Contractor shall use reasonable efforts to arrange the performance of the Work so that the Work and the work of Owners forces or any of its Separate Contractors are properly coordinated, joined in an acceptable manner and performed in the proper sequence without any disruption or damage to the Work, or any work of Owners forces or its Separate Contractors. 2.15.3 Coordination. Contractor shall coordinate the activities of Contractors and its Subcontractors forces on the Project Site with the activities of Owners forces and each of its Separate Contractors for the Owner activities defined in Appendix A such that the Work of Contractor and the work of such Owners forces or Separate Contractors are performed in accordance with
the Project Schedule; provided, that Owner timely provides Contractor with the information reasonably requested in respect of activities of Owner and its Separate Contractors, and that Owner gives Contractor timely and reasonable notice of activities that would require such coordination. For the avoidance of doubt, Contractor shall have final authority over the coordination of activities on the Project Site; provided, however, if Contractors exercise of such authority delays Owner in performing its obligation such that Owner cannot reasonably perform an obligation hereunder in accordance with the Project Schedule, Contractor will not be entitled to a Change Order on account thereof nor relief from its performance obligations hereunder. 2.15.4 Owner Contractor Storage and Laydown. Contractor shall afford all of Owner Suppliers and Owners Separate Contractors reasonable opportunity for storage of their materials and equipment and for performance of their work on the Project Site.

Contractor shall erect, maintain or undertake, as required by existing conditions and the performance of this Agreement, all reasonable safeguards for safety and protection, including banners, lighting, CCTV monitoring, security patrols, controlled access, posting danger signs and other warnings against hazards, promulgating safety regulations, and notifying Owner and users of nearby sites and utilities. 2.20 Project Site Fire Protection.

Contractor shall give due consideration to Owners comments and modify the plan appropriately. 2.21 Coordination and Transition. At least 6 months prior to the Required Substantial Completion Date, Contractor shall deliver to Owner a proposed plan that provides for the coordination of (a) Contractors access to and use of the Project Site for performance of the balance of the Work consistent with Section 6.4.1 and consistent with the right of Owner to operate the Project in the ordinary course of business, and (b) the security forces, facilities and safety procedures of the Parties that will be in effect for the remainder of the Term. Contractor and Owner shall thereafter agree on the final plan no later than 3 months prior to the projected date of Substantial Completion.
