EXHIBIT 9
Supplemental General Conditions
The following Supplemental General Conditions (“SGC”) modify the State of Oregon General Conditions for Public Improvement
Contracts, January1, 2012 Edition (the “General Conditions”) for this Contract. Where a portion of the General Conditions is modified by these Supplemental General Conditions, the unaltered portions shall remain in effect.
SGC-1 Add the following definitions to Section A.1 Definition of Terms:
ON-SITE WORK, means any Work taking place on the Project Site, including designated staging areas adjacent to the Project
Site, except for installation of covered temporary signs according to Section 00225 of the Oregon Standard Specifications for
Construction.
PROJECT SITE, means the geographical dimensions of the real property on which the Work is to be performed, including designated contiguous staging areas.
PROPOSAL REQUEST (“PR”), as initiated by Owner, means a written request by Owner to Contractor to quote a change to the Contract Price or Contract Period, or both, caused by a proposed change to the Contract Documents. As initiated by
Contractor, PR means a written request by Contractor to the Owner’s Authorized Representative proposing a change to Contract
Documents accompanied by a quotation for change to the Contract Price or Contract Period, or both.
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (“RFI”), means a written request submitted by Contractor to the Owner’s Authorized
Representative on a standard form requesting interpretation of Contract Documents. An RFI may only be used as a vehicle for confirming or verifying an issue through an interpretation of the Contract Documents when the Contractor is unable to determine from the Contract Documents the material, process, system, or Work to be installed; responses that result in change to Contract Documents and adjustment to the Contract Price or Contract Period must be documented in a written Amendment.
SGC-2 Add the following after A.3.4 under INTERPRETATION OF CONTRACT DOCUMENTS:
A.3.5 The characterization of provisions of the Contract as material provisions or the failure to comply with certain provisions as a material breach of the Contract shall in no way be construed to mean that any other provisions of the Contract are not material or that failure to comply with any other provisions is not a material breach of the Contract.
A.3.6 Should any Plans or Specifications provided by the Owner, that Contractor is required to utilize for any aspect of the
Work, fail to particularly describe the materials, kind of goods, or details of construction, Contractor shall inquire of the Owner as to what is required, prior to utilization of the Plans and Specifications in performing the affected Work. Absent Owner-supplied Specifications to the contrary, the materials, construction methods, and processes that would normally be used by the
Contractor to produce first-quality finished Work are considered a part of the Contract requirements.
A.3.7 Electronic Signatures. Contractor and Owner agree that signatures showing on PDF documents, including but not limited to PDF copies of the Contract, bonds, Change Orders and amendments, submitted or received via email, when submittal or receipt in that manner is required or allowed by Owner are “Electronic Signatures” under ORS Chapter 84 and bind the signing party and are intended to be and can be relied upon by the parties. Owner reserves the right at any time to require
Contractor to deliver the hard copy originals of any documents.
SGC-3 Section B.2 CONTRACTOR’S MEANS AND METHODS; MITIGATION OF IMPACTS Subsection B.2.1 is revised to read as follows:

Any increased cost or time resulting from means and methods which were the basis of Contractor’s bid and the resulting
Contract Price that are infeasible due to site conditions (other than concealed conditions beyond the control of
Contractor), shall be the sole responsibility of the Contractor. If the Contract Documents give specific instructions concerning construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, the Contractor shall evaluate the jobsite
