It is agreed that in the event asbestos material is knowingly or unknowingly removed or disturbed in any manner at the jobsite, you will monitor our work place and prior to and during our manning of the job, you will certify that asbestos in the environment does not exceed .01 fibers per cc as tested by NIOSH 7400. In the event our employees or those of our subcontractors are exposed to an asbestos hazard, PCP’s, lead or other hazardous substances, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us harmless from all damages, claims, suits, expenses, and payments resulting from such exposure. Identification, notification, removal and disposal of asbestos containing material, PCP’s lead or other hazardous substances are the responsibility of the purchaser and/or owner representative. 2. TK Elevator will perform all tests described herein during regular working hours of regular working days as is customary in the elevator industry. Should the Purchaser require performance of these tests outside the regular working hours of regular working days as is customary in the elevator industry, TK Elevator will provide Purchaser with a separate and additional proposal to accomplish those tasks at those times at an additional cost. 3. TK Elevator shall not be liable for any damage to the building structure or the elevator resulting from the performance of any tests it shall perform at any time under this Proposal. 4. Upon notice from TK Elevator that the work described herein has been completed, Purchaser will arrange to complete an inspection of the work with TK Elevator and will provide Purchaser's final acceptance thereof in writing by Purchaser's duly authorized representative at that time if the work is acceptable. The date and time for such an inspection shall be mutually agreed upon. In no event shall that inspection occur more than ten (10) business days after the date of TK Elevator's written notice to Purchaser that the work herein has been completed unless both parties agree otherwise in writing. Immediately following its inspection of the work, Purchaser's duly authorized representative shall execute TK Elevator's "Final Acceptance" form(s) prior to turnover and use of the equipment described in this Proposal. Purchaser shall not unreasonably delay or withhold such final inspection or its written acceptance of the work. 5. Spare Parts are not included in our bid pricing unless otherwise clarified. 6. Contractor's price is based on labor and material prices projected to be in effect when elevator is scheduled to be installed. In the event that schedule changes or construction delays postpone installation and/or adjustment of the elevator, providing delay has not been caused by Contractor, Contractor reserves the right to increase the contract price by the actual amount of increase in material and/or labor costs resulting from aforementioned delay. 7. In the event of termination for convenience, Contractor shall be paid the proportional contract value of work performed including contract value of materials in process of fabrication, in transit, stored at jobsite or at other storage location. 8. Any additional amount, including change orders, is due at the time of completion and approval by the local authority having jurisdiction (if applicable), but prior to turnover of the equipment by TK Elevator to the Purchaser for use. If there is more than one unit that is the subject of this Proposal, final payment shall be made separately as each unit is completed. 9. TK Elevator shall retain exclusive ownership and control over all equipment installed and/or modernized pursuant to this project until such time as Purchaser has paid TK Elevator 100% of the full Proposal amount set forth on page 1 as modified by options/alternates (if applicable) along with all applicable change orders. Purchaser agrees to waive any and all claims to the turnover and/or use of that equipment until such time as those amounts are paid in full.

Any payments not paid when due shall bear interest at 1 1/2 % per month or the highest legal rate, whichever is less. 11. In the event the Purchaser defaults on any payment, or on any other provision of this Proposal, the unpaid balance of the Proposal price (including any change orders), less the cost of completing the work, as estimated by TK Elevator, shall immediately become due and payable. Contractor reserves the right to review and amend any forthcoming documents not provided herein, as needed.
