C. The total amount to be paid by the owner for the performance (subject to additions and deductions by written change order) shall not exceed the total specified in the Proposal.
D. Progress payments will be made according to the payment schedule. Equipment will not be ordered until the equipment deposit has been submitted. These times are subject to the timing of the construction and the lead times required for the ordered equipment to be delivered.

H. All drawings and documentation are contingent on retainer. Since preparing a proposal requires system design & engineering by a professional Systems Integrator, only one version of the proposal will be prepared without a retainer.

This Design Retainer will cover up to three additional designs and proposals, as well as one block-diagram drawing of the system.

The retainer covers design & engineering time and is non-refundable.
I. Contractor reserves the right to replace proposed models in the case of obsolescence, discontinuation or unavailability with a comparable model of equal or greater value upon customer approval. Contractor will not be held responsible or liable in any way for any said product's obsolescence, discontinuation or unavailability.
