The Developer has a contract with New Canaan Public Schools (hereinafter the “Owner” or “Host”).

As used in this Agreement, “Contractor” may be a contractor, installer, vendor and/or supplier.

In consideration of the mutual promises herein contained, the parties agree that during the term of this Agreement, Contractor will provide labor, services, materials and/or equipment (the “Work”) as described in the Contract Documents (defined below) on the real property described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Project Description”), and Developer will pay Contractor for the Work, in accordance with the procedures and subject to the obligations, terms, conditions and limitations contained in this Agreement. The parties further agree as follows:

1. WORK; SUBCONTRACTING.

(a) Contract Documents. The Work to be performed by Contractor is listed on Exhibit B attached hereto (collectively called the “Contract Documents”). The Contract Documents may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time pursuant to the Change Order process described in Article 4 below. Contractor will not enter into any subcontract with a subcontractor for any portion of the Work without the prior written consent of Developer to such subcontractor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). Contractor will provide Developer with a list of the names, addresses and contact information (i.e., contact name, phone and fax number, and e-mail address) of all subcontractors, suppliers and materialmen for each Project prior to the commencement of Work on such Project. Contractor shall require that all subcontracts and supply contracts contain a clause which requires the subcontractor, supplier or materialman under such contract to provide at least five (5) business days’ written notice to Contractor and Developer prior to filing any liens, charges, claims and judgments, security interests and encumbrances (“Liens”) against the real property described on Project Description, a Project, the Work and any structures comprising a Project or located on such real property. In the performance of the Work Contractor shall prepare, review, stamp with approval and submit all samples, shop drawings and product data as may be directed by Developer. Contractor shall not perform Work on the Project without approved submittals. Contractor’s submittal of shop drawings shall constitute a representation that Contractor has checked all relevant dimensions and other information in the drawings and specifications and that such shop drawings are accurate and consistent with the Contract Documents. Contractor shall maintain at the Project site one record copy of all drawings, specifications and change orders, which copy shall be in good order and marked currently to record all changes and selections made during construction. Upon final completion of the Work, these “as-built” drawings shall be delivered to Developer in duplicate and as a condition to final payment for the Work.

(b) The following conditions must be met prior to commencement of the Work, or Developer may elect to terminate this Agreement, provided all amounts owed or owing to Contractor under this Agreement as of the date of such election shall be paid: (i) electrical or structural capacity at the Project site are sufficient to accommodate the Project, (ii) no material change in site conditions unknown as of the date of Developer’s contract with Owner for the Project including but not limited to changes in law, labor conditions, presence of hazardous material, or other changes that would result in a material adverse effect to the electrical production or value, and (iii) all required governmental and utility approvals required to install the Project have been received.

(c) Subcontracting.

(i) Within ten (10) business days of the execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than five (5) days prior to Contractor’s mobilization and commencement of construction activities hereunder, Contractor shall deliver to Developer a list of all subcontractors, suppliers and materialmen that will perform or deliver any portion of the Work hereunder. Subcontractor shall not replace or substitute any subcontractor, supplier or developer set forth on the foregoing list without the prior written approval of Developer.

(ii) Contractor shall deliver executed copies of all written subcontracts, supplier and vendor agreements entered into by Contractor pursuant to this Section 1(c) within three (3) business days of the execution and delivery thereof.

(iii) Provisions Included in Subcontracts, Purchase orders and Other Contracts. Contractor shall include the provisions of this Section 1(c) in all its subcontracts, purchase orders and other contracts and agreements relative to Contractor’s Work. Contractor shall furnish proof of compliance with this Section 1(c) in a form satisfactory to Developer.

2. CONTRACT PRICE. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, Developer will pay Contractor for the Work (the “Contract Price”) pursuant to the Schedule of Values (herein so called) attached hereto as Exhibit C.

The Total Contract Price shall be $209,587 ($$0.70 per watt DC) subject to additions and deletions as provided in the Contract Documents. Non-open shop pricing: Contractor’s pricing is based on this being an open-shop Project and if prevailing wage is needed by the Developer for the Project for any reason (such as compliance with law or regulation, or for labor relations), then the Developer and Contractor shall enter into a Change Order to increase the Contract Price due to such prevailing wage requirement and to provide for an apportionment of such increased labor costs among the Schedule of Values and the Payment Schedule.

3. PAYMENT AND SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION

(a) Payment. Developer agrees, subject to the terms herein, to make payment to Contractor for the Work pursuant to the Schedule of Values and the Payment Schedule (the “Payment Schedule”) attached hereto as Exhibit D when (i) Developer receives from Contractor and approves a completed and correct Application for Payment in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “Contractor’s Application for Payment”), (ii) Developer confirms the completion of the portion of the Work relating to the Application for Payment, (iii) Developer has received Lien releases or waivers, to the extent required by Developer from Contractor and all potential Lien claimants (at any tier) involved in the performance of the Work in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L (the “Form of Waiver and Release of Lien Upon Partial Payment”), along with sufficient substantiation, in the form of lower-tier lien releases, cancelled checks, wire payment confirmations, or otherwise as may be reasonably requested by Developer, to evidence the completeness and timeliness of the satisfaction of all of Contractor’s payment obligations to its subcontractors and suppliers pursuant to this Agreement, (iv) Contractor provides Developer with an up-to-date list of all amounts, if any, due and unpaid to any subcontractor, supplier or materialman relating to the related Project and (v) Contractor satisfies any additional payment conditions set forth in this Agreement. Payments to Contractor will not be construed as acceptance of the Work or a waiver of any rights of Developer under this Agreement and will not relieve Contractor of any of its obligations hereunder. Invoice payment terms are forth in Payment Schedule. Developer may retain up to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the amount of Contractor’s compensation of any aspect of the Work Developer determines to be defective, for any claim for lien or payment or security interest caused or allowed by Contractor on the Project (or other property of Owner), or for any other potential claim. Acceptance of final payment by Contractor shall constitute full waiver and release by Contractor of all claims against Developer or Owner arising out of the Project. For avoidance of doubt, no Application for Payment shall be approved that does not include all relevant lower-tier subcontractor or vendor lien releases or waivers in the proportionate amount of the payment received or to have been received by the subcontractor or vendor from the immediately preceding payment period. Any allegation of non-payment by a subcontractor, of any tier, will be immediately reported to the project manager of Developer, along with sufficient information to permit Developer to authorize a remediation plan to address the non-payment.

(b) Substantial Completion. As used in the Payment Schedule and elsewhere in this Agreement, Substantial Completion and the term “substantially complete” will have the meaning defined in Article 17 below and as evidenced by a (“Certificate of Substantial Completion”) approved by Developer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F.

4. CHANGE ORDER. A Change Order (“Change Order”) will be issued to modify the Work, the Contract Documents, the Contract Price, the Schedule of Values, the Payment Schedule, and/or the Project Schedule only in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. A sample of the (“Request for Change Order”) form is attached hereto as Exhibit H. In the absence of complete and prompt agreement between Developer and Contractor on the terms of a Change Order, Developer may elect to direct Contractor, in writing, to proceed with the Work, as modified by Developer. Contractor will immediately comply with Developer’s direction to proceed with the Work, as modified, but Contractor will within ten (10) days of Contractor’s receipt of Developer’s written direction, or, in the case of a material change by Developer (Contractor identifying such materiality by written notice to Developer within ten (10) days of Contractor’s receipt of Developer’s written directive), Contractor will within fifteen (15) days of Contractor’s receipt of Developer’s written direction, submit to Developer a detailed proposal for a Change Order (“Change Order Proposal”) which will include the proposed adjustments to the Contract Price, the Project Schedule or any other provisions of this Agreement necessary to accomplish the Work, as modified by Developer. The failure of Contractor to submit a detailed Change Order Proposal within the time limit stated therefore, or within such additional time granted by Developer in writing, in its sole discretion, will be deemed a waiver of any claim for any modification to the Contract Price or the Payment Schedule arising out of Developer’s modification. Each Change Order Proposal must include an explanation of the impact to the Contract Price and Project Schedule (as defined in Article 6, below) of Developer’s modification. If Developer and Contractor cannot agree upon the terms of the Change Order within thirty (30) days of the Contractor’s delivery to Developer of the Change Order Proposal, either party may submit such dispute to binding arbitration pursuant to the terms of Article 13 of this Agreement. Payment for all work performed by Contractor that is not the subject of a Change Order approved by Developer or a Developer’s written direction to proceed, is subject to rejection by Developer (subject to the Dispute resolution procedures in Article 13). Contractor shall continue to proceed with the Work, as modified, in the event of a Dispute. Except as provided herein in respect to changes in Contractor’s work directed by Developer, in all other circumstances whereby Contractor desires to preserve the right to claim or recover an increase in the Contract Price, recover costs or damages or extension of the Project Schedule, Contractor shall, as a condition to such right, give Developer written notice thereof within ten (10) days after the first occurrence giving rise to such claim. The notice shall particularly set forth the event(s) or fact(s) supporting and giving rise to such claim, the cost thereof and the time extension requested, if any and shall include a Change Order Proposal. In no event shall Contractor prevail upon any monetary claim or request for extension of time in connection with any individual or cumulative changes, matters, circumstances or conditions previously addressed by a Change Order or modification executed between the parties. It is further expressly agreed that under no circumstances shall any failure or delay giving such notice be excused, and no reservation of rights to make or submit a claim at a later date shall be effective to preserve the claim if not timely and properly made in accordance with this article. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, Contractor shall be entitled to seek a Change Order under this Article 4 for its reasonably incurred and documented out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by Contractor as a direct result of a Force Majeure Event that lasts more than sixty (60) consecutive days by providing a Change Order Proposal to Developer. Contractor shall notify Developer as soon as is reasonably possible when a Force Majeure Event has occurred and is continuing for more than thirty (30) consecutive days. No change in the Work, the Contract Price, the Project Schedule, the Schedule of Values or the Payment Schedule shall be made unless specifically agreed to in writing by Developer through a Change Order as set forth in this Article 4 or as determined pursuant to Article 13. No such change shall be implied as a result of any other Change Order.

5. PAYMENTS BY CONTRACTOR – NO LIENS. Subject to the terms herein, Contractor will promptly pay in cash all costs of labor, materials, services and equipment used in the performance of the Work, and upon the request of Developer, Contractor will provide proof of such payment. Unless prohibited by law, if Developer has a reasonable basis to do so Developer may at any time make payments due to Contractor directly or by joint check, to any person or entity for obligations incurred by Contractor in connection with the performance of the Work, unless Contractor has first delivered written notice to Developer of a dispute with any such person or entity and has furnished security satisfactory to Developer insuring against claims therefrom. Any payment so made will be credited against sums due Contractor in the same manner as if such payment had been made directly to Contractor. ‘The provisions of this Article 5 are intended solely for the benefit of Developer and will not extend to the benefit of any third persons, or obligate Developer or its sureties in any way to any third party.

Provided that Developer shall have paid Contractor as required in this Agreement, Contractor shall keep the real property described on Project Description, each Project, the Work and any structures comprising a Project or located on such real property free from all Liens arising out of the performance of the Work by Contractor, any subcontractor, supplier or materialman of Contractor or such subcontractor, or any person working for, or through, Contractor or any such subcontractor under this Agreement, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Developer from, any such Liens. If Developer seeks indemnification by Contractor for any such Lien, Developer shall give Contractor prompt notice of any such Lien of which it has knowledge and cooperate with Contractor in obtaining the discharge of such Lien at Contractor’s expense; provided that Contractor shall promptly confirm in writing its obligation to indemnify Developer with respect to all costs and expenses with respect to such Lien. Contractor shall take prompt steps to discharge or bond over any such Lien filed against the real property described on Project Description, each Project, the Work and any structures comprising a Project or located on such real property by any subcontractor, supplier or materialmen based on a claim for payment in connection with the Work. If Contractor fails to bond over or discharge promptly any such Lien, Developer shall have the right, to the extent permitted by law and upon notifying Contractor in writing, to take any reasonable action to satisfy, defend, settle or otherwise remove such Lien at Contractor’s expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses. Developer shall have the right to deduct and offset, or otherwise recover, any expenses so incurred from any payment due, or which may become due, to Contractor under this Agreement. Contractor shall have the right to contest any such Lien and Developer shall not make payment to a subcontractor, supplier or materialman to discharge a Lien; provided that Contractor first must provide to the lienholder, a court or other third person, as applicable, a bond or other assurances of payment necessary to remove such Lien in accordance with applicable laws. Developer may demand, from time to time in its sole discretion, that Contractor provide a detailed listing of any and all potential Lien claimants (at all tiers) involved in the performance of the Work including, with respect to each such potential Lien claimant, the name, scope of work, sums paid to date, sums owed, and sums remaining to be paid. If a person or entity asserts or claims a right to Lien the real property described on Project Description, each Project, the Work and any structures comprising a Project or located on such real property or claims that Contractor did not pay such person or entity for materials and/or labor employed in connection with Contractor’s performance and/or provision of Work, Developer will, to the extent permitted by law, have a right to pay such claim, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, as necessary to obtain a release and discharge. However, prior to the filing of a Lien, Developer may not make such payment if Contractor has first delivered written notice to Developer of a dispute with any such person or entity, and has furnished security satisfactory to Developer insuring against claims there from. If Contractor fails to immediately pay to Developer the sum paid by Developer to such person or entity asserting the payment claim, Developer may, in addition to any other rights Developer may have, at law or in equity, withhold such sum from any payment due, or which may become due, to Contractor under this Agreement. If any such Lien or claim remains unsatisfied after Developer has paid the full Contract Price to Contractor, Contractor will refund to Developer all monies that Developer may be compelled to pay in discharging such Lien or claim, including all costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees which may be incurred.

6. STANDARD OF PERFORMANCE. Contractor will perform the Work as follows (collectively, “Contractor’s Standard of Performance”): (a) in a prompt, diligent, good and workmanlike manner, (b) in conformance with the time schedule attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Project Schedule”), and (c) in accordance with: (i) industry standards, (ii) any standards, conditions and/or practices set forth in the Contract Documents, (iii) any practices otherwise specified in writing by Developer to Contractor, (iv) applicable Governmental Requirements (as defined herein) and governmental standards, (v) all manufacturers’ most recent written recommendations and specifications for the installation of materials, (vi) jobsite rules of Developer, (vii) the specific plans, specifications and drawings contained in the Contract Documents including, without limitation, any amendments or alterations to them made by Developer, or with Developer’s consent, from time to time and (viii) the construction and project management requirements imposed by Developer and Owner/Host as set forth in Exhibit B. If there is a conflict between any of the standards, practices, plans, drawings, specifications, and schedules included in Contractor’s Standard of Performance, the more stringent or exacting among them will control.

Furthermore, Contractor will generally follow Good Utility Practices throughout the performance of the Work. “Good Utility Practices” means those practices and methods as they relate to the Work that are commonly used under similar circumstances in the United States to design, construct and operate solar electric power generation equipment and facilities lawfully, expeditiously and with safety. Good Utility Practices is not intended to be limited to the optimum practice, method or act to the exclusion of others, but rather a spectrum of practices, methods or acts expected to accomplish the performance of the Work in accordance with the terms hereof (including the requirements of the first sentence of this definition and the other performance standards set forth herein).

7. FAMILIARITY WITH PROJECT, DOCUMENTS AND GOVERNMENTAL REQUIREMENTS. Before Contractor commences the Work, Contractor will (a) inspect the Project, (b) familiarize itself with all plans, specifications and other documentation included within the Contract Documents and the Contractor’s Standard of Performance and (c) compare the Project against the Contract Documents and such other written documentation. Contractor’s commencement of the Work is an acknowledgment by Contractor that (i) Contractor has completed the three tasks described in the preceding sentence and (ii) the Project is safe for purposes of the Work to be undertaken and ready for the Work to commence and continue in accordance with the Contract Documents, and the Contractor’s Standard of Performance. Contractor’s commencement and continuation of the Work without objection is a continuing acknowledgment that the Project is safe for purpose of the Work being undertaken and ready for such performance of the Work. It is understood by the parties that Contractor is best able to evaluate the cost of the Work and that in arriving at the Contract Price, Contractor has not assumed the risk that unforeseen conditions or events may be encountered causing additional difficulty and expense not anticipated at the time the parties agreed upon the Contract Price. Contractor further represents that it is fully familiar with the requirements of any governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Work and is prepared to comply with all such requirements without additional compensation.

8. PROTECTION OF WORK AND PROJECT. Contractor will supervise, administer and protect the Work against loss or damage from any cause and will be responsible for all parts of the Work, temporary or permanent, finished or not, until the Work is finally completed and accepted by Developer. In addition, if the Work includes installation of materials or equipment furnished by anyone other than Contractor, Contractor must examine the items so provided and handle, store and install the items with the necessary skill and care to ensure a satisfactory and proper installation. Contractor will take reasonable precautions and maintain reasonable safeguards to protect against loss or damage to persons or property (including the work of other contractors) arising out of Contractor’s activities at or about the Project and loss or damage to the Work as a result of weather conditions. Except to the extent that such loss or damage is a result of the willful misconduct or negligent actions of Developer, its inspectors, invitees, or agents (other than Contractor), Contractor will bear and be liable for, and Developer will not be responsible for, any loss, theft or damage to the Work (until after final completion and acceptance of such Work by Developer) and/or any material, equipment or miscellaneous items or services used in the Work or placed at the Project by Contractor, or any of its subcontractors, employees, vendors or agents, including, but not limited to, loss or damage due to theft, trespass or vandalism before final completion of the Work. The acceptance of the Work or any portion of the Work by Developer will not constitute a waiver or release of any rights of Developer against Contractor under this Agreement, at law or in equity including, without limitation, liability for defective, deficient or non-conforming Work. Contractor is responsible for the storage and safeguard of its own materials, tools and equipment and those of its subcontractors, employees, vendors or agents. Contractor acknowledges that the Work may be performed at a location where Owner has ongoing business operations. Therefore, Contractor shall follow the reasonable requirements of Owner, its construction manager (if any) and the property manager, and shall maintain good order among its agents and employees performing the Work, and shall comply with all rules and requirements of Owner concerning the Project site, including safety requirements, regulatory compliance and any limitations on hours of operation, staging and storage areas, construction parking, use and shutdown or interruption to the Project site facilities and/or utilities, temporary signage and ingress and egress to occupied tenant areas or common areas. If the Work is being performed at a location where there are ongoing business operations, Contractor shall, prior to commencement of construction, submit for Developer’s approval a site management plan that provides for staging, storage, access and similar matters at the Project site. Contractor shall coordinate its Work with that of other contractors working at the Project site in order to avoid any delay of schedule or any interference or conflict with any other’s work. If proper execution of any part of the Work depends upon any construction by Developer or a separate contractor, Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly report to Developer any apparent discrepancies or defects in the work of other contractors. Failure of Contractor to report such discrepancies or defects shall constitute an acknowledgement that Developer’s or the separate contractor’s completed or partially completed construction is fit and proper to receive Contractor’s Work. At Developer’s request, Contractor shall uncover any part of the Work for inspection by Developer. If the uncovered Work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, the reasonable cost of uncovering and re-covering shall be paid by Developer; otherwise, all costs of uncovering, repair, replacement and re-covering shall be borne by Contractor.

(b) Developer’s Indemnity. Developer agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless Contractor, its permitted successors and assigns and their respective directors, officers, members, shareholders and employees (collectively, the “Contractor Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all Claims incurred by the Contractor Indemnified Parties to the extent arising from or out any injury to or death of any person or loss or damage to property of any person to the extent arising out of Developer’s negligence or willful misconduct.

(c) Indemnification Procedure.

(i) Whenever any claim arises for indemnification under this Agreement, the person who has the right to be indemnified (the “Indemnified Party”) shall notify the person who has the indemnification obligation (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing as soon as practicable (but in any event prior to the time by which the interest of the Indemnifying Party will be materially prejudiced as a result of its failure to have received such notice) after the Indemnified Party has knowledge of the facts constituting the basis for such claim (the “Notice of Claim”). Such Notice of Claim shall specify all facts known to the Indemnified Party giving rise to such indemnification right and the amount or an assessment of the amount of the liability arising there from.

(ii) If the facts giving rise to any such indemnification shall involve any actual or threatened claim or demand by any third party (including an inquiry or audit by any governmental authority with respect to any period in whole or in part prior to the date of this Agreement) against the Indemnified Party or any possible claim or demand by the Indemnified Party against any such third party, the Indemnifying Party shall (without prejudice to the right of the Indemnified Party to participate at its expense through counsel of its own choosing) defend such claim in the name of the Indemnified Party at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and through counsel of its own choosing.

Until the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a claim of indemnification arising out of a third party claim, the Indemnified Party may defend against the third party claim in any manner it may deem reasonably appropriate; provided that in no event shall the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to the third party claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (not to be unreasonably withheld) unless the Indemnifying Party has consistently and persistently refused to undertake the Indemnification through the litigation process. The entry of a consent judgment or settlement under the foregoing circumstances shall not relieve Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder.

(iv) At the time that the Indemnifying Party makes any indemnity payment under this Agreement, the indemnification payment shall be adjusted such that the indemnification payment, will result in the Indemnified Party receiving an amount equal to such indemnity payment, after taking into account (i) all national, state, and local income taxes that are actually payable by the Indemnified Party with respect to the receipt of such indemnity payment, and (ii) all national, state, and local income tax deductions allowable to the Indemnified Party for any items of loss and deduction for which the Indemnified Party is being indemnified.

(v) Contractor’s liability for indemnification under this Article 11 is in addition to any liability Contractor may have for breach by Contractor of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstances will the required insurance in Article 10 be construed to limit Contractor’s defense and/or indemnification obligation or other liability hereunder.

(vi) Contractor’s obligation to indemnify and defend under this Article 11 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.

(vii) If the provisions of this Article 11 violate the statutory or common law of the applicable state or governing authority, this Article 11 will not be stricken or found to be void in its entirety. Rather, Contractor’s defense and indemnification obligations will apply to the fullest extent permitted by such applicable law.

12. WARRANTY. Manufacturers’ warranties with all rights associated therewith will be assigned by Contractor to Developer (or its designee) for solar panels, inverters, the racking system, the data acquisition system (DAS) and any other equipment installed as part of the Work (the “Manufacturers’ Warranties”) that results in a completed solar power generating system (the “System”). In addition to the Manufacturers’ Warranties, Contractor unconditionally warrants (the “System Warranty”) that the Work: (a) conforms to the specifications contained in the Contract Documents, (b) adheres to Contractor’s Standard of Performance, (c) complies with all Governmental Requirements, (d) was performed without defects in workmanship or materials, (e) consists of new materials, unless otherwise specified and (f) at Substantial Completion results in a completed System that is functional as a solar power generating system serving the Project location. The System Warranty is for the benefit of Developer and Owner and their respective successors and assigns for a period of five (5) years from the date that all Work is completed by Contractor, unless some other period of time is designated in the Contract Documents. The System Warranty will specifically extend for the period of time it is in effect to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, any purchaser of any structure included in a Project, and to the extent applicable, any municipal corporation, jurisdiction, agency or association that will ultimately own and/or govern any portion of a Project (each, a “Subsequent Developer”). In addition to all other remedies that Developer has under Article 15(b) herein, if demand is made upon Contractor to perform under the System Warranty within the applicable warranty period for an item covered by the System Warranty as provided in this Article 12, Contractor at its sole cost and expense will expeditiously repair or replace any defective Work, whether existing because of faulty workmanship, defective equipment or materials or from any other reason resulting from Contractor’s activities, and repair or replace any damage to the work of others caused by such defective Work or repair or replacement of such defective Work. Developer’s determination of defective workmanship or materials will be in Developer’s sole but reasonable discretion and will control for the purposes of this Agreement. The System Warranty in this Article 12 is independent from all other obligations of Contractor under this Agreement including, without limitation, all indemnification provisions, and will apply whether or not required by any other provision of this Agreement. Contractor’s obligations under this Article 12 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. This warranty obligation is cumulative and shall not: (i) serve to exclude other remedies of Developer or Owner, at law or in equity; or (ii) change applicable statutes of limitation. Developer may elect, in its sole discretion, to accept defective Work and take a credit against the Contract Price in an amount that reasonably compensates Developer for the diminution in value and utility of the Project. Contractor is not and shall not be liable with respect to, and the System Warranty shall not be applicable to, any Defect, breach or nonconformity to the extent that such Defect, breach or nonconformity is due to: (a) normal wear and tear; or (b) damage or defect to the extent caused by failure of Developer or Owner to operate or maintain the system in accordance with manufacturer’s operating manuals or prudent industry practice or by Developer’s or Owner’s abuse or misuse of the System; or (c) damage to the extent caused by third party external causes, such as theft, vandalism or severe weather events; or (d) or any damage, condition or defect covered by any of the Manufacturers’ Warranties. For purposes hereof, “Defect” means deviations from, breaches of or failures of the System Warranty.

13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

(a) Resolution by the Parties. The parties shall negotiate in good faith and attempt to resolve any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Agreement or the breach, interpretation, termination or validity thereof (a “Dispute”) within thirty (30) days after the date that a party gives written notice of such Dispute to the other party. In the event that the parties are unable to reach agreement within such thirty (30) day period (or such longer period as the parties may agree in writing) then either party may refer the matter to arbitration in accordance with Article 13(b); provided, however, that if the Dispute involves the amount of an invoice and after ten (10) days of mutual discussion either party believes that further discussion will fail to resolve the Dispute to its satisfaction, such party may immediately refer the matter to arbitration in accordance with Article 13(b), or litigation, at the sole election of Developer.

(b) Developer’s Right to Select Forum. Developer shall have the sole and exclusive right to determine whether any Dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or breach thereof, shall be submitted to a court of law or settled by binding arbitration between the parties. The venue of such court action or arbitration proceeding shall be in the county in which the Project is located, or in New York, New York, as Developer in its sole discretion may elect to the exclusion of all other forums. Any arbitration proceeding shall be in accordance with the Construction Industry Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in effect on the date that a party gives notice of its demand for arbitration under this Article 13(b). Contractor must make a written request to Developer to determine whether the dispute shall be submitted to a court or to arbitration. Developer shall respond to Contractor’s request within ten (10) business days after receipt thereof. Developer’s response shall identify whether the matter will be submitted to a court or to arbitration and Contractor shall submit itself to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the court or arbitration proceeding selected by Developer, to the exclusion of all other forums and jurisdictions. In the event of arbitration, the parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator with significant contract resolution experience and experience in the contemporary solar photovoltaic power industry and an understanding of photovoltaic systems. If the parties cannot agree on a single neutral arbitrator within fifteen (15) Business Days after the written demand for arbitration is provided, then the arbitrator shall be selected under the AAA rules. Following selection of the arbitrator, the parties may then commence with and engage in discovery in connection with the arbitration as provided by New York law and shall be entitled to submit expert testimony or written documentation in such arbitration proceeding. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon Contractor and Developer and shall be set forth in a reasoned opinion, and award may be enforced thereon by Contractor or Developer in a court of competent jurisdiction. Any award of the arbitrator shall include interest from the date of any damages incurred for breach or other violation of this Agreement and from the date of the award until paid in full. Contractor and Developer shall each bear the cost of preparing and presenting its own case; provided, however, that the parties agree that the prevailing party in such arbitration shall be awarded its reasonable attorney’s fees, expert fees, expenses and costs incurred in connection with the Dispute. The cost of the arbitration, however, including the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, shall initially be shared equally by Contractor and Developer, subject to reimbursement of such arbitration costs and attorney’s fees and costs to the prevailing party. The arbitrator shall be instructed to establish procedures such that a decision can be rendered within sixty (60) calendar days of the appointment of the arbitrator. In no event shall the arbitrator have the power to award any damages precluded by this Agreement, which Agreement shall be binding upon the arbitrator.

(c) Exceptions to Arbitration Obligation. Neither the obligation to arbitrate nor the pre-arbitration procedures of Article 13(a) shall be binding upon any party with respect to (a) requests for preliminary injunctions, temporary restraining orders, specific performance, or other equitable relief, or other procedures in a court of competent jurisdiction to obtain interim relief when deemed necessary by such court to preserve the status quo or prevent irreparable injury pending resolution by arbitration of the actual Dispute or (b) actions to collect payments not subject to a bona fide Dispute or (c) claims permitted hereunder against third parties.

(d) Arbitrator Confidentiality Obligation. The parties shall ensure that any arbitrator appointed to act under this Article will agree to be bound by any confidentiality provisions of this Agreement and any information obtained during the course of the arbitration proceedings.

14. TERMINATION OF WORK OR AGREEMENT BY DEVELOPER.

(a) Termination. Developer may terminate Contractor’s right to perform all or any portion of the Work or this entire Agreement (in which case Contractor’s right to perform all Work will terminate), upon written notice at any time without just cause (each, a “Termination”). Upon receipt of notice of Termination from Developer (“Termination Notice”), unless directed otherwise, Contractor will immediately cease performance of the terminated portion of the Work, placement of orders for materials, equipment, machinery and supplies in connection therewith and will, if requested, make every reasonable effort to procure cancellation of all existing orders for contracts upon terms satisfactory to Developer. Contractor will do only such Work as directed by Developer in writing or as may be necessary to preserve and protect that portion of the Work which has been incorporated into the Project and to protect materials, supplies and equipment at or about such Project or in transit thereto, unless otherwise instructed by Developer.

(b) Compensation. Upon Termination, the obligations of the parties to continue performance as to the terminated portion of the Work (if all or any portion of the Work is being terminated), or under this Agreement (if this Agreement is being terminated), will cease and Contractor will be entitled to receive, as its exclusive remedy: (i) compensation for the Work performed up to the time of delivery of the Termination Notice and such further Work (if any) as has been directed by Developer and/or is necessary to preserve and protect Work or materials under Article 14(a) above (the percentage of completion to be reasonably determined by Developer) with the Contract Price being prorated accordingly, (ii) reimbursement for the actual cost of materials purchased by Contractor for the Work, as evidenced by Contractor’s supplier’s invoice, provided the materials are delivered to Developer, and (iii) payment for any other bona fide order evidenced in writing of fabricated components or structures ordered pursuant to the Contract Documents prior to Contractor’s receipt of the Termination Notice, if the orders cannot with reasonable effort be canceled, so long as any benefits accruing from such items are assigned to Developer. Payment to Contractor will be made in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Article 3 hereof, with final payment being made only after expiration of the period allowed by law for the filing of any claims to enforce mechanics liens arising out of the Work, without any claims having been filed or after such claims are resolved. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, neither Termination of any portion of the Work nor Termination of all or any portion of this Agreement will prejudice any claim of either party arising before such Termination, relieve either party from any liability arising prior to such Termination, relieve the parties’ obligation to submit compensation disputes and other Disputes to resolution under Article 13, affect Contractor’s warranty obligations for the portion of the Work performed prior to Termination, relieve Contractor of its duty to correct any defective Work or affect either party’s obligations to indemnify, defend and hold the other party harmless as required by this Agreement.

15. DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.

(a) Default. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Default” will mean any breach or default of the terms of this Agreement by Contractor including, without limitation, if (i) Contractor fails to timely and diligently proceed with the Work; (ii) Contractor fails to acquire and/or maintain the Required Insurance; (iii) Contractor fails to make or ensure payment to subcontractors or suppliers (at all tiers) for labor, materials, services or equipment employed by Contractor in connection with performance of the Work; (iv) Contractor fails to perform the Work in accordance with Contractor’s Standard of Performance, the Governmental Requirements, the Contract Documents, or otherwise performs the Work in an unsatisfactory or defective manner; (v) Contractor fails to furnish the necessary skilled labor, materials, equipment or services to meet the construction needs in accordance with the Contract Documents; (vi) Contractor files a petition or a petition is filed against Contractor under any chapter or section of the federal Bankruptcy Code, as amended, or under any similar law, or Contractor is adjudged bankrupt or insolvent (a “Bankruptcy Event”); (vii) Contractor makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or a receiver is appointed on account of Contractor’s insolvency (an “Insolvency Event”), (viii) a breach by Contractor of any of the Other Agreements (as defined herein); or (ix) failure to achieve Substantial Completion or Final Completion by the dates set forth on Project Schedule hereto. Developer may occupy and use any portion of the Work, which has been partially or fully performed by Contractor, or on its behalf, and such occupancy or use shall not constitute an acceptance of the Work or a waiver of any defects in the Work or of any breach or default by Contractor of any of the provisions of this Agreement. A breach or default of the terms of this Agreement by Developer shall include (I) non-payment of any amount due to Contractor when due (subject to any cure period); (II) a Bankruptcy Event occurs regarding Developer; (III) an Insolvency Event occurs regarding Developer; or (IV) a breach of Developer’s non-monetary obligations under this Agreement (subject to notice and reasonable opportunity to cure).

(b) Remedies Upon Default. If Developer reasonably determines that a Default has occurred, then, in addition to all remedies available at law or in equity, Developer will be entitled to, immediately, with written notice to Contractor of a Default and Contractor’s failure to begin the cure of said Default within 72 hours of receipt of such notice and continually pursue such cure until such cure is completed (with any monetary cure to be completed within 3 business days and any non-monetary cure to be completed within 14 days), exercise any or all of the following remedies, which are cumulative and the exercise of any one remedy will not preclude, prevent or waive Developer’s right to exercise any or all other remedies:

(i) Suspend, Terminate or Retain Payments. Developer may suspend, terminate or retain any or all payments to Contractor for any Work determined by Developer to be in default, until such time as Contractor is not in Default or such Work is fully and finally completed. If Contractor’s right to perform all or a part of the Work is terminated, or this entire Agreement is terminated as provided in Article 14(a), then Contractor will be compensated pursuant to the provisions of Article 14(b). NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, IF (I) CONTRACTOR HAS IN GOOD FAITH ATTEMPTED TO RECONCILE WITH DEVELOPER ANY AMOUNTS (EXCEPT ANY FULL OR PARTIAL PAYMENT THAT DEVELOPER SHALL IN GOOD FAITH BE DISPUTING IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEEMENT) WHICH CONTRACTOR BELIEVES ARE DUE AND UNPAID BY DEVELOPER HEREUNDER FOR TWENTY (20) BUSINESS DAYS AND/OR (II) DEVELOPER IS IN BREACH OF ANY MATERIAL NON-MONETARY OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FOR THIRTY (30) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER WRITTEN NOTICE FROM CONTRACTOR SPECIFYING SUCH BREACH AND (III)(A) IN THE CASE OF A MONETARY DEFAULT BY DEVELOPER, AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF SUCH TWENTY (20) BUSINESS DAY PERIOD CONTRACTOR SENDS WRITTEN NOTICE TO DEVELOPER THAT A PAYMENT IS PAST DUE AND REMAINS UNPAID AND DEVELOPER FAILS TO MAKE SUCH PAYMENT WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER RECEIPT BY DEVELOPER OF SUCH WRITTEN NOTICE OR (B) IN THE CASE OF ANY NON-MONETARY DEFAULT BY DEVELOPER, AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF SUCH THIRTY (30) BUSINESS DAY PERIOD DEVELOPER HAS FAILED TO CURE ITS NON-MONETARY BREACH, THEN CONTRACTOR MAY SUSPEND THE WORK. CONTRACTOR IMMEDIATELY MAY SUSPEND THE WORK IF A BANKRUPTCY EVENT OR AN INSOLVENCY EVENT OCCURS REGARDING DEVELOPER.

(ii) Correct Unsatisfactory or Defective Work. With respect to unsatisfactory or defective Work, upon sufficient notice of default Developer may take possession of the Project and all materials thereon that were used in connection with the performance of Work, correct such unsatisfactory or defective Work and either offset or back-charge the cost incurred by Developer in performing such Work, together with a supervision and administration fee equal to 15% of such costs, against any sums due Contractor by Developer. However, if such costs and fees exceed the unpaid portion of the Contract Price, then Contractor shall immediately pay such excess amount to Developer.

(iii) Perform Unfinished Work. With respect to Work that has not been performed by Contractor in the timeframe set forth in the Contract Documents, upon sufficient notice (3 days) of delay by Contractor, Developer will have the right to take possession of the Project and all materials that were used by Contractor in connection with the performance of such Work on such Project and complete (or cause to be completed) such Work by whatever method Developer may deem expedient. If Developer performs any Work, then the unpaid portion of the Contract Price will be reduced by the amount of all costs incurred by Developer in performing such Work, together with a supervision and administration fee equal to 15% of such costs. However, if such costs and fees exceed the unpaid portion of the Contract Price, then Contractor will immediately pay such excess amount to Developer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Contractor’s right to perform all or a part of Work is terminated, or this entire Agreement is terminated as provided in Article 14(a), then Contractor will be compensated pursuant to the provisions of Article 14(b).

(iv) Terminate Work or Agreement. Developer may terminate all or any portion of the Work or any portion of this Agreement as provided in Article 14.

Contractor acknowledges and agrees that all design documents furnished to Contractor are the property of Owner or Developer (including copyright and intellectual property rights) and Contractor shall not use such documents for any purpose unrelated to the Project. Contractor further acknowledges and agrees that all design documents developed or created for the Project and any other Project deliverables produced by the Contractor in connection with the Project and furnished to Developer or Owner shall be the property of Developer or Owner (including copyright and intellectual property rights).

17. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

(a) Authorized Persons. The only persons with authority to sign and/or amend this Agreement or any Change Order on behalf of Developer are the Developer, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, or expressly designated party named in this Agreement.

Contractor represents and warrants that any person who executes this Agreement or any Change Order on behalf of Contractor has the authority to bind Contractor.

(b) Independent Contractor Status. Contractor will be an independent contractor with respect to the Work, and neither Contractor, nor anyone employed by, or working for, Contractor, will be deemed for any purpose to be the agent, employee, servant or representative of Developer in the performance of the Work unless designated otherwise in writing by Developer. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that Developer will have no direction or control over the means, methods, procedures, details or manner of the Work performed by Contractor or any of its subcontractors, employees, or agents, or any of their employees, agents, vendors or suppliers. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any provisions in this Agreement which may appear to give Developer the right to direct Contractor as to details of doing the Work or to exercise a measure of control over the Work will be deemed to mean that Contractor will follow the desires of Developer in the results of the Work as they pertain to these contract documents only.

(c) Costs. Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, Contractor will bear sole and exclusive responsibility for the payment of all costs, including without limitations, all taxes imposed by local, state or federal law applicable to: the Work, materials supplied by Contractor, payments received by Contractor and payments made by Contractor. Contractor will be solely responsible for the payment of all local, state and federal income taxes, withholding requirements, self- employment taxes, social security taxes and other taxes on the payments made to Contractor and payments made by Contractor to its employees and suppliers.

Failure on the part of either party to complain of any act or failure to act of the other party or to declare the other party in default irrespective of how long such failure continues will not constitute a waiver of the rights of such party.

(g) Time. Time is of the essence with this Agreement and each provision herein contained. Contractor will proceed with the Work in a prompt and diligent manner, in accordance with the Project Schedule in Payment Schedule, as amended by Developer-approved Change Orders. Contractor shall promptly notify Developer in writing at any time that it has reason to believe a milestone in the Project Schedule will not be completed on or before the date required, specifying the corrective action Contractor will take. Contractor shall promptly take such corrective action and complete such milestone as close to the required date as possible. No such notification shall be deemed to relieve Contractor of any of its obligations hereunder or to constitute a waiver by Developer. Contractor will coordinate the Work with the work of Developer and Developer’s other contractors, if any, in order to take all reasonable steps to ensure that no delays or interference will occur in any part of the Project. It is contemplated that Contractor’s performance under this Agreement may be delayed, accelerated, suspended, hindered, or disrupted (a) by acts or omissions of the Developer, Host, Owner, or other subcontractors and other parties involved in the Project, or (b) by other reasonable circumstances not caused by or within the control of the Contractor that would constitute an excusable delay. In such cases, Contractor may request an extension of time for performance and completion of Contractor’s work and an increase to the Contract Price. The extension of time to which the Contractor may be entitled under this Paragraph shall under no circumstances exceed the extension of time granted to Developer.

(h) Contractor’s Work Schedules. Contractor, promptly after entering into this Agreement, shall prepare and submit for the Developer’s information a Contractor’s Work Plan. The Work Plan shall not exceed time limits required by the time schedule provided by Developer, shall identify all proposed personnel on site for Developer pre-approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall be coordinated with other work of Developer or other contractors for the Project, and shall provide for expeditious and practicable execution of the Work. Contractor shall schedule the Work to coincide with Owner’s schedule and shall have all materials, equipment and necessary work crews on the job in order to perform the Work on schedule. Contractor agrees to have adequate personnel on the job site every scheduled work day, so as not to delay the Project or other work of Owner. Contractor shall take all necessary actions required to remedy any delay due to the fault of Contractor or anyone working under Contractor, including, without limitation, providing additional forces to perform the Work, or working overtime at Contractor’s sole cost and expense.

(i) Progress Communication. Contractor shall prepare and submit to Developer on a weekly basis a progress report in form, detail, and character approved by the Developer. The progress report shall specify, among other things, the Work completed as of such date and the projected Work to be completed in the next succeeding month, whether the Project is on schedule, and if not, the reasons therefore and an affirmative plan to recover such delay. Accompanying the progress report shall be an updated current construction schedule, reflecting and explaining any changes from the schedule referred to in Article 17(h) and as detailed on Payment Schedule and the status of any Change Orders, Modifications, bulletins and other relevant documents. In addition, Contractor shall prepare and submit to Developer, within five (5) business days following the end of each month, a monthly progress report (i) describing the Work completed during such month (including digital pictures demonstrating work completed), and (ii) identifying any deviations from the Project Schedule (provided that no identified deviations shall relieve Contractor of its obligations hereunder or constitute a waiver by Developer of any of its rights hereunder), together with an explanation of such deviation(s), a description of planned corrective action, and any anticipated changes in future performance dates relative to the Project Schedule. All diskettes and databases that were used to generate the planned and/or updated schedules shall be made available to the Developer or its agents as the Developer may request. The purposes of the updated construction schedules are: (1) to permit orderly planning, organization and execution of the Work; and (2) to set forth the expected sequence and duration of the Work. The submission of an updated construction schedule shall be for information only and shall, in no event, be deemed a request or approval by Developer for an extension of time to complete the Work. Contractor shall take all reasonable steps to ensure conformance to the most recent schedules approved by Developer.

(j) Working Days and Hours. Working days and hours are set forth in the Work Plan. If Contractor elects to perform operations in excess of those set forth in the Work Plan and Developer concurs, Contractor shall pay for all costs associated with the additional hours. Contractor shall obtain approval from Developer in writing prior to altering work schedule. All “off-hour” work permits are at the Contractor’s sole cost and expense.

Contractor shall be responsible for all safety requirements relative to the Work. Contractor shall remove from the Project site any employee or subcontractor personnel that Developer or Owner or its property manager reasonably deems to be detrimental to the ongoing operation and occupancy of the Project site. In the event Contractor fails to keep the Project site free of unnecessary trash and debris from its operations, Developer shall notify Contractor in writing (which may be provided by facsimile or electronic mail), and if Contractor fails to cure the problem within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of the written notice, Developer may hire other forces to remove the trash and debris and charge the cost against any funds otherwise due to Contractor.

Contractor shall designate a responsible member of the Contractor’s organization at the site whose duty shall be safety and the prevention of accidents, including the flagging and direction of traffic and pedestrians as needed. This person or persons shall be under the direct orders of the Contractor’s superintendent unless otherwise designated by the Contractor in writing to the Developer. Contractor shall report to Developer and Owner any injury to persons or property at the Project site within twenty-four (24) hours of the occurrence thereof.

Contractor shall not load or permit any part of the construction or site to be loaded so as to endanger its safety.

(l) Labor Harmony. Contractor shall maintain workable and harmonious relations with its employees and among Contractor’s employees and the employees of the subcontractors and sub-subcontractors and the employees of Developer. Whenever Contractor has knowledge that any actual or potential labor dispute is delaying or threatening to delay the timely performance of the Work, Contractor shall immediately give notice thereof, including all relevant information, to Developer, and Contractor shall take all steps necessary and within Contractor’s control to prevent or end the labor dispute.

(m) Cleanliness. The Contractor shall keep the premises and surrounding area free from accumulation of waste materials or rubbish caused by operations under this Agreement. At completion of the Work, Contractor shall remove from and about the Project waste materials, rubbish, Contractor’s tools, construction equipment, machinery and surplus material and shall decontaminate the work area in accordance with the requirements of the Contract Documents. If Contractor fails to clean up as provided in the Contract Documents, Developer may do so and the cost thereof shall be charged to Contractor.

(n) Assignment. Contractor will not assign this Agreement, or any portion thereof, or assign any money due or which may become due hereunder, without the prior written consent of Developer. In addition to constituting a default under this Agreement, any assignment or attempted assignment made in violation of this Article 17(n) will be null and void and the assignee will acquire no rights hereunder. If Developer consents to such assignment or Contractor subcontracts a portion of the Work under this Agreement, Contractor will continue to be (unless Developer issues Contractor a written release to the contrary) and the assignee will be bound by the terms of this Agreement including, without limitation, the insurance provisions contained herein. If an assignment is made in breach of this Agreement, Contractor is liable to Developer for all damages resulting therefrom. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Developer may assign this Agreement without the consent of Contractor upon proper notice - but Developer will continue to be liable for payments and other obligations owed to Contractor under this Agreement unless Contractor otherwise consents (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(o) Successors and Assigns. Subject to the provisions of Article 17(n) relating to assignment, this Agreement will be binding upon and extend to the benefit of the parties and their heirs, successors and assigns.

3. Commissioning Work. Contractor will commission the Project by performing Contractor’s standard interconnection and inspection procedures, start up, operation, commissioning, System Acceptance Testing, including verification of design system kW output and a physical kWh output performance test that shall demonstrate, to the sole satisfaction of Developer, as long as consent is not unreasonably withheld, that the Project performs within +/- 2% of the expected output ranges accounting for actual atmospheric conditions.

Contractor will provide on-site initial start-up and commissioning to verify proper operation and performance. This will be achieved by taking measurements from the output meter and monitoring equipment. Contractor will use calibrated field test instruments to define the exact level of system performance and output under the actual field conditions with specific measurements of the solar radiation on the array and compare this to the monitoring equipment. All of this data will be aggregated and compared to both the output meter values and to the expected values calculated based on the data recorded according to the new ASTM standards. After the data has been calculated, any necessary adjustments will be made to either further calibrate the monitoring equipment or, if need be, to re-install any defective components. A commissioning report shall be prepared by Contractor and will serve as a “performance baseline” for the Project.

4. System Acceptance Testing. As part of Substantial Completion, Contractor shall perform, or cause to be performed, all tests, approvals and inspections of the Work required by any governmental authority and as otherwise reasonably necessary, appropriate or customary to assure the proper operation of the Project in accordance with the solar industry best practices and Good Utility Practices (“System Acceptance Testing”). Contractor shall from time to time notify Developer not less than three (3) business days prior to the anticipated date of System Acceptance Testing, which shall be conducted to ensure that the Project is operational and interconnected. Developer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to be present at and observe the System Acceptance Testing, at Developer’s sole cost. Contractor shall provide or obtain from the contractor performing the System Acceptance Testing written confirmation of the results thereof and conformity of such results with the then-agreed design of the Project. If, for any reason the Project does not satisfactorily complete the System Acceptance Testing, Contractor shall repair or correct any defect or deficiency that caused such failed test. Upon completion of such repairs or correction, Contractor shall cause the System Acceptance Testing to be re-performed. For the avoidance of doubt, the System Acceptance Testing and declaration of Substantial Completion for the Project shall include documented written evidence supplied and certified by the Contractor to the Developer that the Project physically, after interconnection to the premises’ electrical systems, produces the kW output based on the then agreed upon design. Upon receipt of such evidence and certification of successful attainment of design output, the Developer shall advise Contractor of acceptance of the Project and Substantial Completion thereof.

5. Final Completion Tasks.

● Provision of equipment-related documentation for operation and maintenance, including all as-built drawings;

● Contractor will schedule and conduct a quality/acceptance walkthrough with Developer’s QA/QC team and operation and maintenance team after Contractor completes all existing punchlist items; and

● Contractor will complete any punchlist items identified during such quality/acceptance walkthrough.
