Extended <br />warranties shall be specified in the Construction Documents or specific written instructions from <br />the Owner. All such extended warranties shall be provided by a Subcontractor or manufacturer to <br />Owner.

ROYALTIES, LICENSES AND PATENTS <br /> <br />15.1. It is the intention of the Contract Documents that the Work covered herein will not constitute in <br />any way infringement of any patent whatsoever unless the fact of such patent is clearly evidenced <br />herein. The CMAR shall protect and save harmless the Owner against suit on account of alleged or <br />actual infringement but only if CMAR knew that the required design, process, or product was an <br />infringement of a copyright or a patent, and the CMAR failed to promptly furnish such information <br />to the Owner. The CMAR shall pay all royalties and/or license fees required on account of patented <br />articles or processes, whether the patent rights are evidenced hereinafter. <br /> <br />16. PERMITS, INSPECTIONS, FEES, REGULATIONS <br /> <br />16.1.

If the CMAR observes that the drawings <br />and specifications are at variance therewith, it shall promptly notify the Project Designer and <br />Owner in writing. Any necessary changes required after contract award shall be made by change <br />order. If the CMAR performs any Work knowing it to be contrary to such laws, ordinances, codes, <br />rules and regulations, and without such notice to the Project Designer and Owner, it shall bear all <br />cost arising there from. Additional legal requirements implemented after bidding will be subject to <br />equitable adjustments to the GMP. <br /> <br />16.2. All Work under the CMAR Contract shall conform to the North Carolina State Building Code and <br />other State, local, and national codes as are applicable.
