2.2 The Eagle County Road & Bridge Director shall be authorized to sign change orders
modifying the scope of work and associated compensation within the budget constraints set for
the Project. Change orders in excess of the budgeted amount must be signed and approved by
the Board of County Commissioners.
2.3 Contractor’s representative is E. John Rippy.
2.4 Neither Owner’s nor Contractor’s representative(s) shall be changed with less than ten
(10) days’ prior written notice to the other party.
ARTICLE 3 - CONTRACT TIME
3.1 Contractor shall diligently and continuously prosecute the Work and shall complete the
Work and be ready for final payment in accordance with the Contract Documents on or before
October 31, 2019 (the “Contract Time”).
3.2 Time is of the essence. By executing the Agreement, Contractor confirms that the
Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work. Contractor shall proceed
expeditiously with adequate forces and shall complete the Work within the Contract Time. No
modifications shall be made to the Contract Time unless a written Change Order is executed by
Owner in accordance with the Contract Documents.
3.3 Contractor shall employ all such additional labor services and supervision, including
such extra shifts and overtime, as may be necessary to maintain progress in accordance with the
Project Schedule and complete the Work within the Contract Time, all without an increase in the
Unit Prices. Should it appear to Owner at any time that Contractor is in danger of failing to
comply with the Project Schedule, Contractor shall cause its employees, subcontractors and all
other parties covered by the Contract Documents to perform and work at hours and on days, in
addition to the normal working hours and working days, whatever overtime work or shift work is
necessary to comply with the Project Schedule and with no adjustment to the Unit Prices or Base
Bid Price.

essence of this Agreement and that Owner will suffer financial loss if the Work is not complete
and ready for final payment within the time specified in paragraph 3.1 above, plus any
extensions thereof allowed in accordance with the General Conditions. They also recognize the
delays, expense, and difficulties involved in proving in a legal or arbitration proceeding the
actual loss suffered by Owner if the Work is not completed on time. Accordingly, instead of
requiring such proof, Owner and Contractor agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not
as a penalty) Contractor shall pay Owner Three Hundred dollars ($300.00) for each day that
expires after the time specified in paragraph 3.1 for completion until the Work is complete.

written notice of termination (“Notice of Termination”) specifying the date upon which
termination becomes effective. In such event, Contractor shall be compensated for all materials
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
and Work satisfactorily performed and accepted by County prior to the date of termination. Any
guarantees, or warranties with respect to the materials and Work performed shall survive
termination. Any indemnification set forth in the Contract Documents shall survive termination.
ARTICLE 5 – BASIS FOR PAYMENT
5.1 Contractor acknowledges that Owner is a tax-exempt entity and that Owner has
appropriated funds for this Project in a sum equal to or in excess of the Base Bid Price.
5.2 Upon and subject to the provisions and conditions of this Section 5 and as set forth in
the Contract Documents, Owner shall pay Contractor, for Contractor’s performance of the Work
under the Contract Documents, in accordance with the unit prices set forth in Contractor’s Bid
Form, attached here to as Exhibit A (the “Unit Prices”). The total compensation for
Contractor’s Work on the Project shall not exceed $1,046,259.60 (“Base Bid Price”). The Base
Bid Price was calculated by the parties based upon the Unit Prices set forth in Contractor’s Bid
Form.
5.3 The Base Bid Price includes, without limitation, the entire amount of overhead and
profit payable to Contractor in connection with the Work under the Contract Documents.
Contractor shall not have the right to, nor shall it seek to recover, any additional compensation
for overhead and profit. Unit quantities actually incorporated in the Project may be adjusted
subject to the not to exceed Base Bid Price in Section 5.2 above and in accordance with the
Contract Documents. In no event shall the Unit Prices set forth in Exhibit A (Contractor’s Bid
Form) be adjusted.
5.4 Where the quantity of Work with respect to any item that is covered by a Unit Price
differs materially and significantly from the quantity of such Work indicated in the Contract
Documents, an appropriate Change Order (additive or deductive) may be issued with written
approval of Owner in accordance with the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
in no event will a change modify the Base Bid Price without a Change Order approved by
Owner.
5.5 County will not withhold any taxes from monies paid to the Contractor hereunder and
Contractor agrees to be solely responsible for the accurate reporting and payment of any taxes
related to payments made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
5.6 Pursuant to the provisions of Section 24-91-103.6 C.R.S., and notwithstanding anything
to the contrary contained elsewhere in the Contract Documents, no Change Order or other form
of order or directive by Owner, and no amendment to this Agreement, requiring additional
compensable Work to be performed which Work causes the aggregate amount payable under the
Agreement to exceed the amount appropriated for the original Agreement, shall be of any force
or effect unless accompanied by a written assurance by Owner that lawful appropriations to
cover the costs of the additional Work have been made or unless such Work is covered under a
remedy-granting provision in the Agreement.
5.7 The signatories to this Agreement aver to their knowledge, that no employee of the
County has any personal or beneficial interest whatsoever in the Work, service or property
described in this Agreement. Contractor has no interest and shall not acquire any interest, direct
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C

or indirect, that would conflict in any matter or degree with the performance of Contractor’s
Work or services and Contractor shall not employ any person having such known interests.
5.8 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, County shall
have no obligations under this Agreement after, nor shall any payments be made to Contractor in
respect of any period after December 31 without an appropriation therefore by County in
accordance with a budget adopted by the Board of County Commissioners in compliance with
Article 25, Title 30 of the Colorado Revised Statutes, the Local Government Budget Law (C.R.S.
§ 29-1-101 et seq.) and the TABOR Amendment (Colorado Constitution, Article X, Sec. 20).
ARTICLE 6 – CHANGES IN THE WORK
6.1 Owner, without invalidating the Contract Documents, may order Changes in the Work
consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions of the Work, with the Base Bid Price and(or)
the Contract Time being adjusted accordingly (individually a “Change” and collectively
“Changes”). All such Changes in the Work shall be authorized by “Change Order”, and shall be
performed pursuant to the Contract Documents. A Change may result in a modification to the
quantities set forth in Exhibit A hereto, but any such Change shall be priced in accordance with
the Unit Prices.
6.2 Within three (3) business days of receipt of an order for Change(s) from Owner,
Contractor shall prepare and submit to Owner, a detailed breakdown (with all supporting
documentation) sufficient to enable Owner to determine the effect on the Base Bid Price, if any,
and the effect on the Project Schedule, if any, of a proposed Change. Such breakdown and
documentation shall reflect all labor, services and materials altered, added, omitted or changed
by the proposed Change(s), with the detailed breakdowns, estimates and verification of prices by
Contractor and each applicable subcontractor (but with no change in the Unit Prices). Contractor
shall not have the right to, nor shall it seek to recover, any additional compensation for overhead
and profit. When a Change request requires immediate commencement of Work described, then
Contractor shall submit a rough order of magnitude cost estimate within three (3) business days
of commencing such Work. Owner will, on periodic basis and in accordance with the Contract
Documents and C.R.S. 24-91-103.6 (2)(c), make period reimbursements for additional Work that
is directed by Owner and performed by Contractor until a Change Order is finalized. In no
instance, shall the periodic reimbursement be required before the Contractor has submitted an
estimate of cost to the Owner for the additional Work to be performed.
6.3 Upon issuance of a Change Order by Owner, Contractor and its subcontractors will
perform the Change(s) in the Work incorporated by the Change Order.
6.4 If there is a disagreement regarding the amount of adjustments to the Base Bid Price
and(or) Contract Time in a Change Order, the Base Bid Price and the Contract Time shall be
adjusted unilaterally by Owner by the amounts shown in the Change Order executed by Owner.
Contractor may oppose any such unilateral decisions of Owner only by utilizing the dispute
resolution provisions set forth in Section 19.7 the General Conditions and without any stoppage
of the Work. As to any adjustments to the Base Bid Price set forth in said Change Order, the
same shall be ultimately calculated as set forth in the Contract Documents (without any change
in the Unit Prices).
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
6.5 Notwithstanding and pending resolution of any dispute regarding any adjustment in the
Base Bid Price or Contract Time with respect to a Change, Contractor shall promptly proceed
with Work required by any Change Order issued by Owner.
6.6 No Change Orders or other form of order or directive which requires additional
compensable work to be performed may be issued or be effective unless accompanied by a
written assurance to the Contractor that lawful appropriations to cover the costs of the additional
work have been made or unless such work is covered under a remedy-granting provision of the
Agreement.
6.7 Owner will have authority to order minor changes in the Work not involving changes in
the Base Bid Price or the Contract Time. Such changes shall be written orders and shall be
binding on the Contractor and Owner. Contractor shall carry out such written orders promptly.
ARTICLE 7 - CONTRACTOR NOTICE OF CLAIM FOR CHANGE ORDER
7.1 If Contractor contends that any order from Owner or other event or occurrence shall
cause Change(s) in the Work entitling Contractor to an adjustment to the Base Bid Price (as the
same relates to quantity, but not including Unit Prices) or Contract Time, Contractor shall submit
a written Notice of Claim to Owner as set forth in Section 19 of the General Conditions.
7.2 Owner shall review any timely Claim submitted by Contractor. In conducting its review,
Owner shall have the right to require Contractor to submit such additional or supporting
documents, data and other information as Owner may require. If, upon completion of such
review, Owner determines a Change is justified, Owner shall issue a Change Order amending the
Base Bid Price (subject to the provisions and conditions of the Contract Documents) or Contract
Time or both, as appropriate. Otherwise, Owner may determine not to so issue a Change Order
amending the Base Bid Price or Contract Time. If Contractor disputes the determination made
by Owner, Contractor shall notify Owner in writing within three (3) business days following
receipt of the determination and permit Owner five (5) additional days to reconsider and, if it
deems it appropriate, modify its decision. If Owner does not modify its decision and Contractor
still disputes Owner’s determination, then Contractor may pursue the dispute resolution
procedures set forth in Section 19.7 of the General Conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the parties acknowledge and agree that Contractor shall not be entitled to a Change Order unless
Contractor submits a written Notice of Claim to Owner and otherwise follows the processes and
procedures set forth in Section 19 of the General Conditions within the time limitations set forth
in Section 19 of the General Conditions, time being of the essence with respect thereto.
7.3 No Change in the Work, whether by alteration or addition to the Work, shall be the basis
of an addition to the Base Bid Price or a change in the Contract Time unless and until such
alteration or addition has been authorized by a written Change Order executed and issued in
accordance with and in strict compliance with the Contract Documents. Accordingly, no course
of conduct or dealings between the parties, nor verbal change orders or express or implied
acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work, and no claim that Owner has been unjustly
enriched by any alteration or addition to the Work, whether or not there is in fact any such unjust
enrichment, shall be the basis for any Claim for an increase in the Base Bid Price or Change in
the Contract Time. In the event that a written Change Order is not timely executed and issued in
accordance with and in strict compliance with the Contract Documents, time being of the essence
with respect thereto, Contractor’s rights with respect to such Claims shall be deemed waived.

EXHIBIT C
ROAD & BRIDGE DEPARTMENT
GENERAL CONDITIONS
1. Contractor shall provide and pay for all labor, materials, equipment, tools, utilities,
permits, licenses, transportation, and other facilities and services necessary for proper
execution and completion of the Work.
2. If Contractor fails to obtain the tax exemption(s) applicable to public works projects from
sales, consumer, use and similar taxes, Contractor shall pay the same. Owner will
cooperate with Contractor to obtain tax exemption for this Project.
3. Contractor shall be responsible for having taken steps reasonably necessary to ascertain
the nature and location of the Work, and the general and local conditions which can affect
the Work or the cost thereof. Any failure by Contractor to do so will not relieve him
from responsibility for successfully performing the Work without additional expense to
the Owner. Owner assumes no responsibility for any understanding or representations
concerning conditions made by any of its officers, employees or agents prior to the
execution of the Agreement between the Owner and Contractor, unless such
understanding or representations are expressly stated in the Agreement.
4. Before commencing activities, Contractor shall: (1) take field measurements and verify
field conditions; (2) carefully compare this and other information known to Contractor
with the Contract Documents; and (3) promptly report errors, inconsistencies or
omissions discovered to Owner.
5. Contractor shall supervise and direct the Work, using Contractor's best skill and attention.
Contractor shall be solely responsible for and have control over construction means,
methods, techniques, quality, sequences and procedures, and for coordinating all portions
of the Work. Contractor shall submit a project schedule within five (5) days of executing
this Agreement for approval by Owner (the “Project Schedule”). The Project Schedule
shall set forth the timeline and milestones for completion of the Work by Contractor on
or before the Contract Time. Contractor shall provide regular monitoring, on at least a
monthly basis, of the Project Schedule as construction progresses. Further, Contractor
shall maintain and deliver to Owner a daily job report of Work performed, notable events
and incidents, weather conditions, subcontractor’s performance, any deficiencies (and
corrective actions taken), delays, and other information that Owner may reasonably
request.
6. Contractor, as soon as practicable, shall furnish in writing to the Owner the names of
subcontractors and suppliers for each portion of the Work. If requested by Owner,
Contractor shall supply any other information concerning the subcontractors background
and experience as reasonably requested by Owner.
7. No charge shall be made by Contractor for hindrances or delays from any cause whatever
during the progress of any portion of the Work, unless such hindrance or delay is caused
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
2
in whole or in part by acts or omissions within the control of Owner. In any event,
Owner may grant an extension of the Contract Time for the completion of the Work,
provided it is satisfied that delays or hindrances were due to causes outside Contractor's
control, e.g., weather, or to acts of omission or commission by the Owner, provided that
such extensions of time shall in no instance exceed the time actually lost to Contractor by
reason of such causes, and provided further that Contractor shall have given Owner
immediate (as determined by the circumstances, but not exceeding 48 hours) notice in
writing of the cause of the detention or delay. In the event of any disagreement between
Owner and Contractor as to the amount of the adjustment to be made to the Contract
Time, the amount of the adjustment not in dispute shall be processed as a Change Order
and the amount in dispute shall be processed as a Claim under the provisions of Section 7
of the Agreement and Section 19 below. The burden of proof that an event of delay has
occurred which should extend the Contract Time as provided for herein shall be borne by
the party claiming such to be the case; provided, however, under no circumstances shall
there be an adjustment to the Base Bid Price or the individual Unit Prices.
8. Contractor shall deliver, handle, store and install materials in accordance with
manufacturers' instructions. Further, Contractor shall perform the Work in strict
conformance with the Contract Documents. Contractor shall not be relieved of any
obligations set forth in the Contract Documents either by activities or duties of Owner,
any consultant, or by tests, inspections or approvals required or performed by persons
other than Contractor. Contractor shall arrange for tests, inspections and approvals as
required by the Contract Documents. If the Contract Documents require any portion of
the Work to be inspected tested or approved, Contractor shall give Owner at least twenty-
four (24) hours’ notice of its readiness so Owner may observe such inspecting, testing or
approval. If Owner determines that any Work requires special inspection, testing or
approval not already required by the Contract Documents, Owner may instruct Contractor
to order such special inspection, testing or approval.
8.1 Contractor shall supervise, coordinate and direct the Work, continuously monitor the
performance of the Work, and inspect the quality and workmanship of the Work for any
defects and (or) deficiencies in the Work. Contractor shall enforce strict discipline and
good order among its employees and subcontractors and shall require subcontractors to
do the same. Contractor shall replace on-site supervision personnel as-needed upon
performance and based upon Owner’s assessment that the Project is not adequately
staffed or the Work is not adequately progressing.
8.2 Contractor agrees that only competent and skilled workmen who satisfactorily perform
their duties shall be employed on the Project and Contractor shall ensure that there are an
adequate and competent supply of skilled workmen and materials as necessary to carry
out the Work on a continuous basis.
9. Contractor shall comply with and give notices required by all federal, state and local
laws, statutes, ordinances, building codes, rules and regulations applicable to the Work.
If the Contractor performs Work knowing it to be contrary to laws, statutes, ordinances,
building codes, rules or regulations without notice to Owner, Contractor shall assume full
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
3
responsibility for such Work and shall bear the attributable costs. Contractor shall
promptly notify Owner in writing of any conflicts between the specifications for the
Work and such governmental laws, rules and regulations.
10. The Contractor shall be responsible for initiating, maintaining and supervising all safety
precautions and programs, including all those required by law in connection with
performance of the Agreement. Contractor shall erect and maintain, as required by
existing conditions and performance of the Contract Documents, reasonable safeguards
for safety and protection, including posting danger signs and other warnings against
hazards, promulgating safety regulations, and notifying owners and users of adjacent sites
and utilities. The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage and loss to property caused
in whole or in part by the Contractor, or by anyone for whose acts the Contractor may be
liable.
11. Contractor shall keep the premises/work site and surrounding area free from
accumulation of debris and trash related to the Work.
12. Contractor shall furnish performance and payment bonds, each in an amount at least
equal to the Base Bid Price as security for the faithful performance and payment of all
Contractor’s obligations under the Contract Documents. In the event of any change order
resulting in the performance of additional work in connection with the Project, the
amounts of such bonds shall be increased by an amount equal to the cost of such
additional work or materials or fixtures to be incorporated in the Project. These bonds
shall remain in effect at least until one year after the date of final payment, except as
otherwise provided by law. Contractor shall also furnish other bonds as are required by
the supplementary conditions. All bonds shall be in forms satisfactory to Owner, and be
executed by such sureties as (a) are licensed to conduct business in the state where the
Project is located, and (b) are named in the current list of "Companies Holding
Certificates of Authority as Acceptable Sureties on Federal Bonds and as Acceptable
Reinsuring Companies" as published in Circular 570 (amended) by the Audit Staff
Bureau of Accounts, U.S. Treasury Department. All bonds signed by an agent must be
accompanied by a certified copy of the authority to act.
If the surety on any bond furnished by Contractor is declared bankrupt, or becomes
insolvent, or its right to do business is terminated in any state where any part of the
Project is located, or it ceases to meet the requirements of clauses (a) and (b) of the
preceding paragraph, Contractor shall within five days thereafter substitute another bond
and surety, both of which shall be acceptable to Owner.
13. Contractor shall be solely responsible for the protection of the Work until its final
acceptance by Owner. Contractor shall have no claim against Owner because of any
damage or loss to the Work, and shall be responsible for the complete restoration of
damaged Work to its original condition. In the event Contractor's Work is damaged by
another party, not under his supervision or control, Contractor shall make his claim
directly with the party involved. If a conflict or disagreement develops between
Contractor and another party concerning the responsibility for damage or loss to
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
4
Contractor's Work, such conflict shall not be cause for delay in Contractor's restoration of
the damaged Work.
14. Contractor's Insurance:
The Contractor shall purchase and maintain such insurance as will protect him from
claims set forth below which may arise out of or result from the Contractor's operations
under the Agreement, whether such operations be by himself, or by any subcontractor, or
by anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them, or by anyone for whose acts
any of them may be liable. All such insurance shall remain in effect until final payment,
and at all times thereafter when Contractor may be correcting, removing, or replacing
defective Work. In addition, Contractor shall maintain such completed operations
insurance for at least one year after final payment, and furnish Owner with evidence of
continuation of such insurance at final payment.
Contractor shall maintain insurance coverage for and as follows:
Claims under Workmen's Compensation, disability benefits, and other similar employee
benefit acts, with coverage and in amounts as required by the laws of the State of
Colorado;
Claims for damage because of bodily injury, occupational sickness or disease, or death of
his employees, and claims insured by usual personal injury liability coverage;
Claims for damage because of bodily injury, sickness, disease, or death of any person
other than his employees; and
Claims for damages because of injury to or destruction of tangible property, including
loss of use resulting there from;

Comprehensive Automobile Insurance covering any vehicle (including owned, hired and
non-owned vehicle) shall be carried in the amount of $1,000,000/$2,000,000 for bodily
injury and $1,000,000 for property damage, each occurrence. All liability and property
damage insurance required hereunder shall be Comprehensive General and Automobile
Bodily Injury and Property Damage forms of policies, as the case may be.
Insurance covering claims for damages to persons or property required above shall be in
the following minimum amounts:
Bodily Injury Liability
Each Person: $2,000,000
Each Accident or Occurrence: $2,000,000
Property Damage Liability
Each Accident or Occurrence: $2,000,000
Aggregate: $2,000,000
If any aggregate limit is reduced below $2,000,000 because of claims made or paid,
Contractor shall immediately obtain additional insurance to restore the full aggregate
limit and furnish to Owner a certificate or other document satisfactory to Owner showing
compliance with this provision.
Certificates of Insurance: Certificates of Insurance acceptable to the Owner shall be filed
with the Owner prior to commencement of the Work. These Certificates shall contain
provisions naming the Owner its associated or affiliated entities, its successors and
assigns, elected officials, employees, agents and volunteers as additional insureds under
Contractor's insurance, and that coverage afforded under the policies will not be
cancelled until at least thirty (30) days prior written notice has been given the Owner.
Contractor and his subcontractors shall not permit any of his subcontractors to start Work
until all required insurance have been obtained and certificates with the proper
endorsements have been filed with the Owner. Failure of the Contractor to comply with
the foregoing insurance requirements shall in no way waive the Owner's rights hereunder.
All insurance policies in any way related to this Agreement and secured and maintained
by Contractor as required herein, shall include clauses stating that each carrier shall
waive all rights of recovery, under subrogation or otherwise, against County, its agencies,
institutions, organizations, officers, agents, employees and volunteers.
15. Owner, at its option, may purchase and maintain such liability insurance as will prot ect
him against claims which may arise from operations under this Agreement. Purchasing
and maintaining such insurance, however, will not relieve the Contractor from purchasing
and maintaining the insurance hereinbefore specified.
16. Before permitting any of his subcontractors to perform any Work under the Agreement
and Contract Documents, Contractor shall either (a) require each of his subcontractors to
procure and maintain during the life of his subcontracts, Subcontractor's Public Liability
and Property Damage Insurance of the types and in the amounts as may be applicable to
his Work, which type and amounts shall be subject to the approval of the Owner, or (b)
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
6
insure the activities of his subcontractors in his own policy. Coverage required of
Contractor and any of its subcontractors shall be primary over any insurance or self-
insurance program carried by Owner.
17. Indemnification. The Contractor shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify
and hold harmless Owner and any of its officials, boards, officers, agents and employees
against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities for which Owner or its officials, boards,
officers, agents, or employees may become subject to, insofar as any such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities arise out of, directly or indirectly, this Agreement, the Work, or are
based upon any performance or nonperformance by Contractor or any subcontractor or
anyone directly or indirectly employed by any of them or anyone for whose acts any of
them may be liable; and Contractor shall reimburse Owner for any and all legal and other
expenses including attorney fees incurred by Owner in connection with investigating or
defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnification shall
not apply to claims by third parties against Owner to the extent that Owner is liable to
such third party for such claim without regard to the involvement of the Contractor. To
the extent applicable, nothing shall be interpreted as a waiver of Owner’s rights under the
Governmental Immunity Act or other protections available to it under the law. This
paragraph and the requirement to indemnify Owner and any of its officials, boards,
officers, agents or employees shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement.
18. Changes in the Work may be accomplished after execution of the Agreement, and
without invalidating the Contract Documents, only by Change Order, subject to the
limitations stated in the Contract Documents. A Change Order will be used to document
any extension of the Contract Time approved in accordance with the Contract Documents
or a change in the quantities (additive or deductive) set forth in Exhibit A to the
Agreement (Contractor’s Bid Form) (without any change in the Unit Prices). A Change
Order shall be a written order to the Contractor signed by Owner to change the Work.
19. Claims.
19.1 A “Claim” is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of
right, an adjustment or interpretation of the Contract Document terms, payment of
money, extension of time or other relief with respect to the terms of the Contract
Documents.
19.2 Pending final resolution of a Claim, Contractor shall proceed diligently with
performance of the Contract Documents and Owner shall continue to make undisputed
payments in accordance with the Contract Documents.
19.3 If Contractor contends that any order from Owner or other event or occurrence
shall cause Change(s) in the Work entitling Contractor to adjustment to the Base Bid
Price (as the same relates to quantity, but not including Unit Prices) or Contract Time,
Contractor shall provide a written notice of claim (“Notice of Claim”) to Owner as
provided herein. Such Notice of Claim must clearly identify the order or event which is
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
7
relied upon and contain a clear statement of why it constitutes a basis for adjustment.
Said Notice of Claim shall also include a designation of the provision or provisions in the
Contract Documents on which the Claim is based and the amount of time and
compensation claimed. All costs, expenses, damages and extensions of time claimed as a
result of this alleged change shall be described in reasonable detail under the
circumstances together with complete supporting documentation.
19.4 All Claims for increases in the Base Bid Price shall be made in writing to Owner
as soon as reasonably practicable but in all events within seven (7) days of Contractor’s
knowledge of the circumstances giving rise to such Claim. In making a Claim for an
increase in the Base Bid Price, Contractor shall provide Owner with written
documentation concerning the Claim, including but not limited to the specific reasons for
the Claim and the amount of the Claim. Any such Claim for increase in the Base Bid
Price may result in an adjustment in the quantities set forth in Exhibit A to the
Agreement, but under no circumstances shall there be an adjustment to the individual
Unit Prices.
In the event that Contractor fails to timely submit a Claim for an increase in the Base Bid
Price or Contract Time, or if additional Work is performed prior to the approval of such a
Claim, no equitable adjustment shall be made to the Base Bid Price or Contract Time as a
result of such Work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior notice is not required for
Claims relating to an emergency endangering life or property, in which case Contractor
shall act, at Contractor’s discretion, to prevent the threatened damage, injury or loss.
19.5 Except as expressly provided in the Contract Documents, Contractor shall not be
entitled to any extension of the Contract Time. If Owner finds that Contractor is entitled
to any extension of the Contract Time, Owner’s determination as to the total number of
days extension shall be based upon the currently approved Project Schedule and on all
data relevant to such extension. Such data shall be included in an amendment to the
Project Schedule based upon a Change Order executed in accordance with the Contract
Documents. Actual delays in activities which, according to the Project Schedule, do not
affect the critical path shall not be the basis for a Change Order with respect thereto.
19.6 All Claims for extensions of the Contract Time shall be made in writing to Owner
as soon as reasonably practicable but in all events within five (5) days of C ontractor’s
knowledge of the first instance of delay, and the circumstances and activities leading to
such claim shall be indicated or referenced on Contractor’s daily report for the day(s)
affected. However, it is specifically acknowledged that no change in the Project
Schedule shall be effective unless and until a Change Order is properly executed in
accordance with the Contract Documents. In making a Claim for an extension of time as
a result of a delay, Contractor shall provide Owner with the following specific
information: nature of the delay; date (or anticipated date) of commencement of delay;
activities on the Project Schedule affected by the delay, and(or) new activities delay, and
their relationship with existing activities; identification of person(s) or organization(s) or
event(s) responsible for the delay; anticipated extent of delay; and recommended action
to avoid or minimize the delay.
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
8
19.7 All claims, disputes, controversies and other matters in question between Owner
and Contractor shall, in the first instance, be subject to good faith negotiations between
the parties. Either party may notify the other of a claim or dispute. Within fifteen (15)
days after the delivery of such notification, or such longer period as the parties may
mutually agree, the parties shall meet in a good faith to resolve any claims or disputes. In
the event the parties cannot reach an agreement then any and all remaining claims,
disputes or controversies related to the Contract Documents, or breach thereof, shall be
litigated in the District Court for Eagle County, Colorado, which shall be the sole and
exclusive forum for such litigation. The parties further acknowledge and agree that
Owner shall have the right, but not the obligation, to join any consultant and (or)
subcontractor in any such meeting and (or) litigation.
20. Progress Payments:
If the Project is subject to progress payments, not more often than once a month,
Contractor shall submit to Owner an application for payment filled out and signed by
Contractor covering the Work completed as of the date of the application, and
accompanied by such supporting documentation as Owner may reasonably require based
on the Base Bid Price/Unit Prices. If payment is requested on the basis of materials and
equipment not incorporated in the Work, but delivered and suitably stored at the site or at
another location agreed to in writing, the application for payment shall also be
accompanied by such data, satisfactory to Owner, as will establish Owner's title to the
material and equipment, and protect Owner's interest therein, including applicable
insurance. Each subsequent application for payment shall include an affidavit of
Contractor stating that all previous progress payments received on account of the Work
have been applied to discharge in full all of Contractor's obligations reflected in prior
applications for payment. The amount of retainage with respect to progress payments
will be as set forth in the Agreement.
Owner will, within ten (10) days after receipt of each application for payment, either
indicate in writing a recommendation of payment, or return the application to Contractor
indicating in writing its reasons for refusing to recommend payment. In the latter case,
Contractor may make the necessary corrections and resubmit the application. Owner
shall, within twenty (20) days of recommendation of payment, pay Contractor the amount
recommended.
21. Final Payment:
Upon written notice from Contractor that the Work is complete, Owner will make a final
inspection with Contractor, and will notify Contractor in writing of all particulars in
which this inspection reveals that the Work is incomplete or defective. Contractor shall
immediately take such measures as are necessary to remedy such deficiencies. Defects
are those identified by an Eagle County Official(s) and shall be judged on quality by that
Official(s).
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
9
After Contractor has completed all such corrections to the satisfaction of Owner, and
delivered all maintenance and operating instructions, schedules, guarantees, bonds,
certificates of inspection, marked-up record documents or as-built drawings covering all
of the Work, Contractor may make application for final payment following the procedure
for progress payments. The final application for payment shall be accompanied by all
documentation called for in the Contract Documents, and such other data and schedules,
releases and waivers as Owner may reasonably require. Contractor, upon request, will
furnish receipts or releases in full or an affidavit of Contractor that the releases and
receipts include all labor, services, material, and equipment for which lien could be filed,
and that all payrolls, material, and equipment bills, and other indebtedness connected
with the Work, for which Owner might in any way be responsible.
21.1 The making of final payment shall constitute a waiver of all claims by the County
except those arising from:
a. Unsettled claims;
b. Faulty or defective Work appearing after completion of the Work;
c. Failure of the Work to comply with the requirements of the Contract Documents;
or
d. Terms of any warranties or special warranties required by the Contract
Documents.
21.2 The acceptance of final payment by Contractor shall constitute a waiver of all
claims by Contractor except those previously made in writing and separately identified by
Contractor as unsettled in the final Application for Payment.
21.3 All provisions of the Contract Documents including without limitation those
establishing obligations and procedures or surviving termination or expiration hereof,
shall remain in full and effect notwithstanding the making or acceptance of final
payment.
21.4 No payment, including final payment, shall be construed as an acceptance of
defective or incomplete Work, and Contractor shall remain responsible for its
performance conforming with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
22. Final payment is subject to the Final Settlement requirements and time periods set forth
in C.R.S. §38-26-107.
23. Contractor warrants and guarantees that title to all Work, materials, and equipment
covered by any application for payment, whether incorporated in the Project or not, will
pass to Owner at the time of payment free and clear of all liens, claims, security interests,
and encumbrances (in these General Conditions referred to as "Liens").
24. Contractor's obligation to perform and complete the Work in accordance with the
Contract Documents shall be absolute. Neither the recommendation of any progress or
final payment nor the payment by Owner to Contractor under the Contract Documents,
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
10
nor any use or occupancy of the Work or any part thereof by Owner, nor any act of
acceptance by Owner, nor any failure to do so, nor any correction of defective Work by
Owner shall constitute an acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract
Documents or a release of Contractor's obligation to perform the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents.
25. If Contractor fails to correct Work which is not in accordance with the Contract
Documents, the Owner may direct the Contractor to stop the Work until the correction is
made.
26. Contractor shall promptly correct Work rejected by Owner as failing to conform to the
requirements of the Contract Documents and Contractor shall bear the cost of correcting
such rejected Work.
27. Contractor warrants to Owner that: (i) materials and equipment furnished under the
Contract Documents shall be of first class quality and new unless otherwise required or
permitted by the Contract Documents; (ii) the Work shall be free from defects and
deficiencies; (iii) the Work shall conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents,
applicable laws and applicable permits; and (iv) the Work shall be performed in a good
workmanlike manner. All guarantees or warranties of equipment or materials furnished to
Contractor or any subcontractor(s) by any manufacturer or supplier shall be for the
benefit of Owner. Contractor shall and hereby does covenant, warrant and agree that it
shall repair or replace any and all of the Work, together with other Work which may be
displaced in so doing, that does not conform with the requirements of this Section 27,
without any cost to Owner for a period of twelve (12) months following the date of
completion of the Work. This obligation shall survive both final payment for the Work or
designated portion thereof and termination of this Agreement. Further, any Work
corrected in accordance with this Section 27 by Contractor, shall be subject to an
additional one (1) year warranty from the date of correction on the same terms and
conditions as the initial warranty. The extended warranty shall only apply to the items of
Work requiring correction.
28. Contractor warrants and guarantees to Owner that all Work will be in accordance with the
Contract Documents and will not be defective. Prompt notice of all defects shall be given
to Contractor. If, within twelve (12) months following the date of completion of the
Work, or such longer period of time as may be set forth in the Agreement (including the
bid), prescribed by law, prescribed by the terms of any applicable warranty given by a
materials supplier or required by or a part of the Agreement, any Work is found to be
defective, Contractor shall promptly, without cost to Owner, and in accordance with
Owner's written instructions, either correct such defective Work, or, if it has been rejected
by Owner, remove it from the site, and replace it with non-defective work. If Contractor
does not promptly comply with the terms of such instructions, or in an emergency where
delay would cause serious risk of loss or damage, Owner may have the defective Work
corrected or the rejected, removed and replaced, and all direct and indirect costs of such
removal and replacement, including compensation for additional professional services,
shall be paid by Contractor. Any defective Work corrected by Contractor in accordance
DocuSign Envelope ID: F28A68F7-CDDD-4FBA-9B6D-8C1C2CDFBE5C
11
with this Section 28, shall extend the warranty for an additional one (1) year from the
date of the correction of the defective Work on the same terms and con ditions as the

correction.
29. If Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the
Agreement and fails within a seven day (7) period after receipt of written notice from the
Owner to correct such default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may,
without prejudice to other remedies, correct such deficiencies. In such case, the
Agreement may be terminated by Owner or a Change Order shall be issued deducting the

Prices, plus Owner’s actual, out-of-pocket expenses plus a surcharge equal to five percent
(5%).
30. The performance of the Work may be terminated at any time in whole, or from time to

becomes effective. After receipt of a Notice of Termination, and except as otherwise
directed by Owner, Contractor shall, in good faith, and to the best of its ability, do all
things necessary, in the light of such notice and of such requests in implementation
thereof as Owner may make, to assure the efficient, proper closeout of the terminated
Work (including the protection of Owner's property). Among other things, Contractor
shall, except as otherwise directed or approved by Owner:
a. stop the Work on the date and to the extent specified in the Notice of
Termination;
b. place no further orders or subcontracts for services, equipment or materials except
as may be necessary for completion of such portion of the Work as is not
terminated;
c. terminate all orders and subcontracts to the extent that they relate to the
performance of Work terminated by the Notice of Termination;
d. assign to Owner, in the manner and to the extent directed by it, all of the right,
title and interest of Contractor under the orders or subcontracts so terminated, in
which case Owner shall have the right to settle or pay any or all claims arising out
of the termination of such orders and subcontracts;
e. with the approval of Owner, settle all outstanding liabilities and all claims arising
out of such termination or orders and subcontracts; and
f. deliver to Owner, when and as directed by Owner, all documents and all property
which, if the Work had been completed, Contractor would be required to account

If any person or organization to or for whom we
make payment under this Coverage Form has
rights to recover damages from another, those
rights are transferred to us. That person or
organization must do everything necessary to
secure our rights and must do nothing after
"accident" or "loss" to impair them.

However, we waive any right of recovery we
may have against any person, or organization
with whom you have a written contract,
agreement or permit executed prior to the
"loss" that requires a waiver of recovery for
payments made for damages arising out of
your operations done under contract with such
person or organization.
X. UNINTENTIONAL FAILURE TO DISCLOSE
EXPOSURES
SECTION IV – BUSINESS AUTO CONDITIONS,
B.2. Concealment, Misrepresentation, or Fraud
is amended by adding the following:
If you unintentionally fail to disclose any exposures
existing at the inception date of this policy, we will
not deny coverage under this Coverage Part solely
because of such failure to disclose. However, this
provision does not affect our right to collect
additional premium or exercise our right of
cancellation or non-renewal.
Y. MENTAL ANGUISH
SECTION V – DEFINITIONS, C. is replaced by the
following:
“Bodily injury” means bodily injury, sickness or
disease sustained by a person, including mental
anguish or death resulting from bodily injury,
sickness or disease.
Z. LIBERALIZATION
If we revise this endorsement to provide greater
coverage without additional premium charge, we
will automatically provide the additional coverage to
all endorsement holders as of the day the revision
is effective in your state.
