When the Owner accepts the assignment of a subcontract agreement, the Owner assumes the Contractor's rights and
<br />obligations under the subcontract.
<br />§ 5.4.2 Upon such assignment, if the Work has been suspended for more than 30 days, the Subcontractor's
<br />compensation shall be equitably adjusted for increases in cost resulting from the suspension.
<br />§ 5.4.3 Upon assignment to the Owner under this Section 5.4, the Owner may further assign the subcontract to a
<br />successor contractor or other entity. If the Owner assigns the subcontract to a successor contractor or other entity, the
<br />Owner shall nevertheless remain legally responsible for all of the successor contractor's obligations under the
<br />subcontract.
<br />ARTICLE 6 CONSTRUCTION BY OWNER OR BY SEPARATE CONTRACTORS
<br />§ 6.1 Owner's Right to Perform Construction and to Award Separate Contracts
<br />§ 6.1.1 The term "Separate Contractor(s)" shall mean other contractors retained by the Owner under separate
<br />agreements. The Owner reserves the right to perform construction or operations related to the Project with the
<br />Owner's own forces, and with Separate Contractors retained under Conditions of the Contract substantially similar to
<br />those of this Contract, including those provisions of the Conditions of the Contract related to insurance and waiver of
<br />subrogation.
<br />§ 6.1.2 When separate contracts are awarded for different portions of the Project or other construction or operations on
<br />the site, the term "Contractor" in the Contract Documents in each case shall mean the Contractor who executes each
<br />separate Owner -Contractor Agreement.
<br />§ 6.1.3 The Owner shall provide for coordination of the activities of the Owner's own forces and of each Separate
<br />Contractor with the Work of the Contractor, who shall cooperate with them. The Contractor shall participate with any
<br />Separate Contractors and the Owner in reviewing their construction schedules. The Contractor shall make any
<br />revisions to its construction schedule deemed necessary after a joint review and mutual agreement. The construction
<br />schedules shall then constitute the schedules to be used by the Contractor, Separate Contractors, and the Owner until
<br />subsequently revised.
<br />§ 6.1.4 Unless otherwise provided in the Contract Documents, when the Owner performs construction or operations
<br />related to the Project with the Owner's own forces or with Separate Contractors, the Owner or its Separate Contractors
<br />shall have the same obligations and rights that the Contractor has under the Conditions of the Contract, including,
<br />without excluding others, those stated in Article 3, this Article 6, and Articles 10, 11, and 12.
<br />§ 6.2 Mutual Responsibility
<br />§ 6.2.1 The Contractor shall afford the Owner and Separate Contractors reasonable opportunity for introduction and
<br />storage of their materials and equipment and performance of their activities, and shall connect and coordinate the
<br />Contractor's construction and operations with theirs as required by the Contract Documents.
<br />§ 6.2.2 If part of the Contractor's Work depends for proper execution or results upon construction or operations by the
<br />Owner or a Separate Contractor, the Contractor shall, prior to proceeding with that portion of the Work, promptly
<br />notify the Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate
<br />Contractor that would render it unsuitable for proper execution and results of the Contractor's Work. Failure of the
<br />Contractor to notify the Architect of apparent discrepancies or defects prior to proceeding with the Work shall
<br />constitute an acknowledgment that the Owner's or Separate Contractor's completed or partially completed
<br />construction is fit and proper to receive the Contractor's Work. The Contractor shall not be responsible for
<br />discrepancies or defects in the construction or operations by the Owner or Separate Contractor that are not apparent.
<br />§ 6.2.3 The Contractor shall reimburse the Owner for costs the Owner incurs that are payable to a Separate Contractor
<br />because of the Contractor's delays, improperly timed activities or defective construction. The Owner shall be
<br />responsible to the Contractor for costs the Contractor incurs because of a Separate Contractor's delays, improperly
<br />timed activities, damage to the Work or defective construction.
<br />§ 6.2.4 The Contractor shall promptly remedy damage that the Contractor wrongfully causes to completed or partially
<br />completed construction or to property of the Owner or Separate Contractor as provided in Section 10.2.5.
