coverage normally carried by the Engineer and noted in Part VIII of the "ENGINEER AGREES ",

If the Engineer incurs and must pay his employees overtime at premium rates,
the billable rate charged above for each respective employee so affected shall be
increased by twenty -five percent (25 %).
The hourly rates itemized above shall be effective the date the parties, hereunto entering this
Agreement, have affixed their hands and seals and shall remain in effect until December 31,
2001. In event the services of the Engineer extend beyond that date, the hourly rates will be
adjusted yearly by addendum to this Agreement to compensate for increases in the salary
structure of the Engineer that are in effect at that time.
IV. That payments due the Engineer for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement will
be made as soon as practicable after the services have been performed, in accordance with the
following schedule.
a. Upon completion of preliminary design criteria, preliminary Plan layout and rough
Estimates of Probable Cost based upon these Plans, thirty percent (30 %) of the
design fee as determined by the Estimate of Probable Cost.
b. Upon completion of detailed Plans, Special Provisions, Proposals and Estimate
of Cost - being the work required by Paragraphs I -a, b, c, d, e, f, g and i of "THE
ENGINEER AGREES" - to the satisfaction of the Owner, ninety percent (90 %) of
the total fee based on the above fee schedule and the approved Estimate of
Probable Cost Tess any previous payments.
c. Upon award of the Contract for the improvement by the Owner, one hundred
percent (100 %) of the total fee based on the above fee schedule and the
awarded Contract cost, less any previous payments.
d. Upon completion of the construction of the improvement, ninety percent (90 %) of
the fee due for services stipulated in Paragraphs 1-j, k and I.
e. Upon completion of all final reports required by the Owner and acceptance of the
improvement, one hundred percent (100 %) of the total fees due under this
Agreement, Tess any previous payments.
Partial payments, not to exceed ninety percent (90 %) of the amount earned, may be
made from time to time as the work progresses.
V. That, should the improvement be abandoned at any time after the Engineer has
performed any part of the services provided for in Paragraphs I -a and I -b, and prior to the
completion of such services, the Owner shall reimburse the Engineer an amount which bears
the same ratio to the total fee otherwise payable under this Agreement as the services actually
rendered hereunder by the Engineer bear to the total services necessary for the full
performance of this Agreement, such payment plus all reimbursable payments then due, shall
be in full discharge of all rights of the Engineer under this Agreement.

VI. That should the Owner require changes in any of the detailed Plans, Specifications or
estimates (except for those required pursuant to Paragraph V of "THE ENGINEER AGREES ")
after they have been approved by the Owner, the Owner will pay the Engineer for such changes
at the hourly rates noted in Paragraph III(b) of the above, and for his sublet expenses as noted
in Part II above. It is understood that "changes" as used in this paragraph shall in no way
relieve the Engineer of his responsibility to prepare a complete and adequate set of Plans.
VII. That, should the completion of the improvement extend beyond the time limit given in the
construction contract, the Owner will pay the Engineer, in addition to the fees provided herein,
his cost incurred beyond such time limit - at the hourly rates noted in Section III(b) above, and or
his sublet expenses as noted in Part II above.
VIII. That, the Engineer does not guarantee and shall not be responsible for the Contractor's
or subcontractors means methods, techniques, sequences, procedures, timely performance, or
the safety programs and precautions incident thereto, since they are solely the Contractor's
rights and responsibilities; and that the Engineer has no authority to stop work on behalf of the
Owner.
IX. That, since the Engineer has no control over the cost of labor, material and equipment,
the estimate of probable construction cost is not a guarantee of actual construction cost, but is
the Engineer's professional opinion as to the probable cost of construction at the time of
preparation of the estimate.
X. That should the Owner require the Engineer to purchase insurance over and above the
coverage normally carried by the Engineer and noted in Part VIII of the "ENGINEER AGREES ",
or require that the Owner be named as an "additional insured" on the Engineer's policy, the
Owner will reimburse the Engineer at his actual invoice cost for the additional insurance
coverage requested.

IT IS MUTUALLY AGREED,
1. That any difference between the Engineer and the Owner concerning the interpretation
of the provisions of this Agreement shall be referred to a committee of disinterested parties
consisting of one member appointed by the Engineer, one member appointed by the Owner and
a third member appointed by the two other members for disposition, and that the committee's
decision shall be final.
II. The laws governing this Agreement shall be the law of the State of Illinois.
III. This Agreement may be terminated by the Owner upon giving notice in writing to the
Engineer at his last known post office address. Upon such termination, the Engineer shall
cause to be delivered to the Owner all drawings, Specifications, partial and completed estimates
and data if any from traffic studies and soil survey, subsurface and sewer televising
investigations with the understanding that all such material becomes the property of the Owner.
Owner acknowledges that if conflicts exist between electronically transmitted documents and
hard copy documents, the hard copy documents prevail. If the Agreement is terminated or the
Contract for Construction has not been awarded one (1) year after the acceptance of the Plans
by the Owner, the Engineer shall be paid for services completed and services partially
completed, an amount which bears the same ratio to the total fee otherwise paid under this
Agreement as the services actually rendered hereunder by the Engineer bear to the total
services necessary for the full performance of this Agreement and such payment, plus all
reimbursable payments then due, shall be in full discharge of all rights of the Engineer under
this Agreement
IV. That if the contract for construction has not been awarded one (1) year after the
acceptance of the Plans by the Owner, the Owner will pay the Engineer the balance of the
engineering fee due to make one hundred percent (100 %) of the total fees due in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, based on the Estimate of Probable Cost as prepared by the
Engineer.
