ARTICLE 3 - CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
3.1 Integration of Contract Documents. The Contract Documents comprise the entire
Agreement between OWNER and CONTRACTOR concerning the Work. The Contract
Documents are complementary; what is called for by one is as binding as if called for by
all. The Contract Documents will be construed in accordance with the law of the State of
Indiana and without regard to the party by or for whom they were prepared or drafted.
3.2 Intent and Meaning. It is the intent of the Contract Documents to describe a functionally
complete Project (or part thereof) to be constructed in accordance therewith. Any :Work,
materials or equipment that may reasonably be inferred from the Contract Documents as
being required to produce the intended result will be supplied whether or not specifically
called for. Notations, details or other descriptions which apply to one of a number of
situations, materials, processes or work items shall apply to all except as specifically
stated otherwise. When words which have a well-known technical or trade meaning are
used to describe Work, materials or equipment, such words shall be given that meaning
unless a different meaning is reasonably apparent as determined by the ENGINEER.
Reference to standard specifications, manuals or codes of any technical society,
organization or association, or to the Laws or Regulations of any governmental authority,
whether such reference be specific or by implication, shall mean the latest standard
specification, manual or code or Laws or Regulations in effect at the time of opening of
Bids. If said standard specification, manual or code or Laws or Regulations are
promulgated, amended, revised or otherwise changed subsequent to the opening of Bids,
CONTRACTOR shall notify OWNER who may direct compliance under Section 9.1.
However, no provision of any referenced standard specification, manual or code (whether
or not specifically incorporated by reference in the Contract Documents) shall be
effective to change the duties and responsibilities of OWNER, CONTRACTOR or
ENGINEER, or any of their consultants, agents or employees, or to limit or impair any
right or remedy of the OWNER, as set forth in the Contract Documents, nor shall it be
effective to assign to the OWNER, ENGINEER or any of their respective consultants,
agents or employees any duty or authority to supervise or direct the furnishing or
performance of the Work or any duty or authority to undertake responsibility, contrary to
the provisions of Section 8.10 or 8.11.
G-7
for reliance on such "technical data", CONTRACTOR may not rely upon and may not
make any claim against OWNER, ENGINEER or any of ENGINEER's Consultants with
respect to . (i) the completeness of such reports and drawings for ,CONTRACTOR'S
purposes, including, but not limited to, any aspects of the means, methods, techniques,
f� sequences and procedures of construction to be employed by CONTRACTOR and safety
precautions and programs incident thereto, or (ii) other data, interpretations, opinions and
information contained in such reports or shown or indicated in such drawings.
4.3 Differing Subsurface or Physical Conditions. If CONTRACTOR uncovers, observes or
otherwise becomes aware of any subsurface or physical condition (other than
Underground Facilities) at or contiguous to the site and believes that such condition either
(i) differs materially from that shown or indicated in the Contract Documents, (ii) 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 , or (iii) is -of such a nature as to establish that any "technical data" on which
CONTRACTOR is entitled to rely as provided in paragraph 4.2 is materially inaccurate;
then CONTRACTOR shall, immediately upon becoming aware thereof and before further
disturbing or taking other action in respect thereof or performing any Work in connection
therewith (except in an emergency as permitted by Section 6.21), notify OWNER and
ENGINEER in writing about such condition, which notice shall state the
CONTRACTOR's recommendations or proposals for taking action in connection;' with
the conditions.
4.3.1 CONTRACTOR shall not further disturb such conditions or perform any Work in
connection therewith (except as aforesaid) until receipt of a written directive from
OWNER or ENGINEER to do so, but to the fullest extent possible
CONTRACTOR shall continue to prosecute all other Work not affected by the
conditions;
4.3.2 ENGINEER will promptly review the pertinent conditions, determine the
necessity of obtaining additional explorations or tests with respect thereto and
advise OWNER in writing (with a copy to CONTRACTOR) of ENGINEER's
findings and conclusions;
4.3.3 If OWNER in consultation with the ENGINEER concludes that a change in the
Contract Documents or other action is required because of the conditions, a Work
Directive Change or other instructions or interpretations may be issued as
provided in Article 9 to reflect and document the consequences of the conditions;
4.3.4 In each such case, an increase or decrease in the Contract Price or an extension or
shortening of the Contract Time, or any combination thereof, may be allowable,
but only to the extent that (i) evidence of such conditions could not with the
exercise of reasonable competence and diligence have been discovered or foreseen
by CONTRACTOR prior to submission of the CONTRACTOR's Bid, (ii) the
` - CONTRACTOR, by the terms of the Contract Documents, has not assumed the
risk of such conditions, and (iii) CONTRACTOR has explicitly fulfilled the
+' written notice requirements provided by this Section 4.3. The CONTRACTOR

ENGINEER to be necessary to enable CONTRACTOR to proceed with the Work unless
otherwise specified. CONTRACTOR shall be responsible for laying out the Work, shall.
locate all mechanical and electrical services uncovered by excavation, shall establish all
grades, lines, levels and bench -marks, and shall protect and preserve the established
reference points and shall make no changes or relocations without the prior written
approval of OWNER. CONTRACTOR shall report to ENGINEER when any reference
point is lost or destroyed or requires relocation because of necessary changes in grades or
locations, and shall be responsible for the accurate replacement or relocation of such
reference points by professionally qualified personnel. CONTRACTOR shall maintain a

shall be set by CONTRACTOR as the Work progresses and will be located to
_ cause as little inconvenience to the prosecution of the Work as possible.
CONTRACTOR shall place excavation and other materials so as to cause no
inconvenience in the use of the reference marks provided. CONTRACTOR shall
remove any obstructions placed by CONTRACTOR contrary to this provision at
no cost to OWNER.
4.6.2 CONTRACTOR shall furnish and maintain, at his own expense, stakes and other
such materials, and give such assistance, including qualified helpers, as may be
required by ENGINEER for setting and checking line and grade reference marks.
CONTRACTOR shall check such reference marks by such means as he may deem
- necessary and, before using the reference marks, shall call ENGINEER's attention
to any inaccuracies. CONTRACTOR shall, at his own expense, establish all
working or construction lines and grades as required from the, reference marks set
by ENGINEER, and shall be solely responsible for the accuracy thereof.
CONTRACTOR shall, however, be subject to the check and review of
ENGINEER. CONTRACTOR shall keep ENGINEER informed a reasonable
time in advance as to his need for line and grade reference marks, in order that
t
they may be furnished and all necessary measurements made for record and

Instructions To Bidders:
The Bidder shall enter, in the spaces provided below, the name of the manufacturer of
equipment that the Bidder proposes to furnish for each item of equipment listed in the
Manufacturers List which follows. The Bidder shall enter the name of only one
manufacturer for each listed equipment item. Failure to enter a manufacturer's name for
( each listed equipment item may render the Bid non-responsive if it is determined that
such omission is material by affording the Bidder a substantial advantage over other
Bidders.
Upon award of a contract, each listed equipment item shall be furnished by the named
- manufacturer, unless changes are specifically authorized. Equipment substitutions will be
permitted only with the OWNER'S prior consent.
Preliminary acceptance of equipment listed by the manufacturer's name shall not in any
way constitute a waiver of the Drawing and Specification requirements covering such
equipment. Acceptance will be based on full conformity with the Drawings and
Specifications covering the equipment.

thereon of new developments. These will conform generally to the progress schedule
then in effect and additionally will comply with any provisions of the General Conditions
i applicable thereto.
6.7 Substitute or "Or Equal" Items. Whenever, in the Contract Documents, an article,
ji material, apparatus, equipment, or process is called for by trade name or by the name of a
patentee, manufacturer, or dealer or by reference to catalogs of a manufacturer or dealer,
It shall be understood as intending to mean and specify the article, material, apparatus,
equipment, or process designated, or any approved equal thereto in quality, finish, design,
efficiency and durability and equally serviceable for the purposes for which it is intended.
Whenever material or equipment is submitted by CONTRACTOR for approval as being
i equal to that specified, the submittal shall include sufficient information and data to
- demonstrate that the material or equipment conforms to all Contract requirements. The
decision as to whether or not such material or equipment is equal to that specified shall be
made by the OWNER in consultation with ENGINEER. Neither the approval of alternate
material or equipment as being equivalent to that specified nor the furnishing of the
material or equipment specified, shall in any way relieve CONTRACTOR of
responsibility for failure of the material or equipment, due to faulty design, material, or
workmanship, to perform the functions required by the Contract Documents.
6.8 Engagement of Subcontractors, Suppliers and Others. CONTRACTOR shall not employ
any Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization, whether initially or as a
substitute, against whom OWNER or ENGINEER may have reasonable objection.

Contract Documents, OWNER's or ENGINEER's acceptance or acquiescence as to any
such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or organization so identified may be revoked
on the basis of reasonable objection after due investigation, in which case
CONTRACTOR shall submit an acceptable substitute, in which case the Contract Price
will be adjusted by the difference in the cost occasioned by such substitution and an
appropriate Change Order will be issued or Written Amendment signed. No acceptance
by OWNER or ENGINEER of any such Subcontractor, Supplier or other person or
organization shall constitute a waiver of any right of OWNER or ENGINEER to reject
Defective Work or to pursue other rights and remedies in respect thereof.
6.9 Responsibility For Others. CONTRACTOR shall be fully responsible to OWNER and
ENGINEER for all acts and omissions of his Subcontractors, Suppliers and other persons
and organizations performing or furnishing any of the Work under a direct or indirect

ENGINEER and OWNER prompt written notice thereof, and if OWNER in consultation

authorized by one of the methods indicated in Section 3.4. It shall not be the
CONTRACTOR's primary responsibility to make certain that the Specifications and
Drawings are in accordance with Laws and Regulations, however, this shall not relieve
CONTRACTOR of CONTRACTOR's obligations under this paragraph or under Section
2.6 or Section 3.3. If CONTRACTOR performs any Work knowing or having reason to

Indiana Secretary of State to do business in Indiana shall be exempt from this withholding
requirement. Exemption certificates for the Indiana Gross Retail tax (sales tax) for
property that becomes property of OWNER and all Federal Excise tax can be furnished
by OWNER and therefore such taxes shall not be included in the Contract Price.
CONTRACTOR may request exemption certificate forms directly from OWNER.

r� CONTRACTOR without any increase in the Contract Price. OWNER shall pay

CONTRACTOR shall have no claim against OWNER for delays, disruptions or
hindrances caused by other contractors who may be operating at the site, including,
without limitation, delays resulting from lack of coordination. Should CONTRACTOR

completion contractors to complete the Work shall constitute a waiver by OWNER or
deprive OWNER of its right to retain, receive and recover such liquidated damages from
CONTRACTOR and its surety or diminish the period of delayed completion from which
such liquidated damages are to be determined.
j�
'- 11.4 Extension of Contract Time. If CONTRACTOR is delayed or hindered at any time in the
progress of the Work by any act or neglect of OWNER or ENGINEER, or by any
employee of either, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by unavoidable labor disputes,
fire, unusual delay in transportation, unavoidable casualties, unforeseeable abnormal and
unusually severe weather conditions, or any other causes beyond CONTRACTOR's
L�
control and the risks of which are not otherwise assumed by CONTRACTOR under the
Contract Documents (collectively referred to as Excusable Delays), or by delay
authorized by OWNER pending arbitration, or by any other cause which OWNER, in
consultation with ENGINEER, determines may justify the delay, then the Contract Time
shall be extended by Change Order for such reasonable time as OWNER may determine.
CONTRACTOR shall not be entitled to an extension of time for delays or hindrances
caused by weather conditions or other natural phenomena of normal intensity for the
locality and season during which Work is performed, unsuitable ground conditions except
as may be provided in Article 4, inadequate construction forces, financial difficulties of
CONTRACTOR or his Subcontractors or the failure of CONTRACTOR or its
subcontractors or material suppliers to provide shop drawings or other required submittals
on a timely basis and as scheduled or to place orders for equipment or materials
-� sufficiently in advance to insure timely and proper delivery.
11.5 Notice of Delays or Hindrances. The Contract Time may only be extended by a Change
- Order or by a Written Agreement. CONTRACTOR's entitlement to an increase in the
Contract Time shall be conditioned upon CONTRACTOR furnishing a written notice to
the OWNER and ENGINEER no later than twenty (20) days after the occurrence of the
event or the commencement of a series of events giving rise to the request for extension,
which notice shall particularly state the factual basis and grounds for the request and the
duration of time sought as an extension of the Contract Time. Additional supporting data
- as required by OWNER or ENGINEER, shall be delivered to OWNER or ENGINEER
within thirty (30) days after such notice, unless OWNER, for good cause shown, allows
an additional period of time for CONTRACTOR to ascertain and present accurate
supporting data. A notice of time extension request by CONTRACTOR under this
Section shall be conclusively presumed to include all direct, indirect and cumulative
impact upon the time required by CONTRACTOR to perform and complete the Work as
a result of all facts, occurrences and events giving rise thereto. Nothing provided in this
- Section shall be construed to afford the CONTRACTOR any rights or claims otherwise
precluded by any other provisions of these General Conditions or other' Contract

the Work. The cost of all other inspections, tests and approvals which are required by
Contract Documents shall be paid -by OWNER except as otherwise specified. All
inspections, tests or approvals other than those required by Laws or Regulations of any
(- public body having jurisdiction shall be performed by organizations acceptable to
OWNER and CONTRACTOR or by ENGINEER if so specified. Neither observations
by ENGINEER nor inspections, tests or approvals by others shall relieve
CONTRACTOR from CONTRACTOR's obligations to perform the Work in accordance
with the Contract Documents.
12.4 Uncovering Work. If any Work is covered contrary to written request of ENGINEER, it
must, if requested by ENGINEER, be uncovered for ENGINEER's observation and
replaced at CONTRACTOR's expense. If any Work (including the work of others) that
is to be inspected, tested or approved is covered or reasonable 'access thereto is impaired
without written concurrence of ENGINEER, it must, if requested by OWNER or
ENGINEER, be uncovered or access thereto open for observation. Such uncovering shall
be at CONTRACTOR's expense unless CONTRACTOR has given ENGINEER timely
notice of CONTRACTOR's intention to cover such Work and ENGINEER has not acted
with reasonable promptness in response to such notice. If ENGINEER considers it
necessary or advisable that covered Work be observed by ENGINEER or inspected or
tested by others, CONTRACTOR, at ENGINEER's request, shall uncover, expose or
otherwise make available for observation, inspection or testing as ENGINEER may
require, that portion of the Work in question, furnishing all necessary labor, material and
equipment. If it is found that such Work is Defective, CONTRACTOR shall bear all
direct, indirect and consequential costs of such uncovering, exposure, observation,
inspection and testing and of satisfactory reconstruction, (including, but not limited to,
fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals) and OWNER
shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price by Change Order or
Written Agreement. If, however, such Work is not found to be Defective,
CONTRACTOR shall be allowed an increase in the Contract Price or an extension of the
Contract Time, or both, directly attributable to such uncovering, exposure, observation,
inspection, testing and reconstruction; and, if the parties are unable to agree as to the
amount or extent thereof, CONTRACTOR may make a claim therefore as provided in
Articles 10 and 1.1.
12.5 OWNER May Stop the Work. If the Work is determined by OWNER or ENGINEER to
be Defective, or CONTRACTOR fails to supply sufficient skilled workers or suitable
materials or equipment, or fails to furnish or perform the Work in such a way that the
completed Work will conform to the Contract Documents, OWNER may order
CONTRACTOR to stop the Work, or any portion thereof, until the cause for such order
has been eliminated; however, this right of OWNER to stop the Work shall not give rise
to any duty on the part of OWNER to exercise this right for the benefit of
CONTRACTOR or any other party.
i
12.6 Pre -Completion Correction or Removal of Defective Work. If required by OWNER or
ENGINEER prior to Substantial Completion, CONTRACTOR shall promptly, as
directed, either correct all Defective Work, whether or not fabricated, installed or
completed, or, if the Work has been rejected by OWNER or ENGINEER, remove it from
G-39
or enforce CONTRACTOR's liability with respect to obligations other than
specifically to correct defects in the Work as prescribed by this Section.
12.8 Option To Accept Defective Work. Instead of requiring correction or removal and
replacement of Defective Work, OWNER may elect to accept such Work in the condition
as provided. CONTRACTOR shall bear all direct, indirect and consequential costs
=' attributable to OWNER's evaluation of and determination to accept such Defective Work,
to include, but not be limited to, fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and
other professionals. If any such acceptance occurs prior to ENGINEER's
recommendation of final payment, a Change Order will be issued incorporating the
i
necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the Work; and OWNER
shall be entitled to an appropriate decrease in the Contract Price to account for such costs
and damages. If the acceptance occurs after such recommendation of final payment, such
costs and damages shall be paid by CONTRACTOR and its surety to OWNER.
12.9 OWNER May Correct Defective Work. If CONTRACTOR fails within a reasonable time
to proceed to correct Defective Work or to remove andre place rejected Work as provided
by Section 12.6, or if CONTRACTOR fails in any respect to perform the Work in
accordance with the Contract Documents or if CONTRACTOR fails to comply with any
other provision of the Contract Documents, OWNER may, after seven (7) days written
notice to CONTRACTOR, correct and remedy any such deficiency , and may exclude
CONTRACTOR from all or part of the site, take possession of all or part of the Work,
suspend CONTRACTOR's services related thereto, and take possession of
CONTRACTOR's tools, appliances, construction equipment and machinery at the site
and incorporate in the Work all materials and equipment stored at the site or for which
OWNER has paid CONTRACTOR but which are stored elsewhere. CONTRACTOR
shall allow OWNER, ENGINEER, their respective representatives and other contractors
full and unhindered access to the site to enable OWNER to exercise the rights and
remedies under this Section. All claims costs, losses and damages incurred or sustained
by OWNER in exercising such rights and remedies will be charged against
CONTRACTOR and its surety and OWNER shall be entitled to a corresponding decrease
in the Contract Price and a Change Order or Written Agreement will be issued
incorporating the necessary revisions in the Contract Documents with respect to the
Work. Such direct, indirect and consequential costs shall include, but not be limited to,
fees and charges of engineers, architects, attorneys and other professionals, all court and
arbitration costs and all costs of repair and replacement of work or property of OWNER
or others destroyed or damaged by correction, removal or replacement of
CONTRACTOR's Defective Work CONTRACTOR shall not be allowed an extension of
the Contract Time because of any delay or hindrance in performance of the Work.
attributable to the exercise by OWNER of OWNER's rights and remedies hereunder.

Upon issuance and OWNER's execution of a Certificate of Substantial Completion,
j OWNER may reduce the retained amount to not less than two hundred percent (200%) of
the cost of the Work remaining to be completed, corrected or accepted. Retainage may
not be reduced until CONTRACTOR provides OWNER with complete and legally

_ receipt in full, CONTRACTOR may furnish a Bond or other collateral satisfactory to
OWNER to indemnify OWNER against any claim or lien.
_ 13.6 Applications for Progress Payment. At least twenty (20) days before each Progress
Payment is scheduled (but not more often than once a month), CONTRACTOR shall
submit to ENGINEER for review a properly completed and signed Application for
Payment upon such form as OWNER may prescribe, together with such supporting
documentation as OWNER may prescribe under the Contract Documents. The
submission of any request for progress payment shall be deemed a waiver and release by
CONTRACTOR of all liens and claims with respect to the Work and period to which
such Progress Payment request pertains except as specifically reserved and noted on such
i'.
request. The second and each subsequent Application for Progress Payment shall include
an affidavit from CONTRACTOR stating that all previous Progress Payments received
on account of the Work have been applied to discharge in full all of CONTRACTOR's
obligations in respect of Work covered by prior Applications. OWNER or ENGINEER

to all Work, materials and equipment covered by any Application for Payment, whether
,M
Substantial Completion, as accepted and approved by OWNER, will be submitted to
CONTRACTOR for acceptance, which acceptance shall be deemed effective, and
CONTRACTOR shall become unconditionally bound to the terms thereof, upon (i)
CONTRACTORs execution of the certificate, or (ii) CONTRACTOR's failure to provide
written notice objecting to the terms of such certificate within five (5) days after receipt
thereof.
13.11 Site Access Upon Substantial Completion. OWNER shall have the right, but not the
obligation, to exclude CONTRACTOR from the site of the Work after the date of
�- Substantial Completion, but OWNER shall allow CONTRACTOR reasonable access to
the site to complete or correct items of Work or to fulfill other obligations as provided by
the Certificate of Substantial Completion.
13.12 Partial Utilization and Occupancy. Use or occupancy by OWNER of portions of the
Work may be accomplished, prior to Substantial Completion of all the Work upon
determination by OWNER in consultation with ENGINEER that any such portion
constitutes a separately functioning and usable part of the Work that can be used by
OWNER without causing substantial interference with CONTRACTOR's'performance of
the remainder of the Work, subject to the following:
13.12.1 OWNER, at any time may give written notice to CONTRACTOR of OWNER's
intent to use or occupy any part of the Work which OWNER believes to be
ready for its intended use and substantially complete. If CONTRACTOR
agrees, CONTRACTOR will certify to OWNER and ENGINEER that said part
of the Work is substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a
Certificate of Partial Substantial Completion for that part of the Work.
CONTRACTOR, at any time, may notify OWNER and ENGINEER in writing
that CONTRACTOR considers any such part of the Work ready for its intended
use and substantially complete and request ENGINEER to issue a Certificate of
.ti Partial Substantial Completion for that part of the Work. The provisions and
procedures set forth in Sections 13.10 and 13.11 shall govern inspections and
recommendations concerning partial substantial completion and certification
thereof.
13.12.2 OWNER may, at any time, give written notice to CONTRACTOR of OWNER's
intent to use or occupy any part of the Work which is not substantially complete.
Within a reasonable time thereafter OWNER, CONTRACTOR and ENGINEER
shall make an inspection of that part of the Work to determine its status of
completion and shall prepare a list of the items remaining to be completed or
corrected thereon before final payment. Upon failure of the parties to agree
upon such list, ENGINEER will promptly finalize the list and deliver same to
OWNER and CONTRACTOR together with a written determination as to the
division of responsibilities pending final payment between OWNER and
CONTRACTOR with respect to security, operations, safety, maintenance,
utilities, insurance, warranties and guarantees for that part of the Work. Such
list and determination will become binding upon OWNER and CONTRACTOR
except as otherwise agreed in writing between them. During the period of

—i Application to OWNER for payment. Otherwise, ENGINEER will return the Application
to CONTRACTOR, indicating in writing the reasons for refusing to recommend Final
Payment, in which case CONTRACTOR shall make the necessary corrections and
resubmit the Application. If the Application and accompanying documentation are
approved by OWNER as to form and substance, OWNER shall pay CONTRACTOR the
amount recommended by ENGINEER.
13.16 Delayed Final Completion. 'If, through no fault of CONTRACTOR, final completion of
the Work is significantly delayed and if ENGINEER so confirms, OWNER will, upon
receipt of CONTRACTOR's Final Application for Payment and recommendation of
ENGINEER, and without terminating the Agreement, make payment of the balance due
for that portion of the Work fully completed and accepted. If the remaining balance to be
held by OWNER for Work not fully completed or corrected is less than the retainage
stipulated in the Agreement, and if Bonds have been furnished as required in Section 5. 1,
the written consent of the Surety to the payment of the balance due for the portion of the
Work fully completed and accepted shall be submitted by CONTRACTOR to
ENGINEER with the Application for such payment. Such payment will be made under
the terms and conditions governing Final Payment, except that it shall not constitute a
waiver of claims.
13.17 CONTRACTOR's ContinuinObligations. Except as otherwise expressly provided to
the contrary by the Contract Documents, CONTRACTOR's duty to perform and complete
the Work and to fulfill other obligations in accordance with the Contract Documents shall
be absolute. Neither recommendation of any Progress Payment or Final Payment by
ENGINEER, nor approval or acceptance thereof by OWNER, nor the issuance of a
Certificate of Substantial Completion, nor any payment by OWNER to CONTRACTOR
under the Contract Documents, nor any use or occupancy of the Work or any part thereof
by OWNER, nor • any act of acceptance by OWNER nor any failure to do so, nor any
review and approval of a Shop Drawing or sample submission, nor any activities by
CONTRACTOR or OWNER in correction of Defective Work will constitute an
acceptance of Work not in accordance with the Contract Documents or a release or
waiver of CONTRACTOR's obligations under the Contract Documents or of OWNER's
rights and remedies thereunder.
13.18 Waiver of Claims By Final Payment. The making and acceptance of Final Payment shall
constitute a waiver of all claims by OWNER against CONTRACTOR and by
CONTRACTOR against OWNER except (i) claims previously made in writing by either
:y -
party and remaining unsettled as of the date of final payment, (ii) claims by OWNER
` attributable to Defective Work or prior corrective work, appearing after final inspection

Jr to produce a joint that will pass the destructive test. One passing joint test is
required per operator per contract. The method of joint testing shall be in
accordance with.section (b) or (c) below.
(b) SOLID WALL HDPE LINER PIPE. Solid Wall HDPE liner pipe joined
using butt fusion shall be in accordance with ASTM F 2620.
Solid wall HDPE liner pipe that is to have extrusion welded joints shall have
destructive testing performed on a test section of liner pipe of the same
material as the liner pipe being installed. The Contractor shall propose and
describe in the QCP a destructive test, such as but not limited to a bend strap
test, to demonstrate thatan operator can produce an extrusion welded joint
that will not fail. Once an extrusion welded joint is produced on a test section
that passes the destructive test, each subsequent joint fabricated that same day
by that operator will be visually inspected for acceptance. A destructive test
in accordance with the approved QCP shall be conducted on the test section
at the beginning of each day that solid wall HDPE liner pipe joining is being
done.
(c) PROFILE WALL HDPE LINER PIPE. Profile Wall HDPE liner pipe joined
using extrusion welding shall be in accordance with ASTM F 894. The
Contractor shall propose and describe in the QCP a destructive test, such as

Independent Accountant's Review Report
To the Stockholders
Municipal & Contractor Sealing Products, Inc.
Cincinnati, Ohio
We have reviewed the accompanying financial statements of Municipal & Contractor Sealing
Products, Inc. (an S corporation), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2015
and 2014, and the related statements of income, of changes in stockholders' equity and of cash
flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements. A review
includes primarily applying analytical procedures to management's financial data and making
inquiries of Company management. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit, the
objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this
includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the
preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement
whether due to fraud or error.
Accountant's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to conduct the review engagement in accordance with Statements on
Standards for Accounting and Review Services promulgated by the Accounting and Review
Services Committee of the AICPA. Those standards require us to perform procedures to obtain
limited assurance as a basis for reporting whether we are aware of any material modifications that
should be made to the financial statements for them to be in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We believe that the results of our
procedures provide a reasonable basis for our conclusion.
Accountant's Conclusion
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
accompanying financial statements in order for them to be in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Supplementary Information
The supplementary information included in the accompanying schedule of operating expenses is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements. The information is the representation of management. We have reviewed the
information and, based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should
be made to the information in order for it to be in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. We have not audited the information and, accordingly,
do not express an opinion on such information.

MUNICIPAL & CONTRACTOR SEALING PRODUCTS, INC.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015 AND 2014
1. Nature of operations and summary significant accounting policies
Nature of operations
Municipal & Contractor Sealing Products, Inc. (the Company), an Ohio corporation,
specializes in manhole rehabilition work. The Company provides their services to
customers mainly in Ohio and Kentucky.
Basis of accounting
The financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP). Preparation of
financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of
contingent matters at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the period. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates
include revenue recognition, uncertain tax positions and the useful lives of long-lived assets.
Management considers the estimates used to be reasonable. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include all cash balances and highly liquid investments with an
initial maturity of three months or less. The Company places its temporary cash investments
with high credit quality financial institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance limit.
Financial instruments
The Company's financial instruments are cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable, line of credit borrowings, and long-term debt. The recorded values of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and line of credit
borrowings approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded
value of long-term debt approximates its fair value, as interest approximates market rates.
Accounts receivable
The Company has elected to record bad debts using the direct write-off method. Generally
accepted accounting principles require that the allowance method be used to recognize bad
debts; however, the effect of using the direct write-off method is not materially different from
the results that would have been obtained under the allowance method. There were no
accounts receivable written off to bad debt expense in 2015 or 2014, respectively.
The Company grants credit to their customers located in the United States. All accounts
receivable are unsecured, but the Company performs periodic credit evaluations on its
customers.
See independent accountant's review report. 7
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first -in, first -out basis) or market (net realizable
value). Inventory consists of concrete, concrete additive mixture, rubber seal and epoxy
products.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-
line method over useful lives ranging from 5 to 39 years. When property and equipment are
retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from
the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations for the
respective period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred;
significant renewals and improvements are capitalized.
Depreciation expense was $65,901 and $54,294 for the years ended December 31, 2015
and 2014, respectively.
Impairment of property and equipment
The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment
whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be
recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and
eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than
the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the
carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in
performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the
manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand,
competition, and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, there was no
impairment at December 31, 2015 and 2014.
Revenue recognition
Normally, the Company delivers its products and services to its customers under short-term
agreements. For these short-term agreements, the Company recognizes revenue as the
products are delivered and the services are performed.
In cases where the contract is over an extended period of time, the Company recognizes
the revenue under the percentage of completion method. At December•31, 2015 and 2014,
the Company has no cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings (unbilled receivables)
and billing in excess of cost and estimated earnings (advanced billings) since the Company
has invoiced the customer for all work performed to date.
The Company did have $230,000 and $105,829 of retainage on contracts completed at
December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Income taxes
The Company, with the consent of its stockholders, has elected under the Internal Revenue
Code to be taxed as an S corporation. The stockholders of an S corporation are taxed on
their proportionate share of the Company's taxable income. Therefore, no provision or
liability for federal income taxes has been included in the financial statements. Certain
specific deductions and credits flow through the Company to its stockholders.
See independent accountant's review report. 8
Accountina for uncertaintv in income taxes
The Company recognizes tax liabilities, when, despite the Company's belief that its tax
return positions are supportable, the Company believes that certain positions may not be
fully sustained upon review by tax authorities. Interest and penalties, if any, related to
accrued liabilities for potential tax assessments are included in income tax expense.
The Company's income tax returns for the most recent three years remain subject to tax
authority examination. At December 31, 2015 and 2014, there were no liabilities related to
uncertain tax positions.
New accounting pronouncements
In March 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2014-07,
"Applying Variable Interest Entities Guidance to Common Control Leasing Arrangements
(Topic 810)". This guidance permits private company lessees to elect an alternative to not
apply VIE guidance to a lessor entity if (a) -the private company and lessee and the lessor
entity are under common control, (b) the private company lessee has a lease agreement
with the lessor entity, (c) substantially all ' of the activities between the private company
lessee and the lessor are related to leasing activities, and (d) the principal amount of the
debt at inception does not exceed the value of the asset lease by the private company
lessee. The Company elected to adopt this alternative. See Note 6 for further explanation.
In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic
606)". This guidance outlines a single comprehensive model for accounting for revenue
from contracts with customers, and is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2018 for nonpublic entities. Unless the effective date is extended, the
Company will be required to adopt 'the standard January 1, 2019. Furthermore, the
Company is evaluating the impact, if any, that the standard will have on the financial
statements.
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases (Topic 842)". This ASU increases
the transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and
lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing
arrangements. The update is effective for nonpublic entities with fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 2019. Unless the effective date is extended, the Company will be required to
adopt the standard January 1, 2020. Furthermore, the Company is evaluating the impact, if
any, that the standard will have on the financial statements.
2. Borrowing under a revolving line of credit
The Company has available a revolving line of credit with a bank for a maximum of
$600,000. The line of credit expires March 25, 2016, unless extended. Borrowings under
the line of credit bear interest at the prime rate plus 0.25% (3.50% at December 31, 2015).
Interest at December 31, 2014 was charged at the prime rate of 3.25%. All borrowings are
collateralized by substantially all assets of the Company. The outstanding balance on the
line of credit was $306,762 and $221,894 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
See independent accountant's review report.
