The CMAR also acknowledges that some changes to this Agreement and to the Project might require authorization by the County Commissioners and execution by the County Manager in addition to the Owner's project representative. 6.15 Payment to CMAR [Not used.] ARTICLE 7 GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE AND PAYMENT 7.1 Guaranteed Maximum Price The CMAR shall be required to give a Guaranteed Maximum Price for the Project. The Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be documented by the CMAR as defined in Article 12 and, once established, the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be subject to modification only as defined in this Agreement. 7.1.1 Guaranteed Maximum Price Proposal The Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be provided by the CMAR when requested by the Owner, but in no event before the completion of one hundred percent of schematic design documents for the Project by the Designer, and in no event later than sixty (60) days after construction documents for the Project are released by the Designer for permitting, bidding and construction. The Owner shall accept such Guaranteed Maximum Price or negotiate and reach agreement with the CMAR on a different Guaranteed Maximum Price within thirty (30) days of the date of the receipt unless such time is mutually agreed to be extended. If the Owner does not accept a Guaranteed Maximum Price within the time period herein provided, such price shall be presumed to be rejected by the Owner. 7.1.2 Consideration of Proposal In the event the Owner does not accept the CMAR's proposed Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Owner may terminate the Agreement in accordance with Article 9. 7.1.3 Construction Contracts Construction contracts for the Work required for the Project shall be between the CMAR and Contractors. The CMAR shall request and receive bids for each contract and shall advise the Owner with respect to award of a contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The CMAR shall enter into a contract with that bidder after receipt of approval of award from the Owner. 7.1.4 Work bYCMAR All of the labor and materials for the Work of the Project as described in the Drawings and Specifications developed. by the Designer shall be performed by Contractors, except as specifically provided in this paragraph. The CMAR may perform a portion of the Work only if (1) bidding produces no responsible, responsive bidder for that portion of the Work, no responsive, responsible bidder will execute a contract for the bid portion of the Work, or a Contractor defaults and apre- qualified replacement cannot be obtained in a timely manner, and (2) the Owner approves performance of the Work by the CMAR. In the event the CMAR performs a portion of the Work under this paragraph, the CMAR shall be entitled to its actual direct cost to perform the Work, including direct labor costs with reasonable burden, actual material costs, actual equipment costs, and actual subcontract payments, without markup for overhead or profit. Any other direct costs of the Work performed by the CMAR will only be paid if approved by the Owner in advance of performing the Work. 7.1.5 Elements of the Guaranteed Maximum Price The Guaranteed Maximum Price shall include the total Cost of the Work, including the CMAR Fee for Services, the reimbursable costs for General Conditions provided by the CMAR, if any, and the _CMAR Contingency, if any, all as defined herein. The Guaranteed Maximum Price includes the cost of all labor, equipment, supplies, materials, services and allowances to complete the Project. The Guaranteed 21 Maximum Price shall be directly correlated to the specific design Drawings and Specifications in existence at the time the Guaranteed Maximum Price is prepared. The assumptions used in the preparation of the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be identified by the CMAR in its Guaranteed Maximum Price proposal. 7.1.6 Sales and Use Taxes The Guaranteed Maximum Price shall include those sales and use taxes applicable to the Project that are legally enacted at the time the Guaranteed Maximum Price is established. Sales and use taxes shall be accounted for separately in the Guaranteed Maximum Price and in the payment application submitted by the CMAR. Any increase or decrease in such taxes that affect the Guaranteed Maximum Price and that are enacted after the Guaranteed Maximum Price is submitted shall be incorporated into that price by change order. 7.1.7 Change in Scooe The Owner may change the scope of the Project or a part thereof and the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall then be adjusted as provided in Paragraph 7.3. 7.2 Cost of the Work The term "Cost of the Work" shall include all amounts paid by the Owner to the CMAR other than General Conditions and Fixed Fee costs for payment to all separate Contractors, suppliers and equipment lessors for all the Work of the Project as described in the Design Drawings and Specifications developed by the Designer. The Cost of the Work shall be adjusted for all discounts obtained on payments by the CMAR or any Contractor, which shall be for the benefit of the Project and the Owner. Trade discounts, rebates, refunds, and amounts received from sales of surplus or salvaged materials and equipment shall accrue to the Owner, and the CMAR shall make provisions so they can be secured and will reduce the Guaranteed Maximum Price accordingly. Amounts which accrue to the Owner in accordance with this paragraph shall be accounted for and credited to the Owner as a deduction from the Cost of the Work. 7.2.1 Exclusions from Cost of the Work The Cost of the Work shall not include the following: 7.2.1.1 The CMAR's fee for Services and reimbursable costs for General Conditions; 7.2.1.2 All professional fees paid by the Owner to the Designer or other consultants retained directly by the Owner; 7.2.1.3 All costs paid directly by the Owner to contractors or suppliers retained directly by the Owner and outside the scope of the Guaranteed Maximum Price; 7.2.1.4 All Additional Services costs as defined herein. 7.3 Adjustments to the Guaranteed Maximum Price The CMAR understands, confirms and agrees that its responsibility hereunder is to construct the Project in accordance with the Drawings and Specifications. It is recognized that the Guaranteed Maximum Price is based on complete design documents unless the Owner requests that the Guaranteed Maximum Price be fixed at an earlier stage in the design process. The CMAR shall notify the Owner if the CMAR believes that it is being asked to fix the Guaranteed Maximum Price on incomplete, ambiguous or under-developed drawings and specifications. In those instances in which the Drawings and Specifications are not fully developed at the time the Guaranteed Maximum Price is established, the CMAR shall exercise reasonable care and judgment to determine the intent of the design and shall calculate the Guaranteed Maximum Price on the basis of the quality of construction, materials, and finishes that can be reasonably inferred from the design documents or other specified sources. The CMAR shall determine unit prices and the Cost of the Work and shall make those reasonable assumptions regarding the project scope and the quality of the intended construction as may be necessary to fully document the Guaranteed Maximum Price. 7.3.1 Changes to the Work The Owner may, at any time and for any reason, by written notice or order, make changes or modifications to the Work or add Work within the general scope of the Project, including without limitation changes to the Drawings and Specifications, the Master Schedule, the sequence, manner or method of performing the Work, or the work being provided by the Owner or its separate contractors. The amount of adjustment to increase or decrease the Cost of the Work resulting from a change in the Project shall be determined in one or more of the following ways: 7.3.1.1 By mutual acceptance of a lump sum, properly itemized and supported by cost data; or 22 7.3.1.2 By unit prices defined in a contract with a Contractor; or 7.3.1.3 By the cost of such Work determined on the basis of the cost records for the changed work. In the event actual costs are to be reimbursed, the CMAR shall keep and present in such form as may be agreeable to the Owner and Designer an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data of the actual Cost of the Work. 7.3.2 Directive to Proceed In the event the CMAR and the Owner cannot agree that an adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price or the Master Schedule is warranted, or cannot agree on the compensation for a change in the Work or on an increase in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the CMAR shall, if so directed by the Owner in writing, nevertheless proceed with the Work, and any adjustment to the Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be negotiated by the parties at a later date, utilizing the dispute resolution procedures under this Agreement if necessary. 7.3.3 Unit Prices If unit prices are utilized in the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Guaranteed Maximum Price Proposal shall document the estimates on which the unit prices are based. If the CMAR later determines that the quantities on which unit prices are based will vary from the quantities utilized by the CMAR to fix the unit prices and calculate the Guaranteed Maximum Price, the CMAR shall within five (5) days after determining that the quantities will vary from the estimates notify the Designer and the Owner in writing and forecast the amount of the variance. If the estimated quantities available to and used by the CMAR to establish the unit prices are so changed that application of the agreed unit prices to the quantities or work proposed cause substantial inequity to the Owner or the CMAR, the applicable unit prices and Guaranteed Maximum Price shall be adjusted. 7.3.4 Unforeseen Conditions Should the CMAR encounter unforeseen conditions at the Project site materially differing from those shown on the Drawings or indicated in the Specifications or differing materially from those ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent in work of the character provided for in this Agreement, the CMAR shall immediately, and in no event more than five (5) days later, give notice to the Owner of such conditions before they are disturbed. The Owner .and the Designer shall thereupon promptly investigate the conditions and if they find that they materially differ from those shown on the Drawings or indicated in the Specifications, they shall at once make such changes in the Drawings and/or Specifications as they may find necessary. Any increase or decrease in the Guaranteed Maximum Price resulting from such changes shall be adjusted in the manner provided herein for adjustments as to extra and/or additional Work and changes. However, neither the Owner nor the Designer shall be liable or responsible for additional work, costs, or changes to the Work that could have been reasonably determined from any reports, surveys, and analyses made available for the CMAR's review or that could have been discovered by the CMAR through the performance of its obligations pursuant to the Contract Documents. 7.3.5 Minor Changes The Designer shall have the authority to order minor changes in the Project consistent with the intent of the Drawings and Specifications and not involving an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or change of the construction completion date. Such changes may be affected by written order only. 7.4 Fixed Fee and General Conditions Costs The Owner shall compensate the CMAR for the CMAR's Fixed Fee and reimbursable General Conditions Costs in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement as specifically as follows: 7.4.1 Fixed Fees The Fixed Fees payable to the CMAR shall be: Six Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($6,500) for the pre- construction and procurement phases that is included in the GMP provided the GMP is accepted by the Owner.

These may be accomplished by a Field Order. Such alterations shall not invalidate the Contract Documents nor release the surety. If the Contractor believes that any minor change or alteration authorized by the Designer entitles the Contractor to an increase in the Contract Price and/or an extension of Contract Time, the Contractor may make a claim therefore as provided in Article 14 and/or Article 15 of these General Conditions. 14.4 Except in an emergency endangering life or property, no change shall be made by the Contractor except upon prior written Change Order, Construction Change Directive or Field Order authorizing such change.
