DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT
---------------------
This Development Agreement ("AGREEMENT"), made and entered into as of
the 16th day of November, 1999, by and between GP Ohio, L.L.C., a Rhode Island
limited liability company ("Developer"), and Progressive Casualty Insurance
Company, an Ohio corporation ("Progressive").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Progressive has acquired the fee interest in certain parcel(s)
of land, located in ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Village, Ohio, as more particularly depicted on the
site plan attached hereto as EXHIBIT A ("Property") and desires to have
developed on the Property a data center and operations facility ("Building")
containing approximately 80,000 square feet of gross rentable space and
incidental improvements, including surface parking of approximately 70 spaces
and landscaping;
WHEREAS, Developer will oversee, develop and construct the improvements
more particularly delineated herein in a timely manner;
WHEREAS, Developer and Progressive desire to set forth their
understanding of the respective rights and responsibilities of the parties in
connection with the development, design, construction, equipping and furnishing
of the Project (hereinafter defined) and the payment for such services; and
WHEREAS, the obligations of Developer hereunder are being guaranteed by
Gilbane Properties, Inc.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth
herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties do hereby agree as
follows:
1. RECITALS INCORPORATED. The recitals are hereby incorporated by
reference and made a part of this Agreement.
2. THE PROJECT. Developer shall cause the completion of the design,
construction and development of the Building upon the Property consisting of the
base building elements (including parking) and interior improvements and the
site work on the Property consisting of landscaping, sidewalks, driveways and
related improvements, the preliminary scope of which is outlined on EXHIBIT B
attached hereto and as shall be outlined in the Scope Documents to be prepared
and approved in accordance with Section 2(b), below (collectively, the
"Project") all in accordance with the final set of approved plans, drawings,
specifications and schedules (collectively the "Plans"). As part of the "Work"
defined below, Developer (A) shall advise Progressive and take the lead in
negotiating and obtaining all governmental and private approvals necessary or
required in connection with acquiring the Property, (B) shall enter into a
5
construction contract with Gilbane Building Company ("Contractor"), which
Contractor shall hire subcontractors for construction of the Project, (C) shall
retain, or cause to be retained, (x) ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Rittlemann Assoc., as
architect ("Architect") to perform architectural and design services, and (y) ▇.
▇. ▇▇▇▇, as engineers ("Engineer"), and other professionals to perform all other
professional services required for the design and construction of the Project
and (D) shall advise Progressive and take the lead in negotiating and obtaining
all governmental subsidies. The contract with Contractor shall provide for
payment to Contractor of a profits fee of 2% for contractor management services.
All major subcontractors and equipment suppliers retained by Contractor shall be
identified on a list submitted to Progressive for Progressive's approval within
ten days after the date of execution of this Agreement. Progressive shall not
unreasonably withhold or unduly delay its approval of the list of such major
subcontractors and equipment suppliers. If Progressive timely objects to any
major subcontractor or equipment supplier, Progressive, Developer and Contractor
shall in good faith attempt to resolve their disagreement. If the parties are
unable to reach agreement on the list of major subcontractors and equipment
suppliers within a reasonable period, the matter shall be submitted to mediation
as provided in Section 13.
(a) The "Work" shall mean all professional design and
engineering services and project administration for, and the completed
new construction of, the Project in accordance with the Contract
Documents (as hereinafter defined), in a timely manner with a specified
target delivery date of October 30, 2000 (the "Delivery Date") and
Final Completion Date (as hereinafter defined) of the 90th day after
the Substantial Completion Date (as hereinafter defined), and includes
labor necessary to produce such new construction, and materials and
equipment incorporated or to be incorporated in such construction. All
Work shall be performed in accordance with the Contract Documents. The
"Contract Documents" shall consist of this Agreement, the Plans, the
Building Description and Outline Specifications, the Schematic Building
Plans, the Master Site Plan, the Project Schedule (hereinafter defined)
and Change Orders.
(b) Within the time frame established under the Project
Schedule, Developer shall cause to be prepared and delivered to
Progressive the "Building Description and Outline Specifications",
"Schematic Building Plans" and "Master Site Plan" for the Project
("Scope Documents"), together with a supplement to this Development
Agreement in substantially the form as that attached hereto as EXHIBIT
B-1, formally adopting such Building Description and Outline
Specifications, Schematic Building Plans and Master Site Plan into this
Agreement. Progressive shall have 15 days after receipt of Developer's
submittals to raise any objection thereto. If Progressive disapproves
of the Scope Documents, Progressive's notice of disapproval shall
specify in detail the basis for such disapproval. Developer shall
promptly cause to be made such revisions to the Scope Documents as may
be necessary to address Progressive's objections, and shall resubmit
the Scope Documents for Progressive's approval to maintain the Project
Schedule. Progressive shall review such revisions and notify Developer
whether Progressive approves or disapproves the Scope Documents as
modified. This process shall be repeated, if necessary, until
Progressive's objections
2
6
have been addressed and Progressive has approved the Scope Documents;
provided that, if the parties do not reach final agreement on the Scope
Documents on or before November 10, 1999, either party shall have the
right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other at any
time thereafter and prior to the parties reaching agreement on the
Scope Documents; provided that Progressive reimburses Developer for
out-of-pocket third party expenses (not including Gilbane Building
Company) incurred by Developer consistent with the schedule of
anticipated expense categories set forth on EXHIBIT E attached hereto
and pays to Developer the termination fee as required under Section 37.
If Progressive fails to give Developer written notice of disapproval of
the Scope Documents within 15 days after receipt of any submittal by
Developer, Progressive shall be deemed to have approved the same. Upon
approval of the Scope Documents, Progressive and Developer shall
execute a supplement to this Agreement in substantially the form as
that attached hereto as EXHIBIT B-1, formally adopting the Scope
Documents as part of EXHIBIT B to this Agreement.
(c) All Work shall be performed with all new material in a
good and workmanlike manner, in accordance with the Plans mutually
approved by Developer and Progressive. Developer shall cause to be
delivered to Progressive proposed drawings, specifications and
schedules consisting of (i) design development drawings and
specifications and (ii) finish schedule. Such deliverables shall be
prepared, reviewed, revised and approved or disapproved by the parties
hereto in accordance with Sections 2 and 5, hereof, to produce a final
set of Plans. Progressive's approval of all of the above plans,
drawings, specifications and schedules shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed, and except as hereinafter set forth,
Progressive shall not be entitled to condition its approval of such
plans, drawings, specifications and schedules upon the inclusion
therein of any design specifications that are materially inconsistent
with the Scope Documents (including requiring a higher performance
standard than any performance standard expressly set forth in the Scope
Documents). Progressive's approval of such plans, drawings,
specifications and schedules shall not be deemed an acknowledgement,
representation or warranty that any of such plans, drawings,
specifications or schedules meet code or represent good engineering,
design or construction practices or be deemed to waive any design flaw
or code violation. In the event Progressive disapproves plans,
drawings, specifications or schedules or any portion thereof or any
modifications thereto, Progressive's notice of disapproval shall
specify in detail the reasonable basis for such disapproval. Developer
shall promptly cause to be made such revisions to the plans, drawings,
specifications or schedules as may be necessary to address
Progressive's reasonable objections, and shall resubmit the plans,
drawings, specifications or schedules to Progressive for Progressive's
approval to maintain the Project Schedule. Progressive shall review
such revisions and notify Developer whether Progressive approves or
reasonably disapproves the plans, drawings, specifications and
schedules as modified. This process shall be repeated, if necessary,
until Progressive's reasonable objections have been addressed and
Progressive has approved the Plans; provided that, if the parties do
not reach final agreement on the Plans after a reasonable review
period, the matter may be submitted by either party to
3
7
mediation under Section 13. If Progressive fails to give Developer
written notice of disapproval of any plans, drawings, specifications or
schedules within 15 days after receipt of any submittal by Developer,
Progressive shall be deemed to have approved the same.
(d) Developer shall maintain in good order one record copy of
the Plans, Change Orders and other related documents, marked currently
to record changes made during construction, and during construction
Progressive shall have the right to review all such Plans, Change
Orders and other related documents during regular business hours upon
one business day's notice. Upon completion of the design and
construction and prior to termination of this Agreement, Developer
shall deliver to Progressive the following: (i) as-builts (to be
provided by hard copy and computer diskette); (ii) all written
specifications as amended; (iii) complete copies of all operations and
maintenance manuals for all equipment installed in the Project as part
of the Work; (iv) the warranties for the foregoing in conformity with
Section 14 hereof and transfer of the same to Progressive; and (v)
provide the necessary training and validation of operating systems to
ensure a smooth transition to Progressive's management/operation of the
facility.
3. CHANGES IN THE WORK.
(a) A "Change Order" is a written order to Developer signed
and approved by Progressive issued after execution of this Agreement,
authorizing a change in the Work or an adjustment in the Stipulated
Sum, the Delivery Date or the Final Completion Date. The Stipulated Sum
may be changed only by Change Order. The Non-Developer Work (as defined
in Section 19 hereof) shall be incorporated into the Developer's Work
only by Change Order. The Delivery Date and Final Completion Date may
be changed only by Change Order, Force Majeure (hereinafter defined)
and Progressive Delay (hereinafter defined). A Change Order signed by
Developer indicates its agreement therewith, including the adjustment
(if any) in the Stipulated Sum (as defined in Section 7), the Delivery
Date and the Final Completion Date.
(b) Progressive, without invalidating this Agreement, may
order changes in the Work within the general scope of this Agreement
consisting of additions, deletions or other revisions; provided the
Stipulated Sum, the Delivery Date and the Final Completion Date are
adjusted in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Developer which
approval of any proposed change in the Work shall not be unreasonably
withheld, conditioned or delayed. All such changes in the Work must be
authorized by Change Order, and shall be performed under the applicable
conditions of the Contract Documents.
(c) The cost or credit to Progressive resulting from a Change
Order shall be determined by taking into account the increase or
decrease in (i) the engineered cost for labor and materials of all
contractors and subcontractors affected by the Change Order
4
8
and (ii) such contractors' and subcontractors' general overhead as a
result of the Change Order. The Stipulated Sum shall be further
increased or decreased to reflect the parties' agreed upon adjustment
to the Developer's overhead and profit as a result of any Change Order,
as follows: 5% of any net increase or decrease in costs attributable to
a Change Order up to $100,000.00 and 3% of any net increase or decrease
in costs attributable to a Change Order of more than $100,000.00;
provided that no overhead or profit fee shall be charged by Developer
for Change Orders adding any "future equipment" (i.e., generator,
chiller, UPS, EGU's) contemplated in the Scope Documents.
(d) If unit prices are stated in the Contract Documents or
subsequently agreed upon, and if the quantities originally contemplated
are so changed in a proposed Change Order that application of the
agreed unit prices to the quantities of Work proposed will cause
substantial inequity to Progressive or Developer, the applicable unit
prices shall be equitably adjusted.
(e) Developer shall prepare Change Orders for Progressive's
approval and execution and shall have authority to make minor changes
(not material in relation to the intent of this document, the Project
and Project Schedule, Project quality or performance requirements as
hereinafter defined) in the design and construction consistent with the
intent of this Agreement, not materially inconsistent with the Plans,
and not involving an adjustment in the Stipulated Sum or an extension
of the Delivery Date and Final Completion Date.
4. DEVELOPER'S COMPLIANCE RESPONSIBILITIES. Developer shall be
responsible for causing the Work (including, without limitation, all changes
thereto) to comply with all applicable legal requirements existing as of
execution of this Agreement, including (without limitation) requirements of
building codes and zoning codes, all federal, state and municipal laws,
including, without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act, and all
recorded protective covenants and restrictions. Developer shall also be
responsible for obtaining a certificate of occupancy for the Project. If there
is any change between the date hereof and the Final Completion Date in any
applicable legal requirements which requires a change in the Work in order to
avoid a violation of any such applicable legal requirement, Developer shall be
responsible for changing the Work in order to avoid a violation of such legal
requirements, but the parties shall execute a Change Order to adjust the
Stipulated Sum, if applicable, as a result of any increase or decrease in costs
as a result of such change in legal requirements. If there is a change in any
applicable legal requirement but the Work or portion thereof affected by such
change is deemed to be "grandfathered" (i.e., the applicable legal requirement
does not require that the Work be changed), such portion of the Work shall
nevertheless be deemed to be in compliance with such applicable legal
requirements and Developer shall not be required to change the Work to otherwise
comply with such changed legal requirements.
5. CONSTRUCTION TIMETABLE.
5
9
(a) In performing the Work, Developer shall achieve the
milestone dates set forth in the schedule (the "Project Schedule") in
EXHIBIT C attached hereto so that the Substantial Completion Date shall
occur on or before the Delivery Date and the Final Completion Date
shall be achieved on the 90th day after the Substantial Completion
Date. Time shall be of the essence as to the Delivery Date and Final
Completion Date. The Project Schedule shall be updated by Developer
from time to time in accordance with the progress of the Work, and
copies of such updates shall be promptly furnished to Progressive; it
being expressly understood, however, that such updates may not extend
the Delivery Date and Final Completion Date, except pursuant to
subsection 5(b) hereof.
(b) The Delivery Date may be extended only by reason of (i) a
Change Order or (ii) a Progressive Delay, or (iii) the occurrence of
Force Majeure. In the event of a Change Order, the Delivery Date shall
be accelerated or postponed, if at all, only as set forth in such
Change Order. In the event (i) a Progressive Delay or Force Majeure
occurs and (ii) Developer would have otherwise been able to perform all
its obligations under the Contract Documents but for such delay,
Developer's remedy shall be an extension of the Delivery Date by the
number of days equal to the days Developer is actually delayed thereby,
notwithstanding the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts. In the
event of a Progressive Delay or Force Majeure, the Stipulated Sum shall
be subject to an equitable adjustment to reflect the increase or
decrease in costs incurred by Developer as a result of such Progressive
Delay.
(c) If at any time in the course of the performance of its
Work, Developer shall fall materially behind the Project Schedule which
is not due to a Change Order, Force Majeure or Progressive Delay, then
Developer shall promptly submit to Progressive a plan, including
proposed adjustments to the Project Schedule, if any, showing how the
Developer plans to mitigate impact upon the timely completion of the
other portions of the Work and how it plans to accelerate performance
so as to regain any time lost. The cost and expense of overtime, or any
other measures implemented to achieve the foregoing, shall be borne
entirely by Developer.
(d) For purposes herein, "Substantial Completion" (as
identified on the Project Schedule) shall mean the stage in the
progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is
sufficiently complete in accordance with the Plans so that Progressive
can legally occupy or utilize the Work or designated portion thereof
for its intended use. For purposes herein, "Substantial Completion
Date" shall mean the date on which (i) the Architect and Engineer have
certified to Progressive that the Work has been substantially completed
within the definition of "Substantial Completion" set forth above ;
(ii) a certificate of occupancy for the Project has been delivered;
provided, however, that no certificate of occupancy shall be required
of Developer to establish Substantial Completion if and to the extent
such a certificate cannot be obtained because of a failure of
Progressive to complete any of Progressive's Non-Developer Work
(hereinafter defined) or because any Non-Developer Work fails to comply
with any
6
10
applicable governmental codes, regulations, rules, ordinances
or laws (provided that Developer shall not be excused if Progressive
has retained Developer by separate agreement to perform such
Non-Developer Work and it is Developer's default under such separate
agreement that has in fact caused Progressive's failure to complete the
Non-Developer Work or has caused the Non-Developer Work to fail to
comply with any applicable governmental codes, regulations, rules,
ordinances and laws); and (iii) Architect and Engineer deliver to
Progressive a list of "Punch List Items" (as hereinafter defined), if
any.
(e) For purposes herein, "Final Completion Date" shall mean
the date on which Architect and Engineer shall certify to Progressive
that the Work is finally completed and shall be evidenced by (i)
completion of all Punch List Items and (ii) delivery of as-built
drawings and warranties. The parties expressly understand that the
Final Completion Date may be changed only by Change Order, Force
Majeure or Progressive Delay.
(f) The Architect and Engineer shall deliver to Progressive
for Progressive's review and approval a listing of the Punch List Items
that the Architect and Engineer believe Developer is obligated by the
provisions of this Agreement to complete. Progressive shall advise
Developer and the Architect and Engineer within 15 days after receipt
of Architect's and Engineer's lists of Punch List Items of any
additional Punch List Items which Progressive believes Developer is
obligated by the provisions of this Agreement to complete. Any
disagreements between Developer and Progressive regarding Punch List
Items shall be resolved in accordance with Section 13. The term "Punch
List Items" shall mean details of construction and mechanical and
electrical adjustments which are minor in character and do not
materially interfere with Progressive's use or enjoyment of the Project
or designated portion thereof for its business operations, and may also
include landscaping and other items which do not materially affect
Progressive's use of the Project but which cannot be immediately
completed because of weather.
6. PROGRESS PAYMENTS. Payment to Developer of that portion of the
Stipulated Sum included within the Professional Fees/Project Management category
shall be disbursed: (i) 20% to Developer in the first monthly draw, and (ii) the
balance in monthly progress payments on a percentage-of-completion basis, as
hereinafter provided. Payment of that portion of the Stipulated Sum included
within the Construction/Development Costs category shall be disbursed in monthly
progress payments based on actual costs incurred by Developer, as hereinafter
provided. No more than once each calendar month (which the parties expect in the
ordinary course to be by the tenth day of the calendar month), Developer will
submit to Progressive or its designee a requisition ("Requisition") for the
percentage of the Project completed, with respect to payments toward the
Professional Fees/Project Management portion of the Stipulated Sum, and for the
actual costs incurred by Developer, with respect to payments toward the
Construction/Development Costs portion of the Stipulated Sum, through the last
day of the immediately preceding calendar month, less the aggregate of previous
payments made by
7
11
Progressive to Developer hereunder and less Retainage (as hereinafter defined).
Each Requisition will be in the form of AIA Document G702/703 and will be based
on the Schedule of Values. Each Requisition shall be approved in writing by
Developer confirming that the portion of the Work for which payment is requested
has been completed. Each Requisition shall further include a certification by
the Developer that the Developer has paid the Architect and Engineer, the
Contractor and design professionals retained by Developer for all work performed
by such parties for which Developer has received payment under previous
Requisitions, and by the Contractor and major subcontractors that all of their
respective subcontractors have been paid for all work performed by such
subcontractors for which the Contractor has received payment under previous
Requisitions. Within 20 days after the receipt of each approved Requisition,
Progressive shall, unless Progressive and Developer otherwise agree, pay the
full amount requested to Developer to disburse in accordance with the
Requisition. In the case of a dispute, Developer and Progressive shall agree on
the disputed value which shall be deducted from the payment while dispute
resolution in Paragraph 13 is implemented. Progressive understands and
acknowledges that prompt payment of all approved Requisitions is a critical
component in Developer's ability to complete the Project within the time frame
required and if any Requisition is not paid to Developer in full or as otherwise
set forth in the Requisition, within 20 days after its due date, interest shall
accrue (and be immediately due) on the unpaid amounts at the rate of 10% per
annum until paid. As used herein, "Retainage" shall mean an amount equal to 10%
of construction hard costs (but not of design or soft costs for which there
shall be no retainage) until the Work is 50% completed, and zero percent (0%) of
the final 50% of the Work, which Retainage balance shall be released/disbursed
to Developer upon Final Completion of the Work.
7. STIPULATED SUM.
(a) Progressive shall pay to Developer in consideration for
Developer's performance of the Work, an agreed upon stipulated sum (the
"Stipulated Sum"). The Stipulated Sum shall be divided into two
categories, the first category sometimes referred to herein as the
"Professional Fee/Project Management" category and the second category
sometimes referred to as the "Construction/Development Costs" category.
The Stipulated Sum shall be established in coordination with the
preparation and approval of the Scope Documents. Upon approval of the
Scope Documents by Progressive, Developer shall submit to Progressive
the total amount of the "Stipulated Sum" to be paid Developer for the
work hereunder. Progressive shall have ten business days after receipt
of Developer's notice of the Stipulated Sum to object to such amount.
If Progressive timely objects, Developer and Progressive shall
negotiate in good faith to resolve any disagreement and confirm the
Stipulated Sum. If Developer and Progressive are not able to reach
agreement on the Stipulated Sum on or before November 18, 1999, either
party may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the other given
on or after November 19, 1999 and prior to reaching agreement on the
Stipulated Sum; provided that Progressive reimburses Developer for
out-of-pocket third party expenses incurred by Developer and pays to
Developer the termination fee as required under Section 37. Upon
establishment of the Stipulated Sum, the parties shall
8
12
execute the supplement to this Agreement in substantially the form as
that attached hereto as EXHIBIT B-1, establishing the Scope Documents
and Stipulated Sum agreed to by the parties. If Progressive fails to
give Developer written notice of disapproval of the Stipulated Sum
within ten days after receipt of Developer's notice thereof,
Progressive shall be deemed to have approved the same.
(b) Once established, the Stipulated Sum, subject to
adjustment by approved Change Orders constitutes Developer's complete
compensation for the Work and, without limitation, includes
compensation for all (i) design, construction and development services
rendered by Developer, the Architect, the Engineer, the Contractor and
all other subcontractors and design and engineering professionals used
by Developer, Architect, Engineer and/or Contractor pursuant to this
Agreement; (ii) expenses of Developer, the Architect, the Engineer, the
Contractor and all other subcontractors and design and engineering
professionals used by Developer, Architect, Engineer and/or Contractor
including, without limitation, the cost of all equipment, taxes,
royalties, insurance premiums, and permits; (iii) fees earned by
Developer, the Architect, the Engineer, the Contractor and all other
subcontractors and design and engineering professionals used by
Developer, Architect, Engineer and/or Contractor with respect to the
design, construction and development services rendered pursuant to this
Agreement; and (iv) all legal and other fees and expenses incurred by
or on behalf of Developer.
(c) The Stipulated Sum shall be broken into two categories,
one category for professional fees and the second category for all
other construction and development costs included within the scope of
the Work ("Construction/Development Costs"). Within 45 days after the
Final Completion Date, Developer shall submit to Progressive
documentation detailing the total actual costs incurred by the
Developer in completing the Work included within the
Construction/Development Cost category of the Stipulated Sum. If such
final accounting indicates that the total actual costs for that portion
of the Work included within the Construction/Development Cost category
is less than the portion of the Stipulated Sum established by the
parties hereunder, Progressive shall pay Developer one-half of such
savings within 20 days after receipt of Developer's statement and
Progressive shall be deemed to have received a credit against the
Stipulated Sum otherwise due from Progressive to Developer hereunder in
an amount equal to the balance of such savings. If the actual costs of
completing that portion of the Work included within the
Construction/Development Cost category of the Stipulated Sum is greater
than the amount of the Stipulated Sum for such category, Developer
shall be solely responsible for such excess costs. Any decrease in the
Stipulated Sum due to a Change Order modifying the scope of the Work
shall accrue 100% to the benefit of Progressive. Progressive shall have
the right to audit Developer's and Contractor's books and records to
verify actual costs incurred by Developer and Contractor for all Work
included within the Construction/Development Cost category of the
Stipulated Sum; and Developer and Contractor shall make their
9
13
books and records available to Progressive and its accountants and
agents during regular business hours.
8. INSURANCE.
(a) Developer shall maintain until final completion or, as the
case may be, shall be responsible for ensuring that Contractor
maintain, as part of the Project and at no additional expense to
Progressive, the insurance set forth in clause (b) below. The Developer
shall also be responsible for the filing and settling of claims and
liaison with insurance adjusters. The Developer shall send a copy of
all policies to Progressive, which shall be deemed to have approved of
such policies unless, within 30 days after receipt thereof, it shall by
notice in writing advise the Developer to the contrary.
(b) The Contractor shall maintain worker's compensation
insurance, commercial general liability insurance (on an occurrence
basis), automobile liability insurance and umbrella liability insurance
with companies reasonably satisfactory to Progressive. The general
liability policy shall be for a combined single limit for personal
injury and property damage of not less than $2,000,000, and shall
provide coverage, at a minimum, for (i) broad form contractual
liability; (ii) products liability and completed operations; and (iii)
broad form property damage coverage. The automobile liability policy
shall be written for a combined single limit for bodily injury and
property damage of not less than $1,000,000. The umbrella liability
policy shall be for a maximum single limit of $20,000,000 for
supplementing the comprehensive general liability policy and automobile
liability policy. In the case of worker's compensation coverage,
insurance shall be in amount statutorily required. The comprehensive
general liability automobile liability and umbrella liability insurance
policies shall name Progressive, Developer and any mortgagee of the
Property ("Lender") as additional insureds. The foregoing insurance
coverage shall be at the expense of Developer. The Contractor policies
shall be maintained throughout the Project duration, shall include a
Waiver of Subrogation, shall provide that such policy may not be
cancelled or reduced in coverage without thirty days notice and shall
have deductable levels of not more than: Worker's Compensation
$250,000; Commercial General Liability %150,000; and automibile
liability policy $0 (zero dollars).
(c) Progressive shall also procure and maintain a builder's
risk insurance policy on an "all risk" 100% replacement cost basis and
shall name Developer and Contractor, as additional insureds.
9. ARCHITECT, ENGINEER AND OTHER PROFESSIONALS. Developer represents
that the design agreements (the "Design Agreements") with Architect, Engineer
and other professionals retained by Developer and/or Contractor for the Work
shall, without limitation, contain the following:
10
14
(a) The Architect and Engineer shall be required to carry
errors and omissions insurance, on an occurrence basis, in an amount
not less than $2,000,000, and such other professionals shall be
required to carry errors and omissions insurance in amounts reasonably
acceptable to Developer and to Progressive. All such professionals
shall be required to indemnify Progressive against errors and omissions
including patent infringement; and
(b) The rights to use the Plans and other related documents
prepared in connection with the Work are and shall remain under the
control of Progressive and may not be used by others without
Progressive's consent (except that Developer and its agents may use
such Plans and related documents only in connection with their
performance of this Agreement). Such professionals shall be required to
deliver to Progressive copies, including reproducible copies and
computer diskettes, of the Plans and other related documents for
information and reference in connection with Progressive's use and
occupancy of the Project. Further, the Plans and other related
documents may be used by Developer and Progressive, in whole or in
part, or in modified form, for completion and maintenance of the
Project by others, without further employment of, or payment of any
compensation to, Architect, Engineer and other design professionals, in
which event, Developer and Progressive shall release such professionals
from any responsibility for the conformance of the incomplete portions
of the Project to the Plans and other related documents and shall
indemnify such professionals against and hold them harmless from all
claims arising from causes other than the negligence or fault of such
professionals. In the event of the termination of this Agreement for
whatever reason, Developer shall immediately return and deliver to
Progressive all originals, copies and reproductions of the Plans and
other related documents then in the possession or control of Developer,
Architect, Engineer and such other professionals retained by Developer.
10. PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE BONDS. Developer shall, at its own cost and
expense, procure payment and performance bonds for (i) each subcontractor or
materialman, irrespective of contract value, involved with the Building envelope
(exterior or roof) and (ii) at Developer's discretion, each subcontractor or
materialman whose contract for the Project exceeds $100,000 in the aggregate.
Progressive shall be a co-obligee with respect to such bonds.
11. DELAY DAMAGES. If the Substantial Completion Date does not occur on
or before the Delivery Date, as such date may be extended by reason of Change
Order, Force Majeure, or Progressive Delay, then Developer shall pay to
Progressive, as liquidated damages for each business day of such delay, the Per
▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Damage Amount from the Delivery Date until the Substantial Completion
Date ("Delay Damages"). The "Per ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Damage Amount" shall be $3,000.00.
12. TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT. If Developer defaults or fails or
neglects to carry out its Work in accordance with the Contract Documents,
Progressive may give written notice that Progressive intends to terminate this
Agreement, which notice shall contain a reasonably
11
15
detailed explanation of the reasons for the proposed termination. Developer
shall correct the defaults, failure or neglect within 10 days after being given
such notice; provided, however, if (i) the nature of such defaults, failure or
neglect is such that they are not reasonably capable of being corrected within
such 10 day period and (ii) Developer notifies Progressive of a reasonable
alternative period reasonably acceptable to Progressive within fifteen days of
receipt of such notice, Developer shall be allowed such reasonable alternative
period to correct the defaults, failure or neglect so long as Developer promptly
commences and diligently pursues such corrections to completion. If Developer
fails to make such corrections within the 30 day period or fails to commence and
diligently pursue to completion such corrections within the alternative period,
then Progressive may, at its sole discretion and without prejudice to any other
remedy, (x) make good such deficiencies and cause the deduction of the cost
thereof from the payment due Developer or (y) with fifteen days notice,
terminate the employment of Developer and take possession of the site and of all
materials, equipment, tools and construction equipment and machinery thereon
owned by Developer and, if Progressive so chooses, finish the Work by whatever
method Progressive may deem expedient. If the expense of finishing the Work
exceeds the unpaid balance of the Stipulated Sum, Developer shall pay the
difference to Progressive on demand.
Upon termination hereunder, those contracts for the design and/or
construction of the Work designated by Progressive shall be assigned to
Progressive for Progressive to use at Progressive's option to complete the Work.
Progressive's remedies set forth hereunder are not exclusive, and Progressive
has the right to pursue any other right or remedy available to it at law or in
equity.
13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Any dispute arising out of or relating to this
Agreement shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this
Section 13, which shall be the sole and exclusive procedure for the resolution
of any such dispute.
(a) The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve any
dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement promptly by direct
negotiation between executives who have authority to settle the
controversy and who are at a higher level of management than the
persons with direct responsibility for administration of this
Agreement. Any party may give the other party written notice of any
dispute not resolved in the normal course of business. Within fifteen
(15) days after delivery of the notice, the receiving party shall
submit to the other a written response. The notice and the response
shall include (a) a statement of each party's position and a summary of
arguments supporting that position, and (b) the name and title of the
executive who will represent that party and of any other person who
will accompany the executive. Within 30 days after the delivery of the
disputing party's notice, the executives of both parties shall meet at
a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as often as they
reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the dispute. All
reasonable requests for information made by one party to the other will
be honored. All negotiations pursuant to this clause are confidential
and shall be treated as compromise and settlement negotiations for
purposes of applicable rules of evidence.
12
16
(b) If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation within
45 days of the disputing party's notice, or if the parties fail to meet
within 20 days, the parties shall endeavor to settle the dispute by
mediation using a mediator and mediation mutually agreeable to the
parties. In the event that the parties are unable or unwilling to agree
on a mediator or the mediation procedure to employ, then the parties
shall endeavor to settle the dispute by mediation under the then
current American Arbitration Association Commercial Mediation Rules.
The cost of the mediator's services incurred in conjunction with any
mediation conducted under this Section 13 shall be shared equally by
the parties.
(c) If the dispute has not been resolved by non-binding means
as provided herein within 90 days of the initiation of such procedure,
either party may initiate litigation upon 10 days written notice to the
other party; provided, however, that if one party has requested the
other to participate in a non-binding procedure and the other has
failed to participate, the requesting party may initiate litigation
before the expiration of the above period.
(d) All applicable statutes of limitation and defenses upon
the passage of time shall be tolled while the procedures specified in
this Section 13 are pending. The parties will take such action, if any,
required to effectuate such tolling.
(e) Each party is required to continue to perform its
obligations under this contract pending final resolution of any dispute
arising out of or related to this Agreement, unless to do so would be
impossible or impracticable under the circumstances.
(f) If Progress Payment (Paragraph 6) has been reduced due to
Progressive action, the amount deducted shall accrue interest as stated
in Paragraph 32 if it is determined in the Dispute Resolution that the
deduction from payment was not justified.
14. WARRANTIES.
(a) Developer warrants and represents to Progressive that the
Work (i) will be completed in accordance with the Contract Documents,

one year time period set forth in Section 14(b), Developer shall
correct it or cause it to be corrected promptly after written notice
from Progressive to do so. Developer shall not have any liability for
any claimed breach of the above guarantee unless Progressive gives
Developer written notice of breach of such guarantee, specifying the
nature of the breach, within one year after the Substantial Completion
Date.
(d) On the first anniversary of the date following the
Substantial Completion Date, Developer shall assign, and cause
Contractor to assign, to Progressive the nonexclusive right along with
Developer and Contractor to enforce, at Progressive's cost, if
Progressive elects to pursue such enforcement, any and all warranties
which Developer or Contractor may have relating to construction of the
Project or the Work provided under any construction and/or supply
contracts now or hereafter entered into by Developer or Contractor for
construction of the Project and the Work. After such assignment,
Progressive shall have the right, at Progressive's cost, to pursue any

of the construction or condition of the Project, excepting only claims
against Developer for (i) fraud or willful misconduct, (ii) Delay
Damages, and/or (iii) failure to complete the Work in accordance with
the Contract Documents and the terms of this Agreement.
15. LIEN REMOVAL.
(a) If, at any time, there is any lien or claim of any kind
whatsoever filed against the Project by Contractor, a subcontractor,
Architect, Engineer or other design professional or anyone claiming
under or through Developer, Contractor, a subcontractor, Architect,
Engineer or other design professional for work performed or
14
18
materials, supplies or equipment furnished in connection with the Work,
Developer shall, within 60 days, or such shorter period as is required
by any loan secured by the Project, after the filing of same, cause
such lien or encumbrance to be canceled and discharged of record by
payment, bonding or otherwise, at Developer's sole cost and expense,
and at no cost to Progressive.
(b) If any lien or other encumbrance required to be removed at
Developer's sole cost and expense pursuant to subsections 15(a),
hereof, is not canceled and discharged of record as aforesaid,
Progressive shall have the right to take such action as Progressive
shall deem appropriate (which shall include the right to cause such
lien or other encumbrance to be canceled and discharged of record), and
in such event, all costs and expenses incurred by Progressive in
connection therewith (including, without limitation, premiums for any
bond furnished in connection therewith, and reasonable attorneys' fees,
court costs and disbursements), together with interest thereon at the
rate set forth in Section 32 hereof, shall be paid by Developer to
Progressive, as applicable, on demand, or at the option of Progressive,
as applicable, deducted from any payment then due or thereafter
becoming due to Developer in accordance with provisions of this
Agreement; and such deducted amount to be paid to Progressive.
16. PROGRESSIVE DELAY. For purposes hereof, a Progressive Delay shall
mean delays or hindrances in the Work caused by the acts or omissions of
Progressive in its performance of its obligations under this Agreement for the
Project, or its failure to respond and give approvals and/or disapprovals within
10 business days after Progressive's Authorized Representative has acknowledged
receipt of submittal. In the event of a Progressive Delay, Developer shall seek
to minimize the period of delay or hindrance by means which include, without
limitation, seeking alternate sources of labor or materials or acceleration of
the Work. If in seeking to minimize the period of delay or hindrance added costs
would be incurred, Developer shall have no obligation to act unless Progressive
executes a Change Order to cover such added costs. If Developer wishes to make a
claim for an extension of the Delivery Date and Final Completion Date or
increase in the Stipulated Sum by reason of a Progressive Delay, Developer shall
give prompt notice to Progressive of such claim.
17. FORCE MAJEURE. For purposes hereof, a Force Majeure shall mean
delays or hindrances in the Work caused by (i) acts of God; (ii) strikes, labor
disputes, labor shortages or material shortages (for reasons outside of
Developer's reasonable control using Developer's professional expertise and good
faith diligent efforts); (iii) blackouts; (iv) acts of public enemy; (v) orders
of any kind of the government of the United States or of the State of Ohio or

for a 30 day period by the National Weather Bureau for the Cleveland, Ohio
metropolitan area); (xiii) floods; (xiv) partial or entire failure of public
utilities affecting the Project; (xv) delays associated with the existence,
removal or remediation of any Regulated

diligent efforts); (xvii) delays due to unforeseen soil or other underground
conditions; or (xviii) any other similar cause or event beyond Developer's
control. Developer shall give notice to Progressive of the occurrence of any
event of Force Majeure that may give rise to a claim for an extension of the
Delivery Date and Final Completion Date or adjustment to the Stipulated Sum as
soon as reasonably possible after the discovery by Developer of such Force
Majeure event. Developer shall thereafter use all reasonable diligence in
attempting to overcome or lessen the impact of such Force Majeure event and
shall keep Progressive reasonably informed of Developer's progress in mitigating
the effects of any such Force Majeure event. Developer shall cooperate with
Progressive, and allow Progressive to participate in attempting, to resolve or
mitigate any such Force Majeure event, but Progressive shall not have any
obligation to do so.

of the Work, including, but not limited to, any mechanics or construction liens
arising as a result thereof, (ii) any failure of the Project or Work to comply
with any applicable governmental laws, ordinances, rules and regulations in
effect as of the Substantial Completion Date, (iii) any negligence of Developer,
the Contractor or any subcontractor, (iv) any breach of Developer's warranties
and representations under this Agreement, and (v) Developer's failure to comply

Agreement; provided that such indemnity and hold harmless shall not apply to any
loss, liability, damage or expense, including attorneys' fees, to the extent
arising out of any negligent act or omission of Progressive or any officer,
employee, agent, representative or contractor of Progressive.
19. NON-DEVELOPER WORK. Any other work, installations, furniture,
fixtures and equipment relating to the Project desired by Progressive, to the
extent not included within the scope of the Work under the Plans shall be deemed
to be "Non-Developer Work" and shall be performed by and at the sole cost of
Progressive. Developer shall cooperate with and afford Progressive's separate
contractors reasonable opportunity for introduction and storage of their
materials and equipment in a reasonably safe and secure area for execution of
their Non-Developer Work. All such materials and equipment shall be insured by
Progressive or its contractors or subcontractors, and all risk of loss,
liability and responsibility for such stored materials and equipment shall
belong to Progressive or its contractors or subcontractors. Any and all such
Non-Developer Work performed by or on behalf of Progressive shall be performed
in such a manner so as to cause the least amount of interference with
Developer's completion of the Work; and Developer shall have overall control of
coordinating any such Non-Developer Work so as to insure that such Non-Developer
Work does not hinder or delay completion of the Work.

tools, construction equipment, machinery, surplus materials, waste materials and
rubbish and provide the Project in a clean state (i.e., relative to the Work).

in accordance with, the laws of the State of Ohio. If any provision of this
Agreement or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to
any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Agreement shall
not be affected thereby and each provision of the Agreement shall be valid and
enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.

28. NO WAIVER. The failure of Progressive to insist upon the strict
performance of any provisions of the Contract Documents, the failure of

of interest exceed the maximum rate of interest
19
23
permitted to be charged by law) from the date due until paid, compounded
monthly, but the payment of such interest shall not excuse or cure any default
by any party under this Agreement. "Prime Rate" means the highest base rate on
corporate loans posted by at least 75% of the 30 largest banks in the United
States as published from time to time by THE WALL STREET JOURNAL.

Agreement by facsimile signature which facsimile signature shall be deemed to be
an original signature.
37. CONTINGENCY. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement

shall be contingent upon (a) Developer obtaining government approvals, permits
and licenses necessary or required for the start of construction of the Project,
and (b) Progressive and Developer agreeing on the Scope Documents and Stipulated
Sum as contemplated under Sections 2(b) and 7(a). Upon satisfaction of
contingencies (a) and (b), prior to commencement of construction of the Project,
Developer shall notify Progressive of Developer's intent to commence
construction of the Project and Progressive shall have 3 days after receipt of
any such notice to give notice of termination of this Agreement; the failure of
Progressive timely to terminate upon receipt of such notice shall be deemed a
waiver of Progressive's right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 37.
In addition, if such contingencies have not been satisfied or waived on or
before November 18, 1999, Progressive and/or Developer shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement effective as of November 19, 1999 by written notice to

all times following the date Work commences, Developer will keep a copy of such
Notice of Commencement posted in a conspicuous place on the Project site.

This section outlines the design specifications, which have been developed for
Progressive's requirements.
I. GENERAL PROJECT OVERVIEW
Project Description
-------------------
Progressive intends to develop a state-of-the-art Data/Information Systems
Center in suburban ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Village, Ohio. The project will be master planned to
accommodate growth.
The Phase I project is designed to house the data center for Progressive's
primary computer and processing equipment. The Phase I building will be
approximately 80,000 square feet comprised of the following space:
37,600 sf Data Processing Area
25,000 sf Mechanical Room/Utility & Support Area
2,400 sf Loading
11,550 sf Office/Support Area
3,450 sf Core Area
-------
80,000 sf Total Area *
* A generator building of approximately 6,000 -square-feet will be provided
The design criteria for the mechanical and electrical systems will be as
follows:
- Uninterruptible Power Supply = 2N+2
- Generators = 2N
- Chilled Water Plant = 2N
- Make-up Water = 2N
- Fire Protection = N
- Electrical Distribution = 2N
- Chilled Water Distribution = 1.5N
- Other = N
The above design criteria is based on the final system configuration with all
future equipment installed.

28
The building shall be designed to accommodate state-of-the-art systems with the
intent of expanding to meet long-term data processing requirements. The building
utility infrastructure will enable building operation to be independent of local
utilities during an outage for approximately three days for on-site fuel and one
day for water storage. For the office/support area design and planning will
incorporate relevant office building technology and also provide an
infrastructure for long-term future growth and ongoing facility change.
Building Concept
----------------
The exterior building appearance in both design and finish shall be responsive
to surrounding topography and the corporate image/culture the Company intends to
portray. The building will be broken into four (4) principal elements: the data
processing area; office/support areas; the entrance/ core lobby area, and; the
mechanical/electrical and utility service area. These building elements will be
focused in a single-story building where the facade will be concrete panels with
minimum window openings. The main lobby will be a focal point of the building
and act as a central security/control point. The finishes planned for the main
entrance are ceramic tile with a walk off mat insert in the vestibules. The
lobby will have a pass-through counter/window separating Lobby and adjacent
Security Room. A separate generator building will be provided.
Add alternates shall be obtained from all major equipment suppliers and
subcontractors for future equipment attic stock and extended equipment
maintenance/warranties. These alternatives will be presented to Progressive
during project implementation for approval/funding or rejection.
