§ 2.3 OWNER'S RIGHT TO STOP THE WORK
If the Contractor fails to correct Work that is not in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents as
required by Section 12.2 or repeatedly fails to carry out Work in accordance with the Contract Documents, the Owner
may issue a written order to the Contractor to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order has
been eliminated; however, the right of the Owner to stop the Work shall not give rise to a duty on the part of the Owner
to exercise this right for the benefit of the Contractor or any other person or entity, except to the extent required by
Section 6.1.3.
§ 2.4 OWNER'S RIGHT TO CARRY OUT THE WORK
If the Contractor defaults or neglects to carry out the Work in accordance with the Contract Documents and fails
within a ten-day period after receipt of written notice from the Owner to commence and continue correction of such
default or neglect with diligence and promptness, the Owner may, without prejudice to other remedies the Owner may
have, correct such deficiencies. In such case an appropriate Change Order shall be issued deducting from payments
then or thereafter due the Contractor the reasonable cost of correcting such deficiencies, including Owner’s expenses
and compensation for the Architect’s additional services made necessary by such default, neglect or failure. If
payments then or thereafter due the Contractor are not sufficient to cover such amounts, the Contractor shall promptly
pay the difference to the Owner.
