contest any claims of lien in good faith, provided that, as a
condition precedent to any such contest, Contractor shall first post
surety bonds or other security as required by and acceptable to Owner,
in order to remove any such lien or claim as a cloud upon the title to
the Work and /or the Property. In the event any such contest should
impair Owner's right, title or interest in the Work or the Property,

without liability or obligation to Contractor, and to offset and
deduct any such payment, together with costs and expenses incurred in
connection therewith, against the Contract Price. In the event all

obligations for Work, labor, services, equipment or materials,
together with an affidavit of Contractor that such releases, receipts
or other documents include all costs, expenses and indebtedness
connected with the Work for which a lien might be filed or for which
Owner and /or the Property might in any way be responsible. Contractor
shall, in the event any Subcontractor refuses to furnish a release or
receipt in full, furnish a bond satisfactory to Owner to indemnify
Owner against any claim by lien or otherwise. In the event that any
lien or claim remains unsatisfied after final payment is made to
Contractor under this Contract, Owner reserves the right to make
payment of any such contested amounts without liability or obligation
to Contractor, and Contractor shall immediately upon demand, repay to
Owner any amount that Owner pays or incurs in discharging such lien or
claim, including costs.

3.12.1 If any part of Contractor's Work depends on the proper
execution or results of the work of any other contractor, Contractor
shall inspect and promptly report any discrepancies or defects in such
other work that renders it unsuitable for proper execution and
results. Failure of Contractor to so inspect and report shall
constitute an acceptance by Contractor of the other contractors' work
for all purposes, including, without limitation, acknowledgement that
the contractors' work is fit and proper for the reception o
Contractor's Work, except as to hidden defects which manifest.

Order without notice to sureties, if necessary, by the number of
working days of delay on the Critical Path of the Work actually and
directly caused by such occurrence. Contractor shall provide a
Critical Path analysis of such delay claim which clearly identifies
the effect of such delay on any Critical Path activities. Such
extension of Contract Time shall be net of any delays caused by or due
to the fault or negligence of the Contractor or which are otherwise
the responsibility of the Contractor or its agents or Subcontractors,
and shall also be net of any contingency or "float" time allowance
included in the Progress Schedule. Owner may, at its option,
authorize extra Work in order to accelerate the Schedule and minimize
or eliminate the impact of the delay. No extension shall be made or
allowed nor shall such extra Work be authorized unless a written
request therefor by Contractor is made within five (5) calendar days
after the first occurrence of the delay. Any claims of the Contractor
relating to time shall be made promptly in accordance with applicable
provisions of Article 7 otherwise they shall be deemed waived.
Whenever the Contractor knows or reasonably suspects that any actual
or potential labor dispute is delaying or threatens to delay the
timely performance of the Work, Contractor shall immediately give
notice thereof, including all relevant information with respect
thereto, to Architect and Owner. In the case of a continuing cause of
delay only one request shall be necessary, which request shall
affirmatively state that the delay is a continuing one and the reasons
therefor. All delay requests hereunder shall describe the nature of
the delay and estimate its probable effect on the progress of the
Work. The effect of any delay shall also be shown on the latest
Progress Schedule. All extensions of Time for completion of the Work,
or requests for acceleration on account of a delay permitted hereunder
must be evidenced by a written Change Order approved by Owner. The
Contractor shall, in the event of any occurrence likely to cause a
delay, cooperate in good faith with the Owner to minimize and mitigate
the impact of any such occurrence and do all things reasonable under
the circumstances to achieve scheduled completion dates. Contractor
• shall advise and consult with Owner in connection with any delay and
its effect on the Progress Schedule and shall take such action on
Owner's behalf with respect thereto as Owner may request in accordance

referred to in this Section 4.3.6 as "Delays "), or any loss, cost,
damage or expense of any kind, including, but not limited to
consequential damages, lost opportunity costs, impact damages or other
similar remuneration, which may arise out of or be caused by any delay
in the Work from any cause or any extensions of the Contract Time
hereunder, whether or not such Delays are foreseeable. Contractor ex-
pressly waives any right to claim such loss, cost, damage or expense
on account thereof. Owner's exercise of any of its rights under the
Agreement, including, without limitation, its rights under Article 7,

exercise of any of its remedies to suspend or stop the Work, or
requiring the correction or re- execution of any defective Work, shall
not under any circumstances be construed as intentional interference
with or delay of Contractor's performance of the Work.
4.3.5 ACCELERATION In the event of an excusable delay which extends
scheduled completion dates despite diligent efforts by the Contractor,
and in lieu of granting an extension of Time, the Owner, at its
discretion, may direct the Contractor to accelerate its performance to
meet the Progress Schedule, in which case the Owner shall issue a
Change Order to increase the Contract Sum to include the additional
cost of the Work, if any, reasonably incurred by the Contractor to
meet the Progress Schedule. The Owner shall only be responsible for
the actual premium costs of acceleration specifically authorized in
advance for a critical activity in order to offset an excused delay.
The Owner shall not be responsible for premium costs which do not
accelerate Critical Path activities. The amount of such costs shall
be documented in and authorized by a written Change Order and shall
not include fee markups unless the Contractor can substantiate
increased overhead costs. No formulas shall be used in computing any
costs under section 4.3.6.

for Construction, to the extent and in such form as may be designated
by the Owner and the Owner's lender; and (6), evidence of compliance

unsatisfied after payments are made, the Contractor shall refund to
the Owner all money that the Owner may be compelled to pay in
discharging such lien, including all costs.

compensation for the Architect's services and expenses made necessary
thereby.
13.2.2 If, within one (1) year after the date of Final Completion of
the entire Work, or within such longer period of time as may be
prescribed by laws or in equity or by terms of an applicable special
warranty required by the Contract Documents, any of the Work is found

after receipt of written notice from the Owner to do so unless the
Owner has previously given the Contractor a written acceptance of
CON MAS:GCSHTMII.MAS

General Conditions (Short Form) - Construction Contracts
such condition. Corrective Work shall be warranted to be free fror
defects for a period equal to the longer of six (6) months after the
completion of the corrective Work or one (1) year after the Date of
Final Completion or such longer period of time as may be prescribed by
law or in equity, or expiration of the term of any applicable special

nonconforming Work within the time period set forth in Paragraph 2.3,
the Owner may correct it in accordance with Paragraph 2.3. If the
Contractor does not proceed with correction of such defective or

laws or in equity.

the Work which is defective or otherwise not in accordance with the
requirements of the Contract Documents, the Owner may do so instead of
requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum
will be reduced as appropriate and equitable as determined by Owner in
good faith. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final
payment has been made.
