CHANGES AND FORCE MAJEIJRE

6.1 Change Orders.

No Change shall be made except in accordance with a duly issued Change Order executed in writing by Owner and Contractor, except as otherwise provided for in this Article VI herein. Change Orders shall contain full particulars of the Changes, and any adjustments of the Contract Price, Project Schedule, Guaranteed Completion Date or Performance Guarantees, and any other modification to this Agreement.

6.2 Owner Directed Changes.

Owner, at any time, by written notice to Contractor, may direct Changes in the Work or Equipment, consisting of additions, deletions, modifications, substitutions or other Changes within the general scope of this Agreement.

6.3 Contractor Changes.

Contractor may and in certain circumstances must, by written notice, request a Change. Upon receipt of Contractor’s request and any supporting documentation reasonably requested by Owner, then within fifteen (15) Business Days Owner will notify Contractor of its acceptance or rejection of such request. Upon Owner’s approval of such request and agreement on the terms of an associated Change Order, Contractor may proceed with the implementation of such Change. If Owner elects not to proceed with any Change requested by Contractor resulting from a Change in Law, the discovery of Hazardous Substances or any article of value or antiquity or of archaeological or geotechnical interest, or any unforeseen or varying Site or other conditions, or event of Force Majeure, Owner shall provide written notification to Contractor to stop work; otherwise Contractor shall be entitled to continue with the work as changed and pending agreement on the changes to price, schedule and other effected provisions herein, Contractor shall be compensated on the reimbursable basis in Exhibit F. If such change, discovery, condition, event or amendment increases Contractor’s cost or liabilities, or materially impacts Contractor’s ability to continue its performance hereunder, Contractor as an alternative may suspend its performance hereunder or terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 16.3 hereof. Contractor shall have no liability for the consequences of such election not to proceed with such Change if such option is exercised in good faith.

6.4 Definition of Change.

A “Change” shall mean a change in the Scope of Work, Specifications, Performance Guarantees, Contract Price, Guaranteed Completion Dates, or Project Schedule, as applicable or any other import to the work or schedule. A Change may result from Owner directed changes pursuant to Section 6.2, Contractor requested changes pursuant to Section 6.3, Owner, Governmental Authority or third party Delay, Force Majeure,


DRAFT AGREEMENT		17

Change in Law, the discovery of Hazardous Substances or any article of value or antiquity or of archaeological or geotechnical interest, the discovery of any unforeseen or varying Site condition, any event or condition outside of Contractor’s reasonable control, or suspension of the Work pursuant to Section 16.4.

6.5 Adjustments to Agreement.

Should any Change cause an increase or decrease in the cost of or time required for performance of this Agreement by Contractor or otherwise affect any provision of this Agreement, Contractor shall be entitled to an adjustment to the Contract Price, Project Schedule, Performance Guarantees, Guaranteed Completion Dates, Milestone Payment Schedule or any other provisions of this Agreement which are affected by such Change. When Contractor is notified of or becomes aware of a Change, Contractor shall promptly prepare and submit to Owner an estimate of the increase or decrease, if any, in the cost and time required to complete the Work, together with an explanation of the basis for such estimate, and shall inform Owner whether, in Contractor’s opinion, such Change should result in an adjustment pursuant to this Agreement, specifying the relevant provision of this Agreement. The price of any Work required or deleted by a Change shall be either a lump-sum fixed price mutually agreed to by the parties or a cost plus price calculated on the basis of Exhibit F, unless the parties agree otherwise. The explanation of the basis for a cost Change shall include, as appropriate, relevant cost information regarding the portion of the original cost estimate that is affected by the Change, vendor pricing for the cost of Equipment added by the Change, and estimated quantities of Equipment, other materials and labor added by the Change. If Contractor and Owner fail to agree on Contractor’s entitlement to an adjustment or the nature of such adjustment, then the provisions of Article XIX shall be invoked to resolve the dispute. Pending the resolution of such dispute, Contractor shall be reimbursed for such Change on the basis of Exhibit F and when the dispute is resolved said reimbursed amount shall be credited against said resolved amount. If Owner fails to agree to a Contractor request for an extension of a Guaranteed Completion Date to which Contractor is ultimately determined to be entitled, then Contractor is entitled to a Change for any increased cost plus its markups resulting from extraordinary efforts to meet the Guaranteed Completion Date during resolution of the dispute.

6.6 Performance of Changes.

In the event the parties are unable to agree on the adjustments applicable to a Change or acceleration in schedule, then Contractor shall, if directed by Owner, nevertheless proceed to perform such Change or accelerate the schedule so long as Contractor is paid the costs and charges incurred in performing such Change or accelerating the schedule in accordance with Exhibit F. Contractor shall not pursuant to this Section 6.6, be required to perform any Change to the Work directed by Owner that would impair Contractor’s ability to meet the Guaranteed Completion Date, or Performance Guarantees without an agreed upon adjustment to the Project Schedule or Guaranteed Completion Date.

6.7 Other Provisions Unaffected,

Except to the extent a Change specifically amends one or more provisions hereof, provisions of this Agreement shall apply to Changes, and no Change shall be implied as a result of any other Change.

Contractor expressly warrants and represents that it shall indemnify, defend and save Owner, Lender and each of their respective affiliates, successors, assigns, officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against any claims whatsoever arising from or in any manner related to an infringement of patents or the improper use of other proprietary rights which may occur in connection with Contractor’s or any Subcontractor’s performance of the Work pursuant to this Agreement and the ownership or use of the Facility or any part thereof provided by Contractor or any Subcontractor (including, without limitation, the use of any such part in conjunction with, or as modified, supplemented or otherwise affected by, any Equipment); provided that Contractor shall have no indemnity obligations hereunder with respect to any claim arising out of (i) use of Equipment in combination with devices or products not supplied by Contractor or any of their respective Subcontractors, (ii) use of Equipment in an application or environment for which they were not designed.
