made under terms and conditions governing final payment, except that it shall not constitute a waiver of Claims by the Owner
as provided in Subparagraph 4.7,5.

claims by that payee except those previously made in writing and identified by that payee as unsettled at the time of final

12.2,2 If, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion of the Work or designated portion thereof, or after the
date for commencement of warranties established under Subparagraph 9.9.1, or by terms of an applicable special warranty
required by the Contract 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 of such condition. This period of one year shall be extended with
respect to portions of Work first performed after Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial
Completion and the actual performance of the Work. This obligation under this Subparagraph 12.2.2 shall survive
acceptance of the Work under the Contract and termination of the Contract. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after
discovery of the condition.
12.2,3 The Contractor shall remove from the site portions of the Work which are not in accordance with the requirements
of the Contract Documents and are neither corrected by the Contractor nor accepted by the Owner.
12.2.4 If the Contractor fails to correct nonconforming Work within a reasonable time, the Owner may correct it in
accordance with Paragraph 2.4. If the Contractor does not proceed with correction of such nonconforming Work within a
reasonable time fixed by written notice from the Architect issued through the Construction Manager, the Owner may remove
it and store the salvable materials or equipment at the Contractor's expense, if the Contractor does not pay costs of such
removal and storage within ten days after written notice, the Owner may upon ten additional days' written 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 the Construction Manager's and
Architect's services and expenses made necessary thereby, if such proceeds of sale do not cover costs which the Contractor
should have borne, the Contract Sum shall be reduced by the deficiency. If payments then or thereafter due the contractor are
not sufficient to cover such amount, the Contractor shall pay the difference to the Owner.
12.2.5 The Contractor shall bear the cost of correcting destroyed or damaged construction, whether completed or partially
completed, of the Owner or other Contractors caused by the Contractor's correction or removal of Work which is not in
accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents.

obligations which the Contractor might have under the Contract 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 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 lEthe Owner prefers to accept Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents,
the Owner may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum will be reduced as
appropriate and equitable. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.
