Said date is ______________________________.

CONTRACTOR further agrees in the event that any or all of the Project improvements fail to conform to the Contract Documents or require any rebuilding, construction, or reconstruction to keep Project improvements in conformity with the Contract Documents or to bring Project improvements up to the Contract Document Specifications that CONTRACTOR will pay all necessary, reasonable and normal costs whatsoever, incurred by the City of Show Low in repairing, construction, reconstruction, or rebuilding any of the Project improvements which at any time within the above mentioned period of two years are not in conformity with the Contract Documents. These costs shall also include the repair or replacement of other work or materials damaged or affected by making the above repairs or corrective action.

Provided, however: That the City of Show Low shall give written notice to CONTRACTOR that the City of Show Low intends to perform work on the Project improvements and that said notice shall specify the improvement, its location, and the cause or kind of nonconformity with reference to the relevant Contract Documents. Said notice shall be sent to CONTRACTOR by registered mail, and CONTRACTOR given 15 days upon receipt of said notice to begin work before the City begins any work or incurs any cost unless an emergency situation occurs. The occurrence of any emergency shall be determined in the reasonable discretion of the Public Works Director of the City of Show Low and is declared to be an event which renders advance notice contrary to the health, safety, or welfare of the residents of the City of Show Low. In case the Public Works Director finds the existence of an emergency requiring immediate action, they shall serve notice to CONTRACTOR in the form above mentioned as soon as practical and shall include an explanation of the state of affairs requiring emergency action.

Provided, further: That unless the CONTRACTOR begins rectification of the deficiency of warranty within the 15 day period and completes it in a reasonable time and manner satisfactorily to the Public Works Director, the obligation of CONTRACTOR shall be to compensate the City of Show Low for bringing any improvements up to the Contract Document Specifications, and this obligation shall cover all work necessary to bring the improvement into conformity, even if the work occurs after the expiration of the two year period specified above if the City sent notice as provided above within the two year period, or in the case of any emergency as provided above if the City actually began work on the improvement within the two year period.

Should legal action be necessary in order for the City to be compensated by the CONTRACTOR for costs and expenses of bringing the warrantied deficiencies into

A-20 conformity, CONTRACTOR agrees to pay all attorney fees, costs, and expenses incurred by the City.

In case of work, materials, or equipment for which warranties are required by the Special Provisions, the CONTRACTOR shall provide or secure from the appropriate subcontractor or supplier such warranties addressed to and in favor of the OWNER and deliver same to the PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR prior to final acceptance of Work.

Deliveries of such warranties shall not relieve the CONTRACTOR from any obligation assumed under any other provisions of the Contract.
