<br />A. Costs Included., The term Cost of the Work
<br />means the sum of all costs necessarily incurred and
<br />paid by CONTRACTOR in the proper performance of
<br />the Work. When the value of any Work covered by a
<br />Change Order or when a Claim for an adjustment in
<br />Contract Price is determined on the basis of Cost of
<br />the Work, the costs to be reimbursed to
<br />r CONTRACTOR will be only those additional or
<br />incremental costs required because of the change in
<br />the Work or because of the event giving rise to the
<br />Claim. Except as otherwise may be agreed to in
<br />writing by OWNER, such costs shall be in amounts no
<br />higher than those prevailing in the locality of the
<br />Project, shall include only the following items, and
<br />AW shall not include any of the costs itemized in para-
<br />graph 11.01.8.
<br />1. Payroll costs for employees in the
<br />+� direct employ of CONTRACTOR in the perfor-
<br />mance of the Work under schedules of job
<br />classifications agreed upon by OWNER and
<br />r CONTRACTOR. Such employees shall
<br />include without limitation superintendents,
<br />foremen, and other personnel employed full
<br />time at the Site. Payroll costs for employees
<br />r. not employed full time on the Work shall be
<br />apportioned on the basis of their time spent on
<br />the Work. Payroll costs shall include, but not
<br />be limited to, salaries and wages plus the cost
<br />of fringe benefits, which shall include social
<br />security contributions, unemployment, excise,
<br />and payroll taxes, workers' compensation,
<br />health and retirement benefits, bonuses, sick
<br />leave, vacation and holiday pay applicable

<br />2. Cost of all materials and equipment
<br />furnished and incorporated in the Work, includ-
<br />ing costs of transportation and storage thereof,
<br />and Suppliers' field services required in
<br />connection therewith. All cash discounts shall
<br />accrue to CONTRACTOR unless OWNER
<br />deposits funds with CONTRACTOR with which
<br />to make payments, in which case the cash
<br />discounts shall accrue to OWNER. All trade
<br />discounts, rebates and refunds and returns
<br />from sale of surplus materials and equipment
<br />shall accrue to OWNER, and CONTRACTOR
<br />shall make provisions so that they may be
<br />obtained.
<br />3. Payments made by CONTRACTOR
<br />to Subcontractors for Work performed by
<br />Subcontractors. If required by OWNER, CON-
<br />TRACTOR shall obtain competitive bids from
<br />subcontractors acceptable to OWNER and
<br />CONTRACTOR and shall deliver such bids to
<br />OWNER, who will then determine, with the
<br />advice of ENGINEER, which bids, if any, will be
<br />acceptable. If any subcontract provides that
<br />the Subcontractor is to be paid on the basis of
<br />Cost of the Work plus a fee, the
<br />Subcontractor's Cost of the Work and fee shall
<br />be determined in the same manner as
<br />CONTRACTOR's Cost of the Work and fee as
<br />provided in this paragraph 11.01.
<br />4. Costs of special consultants
<br />(including but not limited to engineers,
<br />architects, testing laboratories, surveyors,
<br />attorneys, and accountants) employed for
<br />services specifically related to the Work.
<br />5. Supplemental costs including the
<br />following:
<br />a. The proportion of necessary trans-
<br />portation, travel, and subsistence expenses of
<br />CONTRACTOR's employees incurred in dis-
<br />charge of duties connected with the Work.
<br />b. Cost, including transportation and
<br />maintenance, of all materials, supplies, equip-
<br />ment, machinery, appliances, office, and
<br />temporary facilities at the Site, and hand tools
<br />not owned by the workers, which are
<br />consumed in the performance of the Work, and
<br />cost, less market value, of such items used but
<br />not consumed which remain the property of
<br />CONTRACTOR.
<br />C. Rentals of all construction equip-
<br />ment and machinery, and the parts thereof
<br />whether rented from CONTRACTOR or others
<br />in accordance with rental agreements
<br />approved by OWNER with the advice of
<br />ENGINEER, and the costs of transportation,
<br />loading, unloading, assembly, dismantling, and
<br />removal thereof. All such costs shall be in
<br />accordance with the terms of said rental agree-
<br />ments. The rental of any such equipment, ma-
<br />chinery, or parts shall cease when the use
<br />thereof is no longer necessary for the Work.
