(b) The Contractor’s Fee, as adjusted by Change Orders executed in accordance with<br />

the terms of this Agreement and by the procedures set forth in Article 26 following FedEx’s<br />

execution and delivery of <strong>Construction</strong> Change Directives, is inclusive of all remuneration that<br />

FedEx must pay Contractor in connection with the Work and the performance of the obligations<br />

Contractor undertakes under the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation,<br />

Contractor’s obligation to pay Transaction Taxes and Contractor Taxes in accordance with the<br />

terms of Article 14 below, and will not be increased by reason of losses, costs and expenses that<br />

are incurred by reason of the bad faith or willful misconduct of Contractor, including, without<br />

limitation, losses, costs and expenses to the extent attributable to:<br />

(i) Contractor's continued performance of the Work without prior<br />

notice to FedEx after Contractor discovers or becomes aware of<br />

any errors, inconsistencies or omissions in the Contract Documents<br />

or in the earlier performance of the Work or of any violations of<br />

Legal Requirements;<br />

(ii) Contractor’s performance of the Work without prior notice to<br />

FedEx after Contractor discovers or becomes aware of any<br />

unanticipated condition, or the occurrence of any event, that is<br />

likely to adversely affect performance of the Work; and<br />

(iii) Contractor's intentional or grossly negligent failure to adhere to<br />

particular methods or operating procedures or sequences or<br />

techniques specified in the Contract Documents or applicable<br />

Legal Requirements, unless FedEx expressly directs it to do so in<br />

writing.<br />

Section 4.02. Allowances.<br />

The Contractor’s Fee includes all allowances (individually, an<br />

“Allowance” and collectively, the “Allowances”) set forth in the Contract Documents. An<br />

Allowance will cover the cost of the Materials delivered and unloaded at the Site and all<br />

applicable Transaction Taxes. The costs Contractor incurs in connection with the handling of an<br />

Allowance item at the Site, including, without limitation, labor costs, installation costs, overhead<br />

and profit, are included in the Contractor’s Fee and not in the Allowance for that item. If the<br />

actual cost of performing that portion of the Work included within an Allowance is more or less<br />

than the Allowance amount, the parties will execute a Change Order to adjust the Contractor’s<br />

Fee to reflect the shortage or surplus in the Allowance. Contractor must cause that portion of the<br />

Work included within an Allowance to be performed for such amounts and by such persons as<br />

FedEx may direct; FedEx, however, may not require Contractor to use any person to whom<br />

Contractor has a reasonable objection.<br />

Section 4.03. Retainage. (a) In making any payment to Contractor (other than Final<br />

Payment), FedEx will retain ten percent (10%) of the amount FedEx approves for payment<br />

("Retainage"). The Retainage will become due and payable to Contractor only when Final<br />

Payment becomes due and payable as provided in this Agreement. If permitted by applicable law,<br />
