4. CITY OF NASHUA REPRESENTATIVE The City of Nashua may designate a City of Nashua
representative for this contract. If designated, all notices, project materials, requests by General
Contractor, and any other communication about the contract shall be addressed or be delivered to
the City of Nashua Representative.
5. CHANGES TO SCOPE OF WORK The City of Nashua may, at any time, by written order, make
changes to the general scope, character, or cost of this contract and in the services or work to be
performed, either increasing or decreasing the scope, character, or cost of General Contractor's
performance under the contract. General Contractor shall provide to the City of Nashua within
10 calendar days, a written proposal for accomplishing the change. The proposal for a change
shall provide enough detail, including personnel hours for each sub-task and cost breakdowns of
tasks, for the City of Nashua to be able to adequately analyze the proposal. The City of Nashua
will then determine in writing if General Contractor should proceed with any or all of the
proposed change. If the change causes an increase or a decrease in General Contractor's cost or
time required for performance of the contract as a whole, an equitable adjustment shall be
made and the contract accordingly modified in writing. Any claim of General Contractor for
adjustment under this clause shall be asserted in writing within 30 days of the date the City of
Nashua notified General Contractor of the change.
When General Contractor seeks changes, General Contractor shall, before any work commences,
estimate their effect on the cost of the contract and on its schedule and notify the City of
Nashua in writing of the estimate. The proposal for a change shall provide enough detail,
including personnel hours for each sub-task and cost breakdowns of tasks, for the City of Nashua
to be able to adequately analyze the proposal. The City of Nashua will then determine in writing
if General Contractor should proceed with any or all of the proposed change.
Except as provided in this paragraph, General Contractor shall implement no change unless the
City of Nashua in writing approves the change. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, the
provisions of this contract shall apply to all changes. The City of Nashua may provide verbal
approval of a change when the City of Nashua, in its sole discretion, determines that time is
critical or public health and safety are of concern. Any verbal approval shall be confirmed in
writing as soon as practicable. Any change undertaken without prior City of Nashua approval
shall not be compensated and is, at the City of Nashua's election, sufficient reason for contract
termination.
6. CITY OF NASHUA COOPERATION The City of Nashua agrees that its personnel will cooperate
with General Contractor in the performance of its work under this contract and that such personnel
will be available to General Contractor for consultation at reasonable times and after being given
sufficient advance notice that will prevent conflict with their other responsibilities. The City of
Nashua also agrees to provide General Contractor with access to City of Nashua records in a
reasonable time and manner and to schedule items that require action by the Board of Public
Works and Finance Committee in a timely manner. The City of Nashua and General Contractor
also agree to attend all meetings called by the City of Nashua or General Contractor to discuss
the work under the Contract, and that General Contractor may elect to conduct and record such
meetings and shail later distribute prepared minutes of the meeting to the City of Nashua.

discrepancies, and ambiguities to the attention of the City of Nashua in writing, and has
concluded that the City of Nashua's resolution of each matter is satisfactory to General
