    .1 Take that portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable to completed Work as determined by multiplying the percentage completion of each portion of the Work by the share of the Contract Sum allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values, less retainage of Ten percent ( 10 %) on the Work, other than services provided by design professionals and other consultants retained directly by the Design-Builder. Pending final determination of cost to the Owner of Changes in the Work, amounts not in dispute shall be included as provided in Section A.7.3.8 of Exhibit A, Terms and Conditions;  
    .2
Add that portion of the Contract Sum properly allocable to materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the completed construction (or, if approved in advance by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing), less retainage of Five percent ( 5 %);
 
    .3
Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by the Owner; and
 
    .4
Subtract amounts, if any, for which the Owner has withheld payment from or nullified an Application for Payment as provided in Section A.9.5 of Exhibit A, Terms and Conditions.
 
           
  § 5.2.3 The progress payment amount determined in accordance with Section 5.2.2 shall be further modified under the following circumstances:

§ A.3.17.3 In claims against any person or entity indemnified under this Section A.3.17 by an employee of the Owner, Design-Builder; the Architect, a Contractor, A Subcontractor, or anyone directly or indirectly employed by them or anyone for whose acts they may be liable, the indemnification obligation under Section A.3.17.1 shall not be limited by a limitation on amount or type of damages, compensation, or benefits payable by or for the Owner, Design-Builder, the Architect, or a Contractor or a Subcontractor under worker’s compensation acts, disability benefit acts or other employee benefit acts.
 
     
 
ARTICLE A.4     DISPUTE RESOLUTION
 
 
§ A.4.1 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES
 
 
§ A.4.1.1 Definition. A Claim is a demand or assertion by one of the parties seeking, as a matter of right, adjustment or interpretation of Design-Build Contract terms, payment of money, extension of time or other relief with respect to the terms of the Design-Build Contract. The term “Claim” also includes other disputes and matters in question between the Owner and Design-Builder arising out of or relating to the Design-Build Contract. Claims must be initiated by written notice. The responsibility to substantiate Claims shall rest with the party making the Claim.
 
     
 
§ A.4.1.2 Time Limits on Claims. Claims by either party must be initiated within 21 days after occurrence of the event giving rise to such Claim or within 21 days after the claimant first recognizes the condition giving rise to the Claim, whichever is later. Claims must be initiated by written notice to the other party.
 
     
 
§ A.4.1.3 Continuing Performance. Pending final resolution of a Claim, except as otherwise agreed in writing or as provided in Section A.9.7.1 and Article A.14, the Design-Builder shall proceed diligently with performance of the Design-Build Contract and the Owner shall continue to make payments in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.4.1.4 Claims for Concealed or Unknown Conditions. If conditions are encountered at the site which are (1) subsurface or otherwise concealed physical conditions which differ materially from those indicated in the Design-Build Documents or (2) unknown physical conditions of an unusual nature which differ materially from those ordinarily found to exist and generally recognized as inherent in construction activities of the character provided for in the Design-Build Documents, then the observing party shall give notice to the other party promptly before conditions are disturbed and in no event later than 21 days after first observance of the conditions. The Owner shall promptly investigate such conditions and, if they differ materially and cause an increase or decrease in the Design-Builder’s cost of, or time required for, performance of any part of the Work, shall negotiate with the Design-Builder an equitable adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, or both. If the Owner determines that the conditions at the site are not materially different from those indicated in the Design-Build Documents and that no change in the terms of the Design-Build Contract is justified, the Owner shall so notify the Design-Builder in writing, stating the reasons. Claims by the Design-Builder in opposition to such determination must be made within 21 days after the Owner has given notice of the decision. If the conditions encountered are materially different, the Contract Sum and Contract Time shall be equitably adjusted, but if the Owner and Design-Builder cannot agree on an adjustment in the Contract Sum or Contract Time, the adjustment shall proceed pursuant to Section A.4.2.

§ A.7.3.5 A Construction Change Directive signed by the Design-Builder indicates the agreement of the Design-Builder therewith, including adjustment in Contract Sum and Contract Time or the method for determining them. Such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded as a Change Order.
 
         
 
§ A.7.3.6 If the Design-Builder does not respond promptly or disagrees with the method for adjustment in the Contract Sum, the method and the adjustment shall be determined by the Owner on the basis of reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the Work attributable to the change, including, in case of an increase in the Contract Sum, a reasonable allowance for overhead and profit. In such case, and also under Section A.7.3.3.3, the Design-Builder shall keep and present, in such form as the Owner may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data. Unless otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents, costs for the purposes of this Section A.7.3.6 shall be limited to the following:
 
   
.1
additional costs of professional services;
 
   
.2

.6
additional costs of supervision and field office personnel directly attributable to the change.
 
         
 
§ A.7.3.7 The amount of credit to be allowed by the Design-Builder to the Owner for a deletion or change that results in a net decrease in the Contract Sum shall be actual net cost. When both additions and credits covering related Work or substitutions are involved in a change, the allowance for General Conditions, overhead and profit of Ten Percent (10%) shall be figured on the basis of net increase or decrease, if any, with respect to that change.
 
         
 
§ A.7.3.8 Pending final determination of the total cost of a Construction Change Directive to the Owner, amounts not in dispute for such changes in the Work shall be included in Applications for Payment accompanied by a Change Order indicating the parties’ agreement with part or all of such costs. For any portion of such cost that remains in dispute, the Owner shall make an interim determination for purposes of monthly payment for those costs. That determination of cost shall adjust the Contract Sum on the same basis as a Change Order, subject to the right of the Design-Builder to disagree and assert a Claim in accordance with Article A.4.
 
         
 
§ A.7.3.9 When the Owner and Design-Builder reach agreement concerning the adjustments in the Contract Sum and Contract Time, or otherwise reach agreement upon the adjustments, such agreement shall be effective immediately and shall be recorded by preparation and execution of an appropriate Change Order.

§ A.8.1.4 The term “day” as used in the Design-Build Documents shall mean calendar day unless otherwise specifically defined.
 
         
 
§ A.8.2 PROGRESS AND COMPLETION
 
 
§ A.8.2.1 Time limits stated in the Design-Build Documents are of the essence of the Design-Build Contract. By executing the Design-Build Contract, the Design-Builder confirms that the Contract Time is a reasonable period for performing the Work.
 
         
 
§ A.8.2.2 The Design-Builder shall not knowingly, except by agreement or instruction of the Owner in writing, prematurely commence construction operations on the site or elsewhere prior to the effective date of insurance required by Article A.11 to be furnished by the Design-Builder and Owner. The date of commencement of the Work shall not be changed by the effective date of such insurance. Unless the date of commencement is established by the Design-Build Documents or a notice to proceed given by the Owner, the Design-Builder shall notify the Owner in writing not less than five days or other agreed period before commencing the Work to permit the timely filing of mortgages, mechanic’s liens and other security interests.
 
         
 
§ A.8.2.3 The Design-Builder shall proceed expeditiously with adequate forces and shall achieve Substantial Completion within the Contract Time.
 
         
 
§ A.8.3 DELAYS AND EXTENSIONS OF TIME
 
 
§ A.8.3.1 If the Design-Builder is delayed at any time in the commencement or progress of the Work by an act or neglect of the Owner or of a separate contractor employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Design-Builder’s control, or by delay authorized by the Owner pending resolution of disputes pursuant to the Design-Build Documents, or by other causes which the Owner determines may justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as the Owner and Design-Builder may mutually -determine.
 
         
 
§ A.8.3.2 Claims relating to time shall be made in accordance with applicable provisions of Section A.4.1.7.

ARTICLE A.9      PAYMENTS AND COMPLETION
 
 
§ A.9.1 CONTRACT SUM
 
 
§ A.9.1.1 The Contract Sum is stated in the Design-Build Documents and, including authorized adjustments, is the total amount payable by the Owner to the Design-Builder for performance of the Work under the Design-Build Documents.
 
         
 
§ A.9.2 SCHEDULE OF VALUES
 
 
§ A.9.2.1 Before the first Application for Payment, where the Contract Sum is based upon a Stipulated Sum the Design-Builder shall submit to the Owner an initial schedule of values allocated to various portions of the Work prepared in such form and supported by such data to substantiate its accuracy as the Owner may require. This schedule, unless objected to by the Owner, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Design-Builder’s Applications for Payment. The schedule of values may be updated periodically to reflect changes in the allocation of the Contract Sum.

§ A.9.3.1.2 Such applications may not include requests for payment for portions of the Work for which the Design-Builder does not intend to pay to a Contractor or material supplier or other parties providing services for the Design-Builder, unless such Work has been performed by others whom the Design-Builder intends to pay.
 
         
 
§ A.9.3.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Design-Build Documents, payments shall be made on account of materials and equipment delivered and suitably stored at the site for subsequent incorporation in the Work. If approved in advance by the Owner, payment may similarly be made for materials and equipment suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in writing. Payment for materials and equipment stored on or off the site shall be conditioned upon compliance by the Design-Builder with procedures satisfactory to the Owner to establish the Owner’s title to such materials and equipment or otherwise protect the Owner’s interest and shall include the costs of applicable insurance, storage and transportation to the site for such materials and equipment stored off the site.
 
         
 
§ A.9.3.3 The Design-Builder warrants that title to all Work other than Instruments of Service covered by an Application for Payment will pass to the Owner no later than the time of payment. The Design-Builder further warrants that, upon submittal of an Application for Payment, all Work for which Certificates for Payment have been previously issued and payments received from the Owner shall, to the best of the Design-Builder’s knowledge, information and belief, be free and clear of liens, Claims, security interests or encumbrances in favor of the Design-Builder. Contractors, Subcontractors, material suppliers, or other persons or entities making a claim by reason of having provided labor, materials and equipment relating to the Work. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Design-Build Contractor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any liens of subcontractors, vendors or suppliers, whether in the nature of mechanics liens or material liens or otherwise, to be placed upon or imposed on the property of the Owner. Within Ten (10) Days of Owner written notice to Design-Build Contractor of the existence of such lien, Design-Build Contractor shall cause the lien to be removed, discharged, insured over or bonded over or otherwise vacated. In the event Design-Build Contractor fails to so act within the allowed time, Owner may take any action necessary to remove, discharge, or vacate the lien, the lien, including payment of the full amount claimed to be owed, and charge such amount and any related costs to the Design-Build Contractor as a deduction from the Contract Sum.
 
         
 
§ A.9.4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF APPLICATION FOR PAYMENT
 
 
§ A.9.4.1 The Owner shall, within seven days after receipt of the Design-Builder’s Application for Payment, issue to the Design-Builder a written acknowledgement of receipt of the Design-Builder’s Application for Payment indicating the amount the Owner has determined to be properly due and, if applicable, the reasons for withholding payment in whole or in part.
 
         
 
§ A.9.5 DECISIONS TO WITHHOLD PAYMENT
 
 
§ A.9.5.1 The Owner may withhold a payment in whole or in part to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Owner due to the Owner’s determination that the Work has not progressed to the point indicated in the Application for Payment or that the quality of Work is not in accordance with the Design-Build Documents. The Owner may also withhold a payment or, because of subsequently discovered evidence, may nullify the whole or a part of an Application for Payment previously issued to such extent as may be necessary to protect the Owner from loss for which the Design-Builder is responsible, including loss resulting from acts and omissions, because of the following:
 
   
.1
defective Work not remedied;
 
   
.2
third-party claims filed or reasonable evidence indicating probable filing of such claims unless security acceptable to the Owner is provided by the Design-Builder;
 
   
.3
failure of the Design-Builder to make payments properly to Contractors or for design services labor, materials or equipment;
 
   
.4
reasonable evidence that the Work cannot be completed for the unpaid balance of the Contract Sum;
 
   
.5
damage to the Owner or a separate contractor;
 
   
.6
reasonable evidence that the Work will not be completed within the Contract Time and that the unpaid balance would not be adequate to cover actual or liquidated damages for the anticipated delay; or
 
   
.7
persistent failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.
 
         
 
§ A.9.5.2 When the above reasons for withholding payment are removed, payment will be made for amounts previously withheld.

§ A.9.6 PROGRESS PAYMENTS
 
 
§ A.9.6.1 After the Owner has issued a written acknowledgement of receipt of the Design-Builder’s Application for Payment, the Owner shall make payment of the amount, in the manner and within the time provided in the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.2 The Design-Builder shall promptly pay the Architect, each design professional and other consultants retained directly by the Design-Builder, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the Design-Builder on account of each such party’s respective portion of the Work, the amount to which each such party is entitled.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.3 The Design-Builder shall promptly pay each Contractor, upon receipt of payment from the Owner, out of the amount paid to the Design-Builder on account of such Contractor’s portion of the Work, the amount to which said Contractor is entitled, reflecting percentages actually retained from payments to the Design-Builder on account of the Contractor’s portion of the Work. The Design-Builder shall, by appropriate agreement with each Contractor, require each Contractor to make payments to Subcontractors in a similar manner.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.4 The Owner shall have no obligation to pay or to see to the payment of money to a Contractor except as may otherwise be required by law.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.5 Payment to material suppliers shall be treated in a manner similar to that provided in Sections A.9.6.3 and A.9.6.4.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.6 A progress payment, or partial or entire use or occupancy of the Project by the Owner, shall not constitute acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.9.6.7 Unless the Design-Builder provides the Owner with a payment bond in the full penal sum of the Contract Sum, payments received by the Design-Builder for Work properly performed by Contractors and suppliers shall be held by the Design-Builder for those Contractors or suppliers who performed Work or furnished materials, or both, under contract with the Design-Builder for which payment was made by the Owner. Nothing contained herein shall require money to be placed in a separate account and not be commingled with money of the Design-Builder, shall create any fiduciary liability or tort liability on the part of the Design-Builder for breach of trust or shall entitle any person or entity to an award of punitive damages against the Design-Builder for breach of the requirements of this provision.
 
     
 
§ A.9.7 FAILURE OF PAYMENT
 
 
§ A.9.7.1 If for reasons other than those enumerated in Section A.9.5.1, the Owner does not issue a payment within the time period required by Section 5.1.3 of the Agreement, then the Design-Builder may, upon seven additional days’ written notice to the Owner, stop the Work until payment of the amount owing has been received. The Contract Time shall be extended appropriately and the Contract Sum shall be increased by the amount of the Design-Builder’s reasonable costs of shutdown, delay and start-up, plus interest as provided for in the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.9.8 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
 
 
§ A.9.8.1 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Design-Build Documents so that the Owner can occupy or use the Work or a portion thereof for its intended use.
 
     
 
§ A.9.8.2 When the Design-Builder considers that the Work, or a portion thereof which the Owner agrees to accept separately, is substantially complete, the Design-Builder shall prepare and submit to the Owner a comprehensive list of items to be completed or corrected prior to final payment. Failure to include an item on such list does not alter the responsibility of the Design-Builder to complete all Work in accordance with the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.9.8.3 Upon receipt of the Design-Builder’s list, the Owner shall make an inspection to determine whether the Work or designated portion thereof is substantially complete. If the Owner’s inspection discloses any item, whether or not included on the Design-Builder’s list, which is not substantially complete, the Design-Builder shall complete or correct such item. In such case, the Design-Builder shall then submit a request for another inspection by the Owner to determine whether the Design-Builder’s Work is substantially complete.

§ A.9.9 PARTIAL OCCUPANCY OR USE
 
 
§ A.9.9.1 The Owner may occupy or use any completed or partially completed portion of the Work at any stage when such portion is designated by separate agreement with the Design-Builder, provided such occupancy or use is consented to by the insurer, if so required by the insurer, and authorized by public authorities having jurisdiction over the Work Such partial occupancy or use may commence whether or not the portion is substantially complete, provided the Owner and Design-Builder have accepted in writing the responsibilities assigned to each of them for payments, retainage, if any, security, maintenance, heat, utilities, damage to the Work and insurance, and have agreed in writing concerning the period for completion or correction of the Work and commencement of warranties required by the Design-Build Documents. When the Design-Builder considers a portion substantially complete, the Design-Builder shall prepare and submit a list to the Owner as provided under Section A.9.8.2. Consent of the Design-Builder to partial occupancy or use shall not be unreasonably withheld. The stage of the progress of the Work shall be determined by written agreement between the Owner and Design-Builder.
 
     
 
§ A.9.9.2 Immediately prior to such partial occupancy or use, the Owner and Design-Builder shall jointly inspect the area to be occupied or portion of the Work to be used to determine and record the condition of the Work.
 
     
 
§ A.9.9.3 Unless otherwise agreed upon, partial occupancy or use of a portion or portions of the Work shall not constitute acceptance of Work not complying with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.9.10 FINAL COMPLETION AND FINAL PAYMENT
 
 
§ A.9.10.1 Upon receipt of written notice that the Work is ready for final inspection and acceptance and upon receipt of a final Application for Payment, the Owner shall promptly make such inspection and, when the Owner finds the Work acceptable under the Design-Build Documents and fully performed, the Owner shall, subject to Section A.9.10.2, promptly make final payment to the Design-Builder.
 
     
 
§ A.9.10.2 Neither final payment nor any remaining retained percentage will become due until the Design-Builder submits to the Owner (1) an affidavit that payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the Owner or the Owner’s property might be responsible or encumbered (less amounts withheld by Owner) have been paid or otherwise satisfied, (2) a certificate evidencing that insurance required by the Design-Build Documents to remain in force after final payment is currently in effect and will not be cancelled or allowed to expire until at least 30 days’ prior written notice has been given to the Owner, (3) a written statement that the Design-Builder knows of no substantial reason that the insurance will not be renewable to cover the period required by the Design-Build Documents, (4) consent of surety, if any, to final payment, and (5) if required by the Owner, other data establishing payment or satisfaction of obligations, such as receipts, releases and waivers of liens, claims, security interests or encumbrances arising out of the Design-Build Contract, to the extent and in such form as may be designated by the Owner. If a Contractor refuses to furnish a release or waiver required by the Owner, the Design-Builder may furnish a bond satisfactory to the Owner to indemnify the Owner against such lien. If such lien remains unsatisfied after payments are made, the Design-Builder shall refund to the Owner all money that the Owner may be liable to pay in connection with the discharge of such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

§ A.11.4.7 Waivers of Subrogation. The Owner and Design-Builder waive all rights against each other and any of their consultants, separate contractors described in Section A.6.1, if any, Contractors, Subcontractors, agents and employees, each of the other, and any of their contractors, subcontractors, agents and employees, for damages caused by fire or other causes of loss to the extent covered by property insurance obtained pursuant to this Section A.11.4 or other property insurance applicable to the Work, except such rights as they have to proceeds of such insurance held by the Owner as fiduciary. The Owner or Design-Builder, as appropriate, shall require of the separate contractors described in Section A.6.1, if any, and the Contractors, Subcontractors, agents and employees of any of them, by appropriate agreements, written where legally required for validity, similar waivers each in favor of other parties enumerated herein. The policies shall provide such waivers of subrogation by endorsement or otherwise.

§ A.12.1.2 If a portion of the Work has been covered which the Owner has not specifically requested to examine prior to its being covered, the Owner may request to see such Work and it shall be uncovered by the Design-Builder. If such Work is in accordance with the Design-Build Documents, costs of uncovering and replacement shall, by appropriate Change Order, be at the Owner’s expense.

§ A.12.2.2 AFTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION
 
 
§ A.12.2.2.1 In addition to the Design-Builder’s obligations under Section A.3.5, if, within one year after the date of Substantial Completion or after the date for commencement of warranties established under Section A.9.8.5 or by terms of an applicable special warranty required by the Design-Build Documents, any of the Work is found to be not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents, the Design-Builder shall correct it promptly after receipt of written notice from the Owner to do so unless the Owner has previously given the Design-Builder a written acceptance of such condition. The Owner shall give such notice promptly after discovery of the condition. During the one-year period for correction of Work, if the Owner fails to notify the Design-Builder and give the Design-Builder an opportunity to make the correction, the Owner waives the rights to require correction by the Design-Builder and to make a claim for breach of warranty. If the Design-Builder fails to correct non-conforming Work within a reasonable time during that period after receipt of notice from the Owner, the Owner may correct it in accordance with Section A.2.5.
 
     
 
§ A.12.2.2.2 The one-year period for correction of Work shall be extended with respect to portions of Work first performed after Substantial Completion by the period of time between Substantial Completion and the actual performance of the Work.
 
     
 
§ A.12.2.2.3 The one-year period for correction of Work shall not be extended by corrective Work performed by the Design-Builder pursuant to this Section A.12.2.
 
     
 
§ A.12.2.3 The Design-Builder shall remove from the site portions of the Work which are not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents and are neither corrected by the Design-Builder nor accepted by the Owner.
 
     
 
§ A.12.2.4 The Design-Builder shall bear the cost of correcting destroyed or damaged construction, whether completed or partially completed, of the Owner or separate contractors caused by the Design-Builder’s correction or removal of Work which is not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents.
 
     
 
§ A.12.2.5 Nothing contained in this Section A.12.2 shall be construed to establish a period of limitation with respect to other obligations the Design-Builder might have under the Design-Build Documents. Establishment of the one-year period for correction of Work as described in Section A.12.2.2 relates only to the specific obligation of the Design-Builder to correct the Work, and has no relationship to the time within which the obligation to comply with the Design-Build Documents may be sought to be enforced, nor to the time within which proceedings may be commenced to establish the Design-Builder’s liability with respect to the Design-Builder’s obligations other than specifically to correct the Work.
 
     
 
§ A.12.3 ACCEPTANCE OF NONCONFORMING WORK
 
 
§ A.12.3.1 If the Owner prefers to accept Work not in accordance with the requirements of the Design-Build Documents, the Owner may do so instead of requiring its removal and correction, in which case the Contract Sum will be equitably adjusted by Change Order. Such adjustment shall be effected whether or not final payment has been made.
 
     
 
ARTICLE A.13      MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
 
 
§ A.13.1 GOVERNING LAW
 
 
§ A.13.1.1 The Design-Build Contract shall be governed by the law of the place where the Project is located.
 
     
 
§ A.13.2 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS
 
 
§ A. 13.2.1 The Owner and Design-Builder respectively bind themselves, their partners, successors, assigns and legal representatives to the other party hereto and to partners, successors, assigns and legal representatives of such other party in respect to covenants, agreements and obligations contained in the Design-Build Documents. Except as provided in Section A.13.2.2, neither party to the Design-Build Contract shall assign the Design-Build Contract as a whole without written consent of the other. If either party attempts to make such an assignment without such consent, that party shall nevertheless remain legally responsible for all obligations under the Design-Build Contract.
 
     
 
§ A.13.2.2 The Owner may, without consent of the Design-Builder, assign the Design-Build Contract to an institutional lender providing construction financing for the Project. In such event, the lender shall assume the Owner’s rights and obligations under the Design-Build Documents. The Design-Builder shall execute all consents reasonably required to facilitate such assignment.

(j)          any other circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety.
 
No set-off, claim, reduction or diminution of any obligation, or any defense of any kind or nature, including but not limited to, all offers, setoffs, rights, remedies or defenses which may be afforded Guarantor or which any other obligor now has or hereafter may have against Owner, shall be available hereunder to Guarantor against Owner.
 
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor waives any setoff or offset rights which it might otherwise have by reason of any release of fewer than all guarantors.
 
1.03.     No Notice or Duty to Exhaust Remedies. Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand, protest and all notices of any kind, and waives any requirement that Owner exhaust any right or remedy, or proceed first or at any time, against any other guarantor of, or any security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty constitutes an agreement of suretyship as well as of guaranty, and Owner may pursue its rights and remedies under this Guaranty in whatever order, or collectively, and shall be entitled to payment and performance hereunder notwithstanding any action taken by Owner or inaction by Owner to enforce any of its rights or remedies against any other guarantor or any other Person or property whatsoever. The term “Person” as used herein shall include any individual, company, trust or other legal entity of any kind whatsoever.
 
1.04.     Indemnity. Guarantor shall fully indemnify and save Owner harmless from any and all costs, expenses and losses either of them may incur with regard to the construction of the Improvements, including without limitation any and all costs, expenses, and losses arising from any default by Guarantor in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
1.06.    SUBORDINATION OF SUBROGATION.
 
This provision shall be applicable until such time as all Guaranteed Obligations have been satisfied.
 
NOTWITHSTANDING ANY PAYMENTS MADE OR OBLIGATIONS PERFORMED BY GUARANTOR BY REASON OF THIS GUARANTY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO APPLICATION OF FUNDS ON ACCOUNT OF SUCH PAYMENTS OR OBLIGATIONS), GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBORDINATES TO THE PRIOR PAYMENT IN FULL OF THE GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS ANY AND ALL RIGHTS IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME (WHETHER ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, BY OPERATION OF LAW, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) TO ASSERT ANY CLAIM AGAINST ANY OTHER PERSON, OR AGAINST ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT SECURITY, ON ACCOUNT OF PAYMENTS MADE OR OBLIGATIONS PERFORMED UNDER OR PURSUANT TO THIS GUARANTY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY AND ALL RIGHTS OF SUBROGATION, REIMBURSEMENT, EXONERATION, CONTRIBUTION OR INDEMNITY.

ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
 
2.01.     Representations and Warranties. Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and certifies to Owner that the representations and warranties made by Guarantor the Contract are true and correct on the date hereof.
 
2.02.     Covenants. Guarantor hereby covenants to Owner that:
 
(a)         Promptly upon becoming aware thereof, Guarantor shall give Owner notice of (i) the commencement, existence or threat of any material litigation or proceeding by or before any governmental authority against or affecting such Guarantor or any of its affiliates which, if adversely decided, would have a material adverse effect on the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of such Guarantor or on its ability to perform its Guaranteed Obligations hereunder or (ii) any material adverse change in the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of such Guarantor.
 
(b)         Guarantor shall permit such Persons as Owner may designate to examine such Guarantor’s books and records relating to Guarantor’s financial condition and take copies and extracts therefrom and to discuss the affairs of Guarantor with their officers, employees and independent accountants at such times and as often as Owner may reasonably request. Guarantor hereby authorizes such officers, employees and independent accountants to discuss with Owner the affairs of Guarantor.
 
(c)         Guarantor shall not dissolve, merge or consolidate with any other Person or sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or a substantial part of its assets, and shall continue to engage in its business substantially as currently conducted and operated.
 
(d)         If required by Owner, Guarantor shall furnish to Owner on an annual basis all financial statements and tax returns of Guarantor. Financial statements should be delivered no later than 60 days after the end of a reporting period. Tax returns should be provided no later than 15 days after filing (including filing of a request for an extension).
 
All financial statements and reports required under this section, which may hereafter be delivered, are and will be true and complete in all material respects as of their respective dates (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments) and prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, and fairly represent the financial conditions of the persons to which they pertain, and no materially adverse change has occurred in the financial conditions reflected therein since the respective dates thereof.

ARTICLE III
MISCELLANEOUS
 
3.01.      Damages. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it may be impossible to measure accurately the damages to Owner resulting from a breach of Guarantor’s covenant to discharge or perform its Guaranteed Obligations and that such a breach will cause irreparable injury to Owner and that Owner may not have an adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach, and as a consequence, agrees that such covenant shall be specifically enforceable against Guarantor. Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert in any action for specific performance of such covenant, any defense that specific performance is not an available remedy. This Section 3.01 shall not prejudice Owner’s rights to assert any and all claims for damages incurred as a result of the failure of Guarantor to discharge or perform the Guaranteed Obligations, and Owner may, before, during, or after any foreclosure, hold Guarantor liable for all losses and damages sustained and expenses incurred by reason of such failure.
 
3.02.      Further Assurances. From time to time upon the request of Owner, Guarantor shall promptly and duly execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such further instruments and documents as Owner may deem necessary or desirable to confirm this Guaranty, to carry out the purpose and intent hereof or to enable Owner to enforce any of its rights hereunder.
 
3.03.      Amendments. Waivers, Etc. This Guaranty cannot be amended, modified, waived, changed, discharged or terminated except by an instrument in writing signed by Owner and Guarantor.
 
3.04.      No Implied Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No course of dealing and no delay or failure of Owner in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty or the Contract shall affect any other or future exercise thereof or exercise of any other right, power or privilege; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or privilege or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right, power or privilege preclude any further exercise thereof or of any right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies of Owner under this Guaranty are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which Owner would otherwise have under the Contract, at law or in equity.
 
3.05.      Enforceability. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that: (a) the obligations undertaken by Guarantor in this Guaranty are complex in nature, and (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of Owner’s consideration for entering into this transaction, Owner has specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by Guarantor of all such defenses, and (d) Guarantor has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all of the above, Guarantor does hereby represent and confirm to Owner that Guarantor is fully informed regarding, and that Guarantor does thoroughly understand: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, and (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise, and (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Guarantor, and (iv) the legal consequences to Guarantor of waiving such defenses. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor makes this Guaranty with the intent that this Guaranty and all of the informed waivers herein shall each and all be fully enforceable by Owner, and that Owner is induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.

3.06.     Notices. All notices, demands, or other communications under this Guaranty shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the appropriate party at the address set forth on the signature page of this Guaranty (subject to change from time to time by written notice to Owner and all other parties to this Guaranty). All communications shall be deemed served upon delivery of same, or if mailed, upon the first to occur of receipt or the expiration of three (3) days after the deposit in the United States Postal Service mail, postage prepaid and addressed to the address of Guarantor or Owner at the address specified herein; provided, however, that non-receipt of any communication as the result of any change of address of which the sending party was not notified or as the result of a refusal to accept delivery shall be deemed receipt of such communication. Owner’s address is the address set forth in the first paragraph on page 1 of this Guaranty. Guarantor’s address shall be set forth below its signature hereto.
 
3.07.     Default Remedies. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default hereunder (“Event of Default”):
 
(a)         The failure of Guarantor to duly and promptly pay and perform any of the Guaranteed Obligations guarantied hereunder.
 
(b)         If any representation or warranty made by Guarantor hereunder, or in any financial statement, certificate or other document delivered by Guarantor to Owner to induce such party to accept this Guaranty, shall be false or inaccurate in any material respect.
 
(c)         The breach or failure by Guarantor to perform any other covenant or agreement contained herein or the repudiation by Guarantor of its Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty.
 
(d)         An event of default under any of the other Loan Documents not cured as provided therein.

An Event of Default under this Guaranty shall, at the continuing option of Owner, be an Event of Default under the Contract and the Oregon Deed of Trust.
 
3.08.     Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay or cause to be paid and to save Owner harmless against liability for the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including fees and expenses of counsel for Owner, incurred by Owner from time to time arising in connection with Owner’s enforcement or preservation of rights under this Guaranty, including but not limited to such expenses as may be incurred by Owner in connection with any default by Guarantor of any of its Guaranteed Obligations hereunder.

3.09.      Termination; Survival. Provided that all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been satisfied and the Project has been completed pursuant to the terms of the Contract and the Plans and Specifications, then this Guaranty shall terminate and shall be of no further force or effect, and Owner shall release the Oregon Deed of Trust within ten (10) days of notice of such completion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnities contained herein, including the indemnity set forth in Section 1.04 hereof, shall survive such termination. All obligations of Guarantor to indemnify Owner shall survive the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
3.10.     Jurisdiction; Venue; Jury Trial. Guarantor irrevocably (a) agrees that Owner may bring suit, action or other legal proceedings arising out of this Guaranty in the courts of the State of Mississippi or any court of the United States for the State of Mississippi; (b) consents to the jurisdiction of each such court in any such suit, action or proceeding; (c) waives any objection which Guarantor may have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any of such courts; and (d) waives any right Guarantor may have to a jury trial in connection with any such suit, action or proceeding.
 
3.11.     Severability. If any term or provision of this Guaranty or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Guaranty, or the application of such term or provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Guaranty shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
 
3.12.     Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.
 
3.13.     Governing Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Mississippi.
 
3.14.     Successors and Assigns. Guarantor shall not assign its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Owner. This Guaranty shall bind Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of Owner and its successors and assigns.
 
3.15.     Refinance of First Lien on Oregon Property. Owner agrees to permit the refinancing of the existing first lien on the Oregon Property provided that the refinance results in a decrease in the interest rate and is for no more than the sum of $300,000.00.
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty as of the date first above written.

Should the grantor either agree to, attempt to, or actually sell, convey, or assign all (or any part) of the property, or all (or any part) of grantor’s interest in it without first obtaining the written consent or approval of the beneficiary, then, at the beneficiary’s option*, all obligations secured by this instrument, irrespective of the maturity dates expressed therein, or herein, shall become immediately due and payable.

All policies of insurance shall be delivered to the beneficiary as soon as issued. If the grantor shall fail for any reason to procure any such insurance and to deliver the policies to the beneficiary at least fifteen days prior to the expiration of any policy of insurance now or hereafter placed on the buildings, the beneficiary may procure the same at grantor’s expense. The amount collected under any fire or other insurance policy may be applied by beneficiary upon any indebtedness secured hereby and in such order as beneficiary may determine, or at option of beneficiary the entire amount so collected, or any part thereof, may be released to grantor. Such application or release shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.

The amount of attorney fees mentioned in this paragraph in all cases shall be fixed by the trial court, and in the event of an appeal from any Judgment or decree of the trial court, grantor further agrees to pay such sum as the appellate court shall adjudge reasonable as the beneficiary’s or trustee’s attorney fees on such appeal.
 
 
            It is mutually agreed that:
 
 
            8. In the event that any portion or all of the property shall be taken under the right of eminent domain of condemnation, beneficiary shall have the right, if it so elects, to require that all or any portion of the monies payable as compensation for such taking which are in excess of the amount required to pay all reasonable costs, expenses and attorney fees necessarily paid or incurred by grantor in such proceedings, shall be paid to beneficiary and applied by it first upon any reasonable costs and expenses and attorney fees, both in the trial and appellate courts, necessarily paid or incurred by beneficiary in such proceedings, and the balance applied upon the indebtedness secured hereby.

9. At any time, and from time to time upon written request of beneficiary, payment of its fees and presentation of this deed and the note for endorsement (in case of full reconveyances, for cancellation), without affecting the liability of any person for the payment of the indebtedness, trustee may (a) consent to the making of any map or plot of the property; (b) join in granting any easement or creating any restriction thereon; (c) join in any subordination or other agreement affecting this deed or the lien or charge thereof; or (d) reconvey, without warranty, all or any part of the property. The grantee in any reconveyance may be described as the “person or persons legally entitled thereto,” and the recitals therein of any matters or facts shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Trustee fees for any of the services mentioned in this paragraph shall be not less than $5.
 
 
10. Upon any default by grantor hereunder, beneficiary may, at any time without notice, either in person, by agent, or by a receiver to be appointed by a court, and without regard to the adequacy of any security for the indebtedness hereby secured, enter upon and take possession of the property or any part thereof, in its own name sue or otherwise collect the rents, issues and profits, including those past due and unpaid, and apply the same, less costs and expenses of operation and collection, including reasonable attorney fees, upon any indebtedness secured hereby, and in such order as beneficiary may determine.
 
 
11. The entering upon and taking possession of the property, the collection of such rents, issues and profits, or the proceeds of fire and other insurance policies or compensation or awards for any taking or damage of the property, and the application or release thereof as aforesaid, shall not cure or waive any default or notice of default hereunder, or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice.
 
 
12. Upon default by grantor in payment of any indebtedness secured hereby or in grantor’s performance of any agreement hereunder, time being of the essence with respect to such payment and/or performance, the beneficiary may declare all sums secured hereby immediately due and payable. In such event, the beneficiary may elect to proceed to foreclose this trust deed in equity as a mortgage or direct the trustee to foreclose this trust deed by advertisement and sale, or may direct the trustee to pursue any other right or remedy, either at law or in equity, which the beneficiary may have. In the event the beneficiary elects to foreclose by advertisement and sale, the beneficiary or the trustee shall execute and cause to be recorded a written notice of default and election to sell the property to satisfy the obligation secured hereby whereupon the trustee shall fix the time and place of sale, give notice thereof as then required by law and proceed to foreclose this trust deed in the manner provided in ORS 86.735 to 86.795.
 
 
13. After the trustee has commenced foreclosure by advertisement and sale, and at any time prior to 5 days before the date the trustee conducts the sale, the grantor or any other person so privileged by ORS 86.753 may cure the default or defaults. If the default consists of a failure to pay, when due, sums secured by the trust deed, the default may be cured by paying the entire amount due at the time of the cure other than such portion as would not then be due had no default occurred. Any other default that is capable of being cured may be cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed. In any case, in addition to curing the default or defaults, the person effecting the cure shall pay to the beneficiary all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation of the trust deed, together with trustee and attorney fees not exceeding the amounts provided by law.
 
 
14. Otherwise, the sale shall be held on the date end at the time and place designated in the notice of sale or the time to which the sale may be postponed as provided by law. The trustee may sell the property either in one parcel or in separate parcels and shall sell the parcel or parcels at auction to the highest bidder for cash, payable at the time of sale. Trustee shall deliver to the purchaser its deed in form as required by law conveying the property so sold, but without any covenant or warranty, express or implied. The recitals in the deed of any matters of fact shall be conclusive proof of the truthfulness thereof. Any person, excluding the trustee, but including the grantor and beneficiary, may purchase at the sale.
 
 
15. When trustee sells pursuant to the powers provided herein, trustee shall apply the proceeds of sale to payment of; (1) the expenses of sale, including the compensation of the trustee and a reasonable charge by trustee’s attorney; (2) to the obligation secured by the trust deed; (3) to all persons having recorded liens subsequent to the interest of the trustee in the trust deed as their interests may appear in the order of their priority; and (4) the surplus, if any, to the grantor, or to any successor in interest entitled to such surplus.
 
 
16. Beneficiary may, from time to time, appoint a successor or successors to any trustee named herein or to any successor trustee appointed hereunder. Upon such appointment, and without conveyance to the successor trustee, the latter shall be vested with all title, powers and duties conferred upon any trustee herein named or appointed hereunder. Each such appointment and substitution shall be made by written instrument executed by beneficiary, which, when recorded in the mortgage records of the county or counties in which the property is situated, shall be conclusive proof of proper appointment of the successor trustee.
 
 
17. Trustee accepts this trust when this deed, duly executed and acknowledged, is made a public record as provided by law. Trustee is not obligated to notify any party hereto of pending sale under any other deed of trust or of any action or proceeding in which grantor, beneficiary or trustee shall be a party unless such action or proceeding is brought by trustee.
 
 
The grantor covenants to and agrees with the beneficiary and the beneficiary’s successors in interest that the grantor is lawfully seized in fee simple of the real property and has a valid, unencumbered title thereto, except as may be set forth in any addendum or exhibit attached hereto, and that the grantor will warrant and forever defend the same against all persons whomsoever.
 
 
WARNING: Unless grantor provides beneficiary with evidence of insurance coverage as required by the contract or loan agreement between them, beneficiary may purchase insurance at grantor’s expense to protect beneficiary’s interest. This insurance may, but need not, also protect grantor’s interest. If the collateral becomes damaged, the coverage purchased by beneficiary may not pay any claim made by or against grantor. Grantor may later cancel the coverage by providing evidence that grantor has obtained property coverage elsewhere. Grantor is responsible for the cost of any insurance coverage purchased by beneficiary, which cost may be added to grantor’s contract or loan balance. If it is so added, the interest rate on the underlying contract or loan will apply to it. The effective date of coverage may be the date grantor’s prior coverage lapsed or the date grantor failed to provide proof of coverage. The coverage beneficiary purchases may be considerably more expensive than insurance grantor might otherwise obtain alone and may not satisfy any need for property damage coverage or any mandatory liability insurance requirements imposed by applicable law.
 
 
The grantor warrants that the proceeds of the loan represented by the above described note and this trust deed are (choose one):*
 
 
(a) primarily for grantor’s personal, family or household purposes (see Important Notice below).
 
 
(b) for an organization, or (even if grantor is a natural person) are for business or commercial purposes.
 
 
This deed applies to, inures to the benefit of, and binds all parties hereto, their heirs, legatees, devisees, administrators, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns. The term beneficiary shall mean the holder and owner, including pledgee, of the contract secured hereby, whether or not named as a beneficiary herein.
 
 
In construing this instrument, where the context so requires, the singular includes the plural, and all grammatical changes shall be made so that this instrument shall apply equally to businesses, other entities and to individuals.
 
 
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, grantor has executed this instrument the date stated above; any signature on behalf of a business or other entity is made with the authority of that entity.
 
         
         
 
*IMPORTANT NOTICE: Delete, by lining out, whichever warranty (a) or (b) is inapplicable. If warranty (a) is applicable and the beneficiary is a creditor as such word is defined in the Truth-in-Lending Act and Regulation Z, the beneficiary MUST comply with the Act and Regulation by making required disclosures. If compliance with the Act is not required, disregard this notice.
