reasonable efforts to complete the

year period following the completion of Services, it is shown that there is an error in
the Services solely as a result of ATS's failure to meet these standards, ATS shall re -
perform such substandard Services as may be necessary to remedy such error at no
cost to CLIENT. Since ATS has no control over local conditions, the cost of labor and
materials, or over competitive bidding and market conditions, ATS does not
guarantee the accuracy of any construction cost estimates as compared to
contractor's bids or the actual cost to the CLIENT. ATS makes no other warranties
either express or implied and the parties' rights, liabilities, responsibilities and
remedies with respect to the quality of Services, including claims alleging negligence,
breach of warranty and breach of contract, shall be exclusively those set forth herein.

methods of determining their prices. Accordingly, it is acknowledged and understood
that any estimates, projections or opinions of probable project costs provided herein

ATS's reasonable judgment as a qualified professional. ATS does not guaranty that
proposals, bids or actual project costs will not vary from the opinions of probable
costs prepared by ATS, and the CLIENT waives any and all claims that it may have
against ATS as a result of any such variance.

or omissions of CLIENT's construction contractors, subcontractors or any persons or
entities performing any of the construction work, or for the failure of any of them to
carry out construction work under contracts with CLIENT.

CLIENT in CLIENT's obligations or responsibilities as a generator in the storage,
transportation, treatment or disposal of any pre-existing contamination. CLIENT shall

CLIENT agrees that ATS's liability for the act, error or omission in its performance of services
under this Agreement shall in no event exceed the amount of the total compensation received
by ATS. It is intended by the parties to this Agreement that ATS's services in connection with
the project anticipated herein shall not subject ATS's individual employees, officers, or
directors to any personal legal exposure for the risks associated with this project.

be settled through negotiation, then ATS and the CLIENT agree to submit the dispute to
mediation. In the event ATS or the CLIENT desires to mediate any dispute, that party shall
notify the other party in writing of the dispute desired to be mediated. If the parties are unable
to resolve their differences within 10 days of the receipt of such notice, such dispute shall be
submitted for mediation in accordance with the procedures and rules of the American
Arbitration Association (or any successor organization) then in effect. The deadline for
submitting the dispute to mediation can be changed if the parties mutually agree in writing to
extend the time between receipt of notice and submission to mediation. The expenses of the
mediator shall be shared 50 percent by ATS and 50 percent by the CLIENT. This
requirement to seek mediation shall be a condition required before filing an action at law or in
equity. However, prior to or during the negotiations or the mediation either party may initiate
