F. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the damage or destruction of property of any character resulting from
neglect, misconduct, or omission in its manner or method of execution or the non-execution of the work, or caused by
defective work or the use of unsatisfactory materials, and such responsibility shall not be released until the work shall
have been completed and accepted and the requirements of the Construction Specifications complied with.

G. Whenever public or private property is so damaged or destroyed, the CONTRACTOR shall at its own expense,
restore such property to a condition equal to that existing before such damage or injury was done by repairing,
rebuilding, or replacing it as may be directed, or the CONTRACTOR shall otherwise make good such damage or
destruction in an acceptable manner. If the CONTRACTOR fails to do so, the ENGINEER may, after giving the
CONTRACTOR notice in writing, proceed to repair, rebuild, or otherwise restore such property as may be deemed
necessary, and the cost thereof shall be deducted from any compensation due, or which may become due, the
CONTRACTOR under its Contract.

4.02 Subsurface and Physical Conditions
A. Reports and Drawings:

1. Those reports of explorations and tests of subsurface conditions at or contiguous to the Site that ENGINEER
has used in preparing the Contract Documents; and

2. Those drawings of physical conditions in or relating to existing surface or subsurface structures at or contiguous
to the Site (except Underground Facilities) that ENGINEER has used in preparing the Contract Documents.

B. Limited Reliance by CONTRACTOR on Technical Data Authorized:

CONTRACTOR may rely upon the general accuracy of the “technical data” contained in such reports and drawings,
but such reports and drawings are not Contract Documents. Such “technical data” is identified in the Supplementary
Conditions. Except for such reliance on such “technical data,” CONTRACTOR may not rely upon or make any Claim
against OWNER, ENGINEER, or any of ENGINEER’s Consultants with respect to:

1. The completeness of such reports and drawings for CONTRACTOR’s purposes, including, but not limited to,
any aspects of the means, methods, techniques, sequences, and procedures of construction to be employed by
CONTRACTOR, and safety precautions and programs incident thereto; or

2. Other data, interpretations, opinions, and information contained in such reports or shown or indicated in such
drawings; or

3. Any CONTRACTOR interpretation of or conclusion drawn from any “technical data” or any such other data,
interpretations, opinions, or information.

hazardous materials, as defined in federal, state and local regulations, he/she shall immediately notify the Engineer.
No further disturbance of the area shall occur until the Engineer has collected and analyzed a representative sample of
the suspected material. The area shall be cordoned off and covered with 6-mil polyethylene sheeting and await further
directions from the Engineer.

4.03 Differing Subsurface or Physical Conditions
A. Notice: If CONTRACTOR believes that any subsurface or physical conditions at or contiguous to the Site that is

uncovered or revealed either:

GC - 12 of 54

1. Is of such a nature as to establish that any “technical data” on which CONTRACTOR is entitled to rely as
provided in paragraph 4.02 is materially inaccurate; or

2. Is of such a nature as to require a change in the Contract Documents; or
3. Differs materially from that shown or indicated in the Contract Documents; or

4. Is of an unusual nature, and differs materially from conditions ordinarily encountered and generally recognized
as inherent in work of the character provided for in the Contract Documents; then CONTRACTOR shall, promptly
after becoming aware thereof and before further disturbing the subsurface or physical conditions or performing
any Work in connection therewith (except in an emergency as required by paragraph 6.16.A), notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing about such condition. CONTRACTOR shall not further disturb such condition or perform
any Work in connection therewith (except as aforesaid) until receipt of written order to do so.

B. ENGINEER’s Review: After receipt of written notice as required by paragraph 4.03.A, ENGINEER will
promptly review the pertinent condition, determine the necessity of OWNER’s obtaining additional exploration or
tests with respect thereto, and advise OWNER in writing (with a copy to CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER’S findings
and conclusions.

C. Possible Price and Times Adjustments

1. The Contract Price or the Contract Times, or both, will be equitably adjusted to the extent that the existence of
such differing subsurface or physical condition causes an increase or decrease in CONTRACTOR’s cost of, or
time required for, performance of the Work; subject, however, to the following:

a. Such condition must meet any one or more of the categories described in paragraph 4.03.A; and

b. With respect to Work that is paid for on a Unit Price Basis, any adjustment in Contract Price will be
subject to the provisions of paragraphs 9.08 and 11.03.

2.CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to any adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Times if:

a. CONTRACTOR knew of the existence of such conditions at the time CONTRACTOR made a final
commitment to OWNER in respect of Contract Price and Contract Times by the submission of a Bid or
becoming bound under a negotiated contract: or

b. The existence of such condition could reasonably have been discovered or revealed as a result of any
examination, investigation, exploration, test, or study of the Site and Contiguous areas required by the Bidding
Requirements or Contract Documents to be conducted by or for CONTRACTOR prior to CONTRACTOR’s
making such final commitment; or

c. CONTRACTOR failed to give the written notice within the time and as required by paragraph 4.03.A.

3. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of any
adjustment in the Contract Price or Contract Times, or both, a Claim may be made therefore as provided in
paragraph 10.05. However, OWNER, ENGINEER, and ENGINEER’s Consultants shall not be liable to
CONTRACTOR for any claims, costs, losses, or damages (including but not limited to all fees and charges of
engineers, architects, attorneys, and other professionals and all court or arbitration or other dispute resolution
costs) sustained by CONTRACTOR on or in connection with any other project or anticipated project.

any Work in connection therewith (except in an emergency as required by paragraph 6.16.A). identify the
OWNER of such Underground Facility and give written notice to that OWNER and to OWNER and ENGINEER.
ENGINEER will promptly review the Underground Facility and determine the extent, if any, to which a change is
required in the Contract Documents to reflect and document the consequences of the existence or location of the
Underground Facility. During such time, CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for the safety and protection of
such Underground Facility.

2. If ENGINEER concludes that a change in the Contract Documents is required, a Change Order will be issued to
reflect and document such consequences. An equitable adjustment shall be made in the Contract Price or Contract
Times, or both, to the extent that they are attributable to the existence or location of any Underground Facility that
was not shown or indicated or not shown or indicated with reasonable accuracy in the Contract Documents and
that CONTRACTOR did not know of and could not reasonably have been expected to be aware of or to have
anticipated. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR are unable to agree on entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if
any, of any such adjustment in Contract Price or Contract Times, OWNER or CONTRACTOR may make a Claim
therefore as provided in paragraph 10.05.

until after OWNER has obtained any required permits related thereto and delivered to CONTRACTOR written notice:
(i) specifying that such condition and any affected area is or has been rendered safe for the resumption of Work; or (11)
specifying any special conditions under which such Work may be resumed safely. If OWNER and CONTRACTOR
cannot agree as to entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of any adjustment in Contract Price or Contract
Times, or both, as a result of such Work stoppage or such special conditions under which Work is agreed to be
resumed by CONTRACTOR, either party may make a Claim therefore as provided in paragraph 10.05.

F. If after receipt of such written a notice CONTRACTOR does not agree to resume such Work based on a
reasonable belief it is unsafe, or does not agree to resume such Work under such special conditions, then OWNER
may order the portion of the Work that is in the area affected by such condition to be deleted from the Work. If
OWNER and CONTRACTOR cannot agree as to entitlement to or on the amount or extent, if any, of an adjustment in
Contract Price or Contract Times as a result of deleting such portion of the Work, then either party may make a Claim
therefore as provided in paragraph 10.05. OWNER may have such deleted portion of the Work performed by
OWNER’S own forces or others in accordance with Article 7.

G. To the fullest extent permitted by Laws and Regulations, CONTRACTOR shall indemnify and hold harmless

Re: Landscaping for the Riverfront in the amount not to exceed $180,000 funded from 54280 Building/Grounds
Maintenance/Riverfront TIF Fund

MOTION BY ALDERMAN COMEAU TO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE AND APPROVE THE MULTI-YEAR CONTRACT
WITH DOTY LANDSCAPING RELATED TO THE NASHUA DOWNTOWN RIVERFRONT IMPLEMENTAION PROJECT

DEVELOPMENT; FUND: 54280

BUILDING/GROUNDS/MAINTENANCE/RIVERFRONT TIF FUND

ON THE QUESTION

Mayor Donchess

| think Mr. Cummings is here.

Tim Cummings, Economic Development Director

Yes, thank you Mr. Mayor. For the record, Tim Cummings, Director of Economic Development.

This is essentially a maintenance landscaping contract to maintain the riverfront area. We issued an RFP last year. We
are bringing Doty Group under contract for a multi-year, three-year contract. So this will need full Board of Aldermen
approval. It’s essentially a contract for about $30,000 a month and it will be from the Veteran’s Memorial Parkway Bridge
all the way to the PanAm Pedestrian Bridge, the abutting riverfront along the area for essentially eight hours of work a
week, one day if you will, of approximately a five man crew to maintain the area and then two clean-ups - a spring and a
fall clean-up. In addition to that, there’s additional services at a charge on an hourly rate for things like graffiti removal or
other things that may be necessary along the way so we maintain the riverfront area here in Nashua. This was projected
to be a little less than $200,000. We’ve come in under that. This is all covered under the TIF funds that we have set
aside for this project.

Mayor Donchess

Comments? Questions?

Alderman Comeau

Yes, thank you. Director Cummings so if | understand this correctly, this is not a one-time development of the parks in the
area. This is an ongoing maintenance and upkeep of the riverfront itself?

Correct.
