Likewise, the CONTRACTOR shall be solely responsible for the safety of himself, his employees and other persons, as well as for the protection of the safety of the improvements being erected and the property of himself or any other person, as a result of his operations hereunder. Architect' s construction drawings and specifications as well as any additional information concerning the work to be performed passing from or through the ARCHITECT shall not be interpreted as requiring or allowing CONTRACTOR to deviate from the plans and specifications, the intent of such drawings, specifications and any other such instructions being to define with particularity the agreement of the parties as to the work the CONTRACTOR is to 4 perform. CONTRACTOR shall be fully and completely liable, at his own expense, for design, construction, installation and use, or non-use, of all items and methods incident to performance of the contract, and for all loss, damage or injury incident thereto, either to person or property, including, without limitation, the adequacy of all temporary supports, shoring, bracing, scaffolding, machinery or equipment, safety precautions or devices, and similar items or devices used by him during construction. Any review of work in process, or any visit or observation during construction, or any clarification of plans and specifications, by the ARCHITECT, or any agent, employee, or representative of either of them, whether through personal observation on the project site or by means of approval of shop drawings for temporary construction or construction processes, or by other means or method, is agreed by the CONTRACTOR to be for the purpose of observing the extent and nature of work completed or being performed, as measured against the drawings and specifications constituting the contract, or for the purpose of enabling CONTRACTOR to more fully understand the plans and specifications so that the completed construction work will conform thereto, and shall in no way relieve the CONTRACTOR from full and complete responsibility for the proper performance of his work on the project, including but without limitation the propriety of means and methods of the CONTRACTOR in performing said contract, and the adequacy of any designs, plans or other facilities for accomplishing such performance. Deviation by the CONTRACTOR from plans and specifications that may have been in evidence during any such visitation or observation by the ARCHITECT, or any of his representatives, whether called to the CONTRACTOR' S attention or not shall in no way relieve CONTRACTOR from his responsibility to complete all work in accordance with said plans and specifications . 2 . 08 CONTRACTOR' S UNDERSTANDING. It is understood and agreed that the CONTRACTOR has, by careful examination, satisfied himself as to the nature and location of the work, the conformation of the ground, the character, quality and quantity of the materials to be encountered, the character of equipment and facilities needed preliminary to and during the prosecution of the work, the general and local conditions, and all other matters which can in any way affect the work under this contract.

The CONTRACTOR shall submit to the ARCHITECT, with such promptness as to cause no delay in his own work or in that of any other Contractor, four checked copies, unless otherwise specified, of all shop and/or setting drawings and schedules required for the work of the various trades, and the ARCHITECT shall pass upon them with reasonable promptness, making desired corrections . The CONTRACTOR shall make any corrections required by the ARCHITECT, file with him two corrected copies and furnish such other copies as may be needed. The ARCHITECT ' S approval of such drawings or schedules shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from responsibility for deviations from drawings or specifications, unless he has in writing called the ARCHITECT ' S attention Oto such deviations at the time of submission, nor shall it relieve him from responsibility for errors of any sort in shop drawings or schedules . It shall be the CONTRACTOR' S responsibility to fully and completely review all shop drawings to ascertain their effect on his ability to perform the required contract work in accordance with the plans and specifications and within the contract time . Such review by the ARCHITECT shall be for the sole purpose of determining the sufficiency of said drawings or schedules to result in finished improvements in conformity with the plans and 6 specifications, and shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR of his duty as an independent contractor as previously set forth, it being expressly understood and agreed that the ARCHITECT does not assume any duty to pass upon the propriety or adequacy of such drawings or schedules, or any means or methods reflected thereby, in relation to the safety of either person or property during CONTRACTOR' S performance hereunder. 2 . 13 PRELIMINARY APPROVAL.

Any questioned work may be ordered taken up or removed for re- examination, by the ARCHITECT, prior to final acceptance, and if found not in accordance with the specifications for said work, all expense of removing, re-examination and replacement shall be borne by the CONTRACTOR, otherwise the expense thus incurred shall be allowed as EXTRA WORK, and shall be paid for by the OWNER; provided that, where inspection or approval is specifically required by the specifications prior to performance of certain work, should the CONTRACTOR proceed with such work without requesting prior inspection or approval he shall bear all expense of taking up, removing, and replacing this work if so directed by the ARCHITECT. 2 . 14 DEFECTS AND THEIR REMEDIES . It is further agreed that if the work or any part thereof, or any material brought on the site of the work for use in the work or selected for the same, shall be deemed by the ARCHITECT as unsuitable or not in conformity with the specifications, the CONTRACTOR shall, after receipt of written notice thereof from the ARCHITECT, forthwith remove such material and rebuild or otherwise remedy such work so that it shall be in full accordance with this contract . 7 2 . 15 CHANGES AND ALTERATIONS . The CONTRACTOR further agrees that the OWNER may make such changes and alterations as the OWNER may see fit, in the line, grade, form, dimensions, plans or materials for the work herein contemplated, or any part thereof, either before or after the beginning of the construction, without affecting the validity of this contract and the accompanying Performance and Payment Bonds . If such changes or alterations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, they shall not constitute the basis for a claim for damages, or anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with, except as provided for unit price items under Section 5 "Measurement and Payment" . If the amount of work is increased, and the work can fairly be classified under the specifications, such increase shall be paid for according to the quantity actually done and at the unit price, if any, established for such work under this contract, except as provided for unit price items under Section 5 "Measurement and Payment" ; otherwise, such additional work shall be paid for as provided under Extra Work. In case the OWNER shall make such changes or alterations as shall make useless any work already done or material already furnished or used in said work, then the OWNER shall recompense the CONTRACTOR for any material or labor so used, and for any actual loss occasioned by such change, due to actual expenses incurred in preparation for the work as originally planned. 3 . GENERAL OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES 3 . 01 KEEPING OF PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS ACCESSIBLE.

It is understood and agreed that the actual amount of work to be done and material to be furnished under this contract may differ somewhat 16 from these estimates, and that where the basis for payment under this contract is the unit price method, payment shall be for the actual amount of such work done and the material furnished. Where payment is based on the unit price method, the CONTRACTOR agrees that he will make no claim for damages, anticipated profits or otherwise on account of any differences which may be found between the quantities of work actually done, the material actually furnished under this contract and the estimated quantities contemplated and contained in the proposal; provided, however, that in case the actual quantity of any major item should become as much as 20o more than, or 200 less than the estimated or ' contemplated quantity for such items, then either party to this Agreement, upon demand, shall be entitled to a revised consideration upon the portion of the work above or below 20% of the estimated quantity. A "Major Item" shall be construed to be any individual bid item incurred in the proposal that has a total cost equal to or greater than five (5) per cent of the total contract cost, computed on the basis of the proposal quantities and the contract unit prices . Any revised consideration is to be determined by agreement between the parties, otherwise by the terms of this Agreement, as provided under "Extra Work" . 5 . 03 PRICE OF WORK. In consideration of the furnishing of all the necessary labor, equipment and material, and the completion of all work by the CONTRACTOR, and on the completion of all work and of the delivery of all material embraced in this Contract in full conformity with the specifications and stipulations herein contained, the OWNER agrees to pay the CONTRACTOR the prices set forth in the Proposal hereto attached, which has been made a part of this contract. The CONTRACTOR hereby agrees to receive such prices in full for furnishing all material and all labor required for the aforesaid work, also for all expense incurred by him, and for well and truly performing the same and the whole thereof in the manner and according to this Agreement. 5. 04 PARTIAL PAYMENTS. On or before the 10th day of each month, the CONTRACTOR shall prepare and submit to the ARCHITECT for approval or modification a statement showing as completely as practicable the total value of the work done by the CONTRACTOR up to and including the last day of the preceeding month; said statement shall also include the value of all sound 17 materials delivered on the site of the work that are to be fabricated into the work. The OWNER shall then pay the CONTRACTOR on or before the last day of the current month the total amount of the approved statement, less applicable retainage of the amount thereof, which retainage shall be retained until final payment, and further less all previous payments and all further sums that may be retained by the OWNER under the terms of this Agreement . If the total Contract Price at time of Contract execution is Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400, 000 . 00) or more, the agreed retainage until final payment will be Five Percent (5%) , otherwise, the agreed retainage until final payment will be Ten Percent (10%) . 5 . 05 USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS . The OWNER shall have the right to take possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions of the work, notwithstanding the time for completing the entire work or such portions may not have expired but such taking possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any work not completed in accordance with the Contract Documents . If such prior use increases the cost of or delays the work, the CONTRACTOR shall be entitled to such extra compensation, or extension of time, or both, as the ARCHITECT may determine. The CONTRACTOR shall notify the ARCHITECT when, in the CONTRACTOR' S opinion, the contract is "substantially completed" and when so notifying the ARCHITECT, the CONTRACTOR shall furnish to the ARCHITECT in writing a detailed list of unfinished work. The ARCHITECT will review the CONTRACTOR' S list of unfinished work and will add thereto such items as the CONTRACTOR has failed to include. The "substantial completion" of the structure or facility shall not excuse the CONTRACTOR from performing all of the work undertaken, whether of a minor or major nature, and thereby completing the structure or facility in accordance with the Contract Documents . 5 . 06 FINAL COMPLETION AND ACCEPTANCE. Within ten (10) days after the CONTRACTOR has given the ARCHITECT written notice that the work has been completed, or substantially completed, the ARCHITECT and the OWNER shall inspect the work and within said time, if the work be found to be completed or substantially completed in accordance with the Contract Documents, the ARCHITECT shall issue to the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR his Certificate of Completion, and thereupon it shall be the duty of the OWNER within ten (10) days to issue a Certificate of 18 Acceptance of the work to the CONTRACTOR or to advise the CONTRACTOR in writing of the reason for non-acceptance. 5. 07 FINAL PAYMENT. Upon the issuance of the Certificate of Completion, the ARCHITECT shall proceed to verify final completion and the final statement of the CONTRACTOR of all work performed and materials furnished under the terms of the Agreement and shall certify same to the OWNER, who shall pay to the CONTRACTOR on or after the 30th day, and before the 35th day, after the date of the Certificate of Completion, the balance due the CONTRACTOR under the terms of this Agreement, provided he has fully performed his contractual obligations under the terms of this contract; and said payment shall become due in any event upon said performance by the CONTRACTOR. Neither the Certificate of Acceptance nor the final payment, nor any provision in the Contract Documents, shall relieve the CONTRACTOR of the obligation for fulfillment of any warranty which may be required. 5 . 08 PAYMENTS WITHHELD. The OWNER may, on account of subsequently discovered evidence, withhold or nullify the whole or part of any certificate to such extent as may be necessary to protect himself from loss on account of: (a) Defective work not remedied. (b) Claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of claims . (c) Failure of the CONTRACTOR to make payments properly to sub-contractors or for material or labor. (d) Damage to another contractor. (e) Reasonable doubt that the work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the contract amount . (f) Reasonable indication that the work will not be completed within the contract time. When the above grounds are removed or the CONTRACTOR provides a Surety Bond satisfactory to the OWNER, which will protect the OWNER in the amount withheld, payment shall be made for amounts withheld because of them. 5. 09 DELAYED PAYMENTS . Should the OWNER fail to make payment to the CONTRACTOR of the sum named in any partial or final statement, when payment is due, then the OWNER shall pay to the CONTRACTOR, in addition to the sum shown as due by such statement, interest thereon at the rate of six (6) per cent per 19 annum, unless otherwise specified, from date due as provided under "Partial Payments" and "Final Payments", until fully paid, which shall fully liquidate any injury to the CONTRACTOR growing out of such delay in payment, but the right is expressly reserved to the CONTRACTOR in the event payments be not promptly made, as provided under "Partial Payments", to at any time thereafter treat the contract as abandoned by the OWNER and recover compensation, as provided under "Abandonment of Contract", unless such payments are withheld in accordance with the provision of "Payments Withheld" . 6 . EXTRA WORK AND CLAIMS 6 . 01 CHANGE ORDERS . Without invalidating this Agreement, the OWNER may, at any time or from time to time, order additions, deletions or revisions to the work; such changes will be authorized by Change Order to be prepared by the ARCHITECT for execution by the OWNER and the CONTRACTOR. The. Change Order shall set forth the basis for any change in contract price, as hereinafter set forth for Extra Work, and any change in contract time which may result from the change . In the event the CONTRACTOR shall refuse to execute a Change Order which has been prepared by the ARCHITECT and executed by the OWNER, the ARCHITECT may in writing instruct the CONTRACTOR to proceed with the work as set forth in the Change Order and the CONTRACTOR may make claim against the OWNER for Extra Work involved therein, as hereinafter provided. 6. 02 MINOR CHANGES . The ARCHITECT may authorize minor changes in the work not inconsistent with the overall intent of the Contract Documents and not involving an increase in Contract Price. If the CONTRACTOR believes that any minor change or alteration authorized by the ARCHITECT involves Extra Work and entitles him to an increase in the Contract Price, the CONTRACTOR shall make written request to the ARCHITECT for a written Field Order. In such case, the CONTRACTOR by copy of his communication to the ARCHITECT or otherwise in writing shall advise the OWNER of his request to the ARCHITECT for a written Field Order and that the work involved may result in an increase in the Contract Price . Any request by the CONTRACTOR for a change in Contract Price shall be made prior to beginning the work covered by the 20 1 proposed change. 6. 03 EXTRA WORK. It is agreed that the basis of compensation to the CONTRACTOR for work either added or deleted by a Change Order or for which a claim for Extra Work is made shall be determined by one or more of the following methods : Method (A) - By agreed unit prices; or Method (B) - By agreed lump sum; or Method (C) - If neither Method (A) nor Method (B) be agreed upon before the Extra Work is commenced, then the CONTRACTOR shall be paid the "actual field cost" of the work, plus fifteen (15) percent. In the event said Extra Work be performed and paid for under Method (C) , then the provisions of this paragraph shall apply and the "actual field cost" is hereby defined to include the cost to the CONTRACTOR of all workmen, such as foreman, timekeepers, mechanics and laborers, and materials, supplies, teams, trucks, rentals on machinery and equipment, for the time actually employed or used on such Extra Work, plus actual transportation charges necessarily incurred, together with all power, fuel, lubricants, water and similar operating expenses, also all necessary incidental expenses incurred directly on account of such Extra Work, including Social Security, Old Age Benefits and other payroll taxes, and, a rateable proportion of premiums on Performance and Payment Bonds and Maintenance Bonds, Public Liability and Property Damage and Workmen' s Compensation, and all other insurance as may be required by any law or ordinance, or directed by the OWNER, or by them agreed to. The ARCHITECT may direct the form in which accounts of the "actual field cost" shall be kept and the records of these accounts shall be made available to the ARCHITECT . The ARCHITECT or OWNER may also specify in writing, before the work commences, the method of doing the work and the type and kind of machinery and equipment to be used; otherwise these matters shall be determined by the CONTRACTOR. Unless otherwise agreed upon, the prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be determined by using 100 per cent, unless otherwise specified, of the latest schedule of Equipment Ownership Expense adopted by the Associated General Contractors of America. Where practicable the terms and prices for the use of machinery and equipment shall be incorporated in the Written Extra Work Order. The fifteen (15) per cent of the "actual field cost" to be paid the CONTRACTOR shall cover and compensate him for his profit, 21 overhead, general superintendence and field office expense, and all other elements of cost and expense not embraced within the "actual field cost" as herein defined, save that where the CONTRACTOR'S Camp or Field Office must be maintained primarily on account of such Extra Work; then the cost to maintain and operate the same shall be included in the "actual field cost" . No claim for Extra Work of any kind will be allowed unless ordered in writing by the ARCHITECT. In case any orders or instructions, either oral or written, appear to the CONTRACTOR to involve Extra Work for which he should receive compensation or an adjustment in the construction time, he shall make written request to the ARCHITECT for written order authorizing such Extra Work. Should a difference of opinion arise as to what does or does not constitute Extra Work, or as to the payment therefor, and the ARCHITECT insists upon its performance, the CONTRACTOR shall proceed with the work after making written request for written order and shall keep an accurate account of the "actual field cost" thereof, as provided under Method (C) . 6. 04 TIME OF FILING CLAIMS . It is further agreed by both parties hereto that all questions of dispute or adjustment presented by the CONTRACTOR shall be in writing and filed with the ARCHITECT within thirty (30) days after the ARCHITECT has given any directions, order or instruction to which the CONTRACTOR desires to take exception. The ARCHITECT shall reply within thirty (30) days to such written exceptions by the CONTRACTOR and render his final decision in writing. 7 . ABANDONMENT OF CONTRACT 7 . 01 ABANDONMENT BY CONTRACTOR. In case the CONTRACTOR should abandon and fail or refuse to resume work within ten (10) days after written notification from the OWNER, or the ARCHITECT, or if the CONTRACTOR fails to comply with the orders of the ARCHITECT, when such orders are consistent with the Contract Documents, then, and in that case, where performance and payment bonds exist, the Sureties on these bonds shall be notified in writing and directed to complete the work, and a copy of said notice shall be delivered to the CONTRACTOR. After receiving said notice of abandonment the CONTRACTOR shall not remove from the work any machinery, equipment, tools, materials, or supplies then on the job, but the same, together with any materials and equipment under contract for the work, may be held for use on the work by the OWNER or the Surety on 22 the performance bond, or another contractor in completion of the work; and the CONTRACTOR shall not receive any rental or credit therefor (except when used in connection with Extra Work, where credit shall be allowed as provided for under Section 6, Extra Work and Claims) , it being understood that the use of such equipment and materials will ultimately reduce the cost to complete the work and be reflected in the final settlement. Where there is no performance bond provided or in case the Surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion herein above provided for, within ten (10) days after service of such notice, then the OWNER may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners : 7 . 01 . 1 The OWNER may thereupon employ such force of men and use such machinery, equipment, tools, materials, and supplies as said OWNER may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, materials, and supplies to said CONTRACTOR, and expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the OWNER out of such moneys as may be due, or that may thereafter at any time become due to the CONTRACTOR under and by virtue of this Agreement. In case such expense is less than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by the CONTRACTOR, then said CONTRACTOR shall receive the difference. In case such expense is greater than the sum which would have been payable under this contract, if the same had been completed by said CONTRACTOR, then the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety shall pay the amount of such excess to the OWNER; or 7 . 01 . 2 The OWNER under sealed bids, after five (5) days notice published one or more times in a newspaper having general circulation in the county of the location of the work, may let the contract for the completion of the work under substantially the same terms and conditions which are provided in this contract . In case any increase in cost to the OWNER under the new contract as compared to what would have been the cost under this contract, such increase shall be charged to the CONTRACTOR and the Surety shall be and remain bound therefor. However, should the cost to complete any such new contract prove to be less than what would have been the cost to complete under this contract, the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety shall be credited therewith. When the work shall have been substantially completed the CONTRACTOR and his Surety shall be so notified and Certificates 23 of Completion and Acceptance, as provided in Paragraph 5. 06 herein above, shall be issued. A complete itemized statement of the contract accounts, certified to by the ARCHITECT as being correct, shall then be prepared and delivered to the CONTRACTOR and his Surety, whereupon the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety, or the OWNER as the case may be, shall pay the balance due as reflected by said statement, within fifteen (15) days after the date of such Certificate of Completion. In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have been the cost to the OWNER had the work been completed by the CONTRACTOR under the terms of this contract; or when the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the OWNER, then all machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety. Should the cost to complete the work exceed the contract price, and the CONTRACTOR and/or his Surety fail to pay the amount due the OWNER within the time designated herein above, and there remains any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies on the site of the work, notice thereof, together with an itemized list of such equipment and materials, shall be mailed to the CONTRACTOR and his Surety at the respective addresses designated in this contract, provided, however, that actual written notice, such property shall be held at the risk of the CONTRACTOR and his Surety subject only to the duty of the OWNER to exercise ordinary care to protect such property. After fifteen (15) days from the date of said notice the OWNER may sell such machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies and apply the net sum derived from such sale to the credit of the CONTRACTOR and his Surety. Such sale may be made at either public or private sale, with or without notice, as the OWNER may elect . The OWNER shall release any machinery, equipment, tools, materials or supplies, which remain on the work, and belong to persons other than the CONTRACTOR or his Surety, to their proper owners . The books on all operations provided herein shall be open to the CONTRACTOR and his Surety. 7 . 02 ABANDONMENT BY OWNER. In case the OWNER shall fail to comply with the terms of this contract, and should fail or refuse to comply with said terms within ten (10) days after written notification by the CONTRACTOR, then the CONTRACTOR may suspend or wholly abandon the work, and may remove therefrom all machinery, tools and equipment, and all materials on the site of work that have not been included in payments to the CONTRACTOR and have not been wrought into the work. And thereupon the 24 ARCHITECT shall make an estimate of the total amount earned by the CONTRACTOR, which estimate shall include the value of all work actually completed by said CONTRACTOR (at the prices stated in the attached proposal where unit prices are used) , the value of all partially completed work at a fair and equitable price, and the amount of all Extra Work performed at the prices agreed upon, or provided for by the terms of this contract, and a reasonable sum to cover the cost of any provisions made by the CONTRACTOR to carry the whole work to completion and which cannot be utilized. The ARCHITECT shall then make a final statement of the balance due the CONTRACTOR by deducting from the above estimate all previous payments by the OWNER and all other sums that may be retained by the OWNER under the terms of this Agreement and shall certify same to the OWNER who shall pay to the CONTRACTOR on or before thirty (30) days after the date of the notification by the CONTRACTOR the balance shown by said final statement as due the CONTRACTOR, under the terms of this Agreement . 25 SPECIAL - ADDENDUM NO. 1 -ASCE GENERAL CONDITIONS - BID SURETY Each bidder shall submit with his proposal a cashier's check or certified check or bidder's bond equal to 10 percent of the amount bid. If the bid is upon alternates, such bid deposit or bidder's bond must be at least 10 percent of the highest amount for which the bidder offers to do all or any of the work bid upon. If a bidder's bond is submitted, it shall be executed by the bidder and by a corporate surety. The bidder may furnish a bid deposit instead of a bidder's bond. Such deposit shall secure the Owner to the same purpose and effect as if a-bidder's bond had been furnished. Every bidder submitting a bid deposit instead of a bidder's bond will be deemed to have consented to all terms, conditions, and provisions which pertain to a bidder's bond. x:city of baytownlfire stationlphase 2 contractlexhb.b.doc DL 8 February 2002 26 • BCA Bricker + Cannady Architects 8 February 2002 Exhibit C - Project Scope Project: Renovation of Fire Station 4723 Garth Road Baytown, Texas Project Scope Renovate certain components of the existing approximately 7,500-sq. ft. fire station in response to damage caused by moisture infiltration through the exterior envelope and into the building.
