Government Warranty Period. The Authorities require warranty periods (each a “Government Warranty Period”) after the final completion that is applicable to those Finished Lots Improvements that are dedicated to or owned, and accepted for maintenance by the Authorities (the “Public Improvements”). In the event defects in the Public Improvements to which a governmental warranty (each a “Governmental Warranty”) applies become apparent during the applicable Government Warranty Period, then Seller shall coordinate the repairs with the applicable Authorities and cause the service provider(s) who performed the work or supplied the materials in which the defect(s) appear to complete such repairs or, if such service providers fail to correct such defects, otherwise cause such defects to be repaired to the satisfaction of the Authorities. Any costs and expenses incurred pursuant to a Government Warranty in connection with any repairs or warranty work performed during the Government Warranty Period (including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses incurred to enforce any warranties against any service providers) shall be borne by Seller, unless such defect was caused by Purchaser or its contractors, subcontractors, employees, or agents, in which event Purchaser shall pay all such costs and expenses to the extent such defect was caused by Purchaser or its contractors, subcontractors, employees, or agents.
Government Warranty Period. The Approving Authorities may require a warranty period after the Substantial Completion of the Improvements (a “Government Warranty Period”). In the event defects in the Improvements to which a governmental warranty applies become apparent during the Government Warranty Period, then Developer shall coordinate the repairs with the applicable Approving Authorities and cause the Service Provider(s) who performed the work or supplied the materials in which the defect(s) appear to complete such repairs or, if such Service Providers fail to correct such defects, otherwise cause such defects to be repaired to the satisfaction of the Approving Authorities. Any costs and expenses incurred in connection with any repairs or warranty work performed during the Government Warranty Period (including, but not limited to, any costs or expenses incurred to enforce any warranties against any Service Providers) shall be borne by the Developer, except for damage that was caused by the Builder or its contractors, subcontractors, employees, or agents, in which event the Builder shall pay all such costs and expenses to the extent caused by Builder or its contractors, subcontractors, employees, or agents. Any damage to an Improvement that was not listed on the Builder Punchlist shall be presumed to have been caused by the Builder, or its contractors, subcontractors, employees, or agents, unless the Builder conclusively proves that the damage was caused by a third party or as the result of a design or construction defect in the original construction by Developer as determined by agreement of the parties or as determined in a legal proceeding pursuant to the Expedited Dispute procedure in Section 7, below.
