| 3.2.1 | Change in Scope of Work. Any change in the scope of the Work, method of performance, nature of materials or price thereof, or any other matter materially affecting the performance or nature of the Work shall not be paid for or accepted unless such change, addition or deletion is approved in writing by a valid change order executed by the Stadium Manager. Should Contractor request a change order due to unforeseen circumstances affecting the performance of the Work, such request shall be made within five (5) business days of the date such circumstances are discovered or shall waive its right to request a change order due to such circumstances. If the Parties cannot agree on any change in price required by such change in the Work, the Stadium Manager may direct the Contractor to proceed with the performance of the change on a time and materials basis. |
| 3.2.2 | Substitutions/“Or Equal”. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 3400(b), the Stadium Manager may make a finding that designates certain products, things, or services by specific brand or trade name. Unless specifically designated in this Contract, whenever any material, process, or article is indicated or specified by grade, patent, or proprietary name or by name of manufacturer, such Specifications shall be deemed to be used for the purpose of facilitating the description of the material, process or article desired and shall be deemed to be followed by the words “or equal.” |
Contractor may, unless otherwise stated, offer for substitution any material, process or article which shall be substantially equal or better in every respect to that so indicated or specified in this Contract. However, the Stadium Manager may have adopted certain uniform standards for certain materials, processes and articles. Contractor shall submit requests, together with substantiating data, for substitution of any “or equal” material, process or article no later than thirty-five (35) days after award of the Contract. To facilitate the repair schedule and sequencing, some requests may need to be submitted before thirty-five (35) days after award of Contract. Provisions regarding submission of “or equal” requests shall not in any way authorize an extension of time for performance of this Contract. If a proposed “or equal” substitution request is rejected, Contractor shall be responsible for providing the specified material, process or article. The burden of proof as to the equality of any material, process or article shall rest with Contractor.
The Stadium Manager has the complete and sole discretion to determine if a material, process or article is an “or equal” material, process or article that may be substituted. Data required to substantiate requests for substitutions of an “or equal” material, process or article data shall include a signed affidavit from Contractor stating that, and describing how, the substituted “or equal” material, process or article is equivalent to that specified in every way except as listed on the affidavit. Substantiating data shall include any and all illustrations, specifications, and other relevant data including catalog information which describes the requested substituted “or equal” material, process or article, and substantiates that it is an “or equal” to the material, process or article. The substantiating data must also include information regarding the durability and lifecycle cost of the requested substituted “or equal” material, process or article. Failure to submit all the required substantiating data, including the signed affidavit, to the Stadium Manager in a timely fashion will result in the rejection of the proposed substitution.
Contractor shall bear all of the Stadium Manager’s costs associated with the review of substitution requests. Contractor shall be responsible for all costs related to a substituted “or equal” material, process or article. Contractor is directed to the Special Conditions (if any) to review any findings made pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 3400.

| 3.5 | Control and Payment of Subordinates; Contractual Relationship. Stadium Manager retains Contractor on an independent contractor basis and Contractor is not an employee of Stadium Manager. Any additional personnel performing the work governed by this Contract on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Contractor’s exclusive direction and control. Contractor shall pay all wages, salaries, and other amounts due such personnel in connection with their performance under this Contract and as required by law. Contractor shall be responsible for all reports and obligations respecting such additional personnel, including, but not limited to: social security taxes, income tax withholding, unemployment insurance, and workers’ compensation insurance. |
| 3.6 | Stadium Manager’s Basic Obligation. Stadium Manager agrees to engage and does hereby engage Contractor as an independent contractor to furnish all materials and to perform all Work according to the terms and conditions herein contained for the sum set forth above. Except as otherwise provided in the Contract, the Stadium Manager shall pay to Contractor, as full consideration for the satisfactory performance by Contractor of the services and obligations required by this Contract, the below-referenced compensation in accordance with compensation provisions set forth in the Contract. |
| 3.7 | Compensation and Payment. |
| 3.7.1 | Amount of Compensation. As consideration for performance of the Work required herein, Contractor shall receive compensation, including authorized reimbursements, for all Work rendered under this Contract at the rates set forth in Exhibit “G” attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. The maximum compensation for Work to be provided pursuant to each Task Order shall be set forth in the relevant Task Order. The total compensation to be provided under this Contract by Stadium Manager to Contractor, in the aggregate, shall not exceed Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000.00) (“Total Contract Price”) per contract year without the written approval of the Stadium Manager. |
| 3.7.2 | Payment of Compensation. Contractor shall submit to Stadium Manager a monthly itemized statement which indicates Work completed by Contractor in a format acceptable to the Stadium Manager. The statement shall describe the amount of Work and supplies provided since the initial commencement date, or since the start of the subsequent billing periods, as appropriate, through the date of the statement. These statements shall be supported by evidence which is required by this Contract and such other documentation as the Stadium Manager may require. The Contractor shall certify that the Work for which payment is requested has been done and that the materials listed are stored where indicated. |
| 3.7.3 | Prompt Payment. Stadium Manager shall review and pay all progress payment requests in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 20104.50 of the California Public Contract Code. However, no progress payments will be made for Work not completed in accordance with this Contract. Contractor shall comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations relating to the proper payment of its employees, subcontractors, suppliers or others. |
3.7.4 Deductions and Withholdings. The Stadium Manager may deduct from each progress payment an amount necessary to protect Stadium Manager from loss because of: (1) liquidated damages which have accrued as of the date of the application for payment; (2) any sums expended by the Stadium Manager in performing any of Contractor’s obligations under the Contract which Contractor has failed to perform or has performed inadequately; (3) defective Work not remedied; (4) stop notices as allowed by state law; (5) reasonable doubt that the Work can be completed for the unpaid balance of the Total Contract Price or within the scheduled completion date; (6) unsatisfactory prosecution of the Work by Contractor; (7) unauthorized deviations from the Contract; (8) failure of Contractor to maintain or submit on a timely basis proper and sufficient documentation as required by the Contract or by Stadium Manager during the prosecution of the Work; (9) erroneous or false estimates by Contractor of the value of the Work performed; (10) any sums representing expenses, losses, or damages as determined by the Stadium Manager, incurred by the Stadium Manager for which Contractor is liable under the Contract; and (11) any other sums which the Stadium Manager is entitled to recover from Contractor under the terms of the Contract or pursuant to state law, including Section 1727 of the California Labor Code. The failure by the Stadium Manager to deduct any of these sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of the Stadium Manager’s right to such sums.
| 3.7.5 | Substitutions for Contract Deductions and Withholdings. In accordance with California Public Contract Code Section 22300, the Stadium Manager will permit the substitution of securities for any monies withheld by the Stadium Manager to ensure performance under the Contract. At the request and expense of Contractor, securities equivalent to the amount withheld shall be deposited with the Stadium Manager, or with a state or federally chartered bank in California as the escrow agent, and thereafter the Stadium Manager shall then pay such monies to Contractor as they come due. Upon satisfactory completion of the Contract, the securities shall be returned to Contractor. For purposes of this Section and Section 22300 of the Public Contract Code, the term “satisfactory completion of the contract” shall mean the time the Stadium Manager has issued written final acceptance of the Work and filed a Notice of Completion as required by law and provisions of this Contract. Contractor shall be the beneficial owner of any securities substituted for monies withheld and shall receive any interest thereon. The escrow agreement used for the purposes of this Section shall be in the form provided by the Stadium Manager. |
| 3.7.6 | Title to Work. As security for partial, progress, or other payments, title to Work for which such payments are made shall pass to the Stadium Manager, or its designee, at the time of payment. To the extent that title has not previously been vested in the Stadium Manager, or its designee, by reason of payments, full title shall pass to the Stadium Manager, or its designee, at delivery of the Work at the destination and time specified in this Contract. Such transferred title shall in each case be good, free and clear from any and all security interests, liens, or other encumbrances. Contractor promises and agrees that it will not pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise encumber the items in any manner that would result in any lien, security interest, charge, or claim upon or against said items. Such transfer of title shall not imply acceptance by the Stadium Manager or its designee, nor relieve Contractor from the responsibility to strictly comply with the Contract, and shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for any loss of or damage to items. |
| 3.7.7 | Labor and Material Releases. Contractor shall furnish Stadium Manager with labor and material releases from all subcontractors performing work on, or furnishing materials for, the Work governed by this Contract prior to final payment by Stadium Manager. |
| 3.78 | Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 1720 et seq., and 1770 et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 16000 et seq., (“Prevailing Wage Laws”), which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on “public works” and “maintenance” projects. Since the Work is being performed as part of an applicable “public works” or “maintenance” project, as defined by the Prevailing Wage Laws, and since the total compensation is $1,000 or more, Contractor agrees to fully comply with such Prevailing Wage Laws. Stadium Manager shall provide Contractor with a copy of the prevailing rates of per diem wages in effect at the commencement of this Contract. Contractor shall make copies of the prevailing rates of per diem wages for each craft, classification or type of worker needed to execute the Work available to interested parties upon request, and shall post copies at Contractor’s principal place of business and at the project site. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties (defined below) free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. Contractor and any subcontractor shall forfeit a penalty of up to $200 per calendar day or portion thereof for each worker paid less than the prevailing wage rates. |
| 3.7.9 | Apprenticeable Crafts. When Contractor employs workmen in an apprenticeable craft or trade, Contractor shall comply with the provisions of Section 1777.5 of the California Labor Code with respect to the employment of properly registered apprentices upon public works. The primary responsibility for compliance with said Section for all apprenticeable occupations shall be with Contractor. The Contractor or any subcontractor that is determined by the Labor Commissioner to have knowingly violated Section 1777.5 shall forfeit as a civil penalty an amount not exceeding $100 for each full calendar day of noncompliance, or such greater amount as provided by law. |
| 3.7.10 | Hours of Work. Contractor is advised that eight (8) hours labor constitutes a legal day’s work. Pursuant to Section 1813 of the California Labor Code, Contractor shall forfeit a penalty of $25.00 per worker for each day that each worker is permitted to work more than eight (8) hours in any one calendar day and forty (40) hours in any one calendar week, except when payment for overtime is made at not less than one and one‑half (1‑1/2) times the basic rate for that worker. |
| 3.7.11 | Payroll Records. Contractor and each subcontractor shall keep an accurate payroll record, showing the name, address, social security number, work classification, straight time and overtime hours worked each day and week, and the actual per diem wages paid to each journeyman, apprentice, worker, or other employee employed by him or her in connection with the public work. The payroll records shall be certified and shall be available for inspection at all reasonable hours at the principal office of Contractor in the manner provided in Labor Code Section 1776. In the event of noncompliance with the requirements of this Section, Contractor shall have 10 days in which to comply subsequent to receipt of written notice specifying in what respects such Contractor must comply with this Section. Should noncompliance still be evident after such 10-day period, Contractor shall, as a penalty, forfeit not more than $100.00 for each calendar day or portion thereof, for each worker, until strict compliance is effectuated. The amount of the forfeiture is to be determined by the Labor Commissioner. A contractor who is found to have violated the provisions of law regarding wages on Public Works with the intent to defraud shall be ineligible to bid on Public Works contracts for a period of one to three years as determined by the Labor Commissioner. Upon the request of the Division of Apprenticeship Standards or the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, such penalties shall be withheld from progress payments then due. The responsibility for compliance with this Section is on Contractor. The requirement to submit certified payroll records directly to the Labor Commissioner under Labor Code Section 1771.4 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Section 1771.4. |
3.7.12 Contractor and Subcontractor Registration. Pursuant to Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and subcontractors that wish to bid on, be listed in a bid proposal, or enter into a contract to perform public work must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. No bid will be accepted nor any contract entered into without proof of the contractor’s and subcontractors’ current registration with the Department of Industrial Relations to perform public work. Contractor is directed to review, fill out and execute the Public Works Contractor Registration Certification attached hereto as Exhibit “E” prior to contract execution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the contractor registration requirements mandated by Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1 shall not apply to work performed on a public works project that is exempt pursuant to the small project exemption specified in Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1.
3.7.13 Labor Compliance; Stop Orders. This Project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations. It shall be the Contractor’s sole responsibility to evaluate and pay the cost of complying with all labor compliance requirements under this Contract and applicable law. Any stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor that affect Contractor’s performance of Work, including any delay, shall be Contractor’s sole responsibility. Any delay arising out of or resulting from such stop orders shall be considered Contractor caused delay subject to any applicable liquidated damages and shall not be compensable by the Stadium Manager. Contractor shall defend, indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties (defined below) free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of stop orders issued by the Department of Industrial Relations against Contractor or any subcontractor.

| 3.8.1.6 | Reservation of Right to Defend. Stadium Manager reserves the right to defend any enforcement action brought against the Stadium Manager for Contractor’s failure to comply with the Permit or any other relevant water quality law, regulation, or policy.

Safety precautions as applicable shall include, but shall not be limited to, adequate life protection and lifesaving equipment; adequate illumination for underground and night operations; instructions in accident prevention for all employees, such as machinery guards, safe walkways, scaffolds, ladders, bridges, gang planks, confined space procedures, trenching and shoring, fall protection and other safety devices, equipment and wearing apparel as are necessary or lawfully required to prevent accidents or injuries; and adequate facilities for the proper inspection and maintenance of all safety measures. Furthermore, Contractor shall prominently display the names and telephone numbers of at least two medical doctors practicing in the vicinity of the Project, as well as the telephone number of the local ambulance service, adjacent to all telephones at the Project site. | |
| 3.8.3 | Laws and Regulations. Contractor shall keep itself fully informed of and in compliance with all local, state and federal laws, rules and regulations in any manner affecting the performance of the Contract or the Work, including all Cal/OSHA requirements, and shall give all notices required by law.
