Paramount will provide the roofing services stated in the estimate (collectively, the “services”).

Paramount will provide all labor and materials to perform the services as described in the estimate. The roofing work will be performed Monday through Saturday, holidays excluded, unless the parties agree otherwise. Paramount reserves the right to substitute manufacturers of materials based on availability and price where the materials are comparable.

Customer understands that weather conditions are volatile and may change unexpectedly and quickly. Services will be conducted only if weather conditions appear likely to allow for the work to be performed safely and without damage. Any delay or stop in work due to weather is at the sole discretion of Paramount Roofing. Paramount Roofing will notify the customer as soon as possible of any schedule changes caused by weather conditions. Paramount will, to the extent practicable, attempt to stop work and protect the work in place so as to avoid damage to the property from adverse weather, but the parties understand that adverse weather is an Act of God and may not be preventable.

The customer authorizes Paramount to commence and complete the usual and customary staging and construction on the worksite as may be required in Paramount's judgment to complete the roofing work.

The customer acknowledges that the services can cause dust and debris to accumulate inside the building. The customer is responsible for preparing the interior of the building for the services. This preparation includes but is not limited to removal and storage of hanging items, breakable items, and any other items that the customer considers fragile, at-risk, or likely to be impacted by the services. The customer is solely responsible for any and all damage to personal property within the building. The customer is solely responsible for the removal of dust, debris, and cleaning of the interior of the building to be done at the customer's discretion.

No later than midnight, 72 hours following signature.

Payments shall be made to Paramount Roofing LLC, 1380 Rio Rancho Blvd SE #410, Rio Rancho, New Mexico, 87124. A 50% deposit is due to schedule the project and order materials, with the remaining 50% due on completion. Paramount accepts cash, check, and Wisetack financing; we do not accept credit cards. Services are complete upon final inspection and confirmation of no deficiencies by Paramount's project manager. In the event any deficiency is identified by Paramount's project manager, such deficiency will be corrected and reinspected. The final invoice shall be sent to the customer when services are complete, at which time payment in full of any remaining balance is immediately due. If payment in full is not received within thirty (30) days of the final invoice, Paramount Roofing may place a mechanic's lien on the property. Any invoice not paid when due will have interest added to and payable on all overdue amounts at 10% per annum or the maximum percentage allowed under applicable laws, whichever is less. The customer shall pay all costs of collection, including reasonable attorney fees. In addition to any other right or remedy provided by law, if the customer fails to pay for the services when due, Paramount has the option to treat such failure to pay as a material breach of this contract and may cancel this contract and seek legal remedies. The customer will be charged $40.00 for any returned checks.

Paramount shall apply for and obtain permits and regulatory approvals as required by local municipal/county government; the cost will be included as part of Paramount's payment under this contract.

Paramount will maintain general liability and workers' compensation under the state's minimum requirements throughout the services. Paramount will provide the customer with proof of insurance upon the request of the customer.

The customer may make changes to the work scope from time to time during this contract term. Additional and changed work will be performed by Paramount as requested by customer and will present customer with a separate invoice for the additional or changed work once the costs are known, unless customer in writing requires that changed or additional work be specifically reduced to a change order prior to performing the work. Change orders, whether written or verbally directed will become part of this contract. The customer agrees to pay any increase in the roofing work cost due to the change order. In the event Paramount needs to modify, change, or alter the work in order to comply with building codes or manufacturer installation instructions, Paramount has full authority to make all required changes, at its discretion and without obtaining approval from the customer. Any such necessary change orders effectuated at the discretion of Paramount will be conveyed in writing to the customer and shall be paid by customer in order that the work complies with applicable building codes.

The customer will allow free access to work areas for workers and vehicles and allow sufficient space to store materials and debris during the work. Customer will keep all driveways clear for the movement of vehicles during work hours. Paramount will make reasonable efforts to protect driveways, lawns, shrubs, and other vegetation.

Paramount and its employees, agents, or representatives will not any time or in any manner, either directly or indirectly, use for the personal benefit of Paramount, or divulge, disclose, or communicate in any way, any information that is proprietary to the customer. Paramount and its employees, agents, and representatives will protect such information and treat it as strictly confidential. This provision will continue to be effective after the termination of this contract. Paramount will return the customer all records, notes, documentation, and other items that were used, created, or controlled by Paramount during the contract upon the termination of this contract.

Paramount agrees to indemnify and hold the customer harmless from all claims, losses, expenses, fees, including attorney fees, costs, and judgments that may be asserted against the customer resulting from the acts or omissions of Paramount and Paramount's employees, agents, or representatives.

Paramount shall provide its services and meet its obligations under this contract in a timely and professional manner, using knowledge and recommendations for performing the services that meet generally accepted standards in Paramount's communities and region and will provide a standard of care equal or superior to care used by contractors similar to Paramount on similar projects. Paramount's warranty shall be limited to defects in quality within the scope of the work performed by Paramount and which arises from and becomes known within the following periods – Maintenance (with plastic cement 2 years, with silicone mastic 4 years), Silicon coating (10 years), Tile systems (10 years), Asphalt shingles (10 years), TPO system (10 years). All warranty periods run from the date of completion of the services and are not extended by any subsequent repairs or corrections. Paramount agrees to repair any roofing leaks caused by Paramount's defective performance of the services under customarily anticipated weather conditions. Ice damming is not a customarily anticipated condition. Damage done to the roof system through no fault of Paramount is not warranted by Paramount. Performance of work on the roof or modification of the roof system by other contractors voids any warranty offered by Paramount. Paramount assigns to the customer all warranties on materials as provided by the manufacturer of such materials. Paramount's warranty is voided excessive and or unreasonable use of the roof, placing items on the roof, or allowing animals on the roof. Paramount explicitly excludes from its warranty any damage caused by customer misuse or abuse of the roofing system.

In the event, the customer has any work done to the work or which requires access to the roof, such as HVAC, satellite, solar panels, and the like, the customer is required to notify Paramount in writing when the work is performed and schedule an inspection by Paramount to identify any repairs that may be necessitated as a result of the work by the third party. Paramount will provide an estimate for the required repair of any damage resulting from work performed by the third party. Failure to repair damage caused by the third-party voids the warranty. Any repairs made to the roof by any person or entity, other than Paramount voids Paramount's labor warranty.

The customer is required to mitigate any and all damage caused by or resulting from a roof leak. In the event the customer needs to submit a warranty claim for any roof leaks, the customer is required to report the leak to Paramount within twenty-four (24) hours of first notice of the leak. Paramount will repair any timely reported roof leak and interior damage caused by the roof leak. Failure to promptly inform Paramount of a warranty claim and allow Paramount an opportunity to cure will void the warranty and release Paramount from any liability for such loss. Any and all claims for damage caused by or resulting from the services are limited to the area within the roofline.

Upon completing the roofing services, Paramount shall see to it that the customer's property is restored to the condition that it was in before Paramount completed any work, to the extent reasonably possible within the scope of roofing services performed. The customer acknowledges that certain roofing services may necessarily disturb, damage, or affect adjacent or connected building components that are outside the scope of roofing work, including but not limited to stucco, siding, fascia, paint, drywall, trim, HVAC components, antennae, satellite dishes, and other items attached to or integrated with the roof system or parapet walls. Such incidental disturbance is a foreseeable consequence of the authorized roofing work and is not a deficiency in Paramount's services. Paramount will make reasonable efforts to minimize incidental disturbance to adjacent components. However, Paramount is not responsible for the repair, restoration, or replacement of any adjacent building component that is necessarily disturbed as a result of performing the contracted roofing services, unless such repair is expressly included in the written estimate. If the customer desires that Paramount repair or restore any adjacent component affected by the roofing work, Paramount will provide a separate estimate for that work upon request. Any such additional work will be performed under a separate change order and is not included in the original contract price.

In the event that Paramount's performance of the services is stopped by acts outside the control of Paramount, including requests by customer to stop work, other than temporary work stoppages due to adverse weather, Paramount shall be entitled to invoice for the work performed to the date of work stoppage and shall be paid therefore. The balance of the work shall be completed once the condition stopping work is resolved and the balance of the work shall be performed by Paramount and paid for by customer in accordance with this agreement.

The occurrence of any of the following shall constitute a material default under this contract:

• The failure to make a required payment when due. • The insolvency or bankruptcy of either party. • The subjection of any of either party's property to any levy, seizure, general assignment for the benefit of creditors, application, or sale for or by any creditor or government agency. • The failure to make available or deliver the services in the time and manner provided for this contract.

In addition to any other rights, a party may have available according to law, if a party defaults by failing to perform any provision, term, or condition under this contract (including without limitation the failure to make a monetary payment when due), the other party may terminate the agreement by providing written notice to the defaulting party. This notice shall describe in sufficient detail the nature of the default. The party receiving such information shall have 30 days from the effective date of such notice to cure the default(s). Unless waived by a party providing notice, the failure to cure the default(s) within such period results in the automatic termination of this contract.

If the performance of this contract or any obligation under this contract is prevented, restricted, or interfered with by causes beyond either party's reasonable control (“force majeure”), and if the party unable to carry out its obligations gives the other party prompt written notice of such event, then the responsibilities of the party invoking this provision shall be suspended to the extent necessary by such event. The term force majeure shall include, without limitation, acts of God, fire, explosion, vandalism, storm, or other similar occurrences, order, or acts of military or civil authority. The parties shall proceed to perform with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed or ceased. An act or omission shall be deemed within the reasonable control of a party if committed, omitted, or caused by such party or its employees, officers, agents, or affiliates.

Any controversies or disputes arising out of or relating to this contract shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's then-current commercial arbitration rules. The parties shall select a mutually agreeable arbitrator knowledgeable about this contract's subject matter. In the event the parties are unable to agree to such a selection, each party will select an arbitrator, and the two arbitrators, in turn, shall select a third arbitrator; all three arbitrators shall preside jointly over the matter. The arbitration shall occur at a reasonably convenient location for both parties or mutually agreed upon by both parties.

All documents, materials, and information in possession of each party that are in any way relevant to the dispute shall be made available to the other party for review and copying no later than 30 days after the notice of arbitration is served. The arbitrator(s) shall not have the authority to modify any provision of this contract or award punitive damages. The arbitrator(s) shall have the power to issue mandatory orders and restraint orders in connection with the decision in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to address statutory claims, including claims of lien. The arbitration agreement shall be specifically enforceable under the prevailing arbitration law. During the continuance of any arbitration proceedings, the parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations under this contract. The recording of a lien or any foreclosure proceeding shall not constitute a waiver of this arbitration clause and such action shall be referrable to arbitration for determination in accordance with this clause.

This contract contains the whole agreement between parties. There are no other promises or conditions in any additional agreement, whether signed or oral, concerning this subject matter. This contract supersedes any prior written or oral agreements between the parties.

If any provision of this contract shall be held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions will be deemed valid and enforceable. If a court finds that any provision of this contract is invalid or unenforceable, but that by limiting such provision, it would become valid and enforceable, such conditions will be deemed to be written, construed, and enforced as so limited.

This contract may be amended or modified in writing if the writing is signed by the party obligated under the amendment.

This contract shall be construed under the laws of the state of New Mexico.

Any notice or communication required or permitted under this contract shall be sufficiently given if delivered in person or by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the address outlined in the opening paragraph, or to such other address as one party may have furnished to the other in writing.

The failure of either party to enforce this contract shall not be construed as a waiver or limitation of that party's right to subsequently enforce and compel strict compliance with every provision of this contract.

Paramount pays a $250 referral reward to any person who refers a new customer that completes a full roof replacement (reroof) with Paramount. Inspections, repairs, and maintenance work do not qualify. The reward is arranged after the referred customer's reroof is complete and closed out — not at the time of the estimate or contract signing.

There is no cap on the number of referrals a person may submit. Paramount may modify or discontinue the referral program at any time without notice. This referral program is a goodwill arrangement and does not create any contractual obligation beyond what is stated here.

This agreement shall be signed by the customer and Paramount Roofing and effective as of the date first written above.
