Owner shall retain <br />five percent (5%). <br />1. Upon Owner’s Representative’s certification that ninety percent (90%) of <br />the Work has been satisfactorily completed retainage may be discontinued. <br />Retainage may be discontinued, at Owner’s Discretion, so long as work <br />continues to be completed satisfactorily and on schedule. <br />iii.

Owner may withhold the accompanying payment without penalty <br />until such time as Contractor cures the breach. <br />i. Should Contractor or its representatives fail to cure the breach within ten (10) days, <br />or fail to reasonably agree to such modified schedule, Owner may immediately <br />terminate this Agreement in writing, without penalty or incurring further obligation <br />to Contractor. <br />ii. This section shall not be interpreted to limit the definition of breach to the failure to <br />perform the Work related to a Request for Payment. <br />c. The Contractor has included in the Contract Price and shall pay all taxes assessed by any <br />authority on the Work or the labor and materials used therein.
