LICENSE CLASSIFICATION In accordance with Section 3300 of the Public Contract Code, the City has determined that the Contractor shall have a Class B (#926654) License at the time it submits its bid to the City and at all times it is performing the Work. 2. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES If Contractor fails to complete the Work within the Contract Time, the City will sustain damage. The actual occurrence of damages and the actual amount of the damages which the City would suffer if the Work were not completed within the Contract Time would be impracticable and extremely difficult to determine. Damages the City would suffer in the event of delay include, but are not limited to, loss of the use of the Work, costs of administration, inspection, supervision and the loss suffered by the public within the City. Accordingly, the parties agree that the amount herein set forth is a reasonable estimate of the damages which the City shall incur upon failure of the Contractor to complete the Work within the Contract Time: Five Hundred Dollars per day ($500.00/Day), for each calendar day by which completion of the Work is delayed beyond the Contract Time. Contractor agrees to pay such liquidated damages as herein provided, and in case the same are not paid, agrees that the City may deduct the amount thereof from any monies due or that may become due to the Contractor under the Contract. Contractor will not be assessed with liquidated damages or the cost of engineering and inspection during the delay in the completion of the Work caused by acts of God or of the public enemy, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes, freight embargoes, and unusually severe weather or delays of subcontractors due to such causes, provided that the Contractor shall within five (5) days from the beginning of any such delay notify the Administrator, in writing, of the causes of delay. The Administrator shall ascertain the facts and the extent of delay, and the Administrator’s findings thereon shall be final and conclusive. 3. COOPERATION AND CARE A. Should construction be under way by the City, other agencies or other contractors within or adjacent to the limits of the work specified or should work of any other nature be under way by other forces within or adjacent to said limits, the Contractor shall cooperate with all such other contractors or other forces to the end that any delay or hindrance to their work will be avoided. The City reserves the right to perform other or Attachment A – Library Book Drop Overhang Contract Exhibit C -- Page 2 of 2 additional work at or near the site (including material sources) at any time, by the use of other forces. B. Until the final acceptance of the contract, the Contractor shall have the charge and care of the Work and of the materials to be used therein, including materials for which partial payment has been received. The City shall not be held responsible for the care or protection of any material or parts of the Work prior to final acceptance, except as expressly provided in the Special Provisions. 4. PROGRESS OF THE WORK A. Hours of work - Overtime and holidays. The Contractor shall perform all work during the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday unless otherwise specified in the Special Provisions or authorized by the City in writing. If the Contractor wishes to work during any other hours or on weekends, written permission must be received from the City. The request must be received at least two (2) working days in advance of any work. No work will be allowed on legal holidays except in the case of an emergency. A listing of holidays observed by City is on file in the office of the City. If Contractor requests overtime work in which the City will incurs costs, Contractor shall be responsible for payment of the City’s costs incurred in connection with the overtime work. The City will invoice the Contractor at time and one half to cover the costs incurred. If Contractor does not pay the invoice within ten days, the City may deduct the amount billed from other payments due or to become due to Contractor under the Contract. B. The Administrator or Administrator’s designee shall have the authority to suspend the Work, wholly or in part, for such a period as the Administrator may deem necessary.

The City, its officers, officials, employees, and volunteers are to be covered as additional insureds with respect to liability arising out of automobiles owned, leased, hired or borrowed by or on behalf of the contractor; and with respect to liability arising out of work or operations performed by or on behalf of the Contractor including materials, parts or equipment furnished in connection with such work or operations.

Verification of Coverage Contractor shall furnish the City with original certificates and amendatory endorsements effecting coverage required by this clause. All certificates and endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. However, failure to obtain the required documents prior to the work beginning shall not waive the contractor’s Attachment A – Library Book Drop Overhang Contract Exhibit D -- Page 3 of 3 obligation to provide them. The City reserves the right to require complete, certified copies of all required insurance policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications, at any time. Waiver of Subrogation Contractor hereby grants to City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Contractor may acquire against the City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

Special Risks or Circumstances City reserves the right to modify these requirements, including limits, based on the nature of the risk, prior experience, insurer, coverage, or other special circumstances.
