final Acceptance

Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance, City
and CM@Risk will jointly inspect to verify that the remaining items of Work have been
completed. There shall be no partial acceptance. Final Acceptance shall not be issued until
all items of Work, including punch list items, have been completed to the City’s satisfaction.

4.3 Liquidated Damages

4.3.1 For this project, time is of the essence. Therefore, there will be liquidated
damage assessment made for each calendar day the project is not completed after the

14

specified completion date. For each and every calendar day that Work shall remain
incomplete after the time specified for the completion of the Work in the GMP, or as
adjusted by the City, the sum per MAG Section 108.9, per calendar day, shall be deducted
from monies due to the CM@Risk, not as a forfeit or penalty, but as liquidated damages
and added expenses including administrative, inspectors’ cost and loss of facility revenue.
This sum is fixed and agreed upon between the parties, because the actual loss to the City
caused by delay in completion will be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain and
determine.

4.3.2 Final Acceptance means the completion of all items of Work, including punch
list items subject to Section 4.2.

4.3.3 Permitting the CM@Risk to continue and finish the Work or any part of it after
the time fixed for its completion, or after the date to which the time fixed for its completion
may have been extended, does not operate as a waiver by the City of any rights under this
contract.

4.3.4 The CM@Risk acknowledges and agrees to the amount of liquidated damages,
specified in Section 4.3.1.

4.3.5 Nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of damages mutually
agreed upon by the Parties as liquidated damages in this Article 4.3, and excluding losses
covered by insurance required by the Contract Documents. City and the CM@Risk agree to
waive all claims against each other for any consequential damages that may arise out of or
relate to this Contract. City agrees to waive consequential damages including but not limited
to the City's for loss of use of the Project, any rental expenses incurred, loss of income,
profit or financing related to the Project, as well as the loss of business, loss of financing,
loss of profits not related to this Project, loss of reputation, or insolvency. The CM@Risk
agrees to waive consequential damages including but not limited to for loss of business,
loss of financing, principal office overhead and expenses, loss of profits not related to this
Project, loss of bonding capacity, loss of reputation, or insolvency. The provisions of this
section shall also apply to the termination of this Contract and shall survive such
termination.

4.4 Project Schedule

4.4.1 The Project Schedule approved as part of a GMP shall be updated and
maintained throughout the Work.

4.4.2 The Project Schedule shall be revised as required by conditions and progress of
the Work, but such revisions shall not relieve CM@Risk of its obligations to complete the
Work within the Contract Time, as adjusted in accordance with the Contract Documents.

4.4.3 An updated Project Schedule shall be submitted monthly to the City as part of
the Payment Request. The monthly submittal shall include one full size plot of the entire
schedule and one computer disk containing the schedule in a format acceptable to the City.

4.44 CM@Risk shall provide City with a monthly status report with each Project
Schedule detailing the progress of the Work, including: (i) if the Work is proceeding
according to schedule, (ii) any discrepancies, conflicts, or ambiguities found to exist in the
Contract Documents that require resolution, and (iii) other information detailing items that
require resolution so as not to jeopardize the ability to complete the Work as presented in
the GMP and within the Contract Time.

4.4.5 With each Project Schedule submittal, the CM@Risk shall include a transmittal
letter including the following:

15

e Description of problem tasks, referenced to field instructions or requests for
information (RFI’s), as appropriate

e Current and anticipated delays including:
e Cause of the delay
e Corrective action and schedule adjustments to correct the delay
e Known or potential impacts and their delay on other activities, milestones,
and their impact date of Final Completion
e Changes in construction sequence

e Pending items and status thereof including but not limited to:
e Time Extension requests
e Other items

e Final Completion date status:
e If ahead of schedule, the number of calendar days ahead
e If behind schedule, the number of calendar days behind

e Other Project or scheduling concerns.

446 City’s review of and response to the Project Schedule serves to ensure for
general conformance with the scheduling requirements of the Contract Documents. The
review shall not relieve the CM@Risk from compliance with the requirements of the
Contract Documents or be construed as relieving the CM@Risk of its complete and
exclusive control over the means, methods, sequences and techniques for executing the
Work.

4.4.7 The Project Schedule shall include a Critical Path Method (CPM) diagram
schedule showing the sequence of activities, the interdependence of each activity and
identifies the Critical Path.

44.8 The CPM diagram schedule shall be in Days and indicate duration, earliest and
latest start and finish dates for all activities, and total Float times for all activities except
critical activities. The CPM diagram shall be presented in a time scaled graphical format for
the Project as a whole.

4.4.9 The CPM diagram schedule shall indicate all relationships between activities.

4.4.10 The activities making up the schedule shall contain sufficient detail to assure
that adequate planning has been done for proper execution of the Work and such that it
provides an appropriate basis for monitoring and evaluating the progress of the Work.

4.4.11 The CPM diagram schedule shall be based upon activities, which coincide with
the schedule of values.

4.412 The CPM diagram schedule shall show all submittals associated with each
Work activity and the review time for each submittal.

4.4.13 The project schedule shall show milestones, including milestones for Owner-
furnished information, and shall include activities for Owner-furnished material and
construction by other contractors when those activities are interrelated with the CM@Risk
activities.

16

4.4.14 The Project Schedule shall consider the City’s and the tenants’ use of portions
of the Project during Contract Time and prior to Final Acceptance.

4.4.15 Float time shall be as prescribed below:

4.4.15.1 The total Float time within the overall schedule, is not for the exclusive use of
either the City or the CM@Risk, but is jointly owned by both and is a resource available to
and shared by both parties as needed to meet contract milestones and the Project
completion date.

4.4.15.2 | The CM@Risk shall not sequester shared Float time through such strategies as
extending activity duration estimates to consume available Float, using preferential logic, or
using extensive crew/resource sequencing, etc. Since Float time within the schedule is
jointly owned, no time extensions will be granted nor delay damages paid until a delay
occurs which extends the Work beyond the Contract Time.

4.4.15.3 Since Float time within the schedule is jointly owned, it is acknowledged that
City-caused delays on the Project may be offset by City-caused time savings (i-e., critical
path submittals returned in less time than allowed by the contract, approval of substitution
requests and credit changes which result in savings of time to the CM@Risk, etc.). In such
an event, the CM@Risk shall not be entitled to receive a time extension or delay damages
until all City-caused time savings are exceeded and the Contract Time is also exceeded.

Article 5 - Contract Price

5.1 General

The CM@Risk agrees at his own proper cost and expense, to do all Work as aforesaid for
the construction of said improvements and to completely construct the same and install the
material therein, as called for by this Agreement free and clear of all claims, liens, and
charges whatsoever, in the manner and under the conditions specified within the time, or
times, stated in the approved Guaranteed Maximum Price.

5.2 Contract Price

5.2.1 The Contract Price will be as approved in the Guaranteed Maximum Price
proposal attached as Exhibit “C” an amount of Two Million, One Hundred Fifty Thousand
Dollars ($2,150,000) plus Owner's Contingency as described in Section 5.2.3 below, the
sum of which will be the full contract price for construction.

5.2.2 Guaranteed Maximum Price is composed of the following not-to-exceed lump
sum amounts defined below. The CMV@Risk is at risk to cover any additional Project costs;
excluding Owner's Contingency.

§.2.2.1 The Cost of the Work is actual costs and is a not-to-exceed reimbursable
amount.

§.2.2.2 The General Conditions costs and the Construction Fee are firm fixed lump
sums.

5.2.2.3 CM@Risk’s Contingency is an amount the CM@R may use under the following
conditions: (1) at its discretion to cover costs that have not been identified as a trade
specific scope on the GMP setting documents and may require further clarification or
coordination. These costs may include scope gap, coordination issues between trades, and

17

cost growth during the project, or (2) with written approval of the City for increases in
General Condition Costs. CM@R’s Contingency is assumed to be a direct project cost and,
therefore, shall and shall be assumed to have received all markups at the time of GMP
submission. Construction Contingency does not account for design revisions or additional
scope requests made by the City or Design Professional.

5.2.2.3.1 At the time that CM@Risk’s Contingency is used by the CM@Risk, the
appropriate markups for overhead and profit will be applied.

§.2.2.3.2 | When the CM@Risk utilize CM@Risk’s Contingency funds, the CM@Risk shall
make the appropriate changes to the schedule of values with the next regular progress
payment request. The CM@Risk shall deduct the amount of CM@Risk’s Contingency funds
used from the CM@Risk’s Contingency line item and adding the same amount to the line
item on the schedule of values where the funds were used. If the CM@Risk’s Contingency
funds are used for a new line item that was not given with the original schedule of values,
that will be so indicated.

§.2.2.3.3 Any portion of the CM@Risk’s Contingency not utilized after Final Acceptance of
the project shall be retained by the City.

5.2.2.4 Taxes are deemed to include all sales, use, consumer and other taxes which
are legally enacted when negotiations of the GMP were concluded, whether or not yet
effective or merely scheduled to go into effect. Taxes are actual costs and are a firm fixed
lump sum.

5.2.3 Owner's Contingency funds are to be used at the sole discretion of the City.
Owner’s Contingency will be added to the Contract Price for approval by Council to cover
any increases in Project costs that result from City directed changes or unforeseen site
conditions. Owner's Contingency will be added to the GMP amount provided by the
CM@Risk, the sum of which will be the full contract price for construction. At the time that
Owner's Contingency is used, the appropriate markups per section 12 will be applied.

5.2.4 The GMP is subject to adjustments made in accordance with Article 6 and by
Change Orders to this Agreement.

5.2.4.1 GMP Change Orders are cumulative except for contingency.
5.2.4.2 If the GMP requires an adjustment due to changes in the Work, the cost of such
changes is determined subject to Article 6. The markups that shall be allowed on such

changes shall be no greater than the markups delineated in Article 6.6.

Article 6 - Changes to the Contract Price and Time

6.1 Delays to the Work

Delays and damages shall be determined in accordance with MAG Standard Specifications
Section 108.9. In addition if CM@Risk is delayed at any time in the commencement or
progress of the Work by any cause beyond the control of CM@Risk, CM@Risk shall be
entitled to an equitable extension of the Date of Final Completion, and related overhead and
expenses. Examples of causes beyond the control of CM@Risk include, but are not limited
to, the following: (a) acts or omissions of City or Design Professional; (b) changes in the
Work or the sequencing of the Work ordered by City, or arising from decisions of City that
impact the time of performance of the Work; (c) encountering Hazardous Materials, or
concealed or unknown conditions; (d) transportation delays not reasonably foreseeable; (e)
labor disputes not involving CM@Risk; (f) disruptions in labor or materials resulting from a
