GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 35 of 48
9.2 Schedule of Values
9.2.1 Before submittal of the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to
Project Management, a schedule of values allocated to various portions of the Work, prepared
in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as Project Management
may require. This schedule, unless objected to by Project Management, shall be used as a
basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for Payment.
9.3 Applications for Payment
9.3.1 At least fifteen days before the date established for each progress payment, the
Contractor shall submit to Project Management an itemized Application for Payment for Work
completed in accordance with the schedule of values. Such application shall be notarized and
supported by such data substantiating the Contractor's right to payment as the Owner or Project
Management may require, such as copies of requisitions from Subcontractors and material
suppliers, and reflecting retainage if provided for elsewhere in the Contract Documents.
.1 Such applications may include request for payment on account of changes in the
Work which have been properly authorized by Construction Change Directives but not yet
included in Change Orders.
.2 Such applications may not include requests for payment of amounts the Contractor
does not intend to pay to a Subcontractor or material supplier because of a dispute or other
reason.
9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, payments shall be made on
account of materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent
incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be
made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in
writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon
compliance by the Contractor with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the
Owner's title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner's interest, and
shall include applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and
equipment stored off the site.
9.3.3 The Contractor warrants that title to all Work covered by an Application for Payment will
pass to the Owner no later than the time of payment. The Contractor further warrants that upon
submittal of an Application for Payment all Work for which approval for payment have been

knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens, claims security interests or
encumbrances in favor of the Contractor, Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or
entities making a claim by reason of having provided labor, materials and equipment relating to
the Work. All Subcontractors and Sub - subcontractors shall execute an agreement stating that
title will so pass, upon their receipt of payment from the Contractor. The warranties are for the
administrative convenience of the Owner only and do not create an obligation on the part of the
Owner to pay directly any unpaid subcontractor, laborer or materialmen. Such persons must
seek payment from the Contractor or his public construction bond surety only.
9.4 Approval for Payment
GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 36 of 48
9.4.1 Project Management will assemble a Project Application for Payment by combining the
Contractor's applications with similar applications for progress payments from other Contractors
and certify the amounts due on such applications.
9.4.2 After the Project Management's receipt of the Project Application for Payment, Project
Management will either approve the Application for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for
such amount as Project Management determine is properly due, or notify the Contractor in
writing of Project Management's reasons for withholding approval in whole or in part as provided
in Subparagraph 9.5.1.
9.4.3 The issuance of a separate Approval for Payment will constitute representations made
by Project Management to the Owner, based on their individual observations at the site and the
data comprising the Application for Payment submitted by the Contractor, that the Work has
progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of Project Management's knowledge,
information and belief, quality of the Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents. The
foregoing representations are subject to an evaluation of the Work for conformance with the
Contract Documents upon Substantial Completion, to results of subsequent tests and
inspections, to minor deviations from the Contract Documents correctable prior to completion
and to specific qualifications expressed by Project Management. The issuance of a separate
Approval for Payment will further constitute a representation that the Contractor is entitled to
payment in the amount approved. However, the issuance of a separate Approval for Payment
will not be a representation that Project Management has (1) made exhaustive or continuous
on -site inspections to check the quality or quantity of the Work, (2) reviewed the Contractor's
construction means, methods, techniques, sequences or procedures, (3) reviewed copies of
requisitions received from Subcontractors and material suppliers and other data requested by
the Owner to substantiate the Contractor's right to payment or (4) made examination to
ascertain how or for what purpose the Contractor has used money previously paid on account of
the Contract Sum.
9.5 Decisions to Withhold Approval
9.5.1 Project Management may decline to approve an Application for Payment if, in his
opinion, the application is not adequately supported. If the Contractor and Project Management
cannot agree on a revised amount, Project Management shall process the Application for the
amount it deems appropriate. Project Management may also decline to approve any
Application for Payment because of subsequently discovered evidence or subsequent
inspections. It may nullify, in whole or part, any approval previously made to such extent as may
be necessary in its opinion because of: (1) defective Work not remedied; (2) third party claims
filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims; (3) failure of the
Contractor to make payments properly to Subcontractors or for labor, materials, or equipment;
(4) reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the
Contract Sum; (5) damage to Project Management, the Owner, or another contractor working at
the project; (6) reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within the contract
time; (7) persistent failure to carry out the Work In accordance with the Contract Documents.
No payment shall be made to the Contractor until certificates of insurance or other evidence of
compliance by the Contractor, with all the requirements of Article 11, have been filed with the
Owner and Project Management.
9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding approval are removed, approval will be made
for amounts previously withheld.
GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 37 of 48
9.6 Progress Payments
9.6.1 After Project Management has issued an Approval for Payment, the Owner shall make
payment in the manner and within the time provided in the Contract Documents, and shall so
notify Project Management. From the total of the amount determined to be payable on a
progress payment, a retainage in accordance with the Florida Local Government Prompt
Payment Act, Chapter 218, Florida Statutes will be deducted and retained by the Owner until
the final payment is made. The balance of the amount payable, less all previous payments, shall
be approved for payment.
.1 It is understood and agreed that the Contractor shall not be entitled to demand or
receive progress payment based on quantities of Work in excess of those provided in the
proposal or covered by approved change orders, except when such excess quantities have
been determined by Project Management to be a part of the final quantity for the item of Work in
question.
.2 No progress payment shall bind the Owner to the acceptance of any materials or
Work in place, as to quality or quantity. All progress payments are subject to correction at the
time of final payments.
9.6.2 The Contractor shall promptly pay each Subcontractor, upon receipt of payment from the
Owner, out of the amount paid to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of
the Work, the amount to which said Subcontractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually
retained from payments to the Contractor on account of such Subcontractor's portion of the
Work. The Contractor shall, by appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, require each
Subcontractor to make payments to Sub- subcontractors in similar manner.
9.6.3 Project Management will, on request, furnish to a Subcontractor, if practicable,
information regarding percentages of completion or amounts applied for by the Contractor and
action taken thereon by the Owner and Project Management on account of portions of the Work
done by such Subcontractor.

the payment of money to a Subcontractor except as may otherwise be required by law.
9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in
Subparagraphs 9.6.2, 9.6.3 and 9.6.4.
9.6.6 A progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner
shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents.
9.6.7 All material and work covered by partial payments made shall thereupon become the
sole property of the Owner, and by this provision shall not be construed as relieving the
Contractor from the sole responsibility for the materials and Work upon which payments have
been made or the restoration for any damaged material, or as a waiver of the right of the Owner
or Project Management to require the fulfillment of all the terms of the Contract.
9.6.8 Except in case of bona fide disputes, or where the Contractor has some other justifiable
reason for delay, the Contractor shall pay for all transportation and utility services not later than

Contractor shall pay to each of his Subcontractors, not later than the end of the calendar month
in which each payment is made to the Contractor, the representative amount allowed the
GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 38 of 48

appropriate agreement with each Subcontractor, also require each Subcontractor to make
payments to his suppliers and Sub - subcontractors in a similar manner.
9.8 Substantial Completion
9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or
designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents
so the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use.
9.8.2 When the Contractor considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner
agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Contractor and Project Management
shall jointly prepare a comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected. The Contractor
shall proceed promptly to complete and correct items on the list. Failure to include an item on
such list does not alter the responsibility of the Contractor to complete all Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents. Upon receipt of the list, Project Management will make an
inspection to determine whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially
complete. If the inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the list, which is not
in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents, the Contractor shall, before
issuance of the Certificate of Substantial Completion, complete or correct such item upon
notification by Project Management. The Contractor shall then submit a request for another
inspection by Project Management, to determine Substantial Completion. When the Work or
designated portion thereof is substantially complete, Project Management will prepare a
Certificate of Substantial Completion, shall establish responsibilities of the Owner and
Contractor for security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and
shall fix the time within which the Contractor shall finish all items on the list accompanying the
Certificate. Warranties required by the Contract Documents shall commence on the date of
Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof unless otherwise provided in
the Certificate of Substantial Completion. The Certificate of Substantial Completion shall be
submitted to the Owner and Contractor for their written acceptance of responsibilities assigned
to them in such Certificate.
9.8.3 Upon Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof and upon
application by the Contractor and certification by Project Management, the Owner shall make
payment, reflecting adjustment in retainage, if any, for such Work or portion thereof as provided
in the Contract Documents.
9.9 Partial Occupancy or Use
9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work
at any stage when such portion is designated by separate agreement with the Contractor,
provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer as required under Subparagraph
11.3.1 and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work. Such partial
occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided
the Owner and Contractor have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them
for payments, retainage if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and
insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for correction of the Work and
commencement of warranties required by the Contract Documents. When the Contractor
considers a portion substantially complete, the Contractor and Project Management shall jointly
prepare a list as provided under Subparagraph 9.8.2. Consent of the Contractor to partial
occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work
UtNtKAL UUNDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 39 of 48
shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Contractor or, if no
agreement is reached, by decision of Project Management.
9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner, Project Management and
Contractor shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used in order
to determine and record the condition of the Work.
9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the
Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the
Contract Documents.
9.10 Final Completion and Final Payment
9.10.1 Upon completion of the Work, the Contractor shall forward to Project Management a
written Notice that the Work Is ready for final inspection and acceptance and shall also forward
to Project Management a final Contractor's Application for Payment. Upon receipt, Project
Management will promptly make such inspection. When Project Management, finds the Work
acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, Project
Management will promptly issue a final Approval for Payment stating that to the best of their
knowledge, information and belief, and on the basis of their observations and inspections, the
Work has been completed in accordance with terms and conditions of the Contract Documents
and that the entire balance found to be due the Contractor and noted in said final Approval is
due and payable. Project Management's final Approval for Payment will constitute a further
representation that conditions listed in Subparagraph 9.10.2 as precedent to the Contractor's
being entitled to final payment have been fulfilled.
9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining retained percentage shall become due until the
Contractor submits to Project Management (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and
equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the
Owner's property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have
been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the

GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 44 of 48
Documents, the Contractor shall pay such costs unless the condition was caused by the Owner

Documents, any of the Work is found to be not in accordance with the requirements of the
Contract Documents, the Contractor shall correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from
the Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Contractor a written acceptance

notice sell such materials and equipment at auction or at private sale and shall account for the
proceeds thereof, after deducting costs and damages that should have been borne by the
Contractor, including compensation for Project Management's services and expenses made

Documents. Establishment of the time period of one year as described in Subparagraph 12.2.2,
relates only to the specific obligation of the Contractor to correct the Work, and has no
relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the Contract Documents may
be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within Which proceedings may be commenced to
GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT Page 45 of 48
establish the Contractor's liability with respect to the Contractor's obligations other than
specifically to correct the Work.
12.3 Acceptance of Nonconforming Work
12.3.1 If the Owner prefers to accept Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of

§ 1 The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns to
the Owner for the performance of the Construction Contract, which is incorporated herein by reference.
§ 2 If the Contractor performs the Construction Contract, the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation under this Bond, except
when applicable to participate in a conference as provided in Section 3.
§ 3 If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety's obligation under this Bond shall arise after
.1 the Owner first provides notice to the Contractor and the Surety that the Owner is considering declaring a Contractor
Default. Such notice shall indicate whether the Owner is requesting a conference among the Owner, Contractor and
Surety to discuss the Contractor's performance. If the Owner does not request a conference, the Surety may, within
five (5) business days after receipt of the Owner's notice, request such a conference. If the Surety timely requests a
conference, the Owner shall attend. Unless the Owner agrees otherwise, any conference requested under this Section
3.1 shall be held within ten (10) business days of the Surety's receipt of the Owner's notice. If the Owner, the
Contractor and the Surety agree, the Contractor shall be allowed a reasonable time to perform the Construction
Contract, but such an agreement shall not waive the Owner's right, if any, subsequently to declare a Contractor
Default;
.2 the Owner declares a Contractor Default, terminates the Construction Contract and notifies the Surety; and
.3 the Owner has agreed to pay the Balance of the Contract Price in accordance with the terms of the Construction
Contract to the Surety or to a contractor selected to perform the Construction Contract:
§ 4 Failure on the part of the Owner to comply with the notice requirement in Section 3.1 shall not constitute a failure to comply with a
condition precedent to the Surety's obligations, or release the Surety from its obligations, except to the extent the Surety
demonstrates actual prejudice.
§ 5 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions of Section 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety's expense take one of the
following actions:
§ 5.1 Arrange for the Contractor, with the consent of the Owner, to perform and complete the Construction Contract;
§ 5.2 Undertake to perform and complete the Construction Contract itself, through its agents or independent contractors;
§ 5.3 Obtain bids or negotiated proposals from qualified contractors acceptable to the Owner for a contract for performance and
completion of the Construction Contract, arrange for a contract to be prepared for execution by the Owner and a contractor selected
with the Owner's concurrence, to be secured with performance and payment bonds executed by a qualified surety equivalent to the
bonds issued on the Construction Contract, and pay to the Owner the amount of damages as described in Section 7 in excess of the
Balance of the Contract Price incurred by the Owner as a result of the Contractor Default; or
§ 5.4 Waive its right to perform and complete, arrange for completion, or obtain a new contractor and with reasonable promptness
under the circumstances:
.1 After investigation, determine the amount for which it may be liable to the Owner and, as soon as practicable after
the amount is determined, make payment to the Owner; or
.2 Deny liability in whole or in part and notify the Owner, citing the reasons for denial.
§ 6 If the Surety does not proceed as provided in Section 5 with reasonable promptness, the Surety shall be deemed to be in default on
this Bond seven days after receipt of an additional written notice from the Owner to the Surety demanding that the Surety perform its
obligations under this Bond, and the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner. If the Surety proceeds as
provided in Section 5.4, and the Owner refuses the payment or the Surety has denied liability, in whole or in part, without further notice
the Owner shall be entitled to enforce any remedy available to the Owner.
2
§ 7 If the Surety elects to act under Section 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3, then the responsibilities of the Surety to the Owner shall not be greater than
those of the Contractor under the Construction Contract, and the responsibilities of the Owner to the Surety shall not be greater than
those of the Owner under the Construction Contract. Subject to the commitment by the Owner to pay the Balance of the Contract
Price, the Surety is obligated, without duplication, for
.1 the responsibilities of the Contractor for correction of defective work and completion of the Construction
Contract;
.2 additional legal, design professional and delay costs resulting from the Contractor's Default, and resulting from
the actions or failure to act of the Surety under Section 5; and
.3 liquidated damages, or if no liquidated damages are specified in the Construction Contract, actual damages caused
by delayed performance or non - performance of the Contractor.
§ 8 If the Surety elects to act under Section 5.1, 5.3 or 5.4, the Surety's liability is limited to the amount of this Bond.
§ 9 The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner or others for obligations of the Contractor that are unrelated to the Construction
Contract, and the Balance of the Contract Price shall not be reduced or set off on account of any such unrelated obligations. No
right of action shall accrue on this Bond to any person or entity other than the Owner or its heirs, executors, administrators,
successors and assigns.
§ 10 The Surety hereby waives notice of any change, including changes of time, to the Construction Contract or to related
subcontracts, purchase orders and other obligations.
§ 11 Any proceeding, legal or equitable, under this Bond may be instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction in the location in
which the work or part of the work is located and shall be instituted within two years after a declaration of Contractor Default or within
two years after the Contractor ceased working or within two years after the Surety refuses or fails to perform its obligations under
this Bond, whichever occurs first. If the provisions of this Paragraph are void or prohibited by law, the minimum period of limitation
available to sureties as a defense in the jurisdiction of the suit shall be applicable.
§ 12 Notice to the Surety, the Owner or the Contractor shall be mailed or delivered to the address shown on the page on which their
signature appears.
§ 13 When this Bond has been furnished to comply with a statutory or other legal requirement in the location where the
construction was to be performed, any provision in this Bond conflicting with said statutory or legal requirement shall be deemed
deleted here from and provisions conforming to such statutory or other legal requirement shall be deemed incorporated herein. When
so furnished, the intent is that this Bond shall be construed as a statutory bond and not as a common law bond.
§ 14 Definitions
§ 14.1 Balance of the Contract Price. The total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract after
all proper adjustments have been made, including allowance to the Contractor of any amounts received or to be received by the
Owner in settlement of insurance or other claims for damages to which the Contractor is entitled, reduced by all valid and proper
payments made to or on behalf of the Contractor under the Construction Contract.
§ 14.2 Construction Contract. The agreement between the Owner and Contractor identified on the cover page, including all
Contract Documents and changes made to the agreement and the Contract Documents.
§ 143 Contractor Default. Failure of the Contractor, which has not been remedied or waived, to perform or otherwise to comply with
a material term of the Construction Contract.
§ 14.4 Owner Default. Failure of the Owner, which has not been remedied or waived, to pay the Contractor as required under the
Construction Contract or to perform and complete or comply with the other material terms of the Construction Contract.
§ 14.5 Contract Documents. All the documents that comprise the agreement between the Owner and Contractor.
§ 15 If this Bond is issued for an agreement between a Contractor and subcontractor, the term Contractor in this Bond shall be
deemed to be Subcontractor and the term Owner shall be deemed to be Contractor.

§ 1 The Contractor and Surety, jointly and severally, bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns to
the Owner to pay for labor, materials and equipment furnished for use in the performance of the Construction Contract, which is
incorporated herein by reference, subject to the following terms.
§ 2 If the Contractor promptly makes payment of all sums due to Claimants, and defends, indemnifies and holds harmless the
Owner from claims, demands, liens or suits by any person or entity seeking payment for labor, materials or equipment furnished for
use in the performance of the Construction Contract, then the Surety and the Contractor shall have no obligation under this Bond.
§ 3 If there is no Owner Default under the Construction Contract, the Surety's obligation to the Owner under this Bond shall arise after
the Owner has promptly notified the Contractor and the Surety (at the address described in Section 13) of claims, demands, liens or
suits against the Owner or the Owner's property by any person or entity seeking payment for labor, materials or equipment furnished
for use in the performance of the Construction Contract and tendered
defense of such claims, demands, liens or suits to the Contractor and the Surety.
§ 4 When the Owner has satisfied the conditions in Section 3, the Surety shall promptly and at the Surety's expense defend,
indemnify and hold harmless the Owner against a duly tendered claim, demand, lien or suit.
§ 5 The Surety's obligations to a Claimant under this Bond shall arise after the following:
§ 5.1 Claimants, who do not have a direct contract with the Contractor,
.l have furnished a written notice of non - payment to the Contractor, stating with substantial accuracy the amount claimed
and the name of the party to whom the materials were, or equipment was, furnished or supplied or for whom the labor
was done or performed, within ninety (90) days after having last performed labor or last furnished materials or
equipment included in the Claim; and
.2 have sent a Claim to the Surety (at the address described in Section 13).
§ 5.2 Claimants, who are employed by or have a direct contract with the Contractor, have sent a Claim to the Surety (at the address
described in Section 13).
§ 6 If a notice of non - payment required by Section 5. 1.1 is given by the Owner to the Contractor, that is sufficient to satisfy a
Claimant's obligation to furnish a written notice of non - payment under Section 5.1.1.
§ 7 When a Claimant has satisfied the conditions of Sections 5.1 or 5.2, whichever is applicable, the Surety shall promptly and
at the Surety's expense take the following actions:
§ 7.1 Send an answer to the Claimant, with a copy to the Owner, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Claim, stating the
amounts that are undisputed and the basis for challenging any amounts that are disputed; and
§ 7.2 Pay or arrange for payment of any undisputed amounts.
§ 7.3 The Surety's failure to discharge its obligations under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2 shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver
of defenses the Surety or Contractor may have or acquire as to a Claim, except as to undisputed amounts for which the Surety and
Claimant have reached agreement. If, however, the Surety fails to discharge its obligations under Section 7.1 or Section 7.2, the
Surety shall indemnify the Claimant for the reasonable attorney's fees the Claimant incurs thereafter to recover any sums found
to be due and owing to the Claimant.
§ 8 The Surety's total obligation shall not exceed the amount of this Bond, plus the amount of reasonable attorney's fees provided
under Section 7.3, and the amount of this Bond shall be credited for any payments made in good faith by the Surety.
§ 9 Amounts owed by the Owner to the Contractor under the Construction Contract shall be used for the performance of the
Construction Contract and to satisfy claims, if any, under any construction performance bond. By the Contractor furnishing and the
Owner accepting this Bond, they agree that all funds earned by the Contractor in the performance of the Construction Contract are
dedicated to satisfy obligations of the Contractor and Surety under this Bond, subject to the Owner's priority to use the funds for the
completion of the work.
0
§ 10 The Surety shall not be liable to the Owner, Claimants or others for obligations of the Contractor that are unrelated to the
Construction Contract. The Owner shall not be liable for the payment of any costs or expenses of any Claimant under this Bond, and
shall have under this Bond no obligation to make payments to, or give notice on behalf of, Claimants or otherwise have any
obligations to Claimants under this Bond.
