Such changes shall be effected by written order issued through Project Management and shall be binding on the Owner and Contractor. The Contractor shall carry out such written order promptly. ARTICLE 8 TIME 8.1 Definitions 8.1.1 Unless otherwise provided, Contract Time is the period of time, including authorized adjustments, allotted in the Contract Documents for Substantial Completion of the Work. 8.1.2 The date of commencement of the Work is the date established in the Agreement. The date shall not be postponed by the failure to act of the Contractor or of persons or entities for whom the Contractor is responsible. 8.1.3 The date of Substantial Completion is the date certified by Project Management in accordance with Paragraph 9.8. 8.1.4 The term "day" as used in the Contract Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined. 8.1.5 The Owner/Project Management shall be the final judge as to whether Substantial Completion has been achieved and certifies the date to the Contractor and Architect. 8.2 Progress and Completion 8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence of the Contract. By executing the Agreement the Contractor confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work. 8.2.2 The Contractor shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, prematurely commence operations on the site or elsewhere prior to the effective date of insurance required by Article 11 to be furnished by the Contractor. The date of commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such insurance. 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 21 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION 8.2.3 The Contractor shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the Contract Time. 8.3 Delays and Extensions of Time 8.3.1 If the Contractor is delayed, at any time, in the progress of the Work by any act or neglect of the Owner, Project Management, or the Architect/Engineer, or by any employee of either, or by any separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by fire, unusual delay in transportation, adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable casualties or any causes beyond the Contractor's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner, Project Management, or by any other cause which Project Management determines may justify the delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by no cost Change Order for such reasonable time as Project Management may determine, in accordance with subparagraph 6.2.7. 8.3.2 Any claim for extension of time shall be made in writing to Project Management not more than Seventy-two (72) hours after the commencement of the delay in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise it shall be waived. Any claim for extension of time shall state the cause of the delay and the number of days of extension requested. If the cause of the delay is continuing, only one claim is necessary, but the Contractor shall report the termination of the cause for the delay within seventy-two (72) hours after such termination in accordance with paragraph 6.2.7; otherwise, any claim for extension of time based upon that cause shall be waived. 8.3.3 No claim for an increase in the Contract Sum for either acceleration or delay will be allowed for extensions of time pursuant to this Paragraph 8.3 or for other changes in the Construction Schedules. 8.3.4 If the Project is delayed as a result of the Contractor's refusal or failure to begin the Work on the date of commencement as defined in Paragraph 8.1.2, or his refusal or failure to carry the Work forward expeditiously with adequate forces, the Contractor causing the delay shall be liable for, but not limited to, delay claims from other Contractors which are affected. ARTICLE 9 PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION 9.1 Contract Sum 9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Agreement and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Contractor for performance of the Work under the Contract Documents. 9.2 Schedule of Values 9.2.1 Before submittal of the first Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect, through 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 and Architect may require. This schedule, unless objected to by Project Management or Architect, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications for Payment. 9.3 Applications for Payment 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 22 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION 9.3.1 At least fifteen days before the date established for each progress payment, the Contractor shall submit to the Architect 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, Project Management or Architect 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 previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of the Contractor's 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 9.4.1 The Architect 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 Architect's receipt of the Project Application for Payment, Project Management and Architect will either approve the Application for Payment, with a copy to the Contractor, for such amount as Project Management and Architect determine is properly due, or notify the Contractor in writing of Project Management's and Architect'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 separately by Project Management and Architect to the Owner, based on their individual observations at the site and the data comprising the Application for Payment submitted by the 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 23 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION Contractor, that the Work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of Project Management's and Architect'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 or Architect. 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 or Architect 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/Architect 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. 9.6 Progress Payments 9.6.1 After Project Management and Architect have 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 and Architect. 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 bid or covered by approved change orders, except when such excess quantities have been 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 24 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION 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, Project Management and Architect on account of portions of the Work done by such Subcontractor. 9.6.4 Neither the Owner, Project Management nor Architect shall have an obligation to pay, or to see to, 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 the end of the calendar month following that in which services are rendered and for all materials, tools, and other expendable equipment which are delivered at the site of the Project. The 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 Contractor on account of the Work performed by the Subcontractor. The Contractor shall, by an 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 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 25 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION shall jointly prepare and submit to the Architect 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 the Architect. 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 and submit a list to the Architect 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 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 09/27/12 GENERAL CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION 26 CONSTRUCTION OF NEW STOCK ISLAND FIRE STATION 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 forward the Notice and Application to the Architect who will promptly make such inspection. When the Architect, based on the recommendation of Project Management, finds the Work acceptable under the Contract Documents and the Contract fully performed, Project Management and Architect 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 and Architect'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 the Architect through 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 Contract Documents to remain in force after final payment is made, is currently in effect and will not be canceled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days' prior written notice has been given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Contractor knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Contract Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment and (5), if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Contract. 9.10.3 Acceptance of final payment by the Contractor, a Subcontractor or material supplier shall constitute a waiver of claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final Application for Payment. Such waivers shall be in addition to the waiver described Subparagraph 4.7.5. 9.11 Payment of Subcontractors 9.11.1 Any requirement of this Article 9 that the Contractor furnish proof to the Owner, Architect, Project Management that the subcontractors and materialmen have been paid is for the protection and convenience of the Owner only.

The Work in the affected area shall not thereafter be resumed except by written agreement of the Owner and Contractor if in fact the material is asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) and has not been rendered harmless. The Work in the affected area shall be resumed in the absence of asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), or when it has been rendered harmless, by written agreement of the Owner and Contractor, or in accordance with final determination by the Architect. 10.1.3 The Contractor shall not be required pursuant to Article 7 to perform without consent any Work relating to asbestos or polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB). 10.5.4 Not Used 10.1.5 If reasonable precautions will be inadequate to prevent foreseeable bodily injury or death to persons resulting from a material or substance encountered on the site by the Contractor, the Contractor shall, upon recognizing the condition, immediately stop Work in the affected area and report the condition to Project Management in writing. The Owner, Contractor and Project Management shall then proceed in the same manner described in Subparagraph 10.1.2. 10.1.6 The Owner shall be responsible for obtaining the services of a licensed laboratory to verify a presence or absence of the material or substance reported by the Contractor and, in the event such material or substance is found to be present, to verify that it has been rendered harmless.

Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.

Burke Construction Group has been operating for 5 years, Anthony Burke has been performing construction services in Florida for 29 years and has completed over $1.5 billion in construction projects in the last 15 years. D. 5 years E. d)The President of Burke Construction Group, Inc . is Mr. Anthony J. Burke, Jr. In 2006 Mr. Burke was one of the officer's of The Tower Group, Inc. The Tower Group was the general contractor for the Freeman Justice Center in Key West. Due to issues with the Architect, the job had significant delays. The Tower Group was sold to a large international firm by the name of OHL. During the transition period while Mr. Burke was still an officer of The Tower Group, a claim was filed against Monroe County for delay damages. This claim was solely due to problems with the architect, Jose Gonzalez. These claims were settled amicably and Mr. Gonzalez was removed from the project and replaced with another firm by the name of Currie, Sowards Aguila. At the present time, Mr. Burke is assisting the attorney for Monroe County, Mr. Ira Libanoff in perfecting a claim against Gonzalez Architects. Mr. Burke has continued to help Monroe County in all instances to successfully complete the claim against the former architect which lead to the delays in the first place. David W.
