complete architectural, civil, structural and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing
engineering design through drawings and specifications for the architectural design and
civil, structural and mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineering design, systems and
equipment (collectively, the “Design Documents”) for the Home. Nothing contained in
the Design Documents shall create a contractual relationship between Owner and any
third party; however, it is understood and agreed that Owner is an intended third-party
beneficiary of the Design Documents. Builder shall be responsible to Owner for the acts
or omissions of the architect, engineers, and others acting by, through or under Builder.

in conjunction with the Orientation (as defined in § 12.3 below), with at least five (5)
days’ Notice. Builder shall provide copies of invoices and receipts for expenditures
related to Allowances on reasonable Notice.
Purchaser shall select Allowance items within five (5) days after Notice of the request

this Contract, to: (a) suspend construction activities under § 8.3 below; (b) make the
selection within the Allowance budget and proceed with the construction of the Home;
and/or (c) continue those portions of the Work that are unaffected by the required
selections.

but not limited to the proposed Declaration of Covenants, Conditions, Restrictions and

Builder agrees to provide to Purchaser at or before Closing a copy of the final inspection
letter(s) and/or report(s) Builder has received from the Engineer who prepared the Plans
and Specifications and inspected the Work.
If Builder has not commenced construction before the expiration of ninety (90) days after
the execution of this Contract, Purchaser shall have the option to terminate this Contract
upon Notice and receive a refund of all sums paid to Builder up to and including the date
of termination. Purchaser’s Notice of termination must be delivered to Builder before
construction of the Home commences, at which time the Purchaser’s termination option
specified in the preceding sentence shall expire.
11. Section 9.6 or any other provision allocating the risk of concealed conditions and
changed circumstances to Purchaser shall be deleted.
The Purchaser’s indemnification of Builder shall not apply to Builder’s gross negligence
or wilful misconduct.
If, however, it will be unreasonably expensive and time consuming to correct a minor
cosmetic imperfection, and such imperfection does not satisfy the standards of
performance prescribed in the Limited Warranty, then Purchaser shall be entitled an
equitable reduction of the Purchase Price.
