ARTICLE 1
THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
|
|
The Contract Documents consist
of this Agreement, Conditions of the Contract (General,
Supplementary and other Conditions), Drawings, (including design
development and construction/bid sets). Specifications, Addenda to
Drawings, if any, issued prior to execution of this Agreement,
other documents listed in this Agreement and Modifications issued
after execution of this Agreement; these form the Contract, and are
as fully a part of the Contract as if attached to this Agreement or
repeated herein. The Contract represents the entire and integrated
agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes prior
negotiations, representations or agreements, either written or
oral. An enumeration of the Contract Documents, other than
Modifications, appears in Article 15. If anything in the other
Contract Documents is inconsistent with this Agreement, this
Agreement shall govern. The parties acknowledge and agree that,
notwithstanding the effective date of this Agreement, this
Agreement will actually be executed some time after such effective
date and, therefore, this Agreement incorporates changes in the
Design Documents (as defined in the General Conditions) and
correspondence between the Owner and Architect reflecting changes
to Architect’s scope and/or Owner’s program after the
effective date and prior to December 5, 2003 (as enumerated in
Article 15 hereof). Further changes made after December 5, 2003
will be effective only if memorialized in a Change Order signed by
Architect, Owner and Contractor and expressly intended to modify
this Agreement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Contractor acknowledges that
since all or a portion of the Drawings and Specifications have not
as yet received the approval of all appropriate tribal or other
governmental agencies, they are not final. Contractor agrees to use
its best efforts in assisting Architect, the other design
consultants for the Project and Owner to develop final and complete
Drawings and Specifications consistent with any requirements that
may be made by the appropriate tribal or other governmental
agencies in connection with their approvals, consistent with the
intent of the Contract Documents and within the Guaranteed Maximum
Price hereinafter specified. Furthermore, Contractor shall develop
such unit price breakdowns and schedules as Owner or Architect may
reasonably require. In that regard and subject to Scope Changes as
contemplated in subparagraph 5.2.6.1.1 hereof that are not
reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents in their present
state, variances between One Hundred Percent (100%) completed and
permittable Drawings and Specifications and the Contract Documents
shall in no event result in an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum
Price or an extension of Scheduled Completion Date (as those terms
are hereinafter defined), provided that the Project schedule is not
impacted by any delay(s) in the completion of the Drawings, the
Specifications and the Contract Documents.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the event of conflict
between the provisions of the Contract Documents, Owner shall
specify which provision shall prevail in each instance (except that
the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail over all other
Contract Documents).

2.1
The
Contractor shall perform, or cause to be performed, the entire Work
of construction and construction related services required by the
Contract Documents to complete the Project in accordance with the
Contract Documents, except to the extent specifically indicated in
the Contract Documents to be the responsibility of others. In
connection therewith, Contractor shall provide all materials, labor
and equipment, supervision, services, tools, construction
equipment, transportation, expertise and subcontracted items
required for the construction of the Project in accordance with the
Contract Documents and consistent with Paragraph 3.6 of the General
Conditions. All Contract Documents are intended to be cooperative
and complimentary so that any Work called for in one Contract
Document and not mentioned in the other is to be executed the same
as in the other. The Work includes and contractor shall perform all
things reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents as being
necessary to produce the intended results for the completion of the
Work. The standard of quality for all materials used in the
construction work to be performed by Contractor shall be equal or
comparable to that quality identified in the Design Development
Drawings, Specifications and Construction Drawings completed to
date and in existing construction.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2.2
Contractor and
Owner acknowledge and agree that this is a “fast track”
project and that all information necessary to construct this
Project has not been delivered to Contractor and such information
will be delivered to Contractor, Contractor and Owner further
acknowledge an agree that the Work may be constructed out of
sequence and such out of sequence construction shall not, in
itself, constitute any reason for Contractor not to complete the
Work on a timely basis in accordance with the completion schedule
anticipated for the Project, provided that such out of sequence
Work does not at such time materially adversely affect the critical
path of construction. Any changes to the proposed completion
schedule, if necessary, shall be identified promptly. Contractor
further acknowledges that the layout, use, location, and/or design
of certain aspects of the Project may materially change. All of
such changes, other than items resulting from value engineering
efforts or changes in scope, shall not affect the terms of the
Contract Documents and the performance of Contractor
hereunder.

Notwithstanding
the foregoing provisions of this Subparagraph to the contrary,
Owner shall have the right to deduct from the Contract Documents by
Change Order any of the Work covered by any allowance or allowances
itemized in Contractor’s Proposal. Upon such deduction, the
Guaranteed Maximum Price will be reduced by the amount of the
allowance or allowances which may be so deducted.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

Any
adjustment in the Cost of Work resulting from the application of
this Subparagaph 5.2.4, shall also result in an adjustment to the
Contractor’s Fee in accordance with the terms of Subparagraph
5.1.2. hereof.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.2.5 Assumptions, if
any, on which the Guaranteed Maximum Price is based are as
follows: to be established in the Guaranteed Maximum Price
and attached hereto at Exhibit “5.2.5”, and which
Contractor acknowledges to be all of the assumptions that
Contractor needed to make concerning the Work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.2.6 To the extent that
the Drawings and Specifications are anticipated to require further
development by the Architect, the Contractor has provided in the
Guaranteed Maximum Price for such further development consistent
with the Contract Documents and reasonably inferable therefrom.
Such further development does not include such things as changes in
scope, systems, kinds and quality of materials, finishes or
equipment, all of which, if required, shall be incorporated by
Change Order.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.2.6.1
The
Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be adjusted for Scope Changes (as
defined in Subparagraph 5.2.6.1.1 hereof) which are specifically
requested by and approved by the Owner through a written Change
Order authorized in accordance with the requirements of the
Contract Documents. When the Final Documents are prepared, the
Owner and the Contractor shall negotiate in good faith to reach
agreement on a Change Order adjusting the Guaranteed Maximum Price
for Scope Changes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.1
A
“Scope Change” shall mean Work described in the Final
Documents which is not reasonably inferable by a contractor
possessing a high level of skill, experience and expertise as the
Contractor as necessary or prudent for the proper, timely and
orderly completion of the Work based upon the Preliminary
Documents, other Contract Documents, materials and information
furnished the Contractor as of the date of this Agreement and the
ongoing discussions and meetings between the Contractor, Owner, and
Architect (which have described the scope, quality, construction
requirements and design intent of the Work), and which constitutes
a material change in the quantity, quality, programmatic
requirements or other substantial deviation from the Preliminary
Documents.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5.2.7
The
Guaranteed Maximum Price will contain a separately identified
contingency factor (the “Contingency”). The Contingency
is not allocated to any particular item of the Cost of the Work,
and is established for the Contractor’s use as may be
required for costs incurred in the Work (including impact and delay
costs) resulting from (i) conditions reasonably unforeseen at the
time of execution of this Agreement and (ii) excusable,
non-compensable delays (as described in Subparagraph 4.4 hereof or
Subparagraph 8.3 of the General Conditions). The Contractor may
utilize the Contingency for any items within the Cost of the Work
and without resulting in any change in the Guaranteed Maximum
Price, provided that offsets against the Contingency shall be
documented and approved in writing by Owner prior to proceeding
with the Work associated with use of Contingency dollars. As Bid
Packages are awarded or as savings are realized as a result of
value engineering, all savings will accrue to the benefit of Owner
or be offset in a cost category “Gain or Loss on
Buyout” (i.e., deductive or additive) to the Cost of Work and
shall be used in its entirety before Contractor uses the
Contingency, and any savings shall be reflected in a deductive
Change Order evidencing a reduction in the Guaranteed Maximum
Price.

ARTICLE 6
CHANGES IN THE WORK
|
|
6.1 Adjustments to the
Guaranteed Maximum Price on account of changes in the Work may be
determined by any of the methods listed in Subparagraph 7.3.3 of
AIA Document A201-1997 , as amended and attached hereto as
Exhibit “6.1” (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
“General Conditions”). Subject to Subparagraph 5.1.4
hereof, the Contractor’s Fee shall be increased or decreased,
as applicable, as a result of the issuance of Change Orders by an
amount calculated as four percent (4%) of the actual change in the
Cost of the Work.
