PROJECT OFFICE LOCATION The Joint Venture project office will be located at the plant site, with a mobile satellite office located along the waterline route. FINANCIAL CONDITION CDM Smith and Haskell have each provided individual, separately sealed financials for the past 3 years and quarterly financial statements, certified by the financial officer, for the current year. BONDS AND INSURANCE Both Joint Venture firms have more than adequate insurance coverage to meet the contract requirements. Our principal insurance coverage includes: builder’s risk (project-specific), general liability, automobile liability, workers compensation, professional liability, and umbrella liability. Insurance certificates are provided in the sealed financials. We acknowledge the construction, payment, and performance bond requirements for the project. Both Joint Venture partners have aggregate bonding capacities of over $1 billion. CDM Smith’s construction division, CDM Constructors Inc., has a single project limit of $250,000,000 and currently has approximately 50 percent of their aggregate bonding program committed, leaving a current available balance of $500,000,000. Haskell has a single project limit of $150,000,000 and approximately 30 percent of their aggregate bonding program committed, leaving a current available balance of approximately $700,000,000. A letter from the surety docu- menting the bonding capacity of the Joint Venture is provided with the sealed financials. MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGES IN FINANCIAL POSITION CDM Smith and Haskell have no material historical, existing, or anticipated changes in financial position, including mergers, acquisitions, takeovers, joint ventures, bankruptcies, divestures, or any material changes in the mode of conducting business. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS AND JUDGEMENTS CDM Smith and Haskell have no pending or past (within 10 years) legal proceedings and judgments, or any contingent liability that could adversely affect the financial position or ability to perform contractual commit- ments to the Authority. Sworn statements from the general counsel of each firm are provided in our sealed financials. COMPLETION OF CONTRACTS CDM Smith and Haskell have not failed to complete any contract, nor have any of their contracts been termi- nated due to alleged poor performance or default within the past 10 years.

The Joint Venture is a partnership between CDM Smith and Haskell, two true design-build firms who share a commitment to working with our clients to develop innovative design and construction solutions. 3A.1 Design-Builder Our integrated design-build approach, illustrated in Figure 3A-1, provides the Authority with a seamless engineering-construction effort with early engagement of the construction management team during design development. This approach encourages continuous focus on project technical issues throughout the project life cycle and a true single-source point of contact and responsibility. Our Joint Venture team structure maxi- mizes the benefits that the design-build process offers the Authority by combining the design and construction elements of the team in one entity, as opposed to a contractor-led structure with the engineer as subconsultant. CDM Smith and Haskell are completely equitable partners with an equal stake in the project and a shared commitment to its success. As an integrated design-build team, both firms will be involved in both the design and construction. The Joint Venture members will share responsibility for the design and construction activities. 3A.2 Phase One & Phase Two Organization Figure 3A-1. Integration of the Authority and the Joint Venture The organizational charts we have provided for Phases One and Two in Figures 3A-2 and 3A-3 are the same, with the exception of highlighting individuals with involvement of 25 percent or greater during the respective phases. The fact that these charts are identical is intentional; the members of our integrated design-build team will remain consistent throughout the design and construction of the project. While some individuals will have greater involvement during one phase than another, all key personnel will be involved throughout both design and construction. Construction staff will be present at meetings related to design innovations and design team members will attend discussions on construction phasing. The design team will be provided with feedback from the construction team throughout the design; likewise, design personnel will weigh in on construction decisions where their input can provide value. We believe this is the CDM Smith/Haskell, A Joint Venture true value of design-build delivery, and we maximize the benefits of INTEGRATED DESIGN this arrangement in our projects. AND CONSTRUCTION Throughout both Phase One and Phase Two, the Authority will have the consistency of one key point-of-contact in Project Manager Peter As an integrated team, CDM Smith/Haskell, A Joint Venture will be Loomis. Peter will manage both stages of the project, as he has for the single point of accountability to the Authority. Our structure the DC Main Process Train design-build project, the design-build does not include a subcontract relationship between the design delivery of the Prince William County Service Authority’s H.L. and construction elements of the design-build entity.
