In an effort to establish acceptable and unified construction and quality and
productivity standards, the Landlord strongly recommends that all union trades,
traditionally and customarily performing construction crafts be engaged to promote
project wide continuity.
•
This shall not serve as a limitation to a Tenant’s right to employ the most qualified
low bidder for a construction contract. However, Tenant shall take all necessary
action to avoid labor disputes and difficulties on the project and shall do all things to

avoid work stoppage or delay on account thereof, regardless of whether the impact is
to the Tenant, Landlord or other Tenants. In an event of work stoppage, Tenant will
cooperate with Landlord to remove the source of the work stoppage at Landlord’s
sole discretion so that the project shall be completed on schedule in a cost efficient
manner as initially contemplated.
•
Landlord reserves the right to halt Tenant construction should work disputes result in
picketing or other disruption to the business of the shopping center. In the event
such a shut down is necessary, work will be permitted to begin after work dispute
has been resolved.
