GENERAL REQUIREMENTS

Alteration of Plans or Character of Work

The County Commission, after recommendation by the County Public Works Director, reserves the right to make at any time during the progress of the work, such increases or decreases in quantities and such alterations in the details of construction, and the elimination of one or more items as may be found necessary or desirable. Such alterations shall not be considered as a waiver of, nor release of, the surety. The Contractor agrees to accept the work as altered the same as if it had been a part of the original Agreement. The Contractor shall proceed with the work alterations when ordered in writing. Financial increases to this

Agreement must be approved in writing by the County Commission before additional work is authorized and constructed.

Brand Name

The use of brand names in the Specifications is for the purpose of designating the standard of quality, performance, and characteristics desired. Equivalent brand substitutions for products must be approved by Utah County.

Change Orders

Utah County may at any time, without notice to any sureties, by written order designated or indicated to be a change order, make changes to the work within the general scope of the contract, and to the contract amount and/or contract deadlines.

The overhead, profit, and commission fees included in any change order bid shall not exceed the maximum percentages of the net cost of the bid as shown in the following table:

Only the Contractor or subcontractor who actually performs or furnishes the work may charge for overhead or profit regardless of the number of tiers of subcontractors, that is, the markup on work subcontracted by a subcontractor will be limited to one charge of 10% for overhead and profit and one charge of 10% for the prime Contractor's commission.

Overhead &

Profit Commission

To prime Contractor on work performed by subcontractors 0% 10%

To prime Contractor or subcontractor for that portion of work performed with their respective forces 10% 0%

Invitation to Bid: Lower Provo River Parkway Improvements P a g e | 10

C. Office supplies.

D. Drinking water.

E. Temporary heat, light, and power.

F. Field toilets.

G. Small tools.

H. Other costs of materials and/or equipment associated with performance of the contract.

On bids covering both increases and decreases in the contract amount, the overhead and profit shall be computed on the net change only.

Each change order shall be signed by the Contractor, the County Public Works Director, and the County Commission, and payment and performance bonds shall be increased by the

Contractor to reflect any increase to the contract amount before the Contractor will be authorized to proceed with the work specified therein.

Failure of Contractor and the County to agree on an adjustment of contract amount or contract deadlines shall not excuse Contractor from proceeding with prosecution and performance of work. Contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers shall handle all disputes in a manner which will permit work to proceed on schedule while the matter in dispute is being resolved.

The County shall have the right, within its sole discretion, to require the Contractor to commence performance of changes to work based on County requirements prior to the submission of a cost bid by the Contractor to the County, or approval of the cost bid by the

County. In such case, Contractor shall proceed with the work so changed upon receipt of a

Construction Change Directive from the County and thereafter submit to the County as soon as possible any cost bid required.

Completion Date

The completion date for the Lower Provo River Parkway is on or before October 30, 2026, regardless of weather conditions and other related problems. If the Contractor fails to complete the work on or prior to the completion date, or by extension of time granted by the County in writing, then the Contractor may forfeit his or her 5% payment retainer and shall in addition be liable for all additional costs and damages incurred by Utah County as a result of the failure of completion.

If abnormal weather conditions or other natural events totally beyond the control of the

Contractor require, in the judgment of the County, an extension of the completion date, written authorization must be given by the County for such specific extension.

Invitation to Bid: Lower Provo River Parkway Improvements P a g e | 11

Liquidated Damages

It is agreed by the parties to this Agreement that in case all the work called for in accordance with this Agreement is not completed before or upon the Completion Dates set forth in this Agreement, damage will be sustained by Utah County, and that it is and will be impracticable to determine the actual damage which Utah County will sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay. It is therefore agreed that the Contractor will pay to Utah

County $1000.00 per day for each calendar day between the Completion Date required herein for any specific roadway and the date of final acceptance thereof by Utah County, as liquidated damages and not as penalty. It is further agreed that the amounts stipulated are reasonable estimates of the damages that would be sustained by Utah County and the

Contractor agrees to pay such liquidated damages as herein provided. In case the liquidated damages are not paid, the Contractor agrees that Utah County may deduct the amount thereof from any money due to or that may become due to the Contractor by progress payments or otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or if said amount is not sufficient, recover the total amount.

The Contractor will not be assessed with liquidated damages during any delay in the completion of the work caused by acts of God, acts of criminals, acts of Utah County, acts of the public utilities, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, labor strikes that delay the critical sequence of the work, and unusually severe weather or delays of subcontractors due to such causes, provided that Utah County is notified in writing of the causes of such delay.

Cooperation

Utah County intends to encourage cooperation with the Owner, Engineers, Supplier, Contractor and its subcontractors. The objectives are effective and efficient agreement performance, intended to achieve completion within budget, on schedule, and in accordance with the Drawings and Specifications.

ADR in this context is intended to be a voluntary, nonbinding procedure available for use by the parties to this Agreement to resolve any dispute that may arise during performance.
