6.4 OWNER may at any time, by written order, make changes within the general scope of the Agreement in the services of work to be performed. If ENGINEER believes that such a change justifies an increase in ENGINEER’S contract time or contract price required to perform the series under this Agreement it must assert such claim in writing within thirty (30) days of receipt of OWNER’S written order giving rise to the claim. No claim for adjustment in the contract time or contract price will be valid if not submitted in accordance with this paragraph.

6.6 If the commencement, prosecution or completion of the services under this Agreement, or of the construction of the Project is delayed by any act, omission, delay, neglect or default of ENGINEER, or anyone employed by ENGINEER, or by any damage or acts caused by the negligent acts or omission by ENGINEER, then ENGINEER shall be liable to OWNER for any and all costs, assessments, expense, liabilities or damages caused thereby, in accordance with Section 4.8.
6.7 ENGINEER shall not be responsible for any time delays in the Project, or in the performance of services under this Agreement, to the extent such delays are caused solely by any act, omission, neglect or default of OWNER or anyone employed by OWNER, or by the unreasonable delay of any review agency or utility, or for any delay or damage caused by fire or the combined action of workers and which are in no way chargeable, in whole or in part, to ENGINEER, or by any other conditions or circumstances beyond the control of ENGINEER, its employee, agent, or other persons for whose acts or omissions ENGINEER is responsible. In the event of such delay, ENGINEER shall be entitled to an adjustment in the schedules or agreed time limitations for the performance of services, and this Agreement shall be modified in writing accordingly. Any claim of ENGINEER for adjustment under this cause must be asserted in writing within thirty (30) days from the date of the occurrence of the event giving rise to the claim, unless OWNER grants a further period of time before the date of final payment to ENGINEER. The adjustment of time for the performance of services, as provided in this paragraph, shall be ENGINEER’s sole exclusive right, entitlement and remedy in the event of such delays, and ENGINEER shall have no claim against OWNER for adjustment for increase in costs of performance, or other damages occurred in connection therewith.
