§ 4.2 Time limits stated in the Contract Documents are of the essence. The Work to be performed under this Part 2 Agreement shall commence upon receipt of a notice to proceed unless otherwise agreed and, subject to authorized Modifications, Substantial Completion shall be achieved on or before the date established in Article 14. § 4.3 Substantial Completion is the stage in the progress of the Work when the Work or designated portion thereof is sufficiently complete in accordance with the Contract Documents so the Owner can occupy or utilize the Work for its intended use. § 4.4 Based on the Design/Builder's Proposal, a construction schedule shall be provided consistent with Section 4.2 above. § 4.5 If the Design/Builder is delayed at any time in the progress of the Work by an act or neglect of the Owner, Owner's employees, or separate contractors employed by the Owner, or by changes ordered in the Work, or by labor disputes, fire, unusual delay in deliveries, adverse weather conditions not reasonably anticipatable, unavoidable casualties or other causes beyond the Design/Builder's control, or by delay authorized by the Owner pending arbitration, or by other causes which the Owner and Design/Builder agree may justify delay, then the Contract Time shall be reasonably extended by Change Order.
