The successful Contractor may be required to furnish Bonds for "Performance" and "Materials and Labour Payment" each equal to 100% of the Quoted sum, with a Guarantee Surety Company authorized by law to carry on business in the Province of Ontario and having an office in Ontario. The inability of a tenderer to supply requested bonds shall result in a rejection of the tender.

4. This Contractor’s quote is to continue open to acceptance until the Contract is executed or for a

period of thirty (30) days commencing from the Date of Closing of Quotations, whichever event first occurs and that the Owner may, at any time within that period, accept this Quote whether any other Quote has been previously accepted or not.

The decision of the Director of Operations is to be final as to the nature and cause of such imperfections and the necessity for remedying same. Should the Contractor fail to comply with the directions of the Director of Operations, the Director of Operations may, after giving the Contractor twenty-four (24) hours written notice to perform the necessary work, and the cost thereof may be deducted from the Contractor or his Surety jointly or severally in any court of competent jurisdiction as a debt due to the Owner.

The parties hereto agree that the Contractor will pay to the Owner a minimum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) for Liquidated Damages for each and every calendar day's delay in finishing the Work in excess of the dates of completion prescribed.

In addition to the $500 per day Liquidated Damages charge, the Contractor shall pay to the Owner in respect of additional site supervision, office supervision and administration caused by the delay in finishing the Work in excess of the completion dates prescribed.

The Owner may deduct any amount due under this paragraph from any monies that may be due or payable to the Contractor on any account whatsoever. The Liquidated Damages payable under this paragraph are in addition to and without prejudice to any other remedy, action or other alternative that may be available to the Owner.

11. Measurement for payment will be as specified on the Schedule of Items & Prices. 12. The lowest or any quotation will not necessarily be accepted. The Owner reserves the right, in its

absolute discretion, to reject any or all Tenders or to award the contract to other than the Tenderer submitting the lowest Tender, provided that Council, in its sole and absolute discretion, decides that it is in the best interest of The Corporation of the Town of Midland to do so.

The failure or refusal of a Tenderer to comply with such a request may result in the rejection of its Tender.

The above criteria are not necessarily listed in the order of their importance to the Town. 13. The selected Contractor will be requested to enter into the agreement as per Appendix A. 14. The Contractor shall ensure that all employees and sub-contractors employed under this contract are
