GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION,

INSTALLATION AND IMPLEMENTATION

ARTICLE 1 CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

1.1 DEFINITIONS

1.1.1 THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS

The Contract Documents consist of the Owner-Contractor Agreement, the Conditions of the Contract (General, Supplementary, and other Conditions), the Drawings, the Specifications, the Contractor's Bid as accepted by the Owner, and all Addenda issued before, and all Modifications issued after execution of the Contract. A Modification is (1) a written amendment to the Contract signed by both parties, (2) a Change Order or Change Directive, or (3) a written interpretation issued by Architect/Engineer in response to a request for information from Contractor forwarded to Architect/Engineer by Contractor pursuant to Subparagraph 2.2.8. The Contract Documents will include all Bid Documents, including Addenda, Instructions to Bidders, Invitation for Bid, and the bid response with associated required submissions. Unit prices submitted with the bid will form the basis for evaluating payment resulting from the addition or deletion of work issued as a Contract Modification under the contract.

1.1.2 THE CONTRACT

The Contract Documents form the Contract for Construction, Installation, and Implementation. This Contract represents the entire and integrated agreement between the parties hereto and supersedes all prior negotiations, representations, or agreements, either written or oral. The Contract may be amended or modified only by a Modification as defined in Subparagraph 1.1.1.

The Contract Documents shall not be construed to create any contractual relationship of any kind between Architect/Engineer and Contractor, but Architect/Engineer shall be entitled to the performance of obligations intended for their benefit, and to the enforcement thereof. Nothing contained in the Contract Documents shall create any contractual relationship between the Owner or Architect/Engineer and any Subcontractor or Sub-subcontractor.

1.1.3 THE WORK

The Work comprises the completed construction required by the Contract Documents, including all labor necessary to produce such construction, and all materials and equipment incorporated or to be incorporated in such construction.

1.1.4 THE PROJECT

The Project is the total construction of which the Work performed under the Contract Documents may be a whole or part.

1.1.5 ARCHITECT/ENGINEER

GRESHAM SMITH

1.2 EXECUTION, CORRELATION, AND INTENT

1.2.1 The signing by the Owner and Contractor of the Owner-Contractor Agreement and the Conditions of the Contract (General, Supplementary, and Other Conditions) shall have the same force for all the Contract Documents as if each of the Contract Documents were individually signed by both parties to the Construction Contract. If either the Owner or Contractor or both do not sign such documents, the Architect/Engineer shall identify such Documents in writing and distribute them to

Capital Region Airport Commission General Conditions Page 3 of 34 both Owner and Contractor.

1.2.2 By executing the Contract, Contractor warrants that it has closely inspected the site as well as the conditions of adjacent properties and has recorded to its satisfaction the physical conditions of existing properties and familiarized itself with the local conditions under which the Work is to be performed and correlated its observations with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

1.2.3 The Contract Documents intend to include all items necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work. The Contract Documents are complementary, and what is required by anyone shall be as binding as if required by all. Work not covered in the Contract Documents will not be required unless it is consistent and reasonably inferable as necessary to produce the intended results. Words and abbreviations that have well-known technical or trade meanings are used in the Contract Documents in accordance with such recognized meanings.

1.2.4 The organization of the Specifications into divisions, sections, and articles, and the arrangement of Drawings, should not control the Contractor in dividing the Work among Subcontractors or in establishing the extent of Work to be performed by any trade.

1.2.5 The order of precedence of the Contract Documents is as follows with the highest authority listed as "a": (a) Owner-Contractor Agreement; (b) Conditions of the Contract (FAA Mandatory Contract Provisions, FAA General Contract Provisions, Capital Region Airport Commission General Conditions, in descending order); (c) Specifications and Drawings; (d) Contractor's Proposal as accepted by Owner and incorporated into the Contract Documents.

1.2.6 The Specifications and Drawings shall be equal in authority and priority. However, in the event of a conflict between the Specifications and the Drawings, the Contractor shall at once report such conflict to the Architect/Engineer, and the provision requiring the greater level of service or quality or quantity of work shall prevail in accordance with this Paragraph. A duplication of work is not intended by the Contract Documents, and any duplication specified shall not become a basis for extra cost to the Owner. In the event of duplications, inconsistencies, or conflicts, the appropriate method of performing the Work shall be reviewed and recommended by the Architect/Engineer and approved by the Owner.

1.2.7 When included in the Contract Documents, FAA Sections 10 through 90 and the General Conditions govern performance under all sections of the project manual.

1.3 OWNERSHIP AND USE OF DOCUMENTS

1.3.1 All Drawings, Specifications, computations, sketches, test data, survey results, photographs, renderings, and other material related to the Work prepared by the Contractor or furnished to the Contractor by the Owner or Architect/Engineer are the property of the Owner. The Contractor shall submit to the Owner the original of all such materials upon the Owner's request, or upon Final Completion. The Contractor shall not use any such materials or copies on any other project, nor shall the information be divulged without the Owner's prior written approval. Except for one contract set for each party to the Contract Documents, such documents are to be returned or suitably accounted for to the Owner at the completion of the Work. Submission or distribution to meet official regulatory requirements or for other purposes in connection with the Work is not to be construed as publication in derogation of the Architect/Engineer's or Owner's common-law copyright or other reserved rights.

1.3.2 Reproduction of any portion of the Contract Documents for the Contractor’s use as submittals for Shop Drawings is not acceptable.

1.3.3 The Contractor will be furnished free of charge with 2 (two) copies of Drawings and Project Manuals. Additional sets will be furnished as an expense to the Contractor at the cost of reproduction, postage, and handling.

ARTICLE 2 ADMINISTRATION OF THE CONTRACT

2.1 DEFINITION

2.1.1 Architect/Engineer is the person lawfully licensed to practice architecture or engineering, as applicable, or an entity lawfully practicing architecture or engineering, identified as such in the Owner-Contractor Agreement. The term Architect/Engineer means the Architect/Engineer or the Architect/Engineer's authorized representative.

2.2 ADMINISTRATION OF THE CONTRACT

2.2.1 Architect/Engineer shall provide administration of the Contract as hereinafter described. However, the Architect/Engineer shall not have authority, without first consulting with and obtaining the approval of the Owner, to (a) order a material change in the Plans, Drawings, or Specifications, or

(b) take any action or approve any change which increases the cost of the Project or the time of performance of the Work.

2.2.2 Architect/Engineer shall be the representative of the Owner during the Work and shall advise and consult with the Owner. Architect/Engineer shall have authority to act on behalf of Owner only to the extent provided in the Contract Documents and the Owner/Architect/Engineer Agreements, respectively, unless otherwise modified by written instrument in accordance with Subparagraph

2.2.20. In the performance of any services by the Architect/Engineer, including any services as a representative of the Owner, the Architect/Engineer acts as an independent contractor and not as an agent of the Owner, and the Owner's participation in the design and construction of the Project in no way relieves Architect/Engineer or Contractor of its professional duties and responsibilities under applicable law and the Contract Documents.

2.2.3 Architect/Engineer shall visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of the Work, or as otherwise agreed by the Architect/Engineer and Owner in writing, to familiarize itself with the progress and quality of the Work and to determine if the Work is proceeding in accordance with the Contract Documents. Architect/Engineer shall conduct meetings with the Contractor weekly during installation and monthly at all other times or as necessary and as requested by the Owner. The Architect/Engineer shall attend meetings regularly to review work done, planning, and resolution of any questions or issues that may arise concerning the work. At such meetings, the Architect/Engineer shall be responsible for preparing detailed minutes of the meeting and distributing the minutes to the Owner, Contractor, Architect/Engineer, and any other parties attending such meeting. The Architect/Engineer shall observe the Work of the Contractor to ensure that the Project is constructed in accordance with the Contract Documents and to determine the adequacy of personnel and equipment and the availability of materials and supplies to meet the approved construction schedule. Based on its observations, the Architect/Engineer shall keep the Owner informed of the progress and quality of the Work. The Architect/Engineer shall consult with the Owner when the requirements of the Contract Documents are not met and shall recommend a course of action to the Owner when the requirements of the Contract Documents are not met. The performance of such observations by the Architect/Engineer, however, shall not relieve the Contractor of its responsibility to perform all work in accordance with the Contract Documents.

2.2.4 Architect/Engineer shall not be responsible for or have control or charge of (a) construction, installation, or implementation means, methods, techniques, sequences, or procedures, (b) safety precautions and programs in connection with the Work, or (c) the acts or omissions of Contractor, Subcontractors, Sub-subcontractors or any of their agents or employees, or any other persons performing any of the Work.

Capital Region Airport Commission General Conditions Page 5 of 34

2.2.5 Architect/Engineer shall always have access to the Work wherever it is in preparation and progress, except where prohibited by law. The Contractor shall provide facilities for such access so the Architect/Engineer may perform its function under the Contract Documents.

2.2.6 Except as otherwise provided in the Contract Documents or when direct communications have been specially authorized, the Contractor shall always communicate with the Owner through the Architect/Engineer. Communications by and with the Architect/Engineer's consultants shall be forwarded from the Architect/Engineer to the Owner. Communications by and with Subcontractors and material suppliers shall be forwarded by the Contractor to the Architect/Engineer for the Owner.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Owner shall always have the right, at its sole discretion, to communicate directly with the Contractor, Architect/Engineer, and any other Contractor.

2.2.7 Contractor's Application for Payment shall be forwarded to the Architect/Engineer. The Architect/Engineer shall promptly certify the amounts due on such Applications and forward them to the Owner. After receipt of Contractor's Application for Payment from the Contractor, Architect/Engineer shall either (i) issue a Recommendation for Payment with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as Architect/Engineer determines is properly due and recommends that the Owner pay; or (ii) notify Contractor in writing its reasons for withholding a Certificate as provided in Subparagraph 9.4.1. The certification of an Application for Payment and Recommendation for Payment by Architect/Engineer shall constitute representation by Architect/Engineer to Owner, based on observations at the site and on the data comprising the Contractor's Application for Payment, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated; that, to the best of its knowledge, information, and belief, the quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents (subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, and the results of any specific qualifications stated in the Certificate for Payment); and that Contractor is entitled to payment in the amount certified.

However, the certification of an Application for Payment and Recommendation for Payment by the Architect/Engineer shall not be a representation that the Architect/Engineer has made any examination to ascertain how and for what purpose the Contractor has used the money paid on account of the Contract Sum.

2.2.8 Architect/Engineer shall render interpretations necessary for the proper execution or progress of the Work within the agreed time limits upon written request from Owner. Upon receipt of a Request for Information Form from Contractor, Architect/Engineer shall promptly pursue a response to the same and shall deliver the same to Contractor. In the event the Request for Information is critical, the Architect/Engineer shall immediately pursue a response to the same by telephone or e-mail with written confirmation by e-mail.

2.2.9 Interpretations of the Architect/Engineer shall be consistent with the intent of and reasonably inferable from the Contract Documents and shall be in written or graphic form.

2.2.10 Architect/Engineer's interpretations on matters relating to the artistic effect shall be final if consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents, subject to approval by the Owner.

2.2.11 Claims, disputes, and other matters in question between Contractor and Owner relating to the execution or progress of the Work or the interpretation of the Contract Documents shall be referred initially to Architect/Engineer for a decision which it shall render in writing within a reasonable time.

The Architect/Engineer shall immediately notify the Owner of any claim, dispute, or other matter in question that may affect the Contractor’s performance, Contract Time, or Contract Sum.

2.2.12 Architect/Engineer shall have the authority to reject Work that does not conform to the Contract Documents and to require special inspection or testing, but shall take such action only after consultation with the Owner. Architect/Engineer shall have the authority to require additional inspection or testing of the Work in accordance with Subparagraph 7.7.2, whether such Work is fabricated, installed, or completed, when it determines that such is necessary or advisable for

Capital Region Airport Commission General Conditions Page 6 of 34 implementation of the Contract Documents. Architect/Engineer's authority under this Subparagraph or a good faith decision made by Architect/Engineer to exercise such authority shall not give rise to duty or responsibility of the Architect/Engineer to Contractor, Subcontractor, material and equipment suppliers, their agents or employees, or other persons performing the Work.

2.2.13 Contractor shall review and approve all the Contractor's and Subcontractor's submittals, such as Shop Drawings, Product Data, and samples, before submittal to the Architect/Engineer. The Contractor shall forward all such submittals to the Architect/Engineer for review and approval. The Architect/Engineer's actions shall be taken with such reasonable promptness as to cause no delay in the Work of the Contractor or activities of the Owner.

2.2.14 Upon receipt of submittal data from Contractor, Architect/Engineer shall review and approve, or take other appropriate action upon, Contractor's submittals such as Shop Drawings, Product Data, and Samples, and shall return the same to Contractor. Architect/Engineer's action shall be taken with reasonable promptness to cause no delay and, in any event, within seventeen (17) calendar days. Architect/Engineer's approval of a specific item in Contractor's submittals, such as Shop Drawings, Product Data, and Samples, shall not indicate approval of an assembly of which the item is a component.

2.2.15 Architect/Engineer shall prepare Change Orders for Owner's approval and execution in accordance with the Contract Documents. The Architect/Engineer shall indicate approval on Change Orders and Change Directives after consultation with the Owner.

2.2.16 Architect/Engineer shall assist the Owner in conducting observations to determine the dates of Substantial Completion and Final Completion. Architect/Engineer shall receive and forward to Owner for Owner's review written warranties and related documents required by the Contract Documents and assembled by Contractor, and shall issue a final Recommendation for Payment.

2.2.17 Architect/Engineer shall maintain, and shall give Owner access to, such records and correspondence with respect to the completion of the Project as is reasonably required by Owner and shall maintain schedules of the percentage of construction work done as an appropriate check for verification of requisitions for payment submitted by Contractor. The Architect/Engineer shall also review and make recommendations to the Owner with respect to any request for extensions of time to complete all or any part of the Project when the Contractor submits such requests.

2.2.18 At the request of the Owner, the Architect/Engineer shall review all cost-saving proposals submitted by the Contractor for their cost-saving value and consistency with the Contract Documents and shall forward the results of its review to the Owner for approval. Following the Owner's approval, the Architect/Engineer shall prepare a Change Order, and the Architect/Engineer shall make such revisions to the Drawings and Specifications as necessary to incorporate cost savings proposals of the Contractor, which are acceptable to the Owner and Architect/Engineer. Architect/Engineer shall approve all cost-saving proposals that are acceptable to the Owner and consistent with the intent of the Contract Documents. Architect/Engineer shall make all additions and revisions to the record drawings as required by the Owner, the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA"), and the Virginia Department of Aviation ("DOAV") and shall provide to each Owner, and where applicable, FAA and DOAV, one reproducible record set of Contract Documents on paper and one reproducible record set of Contract Documents in a computer-aided format acceptable to Owner.

2.2.19 Contractor shall prepare a progress schedule for the Work for review by the Architect/Engineer and approval by the Owner ("Project Schedule"). Architect/Engineer shall work closely with the Contractor to confirm that the Contractor's CPM Construction Schedule conforms to the Work Schedule throughout the Work.

2.2.20 The extent of the duties, responsibilities, and limitations of authority of the Architect/Engineer during construction, as set forth above and elsewhere in the Contract Documents, shall not be modified or extended without the written consent of the Owner and Architect/Engineer, respectively.

Capital Region Airport Commission General Conditions Page 7 of 34

2.2.21 In case of the termination of the employment of the Architect/Engineer, the Owner shall appoint another Architect/Engineer whose status under the Contract Documents shall be that of the former Architect/Engineer.

2.2.22 Inspectors employed by the Owner or Architect/Engineer shall be authorized to inspect all work done and all material furnished. Such inspection may extend to all or any part of the work and to the preparation, fabrication, or manufacture of the materials to be used. Inspectors are not authorized to revoke, alter, or waive any provision of the contract. Inspectors are not authorized to issue instructions contrary to the plans and specifications or to act as a foreman for the Contractor.

2.2.23 Inspectors employed by the Owner or Architect/Engineer are authorized to notify the Contractor or his/her representatives of any failure of the work or materials to conform to the requirements of the contract, plans, or specifications, and to reject such nonconforming materials in question until such issues can be referred to the Architect/Engineer for his/her decision.
