I agree that reconstruction shall be considered complete when restorable structural materials have been returned to a pre -loss condition. I authorize the Company to enter the Property, supply all materials and perform all necessary labor to provide all authorized Work. I also agree to allow the Company to remove affected materials, as necessary, to achieve the goals as outlined in the written plan. I understand that should I decide to decline service or to follow the Company's recommended procedures, estimate, or plan that I may ask them to stop, but that I will be responsible for payment for all services rendered and any costs the Company incurs as a result of this decision. I further agree to make arrangements for completion of the job without cost or penalty to the Company and to release, defend, and hold the Company harmless as a result of my decision. In addition, in the absence of intentional wrongful acts or wrongful failures to act, I waive the right to bring suit against the Company, its owners, agents, and employees and agree to release them from all liability, indemnify and hold them harmless, and agree to defend them if suit is brought by any interested party.

Completion of Work: The Company will diligently pursue substantial completion of the Work (the time at which the affected area may be used for its intended purpose) but shall not be held liable for delays due to late deliveries, weather, restricted access to the Property or any other conditions beyond the Company's direct control. Effect of Abnormal Water: I understand that uncontrolled water indoors is abnormal and may cause several problems that should be addressed: (1) Water may migrate into other areas of the Property so it is highly recommended that all potentially affected areas be evaluated; (2) Materials swell as they absorb moisture and rapid drying will help reduce permanent damage; and (3) High humidity from evaporation can damage materials if allowed to continue and these problems get worse the longer materials remain wet. Reducing microbe growth: I understand that the following steps can be taken to reduce microbe growth: (1) Water can be removed as quickly and as thoroughly as possible; (2) Rapid air -movement can increase the rate of evaporation; (3) The relative humidity indoors can be reduced; and (4) If necessary, antimicrobials may be applied. Drying Equipment: I understand that drying equipment will be installed. I will not interfere with this equipment, move it, turn it off, or leave the windows open without first notifying the Company. I will also minimize my entry into affected areas and will use extreme care when doing so. I have been informed that it may take several days to complete the drying process. I understand that I am responsible for loss or theft of drying equipment while in my care and will take necessary precautions to secure and protect this equipment for service rendered. Carpet cleaning and Other Repairs: I understand that the Company does not schedule carpet cleaning or other repairs until drying is complete. Hazardous Substances: I agree to inform the Company, prior to the commencement of work, of any known hazardous substances or unsafe conditions within the Property. I understand that the Company, upon or after encountering such conditions, may terminate this Agreement and I agree to pay for services to date, including costs incurred related to the discovery, testing and disposal of such hazardous or unsafe substances. I agree to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from any and all claims by any person arising from the existence of and/or exposure to hazardous substances or unsafe conditions. 4 ,, City of Wheat Ridge x.
