provided below and elsewhere in the Contract Documents. 

12.1.2 	The period covered by each Application for Payment shall be one calendar
month ending on the last day of the month, or as follows: 
	
12.1.3   Provided that an Application for payment is received by the Architect
not later than the LAST day of a month. The Owner* shall make payment to the 
Contractor not later than the TWENTY-FIRST day of the FOLLOWING month. If an
Application  for Payment is received by the Architect after the application date
fixed above, payment shall be made by the Owner not later than THIRTY days
after the Architect receives the Application for Payment. *UPON APPROVAL OF 
THEIR BANK

12.1.4  With each Application for Payment, the Contractor shall submit payrolls,
petty cash accounts, receipted invoices or invoices with check vouchers
attached, and any other evidence required by the Owner or Architect to
demonstrate that cash disbursements already made by the Contractor on account
of the Cost of the Work equal or exceed (1) progress payments already received
by the Contractor; less (2 ) that portion of those payments attributable to the
Contractor's Fee; plus (3) payrolls for the period covered by the present
Application for Payment.






12.1.5  Each Application for Payment shall be based on the most recent schedule
of values submitted by the Contractor in accordance with the Contract
Documents. The schedule of values shall allocate the entire Guaranteed Maximum
Price among the various portions of the Work, except that the Contractor's Fee
shall be shown as a single separate item. The schedule of values shall be
prepared in such form and supported be such data to substantiate its accuracy
as the Architect may require. This schedule, unless objected to by the
Architect, shall be used as a basis for reviewing the Contractor's Applications
for Payment.

12.1.6 	Applications for Payment shall show the percentage of completion of
each portion of the Work as of the end of the period covered by the Application
for Payment. The percentage of completion shall be the lesser of (1) the
percentage of that portion of the Work which has actually been completed; or
(2) the percentage obtained by dividing (a) the expense that has actually been
incurred by the Contractor on account of that portion of the Work for which the
Contractor has made or intends to make actual payment prior to the next
Application for Payment by (b) the share of the Guaranteed Maximum Price
allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values. 

12.1.7 	Subject to other provisions of the Contract Documents, the amount of
each progress payment shall be computed as follows: 

        .1      take that portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly 
allocable to completed work as determined by multiplying the percentage of
completion of each portion of the Work by the share of the Guaranteed Maximum
Price allocated to that portion of the Work in the schedule of values.
Pending final determination of cost to the Owner of changes in the Work,
amounts not in dispute shall be included as provided in Subparagraph 7.3.8
of AIA Document A201- 1997;

        .2      add that portion of the Guaranteed Maximum Price properly 
allocable to materials and equipment delivered and suitably, stored at the 
site for subsequent incorporation in the Work, or if approved in advamce
by the Owner, suitably stored off the site at a location agreed upon in
writing; 
        .3      add the Contractor's Fee, less retainage of TEN - percent
(10% ). The Contractor's Fee shall be computed upon the Cost of the Work
described in the two preceding Clauses at the rate stated in Subparagraph
5.1.2 or, if the Contractor's Fee is stated as a fixed sum in that
Subparagraph, shall be an amount that bears the same ratio to that fixed-sum
fee as the Cost of the Work in the two preceding Clauses bears to a
reasonable estimate of the probable Cost of the Work upon its completion;

        .4      subtract the aggregate of previous payments made by the Owner;

        .5      subtract the shortfall, if any, indicated by the Contractor in
the documentation required by Paragraph 12.1.4 to substantiate prior
Applications for Payment, or resulting from errors subsequently discovered
by the Owner's accountants in such documentation; and

        .6      subtract amounts, if any, for which the Architect has
withheld or nullified a Certificate for Payment as provided in Paragraph 9.5
of AIA Document A201-1997.






12.1.8 	Except with the Owner's prior approval, payments to Subcontractors
shall be subject to retainage of not less than FIVE percent ( 5 %). The Owner
and the Contractor shall agree upon a mutually acceptable procedure for review
and approval of payments and retention for Subcontractors.
 
12.1.9 	In taking action on the Contractor's Applications for Payment, the
Architect shall be entitled to rely on the accuracy and completeness of the
information furnished by the Contractor and shall not be deemed to represent
that the Architect has made a detailed examination, audit or arithmetic
verification of the documentation submitted in accordance with Subparagraph
12.1.4 or other supporting data; that the Architect has made exhaustive or
continuous on-site inspections or that the Architect has made examinations to
ascertain how or for what purposes the Contractor has used amounts previously
paid on account of the Contract. Such examinations, audits and verifications,
if required by the Owner, will be performed by the Owner's accountants acting
in the sole interest of the Owner.

12.2 	FINAL PAYMENT

12.2.1 	Final payment, constituting the entire unpaid balance of the Contract
Sum, shall be made by the Owner to the Contractor when:  

        .1      the Contractor has fully performed the Contract except for
the Contractor's responsibility to correct Work as provided in Subparagraph
12.2.2 of AIA Document A201-1997, and to satisfy other requirements, if any,
which extend beyond final payment; and

        .2      a final Certificate for Payment has been issued by the
Architect.

12.2.2  The Owner's final payment to the Contractor shall be made no later
than 30 days after the issuance of the Architect's final Certificate for
Payment, or as follows:
 
12.2.3  The Owner's accountants will review and report in writing on the
Contractor's final accounting within 30 days after delivery of the final
accounting to the Architect by the Contractor. Based upon such Cost of the
Work as the Owner's accountants report to be substantiated by the Contractor's
final accounting, and provided the other conditions of Subparagraph 12.2.1 have
been met, the Architect will, within seven days after receipt of the written
report of the Owner's accountants, either issue to the Owner a final Certificate
for Payment with a copy to the Contractor, or notify the Contractor and Owner
in writing of the Architect's reasons for withholding a certificate as provided
in Subparagraph 9.5.1 of the AIA Document A201-1997. The time periods stated in
this Subparagraph 12.2.3 supersede those stated in Subparagraph 9.4.1 of the
AIA Document A201-1997.

12.2.4 	If the Owner's accountants report the Cost of the Work as substantiated
by the Contractor's final accounting to be less than claimed by the
Contractor, the Contractor shall be entitled to demand arbitration of the
disputed amount without a further decision of the Architect. Such demand for
arbitration shall be made by the Contractor within 30 days after the
Contractor's receipt of a copy of the Architect's final Certificate for Payment;







failure to demand arbitration within this 30-day period shall result in the
substantiated amount reported by the Owner's accountants becoming binding on the
Contractor. Pending a final resolution by arbitration, the Owner shall pay the
Contractor the amount certified in the Architect's final Certificate for
Payment.

12.2.5	 If, subsequent to final payment and at the Owner's request, the
Contractor incurs costs described in Article 7 and not excluded by Article 8 to
correct defective or nonconforming Work, the Owner shall reimburse the
Contractor such costs and the Contractor's Fee applicable thereto on the same
basis as if such costs had been incurred prior to final payment, but not in
excess of the Guaranteed Maximum Price. If the Contractor has participated in
savings as provided in Paragraph 5.2, the amount of such savings shall be
recalculated and appropriate credit given to the Owner in determining the net
amount to be paid by the Owner to the Contractor.
 
ARTICLE 13    TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION

13.1 	The Contract may be terminated by the Contractor, or by the Owner for 
convenience, as provided in Article 14 of AIA Document A201-1997. However, the 
amount to be paid to the Contractor under Subparagraph 14.1.3 of A1A Document 
A201-1997 shall not exceed the amount the Contractor would be entitled to
receive under Paragraph 13.2 below, except that the Contractor's Fee shall be
calculated as if the Work had been fully completed by the Contractor, including
a reasonable estimate of the Cost of the Work for Work not actually completed. 

13.2	 The Contract may be terminated by the Owner for cause as provided in 
Article 14 of AIA Document A201-1997. The amount, if any, to be paid to the 
Contractor under Subparagraph 14.2.4 of AIA Document A201-1997 shall not cause 
the Guaranteed Maximum Price to be exceeded, nor shall it exceed an amount 
calculated as follows: 

13.2.1 	Take the Cost of the Work incurred by the Contractor to the date of 
termination; 

13.2.2 	Add the Contractor's Fee computed upon the Cost of the Work to the date 
of termination at the rate stated in Subparagraph 5.1.2 or, if the Contractor's
Fee is stated as a fixed sum in that Subparagraph, an amount that bears the
same ratio to that fixed-sum Fee as the Cost of the Work at the time of
termination bears to a reasonable estimate of the probable Cost of the Work
upon its completion; and

13.2.3 	Subtract the aggregate of previous payments made b\ the Owner. 

13.3  	The Owner shall also pay the Contractor fair compensation, either by 
purchase or rental at the election of the Owner, for any equipment owned by the 
Contractor that the Owner elects to retain and that is not otherwise included in
the Cost of the Work under Subparagraph 13.2.1. To the extent that the Owner
elects to take legal assignment of subcontracts and purchase orders (including
rental agreements), the Contractor shall, as a condition of receiving the
payments referred to in this Article 13, execute and deliver all such papers
and take all such steps, including the legal assignment of such subcontracts
and other contractual rights of the Contractor, as the Owner may require for
the purpose






of fully vesting in the Owner the rights and benefits of the Contractor under
such subcontracts or purchase orders. 


13.4 	The Work may be suspended by the Owner as provided in Article 14 of 
AIA Document A201-1997; in such case, the Guaranteed Maximum Price and 
Contract Time shall be increased as provided in Subparagraph 14.3.2 of AIA 
Document A201-1997 except that the term "profit" shall be understood to mean the
Contractor's Fee as described in Subparagraphs 5.1.2 and Paragraph 6.4 of this 
Agreement.
