account of his insolvency, or if he or any of his subcontractors
should violate any of the provisions of the ..Contract, the City may,
serve written notice upon him and his surety of its intention to ter-
minate the Contract, such notice to contain the reasons for such in-
tention to terminate the Contract, and, unless within ten days after
serving of such notice, such violation shall cease and satisfactory
arrangements for correction thereof be made, the Contract shall, upon
the expiration of said ten days, cease and terminate. In the event of
any such termination, the City shall immediately serve written notice
thereof upon the surety and the Contractor, and the surety shall have
the right to take over and perform the Contract; provided, however,
that, if the surety within fifteen days after the serving upon it of
notice of termination does not give the City written notice of its
intention to take over and perform the Contract, or does not commence
performance thereof within thirty days from the date of the serving of

occasioned by the City thereby, and in such event the City may, with-

APPLICATION THEREOF. In addition to the amount which the City may
retain under Paragraph 21 of this Contract until the final completion

in its judgment may be necessary to pay just claims against the Con-
tractor or any subcontractors for labor and services rendered and
materials furnished in and about the work. The City may apply such
withheld amount or amounts to the payment of such claims in its dis-
cretion. In so doing, the City shall be deemed the agent of the Con-
tractor, and any payment so made by the City shall be considered as a
payment made under the Contract by the City to the Contractor, and the
City shall not be liable to the Contractor for any such payment made
in good faith. Such payment may be made without prior judicial deter-
mination of the claim or claims.

other under the Contract shall be in writing, and shall be dated and

municated by him to the party giving the notice, postage prepaid and

patent or proprietary name, or by name of manufacturer, such Spec-
ifications must be met by Contractor, unless the City agrees in
writing to some other material, process or article offered by Con-
tractor which is equal in all respects to the one specified.

month, by the Contractor, but the City will retain ten percent (10%)
of the amount of each of said estimates until the expiration of
thirty-five (35) days from the date of recording by the City of notice
of acceptance of completion of all work covered by this Contract, if
such notice be recorded within ten days after the acceptance of
completion of such Contract as evidenced by resolution of its
governing body; or, if such notice be not so recorded within ten days,
until the expiration of ninety-five (95) days after the acceptance of

certificates. In event of the failure of the City's representative to
furnish and deliver said certificates or any of them, or in lieu
thereof, the writing aforesaid, within ten (10) days after the times
aforesaid, and after written demand has been made upon him for the
same, the Contractor may file demand with the City, and, in event said
certificates are not furnished within ten (10) days thereafter, the
same shall become due and payable.
In case the City's representative delivers the writing aforesaid,
in lieu of the certificates, then a compliance by the Contractor with
the requirements of said writing shall entitled the Contractor to the
certificates.
. The payment of progress payments by the City shall not be cons-
trued as an absolute acceptance of the work done up to the time of
such payments, but the entire work is to be subjected to the inspec-
tion and approval of the City, and subject to whatever inspection and
Page 9
approval may be required by law.

sible, as between the parties to this Contract only, for the removal,

cated on the site of construction, but only if such public utilities
are not identified by the City in the Plans and Specifications made a
part of the invitation for bids. The City shall compensate the Con-
tractor for costs incurred in relocating or repairing damage to util-
ity facilities not indicated in the Plans and Specifications, other
than service laterals when the presence of such utilities on the con-
struction site can be inferred from the presence of such visible fa-
cilities as buildings, and meters and junction boxes on, or adjacent
to, the copstruction site. The Contractor shall not be assessed li-
quidated damages for delay in completion of the Contract projebt, as
provided in Paragraph 27 below, when such delay is caused by the
failure of the City, or other public utility, to provide for the re-
moval or relocation of the existing utility facilities. If the Con-
tractor while performing the Contract discovers utility facilities not
identified by the City in the Contract Plans and Specifications, the
service laterals as hereinabove described, he shall immediately notify
the City in writing.

shall not be responsible for the cost of repairing or restoring damage

shall, if the insurance premium is a separate bid item, obtain the
insurance to indemnify the City for any damage to the work caused by
an act of God. "Acts of God" shall include only the following occur-
rences or conditions and effects: earthquakes and tidal waves, when
such occurrences or conditions and effects have been proclaimed a
disaster or state of emergency by the Governor of the State of Cali-
fornia or by the President of the United States, or were of a mag-
nitude at the site of the work sufficient to have caused a proclama-
tion of disaster or state of emergency having occurred in a populated
area. Subject to the foregoing, the City shall not, in any way or
manner, be answerable'or suffer loss, damage, expense or liability for
any loss or damage that may happen to said building, work, or equip-
ment or any part thereof, or in, on, or about the same during its
construction and before acceptance.

antees the first-class quality of all workmanship and of all mater-
ials, apparatus, and equipment used or installed by him or by any
subcontractor or supplier in the project which is the subject of this
Contract, unless a lesser quality is expressly authorized in the Plans
and Specifications, in which event the Contractor unqualifiedly guar-
antees such lesser quality; and that the work as performed by the
Contractor will conform with the Plans and Specifications or any
written authorized deviations therefrom. In case of any defect in
work, materials, apparatus or equipment, whether latent or patent,
revealed to the City within one (1) year of the date of acceptance of
completion of this Contract by the City, the Contractor will forthwith
remedy such defect or defects without cost to the City.

($50.00), for each and every day during which said work shall remain
uncompleted beyond such time for completion or unlawful extension
thereof, which sum shall be presumed to be the amount of damage
thereby sustained by the City since it would be impracticable or
extremely difficult to fix the actual damage; and the amount of
liquidated damages may be deducted by the City from moneys due the
Contractor hereunder, or his assigns and successors at the time of
completion, and the Contractor hereunder, or his assigns and
successors at the time ;of- completion, and his sureties shall be.liable
