Page 25 of 53 5-2-25 24.4. It is the CMAR’s responsibility to meet the required construction completion dates, as extended by the Owner in accordance with the Contract. As an inducement to the CMAR to meet the required substantial completion date for the Project, the Owner will include in the Total Construction Budget an Early Completion Bonus Fund amount of one percent (1.0%) of the actual Project GMP, which shall be payable to the CMAR as an Early Completion Bonus if the Project is completed prior to the substantial completion date, as extended in accordance with this Contract and further provided that the Project is completed under budget and so long as including payment of the Early Completion Bonus Fund does not result in an amount that exceeds the Total Construction Budget. This Early Completion Bonus, if earned, will be included in the final payment to the CMAR. If the CMAR decides that any action must be taken in order to meet its contractual responsibility to complete the Project on time or to mitigate liquidated damages payable to the Owner, including for example and without limitation forcing Subcontractors to work overtime, increase labor forces or staffing, or work out of sequence, then the CMAR may, upon written notice to the Owner, waive its right to the Early Completion Bonus. Upon notice that the CMAR waives its right to the Early Completion Bonus, the Owner shall make the funds budgeted for the Early Completion Bonus available to the CMAR to pay the actual costs of such action as a Cost of the Work. The CMAR will enforce all rights and remedies that it has against any and all Subcontractors that are responsible for the failure to complete the Project within the schedule, and reimburse the Owner for the sums contributed under this paragraph to the extent the CMAR is able to recover those costs from those Subcontractors. If the Project is not substantially complete by the substantial completion date as extended, the Early Completion Bonus shall be deemed automatically waived without further notice, and the funds shall be made available to take action to maintain the Project on schedule. Once the funds budgeted for the Early Completion Bonus are exhausted, all costs associated with any action taken to stay within the completion schedule are the CMAR’s responsibility within the GMP. If the CMAR finds that the schedule is likely to be impacted by an action or inaction on the part of the Owner, the CMAR must review the situation with the Owner in a timely manner, and if necessary, to obtain a change order amendment for such Work prior to taking any action which has a time and/or cost impact. All change orders will be settled in full. No caveats for later settlement of time extensions or delays will be accepted. 24.5. Request for extension of time shall be made in writing within ten (10) days following the event that is the cause of delay. In case of continuing cause for delay, the CMAR shall notify the Project Designer of the delay within 20 days of the beginning of the delay and only one claim is necessary. Failure to make a timely claim will constitute a waiver of said claim for extensions of time or for monetary compensation. 24.6. The CMAR shall notify its surety in writing of each extension of time granted. 24.7. The schedule for all responses by the Project Designer to submittals by the CMAR shall be part of the Project schedule, as amended from time to time in accordance with the Contract. No request for a time extension shall be allowed on account of failure of the Project Designer to process any type of submittals, furnish drawings, or provide instructions unless and until the CMAR provides written notice of the request and processes it in accordance with paragraphs 24.4 and 24.5. 24.8. Should the CMAR fail to bring the Project to substantial completion within the time prescribed by the schedule that is established at the time the final GMP is accepted (or such later date as may result from extension of time granted by the Owner), the CMAR shall be liable to the Owner for delay damages as set forth herein. The CMAR acknowledges that delays will damage the Owner, but also acknowledges that proof of such damages would be difficult and costly for both parties, and that the injury to the Owner which could result from a failure of the CMAR to complete on schedule is uncertain and cannot be computed with exact precision. In order to liquidate in advance the delay damages that the Owner will be entitled to recover from the CMAR in the event of unexcused delays in the completion of the Project, the CMAR agrees that it will pay, and that the Owner may retain from the funds otherwise to be paid to the CMAR, the following liquidated damages, which sums are agreed upon as a reasonable and proper measure of damages which the Owner will sustain by failure of the CMAR to complete Work within the time stipulated: Docusign Envelope ID: 5A9E3BC2-EAE1-4C35-82D9-B4D6A375FA78
