Attorneys’ Fees and Cost of Collection In the event any suit, action or arbitration is filed by either party against the other to interpret or enforce any of the Transaction Documents, the unsuccessful party to such action agrees to pay to the prevailing party all costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees incurred therein, including the same with respect to an appeal. The “prevailing party” shall be the party in whose favor a judgment is entered, regardless of whether judgment is entered on all claims asserted by such party and regardless of the amount of the judgment; or where, due to the assertion of counterclaims, judgments are entered in favor of and against both parties, then the arbitrator shall determine the “prevailing party” by taking into account the relative dollar amounts of the judgments or, if the judgments involve nonmonetary relief, the relative importance and value of such relief. Nothing herein shall restrict or impair an arbitrator’s or a court’s power to award fees and expenses for frivolous or bad faith pleading. If (i) the Note is placed in the hands of an attorney for collection or enforcement prior to commencing arbitration or legal proceedings, or is collected or enforced through any arbitration or legal proceeding, or Investor otherwise takes action to collect amounts due under the Note or to enforce the provisions of the Note, or (ii) there occurs any bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership of Company or other proceedings affecting Company’s creditors’ rights and involving a claim under the Note; then Company shall pay the costs incurred by Investor for such collection, enforcement or action or in connection with such bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other proceeding, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expenses, deposition costs, and disbursements.

Cost of Construction 1. During the Schematic Design, Design Development, and Construction Document Phases, the ARCHITECT’s estimates of Construction Cost shall be reconciled against the Budget approved by the DISTRICT pursuant to Article IV, Section 2. 2. The PROJECT’s “Construction Cost,” as used in this AGREEMENT, means the total cost to the DISTRICT of all work designed or specified by the ARCHITECT, which includes the total award from the initial construction Contract(s) plus the work covered by approved change orders and/or any alternates approved by the DISTRICT. The Construction Cost shall not include any costs that are not specifically referenced in this Article V, Section 2, as approved costs. Costs excluded from the Construction Cost include, but are not limited to, payments to the ARCHITECT or other DISTRICT consultants, costs of inspections, surveys, tests, and landscaping not included in PROJECT. 3. When labor or material is furnished by the DISTRICT below its market cost, the Construction Cost shall be based upon current market cost of labor and new material. 4. The Construction Cost shall be the acceptable estimate of Construction Costs to the DISTRICT as submitted by the ARCHITECT until such time as bids have been received, whereupon it shall be the bid amount of the lowest responsible responsive bidder. 5. Any Budget or fixed limit of Construction Cost shall be adjusted if the bidding has not commenced within ninety (90) days after the ARCHITECT submits the Construction Documents to the DISTRICT to reflect changes in the general level of prices in the construction industry between the date of submission of the Construction Documents to the DISTRICT and the date on which bids are sought for the PROJECT. 6. If the lowest bid received exceeds the Budget: a. The DISTRICT may give written approval of an increase of such fixed limit and proceed with the construction of the PROJECT; b. The DISTRICT may authorize rebidding of the PROJECT within a reasonable time; c. If the PROJECT is abandoned, the DISTRICT may terminate this AGREEMENT in accordance with Article VIII, Section 2; d. The DISTRICT may request the ARCHITECT prepare, at no additional cost, deductive change packages that will bring the PROJECT within the Budget; or e. The DISTRICT may request the ARCHITECT cooperate in revising the PROJECT scope and quality as required to reduce the Construction Cost. 7. If the DISTRICT chooses to proceed under Article V, Section 6(e), the ARCHITECT, without additional charge, agrees to redesign the PROJECT until the PROJECT is brought within the Budget set forth in this AGREEMENT. Redesign does not mean phasing or removal of parts of the PROJECT unless agreed to in writing by the DISTRICT. Redesign means the redesign of the PROJECT, with all its component parts, to meet the Budget set forth in this AGREEMENT.
