3.2 LATE PAYMENTS.  Late payments by the ASSOCIATION shall be subject to interest charges of
                   One and a half (1.5 %) Percent per month (or the maximum percentage allowed by law, whichever is
                   lower) except any portion of the invoiced amount in dispute and resolved in favor of the
                   ASSOCIATION.  Application of the percentage rate indicated above as a consequence of the
                   ASSOCIATION’S late payment does not constitute any willingness on the ARCM’S part to finance
                   the ASSOCIATION’S operation, and no such willingness should be inferred.

               3.3 QUESTIONED AND DISPUTED BILLINGS.  Questions on billing must be made within ten (10)
                   days and submitted in writing within the ten-day (10-day) period. If the ASSOCIATION does not
                   submit such questions or claims of dispute in writing within the ten-day (10-day) period, the
                   ASSOCIATION has waived their right for future review of the invoices and all sums are due and
                   payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. In the event that any portion of a billing is disputed,
                   payment shall be made on all undisputed amounts per the dates and terms cited in the BILLING AND
                   PAYMENT DATES section of this Agreement.  Any dispute about any portion of a billing shall not
                   waive the requirement for timely payment of undisputed amounts.  The ARCM shall be informed in
                   writing, within fifteen (15) calendar days of the receipt of the billing, and indicate the following: a)
                   specific identification of any disputed billing amount, b) reason(s) amount is disputed, c) contract
                   clause that is the basis of the dispute.  If the ARCM is not informed accordingly in writing with the
                   time specified all billed sums are assumed to be due and payable.  Any late payments are subject to
                   the interest charges stated in the LATE PAYMENTS section of this Agreement.


               3.4 RIGHT TO STOP WORK. If the ASSOCIATION fails to pay undisputed billed amounts in
                   accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the ARCM may, without waiving any other rights, and
                   without incurring any liability to the ASSOCIATION, suspend or terminate this Agreement for cause.
                   In the event of such suspension or termination, the ASSOCIATION shall be liable for any and all
                   additional costs incurred by the ARCM related to or caused by the suspension or termination.



                                                  ARTICLE 4.  CHANGES

               4.1 PROCEDURE FOR CHANGES.  Neither this Agreement nor the Work shall be added to, deleted
                   from, or modified in any way except by a Change Order or Authorization to Proceed in writing signed
                   by both parties indicating their mutual consent.  Any changes shall contain provisions for payment of
                   all additional sums due, including additional general conditions, overhead, and profit.  If justified by
                   the change and requested by the ARCM, and if a fixed amount of time has been allocated for the
                   ARCM'S Work, such changes shall also include an extension of the allowable time for the completion
                   of the Work and additional costs associated with that extended time.  The ARCM shall be under no
                   obligation to proceed with any additional, extra, or changed Work unless a written change document
                   has been fully executed by both parties.

               4.2 UNFORESEEN OR UNFORESEEABLE CONDITIONS.  The ARCM shall take reasonable steps to
                   become familiar with those Project conditions which may affect the total cost and duration of the
                   contemplated reconstruction Work.  The ARCM shall make a reasonable effort to notify the
                   ASSOCIATION in advance of potential Project conditions not reasonably foreseen, or foreseeable, or
                   precisely quantifiable, or that otherwise are beyond the ARCM’S control, and shall suggest
                   reasonable ASSOCIATION’S budget contingencies for such potential conditions.  If such conditions
                   are encountered during the performance of the ARCM’S Work, they shall be considered Unforeseen
                   or Unforeseeable Conditions, and this Agreement shall be changed and charged pursuant to article 4.1
