On or about February 7, 1989, the CITY entered into an engineering contract with MWA for certain engineering and design services related to the Project (the "Engineering Contract"). On•or about November 1, 1993, the CITY entered into a construction contract with PRO to perform certain construction work at the Project in accordance with the plans and specifications prepared by MWA (the "Construction Contract"). In a general sense, the scope of work mentioned in the Construction Contract included the removal and replacement. of portions of the wood framing structure .supporting the reservoir roof, the removal of the old metal roof, the installation of a new Vangard aluminum roof manufactured by REYNOLDS, the construction of a new concrete liner in the reservoir and the L9 construction of a new pumping station adjacent to the reservoir.

We understood the limitations of the existing constraction and the environment that the structure is exposed to. During this review, we consulted with the Technical Department of our fastener supplier. After careful considerations it was agreed that this project was technically sound. Reviewing the specifications and re -calculating the fastener loading for the BondCote membrane, it is still my belief that the proposed system will perform as expected. As stated in a previous letter, Bondcote shall issue the Ten Year Standard Warranty, upon successful completion, passing the final inspection and meeting all Bondcote requirements. The assembly for this installation shall be: 1. Existing Aluminum Deck 2. 6 mil Polyethylene film with a minimum 2 inch overlap, taped. All penetrations shall also be scaled with tho 6.m1l poly film and tape. 3. V. inch. minimum exterior grade plywood fastened to the deck with a minimum of four fasteners par board. The first course of plywood, at the perimeter, shall have a minimum of six. fasteners per board. There shall bean 1/8 inch gap between the boards of plywood. 4. New Bondcote membrane to be installed perpendicular to the plywood, and shall.be fastened at a maxirmum'of eight inches on center. Please call me at 800-368-2160, if I may be of any assistance.

Box .190 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Attention: Mr. Les M. Jones II Director of Public Works Subject. Proposed Roofing Fix - Peck Reservoir Gentlemen: Ashok K. Dhingra Vice President As requested by the City, the following are Montgomery Watson's comments regarding the proposed fix. The proposed plywood layer over the existing aluminum roof panels is a different system than the built up roofing over the plywood proposed by the contractor in the RFI Nos. 1 and 3. Therefore, the comments in response to RE Nos. 1 and 3 do not apply. 5 The proposed plywood system on top of a visqueen layer over the metal deck along with BondCote on top of the plywood renders the plywood panel to be sandwiched between the plastic material on each side. In our opinion, this system offers a better alternative to the Isoboard and the Polystyrene Systems which were proposed earlier and is suitable for use in this application. The expected life of this plywood framing system is easily up to ten years with routine maintenance. A calculation sheet, showing that the existing system is capable of supporting the weight of the proposed plywood system, is attached. Very truly yours, � ,� Ashok K.

The repair to the roofing system is also mentioned in Side Letters from BondCote Roofing System (Exhibit 15) and Montgomery Watson (Exhibit 16). Ms. Deborah DeBow May 19, 1998 Page 3 As I mentioned in our previous discussions, Pro Contracting Corp ("Pro") and Anning Johnson Company ("Anning Johnson") have 20 days from the Closing to mobilize and begin work. Thereafter, Pro and Anning Johnson have 105 days to complete the contemplated work. These time periods started on Monday, May 18, 1998. Prior to commencing work on the roofing system I have asked counsel for Anning Johnson to provide the following documents: 1. The layout drawing for the "walk pads" on the roof, 2. A Certificate of Insurance for the requisite insurance; and 3. A sample of the BondCote material. I have asked counsel for Anning Johnson to direct this information to Eric at the above address. Finally, this is to reemphasize that City has an option to purchase an additional guaranty on the roofing system. This guaranty requires: (i) written notice to AJ; (ii) an additional payment of $10,000.00; and (iii) the execution of the Maintenance Contract.

Box 190 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Attention: Mr. Les M. Jones II Director of Public Works Subject: Proposed Roofing Fix - Peck Reservoir Gentlemen: 0 Ashok K_ Dhingra Vice President As requested by the City, the following are Montgomery Watson's comments regarding the proposed fix. The proposed plywood layer over the existing aluminum roof panels is a different system than the built up roofing over the plywood proposed by the contractor in the RFI Nos. 1 and 3. Therefore, the comments in response to RFI Nos. 1 and 3 do not apply. The proposed plywood system on top of a visqueen layer over the metal deck along with BondCote on top of the plywood renders the plywood panel to be sandwiched between the plastic material on each side. In our opinion, this system offers a better alternative to the Isoboard and the Polystyrene Systems which were proposed earlier and is suitable for use in this application. The expected life of this plywood framing system is easily up to ten years with routine maintenance. A calculation sheet, showing that the existing system is capable of supporting the weight of the proposed plywood system, is attached. Very truly yours, Ashok K.

A list of exhibits to the agreement is attached for reference, as the specific items will remain confidential pending Council approval. Additionally, although the contractor, subcontractors and the design engineer are funding the majority of the cost of repairs, it is necessary for Council to take the following action so that the City can complete certain tasks before the reservoir can be put back into operation. • Transfer the sum of $66,014 from Purchase Order No. 218877 (between the City and Montgomery Watson Americas, Inc.) to Purchase Order No. 214554 (between the City and Pro Contracting.)

The CITY was and is the owner of the Project. On or about February 7, 1989, the CITY entered into an engineering contract with MWA for certain engineering and design services related to the Project (the "Engineering Contract"). On or about November 1, 1993, the CITY entered into a construction contract with PRO to perform certain construction work at the Project in accordance with the plans and specifications prepared by MWA (the "Construction Contract"). In a general sense, the scope of work mentioned in the Construction Contract included the removal and replacement of portions of the wood framing structure supporting the reservoir roof, the removal of the old metal roof, the installation of a new Vangard aluminum roof manufactured by REYNOLDS, the construction of a new concrete liner in the reservoir and the 1 construction of a new pumping station adjacent to the reservoir. RELIANCE INSURANCE COMPANY ("RELIANCE") was the surety on the public works payment and performance bonds provided by PRO.

During the course of construction of the Project, certain disputes arose between CITY, MWA, PRO, AJ, KETTERING, CMI and ACE concerning, among other things, the design developed by MWA, the construction work performed by PRO and its subcontractors and. CITY's administration of the Project. As a result of these disputes, CITY initiated an action in the Superior Court for the State of California to enforce its claims against MWA, PRO, RELIANCE and CMI. Thereafter, PRO filed a cross -complaint against CITY, MWA, AJ and KETTERING; MWA filed a cross - complaint against PRO, CITY, CMI, AJ and REYNOLDS; AJ filed a cross -complaint against CITY, MWA, PRO and RELIANCE; KETTERING filed a cross -complaint against MWA, PRO, 2 ` i • CM, CITY, AJ and ACE; REYNOLDS =filed a cross -complaint against CITY and CAB. CMI filed a cross -complaint against MWA, PRO, KETTERING, CITY, AJ and REYNOLDS. This action has been identified as Case No. 765940 (hereinafter the "Pending Action").
