A budget for the Work is attached as Exhibit 2(b) hereto (the "Project Budget").
 
I.      The City and CNI desire to agree on the division of responsibilities between the

L. Prior to entering the Subject Property, CNI will secure, at its sole cost and expense as part of the Work, all necessary permits and governmental approvals required to perform any activity related to the Work. CNI acknowledges that this Agreement shall not act as a substitute for any permits or approvals that may be required for such activity.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, it is agreed between the City and CNI as follows:
 
1. The above recitals are expressly incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and other agreement or document which wholly or in part addresses the responsibility to construct, maintain, repair and replace the Public Improvements, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.
 
 
 
2
 
  1. This Agreement applies to the Work to be performed, including the Public Improvements to be constructed, by CNI within public ways and public property, existing and anticipated, of the City.
  2. CNI will be responsible to for the installation, maintenance, repair, and replacement of Public Improvements pursuant to this Agreement until each said Public Improvement is inspected and accepted by the appropriate City department at the direction of 2FM subject to (A) the expiration of the one-year guarantee period set forth in Section 4(0) hereof with respect to warranty work and warranty obligations set forth therein. It is anticipated that DPD shall issue one Certificate (defined below) for the Work on Subarea C, another Certificate for the Work on Subareas A, B and D and one or more Certificates for the Work on
the remaining portions of the Subject Property (known herein as the "[      ]"). The
conditions and schedules for acceptances of Public Improvements shall be set by the appropriate City department and shall conform to this Agreement. Any such inspections of the Public Improvements shall not be construed as a representation by the City that there has been compliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications or that the Public Improvements will be or are free of faulty materials or workmanship, or as a waiver of any right that the City (or any other party) may have against CNI or any other party for failure to comply with the Approved Plans and Specifications or the provisions of this Agreement. However, the City shall accept the Public Improvements, subject to approval of any other jurisdiction having authority over any portion of such Public Improvements, upon completion of that portion thereof as long as they are in conformance with the Approved Plans and Specifications and this Agreement. Acceptance shall constitute the City's acknowledgment of CNI's compliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications, subject to the warranty requirements set forth in this Agreement.
 
3.5 A. "Change Order" means any amendment or modification to the Approved Plans and Specifications or the Project Budget. All Change Orders (and documentation substantiating the need therefor) relating to changes to the Approved Plans and Specifications must be submitted by CNI to DPD for DPD's prior written approval. CNI will not authorize or permit the performance of any work relating to any Change Order or the furnishing of materials in connection therewith prior to the receipt by CNI of DPD's written approval.

CNI shall not assign, delegate, subcontract or otherwise transfer all or any part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or any part hereof, unless otherwise provided for herein or without the express written consent of 2FM; provided, however, that CNI may elect and is authorized to delegate contracting obligations to a contractor and subcontract for the construction of the Work. The absence of a provision in this Agreement authorizing the assignment, delegation or transfer or the absence of written consent shall void the attempted assignment, delegation or transfer and shall be of no effect as to the Work or this Agreement. All subcontracts, all approvals of subcontractors and any assignment to which the City consents are, regardless of their form, deemed conditioned upon performance by the subcontractor or assignee in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. CNI shall provide the City with copies of all subcontracts and assignments and any amendments thereto.
  1. CNI will cause the Work to be performed, including the Public Improvements to be constructed, subject to the following conditions:
 
A.      CNI shall retain the services of a qualified and licensed engineer experienced in

The: Consultant Engineer's scope of work shall include, but not be limited to, preparation of all construction documentation in accordance with the applicable requirements of the Chicago Department of Transportation's Construction Manual, quality assurance and quality control, review of all contractor submittals including shop drawings, material submittals and catalogue cuts, determine the appropriateness of any proposed modifications to the Plans and Specifications, prepare punchlists on behalf of the City and supervise project closeout and acceptance. All work shall be performed under the direction of a licensed State of Illinois Professional Engineer who shall serve as the resident engineer ("Resident Engineer") for the Work. Staffing shall be as determined by agreement of 2FM and CNI, and shall be adequate to cover all aspects ofthe Work.
 
[B. CNI, its agents, contractors or subcontractors may determine that it is necessary to temporarily alter or remove public structures or public property or temporarily close the public way in order to carry out operations or construction. Prior to the commencement of any such activity, the plans ofthe proposed alterations, the removals and subsequent restoration, and the temporary closing of the public way must be approved in writing by affected City departments including, but not limited to, the Department of Transportation. Where reasonable, the restoration of removed or altered public structures or property shall conform to the latest City design standards even when those standards exceed that of the original condition existing prior to the commencement of any of these alterations or removals.]
  1. CNI, its agents, contractors or subcontractors shall exercise reasonable care in the performance of the Work and take all necessary precautions to protect all adjacent and surrounding sidewalks, roadways, City properties, including, but not limited to the decommissioned fire station located at 6204 South Green Street, and all other public structures and shall be fully responsible for the restoration to grade or function of any surrounding sidewalks, roadways, utility facilities, City properties, and all other public structures impacted by its work.
  2. The permanent storage of flammable materials, liquids gases, or hazardous materials (as defined by any applicable federal, state, county, or local laws) will not be permitted upon, under or in the adjacent vicinity of the publicly owned structures or improvements.

  3. CNI, its agents, contractors, and subcontractors will, during the Work in the public way, provide, install, maintain and remove as required, shores, braces, barricades, signs, lights, traffic control, and other devices as the City may require for protection or convenience of the public and prior to doing any work, or prior to occupying the public way in any manner, including temporary closing of streets, will secure permission and any bonds that may be

4
 
 
will be subject to immediate removal from the Subject Property upon demand.
  1. Prior to commencement of construction of the Public Improvements or access to the Subject Property, (on behalf of CNI, its contractors, subcontractors, and agents) CNI shall cause to be procured and delivered to the City, and shall maintain in full force and effect until construction of the Public Improvements has been completed and accepted by the City, as applicable, a policy or policies of insurance, as evidenced by certificates of insurance, approved by and meeting the requirements of the City's Risk Manager, all as set forth in Exhibit 3 attached hereto. All such policies shall be in such form and issued by such companies as shall be reasonably acceptable to the City, to protect the City and CNI against, among other things, any liability incidental to the use of, or resulting from, any accident occurring on or about the Public Improvements or the construction of an improvement thereof. Each such policy shall name the City, its officers, employees, and agents as an additional named insured party. Nonconforming insurance and/or CNI's failure to provide the City with any applicable certificates of insurance shall not relieve CNI of the obligation to provide insurance as specified in Exhibit 3. The receipt of any certificate does not constitute agreement by the City that the insurance requirements of Exhibit 3 have been fully met or that the insurance policies indicated on the certificate are in compliance with all requirements set forth therein. The failure of the City to obtain certificates or other evidence of insurance from CNI (or its contractors, subcontractors, or agents as applicable) shall not be deemed to be a waiver by the City of the insurance requirements set forth herein.
  2. All work related to the construction of the Public Improvements, including all testing, inspection and other verifications necessary as determined by 2FM, the DPD Commissioner on behalf of DPD and the appropriate City department commissioner as applicable, to insure that the Public Improvements are constructed according to the Plans and Specifications for the Public Improvements, shall be done and performed by CNI consistent with the requirements set forth in Section 4(A) above.
 
[I. If applicable or directed by the appropriate City department, CNI shall employ an independent surveyor that is not affiliated with CNI to take readings, both laterally and vertically, on reference points on all supporting viaduct columns, abutments, retaining walls and other City structures adjacent to the Subject Property, which include but are not necessarily limited to structures on existing street pavements, sidewalks, curbs, sewer mains and or appurtenances, and/or water mains and/or appurtenances as required by the City. Initial readings shall be obtained prior to the commencement of any excavation activity. During excavation within a 50-foot wide strip adjacent to the City's existing structures or as reasonably determined by the appropriate City department, readings shall be taken as frequently as necessary as directed by the appropriate City department but no less than once a week until the Subject Property has been backfilled to the surrounding existing grade. After backfilling has been completed, the surveyor shall continue to take the survey readings at the same frequency until the total settlement is less than 0.01 feet difference between subsequent weekly readings at which time readings shall be taken on a monthly basis and shall continue thusly, until one full calendar year has elapsed after completion in full of the entire Public Improvements. After elapse of one full year after completion of the Public Improvements, readings may be terminated when all movements have ceased for a continuous three-month period. If any movement on any existing structures, vertical or horizontal, shall come to be 0.04 foot total, as compared to the initial observation before the start of any construction activities, then all operations shall immediately cease and the DPD Commissioner or such Commissioner's representative shall be notified immediately. Work will not start again without the prior written consent of the DPD

Commissioner. The surveyor retained shall possess a current State of Illinois Land Surveyors Registration. All reference points shall be approved beforehand by the DPD Commissioner or his/her representative. The surveyor shall submit four (4) copies of his readings to Dixit Patel of the Department of Buildings and Zenon Stuck ofthe Department of Transportation.]

This bond shall remain in full force and effect until one full calendar year has elapsed after acceptance of the Public Improvements by the DPD Commissioner. After the elapse of one fully calendar year after such acceptance and if during this calendar year settlements, movements, or damage of the City structures is evident, then this bond shall remain in full force and effect until such times when it is proven that any effect until such time when it is proven that any such settlements, damage, or movement to the City's structures have ceased for a continuous three-month period the DPD Commissioner or his representative shall send to CNI a written release from this obligation only when this condition has been fulfilled to the DPD Commissioner's satisfaction.
 
K. Written authority from the DPD Commissioner or other appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, is required prior to the initiation of any work not indicated in the Approved Plans and Specifications. The DPD Commissioner or other appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, must review and approve, prior to the initiation of any such work, design calculations, plans and specifications signed and sealed by a licensed State of Illinois Professional Engineer. Such design modifications shall be made by the original designer of record for the work to be modified. It shall be the obligation of CNI to perform any work so authorized according to the revised Plans and Specifications submitted to and approved by the DPD Commissioner or other appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, which Plans and Specifications will then constitute the Approved Plans and Specifications.
 
L. Three (3) copies of shop drawings, catalogue cuts and material submittals pertaining to the Public Improvements, approved by CNI's contractor and reviewed and approved by the Consultant Engineer shall be delivered to the DPD Commissioner at least twenty (20) business days prior to the beginning of any work specified by said shop drawings, catalogue cuts or material submittals for the purpose of verifying that work conforms to the requirements of the Plans and Specifications.
 
M. Within sixty (60) days after the completion of all Work required by this Agreement, CNI or its appointed agent will deliver to the DPD Commissioner or appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, a complete set of "As Built" plans, shop drawings, material submittals and catalogue cuts reproduced on Mylar or transparent film and a computer diskette(s) (CD) of the same information in scanned raster format pertaining to the Public Improvements. The plan reproductions shall measure 27 inches by 41 inches.
 
N. As contemplated in Section 4(J) above, CNI shall deliver payment and performance bonds (collectively, the "Bond") to the City in accordance with this Agreement and may cause its contractor and/or subcontractors to obtain such Bonds, in a sum equal to one hundred percent of the hard costs set forth in the Project Budget, which Bond shall provide that
 
 
6
 
 
CNI, or any general contractor or subcontractors posting said Bond, as applicable, shall perform all work according to the Approved Plans and Specifications for Public Improvements and promptly pay all debts incurred by CNI or its general contractor in the prosecution of said work for materials and labor. The City will be included as an obligee or co-obligee on said Bond(s). CNI will submit to the DPD Commissioner a copy of said Bond(s) upon execution. Any performance Bond so provided must comply with the provisions of 30 ILCS 55011 et seq., as amended, and Chapter 2, Section 2-92-030 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, as amended, and be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4. The surety or sureties issuing the Bond must be acceptable to the City Comptroller. The surety for the Bond must have a Best's Key Rating Guide of "B+", Class XI or greater. The Bond shall cover through the guarantee period required under Section 4(0) of this Agreement.

O. All Work authorized herein shall be guaranteed by CNI against defective design, materials and workmanship, improper performance, and noncompliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications for a period of one year after written acceptance by the DPD Commissioner, or appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, of the completed Public Improvements. During such guarantee period, CNI shall repair and replace to the reasonable satisfaction of the DPD Commissioner, or appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, any defects in materials and workmanship, improper performance, or noncompliance with the Approved Plans and Specifications at its own expense. Any material which is repaired or replaced shall have the guarantee period with respect to such material extended and recommence from the date of acceptance by DPD or appropriate City Department, as applicable, of last repair or replacement of such material. CNI may delegate all or a portion of the foregoing guarantee obligation to one or more of its Subcontractors by means of assigning guarantees from such Subcontractors to the City in writing; provided, however, that such assignments shall be subject to the City's approval.
 
P. All construction activity authorized herein will be subject to review and inspection by the DPD Commissioner, or appropriate City department commissioner, as applicable, or their respective authorized representative(s), and the City will at all times be allowed access to all parts of this work in which the City has an interest. Work and activities shall proceed based on a schedule (the "Project Schedule," attached hereto as Exhibit 2(c)), as the same may be revised from time to time, submitted by CNI to, and approved by, the DPD Commissioner, or appropriate City department commissioner, or [their] designees, as applicable. Any anticipated material schedule deviation from the previously approved Project Schedule shall require a five (5) working day advance notice from CNI in connection with seeking such approvals. All work, procedures and materials that fail to comply with the Approved Plans and Specifications will be rejected and shall be removed solely at CNI's expense and all work shall be suspended unless acceptable corrective actions are taken within ten (10) business days of written notification of non-compliance. The responsibilities of the various applicable City departments with respect to the inspection, review and approval ofthe Work are set forth in Exhibit 2(d) hereof.
 
Q. CNI must at all times observe and comply, and must cause its contractors and subcontractors to observe and comply, with all applicable Federal, State and local laws, ordinances, codes, rules, regulations and executive orders, now existing, which may in any manner affect the performance of this Agreement. Provisions required by law ordinance, codes, rules, regulations, or executive orders to be inserted in this Agreement are deemed inserted, whether or not they appear in this Agreement, or upon application by either party, this Agreement, will forthwith be physically amended to physically make such insertion; however, in
 
 
7
 
 
no event does the failure to insert such provision(s) prevent the enforcement of such provision(s) of this Agreement.
 
In constructing the Public Improvements, CNI must follow the most stringent of the applicable agency and code requirements. CNI is fully responsible for ascertaining and complying with all agency and code requirements applicable to the Public Improvements.
 
R-1.    Payment to CNI
 
(1)     Payment Applications. The City will promptly pay CNI for the cost of the Work,
including an agreed: upon fee of      %, not to exceed $      in the aggregate, to be
paid to CNI for CNI's services in administering and causing the Work to be performed, up to the Guaranteed Maximum Price, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Payment shall be made promptly through an escrow account established pursuant to an escrow
agreement among the City, CNI and             (the "Escrow Agent") in
substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit 6 (the "Escrow Agreement"). On the Effective Date, the City shall deposit with the Escrow Agent Incremental Taxes in an amount equal to the full amount of the Guaranteed Maximum Price. [CNI open to discussing deposit schedule] It is the duty of CNI to effectively manage the payment application process and all related paperwork. CNI is responsible to the City for securing and delivering all paperwork required by the Agreement to be submitted with payment applications, including Subcontractor, consultant and material supplier lien waivers, certified payrolls, and all other required documents as further specified herein. Repeated failure of CNI to promptly submit its payment applications to the City, in proper and complete form, will constitute a material breach of this Agreement, and constitute cause for termination. No payment application will include payment for Work for which CNI has not been billed by the applicable subcontractor, material supplier, service provider or consultant. CNI will submit payment applications in such a manner so as not to delay payment to any subcontractor, material supplier, consultant or service provider whose billing and lien waiver paperwork is complete. All required certified payrolls, trailing lien waivers, and other required paperwork must be submitted with the payment application. CNI's payment application will not include any request for payment for work of any subcontractor, material supplier, consultant, or service provider whose certified payrolls, trailing lien waivers, or other payment paperwork is incomplete at the time the payment application is submitted.
 
(2) Schedule of Values; Treatment of Prior Expenditures. No later than fifteen (15) Days after the Effective Date, CNI will submit to the DPD Commissioner or his designee (the "Authorized City Representative") a schedule of values ("Schedule of Values"), showing values of the Work to be performed by trade contractors, which values shall be modified as Subcontract awards are made, and agreed upon construction fee ("Construction Fee") containing such supporting details or other evidence as to its correctness as the architect ("Architect") and Authorized City Representative may require. The Schedule of Values will list the value for each construction activity broken down by materials and labor to be included in the progress schedule. When approved by the Authorized City Representative, the Schedule of Values will be used as a basis for certificates of payment unless it is found to be in error.
 
CNI has made certain expenditures in satisfaction of certain costs covered in the Project Budget prior to the Effective Date (the "Prior Expenditure(s)").

Date.
  1. Invoice Target Date. The City will assign an invoice target date to CNI. Not later than ten (10) Days prior to the invoice target date, CNI will submit to the Authorized City Representative a pencil copy of the application for payment ("Payment Application") for Work completed through the end of the current month and a monthly progress report. Not later than five (5) Days prior to the invoice target date, the pencil copy will be reviewed for approval of value of the Work completed at the payment review meeting with the Architect and Authorized City Representative. Calculation of the value of Work completed will be made by summarizing the individual values of Work completed as such completion is reported in the monthly progress report reviewed by the Architect for the approval of the City. Submission of the monthly progress report five (5) Days prior to the payment review meeting will be a condition precedent to the approval of the payment application. The pencil copy of the Payment Application will project completion of Work through the end of the current month.
  2. Sworn Statement. On the invoice target date of each month, CNI will submit to the Authorized City Representative, in triplicate, an application for partial payment including a notarized affidavit stating that all monetary obligations to all subcontractors for the periods covered by all prior applications for payment for which payment has been made by the City, if any, have been completely fulfilled and discharged. The affidavit must be supported by receipts or receipted vouchers, and lien waivers, evidencing payments for such materials, services, labor, and payments to subcontractors, together with a waiver of lien covering the amount for which the current payment is being requested and such other evidence of CNI's right to payment as the Authorized City Representative may direct. CNI shall submit form of waiver of lien for partial or progress payment to the City for approval. The application for partial payment will conform to approvals made by the Authorized City Representative at the payment review meeting.
  3. Certified Payrolls. Three copies of certified payrolls for the payment period are to be submitted by CNI and all subcontractors working on the Subject Property to the City or its designated representative every week. The City may elect to utilize a Web-based method for electronic submittal of certified payrolls. In the event that the City elects to utilize electronic submittal, CNI shall follow the directions provided by the City, and submit its certified payrolls electronically, as a replacement for the three hard copy submittals. All payrolls must be identified with CNI or subcontractor's name and contract name and number, and must be sequentially numbered. The payroll will be submitted by CNI and subcontractor until all Work by CNI or subcontractor is completed. If there are periods of no Work by CNI or a Subcontractor, a payroll labeled "NO WORK" will be submitted. The final payroll will be labeled "FINAL." Certified payrolls are required to assure equal employment opportunity ("EEO") compliance as well as wage compliance. Race, worker classification, and gender must be clearly marked for each employee on the certified payroll along with all additional information required by the City. An employee's address should appear every time his/her name appears on the payroll. CNI must submit the certified payrolls and additional information regarding EEO and wage compliance by providing a payroll summary report ("Payroll Summary Report") in the form required by the City. The EEO report form required by the City and the U.S. Department of Labor must be submitted by CNI and each subcontractor, reflecting fully the periods of Work covered by the partial payment request.
  4. Documentation Supporting Monthly Payment Applications

  1. For the first Payment Application, CNI must provide its own Sworn Statement and its own partial lien waivers in support of the Payment Application.
  2. For the second Payment Application, CNI must provide: its own Sworn Statement, its own partial lien waivers for the current Payment Application and partial lien waivers from all of its first tier Subcontractors for the prior Payment Application.
  3. For the third Payment Application, CNI must provide: its own Sworn Statement, its own partial lien waivers for the current month, its first tier subcontractors ("First Tier Subcontractors") partial lien waivers for the previous month, and partial lien waivers of the second tier subcontractors ("Second Tier Subcontractors") for the first Payment Application.
  4. For the fourth and all subsequent Payment Applications, CNI must provide the corresponding supporting documentation as indicated in 4(R-1)(6)(c) above. For the final Payment Application all lien waivers of CNI, its first tier Subcontractors, and all Second Tier Subcontractors must be "final" waivers.
  5. Prior to final payment and Final Completion and Acceptance of the Work, CNI must comply with the requirements of Section 4(R-1)(9), below. Unless a written extension is granted by the City, CNI must submit the final payment application and waivers consistent herewith. CNI's failure to do so within the required time period is an Event of Default hereunder.
  1. Deductions for Uncorrected Work. The City reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, deduct the cost of damaged or non-conforming Work from the Guaranteed Maximum Price rather than require CNI to repair or replace such damaged or non-conforming Work, but only in the event CNI has failed to correct the non-conforming Work after receiving reasonable notice from the City that the City will correct the non-conforming Work, and CNI has failed to commence correcting such non-conforming Work promptly upon receipt of such notice from the City.
  2. Certificates for Payment. If CNI has complied with the requirements of Section 4(R-1)(1), "Payment Applications," the Authorized City Representative will issue to CNI a certificate for such amount as the Authorized City Representative determines to be properly due as agreed upon during the payment review meeting during the preceding payment period. The amount of each partial payment will be the total sum of completed Work (including bonds, insurance and fees) less prior partial payments, retainage, and payments withheld in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(R-1)(10) "Payments Withheld." No certificate issued for payment, nor payment to CNI, nor partial or entire use of the Work, nor occupancy of the Subject Property by the City will be an acceptance of any Work or materials not in accordance herewith. Any certificates for payment are for the benefit of the City and will not be relied upon by any other party (including any surety or Subcontractor of CNI) in any action against the City, the Architect, or anyone acting on behalf of either of them.
  3. Retainage. The City will retain ten percent (10%) from the invoice sums approved and due CNI up to a total of fifty percent (50%) of the Public Improvements Project GMP, including approved change orders ("Change Orders").    The amount so retained
 
 
10
 
 
("Retainage") will be released to CNI in accordance with Section 4(R-1)(11) below. The DPD Commissioner, at the DPD Commissioner's sole discretion, may increase the amount of the Retainage withheld if the DPD Commissioner considers CNI's performance or the progress of the Work to be such that the City will likely incur damages, including but not limited to liquidated damages, in excess of the amount of Retainage. CNI must not withhold retainage from its Subcontractors in excess of the percentage Retainage withheld by the City from payments to CNI, and must release Retainage to the Subcontractors under Section 4(R-1)(12) or the prompt payment to Subcontractors required by Section 4(R-1)(13).
  1. Payments Withheld. No payment shall be made to CNI until certificates of insurance, the Bond, or other evidence of compliance by CNI with all the requirements of the Agreement for insurance and bonds have been provided to the City. Further, no payments on the basis of Work performed by a Subcontractor shall be paid until copies of all bonds required and any certificates of insurance required of the Subcontractors by the Agreement have been filed with the City. The Authorized City Representative may decline processing a Payment Application if, in the DPD Commissioner's opinion, the Payment Application is not adequately supported. If CNI and Authorized City Representative cannot agree on a revised amount, the Authorized City Representative will process the Payment Application in the amount the DPD Commissioner deems appropriate. The Authorized City Representative may decline to process any Payment Application or may rescind in whole or in part any approval previously made to such extent as may be necessary in his/her opinion because of any failure of CNI to perform any obligation under the Agreement, including but not limited to:
  1. CNI's failure or refusal to provide the Authorized City Representative the required Project Schedule or monthly schedule updates and obtain the Authorized City Representative's approval for either as required by the Agreement.
  2. CNI's failure to remedy defective Work following written notice from the City.
  3. CNI's failure to make payments due to Subcontractors, employees, or material suppliers or for labor, materials or equipment once payment is received by CNI, or provide partial lien waivers with Payment Applications as provided herein.
  4. CNI's persistent failure to maintain progress of the Work in accordance with the Project Schedule, or failure to carry out the Work in accordance with the Agreement as determined by the City.
  5. CNI's refusal to follow City, state, federal, or Contract safety and security requirements.
  6. CNI's failure to provide a plan to meet the requirements of the Chicago Residency Ordinance pursuant to Section 4(JJ) hereof.
 
The City's rights under this Section 4(R-1)(10) are cumulative to any other rights provided under the Agreement.
  1. Release of Retainage.
 
(a)     At 75% Completion of the Public Improvements. When the Authorized
 
 
11
 
 
City Representative determines that CNI has satisfactorily completed 75% of the Public Improvements, based upon invoice sums approved and due CNI, Retainage may be reduced to an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the Guaranteed Maximum Price, including any approved or authorized Change Orders and Amendments.
  1. At Project Substantial Completion. When the Public Improvements are substantially completed, CNI must notify the Authorized City Representative, in writing, that the Public Improvements will be ready for inspection and/or testing on a definite date. Such notice must be given at least seven (7) calendar days in advance of said date. If the Authorized City Representative concurs that the Public Improvements will be ready for inspection and/or testing on the date given, the DPD Commissioner and other parties will make such inspection as is convenient for all parties, but within a, reasonable period of time. The scheduling of the inspection to determine whether the Public Improvements are substantially complete shall not relieve CNI of its responsibilities under the Agreement. CNI is required to furnish access for the inspection. If the DPD Commissioner finds that the Work is acceptable under the Agreement and has been fully and satisfactorily performed on a timely basis, Retainage may be reduced to an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Guaranteed Maximum Price, including any approved Change Orders and Amendments, provided that CNI has furnished: (i) MBE / WBE final lien waivers, MBE/WBE conditional final lien waivers, or an affidavit of the MBEAA/BE stating the final amount earned; (ii) complete certified payrolls; (iii) documentation of the turn over of "as-built" drawings, record shop drawings, and product data; (iv) spare stock of materials, spare parts, accessories, special tools, O & M manuals, guarantees, warranties; and (v) all other items required by this Agreement or the Authorized City Representative.
  2. At Project Final Completion. The remaining Retainage will be paid when all remaining Work and punch list Work is complete and CNI submits to the Authorized City Representative a sworn affidavit that states the following:
  1. All payrolls, bills for materials and equipment, and all other indebtedness connected with the Work for which the City might in any way be responsible, have been paid or otherwise satisfied.
  2. The "CNI's Sworn Statement and Affidavit" for final release of retainage has been provided to the Authorized City Representative.
  3. All claims made by subcontractors of any tier, suppliers, and others against CNI, the City, any agents of the City, the DPD Commissioner or Authorized City Representative have been resolved.
  4. "Final Waiver of Lien and CNI's Affidavit" forms for all subcontractors of any tier have been provided to the Authorized City Representative.
  5. All warranties and guarantees required by the Agreement have been provided to the Authorized City Representative.

  2. The surety's written consent, signed by its authorized representative, for final payment to be made directly to CNI, has been provided to the Authorized City Representative.
  3. CNI agrees that acceptance of final payment will constitute a general release to the City, its representatives, officials and employees of all claims of liability for anything done or furnished or relating to the Work required by the Agreement or for any act or neglect of the City or its agents, officials and employees relating to or connected with the Agreement except as may be mutually agreed and excepted in writing at the time of final payment.
  4. As-built documentation including but not limited to as-built drawings, as-built shop drawings and operation and maintenance manuals have been provided to the Authorized City Representative.
  5. All other documents reasonably requested by the Authorized City Representative have been provided.
  6. CNI must remove all of CNI's trailers, equipment, leftover materials, and trash from the Subject Property, staging area(s) or anywhere else on the Subject Property. CNI must also restore CNI's staging area(s) to its pre-construction condition. If CNI does not comply with this requirement, the Authorized City Representative may provide written notice to comply within a period of time determined by the Authorized City Representative. If CNI fails to comply with the written notice, the Authorized City Representative may have the work done by others, and deduct the charge from CNI's Retainage.
 
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Authorized City Representative, in his sole discretion, may decline to release all or a portion of Retainage if the Authorized City Representative considers CNI's performance or the progress of the Work to be such that the City has incurred or will likely incur damages greater than the Retainage, including but not limited to liquidated damages.
 
(12)    Prompt Payment to Subcontractors.
  1. CNI must state the requirements of this Prompt Payment provision in all subcontracts and purchase orders. If CNI fails to incorporate these provisions in all subcontracts and purchase orders, the provisions of this Section are deemed to be incorporated in all subcontracts and purchase orders. CNI and the subcontractors have a continuing obligation to make prompt payment to their respective subcontractors. Compliance with this obligation is a condition of CNI's participation and that of its subcontractors in the Work.
  2. CNI must make payment to its Subcontractors within fourteen (14) days of receipt of payment from the City for each monthly Payment Application, but only if the
 
 
13
 
 
Subcontractor has satisfactorily completed its Work in accordance with this Agreement and provided CNI with all of the documents and information required of CNI by this Section 4(R-1), "Payment to CNI". CNI may delay or postpone payment for a Payment Application when the subcontractor's Work or materials do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement, and CNI is acting in good faith and not in retaliation for a subcontractor exercising legal or contractual rights.
  1. CNI must make final payment to its Subcontractors within fourteen (14) days of receipt of such final payment from the City, and after the Subcontractor has satisfactorily completed all of its Work, including but not limited to, completion of punch list work, providing final lien waivers, and providing all of the documents required by this Agreement for payment of Retainage at final completion of the Public Improvements as provided for in Section 4(R-1)(11). Retainage must be paid to subcontractors as required by this section, regardless of whether the Public Improvements have been determined to have reached substantial completion. CNI may delay or postpone payment of Retainage if the Subcontractor's Work or materials do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement, CNI has substantial grounds for and has acted reasonably in making the determination, and CNI is acting in good faith and not in retaliation for a Subcontractor exercising legal or contractual rights.
  2. CNI must make payment to Subcontractors so that they receive it within fourteen (14) days of CNI's receipt of payment from the City. Payment is deemed received by the Subcontractor at the time of hand delivery by CNI, or three (3) calendar days after mailing by CNI.
  3. To the extent feasible, to facilitate the flow of information to Subcontractor, the Authorized City Representative will post at the field office located at the Subject Property and on the City website (www.cityofchicago.org), a list of CNI's Payment Applications, including the subcontractors identified in them, submitted to the City for payment and the date of payments made to CNI by the City.
  4. CNI must not delay or refuse to timely submit pay requests for a Subcontractor's work or materials. The City may construe such delay or refusal as CNI's failure to act in good faith. "Timely", in this context, means within thirty (30) days after the portion of the Subcontractor's work that the Subcontractor has invoiced is in place in the Public Improvements or the materials delivered to the City (or off-site if payments for off-site delivery are permitted). In addition, CNI must not delay or postpone payment for an undisputed portion of a Subcontractor's invoice or in connection with claims or disputes involving different Payment Applications on the same project or different projects.
  5. The DPD Commissioner may withhold payment from CNI when the DPD Commissioner determines that CNI has not complied with this Section 4(R-1)(12).
  6. These provisions do not confer any rights in Subcontractors against the City. Nothing in this section is to be construed to limit the rights of and remedies available to the City, including but not limited to various rights under the Agreement.
 
(13)    Subcontractor Claims. CNI must pay all lawful undisputed claims made against it by its subcontractors and all lawful undisputed claims made against CNI by other third
 
 
14
 
 
persons arising out of, in connection with, or because of its performance of this Agreement. CNI will cause all of its subcontractors to pay all lawful undisputed claims made against them. In the event such lawful undisputed claims are not satisfied, the City is hereby empowered to disburse such sums for and on account of CNI directly to the respective parties to which such sums are due and owed upon ten (10) days written notice to CNI.
  1. Pay Estimates and Payments Subject to Review. Before issuance of a Certificate and for a period of three (3) years after issuance of such Certificate, the City shall not be precluded or estopped by any measurement, estimate, or certificate made by CNI or any subcontractor from showing the true amount and character of the portion of the Work performed and materials furnished by or on behalf of CNI relating to such Certificate, or from showing that any such measurement, estimate, or certificate is untrue or incorrectly made, or that such portion of the Work or materials do not conform in fact to the Agreement. Subject to Illinois law, the City will not be precluded or estopped, notwithstanding any such measurement, estimate, or certificate and payment in accordance therewith, from recovering from CNI and its sureties such damages as the City may sustain by reason of CNI's failure to comply with the terms of the Agreement.
  2. SalariesAA/ages. Salaries of all employees of CNI performing Services or Work will be paid unconditionally and not less often than once a month without deduction or rebate on any account, except for payroll deductions as may be required by law. If there is any underpayment of salaries by CNI, the City may withhold, out of payments due to CNI, an amount sufficient to pay to employees the difference between the salaries required to be paid and the salaries actually paid such employees for the total number of hours worked.
  3. No Waiver of Legal Rights. Neither the acceptance by the City nor any payment by the City will operate as a waiver of any portion of the Agreement, or of any power herein reserved, or any right to damages herein provided. If the City elects to waive any breach of this Agreement, that waiver will not be held to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. The City will not be precluded or estopped from showing the true amount and character of the Work performed and materials furnished by CNI, or from showing that any measurement, estimate, or certificate is untrue or incorrectly made, or that the Work or materials do not conform to this Agreement. The City will not be precluded or estopped from recovering from CNI and/or its sureties such damages as the City may sustain by reason of CNI's failure to comply with the terms of the Agreement.
  4. Liens. Whenever the City receives notice in writing of a lien or claim of money due from CNI to any Subcontractor, worker, or employee for Work performed or for materials or equipment furnished and used in or about the Work, the City may direct that the amount of such claim be deducted from payments due or to become due CNI and withheld by the City until such claim has been paid or otherwise discharged; provided, however that, to the extent permitted by law, the City shall not direct that the amount of such claim be deducted or withheld from payments due or to become due to CNI if CNI demonstrates that (i) all documentation required by the Agreement for payment of said amount to Subcontractor, worker or employee or for such materials and equipment furnished and used in or about the Work has been properly submitted to the City by CNI, or (ii) CNI has furnished a bond as security for the lien. This provision is to be construed as being solely for the benefit of the City, and will not require the City to determine or adjust any claims or disputes between CNI and its Subcontractors,
 
 
15
 
 
workers, or employees, or to withhold any money for their protection, unless the City elects to do so. This provision is not to be construed as conferring any rights hereunder for the benefit of Subcontractors, workers or employees, or as enlarging or altering the application or effect of existing lien laws. The final payment will not become due until CNI delivers to the City complete release of all liens, financial obligations or claims from CNI, Subcontractors, and other agents acting on its behalf in connection with the Work, arising out of the Work, and an affidavit that so far as it has knowledge or information, the releases include all the labor and material for which a claim could be made or a lien could be filed. If any lien remains unsatisfied after all payments have been made, CNI must refund to the City all moneys that the City may be compelled to pay in discharging such lien, including all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees.
 
R-2.   With respect to matters related to liens:
  1. CNI will notify its contractors and subcontractors that no mechanics' lien under the Illinois Mechanics Lien Act. 770 ILCS 60/1, et. seq., will be permitted to arise, be filed or maintained against public funds, the Public Improvements, the Subject Property or any part thereof or any interest therein, or any improvements thereon, or against any monies due or to become due to CNI on account of any work, labor, services, materials, equipment, or other items performed or furnished for or in connection with the Public Improvements; and CNI, for itself and its contractors and subcontractors, does hereby expressly waive, release, and relinquish such liens and all rights to file or maintain such liens; and agrees further that this waiver of liens and waiver of the rights to file or maintain such liens will be an independent covenant.
  2. If any of CNI's contractors, subcontractors, employees, officials, agents, or any other person directly or indirectly acting for, through, or on their behalf files or maintains a lien or claim under the Illinois Mechanics' Lien Act, 770 ILCS 60/1, et. seq., against public funds or against any monies due or to become due to any contractors or subcontractors on account of any of the Public Improvements, labor, services, materials, equipment, or other items performed or furnished for or in connection with the Public Improvements, CNI agrees to cause such liens and claims to be satisfied, removed or discharged within 30 days from the date of filing, provided that the City may extend the 30 day period if (i) the City determines that such lien claim cannot be so satisfied, removed, or discharged in such period and (ii) CNI, in the City's reasonable determination, is proceeding diligently to cause such liens or claims to be satisfied, removed or discharged, or CNI has posted a bond covering such liens or claims in an amount not less than 110% of such liens or claims. The City has the right, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided under this Agreement or by law, to cause such liens or claims to be satisfied, removed or discharged by any means at CNI's sole cost, such cost to include reasonable legal fees and shall be reimbursable in full with interest from the date of payment at the rate set at 12% per annum.
 
S. (1) It is an unlawful employment practice for CNI to fail to hire, to refuse to hire, to discharge, or to discriminate against any individual with respect to compensation, or the terms, conditions, or privileges of employment, because of such individual's race, color, religion, gender, age, disability, or national origin; or to limit, segregate, or classify employees or applicants for employment in any way which would deprive or tend to deprive any individual of employment opportunities or otherwise, adversely affect such individual's status as an employee, because of such individual's race, color, religion, gender, age, disability, or national origin.

CNI further covenants that in the performance of this Agreement, no person having any such interest must be employed. CNI agrees that if the City, by the DPD Commissioner in his or her reasonable judgment, determines that any of CNI's work for others conflicts with the Public Improvements, CNI's Entities must terminate such other services immediately upon request ofthe City.
 
U. Pursuant to Section 2-156-030(b) of the Municipal Code of Chicago, it is illegal for any elected official of the City, or any person acting at the direction of such official, to contact, either orally or in writing, any other City official or employee with respect to any matter involving any person with whom the elected official has a business relationship, or to participate in any discussion in any City council committee hearing or in any City council meeting or to vote on any matter involving the person with whom an elected official has a business relationship.

"Debt" means a specified sum of money owed to the City for which the period granted for payment has expired.
 
Notwithstanding the provisions of this section above, no such debt(s) or outstanding parking violation complaint(s) are off set from any such price or compensation due if one or more of the following conditions are met:
  1. The contracting party has entered into an agreement with the Department of Finance, or other appropriate City department for the payment of all outstanding parking violation complaints and/or debts owed to the City and the contracting party is in compliance with the agreement; or
  2. The contracting party is contesting liability for or the amount of the debt in a pending administrative or judicial proceeding; or

All construction or alteration undertaken by CNI in connection with this Agreement shall be performed in compliance with all Federal, State and local laws and regulations regarding accessibility standards for disabled or environmentally limited persons including, but not limited to the following: American with Disabilities Act, P.L. 101-336(1990) and the Uniform Federal Accessibility Stands and; the Illinois Environmental Barriers Act, 410 ILCS 25/1 et seg. (1991), and the regulations promulgated thereto at 71 III. Adm. Code Ch. 1, Sec. 400.110. In the event that the above cited standards are inconsistent, CNI shall comply with the standard providing greater accessibility.
 
AA. CNI, in contracting work for the Public Improvements, must comply with the provisions of 330 ILCS 55/0.01 et. seq., which requires that a preference be given to veterans in the employment and appointment to fill positions in the construction, addition, or alteration of all public works. In the employment of labor (except executive, administrative and supervisory positions) preference may be given only where the individuals are available and qualified to perform work with respect to the Public Improvements to which the employment relates. CNI must ensure that the foregoing provision is inserted in all contracts entered in with any contractors and subcontractors and labor organizations which furnish skilled, unskilled and craft
 
 
19
 
 
union skilled labor, or which may provide any material, labor, or services in connection with this Agreement.
 
BB. To the extent permitted by law, this Agreement shall be subject to all provisions of the "Steel Products Procurement Act," 30 ILCS 565/1 et seg., as it may be amended from time to time. Steel Products issued or supplied in the performance of this Agreement or any contract, subcontract related hereto shall be manufactured or produced in the United States. For purposes of this Section "United States" means the United States and any place subject to the jurisdiction thereof and "Steel Products" means products rolled, formed, shaped, drawn, extruded, forged, cast, fabricated, or otherwise similarly processed or processed by a combination of two or more such operations, from Steel made in the United States by the open hearth, basic oxygen, electric furnace, Bessemer or other steel making processes. Knowing violation of this Section may result in the filing and prosecution of a complaint by the Attorney General of the State of Illinois and will subject violators to a fine of the greater of $5,000 or the payment price received as a result of such violation.
 
CC. CNI, in contracting work for the Public Improvements, shall use only Illinois laborers in the performance of this Agreement to the extent (1) required by the Employment of Illinois Laborers on Public Works Projects Act, 30 ILCS, 570/0.01, as amended from time to time and (2) otherwise permitted by law.
 
DD. The Child Support Arrearage Ordinance, Municipal Code of Chicago, Section 2-92-415, furthers the City's interest in contracting with entities which demonstrate financial responsibility, integrity and lawfulness, and finds that it is especially inequitable for contractors to obtain the benefits of public funds under City contracts while its owners fail to pay court-ordered child support, and shift the support of their dependents onto the public treasury.
 
In accordance with Section 2-92-415 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, if the Circuit Court of Cook County or an Illinois court of competent jurisdiction has issued an order declaring one or more Substantial Owner(s) in arrearage on their child support obligations and: (1) such Substantial Owner has not entered into a court-approved agreement for the payment of all such child support owed, or (2) such Substantial Owner is not in compliance with a court-approved agreement for the payment of all such child support owed, (see Certification of compliance with Child Support Orders in Disclosure Affidavit), then:
 
For those bidders in competitive bid contracts, the City shall assess an 8% penalty. This penalty shall increase their bid price for the purpose of canvassing the bids in order to determine the lowest responsible bidder. This penalty shall apply only for the purposes of comparing bid amounts and shall not affect the amount of any contract payment.
 
For purposes of this section, "Substantial Owner" means any person who owns or holds a 10% or more Percentage of Interest in the bidder; where the bidder is an individual or sole proprietorship, substantial owner means that individual or sole proprietorship. The City acknowledges that CNI, as a not-for-profit corporation, has no Substantial Owners.
 
"Percentage of Interest" includes direct, indirect and beneficial interests in CNI. Indirect or beneficial interest means that an interest in CNI is held by a corporation, joint venture, trust, partnership, association, estate or other legal entity, in which the individual holds an interest, or by agent(s) or nominees(s) on behalf of an individual or entity. For example, if Corporation B holds or owns a 20% interest in CNI, and an individual or entity has a 50% or more percentage
 
 
20
 
 
of interest in Corporation B, then such individual or entity indirectly has a 10% or more percentage of interest in CNI. If Corporation B is held by another entity, then this analysis similarly must be applied to that next entity. CNI represents there are no individuals or entities that have any direct, indirect or beneficial interest in CNI, as it is a not-for-profit corporation, and the City acknowledges such representation.
 
The provisions of this Section shall only apply where not otherwise prohibited by federal, state or local law; provided, however, that it is expressly acknowledged by the City that it is entering into this Agreement with CNI without competitive bidding for the Public Improvements work.
 
EE. The City through the passage of the MacBride Principles Ordinance seeks to promote fair and equal employment opportunities and labor practices for religious minorities in Northern Ireland and provide a better working environment for all citizens in North Ireland.
 
In accordance with Section 2-92-580 of the Municipal Code of Chicago, if the primary contractor conducts any business operations in Northern Ireland, it is hereby required that the contractor shall make all reasonable and good faith efforts to conduct any business operations in Northern Ireland in accordance with the MacBride Principles for Northern Ireland as defined in Illinois Public Act 85-1390 (1988 III. Laws 3220).
 
FF.     Section 2-92-610 of the Municipal Code of Chicago requires eligible contractors
and their subcontractors to pay a living wage (currently $      per hour minimum base wage)
to covered employees employed in the performance of this Agreement. CNI is an eligible contractor if at any time during the performance of this Agreement, CNI has 25 or more full-time employees. If CNI is, or becomes eligible, CNI and its contractors and subcontractors must pay at least the base wage to covered employees. Covered employees are: security guards (but only if CNI and its contractors and subcontractors employ in the aggregate 25 or more of them), and, in any number, parking attendants, day laborers, home and health care workers, cashiers, elevator operators, custodial workers and clerical workers. Section 2-92-610 does not apply to not-for-profit corporations with federal 501(3) tax exempt status. Also, if the work being done under this Agreement is subject to payment of prevailing wages, and the prevailing wages are higher than the base wage, then prevailing wage rates apply and must be paid. CNI represents that it is a not-for-profit corporations with federal 501(3) tax exempt status, and the City acknowledges such representation.
 
 
GG. CNI shall ensure that, to the extent applicable, services provided hereunder comply with any Buy America provisions of the Federal government and/or any similar provisions of the State or City.
 
HH. All wages for work on the Public Improvements shall be paid in accordance with the Prevailing Wage Act, 820 ILCS 130/0.01 et seq.
 
II. CNI, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, hereby agrees, and shall contractually obligate its or their various contractors, subcontractors or any affiliate of CNI operating on City property or the Subject Property with respect to the Public Improvements and the Work (collectively, with CNI, the "Employers" and individually an "Employer") to agree, that for the term of this Agreement with respect to CNI and during the period of any other party's provision of services in connection with the construction of the Public Improvements:
 
 
21
 
  1. No Employer shall discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income as defined in the City of Chicago Human Rights Ordinance, Chapter 2-160, Section 2-160-010 et seg., Municipal Code, except as otherwise provided by said ordinance and as amended from time to time (the "Human Rights Ordinance"). Each Employer shall take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are hired and employed without discrimination based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income and are treated in a non-discriminatory manner with regard to all job-related matters, including without limitation: employment, upgrading, demotion or transfer; recruitment or recruitment advertising; layoff or termination; rates of pay or other forms of compensation; and selection for training, including apprenticeship. Each Employer agrees to post in conspicuous places, available to employees and applicants for employment, notices to be provided by the City setting forth the provisions of this nondiscrimination clause. In addition, the Employers, in all solicitations or advertisements for employees, shall state that all qualified applicants shall receive consideration for employment without discrimination based upon race, religion, color, sex, national origin or ancestry, age, handicap or disability, sexual orientation, military discharge status, marital status, parental status or source of income.
  2. To the greatest extent feasible, each Employer is required to present opportunities for training and employment of low- and moderate-income residents of the City; and to provide that contracts for work in connection with the construction of the Public Improvements be awarded to business concerns that are located in, or owned in substantial part by persons residing in, the City.
  3. Each Employer shall comply with all federal, state and local equal employment and affirmative action statutes, rules and regulations, including but not limited to the City's Human Rights Ordinance and the Illinois Human Rights Act, 775 ILCS 5/1-101 et seg. (1993), and any subsequent amendments and regulations promulgated thereto.
  4. Each Employer, in order to demonstrate compliance with the terms of this Section, shall cooperate with and promptly and accurately respond to inquiries by the City, which has the responsibility to observe and report compliance with equal employment opportunity regulations of federal, state and municipal agencies.
  5. Each Employer shall include the foregoing provisions of subsections (a) through (d) in every contract entered into in connection with the Work, and shall require inclusion of these provisions in every subcontract entered into by any subcontractors, and every agreement with any affiliate operating on City property, including the Subject Property, with respect to the Public Improvements and the Work, so that each such provision shall be binding upon each contractor, subcontractor or affiliate, as the case may be.
 
 
 
 
 
22
 
 
(f) Failure to comply with the employment obligations described in this Section 4(11) shall be a basis for the City to pursue remedies under the provisions of Section 14 hereof.
JJ. CNI agrees for itself and its successors and assigns, and shall contractually obligate any other General Contractor, if different from CNI, and shall itself, or cause the General Contractor, if different from CNI, to contractually obligate its subcontractors, as applicable, to agree, that during the construction of the Public Improvements they shall comply with the minimum percentage of total worker hours performed by actual residents of the City as specified in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code of Chicago (at least 50 percent of the total worker hours worked by persons on the Subject Property of the Public Improvements shall be performed by actual residents of the City); provided, however, that in addition to complying with this percentage, CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor shall be required to make good faith efforts to utilize qualified residents of the City in both unskilled and skilled labor positions.
 
CNI may request a reduction or waiver of this minimum percentage level of Chicagoans as provided for in Section 2-92-330 of the Municipal Code of Chicago in accordance with standards and procedures developed by the Chief Procurement Officer of the City.
 
"Actual residents of the City" shall mean persons domiciled within the City. The domicile is an individual's one and only true, fixed and permanent home and principal establishment.
 
CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor shall provide for the maintenance of adequate employee residency records to show that actual Chicago residents are employed in the construction of the Public Improvements. Each Employer shall maintain copies of personal documents supportive of every Chicago employee's actual record of residence.
 
Weekly certified payroll reports (U.S. Department of Labor Form WH-347 or equivalent) shall be submitted to the DPD Commissioner of the DPD in triplicate, which shall identify clearly the actual residence of every employee on each submitted certified payroll. The first time that an employee's name appears on a payroll, the date that the Employer hired the employee should be written in after the employee's name.
 
CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor shall provide full access to their employment records to the Chief Procurement Officer, the DPD Commissioner, the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department, the Inspector General or any duly authorized representative of any of them. CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor shall maintain all relevant personnel data and records for a period of at least three (3) years after final acceptance of the Public Improvements.
 
At the direction of the City, affidavits and other supporting documentation will be required of CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor to verify or clarify an employee's actual address when doubt or lack of clarity has arisen.
 
Good faith efforts on the part of CNI, any other General Contractor and each subcontractor to provide utilization of actual Chicago residents (but not sufficient for the granting of a waiver request as provided for in the standards and procedures developed by the Chief Procurement Officer) shall not suffice to replace the actual, verified achievement of the
 
 
23
 
 
requirements of this Section concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents.
 
When the Public Improvements are completed, in the event that the City has determined that CNI has failed to ensure the fulfillment of the requirement of this Section concerning the worker hours performed by actual Chicago residents or failed to report in the manner as indicated above, the City will thereby be damaged in the failure to provide the benefit of demonstrable employment to Chicagoans to the degree stipulated in this Section 4(JJ). Therefore, in such a case of non-compliance, it is agreed that 1/20 of 1 percent (0.0005) of the aggregate hard construction costs set forth in the Project budget (the product of .0005 x such aggregate hard construction costs) (as the same shall be evidenced by approved contract value for the actual contracts) shall be surrendered by CNI to the City in payment for each percentage of shortfall toward the stipulated residency requirement. Failure to report the residency of employees entirely and correctly shall result in the surrender of the entire liquidated damages as if no Chicago residents were employed in either of the categories. The willful falsification of statements and the certification of payroll data may subject CNI, any other General Contractor and/or the subcontractors to prosecution. Any retainage to cover contract performance that may become due to CNI pursuant to Section 2-92-250 of the Municipal Code of Chicago may be withheld by the City pending the Chief Procurement Officer's determination as to whether CNI must surrender damages as provided in this Section.
 
Nothing herein provided shall be construed to be a limitation upon the "Notice of Requirements for Affirmative Action to Ensure Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246" and "Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity, Executive Order 11246," or other affirmative action required for equal opportunity under the provisions of this Agreement or related documents.
 
CNI shall cause or require the provisions of this Section 4(JJ) to be included in all construction contracts and subcontracts related to the Public Improvements.
 
KK. CNI agrees for itself and its successors and assigns, and, if necessary to meet the requirements set forth herein, shall contractually obligate any other General Contractor to agree that, during the construction ofthe Public Improvements:
 
(a) Consistent with the findings which support, as applicable, (i) the Minority-Owned and Women-Owned Business Enterprise Procurement Program, Section 2-92-420 et seq., Municipal Code of Chicago (the "Procurement Program"), and (ii) the Minority- and Women-Owned Business Enterprise Construction Program, Section 2-92-650 et seg;., Municipal Code of Chicago (the "Construction Program," and collectively with the Procurement Program, the "MBEAA/BE Program"), and in reliance upon the provisions of the MBE/WBE Program to the extent contained in, and as qualified by, the provisions of this Section 4(KK), during the course of construction of the Public Improvements, at least the following percentages of the Project Budget (less the acquisition cost of any real property or interests in real property or any portion thereof, if any,), as these budgeted amounts may be reduced to reflect decreased actual costs, shall be expended for contract participation by MBEs or WBEs:
  1. At least 24 percent by MBEs.
  2. At least 4 percent by WBEs.
 
 
 
 
24
 
 
(b)      For purposes of this Section 4(KK) only, CNI (and any party to whom contract is
let by CNI in connection with the Public Improvements) shall be deemed a "contractor" and this
Agreement (and any contract let by CNI in connection with the Public Improvements) shall be
deemed a "contract" as such terms are defined in Sections 2-92-420 and 2-92-670, Municipal
Code of Chicago, as applicable.
 
(c)      Consistent with Sections 2-92-440 and 2-92-720, Municipal Code of Chicago, CNI's
MBE/WBE commitment may be achieved in part by CNI's status as an MBE or WBE (but only
to the extent of any actual work performed on the Public Improvements by CNI), or by a joint
venture with one or more MBEs or WBEs (but only to the extent of the lesser of (i) the MBE or
WBE participation in such joint venture or (ii) the amount of any actual work performed on the
Public Improvements by the MBE or WBE), by CNI utilizing a MBE or a WBE as a General
Contractor (but only to the extent of any actual work performed on the Public Improvements by
the General Contractor), by subcontracting or causing the General Contractor to subcontract a
portion of the Public Improvements to one or more MBEs or WBEs, or by the purchase of
materials used in the Public Improvements from one or more MBEs or WBEs, or by any
combination of the foregoing. Those entities which constitute both a MBE and a WBE shall not
be credited more than once with regard to CNI's MBE/WBE commitment as described in this
Section 4(KK). In accordance with Section 2-92-730, Municipal Code of Chicago, CNI shall not
substitute any MBE or WBE General Contractor or subcontractor without the prior written
approval ofthe City.
 
(d)      CNI shall deliver quarterly reports to the City during the construction of the Public
Improvements describing its efforts to achieve compliance with this MBEAA/BE commitment.
Such reports shall include inter alia the name and business address of each MBE and WBE
solicited by CNI or any other General Contractor to work on the Public Improvements, and the
responses received from such solicitation, the name and business address of each MBE or
WBE actually involved in the Public Improvements, a description of the work performed or
products or services supplied, the date and amount of such work, product or service, and such
other information as may assist DPD in determining CNI's compliance with this MBEAA/BE
commitment. The City shall have access to CNI's applicable books and records, including,
without limitation, payroll records, books of account and tax returns, and records and books of
account, on five (5) business days' notice, to allow the City to review CNI's compliance with its
commitment to MBE/WBE participation and the status of any MBE or WBE performing any
portion ofthe Public Improvements.
 
(e)      Upon the disqualification of any MBE or WBE General Contractor or
subcontractor, if such status was misrepresented by the disqualified party, CNI shall be
obligated to discharge or cause to be discharged the disqualified General Contractor or
subcontractor and, if possible, identify and engage a qualified MBE or WBE as a replacement.
For purposes of this Subsection (e), the disqualification procedures are further described in
Sections 2-92-540 and 2-92-730, Municipal Code of Chicago, as applicable.
 
(f)      Any reduction or waiver of CNI's MBE/WBE commitment as described in this
Section 4(KK) shall be undertaken in accordance with Sections 2-92-450 and 2-92-730,
Municipal Code of Chicago, as applicable.
 
(g)      Prior to the commencement of construction of the Public Improvements, CNI, any
other General Contractor and all major subcontractors shall be required to meet with the
monitoring staff of the City with regard to CNI's compliance with its obligations under this
 
 
25
 
 
Section 4(KK). During this meeting, CNI shall demonstrate its plan to achieve its obligations under this Section 4(KK), the sufficiency of which shall be approved by such board or department. During the construction of the Public Improvements, CNI shall submit the documentation required by this Section 4(KK) to the monitoring staff of the City, including the following: (i) subcontractor's activity report; (ii) contractor's certification concerning labor standards and prevailing wage requirements; (iii) contractor letter of understanding; (iv) monthly utilization report; (v) authorization for payroll agent; (vi) certified payroll; (vii) evidence that MBEAA/BE contractor associations have been informed of the Public Improvements via written notice and hearings; and (viii) evidence of compliance with job creation/job retention requirements. Failure to submit such documentation on a timely basis, or a determination by the City, upon analysis of the documentation, that CNI is not complying with its obligations hereunder shall, upon the delivery of written notice to CNI, be deemed an Event of Default or breach hereunder. Upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, in addition to any other remedies provided in this Agreement, the City may: (1) issue a written demand to CNI to halt construction of the Public Improvements, (2) withhold any further payment to CNI or any general contractor, or (3) seek any other remedies against CNI available at law or in equity.
 
LL. All work with respect to the Public Improvements shall conform to all applicable ordinances, codes, rules and regulations in effect as of the date of this Agreement and all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations, codes, rules and ordinances including, without limitation, the City's requirements regarding subdivision matters.
 
MM. During construction ofthe Public Improvements, the appropriate City department shall have the right at any time and from time to time to enter upon the Subject Property and the Public Improvements for the purpose of conducting such inspections as are required by the terms of this Agreement or as the City may otherwise deem appropriate.
 
4.5 Certificates of Completion. Upon final inspection and acceptance by the applicable City departments of the Public Improvements listed below for the respective portions of the Work and upon CNI's written request DPD will issue to CNI a certificate of completion of construction (a "Certificate") certifying that CNI has fulfilled its obligation to complete the portion of the Work covered by the applicable Certificate in compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, subject to the 1-year warranty set forth in this Agreement. DPD will respond to CNI's written request for a Certificate within 30 days by issuing either a Certificate or a written statement detailing the ways in which the portion of the Work for which such Certificate was requested does not conform to this Agreement or has not been satisfactorily completed and the measures which must be taken by CNI in order to obtain the requested Certificate. CNI may resubmit a written request for a Certificate upon completion of such measures, and DPD will respond within 30 days following the same procedures as for the initial request. Such process may repeat until the City issues the requested Certificate.

    2. the. commencement of any proceedings in bankruptcy by or against CNI or for the liquidation or reorganization of CNI, or alleging that CNI is insolvent or unable to pay its debts as they mature, or for the readjustment or arrangement of CNI's debts, whether under the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any other state or federal law, now or hereafter existing for the relief of debtors, or the commencement of any analogous statutory or nonstatutory proceedings involving CNI; provided, however, that if such commencement of proceedings is involuntary, such action shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the commencement of such proceedings;
    3. the appointment of a receiver or trustee for CNI, for any substantial part of CNI's assets or the institution of any proceedings for the dissolution, or the full or partial liquidation, or the merger or consolidation, of CNI; provided, however, that if such appointment or commencement of proceedings is involuntary, such action shall not constitute an Event of Default unless such appointment is not revoked or such proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days after the commencement thereof;
    4. the entry of any judgment or order against CNI which remains unsatisfied or undischarged and in effect for sixty (60) days after such entry without a stay of enforcement or execution;
  1. [reserved];
  2. the dissolution of CNI; or
    1. the institution in any court of a criminal proceeding (other than a misdemeanor) against CNI, which is not dismissed within thirty (30) days, or the indictment of CNI for any crime (other than a misdemeanor).
  1. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the City may terminate this Agreement and all related agreements, and my suspend disbursement of City funds. The City may, in any court of competent jurisdiction by any action or proceeding at law or in equity, pursue and secure any available remedy, including but not limited to injunctive relief or the specific performance ofthe agreements contained herein.
  2. In the event CNI shall fail to perform a monetary covenant which it is required to perform under this Agreement, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, an Event of Default shall not be deemed to have occurred unless CNI has failed to perform such monetary covenant within ten (10) days of its receipt of a written notice from the City specifying that it has failed to perform such monetary covenant. In the event CNI shall fail to perform a non-monetary covenant which CNI is required to perform under
 
 
30
 
 
this Agreement, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, an Event of Default shall not be deemed to have occurred unless CNI has failed to cure such default within thirty (30) days of its receipt of a written notice from the City specifying the nature of the default: provided however, with respect to those non-monetary defaults which are not capable of being cured within such thirty (30) day period, CNI shall not be deemed to have committed an Event of Default under this Agreement if it has commenced to cure the alleged default within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently and continuously prosecutes the cure of such default until the same has been cured; provided further that if a specific cure period is provided for elsewhere in this Agreement that differs from the general notice and/or cure periods set forth in this Section 14(C), such specific notice and/or cure period shall control.
  1. Except as might otherwise be expressly provided herein, CNI may not sell, assign or otherwise transfer their interest in this Agreement in whole or in part without the written consent of the City.
  2. CNI agrees that CNI, any person or entity who directly or indirectly has an ownership or beneficial interest in CNI ("Owners"), spouses and domestic partners of such Owners, CNI's subcontractors, any person or entity who directly or indirectly has an ownership or beneficial interest in any subcontractors of more than 7.5 percent ("Sub-owners") and spouses and domestic partners of such Sub-owners (CNI and all the other preceding classes of persons and entities are together, the "Identified Parties"), shall not make a contribution of any amount to the Mayor of the City (the "Mayor") or to his political fundraising committee (i) after execution of this bid, proposal or Agreement by CNI, (ii) while this Agreement or any Other Contract is executory, (iii) during the term of this Agreement or any Other Contract between CNI and the City, or (iv) during any period while an extension of this Agreement or any Other Contract is being sought or negotiated.
 
CNI represents and warrants that since the date of public advertisement of the specification, request for qualifications, request for proposals or request for information (or any combination of those requests) or, if not competitively procured, from the date the City approached CNI or the date CNI approached the City, as applicable, regarding the formulation of this Agreement, no Identified Parties have made a contribution of any amount to the Mayor or to his political fundraising committee.
 
CNI agrees that it shall not: (a) coerce, compel or intimidate its employees to make a contribution of any amount to the Mayor or to the Mayor's political fundraising committee; (b) reimburse its employees for a contribution of any amount made to the Mayor or to the Mayor's political fundraising committee; or (c) bundle or solicit others to bundle contributions to the Mayor or to his political fundraising committee.
 
CNI agrees that the Identified Parties must not engage in any conduct whatsoever designed to intentionally violate this provision or Mayoral Executive Order No. 2011-4 or to entice, direct or solicit others to intentionally violate this provision or Mayoral Executive Order No. 2011-4.
 
CNI agrees that a violation of, non-compliance with, misrepresentation with respect to, or breach of any covenant or warranty under this provision or violation of Mayoral Executive Order No. 2011-4 constitutes a breach and default under this Agreement, and under any Other Contract for which no opportunity to cure will be granted. Such breach and default entitles the City to all remedies (including without limitation termination for default) under this Agreement,
 
 
31
 
 
under any Other Contract, at law and in equity. This provision amends any Other Contract and supersedes any inconsistent provision contained therein. If CNI violates this provision or Mayoral Executive Order No. 2011-4 prior to award of the Agreement resulting from this specification, the DPD Commissioner may reject CNI's bid.
 
For purposes of this provision:
 
"Bundle" means to collect contributions from more than one source which are then delivered by one person to the Mayor or to his political fundraising committee.
 
"Other Contract" means any other agreement with the City to which CNI are a party that is (i) formed under the authority of Chapter 2-92 of the Municipal Code; (ii) entered into for the purchase or lease of real or personal property; or (iii) for materials, supplies, equipment or services which are approved or authorized by the City Council.
 
"Contribution" means a "political contribution" as defined in Chapter 2-156 of the Municipal Code.
 
For purposes of this Section 15 only, individuals are "Domestic Partners" if they satisfy the following criteria: (a) they are each other's sole domestic partner, responsible for each other's common welfare; and (b) neither party is married; and (c) the partners are not related by blood closer than would bar marriage in the State of Illinois; and (d) each partner is at least 18 years of age, and the partners are the same sex, and the partners reside at the same residence; and (e) two of the following four conditions exist for the partners: (i) the partners have been residing together for at least 12 months, (ii) the partners have common or joint ownership of a residence, (iii) the partners have at least two of the following arrangements: (A) joint ownership of a motor vehicle; (B) a joint credit account; (C) a joint checking account; and (D) a lease for a residence identifying both domestic partners as tenants, and (iv) each partner identifies the other partner as a primary beneficiary in a will.
 
"Political fundraising committee" means a "political fundraising committee" as defined in Chapter 2-156 of the Municipal Code.
  1. If the City transfers all or any portion of the Subject Property to a third party (a "City Transferee") and gives CNI written notice of such transfer hereunder, then such City Transferee shall be a third party beneficiary of Sections 4(0) and 6(A) hereof and shall be entitled to exercise and enforce such provisions to the same extent that the City is so able.
  2. The Work includes certain environmental investigation and remediation of the Subject Property (the "Environmental Work"). The Environmental Work is described in more detail in Exhibit 8 hereto and certain specific requirements regarding the Environmental Work are contained in said Exhibit 8.
  3. (a) CNI acknowledges that the City is subject to the Illinois Freedom of Information Act, 5 ILCS 140/1 et. seq., as amended ("FOIA"). The FOIA requires the City to produce records (very broadly defined in the FOIA) in response to a FOIA request in a very short period of time, unless the records requested are exempt under the FOIA. If CNI receives a request from the City to produce records within the scope of FOIA, that would be otherwise required under this Agreement then CNI covenants to comply with such request within two (2) Business Days of the date of such request. Failure by CNI to timely comply with such request
 
 
32
 
 
will be a breach of this Agreement.
  1. Exempt Information. Documents that CNI submits to the City during the term of the Agreement that contain trade secrets and commercial or financial information may be exempt if disclosure would result in competitive harm. However, for documents submitted by CNI to be treated as a trade secret or information that would cause competitive harm, FOIA requires that CNI mark any such documents as "proprietary, privileged or confidential." If CNI marks a document as "proprietary, privileged and confidential", then DPD will evaluate whether such document may be withheld under the FOIA. DPD, in its discretion, will determine whether a document will be exempted from disclosure, and that determination is subject to review by the Illinois Attorney General's Office and/or the courts.
  2. CNI acknowledges that the City is subject to the Local Records Act, 50 ILCS 205/1 et. seq, as amended (the "Local Records Act"). The Local Records Act provides that public records may only be disposed of as provided in the Local Records Act. If requested by the City, CNI covenants to use its best efforts consistently applied to assist the City in its compliance with the Local Records Act concerning records arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated in the Agreement.
 
19. CNI agrees to indemnify, pay and hold the City, and its elected and appointed officials, employees, agents and affiliates (individually an "Indemnitee," and collectively the "Indemnitees") harmless from and against, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages (arising out of a third party action against the City), penalties, actions, judgments, suits, claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever, (and including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, court costs, and disbursements of counsel for such Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not such Indemnitees shall be designated a party thereto), that may be imposed on, suffered, incurred by or asserted against the Indemnitees by a third party in any manner relating to or arising out of:
  1. [intentionally omitted]; or
  2. CNI's failure to comply with any of the terms, covenants and conditions contained within this Agreement; or
  3. CNI's or any contractor's failure to pay, upon receipt of funds due and owing from the City, subcontractors or materialmen in connection with the Public Improvements; or
  4. the existence of any material misrepresentation or omission in this Agreement or any other document related to this Agreement that is the result of information supplied or omitted by CNI or its agents, employees, contractors or persons acting under the control or at the request of CNI or any affiliate of CNI; or
  5. CNI's failure to cure any misrepresentation in this Agreement or any other document or agreement relating hereto; or
  6. any act or omission by CNI or any affiliate of CNI;
 
 
 
 
33
 
 
provided, however, that CNI shall have no obligation to an Indemnitee arising from the wanton or willful misconduct of that Indemnitee. To the extent that the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, CNI will contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all indemnified liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them. The provisions of the undertakings and indemnification set out in this Section 19 will survive the termination of this Agreement.
 
20. CNI will keep and maintain separate, complete, accurate and detailed books and records necessary to reflect and fully disclose the total actual costs of the Work and to monitor construction of the Public Improvements. All such books, records and other documents, including but not limited to contractors' sworn statements, subcontracts, purchase orders, waivers of lien, paid receipts and invoices, will be available at CNI's offices for inspection, copying, audit and examination by an authorized representative of the City, at CNI's expense. CNI will not pay for salaries or fringe benefits of auditors or examiners. CNI must incorporate this right to inspect, copy, audit and examine all books and records into all contracts entered into by CNI with respect to the Public Improvements. The City shall provide three (3) Business Days' prior written notice to CNI in accordance with Section 12. The notice shall indicate the date and time of the inspection. All inspections shall be conducted between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday.
 
21. From time to time, the parties hereto may administratively amend this Agreement with respect to any provisions reasonably related to CNI's access to the Subject Property or the Work. Provided, however, that such amendment(s) shall not serve to materially alter the essential provisions contained herein. Such amendment(s) shall be in writing, shall establish the factual background necessitating such alteration, shall set forth the terms and conditions of such modification, and shall be duly executed by both Parties. Such amendment(s) shall only take effect upon execution by both parties. Upon execution, such amendment(s) shall become a part of this Agreement and all other provisions of this Agreement shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.
  1. Business Relationships. CNI acknowledges (A) receipt of a copy of Section 2-156-030 (b) of the Municipal Code of Chicago, (B) that it has read such provision and understands that pursuant to such Section 2-156-030 (b) it is illegal for any elected official of the City, or any person acting at the direction of such official, to contact, either orally or in writing, any other City official or employee with respect to any matter involving any person with whom the elected City official or employee has a "Business Relationship" (as defined in Section 2- 156-080 of the Municipal Code of Chicago), or to participate in any discussion in any City Council committee hearing or in any City Council meeting or to vote on any matter involving the person with whom an elected official has a Business Relationship, and (C) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, that a violation of Section 2-156-030 (b) by an elected official, or any person acting at the direction of such official, with respect to any transaction contemplated by this Agreement shall be grounds for termination of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. CNI hereby represents and warrants that no violation of Section 2-156-030 (b) has occurred with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.
  2. Patriot Act Certification. CNI represents and warrants that neither CNI nor any Affiliate thereof (as defined in the next paragraph) is listed on any of the following lists
 
 
34
 
 
maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the Bureau of Industry and Security of the U.S. Department of Commerce or their successors, or on any other list of persons or entities with which the City may not do business under any applicable law, rule, regulation, order or judgment, the Specially Designated Nationals List, the Denied Persons List, the Unverified List, the Entity List and the Debarred List.
 
As used in the above paragraph, an "Affiliate" shall be deemed to be a person or entity related to CNI that, directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with CNI, and a person or entity shall be deemed to be controlled by another person or entity, if controlled in any manner whatsoever that results in control in fact by that other person or entity (or that other person or entity and any persons or entities with whom that other person or entity is acting jointly or in concert), whether directly or indirectly and whether through share ownership, a trust, a contract or otherwise.
  1. Waste Ordinance Provisions. In accordance with Section 11-4-1600(e) of the Municipal Code of Chicago, CNI warrants and represents that it, and to the best of its knowledge, its contractors and subcontractors, have not violated and are not in violation of any provisions of Section 7-28 or Section 11-4 of the Municipal Code (the "Waste Sections"). During the period while this Agreement is executory, CNI's, any general contractor's or any subcontractor's violation of the Waste Sections, whether or not relating to the performance of this Agreement, constitutes a breach of and an event of default under this Agreement, for which the opportunity to cure, if curable, will be granted only at the sole designation of the Chief Procurement Officer. Such breach and default entitles the City to all remedies under the Agreement, at law or in equity. This section does not limit CNI's, general contractor's and its subcontractors' duty to comply with all applicable federal, state, county and municipal laws, statutes, ordinances and executive orders, in effect now or later, and whether or not they appear in this Agreement. Non-compliance with these terms and conditions may be used by the City as grounds for the termination of this Agreement, and may further affect CNI's eligibility for future contract awards.
  2. Failure to Maintain Eligibility to do Business with City. Failure by CNI or any controlling person (as defined in Section 1-23-010 of the Municipal Code of Chicago) thereof to maintain eligibility to do business with the City of Chicago as required by Section 1-23-030 of the Municipal Code of Chicago shall be grounds for termination of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. CNI shall at all times comply with Section 2-154-020 of the Municipal Code of Chicago.
  3. Cooperation with Inspector General and Legislative Inspector General. In accordance with Chapter 2-26-110 et seq. of the Municipal Code, CNI acknowledges that every officer, employee, department and agency of the City shall be obligated to cooperate with the Office of the Inspector General and the Office of the Legislative Inspector General in connection with any activities undertaken by such office with respect to this Agreement, including, without limitation, making available to the Office of the Inspector General and the Office of the Legislative Inspector General the department's premises, equipment, personnel, books, records and papers. CNI agrees to abide by the provisions of Chapter 2-26-110 et seq.
  4. Shakman Prohibitions.
 
(i) The City is subject to the May 31, 2007 Order entitled "Agreed Settlement Order and Accord" (the "Shakman Accord") and the August 16, 2007 "City of Chicago Hiring Plan" ( the
 
 
35
 
 
"City Hiring Plan") entered in Shakman v. Democratic Organization of Cook County, Case No 69 C 2145 (United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois). Among other things, the Shakman Accord and the City Hiring Plan prohibit the City from hiring persons as governmental employees in non-exempt positions on the basis of political reasons or factors.
  1. CNI is aware that City policy prohibits City employees from directing any individual to apply for a position with CNI, either as an employee or as a subcontractor, and from directing CNI to hire an individual as an employee or as a subcontractor. Accordingly, CNI must follow its own hiring and contracting procedures, without being influenced by City employees. Any and all personnel provided by CNI under this Agreement are employees or subcontractors of CNI, not employees of the City of Chicago. This Agreement is not intended to and does not constitute, create, give rise to, or otherwise recognize an employer-employee relationship of any kind between the City and any personnel provided by CNI.
  2. CNI will not condition, base, or knowingly prejudice or affect any term or aspect to the employment of any personnel provided under this Agreement, or offer employment to any individual to provide services under this Agreement, based upon or because of any political reason or factor, including, without limitation, any individual's political affiliation, membership in a political organization or party, political support or activity, political financial contributions, promises of such political support, activity or financial contributions, or such individual's political sponsorship or recommendation. For purposes of this Agreement, a political organization or party is an identifiable group or entity that has as its primary purpose the support of or opposition to candidates for elected public office. Individual political activities are the activities of individual persons in support of or in opposition to political organizations or parties or candidates for elected public office.
  3. In the event of any communication to CNI by a City employee or City official in violation of this Section, or advocating a violation of this Section, CNI will, as soon as is reasonably practicable, report such communication to the Hiring Oversight Section of the City's Office of the Inspector General ("IGO Hiring Oversight"), and also to the head of the relevant City Department utilizing services provided under this Agreement. CNI will also cooperate with any inquiries by IGO Hiring Oversight or the Shakman Monitor's Office related to the contract.

Pursuant to Section 4(R-1) of the Agreement, the City and CNI desire to utilize the staff and expertise of the Escrow Agent to collect, review and approve lien waivers, and disburse the Escrowed Funds (as hereinafter defined), subject to the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

I. Creation of and Deposits to Escrow Account.
  1. Escrow Account. There is hereby created with the Escrow Agent an escrow account (the "Escrow Account"), into which all funds shall be deposited hereunder (the "Escrowed Funds"). The Escrow Agent will provide, upon written request, any information regarding the disbursement of funds from the Escrow Account.
  2. [reserved]
  3. City Deposits. Over the term of this Escrow Agreement, the City will deposit into the Escrow Account the Escrowed Funds, all at intervals and installments to be determined pursuant to the Agreement. At the time of each request for a disbursement to be funded hereunder, the City shall make a deposit with the Escrow Agent, in immediately available funds, in the amount approved by the City pursuant to such request for disbursement as provided in Section IV hereof, provided, however, that (i) no event shall have occurred which is or, with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both, would become an event of default under the Agreement, and (ii) each condition set forth in Section IV, as applicable, shall have been satisfied. If the City shall, pursuant to a disbursement request, deposit with the Escrow Agent
 
49
 
 
funds in an amount greater than the amount requested from the City, the Escrow Agent shall promptly transfer the amount of such excess back to the City.
    1. [reserved]
  1. Manner of Disbursement. Disbursements from the Escrow Account are to be made as follows, pursuant to each draw request approved pursuant to Section IV hereof:
  1. By checks to each subcontractor evidencing payment due for labor and/or materials furnished for the Work (as defined in the Agreement);
  2. To the undersigned general contractor (the "General Contractor") for general requirements, builder's overhead (and for builder's profit, when applicable) and for labor and/or materials furnished directly by the General Contractor for the Work, approved by the City pursuant to such disbursement request;
  1. To the General Contractor for labor and/or materials furnished by subcontractors when such items have been paid directly by the General Contractor, and when substantiated by a payment affidavit and lien waiver from the subcontractor; and/or
  2. To CNI and/or other parties as approved by CNI and the City for non-construction items.
 
For purposes of this Escrow Agreement, the term "subcontractor" shall include all mechanics and materialmen furnishing services, labor, materials and supplies in connection with the Work.
 
IV.      Conditions Precedent to Disbursements. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING IN
THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT TO THE CONTRARY, THE ESCROW AGENT SHALL NOT
MAKE ANY DISBURSEMENTS HEREUNDER IF THE CITY HAS NOTIFIED THE ESCROW
AGENT IN WRITING OR BY TELECOPY NOT TO DO SO. IF THE ESCROW AGENT SHALL
HAVE RECEIVED SUCH A NOTICE FROM THE CITY, THE ESCROW AGENT SHALL NOT
MAKE ANY DISBURSEMENTS HEREUNDER (a) EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION V(F)
HEREOF OR (b) UNLESS AND UNTIL THE CITY SHALL HAVE NOTIFIED THE ESCROW
AGENT IN WRITING TO DO SO.
The additional terms and conditions under which disbursements are to be made under this Escrow Agreement are as follows:
A. All Disbursements. The requirements for all disbursements, including the first and final disbursement, are as follows:
1. Prior to each disbursement of funds hereunder, the following shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent:
  1. [reserved];
  2. A sworn general contractor's statement setting forth in detail all contractors and material suppliers with whom CNI has contracted for the Work, their respective addresses, work or materials to be
 
50
 
 
furnished, amounts of contracts, amounts paid to date, amounts of current payments and balances due (the "CNI's Statement"), together with the partial waiver of CNI in the amount of the draw, and waivers of liens, affidavits, supporting waivers and/or release of liens, if necessary, from subcontractors and material suppliers listed thereon;
 
c.      An approval of the current condition of title shown in the
Commitment, from the City. When, after the first disbursement, a
further title search reveals a subsequently arising exception over
which the Title Company is unwilling to insure, the Escrow Agent will
notify the City and discontinue disbursement until the exception has
been disposed of to the satisfaction of the City. (A mechanic's lien
claim over which the Title Company is required to insure hereunder
does not warrant a discontinuance of disbursement);
  1. Other statements, waivers, affidavits, supporting waivers and releases of lien from such persons and in such form as may be required by the Escrow Agent for the purpose of releasing and waiving any and all rights to file mechanic's lien claims against the Subject Property (as defined in the Agreement) for those amounts and the work or materials which they represent (alternatively, CNI may enter into such indemnification arrangement with the Escrow Agent as required by the Escrow Agent to underwrite the requested coverage and issue the said required Commitment);
  2. Escrowed Funds sufficient to cover the amount of the disbursement; and
  3. A written approval by CNI and the City (signed by DPD and 2FM) of the requested disbursement and a request that the disbursement be made. For disbursements other than the first disbursement, such approval shall reference any extras or change orders not previously covered by waivers or deposited funds, and the amount of such extra or change order.
 
2. The Title Company shall be in a position to issue a mechanics' lien and pending disbursement endorsement to the City's Commitment, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the City (the "Endorsement"). The amount shown in such Endorsement shall be the amount of the total disbursement(s) made by the City to date, and the effective date thereof shall be the date the City's funds are deposited into the Escrow Account.
 
B. First Disbursement. Prior to the first disbursement of funds hereunder, and in addition to the requirements set forth above for all disbursements, the following shall be furnished:
 
1. Where applicable, the Title Company shall have furnished to the City the Commitment showing the City as the insured under the Commitment.

A certificate addressed to the City and the Escrow Agent, from the Consultant Engineer (as defined in the Agreement), certifying that all rehabilitation or construction work has been completed and materials are in place to the extent shown in the request for payment by the General Contractor.
  1. Upon completion of the Work, CNI shall promptly submit notice thereof to the Escrow Agent and the City and shall cause the Title Company to issue a final Endorsement to the City's Commitment.
 
V. Escrow Agent. It is understood by the parties hereto and by the General Contractor, who executed this Escrow Agreement to evidence its understanding and not as a party hereto, that the following provisions govern the duties ofthe Escrow Agent hereunder:
  1. The Escrow Agent may, at its discretion, take whatever steps the Escrow Agent may deem necessary to verify the accuracy of any sworn statement required hereunder;
  2. If at any time the Escrow Agent shall discover a misstatement of a material fact in any request or other notice from CNI, it shall promptly give notice of such discovery to the City and shall thereafter not disburse funds from the Escrow Account until such misstatements shall have been corrected to the satisfaction of the City, except as directed pursuant to the direction of the City;
  3. The Escrow Agent will not accept any blanket lien waivers by the General Contractor as to labor performed and/or materials furnished by others. The Escrow Agent will not accept any blanket waiver pre-signed by any subcontractor;
  4. While the subcontractors and any suppliers of labor and materials listed on sworn statements are not parties to this Escrow Agreement and have no standing hereunder, the Escrow Agent is authorized to furnish to those persons information which the Escrow Agent may deem appropriate with regard to the times at which disbursements might be made to them, and what conditions remain unsatisfied when the Escrow Agent is not in a position to disburse;
 
E.      Any requirement or undertaking herein notwithstanding, there is no obligation
assumed by the Escrow Agent for insuring that sufficient funds will be available to pay all costs
incurred in completing the Work, or that the Work will be completed. Except with respect to
funds for which the Escrow Agent shall have received investment instructions in writing, the
Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to invest or reinvest any cash at any time held by it
hereunder. Subject to paragraph G of this Section V, all income, if-any, derived from any use
which the Escrow Agent may make of any deposits hereunder shall belong to the respective
depositors;
 
F.      Subject to paragraph G of this Section V, upon receipt of written notice to the Escrow
Agent from the City, the Escrow Agent shall transfer to the City all amounts previously
disbursed by the City into the Escrow Account that remain in the Escrow Account;
 
 
 
52
 
  1. Notwithstanding paragraphs E and F of this Section V, after payment by the Escrow Agent of the final disbursement hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall disburse any funds then remaining in the Escrow Account to the City;
    1. The Escrow Agent's charges for the services performed and title insurance protection furnished hereunder are the responsibility of CNI and are to be paid from funds deposited herein, and the Escrow Agent reserves the right to suspend further processing of funds in the Escrow Account until this is done or other arrangements satisfactory to the Escrow Agent have been made; and
 
I.      It is understood by the parties hereto that the requirements listed in this Section V are
solely for the Escrow Agent's benefit to assist the Escrow Agent in fulfilling its obligations
hereunder.
