Warranty Obligations
(a) Project Co represents, warrants and covenants that:
(i) the Works shall conform to the requirements of this Project Agreement, Good Industry Practice, Applicable Law and all professional engineering principles generally accepted as standards of the industry in the Province of Ontario;
(ii) the Works shall be free of defects, including design defects, errors and omissions; and
(iii) materials and equipment shall be of good quality and in compliance with this Project Agreement.
(b) During the Warranty Period and subject to Section 11.15(c), Project Co shall promptly, at its sole cost and expense, correct and Make Good all Construction Defects arising in respect of the Works. For greater certainty, Project Co is required to correct and Make Good Construction Defects related to any Product during the applicable Warranty Period despite Project Co having obtained on Contracting Authority’s behalf industry- standard or other equipment warranties in accordance with Section 11.15(f). For all work to correct Construction Defects, the applicable Warranty Period shall be extended for a further two years from the date of the last work completed in respect of such corrective Works. For clarity, any extension of a Warranty Period for the purposes of a correction shall only apply to the relevant Construction Defect and not the Works as a whole.
(c) In addition to the obligation to correct and Make Good Construction Defects during the Warranty Period, Project Co shall at its expense correct and Make Good any Construction Defects that could not reasonably have been ascertained by a competent person in accordance with Good Industry Practice during a visual inspection of the Works (“Construction Latent Defect”), provided Contracting Authority gives Project Co written Notice of the Construction Latent Defect within the time frame applicable to such Construction Latent Defect pursuant to the Limitations Act, 2002 (Ontario).
(d) The warranties described in this Section 11.15 shall cover labour and material, including, the costs of removal and replacement of covering materials. The warranties shall not limit extended warranties on any Product or item of equipment called for elsewhere in the Output Specifications or otherwise provided by any manufacturer of such Product or equipment.
(e) If Project Co fails to correct and Make Good any Construction Defects or Construction Latent Defects in accordance with Sections 11.15(b) and 11.15(c) and in the time period specified in Section 11.16(a) or Section 11.16(b), as applicable, without prejudice to any other right or remedy Contracting Authority may have, Contracting Authority may correct such Construction Defects or Construction Latent Defects at Project Co’s sole cost and expense.
(f) Project Co shall obtain warranties from the manufacturers of each of the Products for the duration(s) and in accordance with the applicable requirements specified in the Output Specifications in the name of and to the benefit of both Project Co and Contracting Authority. Where, in respect of a Product warranty, the Output Specifications do not specify a specific duration and/or other requirements, Project Co shall obtain industry-standard warranties from the applicable manufacturers in the name of and to the benefit of Project Co and Contracting Authority which shall extend no less than two years from the Substantial Completion Date. Each Product warranty shall be issued by the applicable manufacturer and delivered to Project Co no later than 30 days prior to the Substantial Completion Date. Project Co shall ensure that each Product warranty, including any Product warranty extended under this Section 11.15(f), is fully assigned to Contracting Authority, at no cost or expense to Contracting Authority, at the end of the Warranty Period, as such Warranty Period may be extended in accordance with Section 11.15(b).
