requires otherwise, Contractor shall: (1) immediately discontinue work on the date and to the extent specified in the Notice of Suspension; (2) place no further orders or
subcontracts for materials, services, or equipment; (3) promptly make every reasonable
effort to obtain suspension upon terms satisfactory to City of all orders, subcontracts, and
rental agreements to the extent that they relate to the performance of the work suspended;
and (4) continue to protect and maintain the Project, including those portions on which work has been suspended.
c. As compensation for the suspended work, Contractor will be reimbursed
for the following costs, reasonably incurred, without duplication of any item, and to the

keeping, to the extent required in the Notice of Suspension, Contractor’s organization and
Construction Agreement for Bogert Pool Main Drain Replacement Page 7 of 32
equipment committed to the Project in standby status; (2) all reasonably incurred costs
for the demobilization of Contractor’s and subcontractor’s crews and equipment; (3) an
equitable amount to reimburse Contractor for the cost to protect and maintain the Project
during the period of suspension; and (4) an equitable adjustment in the cost of performing the remaining portion of the work post-suspension if, as a direct result of the suspension,

Construction Project has increased or decreased.
d. Upon receipt of written notice by the City to resume the suspended work (“Notice to Resume Work”), Contractor shall immediately resume performance of the
suspended work as to the extent required in the Notice to Resume Work. Any claim by
Contractor for time or compensation described in Section 11(c) shall be made within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of the Notice to Resume Work and Contractor shall submit
a revised Construction Schedule for the City’s review and approval. Contractor’s failure to timely make such a claim shall result in a waiver of the claim.
e. No compensation described in Section 11(c) shall be paid and no
extension of time to complete the Construction Project shall be granted if the suspension
results from Contractor’s non-compliance with or breach of the terms or requirements of this Agreement.

Agreement and the Contractor’s right to proceed with all or any part of the Construction
Project (“Termination Notice Due to Contractor’s Fault”). The City may then take over
the Construction Project and complete it, either with its own resources or by re-letting the contract to any other third party, and may immediately take possession of and use such materials, appliances, tools, and equipment as may be on the site and which may be
necessary for the completion of the Construction Project.
b. In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 12, Contractor shall be entitled to payment only for those services Contractor actually rendered. In the case of a lump sum or unit price contract, Contractor shall not be entitled to any further payment
until the Construction Project has been completed. Upon completion of the Construction
Project, if the unpaid balance of the Contractor’s compensation exceeds the cost to the
City of completing the work, including all costs paid to any subcontractors or third parties retained by the City to complete the Construction Project and all administrative costs resulting from the termination (“City’s Cost for Completion”), such excess shall be
paid to the Contractor. If the City’s Cost for Completion exceeds the unpaid balance of
the Contractor’s compensation, then Contractor and its sureties shall be liable for and
shall pay the difference, plus interest at the rate applicable to court judgments, to the City.

terminate this Agreement by written notice to Contractor (“Notice of Termination for City’s Convenience”). The termination shall be effective in the manner specified in the
Notice of Termination for City’s Convenience and shall be without prejudice to any
claims that the City may otherwise have against Contractor.
b. Upon receipt of the Notice of Termination for City’s Convenience, unless otherwise directed in the Notice, the Contractor shall immediately cease work on the
Construction Project, discontinue placing orders for materials, supplies, and equipment
for the Construction Project, and make every reasonable effort to cancel all existing
orders or contracts upon terms satisfactory to the City. Contractor shall do only such
work as may be necessary to preserve, protect, and maintain work already completed, in progress, or in transit to the construction site.
c. In the event of a termination pursuant to this Section 13, Contractor is
entitled to payment only for those services Contractor actually rendered and materials
actually purchased or which Contractor has made obligations to purchase on or before the receipt of the Notice of Termination for City’s Convenience, and reasonably incurred
costs for demobilization of Contractor’s and any subcontractor’s crews. It is agreed that
any materials that City is obligated to purchase from Contractor will remain the City’s
sole property.
d. The compensation described in Section 13(c) is the sole compensation due
to Contractor for its performance of this Agreement. Contractor shall, under no
circumstances, be entitled to claim or recover consequential, special, punitive, lost
business opportunity, lost productivity, field office overhead, general conditions costs, or
lost profits damages of any nature arising, or claimed to have arisen, as a result of the termination.

Contractor shall not demand or be entitled to receive payment for any work on the
Construction Project, in whole or in part, except in the manner set forth herein. Pursuant to
Section 5.a, above, the City shall, upon invoice from the Contractor, make the Initial Payment.
The City will not withhold a Retainage Amount from the Initial Payment; however, the amount of the Initial Payment shall be included in the Total Compensation to which the Retainage
Amount applies.
Monthly Progress Payments
A. After the commencement of work on the Construction Project, the Contractor may
request monthly progress payments by submitting an Application for Payment to the City’s
Representative during each successive calendar month. The Application for Payment must be
based upon the actual or estimated percentage of work completed and materials supplied on the
Construction Project prior to the date of the Application and shall be filled out and signed by the Contractor shall attach all supporting documentation to the Application, including certified
payroll records and receipts, to verify that the work claimed in the Application has been
completed. Only one Application for Payment may be submitted within a calendar month.

Representative and signed by the Contractor stating that all previous monthly progress payments
received have been applied on account to discharge Contractor’s obligations associated with the
prior Applications for Payment.
C. City shall promptly review all Applications for Payment and, within twenty-one
(21) days after receipt of each Application, determine whether a progress payment should be
disapproved in whole or in part. An Application for Payment is considered to have been
received when it is submitted to City’s Representative and is considered approved unless prior to
the expiration of the 21-day period the City provides the Contractor with a written statement containing specific items that are being disapproved. A progress payment or any portion may be
disapproved upon a claim of: (1) unsatisfactory job progress; (2) failure to remedy defective
construction work or materials; (3) disputed work or materials; (4) failure to comply with
material provisions of this Agreement, drawings, plans, specifications for the Construction Project, or other required documents, including but not limited to, payroll certifications,
insurance coverage, bonding, lien releases, warranties, material certifications, and test data; (5)
failure of Contractor to make timely payment for claims including, but not limited to claims for
labor, equipment, materials, subcontracts, taxes, fees, professional services, rent, and royalties; (6) damages to the City; (7) the existence of reasonable evidence that the Agreement cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Agreement’s Compensation; and (8) Contractor’s non-
compliance with applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules, and ordinances.

disapproval that is listed in Section C above for which approval of the Application for Payment
Construction Agreement for Bogert Pool Main Drain Replacement Page 21 of 32
or a portion thereof is being withheld. If the City disapproves only a portion of an Application
for Payment, the remainder of the Application for Payment is considered approved.
E. If the City approves a monthly progress payment, the City shall withhold the five percent (5%) Retainage Amount from the total payment requested in the Application for
Payment and may withhold an amount that is sufficient to pay the direct expenses that the City
may reasonably expect will be necessary to correct any claim based on the eight (8) items set out
in Section C above. City shall tender the balance of the approved monthly progress payment to
Contractor within seven (7) days following the approval.

requires all contractors or subcontractors working on a publicly funded project to pay or have
withheld from earnings one percent (1%) of the gross contract price if the public contract price,
including subcontracts attached thereto, is Five Thousand Dollars ($5,000) or more. If required, the City will withhold this tax from any payment made to Contractor and will remit the amount
withheld to the Montana Department of Revenue. Contractor must withhold the tax from
payments made to subcontractors by Contractor.
G. City’s approval of any progress payment shall not operate as City’s acceptance of any portion of the Construction Project as complete or free of defects or nonconformities, nor
shall it operate as a waiver of Contractor’s obligations under the Agreement including, but not
limited to, Contractor’s testing and warranty obligations.
Final Payment
A. Upon completion of the Construction Project, Contractor shall submit a final
Application for Payment to the City’s Representative seeking payment of the remaining balance
of Contractor’s compensation, including all retainage amounts. Contractor shall attach all
supporting documentation and receipts to the final Application for Payment to verify that the Construction Project has been fully and finally completed in compliance with all terms and
conditions of the Agreement, including complete and legally effective releases or waivers of all
liens or encumbrances that have been filed against the Construction Project, and a consent from
all of Contractor’s sureties to final payment. In addition, Contractor shall include an Affidavit of
Payment of Debts and Claims as provided by the City’s Representative and signed by the Contractor stating that all previous monthly progress payments received have been applied on
account to discharge Contractor’s obligations associated with the Construction Project and that
the prior Applications for Payment and all claims asserted by any person arising from or related
to the Construction Project have been settled or satisfied. In the event any claims have not been
settled or satisfied, the Affidavit shall contain a complete listing of such claims, the name and address of each person making a claim, the facts and circumstances surrounding each claim, the
amount of each claim, and the efforts made to date by Contractor to resolve, settle or satisfy each
claim.
B. City shall promptly review the final Application for Payment and, within twenty-one (21) days after receipt of the request, determine whether it should be disapproved in whole
or in part. The final Application for Payment is considered to have been received when it is
Construction Agreement for Bogert Pool Main Drain Replacement Page 22 of 32
submitted to City’s Representative and is considered approved unless the City’s Representative
provides the Contractor with a written statement containing specific items that are being
disapproved prior to the expiration of the 21-day period. A final payment or any portion may be
disapproved upon a claim of: (1) unsatisfactory job progress; (2) after City’s final inspection of the Construction Project, Contractor has not completed all punch list items and failed to remedy
defective construction work or materials; (3) disputed work or materials; (4) failure to comply
with material provisions of this Agreement, drawings, plans, specifications for the Construction
Project, or other required documents including, but not limited to, payroll certifications,
insurance coverage, bonding, lien releases, warranties, material certifications, and test data; (5) failure of Contractor to make timely payment for claims including, but not limited to, claims for
labor, equipment, materials, subcontracts, taxes, fees, professional services, rent, and royalties;
(6) claims have been brought or liens have been filed against Contractor or the City related to the
Construction Project, or any such claims have not been properly documented in Contractor’s
Affidavit; (7) damage to the City; (8) Contractor has not delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, marked-up record documents, and any other documents relating to the Construction
Project as required by City; and (9) the Contractor is not in compliance with applicable federal,
state, and local laws, rules, and ordinances and has not remedied the noncompliance.
C. The City’s Representative will furnish Contractor a written statement specifying a reason for disapproval that is listed in Section B above for which approval of the final
Application for Payment or a portion thereof is being withheld. If the City disapproves only a
portion of an Application for Payment, the remainder of the Application for Payment is
considered approved.
D. Final payment is due and payable within fourteen (14) days of the City’s
Representative’s approval, but City may withhold an amount that is sufficient to pay the direct
expenses that the City may reasonably expect will be necessary to correct any claim based on the
nine (9) items set out in Section B above and any tax withholding required by law.

shall comply with the terms of the changed work as reflected in the Change Order.
B. City and Contractor shall negotiate in good faith for an agreement as to any increase or decrease in the Contractor’s compensation that results from any Change Order. The
increased or decreased Contractor’s compensation shall be set forth in the Change Order and
both the City and the Contractor shall sign the Change Order as an indication of their respective
acceptance of the changes and modifications to the Agreement. In the event the City and Contractor are unable to agree upon the increase or decrease in Contractor’s compensation resulting from any Change Order, such increase or decrease shall be determined as follows:

evidenced by Contractor’s submission to the City of its actual supporting documentation including time slips/cards, invoices, and receipts:
a. by unit prices otherwise set forth in the Agreement or subsequently agreed
upon;
b. by an agreed upon lump sum; or
c. by the cost of the work and an agreed upon mark-up for Contractor’s
overhead and profit, with the costs of the work determined as follows:
(i) Contractor’s actual, direct payroll expenses for the cost of labor. Payroll expenses shall only include actual gross wages paid, without any
deductions, withholding, or overhead. The agreed upon mark-up fee shall
cover Contractor’s liability insurance, workers’ compensation, and Social
Security taxes applicable to said wages, Contractor’s reasonable profit, the costs for the use of small tools and equipment not otherwise classified under heavy equipment use, and Contractor’s general overhead expenses.
(ii) Contractor’s actual cost of materials, including actual
transportation costs, for all materials supplied by Contractor. (iii) Costs for the use of heavy equipment and the transportation of the
same. Such costs shall be the actual rental fees incurred for the use of the
heavy equipment and the actual costs of transporting such heavy
equipment to and from the site of the Construction Project.
Construction Agreement for Bogert Pool Main Drain Replacement Page 24 of 32
2. Decreases to Contractor’s compensation shall be determined by the City’s good
faith estimate. If Contractor disagrees with such good faith estimate, Contractor can avail
itself of the Dispute Resolution provisions set forth in the Agreement.
C. Except for minor modifications in the work not involving an increase of costs or
Contractor’s compensation and not inconsistent with the purposes of the work required by the
Agreement, and except in an emergency situation which endangers life or property, no change to
the work requirements shall be made unless pursuant to a written Change Order duly executed.
D. Contractor shall not be entitled to any increase in the Contractor’s compensation
or the extension of any deadlines set forth in Construction Schedule with respect to any work
performed by Contractor that is not required by the terms and conditions of the Agreement and is
not contained in a duly executed Change Order.
