Lump Sum General Conditions Cost. The Contractor shall not be entitled to recover more than the amount set forth in the Project Information Section of this Agreement for the Cost of General Conditions (such amount, the “Lump Sum General Conditions Cost”). If, as a result of any Change Order(s) or Change Directive(s): (i) the Project durations extends 30 days or more beyond the Substantial Completion Date; and (ii) the Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Department that such additional Costs of General Conditions are reasonable and not due to any fault of the Contractor, its Subcontractors, materialmen, consultants or anyone making claims thereunder, the Contractor may request a Change Order to adjust the Lump Sum General Conditions Cost. To the extent the Contractor incurs Costs of General Conditions in excess of the Lump Sum General Conditions Cost, the Contractor shall not be entitled to reimbursement for such amounts unless the Department authorizes, in writing, an increase to the Lump Sum General Conditions Cost. Nonetheless, in such an event, if the Contractor exceeds the Lump Sum General Conditions Costs, the Contractor shall continue to be required to adequately staff the Project.
