4.03 Liquidated Damages

A. CONTRACTOR and OWNER recognize that time is of the essence of this Agreement and that
OWNER will suffer financial loss if the Work is not completed within the times specified in paragraph 4.02 above, plus
any extensions thereof allowed in accordance with Article 12 of the General Conditions. The parties 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 any such proof, OWNER and
CONTRACTOR agree that as liquidated damages for delay (but not as a penalty) CONTRACTOR shall pay OWNER
ONE HUNDRED dollars ($100) for each calendar day that expires after the time specified in paragraph 4.02 for
Substantial Completion until the Work is substantially complete. After Substantial Completion, if CONTRACTOR
shall neglect, refuse or fail to complete the remaining Work within the time specified in paragraph 4.02 for completion
and readiness for final payment or any proper extension thereof granted by OWNER, CONTRACTOR shall pay
OWNER TWO HUNDRED dollars ($200) for calendar cach day that expires after the time specified in paragraph
4.02 for completion and readiness for final payment until the Work is completed and ready for final payment.

B. In the event that the CONTRACTOR fails to pay OWNER the specified liquidated damages amount
within thirty (30) days of CONTRACTOR's being notified of said damages, OWNER may deduct the amount of the
assessed liquidated damages from the final payment or retention withheld pursuant to Article 14 of the General
Conditions.

ARTICLE 5 - CONTRACT PRICE

5.01 Subject to additions and deductions by Change Order, the OWNER shall pay CONTRACTOR, in accordance
with the Contract Documents, the Contract Sum of:

Three Hundred Twenty-Seven Thousand Four Hundred Twenty-Three and 94/100 Dollars
($ 327,423.94 )

The Contract Sum shall include all items and services necessary for the proper execution and completion of the Work
determined below:

A. for all Unit Price Work, an amount equal to the sum of the established Unit Price for each separately
identified item of Unit Price Work times the estimated quantity of that
1tem, as indicated in the attached Bid Schedule;

B. as provided in paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions estimated quantities are not guaranteed, and
determinations of actual quantities and classification are to be made by ENGINEER as provided in paragraph 9.08 of
the General Conditions. Unit prices have been computed as provided in paragraph 11.03 of the General Conditions.

ARTICLE 6 - PAYMENT PROCEDURES
6.01 Submittal and Processing of Payments

A. CONTRACTOR shall submit Applications for Payment in accordance with Article 14 of the General
Conditions. Applications for Payment will be processed by ENGINEER as provided in the General Conditions.

B. CONTRACTOR shall submit Applications for Payment under this agreement directly to:

City of Nashua

Attn: Accounts Payable
PO Box 2019

Nashua, NH 03061-2019
Atten: Todd Welch

AG -2o0f7

To facilitate the proper and timely payment of applications, the City of Nashua requires that all invoices contain
a valid PURCHASE ORDER NUMBER.

6.02 Progress Payments; Retainage

A. Progress Payments. The OWNER will once each month make a progress payment to the
CONTRACTOR on the basis of an estimate of the total amount of work done to the time of the estimate and its value as
prepared by the CONTRACTOR and approved by the ENGINEER. All such payments will be measured by the
schedule of values established in paragraph 2.07.A of the General Conditions (and in the case of Unit Price Work based
on the number of units completed) or, in the event there is no schedule of values, as provided in the General
Requirements.

B. Retainage. The OWNER will retain a portion of the progress payment, each month, in accordance
with the following procedures:

1. The OWNER will establish an escrow account in the bank of the OWNER’S choosing.
The account will be established such that interest on the principal will be paid to the
CONTRACTOR. The principal will be the accumulated retainage paid into the account by
the OWNER. The principal will be held by the bank, available only to the OWNER, until
termination of the contract.

2. Until the work is 50% complete, as determined by the ENGINEER, retainage shall be 10% of
the monthly payments claimed. The computed amount of retainage will be deposited in the
escrow account established above.

3. After the work is 50% complete, and provided the CONTRACTOR has satisfied the
ENGINEER in quality and timeliness of the work, and provided further that there is no
specific cause for withholding additional retainage no further amount will be withheld. The
escrow account will remain at the same balance throughout the remainder of the project.

6.03 Final Payment

A. Upon final completion and acceptance of the Work in accordance with paragraph 14.07 of the General
Conditions, OWNER shall hold 2% retainage during the 1 (one) year warranty period and release it only after the
project has been accepted.
