Directive. The requirement that the Successful Bidder obtain a Change Order or a Change Directive is of

the essence and it is the express intention of the parties that any claims by the Successful Bidder for a

change in the contract price and/or project completion date and time shall be barred unless there is strict

compliance with paragraph 1 – OWNER’S RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES. No course of conduct or

dealing between the parties, no express or implied acceptance of alterations or additions to the Work,

and no claims that the Owner has been unjustly enriched by any alteration or addition to the Work,

whether in fact there is any such unjust enrichment or not, shall be the basis of a claim for damages or

additional payment under this contract or a claim for an extension of the project completion date and

time, or a claim for an amendment to the contract. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

under circumstances of expediency, the Successful Bidder may proceed with a change in the Work

without first obtaining a Change Order or a Change Directive where it has received from the Owner or

the Owner's authorized representative some form of written or e-mail direction agreeing to the change.

3. The Successful Bidder agrees that its activities related to construction co-ordination, including but not

limited to site conditions, site co-ordination, and the co-ordination of subcontractors and suppliers and

the Work of the Owner’s forces and/or other contractors, including the matters referred to in the

following paragraph, shall not constitute a change in the Work and shall not entitle the Successful

Bidder to an adjustment of the contract price or project completion date and time.

.1 The Successful Bidder shall perform the Work in accordance with modern practice and shall

employ only good workmanship subject to specific requirements of the Contract Documents, and

in accordance with applicable laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or codes relating to the

performance of the Work. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Successful Bidder

is responsible for the intermeshing of the various parts of the Work so that no part shall be left in

an unfinished or incomplete condition owing to any disagreement between Subcontractors, or

between any of the Subcontractors and the Successful Bidder, or due to work performed by the

Owner’s own forces or other contractors, as to where the Work of one begins or ends with

relation to the Work of the other.

4. The Owner from time to time may issue supplemental instructions solely for the purposes of clarifying

drawings and specifications. The Successful Bidder shall not be permitted to apply costs against




23

supplemental instructions, however, if the Successful Bidder believes a supplemental instruction will

result in either a change to the contract price or project completion date and time, the Successful Bidder

shall immediately advise the Owner.

requirements of the Contract and in particular with the requirements of the Specifications

requirements of the Contract are fulfilled.

20. COST OF POWER AND FACILITIES ON SITE

The Contractor shall provide and shall bear the costs of all electricity, fuel, water and

sanitary facilities required for, or at the site of, the works up to the date of substantial

in completing unfinished work or rectifying deficiencies may, at the discretion of the

Engineer, be charged against the Contractor.

All Tenderers shall refer to Division 1, Section 01500 – “Construction Facilities and

Temporary Controls” for additional information and requirements related to the cost of

power and facilities at the site.

21. LUMP SUM FOR MOBILIZATION/DEMOBILIZATION

The first item in the Schedule of Items and Prices or, in the case of a lump sum type

contract, in the Breakdown Schedule, is to cover the Contractor's cost of mobilization at

the beginning of the construction period and demobilization at the close of the construction

period. The price entered for this item shall be consistent with the costs involved but shall

not, in any event, exceed ten percent (10%) of the total tender price.

If the Tenderer has entered against this item in his tender a price in excess of ten percent

(10%) of the total tender price, the Corporation shall, in preparing contract documents

based upon the tender, reduce the price for the said item to an amount not exceeding ten

percent (10%) of the total tender price and shall add the amount of the reduction to the




price for the "Lump Sum for Other Requirements" item so that the total tender price shall

not be affected.

Sixty percent (60%) of the price for the Mobilization and Demobilization item shall be

considered as relating to mobilization and the balance to demobilization.

The payment for mobilization shall be included in the first payment certificate issued for

the Contract subject to the Engineer being satisfied that full mobilization has been carried

out. If the Engineer is not so satisfied, he shall allow payment which, in his opinion, reflects

the degree of mobilization effected to date. The payment for demobilization shall become

due following Substantial Performance of the works and subject to the Engineer being

satisfied that full demobilization has been carried out. The Engineer may, in his discretion,

allow partial payment for demobilization before full demobilization has been effected.

22. RESPONSIBILITY FOR DAMAGE TO UTILITIES

The Contractor’s attention is drawn to the presence of utilities on this project.

No responsibility will be assumed by the Owner for the correctness or completeness of the

Drawings with respect to existing utility pipes, chambers, or other objects, either

underground or on the surface, and should the locates of such be found to differ or are not

shown, the Contractor shall have no claim on that account.

The locations of underground and/or overhead utilities shown on the Contract Drawings

are for the Owner’s use only and are not guaranteed by the Owner. It is the Contractor’s

responsibility to contact the Utility Companies (if required) for further information in

regard to these utilities, and to exercise the necessary care in construction operations or

take other precautions to safeguard the Utility Company from damage.

The cost to rectify all damages to any utilities caused by the Contractor’s operations

shall be borne by the Contractor.

23. LUMP SUM FOR OTHER REQUIREMENTS

In this item of the Schedule of Items and Prices, or in the case of a lump sum type contract,

in the Breakdown Schedule, the Tenderer shall enter his tender price for providing items

such as watchmen, permits and approvals (other than those to be paid by the Owner), items

required by the Drawings or Specifications but which have been omitted from the Schedule

and other items required by the Contract but not specifically covered by or related to the

other items in the Schedule.

Each Progress Payment Certificate will include a percentage of the tender price for this

item in proportion to the percentage of the permanent works completed. The submission

by a Tenderer of an unbalanced price for this item renders the tender liable to

disqualification.

24. CITY OF WINDSOR SPECIFICATIONS & GENERAL PROVISIONS

FORM 32 PERFORMANCE BOND UNDER SECTION 85.1 OF THE ACT

Construction Act

No. (the “Bond”) Bond Amount $

, (name of the contractor*)

as a principal, hereinafter [collectively] called the “Contractor”, and

(name of the surety company**)

a corporation created and existing under the laws of (place of incorporation)

as a surety, and duly authorized to transact the business of Suretyship in the Province of Ontario and hereinafter called

the “Surety”, are held and firmly bound unto

(name of the owner***)

as obligee, hereinafter called the “Owner”, in the amount of $ hereinafter called the “Bond Amount”, (Bond Amount in figures)

for the payment of which sum the Contractor and the Surety bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally in accordance with the provisions of this Bond (the “Obligation”).

WHEREAS the Contractor has entered into a written contract with the Owner dated the day of (name of month)

in the year for (title or description of the contract)

(the “Original Contract”) and, for the purpose of specifying the conditions of the Obligation, this contract together with amendments made in accordance with its terms are by reference made part hereof and are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Contract”;

NOW THEREFORE the condition of this Obligation is such that if the Contractor shall promptly and faithfully perform the Contract then this Obligation shall be null and void; otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect, subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. Written Notice

1.1 The Owner may make a written demand on the Surety in accordance with this Bond, by giving notice to the Surety

substantially in the form attached as Schedule A (the “Notice”). Except for a Pre-Notice Meeting in accordance

with Section 2.1, the Surety shall have no obligation under this Bond until it receives a Notice.

1.2 Where the Surety includes two or more companies, the Notice may be delivered to the first listed Surety on behalf of

all Sureties. The first listed Surety is hereby authorized to respond to the Notice on behalf of the Sureties, and the

Owner is not required to give separate Notice to each Surety and is entitled to correspond with the first listed

Surety on behalf of all Sureties.

2. Pre-Notice Meeting

2.1 The Owner may, at its sole discretion and acting reasonably, request a pre-Notice conference by notifying the

Surety and the Contractor in writing that it is considering declaring the Contractor to be in default under the

Contract (the “Pre-Notice Meeting”). This notice and request for a Pre-Notice Meeting by the Owner does not

constitute a Notice under this Bond, nor under the Contract, nor is it a precondition to the giving of a Notice.

Upon receipt of such request the Surety shall propose a face-to-face meeting, a telephone conference call or a meeting by any other form of electronic media between the Contractor, the Owner and the Surety to take place

CA-32-E (2018/04)

at a time and place mutually convenient for all parties within seven (7) business days (or such longer time as

agreed by all parties) after the Surety’s receipt of the Owner’s request for a Pre-Notice Meeting in accordance

with this Section. The Owner, the Contractor and the Surety shall make reasonable efforts to arrange and

attend the Pre-Notice Meeting. In the event that the Owner delivers a Notice prior to the Pre-Notice Meeting,

then the Pre-Notice is deemed to be retracted.

2.2 The purpose of a Pre-Notice Meeting is to allow the Owner, prior to exercising its other rights under this Bond, to

express any concerns about the Contractor’s performance pursuant to the Contract and to allow the Contractor

to respond to such concerns. The participation of the parties in one or more Pre-Notice Meetings shall be

without prejudice to their respective rights and obligations under the Contract, this Bond or applicable law, and

neither the participation by any party in any Pre-Notice Meeting, nor any statement or position taken or

information provided by any party during any Pre-Notice Meeting, may be relied on by any other party as a

waiver or compromise of the rights or obligations of the Owner, the Surety or the Contractor under the Contract,

this Bond or applicable law; including, but not limited to the Owner’s right to declare the Contractor in default

under the Contract and give Notice under this Bond.

3. Surety’s Investigation and Response

3.1 Upon receipt of a Notice from the Owner, the Surety shall promptly initiate an investigation of the Notice (the

“Investigation”), using its best efforts, to determine if the Conditions Precedent have been satisfied and to

determine its liability, if any, under the Bond.

3.2 Within the four (4) business days following receipt of the Notice, the Surety shall provide the Owner with an

acknowledgement, substantially in the form set out as Schedule B (the “Acknowledgement”), identifying the

date on which the Notice was received and requesting from the Owner the information and documentation (the

“Information”) the Surety requires to continue the Investigation and, if necessary, request access to personnel

who are knowledgeable about the circumstances of the Notice and to the Contract work site(s) where the work

is being performed. Upon receipt of the Surety’s Acknowledgement, the Owner shall promptly, and in

accordance with terms of the Contract, provide the Surety with the requested Information and access to

personnel and the work site(s) within its possession or control.

3.3 The Surety shall within a reasonable time conduct the Investigation, but in any event no later than twenty (20)

business days after receipt by the Surety of a Notice (or such longer period as may be agreed between the

Surety and Owner), the Surety shall provide the Owner with its written response to the Notice, substantially in

the form set out at Schedule C (the “Surety’s Position”), advising either that:

a) The Surety accepts liability under the Bond and proposes to satisfy its Obligation by performing one of the

options set out in Section 6.1; or

b) The Surety does not accept liability, providing its specific reasons; or

c) The Surety is unable to determine whether or not one or more of the Conditions Precedent has been

satisfied and, in the Surety’s sole discretion, the Surety may propose a process for collaborating with the

Owner in the advancement of the completion of the work so as to attempt to mitigate the Owner’s cost to

complete the Contract.

3.4 The Surety shall also, if requested by the Owner to do so, meet with the Owner to discuss the status of the

Investigation within five days following receipt of the request. This meeting may take place via a face-to-face meeting,

a telephone conference call or a meeting by any other form of electronic media as may be mutually agreed to by the

Owner and Surety.

4. Necessary Interim Work

4.1 Prior to and during the Investigation, if the Owner must take action which is necessary to:

a) ensure public or worker safety,

b) preserve or protect the work under the Contract from deterioration or damage, or

c) comply with applicable law,

(the “Necessary Interim Work”)

the Owner may, acting with due diligence and provided written notice is subsequently provided to the Surety

within three (3) Business Days of the commencement of such Necessary Interim Work, undertake such

CA-32-E (2018/04)

Necessary Interim Work provided that:

i. Owner shall allow the Surety and/or its consultant(s) reasonable access to the Contract work

site(s) during the course of the Necessary Interim Work for the purpose of monitoring the

progress of the Necessary Interim Work;

ii. any such Necessary Interim Work shall be undertaken without prejudice to the rights of the

Owner, the Contractor or the Surety under the Contract, this Bond or applicable law; and

iii. the reasonable costs incurred by the Owner in undertaking such Necessary Interim Work (to the

extent they are not deducted in the calculation of the Balance of Contract Price in Section 9.1)

shall be reimbursed by the Surety, subject to the Surety’s liability being subsequently established

and subject to such expenses being covered by this Bond. Any payments made by the Surety in

respect of the Necessary Interim Work shall reduce the Bond Amount by the amount of any such

payments.

4.2 Nothing in this section is intended to limit the ability of an Owner to take whatever steps are reasonably necessary

in the public interest.

4.3 Subject to the foregoing provisions in Section 4.1, the Surety shall not raise the mere fact that the Necessary

Interim Work proceeded as a defence to any claim by the Owner hereunder.

5. Post-Notice Conference

5.1 Upon receipt of a Notice, the Surety shall propose a face-to-face meeting, telephone conference call or a meeting

by any other form of electronic media (a “Post-Notice Conference”) with the Owner at a mutually convenient

time and place within five (5) business days (or such longer period as may be agreed between the Surety and

Owner). The Contractor may participate in a Post-Notice Conference at the invitation of the Surety.

5.2 The purpose of the Post-Notice Conference shall be to determine what actions or work, if any, the Owner believes

must be done while the Surety is conducting the Investigation in order to effectively mitigate the costs for which

the Owner is seeking recovery under this Bond (the “Mitigation Work”). Mitigation Work may be performed

after Necessary Interim Work and throughout the period of investigation by the Surety.

5.3 Provided the Owner provides reasonable evidence to the Surety that Mitigation Work is necessary during the

Investigation and that the anticipated costs are reasonable, the Owner may proceed with the Mitigation Work

subject to the following conditions:

a) Owner shall pay the reasonable costs of the Mitigation Work;

b) Owner shall keep separate records of all amounts related to the Mitigation Work for which it intends to

seek recovery under this Bond, including amounts to be set off against the Balance of Contract Price;

c) Owner shall allow the Surety and/or its consultant(s) reasonable access to the Contract work site(s) during

the course of the Mitigation Work for the purpose of monitoring the progress of the Mitigation Work; and

d) the Mitigation Work shall be without prejudice to the rights or obligations of the Owner, the Contractor or

the Surety under the Contract, this Bond or applicable law.

5.4 If the Surety objects to any part of the Mitigation Work, including without limitation the Owner’s proposed

Mitigation Work contractor(s), scope of work, cost or method of work, it shall immediately advise the Owner in

writing of its objections and the reasons therefor. The Owner may still proceed with the Mitigation Work and the

Surety’s objections will be addressed through negotiation with the Owner or at the trial of any action brought

pursuant to this Bond.

5.5 The reasonable costs incurred by the Owner in undertaking the Mitigation Work shall be reimbursed by the

Surety, subject to the Surety’s liability being subsequently established. Any payments made by the Surety in

respect of the Mitigation Work shall form part of its Obligation under this Bond and shall reduce the Bond

Amount by the amount of any such payments.

5.6 For greater clarity, any Necessary Interim Work being performed by the Owner pursuant to Section 4 may

continue to be performed pending an agreement, if any, as to the Mitigation Work.

5.7 Subject to the foregoing provisions in this Section 5, the Surety shall not raise the mere fact that the Mitigation

CA-32-E (2018/04)

Work proceeded as a defence to any claim by the Owner hereunder.

6. Surety’s Options

6.1 If the Surety has accepted liability pursuant to this Bond, the Surety shall promptly select and commence one of

the following options:

a) remedy the default; or

b) complete the Contract in accordance with its terms and conditions; or

c) obtain a bid or bids for submission to the Owner for completing the Contract in accordance with its terms

and conditions and, upon determination by the Owner and the Surety of the lowest responsible bidder:

i. arrange for a contract between such bidder and the Owner; and

ii. make available as work progresses (even if there should be a default, or a succession of defaults,

under the contract or contracts of completion, arranged under this paragraph) sufficient funds to

complete the Contractor’s obligations in accordance with the terms and condition of the Contract

including any applicable value-added taxes for which the Surety may be liable, less the Balance

of Contract Price; or

d) pay the Owner the lesser of: (1) the Bond Amount, or (2) without duplication, the Owner’s Direct Expenses

plus the Owner’s proposed cost of completion of the Contract and any applicable value-added taxes for

which the Surety may be liable, less the Balance of Contract Price.

6.2 The option selected by the Surety is referred to in this Bond and the Schedules as the “Surety Option”.

7. Owner’s Direct Expenses

7.1 Where the Surety is liable under this Bond, then the Surety shall be liable for the following fees and expenses,

without duplication (the “Owner’s Direct Expenses”):

a) reasonable professional fees incurred by the Owner to complete the Contract which are a direct result of

the Contractor’s default and which would not have been incurred but for the default of the Contractor;

b) reasonable external legal fees incurred by the Owner to complete the Contract, which are a direct result

of the Contractor’s default and which would not have been incurred but for the default of the Contractor,

with the exception of legal fees incurred by the Owner in defending a claim or action by the Contractor, or

incurred by the Owner in pursuing an action against the Contractor;

c) reasonable, miscellaneous and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Owner to complete the Contract

which are a direct result of the default of the Contractor and which would not have been incurred but for

the default of the Contractor;

d) direct costs incurred as a result of an extension of the duration of the supply of services or materials used

or reasonably required for use in the performance of the Contract, which are a direct result of the default

of the Contractor and which would not have been incurred but for the default of the Contractor;

e) reasonable costs of the Necessary Interim Work;

f) reasonable costs of the Mitigation Work; and

g) any additional fees and expenses agreed to by the Obligee, the Principal and the Surety.

7.2 For the purpose of Section 7.1(d), the “direct costs” incurred are the reasonable costs of performing the Contract

during the extended period of time, including costs related to the additional supply of services or materials

(including equipment rentals), insurance and surety bond premiums, and costs resulting from seasonal

conditions, that, but for the extension, would not have been incurred.

7.3 Subject to any agreement to the contrary, between the Obligee, the Principal and the Surety, the Surety shall not

be liable under this Bond for:

a) any liquidated damages under the Contract;

b) if no liquidated damages are specified in the Contract, any damages caused by delayed performance or

non-performance of the Contractor, except as provided in Section 7.1(d); or

c) any indirect or consequential damages, including but not limited to costs of financing, extended financing,

hedging arrangements, loss of or deferral of profit, productivity or opportunity, or head office overhead costs.

the Owner from the Balance of the Contract Price as defined hereinafter or will be promptly reimbursed by the

Surety subject to the other terms, conditions and limitations of this Bond and will reduce the Bond Amount.

Contract, including any adjustments to the price in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Contract, or

other amounts to which the Contractor is entitled, reduced by any amounts deducted by the Owner for the

Owner’s Direct Expenses under Section 7.4 and all valid and proper payments made to or on behalf of the

Contractor under the Contract.

9.2 The Balance of Contract Price shall be used by the Owner to first mitigate against any potential loss to the Surety

under this Bond and then under the Labour & Material Payment Bond, and the Owner shall assert all rights and

remedies available to the Owner to the Balance of Contract Price and make payment of the Balance of Contract

Price as directed by the Surety.

OPTION C

Based on the Information you have provided and the time available for our Investigation

[if applicable] and taking into account genuine disputed issues as between the Owner and the Contractor that have not been resolved according to the terms of the Contract as outlined generally below,

the Surety is unable to determine whether or not one or more of the Conditions Precedent has been satisfied and, therefore, is not able to accept liability under the Bond.

In particular we have been unable to determine that [delete those that do not apply]

and/or

b) the Owner has performed its obligations under the Contract. [Provide further explanation as appropriate.]

and/or

c) the Owner has given the notice to the Contractor of a Contractor Default as required under the terms of the Contract. [Provide further explanation as appropriate.]

and/or

d) the Owner has agreed to apply the Balance of Contract Price as necessary to enable the Surety to exercise the

Surety Option under the Bond. [Provide further explanation as appropriate.] With your agreement and assistance we are willing to extend our Investigation in an effort to resolve outstanding issues. Should this extended Investigation allow us to provide you with an alternative Surety’s Position we will do so promptly. [If applicable] Under a full reservation of all of our rights under the Bond and the applicable law, and without prejudice to the rights and obligations of the Owner, the Contractor or the Surety under the Bond we propose to proceed as follows:

as a surety, and duly authorized to transact the business of Suretyship in the Province of Ontario and hereinafter called

the “Surety”, are held and firmly bound unto (name of the owner***)

for the payment of which sum the Contractor and the Surety bind themselves, their heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, jointly and severally in accordance with the provisions of this Bond (the “Obligation”).

WHEREAS the Contractor has entered into a written contract with the Owner dated the day of (name of month)

in the year for (title or description of the contract)

NOW THEREFORE the condition of this Obligation is such that if the Contractor shall make payment to all Claimants as hereinafter defined in accordance with the terms of their respective subcontracts or sub-subcontracts for all labour and material used or reasonably required for use in the performance of the Contract then this Obligation shall be null and void, otherwise it shall remain in full force and effect subject to the following conditions:

The terms “labour” and “material” include that part of water, gas, power, light, heat, oil, gasoline, telephone or digital service or rental equipment directly applicable to the Contract provided that a Claimant who rents equipment to the Contractor or a Subcontractor to be used in the performance of the Contract under a contract which provides that all or any part of the rent is to be applied towards the purchase price thereof shall only be a Claimant to the extent of the prevailing industrial rental value of such equipment for the period during which the equipment was used in the performance of the Contract. The prevailing industrial rental value of equipment shall be determined, insofar as it is practical to do so, by the prevailing rates in the equipment marketplace in which the work is taking place.

2. The Owner is not obligated to do or take any action or proceeding against the Surety on behalf of the Claimant to enforce the bond.

CA-31-E (2018/04)

3. Every Claimant who has not been paid for labour, material or both used or reasonably required for use in the performance of the Contract, after the date on which payment was due and payable under the terms of its subcontract or sub-subcontract may demand payment under this Bond by giving the Surety, with a copy to the Contractor and the Owner, a written Notice of Claim, substantially in the form prescribed in Schedule A for a Subcontractor or Schedule B for a Sub- subcontractor, hereinafter called the “Notice of Claim”.

4. Where the Surety includes two or more companies a Notice of Claim may be delivered to the first listed Surety on behalf of all Sureties. The first listed Surety is hereby authorized to respond to a Notice of Claim on behalf of the Surety, and a Claimant is not required to make separate Notices of Claim to each Surety and is entitled to correspond with the first listed Surety on behalf of all Sureties.

5. It is a condition precedent to the liability of the Surety under this Bond that a Claimant shall have submitted a Notice of Claim

a) in respect of any amount required to be held back from the Claimant by the Contractor, or by a Subcontractor, under either the terms of the Claimant’s contract with the Contractor or Subcontractor or under the Act, whichever is the greater, hereinafter and for the purposes of this Bond called the “Holdback”, within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the Claimant should have been paid in full under its contract with the Contractor or with a Subcontractor; and

b) in respect of any amount other than for Holdback within one hundred and twenty (120) calendar days after the date on which the Claimant last performed labour or provided materials for which the Notice of Claim was given.

6. For each Notice of Claim provided by a Subcontractor:

a) No later than three (3) business days after receipt by the Surety of a Notice of Claim the Surety shall acknowledge receipt of the Notice of Claim, substantially in the form prescribed at Schedule C, and request from the Claimant any information and documentation the Surety requires to determine the Claimant’s entitlement under this Bond (hereinafter called the “Information”); and

b) No later than the earlier of: (a) ten (10) business days after receipt by the Surety of the Information, (b) twenty-five (25) business days after receipt by the Surety of a Notice of Claim, or (c) such longer time as agreed by the Surety and the Subcontractor, the Surety shall provide a position in response to the Notice of Claim, substantially in the form prescribed at Schedule D, hereinafter called the “Surety’s Position”.

7. For each Notice of Claim provided by a Sub-subcontractor:

a) No later than three (3) business days after receipt by the Surety of a Notice of Claim the Surety shall acknowledge receipt of the Notice of Claim, substantially in the form prescribed at Schedule C, and request from the Claimant any information and documentation the Surety requires to determine the Claimant’s entitlement under this Bond (hereinafter called the “Information”); and

b) No later than the earlier of: (a) fifteen (15) business days after receipt by the Surety of the Information, (b) thirty-five (35) business days after receipt by the Surety of a Notice of Claim, or (c) such longer time as agreed by the Surety and the Sub-subcontractor, the Surety shall provide a position in response to the Notice of Claim, substantially in the form prescribed at Schedule D, hereinafter called the “Surety’s Position”.

8. No later than ten (10) business days after the Surety’s Position being provided to any Claimant the Surety shall pay such amounts included in the Notice of Claim that are undisputed by the Surety, except to the extent that the Surety makes an application to the Court with respect to such amounts in accordance with Section 12 below. This payment of undisputed amounts shall be without prejudice to the Surety’s position regarding any disputed portions of a Notice of Claim.

9. If the subject matter of a notice of adjudication which is delivered in accordance with the Act by the Contractor or a Claimant (the “Notice of Adjudication”) is substantially the same as that contained in a Notice of Claim, the obligations of the Surety under this Bond shall be stayed until the Surety receives a copy of the adjudicator’s determination or there is otherwise a failure to complete or a termination of the adjudication under Section 13.14 of the Act.

10. By submitting a claim under this Bond, a Claimant agrees that, in the event of an adjudication between itself and the Surety pursuant to which the Surety pays the Claimant pursuant to an adjudicator’s interim binding determination, the Surety shall be entitled to bring an action against the Claimant to obtain a final and binding decision in respect of the Claimant’s entitlement under this Bond.

11. The Surety shall not in any circumstances be liable for a greater sum than the Bond Amount.

12. The Bond Amount shall be reduced by and to the extent of any payment or payments made under this Bond. If the aggregate of all Notices of Claim exceed, or the aggregate of amounts for which Notices of Claim might be given are believed by the Surety to exceed, the Bond Amount then the Surety may apply to the Court for direction in the interest of all Claimants.

CA-31-E (2018/04)

13. Upon payment to a Claimant under this Bond in respect of any indebtedness of the Contractor or Subcontractor to the Claimant, the Surety shall be subrogated to all of the rights of the Claimant in respect of any and all claims, causes of action and rights to recovery which the Claimant may have against any person, firm or corporation because of or in connection with or arising out of such indebtedness, and the Claimant undertakes to extend to the Surety or the Surety’s designee any warranties and/or guarantees under the Contract in respect of all labour and materials for which the Claimant has been paid.

14. As a condition precedent, any suit or action under this Bond must be commenced within one (1) year after the date on which the Contractor last performed work on the Contract, including work performed under any warranty or guarantees provided in the Contract.

15. The parties to this Bond and a Claimant by providing a Notice of Claim agree that any suit or action is to be made to a court of competent jurisdiction in Ontario and agree to submit to the jurisdiction of such court notwithstanding any terms to the contrary in the Contract.

16. The rights and obligations of the Owner, the Contractor, and the Surety under this Bond are in addition to their respective rights and obligations at common law and in equity.

17. This Bond shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario.

18. All notices (“Notices”) under this Bond shall be delivered by registered mail, facsimile, or electronic mail at the addresses set out below, subject to any change of address in accordance with this Section.
