Where there is no Performance Bond or m case the surety should fail to commence compliance with the notice for completion hereinabove provided for within ten (10) days after the service of such notice, then the OWNER may provide for completion of the work in either of the following elective manners: (a) The OWNER may thereupon employ such force of workers and use such machinery, equipment tools materials and supplies as the OWNER may deem necessary to complete the work and charge the expense of such labor, machinery, equipment, tools, matenals and supphes to said CONTRACTOR, and expense so charged shall be deducted and paid by the OWNER out of such momes as may be due or that may thereafter at any time become due to the CONTRACTOR under and by virtue of this Agreement.

The OWNER, prior to incumng an obligation to make payment hereunder, shall have such statement of completion attested to by the CONTRACTOR as accurate, and upon payment of the sum stated therein, the OWNER shall be entitled to full and final release of any claims or demands by the CONTRACTOR. In the event the statement of accounts shows that the cost to complete the work is less than that which would have been the cost to the OWNER had the work been completed by the CONTRACTOR under the terms of this Contract, or when the CONTRACTOR and/or his surety shall pay the balance shown to be due by them to the OWNER, then all machinery, equipment, tools or supplies left on the site of the work shall be turned over to the CONTRACTOR and/or his surety.
