THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into this ____ day of __________________, 2026

____________________. located at ______________________________________________

(the “Contractor”).

THEREFORE, upon mutual considerations described hereinafter, the Contractor and the

City (collectively the “Parties”) shall execute this Contract in five (5) counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I - THE WORK

The Contractor shall furnish all labor, materials, and equipment, and perform all of the work shown and called for on the Drawings and described in the Supplemental Specifications of City Contract as prepared by the City Engineer or designee, and shall comply with all provisions of the Contract.

The “Contract” is defined herein to include this document as well as the following: the Advertisement; Instructions to Bidders; Pricing Sheet; requisite Bonds; Drawings; Supplemental Specifications; General Conditions; and any other amendments, specifications, supplements agreed to by both Parties, all of the foregoing of which are incorporated herein by reference and made a part of this Contract.

It is agreed that the quantities of the anticipated concrete repairs can only be estimated and that the Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the City does not guarantee the amount of work that will be provided pursuant to this Contract.

ARTICLE II - TIME

Upon execution of this Contract, the Contractor shall begin work within 10 consecutive calendar days from the date of the Notice to Proceed and shall perform the work in such manner as to bring the entire work to completion within 90 Calendar Days, subject to timing exceptions that may be advanced in accordance with the provisions herein.

C-2

The commencement date, rate of progress, and date of completion are considered essential elements of the Contract. Parts 37 and 38 of the General Conditions portion of this contract shall apply to issues of work progress and completion time.

If the Contractor is unavoidably delayed in commencing or fulfilling this Contract due to excessive storms or floods, Acts of Providence, general strikes, court injunction, alterations to original scope of work, or directive from the City to stop work because of any emergency or public necessity, the Contractor shall have no valid claim for damages on account of any cause or delay; but Contractor shall in such case be entitled to an extension of the above time limit herein, as the City Engineer shall adjudge to be just and reasonable; provided, however that formal claim for such extension shall be made in writing by the Contractor within 72 hours after the date upon which such alleged cause or delay shall have occurred.

ARTICLE III – WARRANTY

Contractor shall warrant to the City that materials and equipment furnished under this Agreement will be of good quality and new unless otherwise permitted by the Contract documents, that all construction and related services provided hereunder shall be performed in a good and workmanlike manner, that the work shall be free of defects not inherent in the quality required or permitted by industry standards for projects of a similar type, and that the work be performed in accordance with the Contract terms, conditions, and standards, as well as all applicable laws, codes, and regulations.

The work performed pursuant to this Contract shall remain under warranty for a term of three (3) years after the date of final payment. Upon receipt of written notice from the City, all defective work shall be repaired and/or replaced within seven (7) days, or within a reasonable time thereafter, provided Contractor proceeds diligently with the repair and/or replacement work.

Any/all warranty work shall be performed by the Contractor at no additional cost to the City.

ARTICLE IV – DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS CLAUSE

In all improvement Contracts that exceed $75,000.00, if a surface or subsurface condition differs materially from those stated in this Contract, the Contractor shall promptly notify the City in writing before disturbing the physical condition of the property. If after prompt inspection by the City, any materially different condition increasing or decreasing the cost or time needed to perform the Contract is determined to exist, a written adjustment shall be made to modify the Contract. The Contractor will not be entitled to an adjustment if no notice of the materially differing condition is given in writing to the City, or if the Contractor has already received final payment under this Contract.

ARTICLE V - LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

It is expressly covenanted and agreed that response time is and shall be considered of the essence of the Contract. In the event that the Contractor shall fail to perform the entire work agreed to by or at the times herein mentioned or referred to in Article II, or within some other certain date subsequent to this to which the time limit for the completion of the work may have been advanced under the provisions of Article II, the Contractor shall pay unto the City as and for liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of $500.00 for each and every calendar day

C-3 that the Contractor shall be in default. Said sum of $500.00 per calendar day, in view of the difficulty of estimating such damages with exactness, is hereby expressly fixed and agreed upon as the damages which will be suffered by the City for reason of such defaults. It is also understood and agreed that the liquidated damages herein before mentioned are in lieu of the actual damages arising from such breaches of this Contract, which said sums the City shall have the right to deduct from any monies in his hands otherwise due or to become due to the Contractor or to sue for and recover compensation for damages for non-performance of this Contract at the time stipulated herein and provided.

ARTICLE VI – CITY’S RIGHT TO COMPLETE

It is agreed that if at any time the Contractor should abandon the work; or should be adjudged as bankrupt, or if the performance of this Contract is being unnecessarily or unreasonably delayed;

or if the Contractor should make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or a receiver should be appointed on account of Contractor’s insolvency; or if the Contractor should persistently or repeatedly fail to supply enough properly skilled workmen or sufficient materials for the work;

or should habitually fail to make prompt payment to subcontractors or to pay promptly for materials and labor; or should persistently disregard laws or ordinances or the directions of the City Engineer; or should willfully and repeatedly violate any of the substantial provisions of this Contract, then in such case the City, after giving the Contractor and Contractor’s sureties written notice thereof, may order the Contractor to discontinue all work under this Contract, or any part thereof. Thereupon, the Contractor shall at once discontinue such work or such part thereof and shall cease to have any right to the possession of the ground. The City shall have the right to finish the work, or part thereof, by Contract or otherwise as it may elect, and for that purpose to take possession and make use of such materials, tools, building appliances and equipment as may be found upon the work, and to charge the cost and expense of such completion to the Contractor.

The Contractor shall not be entitled to receive any further payment until the work is finished. If the unpaid balance of the Contract price shall exceed the expense of finishing the work, including compensation for additional managerial and administrative services, the amount of such excess shall be paid to the Contractor.

It is expressly stipulated and agreed that from and after the date of the order to discontinue work, and until such work shall have been finally completed by the City, neither the Contractor nor any of its agents or employees shall remove or make any effort directly or indirectly to remove any of the above mentioned materials, tools, building appliances or equipment from the points at which they were located on the date of said order, except upon the written consent of the City to do so.

It is further understood and agreed that the foregoing provisions of this article are without prejudice to any other right or remedy which the City may have under this Contract.

5. Sanctions for Noncompliance: In the event of the Contractor's noncompliance with the non-discrimination provisions of this Contract, the City shall impose such sanctions as it or the Federal Highway Administration deem appropriate, including, but not limited to:

a. Withholding payments to the Contractor under the Contract until the Contractor complies; and/or

b. Cancellation, termination or suspension of the Contract, in whole or in part.

6. Incorporation of Provisions: The Contractor shall include provisions of paragraphs (1) through (6) in every subcontract, including procurement of material and leases of equipment, unless exempt by the Regulations, or directives issued pursuant thereto. The Contactor shall take such action with respect to any subcontract or procurement as the State Highway Department or the Federal Highway Administration may direct as a means of enforcing such provisions including sanctions for noncompliance, provided, however, that, in the event a Contractor becomes involved in, or is threatened with, litigation with a subcontractor or supplier as a result of such direction, the Contractor may request the State Highway Department to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the State, and, in addition, the Contractor may request the United States to enter into such litigation to protect the interests of the United States.

ARTICLE VIII - ASSIGNMENT OF CONTRACT

It is agreed that the Contractor shall not assign or transfer this Contract or sublet any part of the work embraced in it, except with the written consent of the City to do so.

It is further agreed that all parts of the work which may be performed by a subcontractor shall be done in conformity with and be subject to all the provisions of the Contract documents exactly as if performed by the Contractor and his immediate employees and workmen. No subletting of the work shall in any way diminish or weaken the responsibility of the Contractor for all parts of the work or lessen his obligations and liabilities under this Contract. It is likewise agreed that the Contractor shall not assign, either legally or equitably, any of the monies payable to the Contractor under this Contract, or their claim thereto, except with the written consent of the City or to satisfy an unpaid claim.

ARTICLE IX - THE CONTRACT SUM

It is agreed that, in consideration of the faithful performance by the Contractor of work assigned by the City, under the terms of the Contract ________________________________________________________ consistent with the bid unit prices submitted by the Contractor specified in the Pricing Sheet, the amount paid to the Contractor for work done under the terms of this Contract shall not exceed _________________________________________________________ as approved by the City Council, based upon unit prices set forth in the Pricing Sheet.

Such an amount shall be modified by such sums for alterations as may have been determined under the provisions of the General Conditions herein, and diminished by such sums as the City may lawfully deduct and retain as liquidated damages under the provisions of Article IV of this Contract.

The Contractor shall submit written requests for monthly progress payments to the City Engineer by the 24th day of each month in accordance with Part 47 of the General Conditions portion of this Contract.

At about the close of each month the City Engineer will make an estimate of the amount and value of the work which has been satisfactorily done under this Contract during that month, or since the date of the last preceding estimate. Such estimate shall not be required to be made by strict measurement or with exactness, but may be made either wholly or in part by appraisement or estimation or by a consideration of accounts for labor and materials, and it shall be sufficient if it is approximate only. Any error or inaccuracy which may occur in any such progress estimate may be allowed for or corrected in any subsequent estimate.

It is agreed that before the Contractor shall demand partial or final estimates or payments, Contractor shall furnish to the City, if and when requested to do so, supported, if requested, by sworn statements, satisfactory evidence that all persons who have supplied labor, materials, or equipment for the work embraced under this Contract have been fully paid for the same; and that in case such evidence be not furnished as aforesaid, such sums as the City may deem necessary to meet the lawful claims of such persons may be retained by the City from any monies that may

C-6 be due or become due to the Contractor under this Contract until such liabilities shall be fully discharged and the evidence thereof be furnished to the City.

Each monthly progress payment request, including reasonable interest if requested in compliance with Public Act No. 524 of the Public Acts of 1980, shall be paid within one (1) of the following time periods, whichever is later:

a. Thirty (30) days after the City Engineer has certified that work is in place in the portion of the facility covered by the applicable request for payment in accordance with the Contract documents

b. Fifteen (15) days after the City has received the funds with which to make the progress payment from a department or agency of the Federal or State government, if any funds are to come from either of those sources.

Upon failure of the City to make a monthly progress payment, within the preceding time limits, the person designated by the Contractor to submit requests for progress payments may include reasonable interest on amounts past due in the next request for payment.

No progress estimate made or certified by the City Engineer and no partial payment made to the Contractor by the City shall be deemed or construed as an acceptance of any part of the work under this Contract. Any payment made to the Contractor by the City shall not release the Contractor from negligence or contractual liability on work performed.

As soon as practicable after the satisfactory completion of all work covered by this Contract, the City Engineer will make a final inspection of the work as a whole and will make up a final estimate of the total amount due the Contractor under the terms of the Contract. Upon the acceptance of the completed work, the City will pay to the Contractor the entire amount of such final estimate, less the sums previously paid and less such sums as the City may deem to be necessary to meet the undischarged obligations of the Contractor, for labor, materials or equipment furnished for the work. The Contractor shall file with the City a sworn statement that all claims for amounts due for labor, materials and equipment furnished for this work have been paid in full, or Contractor shall so file in lieu thereof, a sworn statement showing in detail the nature and amount of all unpaid claims for said labor, materials and equipment.

ARTICLE X - ANTICIPATED CONDITIONS AND WORK BY OTHERS

The Contractor further acknowledges that Contractor is not entitled to any additional compensation by reason of conditions being different from those anticipated or by reason of Contractor’s failing to fully acquaint itself with the site, the conditions, and the work now in place or on account of interference by the City or by any other Contractor’s activities which affect the work of this Contract.

ARTICLE XI - MISCELLANEOUS

The Contractor acknowledges that Contractor has not received or relied upon any representations or warranties of any nature whatsoever from the City of Warren, its agents or employees, and that this Contract is entered into solely upon the Contractor’s own independent business judgment.
