NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, it is agreed by and between the Contractor and the City as follows:

1.5.1 Nothing contained in this Contract shall create, or be interpreted to create, privity or any other contractual agreement between the City and any person or entity other than the Contractor.

1.6 Intent and Interpretation

1.6.1 The intent of this Contract is to require complete, correct and timely execution of the Work. Any Work that may be required, implied or inferred by the Contract Documents, or any one or more of them, as necessary to produce the intended result shall be provided by the Contractor for the Contract Price, as hereinafter defined.

1.6.2 This Contract is intended to be an integral whole and shall be interpreted as internally consistent.

What is required by any one Contract Document shall be considered as required by the Contract.

1.6.3 When a word, term or phrase is used in this Contract, it shall be interpreted or construed, first, as defined herein; second, if not defined, according to its generally accepted meaning in the construction industry; and third, if there is no generally accepted meaning in the construction industry, according to its common and customary usage.

1.6.4 The words include, includes, or including, as used in this Contract, shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase, without limitation.

1.6.5 The specification herein of any act, failure, refusal, omission, event, occurrence or condition as constituting a material breach of this Contract shall not imply that any other, non-specified act, failure, refusal, omission, event, occurrence or condition shall be deemed not to constitute a material breach of this Contract.

HOWEVER, THE CITY MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER TO THE CONTRACTOR CONCERNING THE DOCUMENTS FOR THE PROJECT, INCLUDING THE DRAWINGS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR THE PROJECT. By the execution hereof, the Contractor acknowledges and represents that it has received, reviewed and carefully examined such documents, has found them to be complete, accurate, adequate, consistent, coordinated and sufficient for construction, and that the Contractor has not, does not, and will not rely upon any representation or warranties by the City concerning such documents as no such representation or warranties have been or are hereby made.

When the City reasonably believes that Substantial Completion will be inexcusably delayed, the City shall be entitled, but not required, to withhold from any amounts otherwise due the Contractor an amount then believed by the City to be adequate to recover liquidated damages applicable to such delays. If and when the Contractor overcomes the delay in achieving Substantial Completion, or any part thereof, for which the City has withheld payment, the City shall promptly release to the Contractor those funds withheld, but no longer applicable, as liquidated damages.
