6.2 If necessary, the contract price and the time for Subcontractor’s performance shall be adjusted by appropriate additions or deductions mutually agreed upon before Subcontractor performs the changed work. Subcontractor shall supply Contractor with all documentation necessary to substantiate the amount of the addition to or deduction from the price or time. If Contractor and Subcontractor cannot agree on the amount of the addition or deletion, or if documentation to substantiate additional cost is not supplied by Subcontractor before performing changed work, Subcontractor shall nonetheless timely perform the work as changed by Contractor’s written direction. Once Subcontractor receives Contractor’s written direction, Subcontractor is solely responsible for timely performance of the work, and timely submission of any claim for extension additional compensation, as changed by written direction.

6.3 Subcontractor shall not make any changes in the work or in any way cause or allow that work to deviate from the Contract Documents without written direction from Contractor. If Subcontractor makes any changes in the work without written direction from Contractor, such change constitutes an agreement by Subcontractor that he will not be paid for that changed work, even if he received verbal direction from Contractor or any claim form of direction, written or otherwise, from Owner or any other delay person or other impacts caused by entity.

Such written notice of claim must be presented given within ten (10) days after such work is performed. Subcontractor’s failure to give written notice within the ten (10) days constitutes an agreement by him that he will not be paid for the Contractor and adjusted by Change Order disputed work.

Any claims for extension of time or of delay or other impactsdeviation from this Agreement, and any costs associated with extension of time, delay or other impacts, which are not presented before proceeding with the change in the Work, and which are not adjusted by Change Order to the extent known, shall be waived.
