City surveyor's time to provide vault locations and elevations and any other
survey that may be required to locate and place Comcast facilities.

Contractor liable to Comcast for any additional costs incurred by Comcast
hereunder. "Additional costs" shall mean all reasonable costs incurred by the
parties beyond the price included in the bid accepted by the City. Comcast

any additional costs, from any and all amounts due or to become due the
Contractor.

City's Contractor to the City. The City shall submit this to the Contractor,

notify Comcast of this estimated price. Comcast shall have twenty four (24)
